DEVICE FOR SEALING BOTTLES AND SIMILAR CONTAINERS, METHOD OF MAKING DEVICE AND ARRANGEMENT OF IMPLEMENTING THE GIVEN METHODS Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC B65D41/20 B65D41/26 

FIELD: sealing devices.

SUBSTANCE: device for sealing or tightly closing bottles or similar containers consists of at least two components, a rigid cup-shaped component and an elastic membrane, which are constantly held together. The rigid cup-shaped component, made from metal, plastic or some other material, has the shape of a hollow body of rotation, formed by a hollow cylinder or a cut-off cone with a closed bottom. The membrane is immovably stretched on top of the rim of the open end of the cup-shaped component, or preferably perpendicular the axis to the plane, located between the closed bottom and the open end of the rigid cup-shaped component, using any suitable method. When installing the device on the neck of the vessel, the membrane is stretched, which allows for its tight adhesion to the edge of the neck. The rigid cup-shaped component is joined to the inner part of the neck of the vessel through deformation or a screwed joining. The tightening device is between the closed bottom of the rigid cup-shaped component and the edge of the neck of the vessel. There are alternative methods for making the device for sealing and the arrangement for implementing the given methods.

EFFECT: increased protective properties of the device; provision for making a device for exposing unauthorised opening of bottles.
