Child resistant lid and packaging
Aspects of the invention include a child resistant packaging system that makes use of a container, a protective sleeve and a two part child resistant lid with inner lid and an outer lid that are co-axially aligned. The protective sleeve has a recessed groove that substantially matches a corresponding lip on the container enabling the protective sleeve to retain the container without a stretch fit. Also provided is a sleeve for protecting a container that is constructed from a molded silicone and has a recessed groove for retaining a container.
1. A child resistant packaging system comprising:
a container; and
a protective sleeve; and
a child resistant lid comprising an inner lid and an outer lid that are co-axially aligned; and
wherein said protective sleeve has a recessed groove located on the interior surface of said protective sleeve that substantially matches a corresponding lip on said container; and
wherein said inner lid comprises a cylindrical side surface and a top surface with a plurality of grooves located at approximately 45 degrees to said top surface and side surface, wherein said plurality of grooves are individually symmetrical about a plane defined by a line through the center of each instance of said plurality of grooves and a central axis of said inner lid, and said outer lid comprises a plurality of ribs; and
whereby said inner lid and said outer lid may be rotationally coupled by bringing said plurality of ribs and said grooves into contact.
