    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
  • The conventional press-open type storage device has the following three types of relative imperfections:
    1. 1. The press-open type closure is detached from the storage device after being pressed so as to mix with the stored contents.
    2. 2. The press-open type closure is not completely detached after being pressed to open, when the pressing pressure disappears, the closure is bounced back to hider the dispense of contents;
    3. 3. If the press-open type closure is opened by applying an instant pressure to deform the storage device, whereas the closure is partially opened to release the pressure immediately, and the closure can still be bounced back.
