Abstract: The invention relates to an improvement in a child resistant liquid seal closure and container combination. The container neck has one or more locking projections which engage one or more locking lugs on the interior surface of the closure to prevent rotational removal of the closure from the container. To remove the closure, the cap skirt must be squeezed and distorted to disengage the lugs radially outwardly from the locking projections on the container neck. A snap cap liner is retained within the closure, adjacent the inside surface of the top panel. As the closure is rotated onto the container, this liner snaps into place onto the top of the container neck, and forms a primary liquid seal. Although the final orientation of the outer closure and bottle is effected by the relative position of the locking lugs and projecting cam, this orientation does not affect the primary seal formed by the internal snap cap liner.

Abstract: A plug fitment adapted to be removably inserted in a circular port to seal same in a substantially air tight manner comprises a somewhat flexible body of generally cylindrical shape. The body has an open upper end and an interior region bounded by an inner wall and communicating with the open end and has a vertical axis. The upper end has a circular peripheral lip lying in a horizontal plane and having an inner periphery defining the periphery of a circular opening centered on said axis. Slightly flexible means disposed in said upper end and said region includes a vertical member spaced from the inner wall and aligned with said axis. The member has a top end disposed below said horizontal plane. The member has a vertical slit extending downwardly from the top end to a bottom position intermediate the top end and the bottom of said member. A circular generally flat slightly flexible key disc is disposed horizontally and removably in said opening.

Abstract: A safety overcap for a container, for example, an aerosol container. The child-resistant overcap includes a generally circular top wall and a generally cylindrical outer skirt depending downwardly from the top wall. The wall of the outer skirt is provided with a pair of opposed, longitudinally extending slots. An inner skirt depends downwardly from the top wall within the outer skirt and has two opposed portions positioned adjacent the pair of openings in the outer skirt. The inner skirt is provided with opposed, inwardly projecting beads on the lower portion thereof which enagage an annular groove provided at the top of the container to attach the cap to the container. By gripping the exposed portions of the inner skirt through the slots with the forefinger and thumb and applying pressure thereto, the inner skirt is distorted and releases the overcap from the container.

Abstract: A safety container closure for small plastic medicine bottles. A plug is inserted into the top or neck, in a tight friction-fit. The plug carries a key recess. An outer cap fits over the top of the container, and carries a key molded to it. The key is placed into the recess, and the plug engaged for withdrawal.
