ABSTRACT:
A tamper-proof bottle for assuring a legal "chain of custody" of its contents. The bottle has adjacent its open end a circumferential series of abutment bodies, each of which co-operates with one of a series of abutment bodies carried on the inner wall of the cap's rim wall, forming a series of retainer sets. When rotated to its closed position, the cap and bottle cannot be separated without breakage; and in moving into that position, the resilient nature of the sets is sufficient to let the set bodies pass one another but after such passing to cause the deformable body portion to move so that at least a part of one will be within the axial extent of the abutment wall of the mating body portion, thus blocking against cap-removal except with breakage. The cap is also provided with one or more outlet ferrules, they being closed-ended cylinders; and a plug is provided for resealing the bottle once the closed end is cut off, the plug being self-locking once inserted.
