Safety cap

Abstract

The present invention relates to a safety cap which is screwed onto an upper portion of a container body in which contents are stored so as to open/close the outlet of a container. The safety cap of the present invention is configured such that, when an outer cap rotates in a closing direction, a stopper protrusion of the outer cap is brought into contact with a protrusion of an inner cap and the outer cap and the inner cap rotate together, thus enabling the container to be easily closed and automatically capped during a manufacturing process.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a safety cap, and in particular to a safety cap which has features in that an engaging protrusion of an outer cap comes into contact with a protrusion piece of an inner cap when an outer cap rotates in a closing direction, so the outer cap and the inner cap rotate together, so a closing work is easy, and an automatic capping process can be implemented during a manufacture process.Background Art[0002]A cap is generally designed to prevent the contents stored in a container body from discharging to the outside as it is capped at the top of the container body while preventing contamination of contents.[0003]The above mentioned cap is so designed that anyone can easily open and close as it rotates on one or the other direction because it is screwed to the threads of a container body. With this construction, a kid who lacks discernment may open easily the cap thus spilling the contents, which results in over consumption of the content...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0015]The present invention provides a safety cap which has features in that an engaging protrusion of an outer cap comes into contact with a protrusion piece of an inner cap when an outer cap rotates in a closing direction, so the outer cap and the inner cap rotate together, so a closing work is easy, and an automatic capping process can be implemented during a manufacture process.

[0016]In addition, the present invention has advantages in that the cap can be opened only when it is rotated in a state that a rotation indication part of an inner cap is pressurized, so a kid who does not know the above construction is prevented from opening the cap and can be protected from a possible intake of contents harmful to a human body while preventing unnecessary consumption of the contents.

Problems solved by technology

With this construction, a kid who lacks discernment may open easily the cap thus spilling the contents, which results in over consumption of the contents.

In particular, in case that the container body stores contents harmful to a human body, a kid may drink the contents without knowing what is in the container body, so a serious accident may happen.

The conventional safety cap can help a kind not to easily open, however it is configured for the cap to be closed only when the holding part 12 is held when closing the cap, so it is not easy to close due to the holding part 12 with a narrow width, thus causing inconvenience to the user when in use.

In addition, since the closing of the cap is performed holding the holding part 12, the automatic capping process is impossible during the manufacture process, so the capping should be performed in a manual way, and it takes long for the sake of capping.
