摘要
The present invention involves a container (1) and cap which is generally childproof and may be rendered non-childproof permanently. The invention involves a container (1) having a cylindrical neck (3) at the top and threads (5) molded about the exterior of the neck as well as an inner cap (7) and outer cap (21). The inner cap (7) has a top (9) and cylindrical side wall (11) with threads (13) molded on the inside of the side wall (11) so as to mate with the threads (5) of the container (1). The top (9) or side of the inner cap (7) has ratchet type segments (15) on its outside and the outer cap (21) has ratchet type segments (27, 29) on the inside of its top (23) or side (25). The outer cap (21) has a cylindrical side wall (25) and is usually freely rotatable about the inner cap (7) so as to be childproof. When in the childproof configuration as described, downward pressure is required by the user so as to engage the two ratchet type segments (15, 27, 29) and thereby engage the two caps (7, 21) to permit opening. Further, the outer cap (21) has an opening (37) in its side wall (25) at a level near the bottom of the side wall (11) of the inner cap (7) and also has integrally attached thereto a flexible connector (31) and stop (33). The flexible connector (31) and stop (33) are located so as to permit insertion of the stop (33) into the opening (37) so as to extend beyond the opening (37) and push up the inner cap (7) so as to permanently lock it into a position wherein the inner cap and outer cap ratchet type segments (15, 27, 29) are permanently engaged. This renders the cap permanently non-childproof.
