Abstract
A child-resistant, flip-top closure includes a closure body for secure connection to a container which stores the content/product which is to be dispensed. Hinged to the closure body is a flip-open lid which is constructed and arranged to be lifted manually. A child-resistant structure is incorporated into the closure construction. The child-resistant structure of one exemplary embodiment is constructed and arranged with a squeeze-to-release feature. The child-resistant structures of other exemplary embodiments are constructed and arranged with a tab press-down feature. Actuation of the child-resistant structure (squeeze or press down) must be performed concurrently with the lifting action applied to the flip-open lid.
