This invention relates to a plastic closure or cap-type stopper of which the outer skirt has formed on its inner surface a plurality of ribs adapted to engage the top ring and the grooves of the neck of the container to be stopped, on either side of a partially tearable guaranty strip bounded by circular thinning grooves formed in the inner surface of the skirt. The mold for manufacturing this closure comprises underneath a fixed plate formed with holes for the passage of the ejection ring and ejection shaped sleeve of a sliding plate perforated like the fixed plate and actuated by a pusher, and above a sliding impression plate of which the perforation corresponding to the preceding ones bounds the injection chamber for the closure skirt on the core, said sliding impression plate being actuated by a pusher for releasing the closure from the mold impression at the end of its stroke.
Mold for manufacturing a plastic closure comprising an external skirt formed with internal ribs corresponding to the ring portion and grooves of the neck of the container to be stopped, and bounding a guaranty strip partially tearable due to circular thinning grooves formed on the inner surface of said skirt, said mold comprising a compensation plate, a fixed base plate overlying said compensation plate, a sliding plate above said fixed plate, a resilient pusher between said base plate and said sliding plate, a cylindrical ejection ring solid with said sliding plate, a cylindrical core solid with said base plate, a shaped sleeve adapted to slide freely on said core and guided by an integral heel portion, said ejection ring being movable through a height equal to that of said notch formed in said base plate, a fixed plate disposed above said supporting plate and comprising holes for guiding said sleeve and ejection ring, an impression plate disposed above said fixed plate and formed with holes corresponding to the holes of said fixed plate, a push member secured to said impression plate and adapted to be actuated by said compensation plate, and a chamber defined between said impression plate and said sliding sleeve above said ejection ring and into which the plastic material is adapted to be injected.
