Antibackoff closure

摘要

A container for storing and dispensing sterile liquids is provided with a hermetically sealed overcap. An outer ring fits over the overcap and the overcap and outer ring have interfitting threads. The outer ring defines a jacking member for moving the overcap axially upwardly on a bottle neck when the outer ring is rotated downwardly. Antibackoff means are provided for axially interlocking the outer ring and overcap, limiting upward rotational displacement of the outer ring with respect to the overcap.
