Definitions

  • ABSTRACT [22] Filed: Apr. 16, 1973
  • the invention contemplates a child-resistant safety cap and bottle-neck combination wherein the cap has [2]] Appl 351266 a threaded engagement to the neck but wherein a Related US. Application Data ratcheting one-way engagement relation develops be- [63] Continuationin-part of Sert No. 313,801, Dec. ll tween the bottle and the neck m approach to the 1972, abandone closed relation of the parts.
  • This invention relates to bottles adapted to contain hazardous substances, and more particularly relates to safety closures for such bottles which render them child-resistant, i.e., resistant to tampering by children.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a new and improved safety cap for a bottle which is economical to manufacture and readily lends itself to automatic production line facilities for filling and capping a bottle.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a new and improved safety cap and bottle combination in which the cap is readily locked onto the bottle but may be unlocked therefrom by a very simple manipulation of a locking member.
  • a still further object is to meet the above objects with a construction of inherent low cost, involving minimum alteration of present constructions.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a closed bottle-andcap engagement of the invention
  • FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the parts of FIG. 1, the cap being tilted up for a better showing of detail;
  • FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the locking member of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is a view in perspective of the part of FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 5 is a view similar to FIG. 3 to illustrate a modification.
  • the invention is shown in application to a container bottle having an integral threaded neck 11 and selectively opened and closed by a cap 12 having a threaded bore 13.
  • the bottle may be of any suitable material such as glass, metal or plastic, but is shown in the style of a blow-molded plastic bottle.
  • Cap 12 may be of any suitable construction, being typically an injection-molded plastic part, for the ,case of a plastic bottle 10.
  • the bottle neck nonrotatably carries axially resilient lockingprojection means in the region between the threads 14 and the base end 15 of the neck.
  • locking-projection means may be formed integrally with the bottle 11, but in the form shown the locking-projection means is a separate ring-shaped part 16, which may be injection-molded of suitable plastic.
  • Ring 16 is intended to be a permanently assembled non-rotatable part of the neck 11 beneath the threaded region thereof. It thus may be force-fitted, bonded, or merely keyed to neck 11. As shown, key grooves 17 in the bore of ring 16 have non-rotatable engagement with a nib or ribs 18 formed integrally with neck 11, ring 16 being axially retained upon seating abutment with the base end 15 of the neck.
  • One or more resilient locking devices 19-19 project radially from the body of ring 16 and are each provided with a ramp tooth 20, for ratcheting engagement with a series of teeth 21 at the lower (open) end of the skirt of cap 12; projections 19-19 must be axially downwardly deflectable from the at-rest positions shown in FIGS.
  • the radial projections 1919 also extend over an arc a, about the neck axis, the same being provided by a slit 22 of extent a, between projections 19-19 and the adjacent body of ring 16.
  • the effective angular extent a, over which projections 19-19 are integrally united to the body of ring 16 is at least substantially the angular extent 04, and the radial width AR of projections 19-19 is substantially less than the length. of the slits 22.
  • the outer radial limit of projections 19-19 exceeds that of the open end of the cap skirt, to an extent enabling finger-actuation.
  • the ramp directions at 20 and 21 are selected to provide ratcheting escape for thread-on advance of cap and neck engagement, upon approach to the full threaded relation; in the thread-off direction of rotation, the teeth 20-21 are locked by engaged flat surfaces each of which extends radially in a plane through the neck axis.
  • tooth height i.e., axial extent
  • tooth height in relation to the pitch or threaded advance of threads 14 is such that ratcheting action occurs only after considerable threaded engagement and in close approach to the home or fully closed position of the cap on the neck; at the fully closed position, the resilient action of the axially deflected teeth 20 is sufficient to assure a fully locked engagement of teeth 20-21, as will be understood.
  • the cap 12 In use, the cap 12 is set in place and threaded-on to neck 1 1, as for one or more turns, prior to any escaping engagement of teeth 20-21.
  • one tooth period (a FIG. 2) is the most that cap 12 can be unthreaded before encountering the locked condition at 20-21.
  • the one or more projections 19 (19) To remove the cap, the one or more projections 19 (19) must be axially depressed to effect disengagement at 20-21, whereupon the cap may be threadedoff in the usual manner.
  • the effective angular position of tooth 20a with respect to tooth 20a should be such that a locked engagement of tooth 20a with one of the teeth 21 will mean an offset, or less-than-locked, engagement of tooth 2001' with its next-adjacent one of teeth 21; stated in other words, for a two-tooth arrangement, the effective separation of teeth 20a -20a is preferably an odd-integer multiple of one half of the effective pitch spacing of teeth 21.
  • the tooth spacing of adjacent teeth on ring 16 is preferably a multiple X of the pitch angle (04;, 21r/n), divided by N,
  • an effective angular offset a exists between tooth 20a and an adjacent one of the teeth 21, for the condition that the other tooth 20a is fully engaged to a tooth 21, the said offset being preferably 7.5 [(21'r/24X21r radian) in the case of FIG. 5.
  • the incremental advance between successive ratchet-held positions of the cap and bottle neck is one half that obtainable for FIG. 3, wherein both teeth 20 were positioned for simultaneous engagement with spaced teeth in the cap series 21; thus, the arrangement of FIG. 5 provides the advantage of more reliably securing a liquid-sealing closure by cap 12, by more finely dividing the number of available ratcheting positions, for a given number of teeth 21.
  • a bottle including an externally threaded neck, an internally threaded cap having a skirt removably engageable to the threaded neck, a plurality of axially resilient locking projections nonrotatably carried on the outside of said neck beneath the threaded region and spaced from the base of said neck, said projections being in radial overlap with said skirt and being at angularly spaced locations about the axis of said neck, the open end of said skirt having a circumferentially extending downwardly directed series of teeth in one-way engageable relation with said locking projections near the closed relation of said cap and neck, the direction of one-way co-action being that of escapement in the thread-on direction and engagement in the thread-off direction, and said projections extending sufficiently radially outward of said cap in the closed position to enable finger-actuated disengagement of said locking projections from said teeth, whereby the cap may then be unthreaded, the effective separation of said locking projections being substantially a multiple X of the pitch angle characterizing said series of teeth,
  • a bottle including an externally threaded neck, an internally threaded cap having a skirt removably engageable to the threaded neck, a locking ring non-rotatably carried by the outside of said neck and beneath the threaded region thereof.
  • said ring including two like integral angularly spaced and axially resilient locking projections in radial overlap with said skirt and spaced from the base of said neck.
  • the open end of said skirt having a circumferentially extending downwardly directed series of teeth in one-way engageable relation with said locking projections near the closed relation of said cap and neck, the direction of one-way co-action being that of escapement in the thread-on direction and engagement in the thread-off direction, the effective separation of said locking projections being substantially an odd integer multiple of one half the pitch angle characterizing said series of teeth. and said projections extending sufficiently radially outward of said cap in the closed position to enable finger-actuated disengagement of said locking projection from said teeth. whereby the cap may then be unthreaded.
