ABSTRACT:
A capsule having a cap portion may be torn together with a pulling tab for tearing. The capsule comprises the cap portion and a skirt portion. Two weakening lines for tearing the cap portion are provided between the cap portion and the skirt portion. One of the weakening lines on the cap portion side is inclined to a top of the cap portion with a certain inclination as it approaches near the tear-terminating end. When pulling the pulling tab outwardly, the cap portion is torn along the weakening lines. Then, as it approaches near the tear-terminating end, the cap portion is torn upward toward the top, thereby opening the cap portion. Thus, the cap portion is removed from a cap of a bottle together with the pulling tab in one unit.
