ABSTRACT:
A dispensing cap apparatus is provided for dispensing a fluid from a container. The cap includes a base portion and a cover cap portion which are slidably moveable with respect to each other. The base includes a cam surface and the cover cap includes a cam follower. Opening the apparatus requires squeezing opposing sides of the cover cap to move the cam follower against the camming surface which forces the cover cap into a raised position to unseal the cap and allow fluid to flow thereout. In another embodiment, a portion of the base is cammed downward with respect to their cover cap to open the apparatus. Also included as embodiments are a child-proof embodiment wherein the cover cap must first be aligned with the base before the apparatus may be opened and an embodiment wherein the camming surface and cam follower coact to prevent the cap from being closed after it has been opened.
