Re-closeable cap for a can

A re-closeable cap for a beverage can comprising:

• a unibody material construction, the unibody material construction being configured to comprise a cap rim and a cap plate centrally located relative to the cap rim, the cap rim for attaching the re-closeable cap to the can rim, the cap plate comprising a static portion and first and second dynamic portions, the first dynamic portion comprising an eccentric switch mechanism, the eccentric switch mechanism being configured for maintaining the first dynamic portion in at least first and second states of pivotal extension, the first and second dynamic portions being pivotal relative to the static portion for providing a can-opening access aperture and closing the can-opening access aperture.

A re-closeable cap comprising:

• a unibody material construction, the unibody material construction being configured to comprise a cap rim and a cap plate, the cap rim for attaching the re-closeable cap to a can rim, the cap plate comprising a static structure, a first dynamic structure, and a second dynamic structure;
• the first dynamic structure comprising an eccentric switch mechanism, the eccentric switch mechanism being configured for maintaining the first dynamic structure in at least first and second states of pivotal extension, the first dynamic structure being pivotally matable with the static structure for selectively providing a can-opening access aperture and selectively closing the can-opening access aperture;
• the second dynamic structure for at least partially covering a can opener element and being pivotal for enabling the user to form the can opening in the can capping plate by moving in unison with the can opener element.

A re-closeable cap for outfitting a beverage can enabling a user to selectively cover an upper can portion of the beverage can, the upper can portion comprising a can rim and a can capping plate recessed relative to the can rim, the re-closeable cap comprising:

• a unibody material construction, the unibody material construction being configured to comprise a cap rim and a cap plate recessed and centrally located relative to the cap rim, the cap rim for receiving the can rim and attaching the re-closeable cap to the upper can portion such that the cap rim and cap plate mimic the can rim and can capping plate, the cap plate comprising a static structure, a first dynamic structure pivotally attached to the static structure, and a second dynamic structure;
• the first dynamic structure being pivotal for selectively providing a can-opening access aperture and selectively closing the can-opening access aperture, the can-opening access aperture for enabling a user to consume can contents by way of a can opening formed in the can capping plate, the second dynamic structure for at least partially covering a can opener element of the upper can portion and being pivotal for enabling the user to form the can opening in the can capping plate by moving in unison with the can opener element.
