  • Patent number: 4962869
    Abstract: A toggle-acting dispensing closure which is resistant to inadvertent actuation during shipping and handling prior to purchase. A deformable resistance post is provided on the body of the closure and interferes initially with the pivoting of the actuator except when a substantially higher force than normally used to pivot the actuator is applied. After the first operation by applying the substantially higher force, the actuator may be operated by the application of a customary lower operating force to the actuator.
