Embodiment Construction

[0042] The present disclosure relates to container systems, closure systems, and related methods. More specifically, the locking system of the present disclosure may comprise at least two buttons that must be operated, for example by sliding them towards each other, in order to open the locking system. Two buttons can be operated by a single adult hand, providing convenient and intuitive operability. The latching system may also be configured such that if only one button is operated and / or if the buttons are not operated simultaneously, the latching system will remain securely closed.

[0043]The two buttons may be part of a single, preferably monolithic, fixing member which may be connected to the rest of the latching system and may even include a spring system. When the securing member is a single piece with at least two buttons (and optionally a spring system), the latching system can be more conveniently assembled than a system with separate separate buttons.

Abstract

A container system, suitable for containing contents such as consumer products, comprises a container body (2) and a closure system including a hinged lid (4) and a securing member (30). The lid (4) is openable when first and second buttons (31, 32) located on said securing member (30) are moved from respective first positions to respective second positions, thereby disengaging a first interlocking member from a complementary second interlocking member.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to container systems, closure systems, and methods related thereto. Background technique [0002] Certain consumer products, such as unit dose detergent sachets, are often sold and stored in containers with secure closure systems. A locking system is intended to prevent or inhibit the unintended opening of a container. In order to operate such latching systems, a user may have to manipulate the latching system in a specific way, such as by performing two separate actions simultaneously or in a specific sequence. Designing a latching system that is both robust and intuitive to use is challenging. [0003] Many secure latching systems require direct manipulation and deformation of the cover and / or the frame surrounding the cover, such as by pressing or pulling a tab or latch, in order for the system to be unlocked and opened. However, upon repeated use, the cover and / or frame may suffer permanent deformation or loss of e...
