Patent AT-E401255-T1: [Translated] CHILD-PROOF SAFETY LATCH ON OR FOR CONTAINERS

A container and cap assembly contains a sliding part (82) in the cap (84). The sliding part (82) may be supplied separate from the container and cap assembly, allowing the user to determine if a child-resistant or non-child resistant cap is formed. In the child resistant embodiment, the sliding part (82) is configured within the cap (84) whereby at least a portion of the sliding part protrudes out from the cap in a location near or proximate to a hinge (40). To open the cap, the user applies sufficient force to the sliding part (82), pushing it in a direction away from the hinge (40) so that at least a portion the sliding part protrudes out of the portion of the cap that is substantially opposite the hinge. Then the user applies a second sufficient force in an upward direction to open the cap (84).
