Closure device with opening indicator
Closure device comprising a base (100) and a lid (200) articulated by a hinge (205) comprising at least one opening indicator (207) allowing the user to know that a container has been opened at least once. Prior to the first opening, the opening indicator (207) is attached to the lid (200) by at least one separable connector (208), said separable connector (208) being broken on the opening of the container. The base (100) further comprises at least one housing (111) that receives the opening indicator (207) after its separation and shows it to the user through at least one window (112).
TAMPER-EVIDENT PACKAGING STRUCTURE INCORPORATED INTO A CONTAINER COVER AND AN ASSEMBLY
A container cover comprises two halves that are integrally-molded. The two halves are connected by a common pivot point or hinge that is disposed to one side of each half which allows the halves to be folded over and onto one another. One half is a solid cover or lid structure (the lid) and one half is a ring-like base structure (the base), both of which are intended to be disposed atop a container, with the base in direct contact with the container although the lid and base could be modified the include other engaging structure. The lid is configured to fit with and engage the base via the common hinge or pivot point. Opposite the hinge point of each structure is part of a lock structure that provides the tamper-evident functionality when the lid is folded over and attached to the base.
DISPOSABLE CONTAINER FOR FLUID PRODUCTS WITH CHILDPROOF TAMPER-EVIDENT MEANS
A single-use container for fluid products, particularly pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and medical products is provided. The single-use container has a containment body, a closing element removable along a predetermined breaking line, and an opening key slidingly fitted onto the closing element and prismatically rotationally engageable therewith to remove the closing element from the containment body. The single-use container has child-proof and anti-tampering elements. When an axial compression force acts on the opening key, the child-proof and anti-tampering elements generate an axial counterthrust upwards in direction of prismatic decoupling between the opening key and the closing element.
Container Covers and Methods of Using the Same
A cover for a container that includes a lid portion and a collar element. The lid portion having a main body section surrounded by a peripheral sealing shoulder. The collar element having a peripheral collar sealing shoulder that includes a collar groove and wherein the lid portion is connected to the collar portion through a hinge element. The lid portion, collar element and hinge portion are formed as a unitary structure and the lid portion articulates from an open positon in which it is spaced apart from the collar element to a closed position wherein the peripheral bead sealing shoulder of the lid portion engages with the peripheral collar sealing shoulder of the collar element.
Tamper-evident closure
A closure (100) for a container (104) comprises a base (106) and a spout (110) disposed upon a mouth of said container (104) and defining a void space (134) between them; a cap (118) which comprises an inner body (124) concentrically disposed within an outer body (122), said cap configured to be disposed on said base (106) so as to seal therewith; and at least one tamper-evident device (136) extending between and locking together said cap (118) and said base (106), said tamper-evident device (136) comprising a flattened member extending from an edge of said inner body member (124) over at least one frangible link (140) and engaging said base (106) such that when the cap (118) is opened said at least one frangible link (140) ruptures, said tamper-evident device (136) consequently falling into and being partially obscured by said void space (134).
CONTAINER AND CAP HAVING TAMPER-EVIDENT MEMBER
A container includes a container body with a projection and a cap with a cover member, an inner member, and an outer member. The inner member is threadably engaged to the neck of the container body and is supported for movement between a first threaded position and a second threaded position relative to the container body. The outer member depends from the cover member and extends at least partly about the inner member and an axis. The outer member includes a tamper-evident member that includes an abutment member configured to engage with the projection to limit movement of the cap from the first threaded position to the second threaded position. Also, the tamper-evident member is permanently deformable to disengage the projection and allow movement of the cap from the first threaded position to the second threaded position.
RECLOSABLE CONTAINER WITH PROTECTION FOR THE DISPENSING MOUTH
A reclosable container for fluid products is provided. The reclosable container has a containment body provided with a neck ending in a dispensing mouth, and a closure member having a gripping element beneath which lies a stopper tip for closing the dispensing mouth and a removable collar associated with the gripping element along a preestablished break area and rigidly attachable to the neck. In a closed configuration, the dispensing mouth is completely covered by the closure member so that it is not possible for a user's fingers to come into contact with the dispensing mouth when opening the container, avoiding contamination of calibrated drops of the fluid products.
Dual-seal liner and non-removable closure assembly
Non-removable closure assembly that resists rotational movement so as to be rendered substantially non-removable by the consumer. An induction heat seal liner is provided for sealing the finish (open end or mouth) of a plastic container, the liner being disposed between a closure cap and the container finish and being heat seal bonded to both, thus rendering the closure cap non-removable from the container finish. By non-removable it is meant that once heat seal bonded together the closure cap cannot be removed by a customer or consumer (a human) by hand, without substantially distorting the closure cap or container, e.g., it would require the human to use a mechanical tool (e.g., knife or wrench) and in the process of trying to remove the cap with the tool it would substantially deform the closure cap or container and render one or more of them unusable for their intended purpose.
OUTER CAP FOR A CHILD-RESISTANT CLOSURE, CHILD-RESISTANT CLOSURE, CONTAINER WITH SUCH CLOSURE AND ITS USE
A child-resistant closure for a container with an outer screw thread opening, including an outer cap with a first sidewall and a first top wall and an inner cap with a second sidewall and a second top wall, the inner cap being coaxially nested within the outer cap and being provided with an inner thread to screw the inner cap onto the container. The outer cap and the inner cap include a first cooperating engagement means, and a second cooperating engagement means wherein the second cooperating engagement means includes a plurality of strip-like elastic members wherein each strip-like elastic member is inclined relative to the first top wall and includes a reinforcing element arranged between the first or second top wall and the strip-like elastic member connected thereto.
CONNECTABLE SAFETY CONTAINERS
A linkable child-proof safety container that includes corresponding slide locks.
