Abstract:
A child-resistant closure for a container includes outer and inner nested caps each having a top panel and a side skirt depending generally peripherally therefrom, said outer cap loosely generally encompassing said inner cap to allow relative rotary and axial movement there between. The outer and inner caps have corresponding drive formations which can be brought into driving engagement when the caps are moved axially towards one another to a first axial position. The external surface of the inner cap side skirt includes one or more axial ribs for allowing venting when the outer and inner caps are initially assembled together. The inner cap top panel is provided with a plurality of castellations, and each rib connects to an edge of a respective castellation.

Claim (Index 20):
An inner cap for a child-resistant container closure of the type comprising outer and inner nested caps each having a top panel and a side skirt depending generally peripherally therefrom, said outer cap loosely generally encompassing said inner cap to allow relative rotary and axial movement there between, the outer and inner caps having corresponding drive formations which can be brought into driving engagement when the caps are moved axially towards one another to a first axial position, one of the inner and outer caps comprising one or more spring members for urging the inner and outer caps axially away from each other to a second axial position, the other of the inner and outer caps comprising one or more ramps, the spring member(s) providing a biasing force to maintain said outer and inner caps in the second axial position and drivingly engaging the ramps in the second axial position so as to drive the outer and inner caps together in a screwing direction, but slipping over the ramp(s) freely in an unscrewing direction, downward pressure on the outer cap overcoming the spring finger bias to move the caps to the first axial position to allow unscrewing of the closure using the inner and outer cap drive formations, in which the external surface of the inner cap side skirt includes one or more axial ribs for allowing venting when the outer and inner caps are initially assembled together.
