The tear-off connector corresponds to the height of the security element, and the lower and upper edges of the security element align with the lower and upper edges of the tear-off connector. In order to open the package, the tear-off line is removed by separating the breaking points and the recess in the security element is released so that the lower edge of the closure lid is accessible to the opening tab.

In the shop it is then possible to find packaging, in particular for sweets and the like, in which the lid segment of the closure lid fixed at the upper edge of the container can be folded back or displaced from the upper edge of the lid if necessary the contents of the container. The originality of this packaging is not created.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Starting from the foregoing, it is an object of the invention to provide a package to ensure the originality of the package of the aforementioned type, in which the opening in the container can be segmentally released and resealed if necessary to protect the package against unwanted first opening.

This object is achieved according to the invention in such a way that the closure lid is fixed at the upper edge of the container by means of latching anchors located at intervals above its circumference, that the closure lid has an age segment which can be removed from the upper edge of the container when the closure lid is fixed; and that the tear element extends in the circumferential direction of the closure cap over the section of the edge of the age segment and is connected by a plurality of spaced spaced locations spaced from one another to the edge rr of the closure cap segment. one of the latching anchors located at mutual intervals above the closure lid. These snap anchors are releasable only when the tear-off element is removed from its position associated with the edge of the closure lid age segment, whereby the closure lid age segment is removable from the container edge and the opening in the container is segmentally accessible.

Advantageously, the lid segment of the closure lid is rotatably connected thereto by means of a return hinge, so that the lid segment can be manually turned upwards from the container rim after removing the tear-off element and releasing the at least one anchorage. By reversing the hinge, the age segment is still spontaneously closed against the upper edge of the container after the opening process.

The edge of the closure lid or the age segment may have a stepped profile. Preferably, the tear-off element is integrally formed in the edge of the lid segment of the closure lid. Each anchoring may have an elastic latch member extending from the inner wall of the closure lid rim, or from the inner wall of the tear-off member radially inwardly and at an angle upwardly, the latch member being releasable in engagement with the container rim. In order to properly latch the latch elements and the upper edge of the container, the latch members are preferably sized such that their upper end in the fixed position of the closure lid or the age segment is positioned with a slight clearance below the lower edge of the upper edge of the container. Advantageously, the tear-off element is integrated by means of the predetermined breaking points in the edge of the lid segment of the band-shaped closure lid and has an elastic latch element at each end on the inner wall.

The tear-off element has at its peripheral ends a stepped profile corresponding to the end of the closure lid, the elastic latch element being disposed on the inner wall of the upper vertical section of the tread-shaped ends of the tear-off element. At each end of the strip-like tear-off member, a tab may be provided on its outer wall for simply tearing off the tear-off member extending downwardly over the lower edge of the tear-off member.

In a preferred embodiment of the packaging according to the invention, the tear-off element has a cut-out recess starting from its inner wall into which, when the tear-off element is integrated into the edge of the age segment, forms a rectangular portion of the edge segment of the age segment. removal of the tear-off element. The rectangular portion of the edge of the lid segment is released upon removal of the tear-off element while simultaneously releasing the anchoring between the latch members and the upper edge of the container at the ends of the tear-off element. If the rectangular part is left open, the age segment is returned to the closed position by the action of the hinge. The tear-off element integrally formed in the edge of the lid segment is preferably located centrally in the peripheral section of the lid segment of the closure lid. The recess of the tear-off element is preferably formed centrally with respect to

to its peripheral length.

The container and its closure lid of the package to ensure the originality of the packaging according to the invention are preferably made of plastic injection molding. For manufacturing reasons, therefore, an opening is formed in the upper edge region of the closure lid or of the age segment above the upper end of the latch member extending from the inner wall of the rim.

The package to ensure the originality of the package according to the invention provides effective protection against unwanted first opening, while allowing only the segmental opening of the closure lid of the container opening. The age segment, which is returned by the hinge return force to the closed position, may still be provided therein by manually operated push-button means located on the age segment and at the upper edge of the container.

The container and the respective closure lid of the container according to the invention may have a circular, oval or arbitrary other plan view and the tear element connected through the breaking point locations and the closure lid edge may extend vertically over the closure lid edge or may be integrally formed by the breaking point locations into the closure lid .

The packaging according to the invention is particularly suitable for dispensing or collecting free-flowing contents, for example sweets and the like, which can be dispensed or withdrawn through the segment opening in the container.
