TAMPER RESISTANT DEVICE AND METHODS OF FORMING A TAMPER RESISTANT DEVICE
First Claim
1. A tamper resistant system comprising:
- a container comprising a container body defining a cavity with a threaded opening;
a threaded closure removably covering the threaded opening; and
a frangible component comprising a length of material having a first end and a second end, the first end being integrated with the container body such that the frangible component and the container body have a single piece construction, the frangible component extending from the container body, and the second end coupled to the threaded closure,wherein subsequent removal of the threaded closure from the container causes damage to at least one of the frangible component, the threaded closure, and the container body, andwherein the frangible component, the threaded closure, and the container body are at least partially constructed of an environmentally friendly material.

Abstract
Tamper resistant systems and devices and methods of forming the same are disclosed. A tamper resistant system includes a container having a container body defining a cavity having a threaded opening therein, a threaded closure removably covering the threaded opening, and a frangible component including a length of material having a first end and a second end. The first end is integrated with the container body such that the frangible component and the container body have a single piece construction and the frangible component extends from the container body. The second end is coupled to the threaded closure. Subsequent removal of the threaded closure from the container causes damage to at least one of the frangible component, the threaded closure, and the container body. The frangible component, the threaded closure, and the container body are at least partially constructed of an environmentally friendly material.

6. A tamper resistant device comprising:
-
a frangible component having a first end and a second end, the first end integrated with a container body such that the frangible component and the container body have a single piece construction, the frangible component extending from the container body, and the second end coupled to a threaded closure when the threaded closure is secured on the container body, wherein subsequent removal of the threaded closure from the container body causes irreversible damage to at least one of the frangible component, the threaded closure, and the container body, and wherein the frangible component is constructed of an environmentally friendly material. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
