Claim 11

A closure cap (2) for a container 916) having an annular bead (18), said closure cap having a free circumferential rim and having at its free circumferential rim an originality ring (7) provided with retaining elements which cooperate with the annular bead (18) of the container (16), characterized in that the retaining elements comprise rockers (8) each with a first leg (9) and a second leg (10) which are connected to the originality ring (7) by an elastic web (11) that is common to both, said first leg (9) pointing obliquely inward relative to the closure cap (2) and said second leg (10) pointing down, and further characterized in that the originality ring (7) has a section (25) in which no rockers are located and the originality ring (7) having a predetermined breaking point of weakness 923), the rockers (8) being provided only unilaterally adjacent to the point of weakness (23) and the originality ring (7) being connected to the closure cap (2) only in said section (25) in which no rockers (8) are located.

Claim 12

A closure cap (2) for a container 916) having an annular bead (18), said closure cap having a free circumferential rim and having at its free circumferential rim an originality ring (7) provided with retaining elements which cooperate with the annular bead (18) of the container (16), characterized in that the retaining elements comprise rockers (8) each with a first leg (9) and a second leg (10) which are connected to the originality ring (7) by an elastic web (11) that is common to both, said first leg (9) pointing obliquely inward relative to the closure cap (2) and said second leg (10) pointing down, and further characterized in that the originality ring (7) has a section (25) in which no rockers are located and the originality ring (7) having a predetermined breaking point of weakness 923), the rockers (8) being provided only unilaterally adjacent to the point of weakness (23) and the originality ring (7) being connected to the closure cap (2) only in said section (25) in which no rockers (8) are located.

Claim 13
