Dispensing closure with tamper evident device

1. A closure with an overcap comprising:

a base adapted to be secured to a mouth of a container, said base having a circumferential post wall extending upwardly from a deck and a side wall depending peripherally from said deck, said base further having a plurality of circumferentially spaced upwardly projecting base flanges, wherein each one of said base flanges is positioned at a first radius;

a spout positioned on said post wall of said base and moveable telescopically thereon between an open position and a closed position with respect to said base;

an overcap disposed over said spout, said overcap having a depending skirt connected to a tamper indicating band, and a frangible line of weakness between said skirt and said tamper indicating band;

said tamper indicating band having an outwardly projecting flange; and

said flange being anti-rotationally deformed by said plurality of base flanges.

2. The closure as in claim 1 wherein said outwardly projecting flange of said tamper indicating band is substantially flexible.

3. The closure as in claim 1 wherein said outwardly projecting flange of said tamper indicating band flexes inward adjacent each said base flange.

4. The closure as in claim 1 wherein said outwardly projecting flange deforms into a scalloped shape when assembled with said base.

5. The closure as in claim 1 wherein each of said base flanges has a concave surface engaging said tamper indicating band.

6. A closure comprising:

a base adapted to be secured to a mouth of a container, said base having a deck, a side wall depending peripherally from said deck, and a plurality of curved flanges circumferentially spaced and upwardly projecting from said deck, wherein each one of said curved flanges is positioned at a first radius;

a spout positioned on said base and moveable telescopically on a post extending upwardly from said base, said spout movable between an open position and a closed position with respect to said base; and

an overcap positionable between an assembled position and a preassembled position, said overcap having a depending skirt connected to a tamper indicating band and a frangible line of weakness between said skirt and said tamper indicating band, said tamper indicating band having a circumferential flange when in said preassembled position before assembly with said base, said flange is anti-rotationally deformed by said plurality of curved flanges when in said assembled position with said base.

7. The closure as in claim 6 wherein said circumferential flange of said tamper indicating band projects between adjacent said curved flanges when in said assembled position.

8. The closure as in claim 6 wherein said circumferential flange of said tamper indicating band flexes inwardly at each of said curved flanges when in said assembled position.

9. The closure as in claim 6 wherein said circumferential flange of said tamper indicating band has an outer diameter larger than an inner diameter of said plurality of curved flanges of said base.

10. The closure as in claim 6 wherein each of said curved flanges has an interior curved surface and an exterior curved surface.

11. The closure as in claim 6 wherein said spout engages the interior surface of said tamper indicating band when in either said open position or said closed position.

12. A closure with an overcap comprising:

a base adapted to be secured to a mouth of a container, said base having a deck, a side wall depending peripherally from said deck, and a plurality of upwardly projecting base flanges circumferentially spaced on said base, wherein each one of said base flanges is positioned at a first radius;

a spout positioned on a post of said base and moveable telescopically thereon between an open position and a closed position;

said overcap disposed over said spout, said overcap having a depending skirt connected to a tamper indicating band, and a frangible line of weakness between said skirt and said tamper indicating band; and

said tamper indicating band having an outwardly projecting flange, wherein said outwardly projecting flange extends between said base flanges and flexes inwardly at each of said base flanges.

13. The closure as in claim 12 wherein each of said upwardly projecting base flanges has an interior curved surface and an exterior curved surface, wherein said interior curved surface engages said outwardly projecting flange of said tamper indicating band.

14. The closure as in claim 13 wherein said outwardly projecting flange is substantially scalloped in shape.

15. The closure as in claim 13 wherein said interior curved surface has a smaller arc than said exterior curved surface.

16. The closure as in claim 12 wherein said plurality of base flanges limits axial and rotational movement of said tamper indicating band.

17. The closure as in claim 12 wherein said plurality of base flanges projects from said deck adjacent said side wall of said base.

18. The closure as in claim 12 wherein said outwardly projecting flange of said tamper indicating band is spaced from said frangible line of weakness of said tamper indicating band.

19. The closure as in claim 12 wherein said outwardly projecting flange is anti-rotationally deformed by said plurality of base flanges.

20. The closure as in claim 12 wherein said outwardly projecting flange is substantially flexible.

21. A dispensing closure with a dust cover, comprising:

a closure having a deck and depending side wall with an upstanding post to receive a spout, said spout vertically repositionable on said post to move relative to said base between a closed position and an open position;

wherein said closure further has a product flow channel extending through said post; and

a dust cover fitting over said spout and releasably engageable on said closure and having a lower edge in deformable engagement with a plurality of upwardly extending talons, said talons intermittently formed along a first radius on said closure.
