Cap for a container

A method for making a cap for a container, comprising a step of forming in which the following are made:

• a body configured to be coupled and uncoupled relative to the neck of the container and including
• a side wall, which is internally threaded and extends around a longitudinal axis between a first end and a second end, and
• a transverse wall joined to the first end of the side wall;
• a tamper evident ring, configured to remain anchored to the neck of the container even when the cap body is uncoupled from the neck, and including
• a retaining portion, configured to engage a locking member on the neck of the container, and
• a joining portion, where the tamper evident ring is joined to the cap body, the joining portion being configured to be torn along a full perimeter surrounding the longitudinal axis in response to a movement of the body away from the tamper evident ring,
• characterized in that also made in the step of forming is a connecting band having a first end connected to the side wall of the body and a second end connected to the retaining portion of the tamper evident ring, wherein the tamper evident ring is joined to the cap body both by the joining portion of the tamper evident ring and by the connecting band, wherein the connecting band extends, without interruptions, between the first end and the second end, the first end being connected to the side wall of the body in a first connecting zone and the second end of the connecting band being connected to the retaining portion of the tamper evident ring in a second connecting zone,
• wherein in the step of forming, a first strip and a second strip of the connecting band are made and wherein the cap body is joined to the tamper evident ring both by the first strip and the second strip,
• wherein in the step of forming, a first bracket, a second bracket, and a third bracket of the connecting band are made, the first bracket, the second bracket, and the third bracket jutting out away from the longitudinal axis,
• wherein the first and the second bracket jut out from the side wall of the body and the third bracket juts out from the retaining portion of the tamper evident ring or, vice versa, the first and the second bracket jut out from the retaining portion of the tamper evident ring and the third bracket juts out from the side wall of the body,
• wherein along a profile of the cap around the longitudinal axis, the first bracket, the second bracket, and the third bracket are angularly offset from each other and the third bracket is interposed between the first bracket and the second bracket, and
• wherein the first strip has a first end which is connected to the first bracket and a second end which is connected to the third bracket, and
• wherein the second strip has a first end which is connected to the second bracket and a second end which is connected to the third bracket.
