A travel container for storing liquids and ideally sized for convenient transport and storage is provided and comprises a first end having an opening that is configured to receive a cap that is releasably secured to the first end of the container to hold the liquid inside the container when the cap is in a closed position and to allow for liquid to be dispensed from the container when the cap is deployed in an open position; a body that is constructed of a flexible material that allows the container to be reshaped into a folded or rolled up state; a second end featuring a heavy duty zip lock that allows for opening and closing the container for ease of refilling the container with liquid to be dispensed; and a small tab attached to the container at its second end that allows the container to be hung in place. Optionally, a waterproof pocket is provided on the side of the container in which a label may be inserted to identify the contents of the container.

A dispenser (10) for dispensing a flowable material M has a container (12) having an outer wall (20) and membrane (14) collectively defining a first chamber (22) configured to contain the flowable material M. The membrane (14) has a thickness and a weld seam (40) wherein the weld seam (40) has a thickness less than the thickness of the membrane (14). A fracturing mechanism (16) is operably connected to the container (12). The fracturing mechanism (16) has an extending member (64) projecting from the outer wall (20) of the container (12). The extending member (64) has a projection (66) positioned proximate the membrane (14), wherein in response to deflection of the extending member (64), the projection (66) deflects the outer wall (20) proximate the membrane (14) wherein the weld seam (40) fractures creating an opening (41) through the membrane (14) configured to allow the flowable material M to pass therethrough and from the dispenser (10).

A toothpaste rolling assembly for squeezing toothpaste from a tube of toothpaste includes a key that has a slot extending therethrough to receive an end of a toothpaste tube thereby facilitating the toothpaste tube to be wrapped around the key. A gear is positionable around the key and a sleeve is slidable over the key. The sleeve has a slot therein to accommodate the toothpaste tube when the sleeve is slid over the key. The sleeve has a pair of lobes thereon and each of the lobes releasably engages the gear for retaining the sleeve at various points of rotation about the key. In this way the sleeve can be continually rotated on the key for squeezing toothpaste out of the toothpaste tube.

A dispenser (10) for dispensing flowable materials has a container (12) having an outer wall (16) and a membrane (34) collectively defining a first chamber (18) configured to contain a flowable material. The membrane (34) extends from the outer wall (16) at an angle. The membrane (34) has a thickness and a weld seam (40), and the weld seam (40) has a thickness less than the thickness of the membrane (34).

A dispenser includes a holster having a first ply and a second ply, a reservoir having a first sheet and a second sheet connected at edges thereof, and a dispensing aperture arranged between the first sheet and the second sheet, wherein the second ply forms a pocket on the first ply, and the reservoir is arranged in the pocket between the first ply and the second ply.

Systems and methods of a container having a tack welded fin seal are disclosed. The container may include a film, a tack weld joining a first outer portion of a first edge and a second outer portion of the first edge, and a fin seal joining a first inner portion of the first edge of the film and a second inner portion of a second edge of the film. The container may include a faceplate integrally molded to an outer layer of a first end portion of the film. The faceplate may include substantially the same composition as an outer layer of the first end portion, such that no distinct layers are formed between the faceplate and the film. The tack weld may be formed at a tack welding system, and the fin seal may be formed at a fin sealing system having a mandrel.
