Abstract

The invention relates to a can top (1) for crimping onto a can body that, in its top surface (12), comprises a tongue (2) for forming a pouring opening along a slit line (3). The inventive can top is characterized in that it has, on its side pointing toward the interior of the can, a separate space (8) provided for accommodating solid, liquid or gaseous substances. Said space is formed by at least one flexible, however, essentially non-expandable, essentially gas-tight and liquid-tight wall (4, 4', 4'') and extends over a portion of the top surface (12) so that its lateral edge (10) crosses the slit line (3) at at least one point (11) in such a manner that, when opening the can, the portion of the tongue (2) moving toward the interior exerts a force onto the wall (4), by means of an opening is made for said space (8). The separate space can serve, for example, for accommodating food supplements and/or liquid or gaseous aromatics.
