Patent number: 11787603Abstract: Novel lockable safety closures and containers comprising the closures are described herein. The containers and closures are useful for dispensing valuable, dangerous, or potentially dangerous goods, and are easy for adults (including the elderly or frail) to open, but difficult for children to open. The closures include a displaceable slider covering a main opening for accessing the interior of a container. The slide includes one or more depressible tabs that keep to slider in a closed, and which can be opening by depressing the tab (or tabs) and urging the slider to an open position.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2019Date of Patent: October 17, 2023Assignee: RB INNOVATIONS, LLCInventors: Zachary (Rocky) Batzel, Daniel A.

Patent number: 11697529Abstract: A flow gate pour closure for regulated dispersal of a flowing content from a container comprises a closure body and a sliding gate with a depressible tab. The closure body has a principal aperture aligned with a principal opening of the container to allow for the content to flow therethrough. The sliding gate is translatable through a gate exit aperture of the closure body within the gate track to block the principal aperture and prevent the content from flowing or to expose the principal aperture to partially or completely allow the content to flow at a variable flow rate. The sliding gate is translatable reciprocally back along the slide track to re-block the principal aperture. The tab depressible partially engages the top collar when the sliding gate fully blocks the principal aperture and is arranged so that depressing the tab enables sliding gate movement through the gate exit aperture.Type: GrantFiled: March 4, 2019Date of Patent: July 11, 2023Assignee: RB INNOVATIONS, LLCInventors: Zachary (Rocky) Batzel, Daniel Jepson

Patent number: 10577152Abstract: Novel lockable safe containers for dispensing valuable, dangerous and potentially dangerous goods via a main opening that is easy for adults (including the elderly or frail) to open, but difficult for children to open, using a finger pressure on a sliding closure with a deflectable extension operable by finger pressure to enable. The novel safe containers have many additional advantages including human factors, ergonomics, manufacturing, supply chain and distribution, warehousing, retail, tamper resistance advantages, and labeling. The slidable closure exits the main opening zone via an auxiliary opening but wholly without exiting the container in normal usage.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2018Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Assignee: RB INNOVATIONS, LLCInventors: Zachary (Rocky) Batzel, Daniel A.
