  • the closure according to the invention has further the advantage that when using spreading cap closures it is no longer necessary for the cap or the bottle ridge to be accurately dimensioned in order to ensure satisfactory closure. While previously the smallest deviation in this respect caused troublein the proper seating of the cap, with the present device the deviation may be considerable without the tight sealing of the closure being affected. On account of this independence of accurate dimensions it is, for example, possible to place spreading cap closures on crown cork bottles.
