The present invention provides a method and kit for the treatment of surfaces, such as the skin surface of a user, to impart hydrophobic characteristics upon the surface. The treatment of surfaces to impart hydrophobicity protects equipment, personnel, and animals from the effects of aqueous solutions such as water, toxic slurries, concrete, acids and bases.

Dispensing systems (100) having wands (110) for distributing a spray away from a user include moveable wands (110), wands for locking actuation of the dispensing system (210), wands and dispensers providing gravity fed dispensing solutions (410) for battery-operated devices (500) and improved dispensers.

Provided is a container for drinking a liquid comprising: a) a cylindrical body with a cavity for holding the liquid and an opening at the top, wherein a cylindrical shape of the body does not change based on the liquid leaving the cavity; b) a member for removably attaching to the top of the body, the member having an opening for movement of the liquid; c) a cap in shape of glans for removably attaching directly or indirectly to the member, the cap not having an opening for movement of the liquid to outside of the body; and d) a nipple, with an opening, placed above the body in fluid communication with the cavity; wherein the container is configured to allow the liquid to leave the body and move to the outside of the container based on the cap being removed; wherein the container is configured to be used both as a dildo and a container for drinking the liquid.

The present disclosure relates to a drinking vessel, such as a water bottle, with a straw to facilitate access to the fluid within. According to a first aspect of the disclosed technology, there is provided a drinking vessel, comprising: a straw; a lid comprising an opening operable to receive the straw; a container; and a cap operable to be in an open position or a closed position; wherein when the cap is in the open position, the straw is arranged to provide fluid communication between a user and the container through the lid, and further wherein when the cap is in the closed position, the straw is urged by the cap into a bent shape such that the straw itself occludes fluid communication.

A dispensing system (100) includes a pour cap (102) which may be connected with the neck of a container (900). The cap base includes a main deck (108), a dispensing spout (110) and a venting tube (112). A flow regulator is mounted on the underside of the main deck such that the flow regulator restricts flow through the opening of the dispensing spout. In some embodiments, the flow regulator is a hinged spring-loaded baffle plate (116). In some embodiments, the flow regulator is a gravity ball valve (316). A visual timing device (200) may be advantageously located on the pour cap (102) so that the timing device is easily visible to a user during operation or use of the dispensing system. The constant flow rate provided by the flow regulator allows the timing device to more precisely measure each pour regardless of how much fluid is in the bottle.

In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods provided herein are useful for dispensing a fluid, such as a thixotropic fluid. In some embodiments, a bottle having a closure cap includes a flip top, a base, and a disk, where the base and disk define a mixing chamber configured to facilitate mixing of any serum or liquid separated from the fluid back therein. In some configurations, the base has a central opening through which the fluid exits and an internal shaft with a non-planar end surface opposite the central opening. In some configurations, the non-planar end surface and the disk define channels between the mixing chamber and the internal shaft. In some embodiments, the disk includes a central opening, a plurality of partial annular openings through a planar surface of the disk, and projections extending into the mixing chamber.
