ABSTRACT:
A cap used in combination with a container having a neck with a flexible open end having a circular chamfered edge. The cap includes a first hollow member having an upper end, a vertical axis and a downwardly extending curved outer surface. The first member has a cross section which, as viewed in any horizontal plane which includes any point disposed on the vertical axis, defines a circle. The first member has a circular horizontal groove in the outer periphery of the first member adjacent its upper end. A second vertical member aligned with said axis is secured to the first member and has an upper end disposed above the first member. A lower portion of the outer curved surface of the first member is initially disposed in the opening in said neck with the groove spaced outwardly from the opening in the neck. The edge peripherally engages the first member and forms a first seal therewith. When the first seal is broken, the first member can be removed from the neck and then can be reinserted into the opening in the neck to a depth at which the edge peripherally engages the groove to form a second seal therewith.
