Abstract

A closure assembly for use on a container neck finish has an inner cap which threadedly engages the neck finish and an outer cap which is received by the inner cap. Torque lugs on the outer cap cooperate with abutment formations on the inner cap such that rotation of the outer cap drives the inner cap onto the neck finish. Cooperative engagement between the two caps is achieved by downward axial movement of the outer cap. An arrangement of ramp sections on the inner cap and an arrangement of interior lugs on the outer cap provide an assist feature helping to pull the outer cap in the axially downward direction. Another feature of the closure assembly includes a spring-biasing relationship between the inner and outer caps. The inner cap also includes an abutment structure which cooperates with the container to limit drop test deformation of the container.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 61 / 905,488, filed November 18, 2013, which is incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] One configuration for a child resistant (CR) closure consists in using a combination of an inner cap and a cooperating outer cap. When the neck of the corresponding container has an external thread, the inner cap is usually constructed and arranged to have an internal thread which allows the inner cap to be securely assembled by screwing onto the neck of the bottle. The exemplary embodiments disclosed herein show a threaded connection, although other connection configurations between the inner cap and the container neck are contemplated. [0004] In order to incorporate a child-resistant feature or capability into the inner and outer lid configurations, the engagement between the two lids is used. The manner or method of enga...
