A lockable fluid dispenser cap is used with a dispensing pump for dispensing a fluid product from a container. The dispenser cap includes a container closure, locking fingers mounted to the closure, a lock actuating member rotatably mounted to the closure, and a pump actuating member coupled to the lock actuating member. The closure mounts the pump in the container. The locking fingers are mounted to the closure and normally spaced in unlocking relation from the pump piston but are yieldably flexible for bending toward the piston. The lock actuating member has cam elements which upon rotation of the lock actuating member forcibly bend the fingers toward the piston and into a locking relation therewith. Reciprocal movement of the pump actuating member relative to the lock actuating member is used to actuate the piston. Also, rotational movement of the pump actuating member is used to cause rotation of the lock actuating member therewith for bending the fingers from their unlocking to locking relations. The pump actuating member includes a fluid collecting dish which receives fluid product from the pump when the locking fingers are in unlocking relation with the piston permitting reciprocal movement of the pump actuating member and the piston connected thereto toward and away from the cylinder for discharging fluid product from the piston to the collecting dish.
