Abstract

A child-resistant package (20) includes a container (24) having a finish (28) with an open end (36), at least one external thread (34), at least one stop lug (32) projecting radially outwardly from the finish, and a closure (22) having a base wall (56), a skirt (60) with at least one internal thread (64) for engagement with the thread on the container finish, at least one spring element (58), and at least one pair of internal lugs (76, 78) on the skirt and extending radially inwardly from the skirt. Each pair of lugs on the skirt includes a first lug (76) that cooperates with the stop lug on the container finish to prevent unthreading of the closure from the finish absent pressure on the closure against the spring element to push the first lug on the skirt beneath the corresponding stop lug on the container finish, and a second lug (78) circumferentially spaced from the first lug that cooperates with the stop lug on the container finish to prevent "over-threading" or over tightening of the closure on the finish.
