A container with a safety-latch, the container comprising: a lid; a base rotatably attached to the lid; a lip located on the lid; a base pin attached to the base; an outer sleeve rotatably attached to the base pin; a U-shaped pin rotatably attached to the outer sleeve, and configured to removably attach to the lip; where the outer sleeve and U-shaped pin are difficult for a child to manipulate in order to remove the U-shaped pin from the lip.

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.

A child-resistant container may include an inner tray including a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a first locking mechanism on the first side, and a second locking mechanism on the second side; and an outer sleeve including a first sleeve side, a second sleeve side opposite the first sleeve side, a first locking port on the first sleeve side, a second locking port on the second sleeve side, an open end, and one or more catches. The inner tray may be slidably inserted into the outer sleeve through the open end such that each of the locking mechanisms releasably engages at least one of the locking ports. At least one of the locking mechanisms may engage with the one or more catches to prevent the inner tray from being fully withdrawn from the outer sleeve.

A liquid dispensing nozzle includes a liquid dispensing opening and a removable cap configured to cover the liquid dispensing opening. The removable cap includes an outer casing and an inner casing that are coaxial and configured to move relative to each other in an axial direction of the nozzle between an unscrewing configuration wherein a pressing force applied to the removable cap is greater than a predetermined threshold, and a safety configuration wherein a pressing force applied to the cap is lower than the predetermined threshold, wherein the outer casing is configured to freewheel relative the inner casing in the first direction. A rotation of the outer casing in a first direction drives by friction a rotation of the inner casing in the same first direction to unscrew the cap, wherein the pressing force is different from a force required to rotate the cap in the first direction.

There are described bottle cap assemblies. In some embodiments, a bottle cap assembly includes a cap which is snappingly engagable to a bottle and disengageable by rotating the cap and the bottle relative to one another, squeezing the cap suitably and pulling the cap away from the bottle.

The present disclosure relates to lockable and unlockable containers for electronic smoking articles, the containers including at least two concentric tubes, a locking mechanism retained therein, and an organizer configured to hold the articles.

A closure for use with a container in which the closure includes a polymeric top portion and a polymeric annular skirt portion. The skirt portion depends from the top portion. The skirt portion includes exterior and interior surfaces. The interior surface of the skirt portion includes crushable ribs and anti-rotational lugs. The crushable ribs are configured to be crushed when the closure is applied to the container so as to prevent or inhibit axial movement of the closure with respect to the container by forming an interference fit. At least one of the plurality of anti-rotational lugs prevents or inhibits rotational movement of the closure with respect to the container such that the closure remains on the container.

A child-resistant closure includes a polymeric top portion, a polymeric annular portion and a slidable lid. The polymeric top portion has an exterior surface. The polymeric top portion further includes a slide portal with a retention wall and at least one depression formed in a top surface thereof. The slide portal forms an aperture. The skirt portion depends from the polymeric top portion. The slidable lid includes at least one spring-retention mechanism and a retention projection extending from the slidable lid. The spring-retention mechanism is configured to be located in the depression when the closure is in a closed position. The slidable lid is configured to slide along the slide portal. The retention projection in conjunction with the retention wall assists in inhibiting removal of the slidable lid from the remainder of the closure.

A plastic-free, button-lock tube container comprising: a first tube assembly having a cylindrical body with an open end, a closed end, and a first opening formed in the wall of the body; a second tube assembly having a cylindrical body configured to telescopically interface with the first tube assembly along a portion of its length and having a second opening formed therein; a locking apparatus including a manually actuatable button and an elastically deformable structure mechanically coupled to the manually actuatable button such that, when the button-lock tube container is in a closed state, the elastically deformable structure applies an outward radial force to the manually actuatable button such that it projects through the first and second openings and prevents sliding motion between the first and second tube assemblies; wherein the first tube assembly, the second tube assembly, and the locking apparatus are plastic-free components.
