  • a T TORNE VS SAFETY PACKAGE BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to safety caps and containers.
  • the cap of the Hedgewick patent incorporates circumferentially spaced axial openings that overlie lugs on the cap that are adapted to engage notches on the container.
  • the axially spaced openings make it possible to produce the cap in one piece.
  • a cap and container construction which is similar to that shown in the Hedgewick US. Pat. No. 3,344,942 but can be made in a mold in one piece without the use of circumferentially spaced openings overlying the lugs.
  • FIG. 1 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view of a cap and container embodying the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view of a modified form of cap and container.
  • FIG. 3 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view of a further modified form of cap and container.
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view of a further modified form of cap and container.
  • FIG. 5 is a vertical sectional view similar to FIG. 4 showing the relative positions of the cap and container as the cap is being removed from the container.
  • FIG. 6 is a plan view of the container.
  • FIG. 7 is a side elevational view of the container.
  • FIG. 8 is a fragmentary side elevational view of the upper portion of the upper end of the container shown in FIG. 4.
  • the invention comprises a cap 10 that is adapted to be applied to the upper end of a container C, each of which is molded by injecting plastic into a cavity.
  • the cap 10 includes a base 11 and a peripheral flange 12 extending axially of the axis of the cap.
  • a plurality of radially inwardly extending lugs or locking elements 13 are provided on the inner surface 14 of the flange 12 adjacent the lower end thereof.
  • An integral flexible resilient annular projection or web 15 extends generally axially and radially outwardly from adjacent the periphery of the inner surface 16 of the base 11 and is formed with an enlarged rib 17 on the free end thereof that is adapted to engage the upper end or rim of the container C.
  • the web 15 has a lesser cross section intermediate its ends so that it will flex in termediate its ends upon application of an axial force.
  • An integral annular rib 18 extends axially from the inner surface 16 of the base 11 in generally overlying relation to the free end of the web 15.
  • each lug 13 extends upwardly and outwardly at an angle to the horizontal and as shown is slightly concave. Such a construction permits the cap 10 to be molded in one piece in a mold and then stripped or snapped off the mold while the plastic 2 is still hot.
  • the angle which the surface forms with the horizontal preferably ranges between 5 and 45.
  • the container C is generally cylindrical at least at the upper end or mouth portion and preferably throughout so that it can be made in a single cavity one-piece mold.
  • the container C is formed at its upper end with a plurality of outwardly extending radial projections or locking elements 19. As shown in FIG. 8, each radial projection 19 is formed with a first portion 20 and a circumferentially spaced second portion 21 to define a notch 22.
  • the lower surface 23 of the first portion 20 is tapered gradually downwardly and circumferentially to blend in a smooth curve with the side wall 24 of the notch 22.
  • the second portion 21 extends axially a greater distance from the upper end of the container to define the side 25 of the notch 22.
  • each notch 22 is formed with an upwardly and outwardly extending surface that is complementary to the surface of the lug 13, that is. forms the same angle with the horizontal.
  • the cap 10 In order to assemble the cap 10 on the container C, the cap is applied to the upper end of the container. The cap is then rotated to bring the lugs 13 into engagement with the tapered surfaces 23 of the projections 19. Further rotation of the cap causes the lugs to follow the surfaces 23 producing a flexing of the web 15 intermediate its free edge and its base until the lugs engage the notches 22. In this position, the cap 10 is locked on the container C by the spring force of the web 15 and the bead 17 of the web 15 is in sealing engagement with the upper surface of the container C as shown in FIG. I.
  • the base 11 of the cap 10 is of such a thickness that it will flex if a force is applied at the center of the base 11.
  • the area of juncture of the base of the web 15 and the base 11 of the cap substantially overlies the upper end of the container.
  • the cap cannot be removed by a simple rotation so that children are deterred, if not prevented. from removing the cap.
  • an axial force must be provided on the periphery of the cap in the direction of the arrow as shown in FIG. 1 to cause a flexing of the web 15 and permit the lugs 13 to move axially and thereby clear the portion 20 of the projections.
  • the cap can be turned in the direction of the arrow shown in FIG. 1 to permit its removal. Because of the flexible nature of the base 11 of the cap, the axial force must be provided on the periphery of the cap and not at the center of the cap. This force is most conveniently applied by pressing the container against the palm of the hand.
  • the rib l8 prevents overflexing of the web 15 beyond the elastic limit which might cause a loss of resiliency or spring action of the web.
  • the greater axial extent of the portion 21 prevents turning the cap beyond the notch 22.
  • the greater axial extent of the portion 21 prevents rotating the cap in the wrong direction for removal.
  • the cap 10 is made of a suitable plastic material which provides the desired flexibility of the integral web 15.
  • a preferred material comprises polypropylene although other materials such as polyethylene can be used.
  • the container C is also preferably made of a plastic.
  • a preferred plastic material comprises a high impact styrene.
  • the annular flexible web 26 is of substantially uniform thickness and extends downwardly and inwardly from the inner surface of the base of the cap exteriorly of the stop 18.
  • the lower edge of the annular web extends into the open upper end of the container and the outer surface 27 thereof engages the inner edge 28 of the upper end of the container.
  • the upper surface 13b of each lug 13 is straight and extends upwardly and outwardly and the notch 22' has a complementary surface 22b.
  • the annular flexible projection 29 extends substantially axially downwardly from the inner surface of the base of the cap and has an inwardly tapered lower surface 30 that engages a complementary tapered lower surface 31 on the upper end of the container.
  • the surfaces of each lug and notch 22 are similar to the form of the invention shown in FIG. 2.
  • the annular web 32 extends axially downwardly from the inner surface of the base of the cap and has an outwardly inclined lower edge 33 which engages an annular V-shaped shoulder or groove 34 on the upper end of the container.
  • the web flexes inwardly intermediate its ends inwardly to permit movement of the cap sufficiently to cause the lugs 13 to clear the notches 22'.
  • a safety package for medicines and the like comprising: a container having a mouth portion with an annular rim; a one-piece molded plastic cap having a base with an integral peripheral flange projecting axially therefrom for receiving the mouth portion of said container; interengageable locking elements on the inner wall of the flange of the cap and the outer wall of the mouth of the container, the cap locking elements being engageable with and disengageable from the container locking elements by combined axial and rotative motion of the cap relative to the container; said cap locking elements and container locking elements being formed with complementary upwardly and radially outwardly extending mating surfaces; and a resilient flexible member on said cap having an inner annular end joined integrally to said base and extending axially therefrom and terminating in an outer annular free end; said outer annular free end being engageable with the container to bias the cap and container apart when the locking elements are engaged.
  • said complementary upwardly and radially outwardly extending mating surfaces are defined by said locking lugs being curved concavely upwardly and outwardly to merge with the inner surface of the flange and the notch being complementarily, convexly curved upwardly and outwardly from the upper inner edge of the notch.
  • a safety package as claimed in claim 28 wherein the outer annular free end of said resilient flexible member is tapered downwardly and outwardly from the inner surface of the resilient flexible member to the outer surface thereof, and the inner surface of the mouth of the container is formed with an annular groove, said groove having a complementary surface tapered downwardly and outwardly from the inner wall of the mouth of the container engageable by the tapered surface of said outer annular free end.
