ATTACHMENT FOR A BEVERAGE CONTAINER
An attachment for a beverage container may include a cap configured to attach to an opening in the beverage container. The cap includes an opening. The attachment also include a tube passing through the cap. A beverage in the beverage container can flow through the tube and out of the opening in the cap. The attachment also includes a container attached to the tube and configured to hold a liquid. The container includes an opening to allow the liquid to flow from the container into the tube and out of the opening in the cap. The attachment also comprises a restrictor between the opening of the container and the tube, such that the liquid begins to exit the opening in the cap before the beverage begins to exit the opening in the cap.
Dispensing container with internal squeeze limiting member
A vessel configured to contain a powder, semi-solid or liquid product and to dispense predetermined amounts of the product. The vessel includes a container, a limiting member, and a dispensing closure. The container, limiting member and dispensing closure are not integral with each other, are constructed as discrete components, and are assembled to form the vessel. The limiting member limits inward deflection of the container during each squeezing of the container to limit the amount of product displaced from the container into the dispensing closure.
DISPENSING SYSTEM
The present invention provides a dispensing system comprising a self-gassing liquid to be dispensed and a dispenser for dispensing the self-gassing liquid, the dispenser including: a valve housing having an inlet for receiving the liquid and an outlet through which the liquid is to be dispensed; a valve chamber and/or passage extending between the inlet and the outlet, and a valve arranged to open and close the valve chamber and/or passage; pressure maintaining means arranged to maintain the pressure of liquid at the inlet to the valve housing at a constant pressure during successive dispensing operations; and control means for controlling the opening and closing of the valve, the control means being arranged to open and close the valve to commence and terminate each successive dispensing operation, wherein the period for which the valve is open determines the quantity of liquid dispensed. The dispensing system may permit very small quantities of liquid to be dispensed with great accuracy and avoid the liquid being subjected to high shear forces. The system is particularly beneficial for the dispensing of peracetic acid.
CONTAINER
A container for self-gassing liquids, the container comprising a receptacle and an insert arranged to seat within a neck of the receptacle, the insert being further arranged to engage and seal directly or indirectly with a connector extending across the neck of the receptacle. The insert defines a void defined by a base portion of the insert and a peripheral side wall of the insert extending within the neck of the receptacle, the insert comprising a hole in the base portion. The container further comprises a dip tube extending from a lower surface of the base portion to, or towards, the bottom of the receptacle. The dip tube defines a passageway through the base portion, or is connected and sealed to the lower side of a passageway through the insert, the passageway terminating in said void such that the hole and the passageway are in fluid communication with each other through the void. Self-gassing liquids may be safely stored and transported in the container without risk of over-pressurisation of the internal volume of the container, which may also be quickly and easily installed into a dispensing device by the end user, requiring minimal handling by the user.
DISPENSER
A dispenser for dispensing a liquid is disclosed. The dispenser comprises an outlet for dispensing a liquid, a reservoir for liquid, and a closure configured to engage with the dispenser and movable between a closed position in which the outlet is enclosed and an open position in which the outlet is not enclosed. The dispenser further comprises an arrangement for controlling liquid communication between the reservoir and the outlet, the arrangement and reservoir movable with respect to each other between a first configuration in which the reservoir is not in liquid communication with the outlet and a second configuration in which the reservoir is in liquid communication with the outlet. By requiring a second movement after removal of the closure accidental access or dispensing of the contents may be avoided or reduced.
FOAM-JETTING TUBE CONTAINER
A foam-jetting tube container is configured in that, when a container body is pressurized in a state of the container body being turned upside down, contents and air stored inside the container body flow into a first mixing part and are mixed so as to firstly form foam, and then are secondarily formed into foam through a foam mesh while passing through a second mixing part which communicates with the first mixing part, and then discharged to the outside, such that the foam can be jetted by means of a simple structure.
Dispenser
A dispenser for dispensing a liquid is disclosed. The dispenser comprises an outlet for dispensing a liquid, a reservoir for liquid, and a closure configured to engage with the dispenser and movable between a closed position in which the outlet is enclosed and an open position in which the outlet is not enclosed. The dispenser further comprises an arrangement for controlling liquid communication between the reservoir and the outlet, the arrangement and reservoir movable with respect to each other between a first configuration in which the reservoir is not in liquid communication with the outlet and a second configuration in which the reservoir is in liquid communication with the outlet. By requiring a second movement after removal of the closure accidental access or dispensing of the contents may be avoided or reduced.
A LIQUID DISPENSING DEVICE
A manually operated demand delivery liquid pump dispensing device, includes: a container (2) to be filled with a storage (20) of the liquid to be dispensed and with air inside the container, said container comprising a bottom part (6), a top part (5), and a side wall (7) between said bottom part and said top part, and a lid (3) which seals an opening (4) in the top part of the container, usable for filling the container, said lid being provided on the upper side thereof with a shallow basin (15), including, in the centre thereof, a concave dish-shaped cavity (21) and a discharge opening in the region of said dish-shaped cavity of the lid, and with a tube (22) for supplying liquid to said concave dish-shaped cavity from said storage of liquid which may be contained in the container. Said tube has an exterior top section (22a) extending upwards from the bottom of said concave dish-shaped cavity (21), and an interior section (22b) extending downwards from said top section into the storage of the liquid which may be contained in the container.
Dispensing closure for powdered products
A dispensing closure for a powdered product that uniquely meters powdered product from a container is disclosed. The dispensing closure includes an upper deck having a dispensing aperture. An inner skirt depends from the upper deck. The inner skirt is adapted to secure to a neck of a container. A tube depends from the upper deck and is sized and dimensioned to reach near the bottom of a container. The tube has a side surface and closed end. A dispensing port is located on the side surface of the tube, near the dispensing aperture. The tube may optionally have an air intake port located on the side surface of the tube near the closed end.
Multi-chamber container
Provided is a multi-chamber dispenser (1) of flowable substances, comprising: a rigid body (100) disposed around first (113) and second (123) storage chambers for storing respective first and second flowable substances, a first inlet fluidly connecting the first storage chamber (113) with a first outlet (141), a second inlet fluidly connecting the second storage chamber (123) with a second outlet (151), a first user-operable apparatus (140) at an exterior of the container and configured, on movement relative to the rigid body (100), to cause a volume of the first flowable substance to be dispensed from the first storage chamber (113) via the first inlet to the first outlet (141), and a second user-operable apparatus (150) at the exterior of the container and configured, on movement relative to the rigid body (100), to cause a volume of the second flowable substance to be dispensed from the second storage chamber (123) via the second inlet to the second outlet (151).
