The present application relates to a system for dispensing fluid. The system includes a flexible container including a spout that is in fluid communication with an interior region of the container. The system includes a cap configured to be mounted to the spout. The cap includes an opening that leads to a membrane and a first retention mechanism located in the opening. The system includes a piercing tube having a first end configured to puncture the membrane and a second end configured to be connected to a dispensing tube. The piercing tube includes a seal bead and a second retention mechanism. The piercing tube is inserted into the opening of the cap such that the first end punctures the membrane, the first and second retention mechanisms engage each other to retain the piercing tube in the cap, and the seal bead sealingly engages the cap.

A fastener device for closing a fluid reservoir (1) formed with a neck (10) provided with outer peripheral reinforcement (11) that co-operates with the remainder of the neck to define a bottom shoulder (12). The device includes a fastener ring (2) for holding a closure member (4) on the neck (10), the fastener ring (2) including a peripheral skirt (21) engaged around the neck to below the bottom shoulder (12). The skirt (21) has fastener elements (26a, 26b) that form a contact zones (27a, 27b) suitable for potentially engaging the neck (10) below the bottom shoulder (12). The contact zones (27a, 27b) are situated at different axial heights, such that some contact zones (27a; 27b) come into operating engagement below the bottom shoulder (12), while other contact zones (27a; 27b) remain inoperative.

A specimen container for urine and other liquids is provided having a container lid, an elastomeric septum, a cup, and a non-porous seal. The elastomeric septum covers a septum hole in the lid, and the non-porous seal is affixed to the lid such that it creates a liquid-tight boundary between the septum and the chamber within the bottle. The septum includes a depressed portion and an area of minimum thickness shaped to allow an implement to pass through the area of minimum thickness. The depressed portion may also include a pre-cut which allows the implement to pass through the septum more easily.

A receptacle for minimizing evaporation of a fluid includes a single-piece body, a fluid-tight seal, a penetrable septum, and a lid. The body includes a chamber having an opening. The fluid-tight seal is affixed to a surface of the body that defines the first opening. The fluid-tight seal covers the opening and is frangible. The septum covers the opening and the fluid-tight seal. The septum includes at least one slit forming slats. The lid has an opening axially aligned with the opening and is coupled to the body such that at least a portion of the septum is disposed between the lid and the fluid-tight seal.

A stopper is generally provided in which a hollow shell includes at least one outer layer and an inner layer positioned within the outer layer. The outer layer is formed from a substantially solid polymer while the inner layer is formed from a cold-flowable polymer. The cold-flowable polymer is deformable when an object is inserted therein and is scalable when the object is removed.

A fastener device for closing a fluid reservoir (1) having a neck (10) with outer peripheral reinforcement (11) that co-operates with the neck to define a bottom shoulder (12). The fastener device includes a fastener ring (2) for holding a closure member (4) on the neck (10), and which includes a peripheral skirt (21) extending around the neck below the bottom shoulder (12). The skirt (21) is provided with fastener elements (26a, 26b) forming contact zones (27a, 27b) for coming into engagement with the neck (10) below the bottom shoulder (12). A blocking hoop (3) is provided that is engaged around the peripheral skirt (21) in a final mounted position. The peripheral skirt (21) forms vertical blades (22) separated by axial slots (23), the blocking hoop (3) forming vertical branches (33) that are arranged in the axial slots (23) between two vertical blades (22), in the mounted position.

A dispensing closure system includes an upper closure portion and a lower closure portion including an axial flow conduit and a vent conduit. The upper closure portion is axially movable relative to lower closure portion between shipping and dispensing positions. A seal is disposed on the lower closure portion over the flow and vent conduits. A peripheral spacing strip is removably secured to the upper closure portion and engages with either the lower closure or the outside of the container to prevent movement. A piercing probe includes piercing elements in alignment with the flow and vent conduits for piercing the seal. In the shipping position, the piercing elements are spaced from the seal. However, when the spacing strip is removed and the upper closure portion is axially moved to the dispensing position, the piercing elements pierce the seal to open the flow conduit and the vent conduit.

In the medical cap comprising a plug 10 made of thermoplastic elastomer and an outer frame 20 made of synthetic resin, the side surface part of the plug is contacted with an inner wall 211 of the side circuit part of the outer frame in a non-fused state and is held in a state with pressure applied from the leg part of the outer frame 22. As a result, the wetted surface of the plug is not flat shaped but has an inclination downward to the circle center. Protrusion 14 can also be provided on the wetted surface and in such a case, the bottom part of the protrusion part that is one part of the wetted surface has an inclination downward to the circle center.

A sealing device for a container comprising a circular cap designed to seal the neck of the container and a cover made from a synthetic material capable of covering both the neck and the cap fitted on the neck, the cover being provided with means for locking onto the neck, the cover being in one piece and comprising a skirt capable of radially surrounding a collar of the neck of the container, and an annular portion provided with a central opening allowing permanent access to the cap, and the skirt having at least two jamming areas for jamming the cap and, on the inner radial face thereof between the two jamming areas, a release area with a diameter strictly greater than the minimum unstressed diameter of the cap.

A closure cap (1) having a flange (2) for connecting to a flange of an infusion solution container, wherein the cap (1) has at least one integrated stopper (3a, 3b) in order for liquids to be removed from, or introduced into, the container and for re-sealing purposes once liquid has been removed or introduced.
