Definitions

• the present invention has for an object to provide a dispensing closure which has an improved drainage of the liquid trapped under the closed lid.
• This object is achieved by a dispensing closure according to the preamble of claim 1 , wherein the lid is provided with one or more venting passages, which allows air to enter under the lid in the closed position.
• one end of the guiding rib in the closed position of the lid preferably engages the deck of the closure body or only a small gap remains between the end of the rib and the deck.
• the closure body furthermore includes an inner skirt which is adapted to cooperate with a neck portion of the container to attach the closure body to the container.
• the inner skirt may be provided with a female thread adapted to cooperate with a male thread on a container neck.
• the dispensing closure is optimised for draining water from under the closed lid, and the capped container does not have to be turned to move the water towards and out of the drain passages.
• a dispensing closure with a more effective drain system is provided which allows an easier handling process after the cooling of the containers in which the containers may remain in an upright position.
• Fig. 11 shows in a view in perspective a detail of the lid of the closure of Fig. 9 in an open state
• the lift tab 29 has at an underside a recess 31.
• the closure body 2 has a finger recess 30 corresponding to the position of the lift tab 29 of the lid 3.
• the finger recess 30 allows a user to put a finger under the lift tab 29 and lift the lid 3 to flip it open.
• the finger recess 30 provides a passage for venting air to reach the recess 31 in the finger tab 29, but also to drain water from the space 21 under the lid 3 as will be explained.
