One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a device that can be used to seal an opening of a package to mitigate loss of package contents, and to effectively transfer contents of the package to a target device or system. The device can comprise a base cap that engages with a package opening, such as a fitment, and a nozzle portion. Alternately, the fitment may comprise a fixedly engaged base. The nozzle portion can comprise a portion that selectably engages with two or more target systems, such as through a filling port, and may also selectably engage with a closing cap that can be used to close the opening, by sealing a spout portion of the nozzle.

A bottle cap retaining device comprises a flap cap configured to retain a bottle cap to a bottle and includes a lever extending from a lateral side of the flap cap and a grip extending convexly from a crown of the flap cap to the brake configured to stop the angular movement of the lever against the bottle. The device also includes a bi-tether connected to the flap cap in two places. The device additionally includes an O-ring connected to the bi-tether in two places, the O-ring includes a boss and a skirt, the boss configured on a lateral portion of the O-ring to inhibit a torque of the O-ring and the skirt configured on a bottom portion of the O-ring to provide a frictional surface against the bottle. The flap cap also comprises teeth or helical threads configured to hold a bottle cap or act in its place.

A cap is configured to be securely attached to a bottle, such as a medication bottle, and includes a base having a first compartment that contains a power source and a second compartment that is below the first compartment. The second compartment is defined by a peripheral side wall that includes on an inner surface thereof one or more locking tabs. The cap also includes an insert that is configured to be received within the second compartment. The insert includes a peripheral side wall and further including inner threads that are configured to threadingly mate with outer threads of the bottle for securely attaching the cap to the bottle. The insert includes a locking lip that snap-fittingly mate with the one or more locking tabs to detachably attach the insert to the base within the second compartment.

The present invention relates to a container (10) and a lid (14), wherein the lid produces audible and tactile feedback when the container is closed with the lid. The invention further relates to a method for forming a lid for engagement with a container. A container with a lid includes at least one thread (20) on a neck of the container; at least one thread (30) on the lid; a bump (32) at the lower part of the lid; an end stop (22) on a lower end of the neck; and an engagement portion of the neck corresponding to an area where the bump of the lid will engage the neck when the lid is in a fully engaged position. The engagement portion (24) is arranged such that audible feedback and tactile feedback are produced when the lid moves into a fully engaged position.

The subject matter described herein includes a safety device for a tank having a fluid material therein. The safety device includes a tank collar wherein the collar is threaded on an inner facing circumference and defines a groove on an outer facing circumference. The tank collar is engageably received by the tank by threadably engaging the threaded inner facing circumference with a correspondingly threaded outer facing surface of the tank. The safety device also includes a cap having a locking collar formed about an open end of the cap, wherein the collar defines apertures circumferentially spaced around an inner circumference thereof. The cap includes a locking ring configured for being translatably engaged with the locking collar. The cap includes at least one ball bearing that is received within one of the apertures. The at least one ball bearing is retractable and extendable within the aperture.

A seal and method of forming a seal for a resealable container includes a removable cap that is selectively received over a pour opening formed in a can body. A seal is adhered to the end wall of the cap and includes a continuous, first axial region extending outwardly from the inner surface of the cap. The seal first region is dimensioned for engagement with the opening in the container and sealing the container along an inner diameter thereof. Reduced on-torque/off-torque are required since the seal is formed on the inner diameter, and a down force is substantially reduced to assemble the cap to the container.

An aerosol container includes a main body portion that is constructed and arranged to withstand aerosol pressurization within a range that is about 90-180 psig and a threaded finish portion that is unitary with the main body portion. The threaded finish portion has at least one helical thread, a support ledge beneath the helical thread and a secondary flange that is positioned beneath the support ledge. The secondary flange has an outer circumference that is noncircular in at least one location, whereby it may be engaged during a capping operation to prevent rotation of the container during capping. A method of making an aerosol container in which a preform is capped before the blow molding process is also disclosed.

A closure combination (101) comprising a dispensing closure body (102) and a container neck (103). The dispensing closure body (102) and container neck (103) comprise co-operable screw threads (104, 105) that allow the dispensing closure body (102) to be screwed onto the container neck (103) into an engaged condition. The co-operable screw threads (104, 105) prevent the dispensing closure body (102) from being unscrewed from the container neck (103) after the dispensing closure body (102) has been screwed onto the container neck (103) into a locked condition. A dispensing closure body (102) comprising an internal screw thread (10) that comprises a reversed-thread run out portion (107). A container with a container neck (103) comprising an external screw thread (105) that comprises a reversed-thread run out portion (108). A method of providing a tamper-resistance container closure combination (101).

A snap-on/twist off closure (22), a package comprising the closure, e.g., a bottle in combination with the closure is disclosed. The closure includes an upper wall defining an opening and a cylindrical snap on pipe (30) depending from the upper wall. The pipe includes threads designed to mate with external threads on a neck of the bottle. The threads on the pipe and threads on the neck of the bottle pass over each other when the closure is snapped onto the bottle during manufacture. The pipe includes a resistance recess (42) and a guidance recess (70). A bottom rim of the pipe, the resistance recess and the guidance recess are in contact with a forcing element (50) on a shoulder of the bottle and guide the closure into positions permitting unscrewing of the closure
