There are provided a check valve structure that not only prevents backflow of fluid but does not discharge fluid for unintended pressure in a correct direction, and a squeeze container using the check valve structure. A squeeze container includes a container and a nozzle member attached to an opening of the container. The nozzle member is provided with a check valve structure that is closed in an unloaded state, and that blocks a flow of fluid from downstream and allows a flow of fluid from upstream. The check valve structure is opened when an elastic valve element elastically deforms in two stages due to pressure of fluid from upstream (container).

A small-capacity liquid discharging apparatus includes, a contents accommodating container unit which is defined with a space therein for accommodating contents in a liquid form; an intermediate coupling body which includes a closing plate member coupled to an upper side of the contents accommodating container unit and configured to close an upper portion of the contents accommodating container unit, is defined with a through hole for allowing the contents to move therethrough, and includes a shape body filled therein with the contents from the contents accommodating container unit through the through hole, and transformed inwardly when a pressure is externally applied, and then restored; and a discharge member which is coupled to an upper portion of the intermediate coupling body, includes, at a center portion thereof, a discharge outlet through which the contents are discharged to the outside.

A tamper-evident closure (101) comprises a first portion (105, 106) and a second portion (102, 104) comprising a window (103) through which a view of the first portion (105, 106) is visible. The second portion (102, 104) is rotated relative to the first portion (105, 106) upon first opening of the tamper-evident closure (101), from a first position in which the first and second portions (105, 106; 102, 104) are in a first relative relation and a first view of the first portion (105, 106) is visible through the window (103), to a second position in which the first and second portions (105, 106; 102, 104) are in a second relative relation and a second, different view of the first portion (105, 106) is visible through the window (103). A locking mechanism irreversibly locks the first and second portions (105, 106; 102, 104) in the second relative relation.

Described herein are embodiments of an apparatus that include and/or consist of a spill-proof lid for a drinking container. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a lid, where the lid is configured to include a straw having a leak-proof engagement with the lid and a one-way valve disposed in a portion of the straw that only allows liquid to exit the container (through the straw) when the pressure inside the container is sufficiently greater than the pressure outside the container.

A gas absorption box includes a box body, at least one gas absorption member and an outer housing assembly, the box body has an accommodating cavity; the gas absorption member is elastic and is provided with a first inner cavity, and the first inner cavity is in communication with the outside of the box body; and the outer housing assembly is arranged in the accommodating cavity and is elastically connected to the box body, and the outer housing assembly has a second inner cavity for accommodating a gas absorbent, the second inner cavity being in communication with the first inner cavity, and the gas absorption member being capable of absorbing gas for the second inner cavity. When battery powder or some positive-electrode materials for batteries are transported, hydrogen generated by the battery powder or some positive-electrode materials for batteries gathers towards the upper portion of a ton bag.

A dispensing system for a floor treatment composition. The dispensing system includes a housing partially enclosing a cavity and a cradle moveable within the housing along a z-axis from a first position to a second position. The dispensing system further includes a chassis and a sliding lock that includes an open frame. An inlet canula projects through the open frame. When the cradle is in the second position, the inlet canula entrance projects through the open frame and through a liquid transport aperture in the cradle. Latches extending from the open frame also project through engagement apertures in the cradle when the cradle is in the second position. The dispensing system further includes a pump in fluid communication with the inlet canula and a mop head in fluid communication with the pump.

An element for an aerosol-generating system, a cartridge for an aerosol-generating system, and an aerosol-generating system, wherein the element, the cartridge and the aerosol-generating system each include a storage portion for storing an aerosol-forming substrate and a manually operated disabling mechanism for rendering the element, the cartridge, or the aerosol-generating system irreversibly inoperable. The element, the cartridge, and the aerosol-generating system may include an aerosol generator and one or more air passages. The disabling mechanism may be configured to render at least one of the storage portion, the aerosol generator, and the one or more air passages irreversibly inoperable.
