Abstract
A closure cap which adjusts the delivery, through a discharge passage, of at least one non-compact product contained in a container, including: a closure member which also adjusts the delivery of the product, made of an elastic material, which can be mechanically deformed in at least two directions, this member having passing through it a bore for dispensing the product, a stationary element, and an element which is movable in translation with respect to the stationary element, the stationary element and the moving element defining the discharge passage, the closure member being sandwiched between the stationary element and the moving element, an actuating mechanisms for bringing about the translational displacement of the moving element towards the stationary element. This displacement leads to progressive compression of the closure member in such a way that the passage is progressively closed by an elastic deformation of the said material.
