ABSTRACT:
A dispensing cap (3) having a body (32) made of a rigid or semirigid material, intended to be mounted on a reservoir (21) containing a product of a fluid-to-viscous consistency, is provided with an opening (4) permitting the dispensing of the product and a lid (5) of a rigid or semirigid material capable of obturating the opening (4). The lid (5) is articulated on the body (32) in the vicinity of an articulation axis (A) so as to be capable of selectively passing from an open position to a closed position, and is connected to the body (32) by a connecting element (10) having one of its ends joined to the lid (5) and its other end joined to the body (32). The connecting element (10) is disposed so as to be situated on one side of the articulation axis (A) in the open position and on the other side of the axis (A) in the closed position. The connecting element (10) is subjected to an elongation when the lid (5) passes from one to the other of its open and closed positions. The connecting element (10) is made of an elastomeric material.
