Fluid product reservoir having a neck defining an opening, the neck having an upper annular edge defining an outer ridge and an inner ridge, the opening being defined by an inner wall connected to the upper annular edge by the inner ridge. At least one cutout is provided at the upper annular edge, this cutout extending on the inner wall, interrupting the inner ridge, but does not extend as far as the outer ridge, such that the upper annular edge is continuous over its entire periphery, including at the cutout, this cutout further forming a base defining a ridge with the inner wall of the opening.

A cap system for a refill capsule for a container for concentrated cleaning fluid is described. The cap system comprises a cap assembly (200) comprising a conduit (203) sealed by a closure member (208), frangibly connected to an inner surface of the conduit (203). The frangible connection extends in a first plane, which is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis (A) of the conduit (203). The cap system further comprises a plug (300), disposed at least partially within the conduit (203), the plug comprising an abutment surface (305) for bearing against the closure member (208), to break the frangible connection (210). The abutment surface (305) extends in a second plane, which is parallel to the first plane in which the frangible connection (210) extends.

A handheld solids dispenser. The dispenser includes a housing defining an inlet passage and an outlet passage. A delivery mechanism is supported within the housing and is positioned between the inlet passage and the outlet passage. Actuation of the delivery mechanism causes the delivery mechanism to transport a desired amount of solids material from the inlet passage to the outlet passage. The delivery member may be in the form of a plunger slidably positioned within the housing. The delivery mechanism may be in the form of a screw conveyor driven by a drive motor.

A container for loose powder, having a well defining a well volume, a side wall surrounding the well laterally to define an upwardly closed powder chamber extending circumferentially around the well, and a bottom member cooperating with the well and the side wall to close the lower ends of the well volume and the chamber. The bottom member and at least a part of the well are relatively rotatable between positions in which the well and bottom member cooperatively prevent passage of powder from the chamber to the well volume, and in which at least one gap opens to permit limited passage of powder from the chamber into the lower end of the well volume. A lid closing the well volume is removable to enable an applicator to transport powder from the well volume to a location outside the container.

Disclosed is a refillable cosmetic container including a container body provided with a main body of which an one side is opened; a refillable container part detachably coupled to the main body and in which a cosmetic liquid is stored; a support part coupled to the other side of the main body; and a pumping driving part coupled to the support part to discharge the cosmetic liquid stored in the refillable container part to the outside of the refillable container part, wherein the refillable container part includes a refillable container body detachably coupled to the main body and a shifter part detachably coupled to the refillable container body and penetrated with a tube member of the pumping driving part, and a film is provided between the refillable container body and the main body to be easily separated when the refillable container body is separated from the main body.

The present invention solves some of the problems of the prior art by providing a method, system and apparatus for readily refilling the reservoir of a smoking-substitute device with liquid from a dispenser. The method, system and apparatus of the present invention prevents liquid from being dispensed until the dispenser is securely and sealably engaged to the smoking-substitute device, provides independent liquid and gas pathways between the dispenser and reservoir, and substantially alleviates the problems of spillage and/or leakage when dispensing liquid from the dispenser into the reservoir of the smoking-substitute device.

A liquid dispenser for dispensing a cosmetic or pharmaceutical liquid produced by mixing two starting liquids. The liquid dispenser has at least two liquid reservoirs for holding the two starting liquids and a discharge opening, and at least one pump device by which liquid can be delivered from the liquid reservoirs to the discharge opening. The dispenser has one intake opening for removing the liquid, via the at least one pump device, at one end of each liquid reservoir, and one intake tube extending from the intake opening to a bottom end of each liquid reservoir. Further, one filling opening is provided at the bottom end of each of the liquid reservoirs.

A refill device for a container having an opening to a cavity including a first connection element with first connection means for removably connecting the refill device to the opening, a bag first part filled with a substance for housing in the container, a neck and a connection part between the neck and the first part, and a flange, a pump, a ring nut element connected to the first connection element to connect the pump and bag thereto, the first connection element including a body with an upper part including an upper opening delimited by a wall for resting a portion of the flange and connection means, a lower part including an opening and first means for removably connecting the refill device, the first connection element including second connection means for removably connecting a protection element to the first connection element before associating the refill device with the container.

A method of filling a fluid dispenser is provided and a method for operating power driven pump in a dispenser is provided.

Fluid product dispenser (D) having a reservoir (R) defining a bottom (R1) and an opening (R2), and a dispensing head (T) integrating a dispensing member (P) defining a vent path through which outside air can penetrate into the reservoir (R). The dispensing member (P) has a dip tube (TP) that extends into the reservoir (R), the dip tube (TP) having an inlet (Ti) close to the bottom (R1) of the reservoir (R). The inlet (Ti) of the dip tube (TP) is provided with a shut-off valve (V) having a movable member (V6) and a seat (V5), the movable member (V6) is urged into sealed contact with the seat (V5) by the fluid product when the dispenser (D) is upside down, while the movable member (V6) is urged away from the seat (V5) by the fluid product when the dispenser (D) is upright.
