Abstract
A childproof closure for bottles in general with easier operation and improved safety, including a hood, which can be rigidly coupled to a metal cap which can be screwed onto the neck of a bottle and the like, and an outer cap, which can be superimposed on the metal cap and the hood. Axial protrusions are provided on the base of the hood which can be detachably coupled to inner teeth formed by the outer cap. Elastic means are furthermore provided for axially spacing the bottom of the outer cap and the base of the hood and are suitable to allow the engagement of the axial protrusions and of the inner teeth in order to rigidly rotationally couple the outer cap and the hood when axial compression is applied to the outer cap.
Claims4
A childproof closure for bottles in general with easier operation and improved safety, comprising a metal cap which can be screwed onto the neck of a bottle, a hood rigidly coupleable to said metal cap, and an outer cap, which can be superimposed on said metal cap and said hood, axial protrusions being provided on a base of said hood which can be detachably coupled to inner teeth formed by said outer cap, elastic means being furthermore provided for axially spacing the bottom of said outer cap and the base of said hood and being adapted to allow the engagement of said axial protrusions and of said inner teeth in order to rigidly rotationally couple said outer cap and said hood by applying axial compression to said outer cap, wherein said hood has, at a lower part, an inner knurling which can be coupled to an outer knurling formed on said metal cap, an annular protrusion being furthermore provided which can engage a narrower portion located below the outer knurling of said metal cap in order to prevent the removal of said hood from said metal cap.
