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.

A universal security implement for cannabis containers includes a security mechanism interface, a rim, and an immobilization implement. A user of the universal security implement for cannabis containers can fully secure a container by situating the universal security implement onto or into the container such that the immobilization implement fully precludes movement relative to the container. Moreover, the universal security implement's user may manipulate a security mechanism, such as a child-resistant cap, such that the security mechanism and the security mechanism interface interact to fully close and secure the contents within the container.

This invention is method of manufacturing of child-resistant and tamper-evident packaging container, which the cap having a tamper-evident feature on the top and a press-tab on the side wall. This cap provides both tamper-evident and child safety features to warn and protect consumers as well as dispensers such as: pharmacists, hospitals, medical centers, and manufacturers that the containers have not been opened and accurately reflect the number of pills in the container. The cap's distinctive feature enables the pharmacist and medical staff or provider to securely fasten by rotating it clockwise, while the patient turns the cap counterclockwise to open it for the first time. However, this process will break off the tamper-evident feature away from the outside cap, which indicates tampering and exposes the upper surface of the inner lid, where additional marking displays, i.e., “OPENED” to warn of tampering. The cap continues function a child-resistant container thereon.

Closure devices and kits allow closure of an open-ended container and provide a visible indication of closure torque. The closure device will include an outer cap defining a torque indicator window, an inner cap nested within the outer cap and a torque indicator disc positionally fixed to an upper surface of the inner cap and having at least two different indicia regions angularly adjacent to one another. The outer and inner caps are in mechanical interference fit with one another such that turning movement applied to the closure device allows the outer and inner caps to be turned as a unit and threadably coupled onto a threaded container until the inner cap is frictionally engaged with an edge of the container. Thereafter, continued turning movement of the outer cap relative to the inner cap causes angular displacement of the indicator window relative to the torque indicator to thereby provide a visible indication through the indicator window of an indicia region indicative of sufficient closure torque.

A child-resistant cap assembly for sealing a container having a container body and a container lip. The assembly comprises an inner cap configured to couple with the container body, a metal outer cap that retains the inner cap, and a plate disposed between the inner cap and the outer cap, axially and rotationally fixed to the outer cap. A female coupler can be attached to the top of the inner cap, and a male coupler can be attached to the bottom of the plate for optionally engaging the inner cap to the outer cap. When an adult optionally engages the outer cap with the inner cap, any rotation of the outer cap produces rotation of the inner cap, allowing the coupling or decoupling of the inner cap to or from the container body.

A selectively child-resistant cap assembly for a container having a container body and a container lip can include a metal inner cap configured to couple with the container body and a metal outer cap coupled to the inner cap. Each of the inner and outer caps can include a top and a shoulder. A first coupler can be coupled to the inner cap and a second coupler can be coupled to the outer cap for selectively engaging one another. A third coupler can be coupled to the outer cap. The cap assembly can be selectively coupled with the container body in a first closure position, wherein the inner cap is rotatably coupled with the container body, or a second closure position, wherein the top of the outer cap is disposed within the container body and the third coupler is coupled with the container lip.

A child-resistant cap assembly that is adapted to attach to the various shapes of the containers has an outer lid, an activate button body, an inner lid, and an optional desiccant basket for packaging container applications. The outer lid is adapted to receive and engage the rigid fingers when the activate button body assembly is depressed. The inner lid has latched grooves that position the rigid fingers. The rigid fingers are connected to a button with a flexible pivotable hinge and are radially moved upwards and / or outwards by a shaped protrusion or a ramp to engage circumferentially spaced grooves, allowing the cap assembly to be rotated counter-clockwise to disengage from the container. Clockwise rotation locks the cap assembly onto the container; otherwise, it functions as a child-safety feature.

A single-use container (1) for fluid products, particularly pharmaceutical, cosmetic, medical or similar products, according to the present invention comprises a containment body (10) closed by a closing means (20) removable along a predetermined breaking line (22), and an opening key (30) slidingly fitted onto the closing means (20) and prismatically rotationally engageable therewith to remove it from the containment body (10). The container (1) is characterized in that it comprises child-proof anti-tampering means in the form of axial counterthrust means. When an axial compression force acts on the opening key (30), said means are activated, thus generating an axial counterthrust upwards in the direction of the prismatic decoupling between the opening key (30) and the closing means (20).

Closure devices and kits allow closure of an open-ended container and provide a visible indication of closure torque. The closure device will include an outer cap defining a torque indicator window, an inner cap nested within the outer cap and a torque indicator disc positionally fixed to an upper surface of the inner cap and having at least two different indicia regions angularly adjacent to one another. The outer and inner caps are in mechanical interference fit with one another such that turning movement applied to the closure device allows the outer and inner caps to be turned as a unit and threadably coupled onto a threaded container until the inner cap is frictionally engaged with an edge of the container. Thereafter, continued turning movement of the outer cap relative to the inner cap causes angular displacement of the indicator window relative to the torque indicator to thereby provide a visible indication through the indicator window of an indicia region indicative of sufficient closure torque.
