Abstract
A tamper proof closure cap for a container, a tool for manufacturing the cap and a method for removing the cap from the tool are defined. The cap is designed with the tamper proof skirt as a unitary structure with the main body of the cap. The skirt has unique structural aspects which allow for less complexity in the tool and ease of removal of the cap from the tool. The tool includes a stripper ring which laterally support the skirt and permits a shift of the pivot plane for the skirt relative to the main body portion during removal of the cap from the mold.
