Abstract: A child-resistant package includes a plastic container having a body, an externally threaded finish, and a shoulder coupling the finish to the body and having an outer axially facing surface. A deflectable release element is integrally cantilevered from an exterior surface of the finish adjacent to the outer axially facing surface of the container shoulder, and a locking lug is provided on the release element. A plastic closure has an internally threaded skirt for receipt over the externally threaded finish and a locking lug on the skirt for engagement with the locking lug on the release element to prevent unthreading of the closure from the finish. Manual flexure of the release element moves the locking lug on the release element out of engagement with the locking lug on the skirt to permit removal of the closure.

Abstract: A pill dispensing package that includes a circular base having a pill dispensing opening adjacent to its periphery. A circular package disk has a peripheral array of frangible elements containing pills to be dispensed disposed for selective alignment with the base dispensing opening, and indicia for indicating dosage periodicity. A circular cover overlies the package disk, and is moveably secured to the base. The cover has a window for observing the periodicity indicia on the package disk, and a button for manual urging against the package disk to dispense a pill through the base opening from the frangible element aligned with the opening. The cover is resiliently urged axially away from the base and circumferentially with respect to the base, and is constructed to permit limited axial and circumferential movement with respect to the base.

Abstract: A cut and pierce closure molded from a rigid plastic material for a container whose open mouth is normally sealed by a thin membrane applied to a rim of the container. The closure is removably applied to the container in a closing orientation by interengaging helical threads on the exterior of a neck of the container and an annular skirt of the closure. To dispense the contents of the container, the closure is removed and reapplied in an inverted orientation, a flange extension of the closure skirt surrounding the rim of the container and serving to center the closure in its inverted orientation on the container. A top panel of the closure is provided with a double-ended arcuate shoulder that engages the membrane when the closure is in its inverted orientation on the container to maintain tension in the portion of the membrane in engagement with the shoulder. The arcuate shoulder also serves, in combination with the flange extension, to trap the rim of the container therebetween.

Abstract: A child-resistant compact or tablet case of one-piece molded plastic construction made up of a generally flat rectangular base and a cover top interconnected by an integral "living" hinge. A pair of mating lip flanges extend one each along the front edges of the base and top, i.e., the edges remote from the hinge. Each flange has an arcuate recess, and these recesses are mutually offset from each other laterally of the case when it is closed with the flanges lying against one another. By placing a thumb in one recess, and the tip of the forefinger in the other recess, a pry-open force may be applied to thus readily open the case. Since only one recess is visible when viewing the case from the top or the bottom, this manner of opening the case is not readily apparent to an infant or young child, but is very easy for an infirm or elderly adult to comprehend and use for opening the compact case merely by finger feel.

Abstract: A tamper indicating package comprising a one-piece molded closure of plastic which threads onto a container such that when the closure is unthreaded, a tamper-indicating ring becomes separated from the lower end of the closure skirt. The indicating ring or band is joined to the closure along a weakened frangible line and a flexible stop ring is formed within the band and extends inwardly and upwardly when the closure is applied to a container finish. The container finish has a first radial bead, a second radial bead spaced axially below the first bead, and an intermediate tapered or concave surface between the first radial bead and second radial bead. A further surface extends from the second bead axially downwardly and radially inwardly and the flexible end of the stop ring rests on this surface between the two beads, when the closure is applied.

Abstract: A one-piece molded closure of plastic which threads onto a container with a fairly specific exterior configuration and provides a combination such that when the closure is unthreaded, a tamper-indicating ring becomes separated from the lower end of the closure skirt. The indicating ring or band is joined to the closure by frangible bridges and a flexible stop ring is formed within the band and extends inwardly and upwardly when the closure is applied to a container finish. The container finish has a first radial bead and an inwardly tapering side wall surface therebeneath which leads to an abrupt, inwardly extending ledge. The flexible stop ring rests on the tapered surface, when the closure is applied. After closure removal, the stop ring and band drops below the ledge indicating that the closure has been removed.
