Abstract
Abstract Two-component package, with a cup arranged in the neck of the packaging container for receiving the one component, and a sealing cap screwed to a thread of the neck and having a collar projecting into the cup, the face edge of such collar forming a butt edge for separating the cup within the zone of a rated breaking point by a screw motion of the sealing cap, characterized in that the neck (1) is designed multi-layered in a way such that an adapter ring (13) is present on the outer side of the annular wall (W) of the neck (1), such wall starting from the wall (3') of the packaging container and being stiffened by the cup (2), such adapter ring being secured against rotation on such annular wall, the outer jacket surface of such adapter ring supporting the thread (14) for the sealing cap (4) and its inner surface forcing the annular wall (W) against the jacket surface of the cup.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
162 words
Two-component package, with a cup arranged in the neck of the packaging container for receiving the one component, and a sealing cap screwed to a thread of the neck and having a collar projecting into the cup, the face edge of such collar forming a butt edge for separating the cup within the zone of a rated breaking point by a screw motion of the sealing cap, characterized in that the neck (1) is designed multi-layered in a way such that an adapter ring (13) is present on the outer side of the annular wall (W) of the neck (1), such wall starting from the wall (3') of the packaging container and being stiffened by the cup (2), such adapter ring being secured against rotation on such annular wall, the outer jacket surface of such adapter ring supporting the thread (14) for the sealing cap (4) and its inner surface forcing the annular wall (W) against the jacket surface of the cup.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
162 words
Two-component package, with a cup arranged in the neck of the packaging container for receiving the one component, and a sealing cap screwed to a thread of the neck and having a collar projecting into the cup, the face edge of such collar forming a butt edge for separating the cup within the zone of a rated breaking point by a screw motion of the sealing cap, characterized in that the neck (1) is designed multi-layered in a way such that an adapter ring (13) is present on the outer side of the annular wall (W) of the neck (1), such wall starting from the wall (3') of the packaging container and being stiffened by the cup (2), such adapter ring being secured against rotation on such annular wall, the outer jacket surface of such adapter ring supporting the thread (14) for the sealing cap (4) and its inner surface forcing the annular wall (W) against the jacket surface of the cup.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized by a form-locking bead/groove joint (7/8) between the jacket surface of the cup and the annular wall (W).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized in that the annular wall (W) has on the outer side shoulders (16) clipped over by countershoulders (17) of the adapter ring (13).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
38 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized in that with an outwardly directed edge (5), the cup (2) grips over the top face edge (1' and 13', respectively) of the neck (1) and of the adapter ring (13).
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
48 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized in that the sealing cap (4) has an annular bridge (18) starting from its pot bottom surface (10) for resting on and sealing the edge (5) of the cup (2) in the final screw thread position of the sealing cap (4).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
36 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized in that the jacket surface of the collar (9) of the sealing cap (4) has a sealing annular bead (8) contacting the corresponding inner surface of the cup (2).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
46 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized in that the lock against rotation is formed by axially aligned fillets (19, 20) on the annular wall (W) and the inner surface of the adapter (13), such fillets engaging each other in the manner of a claw coupling.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
23 words
Two-component package according to claim 7, characterized in that the fillets (19, 20) are seated in a joint zone formed by wall displacement.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
59 words
Two-component package according to claim 7, characterized in that the face ends of the fillets (19, 20) disposed in the coupling direction have roof-like centering bevels (19' and 20', respectively) whose copings (19" and 20", respectively), in the final plugged position, come to be disposed in front of equally directed bevel steps (22, 23) of the displacement joint zone.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
60 words
Two-component package according to claim 1, characterized in that in the basic sales position, the end of the adapter ring (13) on the container side freely projects by a measure (x) as compared to the corresponding edge of the sealing cap, such measure conforming to the remaining lift (x') of the sealing cap (4) in the final screw thread position.
