ABSTRACT:
A lockable closure cap for bottles and containers having externally threaded necks. A closure cap having internal threads coacting with the external threads to seal a bottle has an integrally formed annular cylindrical clutch element projecting upwardly from the closure cap. An annular shell housing having a downwardly depending annular skirt to completely enclose the closure cap and prevent external access to the closure cap. An annular rib coacts between the annular shell housing and the closure cap to retain the two in assembly and rotatable relative to one another. A clutch shoe carrier has a pair of clutch shoes which are retained in position by a spring. A lock mechanism secured in the annular shell housing has a pair of cam elements which engage the clutch shoe means to urge them outwardly against the action of the spring and into engagement with the cylindrical clutch element so as to lock the housing to the closure cap via the clutch mechanism so that rotation of the shell housing causes rotation of the closure cap so as to remove same.
