Abstract

See full text

A toggle-action container dispensing closure is provided for manipulation between a closed, non-dispensing orientation and an open, dispensing orientation. The closure includes an actuator mounted on a body secured to the container. The actuator is tiltable between a closed position and an open position, and the actuator has an engaging tab. A locking ring is mounted on the body for rotation relative to the body and actuator. The ring defines an abutment member for engaging the actuator engaging tab. In one position, the locking ring abutment member lies under the actuator engaging the tab to prevent pivoting of the actuator to the open position. When the locking ring is rotated to another position, the locking ring abutment member clears the actuator engaging tab to permit pivoting of the actuator to the open position.
