Claims1
The JURADO Cap Lock, provides two functions:
- It covers the mouth of the bottle, and it provides an integrated locking mechanism that allows the cap to be affixed to the bottle when not in use. These components' two functions are described as follows:
- The screw slides into an integrated hollow column on the side of the cap top and the ring (Part 4) that sits at the base of the cap. The screw is opened by inserting the J key and twisting the key in a counterclockwise motion. This releases the screw from the ring and allows the cap to be removed. The screw remains in the cap top while the bottle is open. The cap is locked by replacing it back on top of the bottle and using the J key to turn the screw clockwise.
- The cap opens to permit the liquid to be poured out of the bottle.
- The locking mechanism allows the cap to be locked onto the bottle in the closed position. It can only be unlocked with the J key.
