Patent attributes
The invention discloses a container closure (3) for closing a vessel (2). The container closure (3) has a pouring opening (37) for pouring a liquid out of the vessel (2), a closure body (36) by means of which the pouring opening (37) can be closed, and also a closure lever (33) which interacts with the closure body (36). By being pressed by a finger of the user, the closure lever (33) can be pivoted from a closure position, in which the closure body (36) closes the pouring opening (37), to an opening position, in which the closure body (36) unblocks the pouring opening (37). The container closure (3) also has a rotary element (31) which can be rotated about a vertical axis relative to the closure lever (33) in order to form a stop with the closure lever (33) in a blocking position and thereby to block the closure lever (33) in its opening position and to allow the closure lever (33) to pivot between the closure position and the opening position in a release position.
