Abstract
A child resistant closure including a container and a cap. The container includes a body portion defining a chamber, and a hollow neck extending from the body portion. The cap is formed to fit around the neck and includes a base portion and a lid portion connected to the base portion with a hinge. At least one first engagement portion extends from a lever portion attached to the base portion, and is positioned to engage at least one second engagement portion that is integrally formed in the lid portion. The engagement portions are located off set from a location diametrically opposite the hinge. The closure is in a locked position when the first engagement portion engages the second engagement portion. The closure is moved to an unlocked position when the lever portion is pushed inwardly to disengage the first engagement portion from the second engagement portion.
