A childproof container apparatus, system and method. The apparatus, system and method may include a container body having therewithin a cavity; a cap capable of providing access to the cavity when opened; a collar about the container body and capable of impeding access to the cap; and at least one safety feature suitable, upon actuation, to allow the collar to slide to remove the impedance to accessing the cap. The container may further include a tamper evidencing feature at least partially physically associated with the cap. The at least one safety feature may include a plurality of tabs, or one or more buttons.

A child-resistant container including a container body, a lid, and at least one resilient tab is provided. The lid is pivotable about an axis through a hinge joining the lid to the container body to open and close the container. The resilient tab has a proximal portion fixed to the lid, a distal portion projecting from the lid, and at least one abutment on the distal portion. The abutment on the distal portion of the tab is normally biased into engagement with an abutment on the container body when the lid is in its closed position. The distal portion of the tab is displaceable against the bias to disengage the abutment of the tab from the abutment of the container. Displacement of the tab releases the lid so that it can be pivoted about the hinge to open the container.

A container (20) includes a body (22) defining an interior and an opening (32) that leads to the interior. A cap (24) is removably affixed over the opening and is movable between a closed position and an opened position. The cap includes a front tab (52) having an undersurface (54). A child resistant closure in the form of a guard (56) having a depressible wall (58) is located on the body and is movable between an engaged position and a disengaged position. When in the engaged position the guard covers the undersurface of the front tab to prevent the cap from being moved to the opened position. When in the disengaged position the undersurface of the front tab is exposed, enabling the cap to be moved to the opened position.

A child resistant and/or senior friendly dispensing system may include a housing, an insert plate for attaching multiple unitary dose containers and that can slide in and out of the housing and a locking means for locking the insert plate to the housing. The locking means may include a locking clip that can extend or retract to realize locking or releasing of the insert plate. The locking means enables a user to open the insert plate only when squeezing the locking clip inward with sufficient force with one hand and pulling the insert plate with another hand simultaneously. The housing may have one or more locking holes on the side walls and the locking clip may have one or more locking tabs positioned to mate with the locking holes. The system may have a sensor network and a circuitry to monitor the dispensing of unitary dose and output the result.

Child-resistant covers for a lid are presented including: a planar surface; arcuate side surfaces disposed perpendicular to the planar surface, the arcuate side surfaces positioned equidistant from one another and creating gaps that provide fingertip access to the lid; and a number of locking tabs disposed along a lower edge of each of the arcuate side surfaces to capture the lid. In some embodiments, child-resistant covers further include: a number of tamper-evident seals disposed along the gaps.

A sealable container system made of biodegradable materials, including a generally cylindrical, inwardly sloping container body having flattened side portions with holes therein, and a generally cylindrical, inwardly sloping cap with outwardly projecting tabs that are received into the holes to secure the cap onto the container. Inward pressure preleases the tabs from the holes so the cap can be removed without twisting.

The possibility that a child inadvertently unlocks a child-resistant vial by triggering the latch with his teeth is avoided by preventing access to the latch from under the cap. This is achieved by covering all sides of the latch with the exception of the front face thereof intended to be used to trigger the latch while the cap is lifted. Improvement of the humidity barrier in such a vial is achieved by closing the vial container with a cap including a recess that defines inner and outer peripheral walls in the cap. The inner and outer walls together define an annular gap that is configured to complementary receive the peripheral flange of the container. Both the edge of the inner wall of the cap and the inner peripheral wall of the container are provided with sealing rings that are axially distanced when the cap closes the vial container.

A package comprising at least one layer of biodegradable material and containing a plurality of unit dose products, at least one unit dose product comprising a detergent composition within a sealed compartment formed by a water soluble film, said film being printed on an inner surface, facing the detergent composition.

Disclosed herein are containers. Also disclosed are meth-ods using the containers and methods of storing substances in containers. The containers suitably have a glass base and a plastic cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the cap from base. For example, the user squeezes opposite corners of the container cap, which releases a locking mechanism and allows for removal of the cap by lifting or pulling the container cap off from the container base.

A dispenser for dispensing product that includes a dispenser body having first and second interior sections, a lid, and a release mechanism. Product in the first interior section passes through an opening in the second interior portion and into an inner channel for dispensing. The inner channel includes a prong that prevent product from reverting back to the first interior section. The lid includes a lip that, when the dispenser is closed, creates a seal about the inner channel. When the dispenser is to be opened, the user may activate the release mechanism, which includes an upper portion and an activation portion. The user inwardly presses the release activation portion, which deflects or bends a portion of the inner channel away from the lip. The user may also downwardly press on the release mechanism to release the upper portion from engagement with the lip and the sidewall.
