Abstract

There is disclosed herein a flat top end closure (12) for a liquid carrying container, which includes two oppositely disposed, overlapped outer closure panels (40,42), one being longer than the other, and two oppositely disposed, three-segment fold-in panels (44,46), one (44) of which serves as the pour spout when opened. Each of the three-segment fold-in panels (44,46) includes a substantially triangular panel portion (76,82) defined by converging diagonal score lines (72, 74, 78, 80) extending from the upper edge of the tubular container body (14), and a pair of fold-back panels (84, 88, 96, 98) integrally connected to and folded between the substantially triangular panel portions (76, 82) and the respective adjacent outer closure panels. The shorter (40) of the outer closure panels includes a plurality of equally spaced triangular shaped tufts (70) formed on the free edge (60) thereof so as to be squeezed upon abutment of the shorter panel (40) against one (84) of one pair of fold-back panels (88, 84) in the closing process, to thereby fill any fluid leakage channels which may tend to remain therebetween after sealing.
