Cap and container assemblies
A cap and container assembly includes a container having a base and a side wall extending upward from the base. The base and the side wall define an interior, and the side wall defines an opening leading to the interior. A cap moves with respect to the container between an opened position in which the opening is exposed, and a closed position in which the cap covers the opening. A tab projects outward from the cap and has a bottom surface. A spacer projects from the container side wall at a location beneath the tab when the assembly is in the closed position. The spacer bends inward towards the container in response to application of a sufficient force, to move from a locked position that blocks the bottom surface of the tab, to an unlocked position to expose at least a portion of the bottom surface of the tab.
MODULAR SYSTEM FOR INVENTORY AND TRANSPORT EFFICIENCY OF PACKAGING
Disclosed herein are modular container systems having child-resistant containers, tray inserts and tray frames. Also disclosed are methods using the modular container systems and methods of storing substances in containers. The containers have a container base and a container cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the container cap from container base with a squeeze and lift sequence. For example, the user squeezes opposite sides of the container base, which releases a locking mechanism and allows for removal of the cap by lifting or pulling the container cap off from the container base. The components of the modular container system are modular and stackable. The modular system allow for organized, efficient, accessible and storage of the child-resistant containers. The modular container system also allows for easy counting, sorting and processing of the containers.

LOCKABLE VIAL SLEEVE AND RELATED SYSTEMS AND METHODS
A lockable vial sleeve assembly includes a sleeve configured to house a vial, the sleeve defining a body and a first opening provided at one end of the body, the first opening configured to receive the vial therethrough. A locking member is configured to pivotably lock to the sleeve adjacent the one end. The vial is insertable into the body through the first opening, and in response to the locking member being pivotably locked to the sleeve, the locking member at least partially closes the first opening to restrict withdrawal of the vial through the first opening.
FLUID TRANSFER COUPLINGS
Fluid transfer couplings or connectors including dual function press-in bottle adaptors supporting different syringe types, connectors having a universal port for supporting different syringe types, transfer couplings compatible for use with different syringe types. Other caps and closures incorporating couplings for fluid transfer with different syringe types is also disclosed.
ASEPTIC BIOPROCESS PACKAGE
An aseptic bioprocess package is provided herein. The aseptic bioprocess package includes a 2D flexible container including an interior compartment, a height having an upper half and a lower half, an inlet and an outlet, the inlet and the outlet being disposed on the same half of the 2D flexible container and a channel-forming feature in the interior compartment of the container, the channel-forming feature being configured to maintain a fluid flow path that fluidly connects the interior compartment of the flexible container with the outlet.
Integrated cap and seal system
A cap and seal system for a liquid medicament container. The system comprises a cap formed from a substantially rigid material, and has a retention component integrally formed therewith. A seal is formed from a material which is less hard than the cap and positioned within the cap such that, when the retaining component retains the cap on a container in use the seal is positioned such that it forms a fluid tight seal between the cap and the container. A recess is formed in the seal through which a liquid outlet channel can pass in use to access the contents of the container via the cap and the seal.
CONTAINER CLOSED WITH A PRESS-FIT CAP
At least one closed container includes a glass container having a total height, being characterized by a center axis and including a shoulder region; and a press-fit cap closing the glass container and including a cylindrical body having an upper end and a lower end. P is any given point at the lower end of the press-fit cap that is located above the shoulder region and that lies on a straight line running parallel to the center axis and hitting an outer surface of the shoulder region at a point Q. Among these points P at the lower end of the press-fit cap point P′ is the one that has a smallest distance to its corresponding point Q′ and a distance between points P′ and Q′ on the straight line is in a range from 0.17 to 8.4 mm.
NEEDLE-LESS ACCESS VIAL AND CAP FOR THE ASEPTIC SAMPLING AND STORAGE OF LIQUIDS
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a vial cap is configured for sealing attachment to a tube set and to a vial having a hollow interior configured for receiving and storing a liquid sample. The vial cap may comprise an axially extending cylindrical wall and a radially extending cap top disposed within the cylindrical wall, wherein the cap top has an upper surface and a lower surface. The vial cap may include at least two exterior tubes extending upwardly from the upper surface of the cap top, wherein each exterior tube defines a passageway configured to communicate with the tube set. The vial cap may further include at least two interior tubular structures extending downwardly from the lower surface of the cap top, wherein the at least two interior tubular structures each define a passageway configured to communicate with one of the exterior tubes and the hollow interior.
TAMPER EVIDENT PLASTIC CLOSURE FOR VIALS FOR STORING SUBSTANCES FOR MEDICAL OR PHARMACEUTICAL APPLICATIONS AND USE THEREOF
The invention relates to a tamper evident plastic closure for necked vials, for holding a plug in a mouth of a vial, comprising: a tubular locking body configured to be locked at the neck of the vial, and a cap coupled with the tubular locking body. The tubular locking body comprises a retaining member for retaining the plug, a central opening being formed in the retaining member for providing access to the inside of the vial via the plug. The cap comprises a disc-shaped cover and a coupling portion, for coupling the cap with the tubular locking body by positive-fit engagement. The coupling portion comprises at least one frangible portion each configured such that at least one indicator member remains as a tamper evidence at a rim of the central opening of the tubular locking body after removal of the cap from the distal end of the tubular locking body by irreversibly breaking the annular frangible portion for providing access to the inside of the vial via the plug.
