Abstract:
1. An eyewash dispensing container comprising: a base presenting a storage cavity in which eyewash fluid is contained, said base including a neck that defines an opening in communication with the storage cavity to permit fluid to be discharged from the base; a fluid dispensing cap sealingly secured to the base in a covering relationship with the opening, said dispensing cap including a fluid outlet through which fluid is discharged from the storage cavity, said dispensing cap including a cap skirt circumscribing the neck of the base, with the cap skirt and neck cooperatively presenting interlocking structure to restrict removal of the dispensing cap from the base; and a removable closure sealingly overlying the dispensing cap to prevent fluid dispensing until removed, said removable closure providing tamper indication once removed so as to facilitate only single use of the container, said dispensing cap further including a splashguard that presents an ocular-engagement edge shaped to conform to a facial contour, said splashguard and said neck being at least substantially aligned and in direct contact when the dispensing cap is secured to the base, with at least a portion of the ocular-engagement edge and the neck being aligned, such that the neck increases the structural integrity of the splashguard when the ocular-engagement edge is pressed against the facial contour.
