Patent number: 11618619Abstract: Child resistant closures are typically two-piece assemblies or squeeze and turn closures with an inside wall and an outside wall. The current squeeze and turn child resistant closures are expensive and difficult for seniors to operate. The preferred design is a child-resistant single wall cap and container assembly that is preferably easy for seniors to open and difficult for children to open or is substantially child-resistant. In addition, due to the single wall of the cap and relatively low cap height, the preferred assembly is light, requires less material and relatively less expensive to manufacture than prior art container assemblies. Like many child resistant closure systems, the preferred container assembly design includes a container with specifically designed neck finish to lock the closure on the container. However, the preferred design includes two small lugs, which generally do not add significantly to the bottle complexity or bottle cost.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2018Date of Patent: April 4, 2023Assignee: DRUG PLASTICS & GLASS COMPANY, INC.Inventors: Frederick N. Biesecker, II, Nathaniel Koller, Bruce T. Cleevely, Douglas S. Camomile, Lissa Biesecker Longacre, Joshua T. Koehler

Patent number: 10913585Abstract: A container assembly configured to maintain a predetermined humidity for storing a product therein. The container assembly includes a container having a body with a body wall and a mouth opening into a storage cavity and a cap having a top wall. The cap is selectively mountable over the mouth of the container to substantially enclose the storage cavity in a mounted configuration. A sidewall extends substantially perpendicularly from one of the body wall and the top wall. The sidewall defines an opening and a compartment and has an opening edge adjacent the opening. A moisture control material is positioned within the compartment. A sealing membrane has a peripheral portion. The peripheral portion is secured to the sidewall proximate the opening edge. The sealing membrane is configured to allow moisture flow therethrough to maintain the predetermined humidity in the storage cavity.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 2019Date of Patent: February 9, 2021Assignees: DRUG PLASTICS & GLASS COMPANY, INC., BOVEDA, INC.Inventors: Lissa Biesecker Longacre, Frederick N. Biesecker, II, Douglas S. Camomile, Bruce T. Cleevely, Alex M. Warmkessel, Robert Esse, Timothy H. Bohrer, Brian Rice, Kyle A. Moll, Eric Weller

Patent number: 8777032Abstract: A cap includes a top wall, an outer peripheral edge, a first section, and a second section. A skirt depends from the outer peripheral edge. The skirt includes an attached end, a free end, a plurality of slots, and a plurality of apertures. Each aperture is spaced-apart from the free end of the skirt. The top wall has a first configuration and a second configuration. When the top wall is in the first configuration, the first section is generally planer and the second section is generally arcuate. When the top wall is in the first configuration, the skirt extends generally perpendicularly to the first section to generally engage at least a portion of a container. When the top wall is in the second configuration, the free end of the skirt extends radially outwardly from the attached end thereof to allow the cap to be removed from the container.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2012Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: Drug Plastics & Glass Company, Inc.Inventors: Frederick N. Biesecker, Gregory Sprishen, William Gordon Knestrick, III
