Abstract: A limited pour neck finish bottle wherein a plurality of radially inwardly extending flexible fingers are integral with the peripheral edge portion of the open end of the neck of a bottle and extend across the open end of the neck to restrict or interfere with the flow of liquid from the bottle if an attempt is made to pour the liquid from the bottle rather than employing an exact dose dispensing device. The bottle is made by molding a plurality of axially extending flexible fingers on the peripheral edge portion at the open end of the neck simultaneously with the molding of the bottle, and then bending the fingers downwardly to the radially inwardly extending position.

Abstract: A break away overcap (1) is used for maintaining a closure (6) in sealing engagement with the open end of a vial (2). The overcap (1) is molded from a fracturable plastic and is provided with a pair of spaced, parallel score lines or V-grooves (5) extending across the top wall (3) of the overcap (1) and downwardly of the cap skirt (4) to the lower edge thereof on each side of the cap. Thumb and finger engaging portions (4a) are provided at the lower edge of the skirt (4) adjacent the terminal ends of the score lines (5) so that by pushing inwardly on the thumb and finger engaging portions, (4a) the overcap (1) breaks into three pieces to thereby expose the closure (6) for insertion of a syringe needle therethrough into the vial for removal of the vial contents therefrom.

Abstract: A vial cap of plastic having a skirt portion press fit onto the neck of a vial. A transversely extending wall having a central opening is integral with the upper end portion of the skirt, and a sealing disc is positioned between the open end of the vial and the transverse wall. A plastic lid having a plastic hinge integrally connected between the lid and the skirt is provided for closing the central opening of the cap during storage. By the construction and arrangement of the plastic vial cap, the fear of aluminum toxicity is overcome and the lid prevents the accumulation of dust and other debris on the sealing disc while the vial is in storage.
