Pouch with flexible self-sealing dispensing valve
The present invention is directed to fluid-dispensing flexible pouches having at least a first wall portion, a second wall portion and a means to manually discharge a fluid product from inside the pouch. The means to manually discharge a fluid from inside the pouch comprises an orifice formed in either one of the first or second wall portions or a patch, and a flexible self-sealing dispensing valve having at least two intersecting lines of weakness formed in either one of the first or second wall portions or the patch.
LIQUID DISPENSER HAVING COMPRESSIBLE LIQUID STORE
Cream dispenser for topically dispensing liquid onto the skin of a user including a liquid store, a discharge head that has a discharge opening and a hinged lid to protect the discharge opening. The dispenser has a multi-part design of the discharge head in order to limit, in a haptically satisfactory way, the movability of a release button of the discharge head and a special relative arrangement of the locking edges on the discharge head and on the hinged lid opposite a joint of the hinged lid in order to prevent the sharp-edged locking edges from coming into contact with the skin while cream is being discharged onto the skin.

Valve apparatus and container including the same
A container (100) is provided that includes a chamber (102), a dispensing passageway and a resilient valve (120). The chamber contains a viscous fluidic material. The valve (120) is configured to transition from a normal state to a dispensing state upon a discharge pressure being applied to the chamber (102) to allow the viscous fluidic material to pass through the orifice (131) of the resilient valve and to be dispensed from the dispensing passageway as a string of the viscous fluidic material. The orifice (131) is open in the normal state. The valve is also configured to return from the dispensing state to the normal state upon cessation of the discharge pressure, whereby the resilient valve (120) assumes a pinching state while returning from the dispensing state to the normal state in which the string of the viscous fluidic material is pinched off by the orifice edge.

Dispensing device with disposable insert
A dispensing device includes an outer container made of a deformable material, the outer container includes a hollow interior cavity. The dispensing device includes an inner container affixable within the interior cavity of the outer container. The outer container is a re-usable container, the inner container can be a one-time use, disposable container, shipped to a customer on a periodic basis, including toothpaste. The inner container includes a nozzle for dispensing of the paste upon completion of assembly. The dispensing device includes a nozzle locking mechanism to secure the inner container to the cap. The cap includes a cap locking mechanism to secure the cap to the outer container. Upon assembly, applying a compression force to the outer container dispenses the toothpaste.
