A preform assembly includes: an outer preform that includes an outer mouth portion and a stretch portion connected to the outer mouth portion and in which a recess extending in a vertical direction is provided on an inner surface of the stretch portion; and an inner preform that includes an inner mouth portion and a stretch portion connected to the inner mouth portion, wherein an outside air introduction port communicating with a part between the outer preform and the inner preform is provided in a mouth portion composed of the outer mouth portion and the inner mouth portion located on an inner side of the outer mouth portion.

A method for producing a containing system for a liquid dispenser having a dimensionally stable outer container and a collapsible inner container, in the form of a pouch, arranged within the outer container. The method includes starting from the outer container, at least one layer of a pouch material being applied to an inner wall of the outer container. For this purpose, the pouch material is applied in the form of a liquid or powder to the inner wall, where, after solidifying or fusing, it forms a ply of a wall, of the inner container. The ply detaches from the inner wall of the outer container when the inner container collapses.

A device for dispensing a fluid substance (F) comprising a manually operated pump (2) coupled to a deformable bag (3), the deformable bag being housed inside a container (4); the container (4) is formed of a collar (5) made of plastic material snap-coupled to a tubular element (6) formed from a paper or cardboard-based material.

A double-layered container including an inner and outer container. A mouth, body and bottom portion respectively extend from top to bottom along a bottle axis. An outside air introduction hole is provided. A diameter of an intermediate portion between an upper and lower end of the body portion is smaller than a diameter of the lower end portion. The intermediate and lower end portions are connected via a step portion. A bottom wall portion includes a ground contact portion and depressed portion. A distance of the outer container inner surface from a connection portion to an outer peripheral edge portion of the ground contact portion in a vertical cross-sectional view along the bottle axis is 1.15 times or less a distance along the outer container inner surface and the bottle axis to an inner peripheral edge portion of the ground contact portion in the vertical cross-sectional view.

A configurable fluid vessel including a flexible bladder having a fluid port through which a fluid such as water can be provided into the bladder. The fluid vessel includes an internal support frame within the flexible bladder to increase rigidity and can be manipulated into a predetermined shape. The fluid vessel is collapsible for storage whilst retaining rigidity when in use. The fluid vessel is particularly suited for use in explosive jet disruptors for tailoring the formation of a fluid jet.

A container blank having an article handling feature for handling the container blank as well as the flexible packages made therefrom during manufacture, and method of making flexible packages using such a feature are described herein. Also described herein is an array of flexible packages containing a common article handling feature provided by such a method.

A dispensing pump mechanism is provided. The pump comprises integrally molded temper-evidence part between a container collar and a spout; said collar has multiple off-centre outlet channel for dispensing one or more products from the container; said collar also comprises an integrated air vent to be blocked and opened by the rotation of the spout. The whole pump can be over-molded one-piece structure with elastic parts as being actuating parts. The pump improves the functions of the pump, such as lower restitution rate, less structural parts, lower cost, water/dust proof, lightweight, easy assembly.

A portable sanitizer dispenser for use with a cellular phone includes a hand sanitizer dispenser configured to releasably engage at least one surface of a cellular phone. The sanitizer dispenser includes a compressible cavity defined therein configured to retain a sanitizer therein. The sanitizer dispenser further includes a nozzle disposed on an outer surface thereof. The nozzle is in fluid communication with the compressible cavity such that when pressure is applied to the compressible cavity, sanitizer is expelled from the nozzle.

A device for dispensing a fluid substance (F) comprising a manually operated pump (2) coupled to a deformable bag (3), the deformable bag being housed inside a container (4); the container is formed of a collar (5) made of plastic coupled to a tubular element (6) formed from a paper- or cardboard-based material, the tubular element featuring a bottom (7), the collar (5) featuring ribs (N) made on a surface thereof which comes into contact with an internal wall of the tubular element (6).

A double container includes an inner container and an outer container, has a mouth portion, a body portion and a bottom portion disposed in this order from top to bottom along a direction of a bottle axis, and includes an outside air introduction hole. The bottom wall portion of the bottom portion includes a ground contact portion and a recessed portion. A peripheral wall portion of the depressed portion extends inward in a radial direction as it goes upward. A plurality of ridge portions protruding radially inward are provided on the peripheral wall portion of the depressed portion at intervals in a circumferential direction. The peripheral wall portion of the depressed portion or the ridge portion extends inward in the radial direction via a step portion as it goes upward.
