Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008073151A1] A dual-action child-resistant package (20) includes a container (26) having a neck finish(24) with an open mouth, at least one external thread segment 28), and at least one external lug(30). A closure(22) has a peripheral skirt (36), at least one internal thread segment (38), at least one internal lug 46) on the skirt for engagement with the external lug on the neck finish, and a flexible resilient spring (54) for engaging the neck finish and biasing the closure away from the neck finish. The closure is removable from the neck finish by: (1) squeezing the skirt to ovalize the skirt such that the internal lug on the skirt moves radially outwardly from the external lug on the neck finish whereupon the closure can be unthreaded from the neck finish, and (2) pushing the closure over the neck finish against the spring until the cam surface on the external lug engages the internal angled cam surface on the skirt to ovalize the skirt until the internal lug on the skirt moves radially outwardly from the external lug on the neck finish whereupon the closure can be unthreaded from the neck finish.
