Abstract

An assembly for closing a tube. The assembly includes a tube head that has a neck and a cap. The assembly defines a guide path, a thread and a thread portion allowing the cap to be positioned on the neck by cooperation with the guide path and the thread. The assembly further includes a first and a second stop element for the thread portion, the stop elements being angularly spaced apart and defining a passage between the guide path and the thread. The assembly is configured to allow axial displacement of the thread portion through the passage with a non-return effect produced by at least one of said stops.
