Abstract

A closure device for the neck of a pressurized container comprises a dispensing nozzle provided with a skirt adapted to be secured to the neck of the container. A closing member within the nozzle comprises an actuating rod extending lengthwise towards the tip of the nozzle and an obturator having an annular wall normally sealingly engageable with a cylindrical internal wall portion of the nozzle. The cylindrical wall portion is connected to the portion of the nozzle containing the actuating rod by an elastically deformable portion whereby the nozzle can be tilted to tilt said rod and release the seal between the obturator and the cylindrical internal wall portion of the nozzle.
