ABSTRACT:
A child-resistant
on-child-resistant dual function double cap closure with incorporated means for over-ride of conventional normally disengaged torque couplings includes a hole formed in the top surface of the outer cap, a formed plug having a locking protuberance and removal ring, and a plurality of spaced stop lugs formed annularly on the top surface of the inner cap. The free and separate movement of the outer cap is prevented in either direction of rotation by the plug's insertion into the hole of the outer cap as to place the base of the plug in the space between the stop lugs of the inner cap rendering the cap non-child-resistant at the time of consumer purchase. The consumer may use the cap in a non-child-resistant mode or remove the plug thus converting the cap to a child-resistant mode.
