Tooth protector devices are disclosed for attachment to the top of a bottle to provide protection against injury, including chipping of teeth that can occur during drinking from a glass bottle. One embodiment comprises a concentric sleeve with top lip for insertion over the end of a bottle. Sleeve inner portion is adapted for engaging the bottle outer surface to hold the sleeve in place. The outer and top portions of the sleeve protect the consumer from the top edge of the bottle. When installed, a tooth protector according to the present invention cushions the teeth and mouth from any blunt force or impact that can occur when a bottle is hit or knocked. Also disclosed is a beverage cap with cushioned outer and upper surfaces that remain in place on the beverage bottle after opening the bottle to protect the consumer, and another bottle enclosure without such cushioned surfaces.

Systems and methods for aseptically filling pharmaceutical containers with pharmaceutical fluid are disclosed. In one general aspect, these are based on an aseptically sealable chamber that includes a transfer wall to which pre-sealed pharmaceutical source and receiving containers are mounted aseptically. A robotic arm and a syringe store are disposed within the chamber along with a sterilizing facility for establishing in the chamber an aseptic condition. The robotic arm can grip and operate syringes to inject and/or extract pharmaceutical products from the containers by piercing their closures with the needles of the syringes.

A souvenir apparatus is provided for capturing and retaining air from a particular location. The apparatus includes a vessel containing a vacuum and an activating arrangement configured to allow air to be sucked into the vessel from the location where the device is activated. The activating arrangement can be provided with audible and/or visible indicators to show that the apparatus has been activated. A cover can optionally be affixed to the top of the apparatus as a decorative feature and/or to provide an air-tight seal after activation. Adhesive labels and/or writeable surfaces can be provided on the apparatus to indicate the location, date, and/or other information pertaining to where/when the apparatus was activated.

A dispenser for viscous foods like condiments, batter and syrups employs a flexible plastic bag made of a flexible plastic material. The dispenser includes a cylinder having an annulus and defining an open interior. The cylinder receives the flexible plastic bag within the open interior. The cylinder includes a threaded nozzle that extends away from the open interior. A dispensing cap threadingly engages the threaded nozzle and includes a hollow tube and at least one knife edge which extends past the annulus into the open interior.

A membrane for sealing an open spout of a food package comprises a central circular disc member, an outer annular disc member connected to the central circular disc member along its inner periphery at a connection angle, and a resilient tubular portion extending between a first open end and a second end being connected to the outer annular disc member, the diameter of the second end being smaller than the outer diameter of the annular disc member, wherein the annular disc member is pivotable relative the central circular disc member for increasing the diameter of the second end of the tubular portion by changing the connection angle.

The present invention provides a personal vaporizer apparatus having a holding cartridge for storing a pressurized mixture. The holding cartridge contains a bottom end and an outlet end. The bottom end may contain a refill valve. The outlet end gets threaded unto a pressure regulating mechanism having a first valve. The pressurized mixture exits through the valve into a discharge channel, where the mixture exits through the mouthpiece in form of vapor. The holding cartridge may be replaced, with the rest of the device remaining intact. The pressurized mixture may be introduced into the external contain directly. The entire operation of the personal vaporizer apparatus is mechanical requiring no electronic power source to fuel operation.
