A composite closure for an associated container is configured to facilitate gripping and manipulation by consumers, as well as handling of closures by automated equipment. The closure includes an inner closure cap, and an outer gripping layer which is applied to at least the periphery of a skirt portion of the closure cap. Notably, the closure cap includes at least one outwardly projecting element which projects to at least the surface of the outer gripping layer. In one aspect of the invention, a plurality of projecting elements are provided in the form of annular elements which project beyond the surface of the outer gripping layer along respective margins thereof, thus facilitating handling by automated equipment. In another aspect of the invention, the projecting portion comprises graphical elements which extend through the outer gripping layer for enhanced gripping and visual appeal.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de fermeture composite destiné à un récipient associé, qui est conçu pour faciliter la préhension et la manipulation par les utilisateurs, ainsi que la manipulation de dispositifs de fermeture par un appareil automatisé. Le dispositif de fermeture comprend un bouchon de fermeture interne et une couche de préhension externe qui est appliquée sur au moins le pourtour d'une partie jupe du bouchon de fermeture. Le bouchon de fermeture est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend au moins un élément saillant qui fait saillie vers au moins la surface de la couche de préhension externe. Dans un aspect de l'invention, une pluralité d'éléments en saillie se présentent sous la forme d'éléments annulaires qui font saillie au-delà de la surface de la couche de préhension externe le long des bords respectifs de cette dernière, ce qui facilite la manipulation du dispositif de fermeture par un appareil automatisé. Dans un autre aspect de l'invention, la partie en saillie comporte des éléments graphiques qui s'étendent à travers la couche de préhension externe de manière à améliorer la préhension et l'esthétisme du dispositif de fermeture.
