  • Patent number: 4180178
    Abstract: A container such as a bottle, vial or can has an enlarged lip surrounding a mouth opening, and a pliable closure which may be pressed down over the enlarged lip to secure the cap upon the container. The cap is integrally molded and comprises a top panel and peripheral skirt with an inward flange. The peripheral part of the cap including the outer portion of the top panel and the skirt is connected to a central flat area of the top panel by a circular hinge line located inside of the container mouth opening which permits relatively easy flexing at that point. To release the cap from the container, external downward pressure is applied by a person's thumb against the central flat area of the cap causing the hinge to flex and creating a pivot action between the hinge line and the outermost perimeter of the cap whereby the skirt moves upwardly over the enlarged lip of the container mouth opening.
