Metal Child Resistant Container

Abstract

A metal child resistant container with a screw lid that comprises a main body, an inner cap that screws on to the main body forming an air tight seal, and an outer cap that is located over the inner cap. The outer cap prevents the user from directly interacting with the inner cap and requires the user to apply pressure to the outer cap. The inner cap has indentions that match with similar indentions stamped in or attached to the outer cap. When pressure is applied to the outer cap the inner cap and outer cap mover as one allowing the container to the open and closed.

What is claimed:

   an inner cap,
 wherein the inner cap contains threads to screw the inner cap to the container body, and indentations stamped into the inner cap; 
   an outer cap, wherein the outer cap rests over the inner cap and has indentation or protrusions' stamped into or attached to the outer cap that can fit in the indentations on the inner cap;
 wherein when pressure is applied to the outer cap and container body the indentations on the inner cap and outer cap provide enough friction to allow the outer cap and inner cap to move as one and screw the inner cap onto or off of the container body. 
   
     
     
         2 . The child resistant container of  claim 1  where the indentations consist of as two indentations, a single linear indentation, a curved indentation, or multiple indentions, of two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or more equally, or unequally spaced indentations. 
     
     
         3 . The child resistant container of  claim 1 , wherein the container body and outer cap form a seamless edge. 
     
     
         4 . The child resistant container of  claim 1 , wherein the pinched neck on the container body has a single thread that travel one rotation around the pinched neck. 
     
     
         5 . The child resistant container of  claim 1 , further comprising a viewing window. 
     
     
         6 . The child resistant container of  claim 1 , wherein the container body is cup shaped or bowl shaped. 
     
     
         7 . The child resistant container of  claim 1 , wherein the indentations have a working edge, and an open edge, the working edge is 70-80 degrees from the horizontal and the open edge is 40-60 degrees from the horizontal. 
     
     
         8 . A child resistant container comprising:
 a container body;
 wherein the container body is a container with a closed base and an open top; the open top has a recessed lip leading to a pinched neck that is threaded; 
   an inner cap,
 wherein the inner cap contains threads to screw the inner cap to the container body, and indentations stamped into the inner cap; 
   an outer cap, wherein the outer cap rests over the inner cap;   a locking plate,
 wherein the locking plate has indentations that match the indentions in the inner cap; 
 wherein the locking plate is connected to the outer cap; and 
 wherein when pressure is applied to the outer cap and container body the indentations on the inner cap and locking plate provide enough friction to allow the outer cap and inner cap to move as one and screw the inner cap onto or off of the container body. 
   
     
     
         9 . The child resistant container of  claim 8 , where the indentations consist of as two indentations, a single linear indentation, a curved indentation, or multiple indentions, of two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or more equally, or unequally spaced indentations. 
     
     
         10 . The child resistant container of  claim 8 , wherein the container body and outer cap form a seamless edge. 
     
     
         11 . The child resistant container of  claim 8 , wherein the pinched neck on the container body has a single thread that travel one rotation around the pinched neck. 
     
     
         12 . The child resistant container of  claim 8 , wherein the container body, inner cap, locking plate and outer cap are made from a list of metals consisting of aluminum, steel, tin, copper, or alloys thereof. 
     
     
         13 . The child resistant container of  claim 8 , wherein the indention is four individual indentions in a cross shape across the inner cap. 
     
     
         14 . The child resistant container of  claim 8 , wherein the indentations have a working edge, and an open edge, the working edge is 70-80 degrees from the horizontal and the open edge is 40-60 degrees from the horizontal. 
     
     
         15 . A child resistant container comprising:
 a container body;
 wherein the container body is a container with a closed base and an open top; the open top has a recessed lip leading to a pinched neck that is threaded; 
   an inner cap,
 wherein the inner cap contains threads to screw the inner cap to the container body, indentations stamped into the inner cap; 
   an outer cap,
 wherein the outer cap has an inward rolled edge that rests that hold the inner cap locking while allowing the inner cap to float and rotate freely; and 
   a locking plate,
 wherein the locking plate has indentations that match the indentions in the inner cap; 
 wherein the locking plate is connected to the outer cap; and 
 wherein when pressure is applied to the outer cap and container body the indentations on the inner cap and outer cap provide enough friction to allow the outer cap and inner cap to move as one and screw the inner cap onto or off of the container body. 
   
     
     
         16 . The child resistant container of  claim 15 , wherein the indentations have a working edge, and an open edge, the working edge is 70-80 degrees from the horizontal and the open edge is 40-60 degrees from the horizontal.
