The Pharmacap consists of an opening and closeable locking lid for pill
containers used in the
Pharmaceutical field.
The Pharmacap's design consists of two sections. The rim of the upper section
sits flush on the
lip of the pill container; it has a seam dividing its top in half. The front
half with its extending lip
flips up when the back half is pushed down upon. This is possible due to the
fulcrum located
underneath, providing a leverage point.
This upper section is held to the container by the lower section, which is
shaped like a moveable
"O" ring with a small notch cut out. When the "O" ring is rotated and its
missing notch aligns
with the upper section's extended lip, the front half can then flip up.
If the notch doesn't line up with the extended lip, the top section's front
half will not flip up.
