A device that assists with equalizing air pressure within a bottle with the atmospheric air pressure as liquid is being poured from the bottle and includes one or more relatively short air tubes. The air tubes are situated with an upper inlet rim of the air tubes located flush with or relatively near the bottle rim. Whether an insert or integrated into the manufacture of a container, the one or more air tubes that extend partially into the container allow air to pass into the container as the liquid exits the container. The pressure equalizer not only minimizes or prevents the common glugging effect, but it allows liquid from a bottle to be poured smoothly at any angle and orientation. A cap incorporating a detachable pressure equalizer is also described.

A container (1) for storage of solids, discrete elements, granular materials or liquid, comprises a base (2) and a lid (3) and the base (2) are suitable for forming an air tight storage volume (23). The base (2) and lid (3) comprise respective base closing devices (24) and lid closing devices (34) arranged to cooperate to close the container (1) and limit relative movement between the base (2) and the lid (3) by the closing devices (24, 34). The lid (3) has an lid base (33) and an adaptation device (35) arranged between the lid closing devices (34) and the inner part of the lid (33). The adaptation device (35) is placed to push the lid base (33) from the lid closing device (34) toward a bottom (21) of the base (2) for adaptation of the storage volume (23) to the content (4) in the container (1).

A new bottle cap comprising a cap body and at least one air-return valve having a drinking port and an air-return port which is correspondingly disposed to the air-return valve are disposed on the cap body; an anti-leakage valve is disposed in the drinking port; the place where the air-return port is located extends inwardly to form a convex portion in the cap body; one end of the air-return valve is connected to the convex portion in a matching way, and the other end of the air-return valve is a closed port structure; one end of the air-return valve is designed to be a closed port structure, which can effectively prevent the air in the cap body from outflowing through the air-return valve.

A molding head includes: an outer casing unit that has a top wall portion which is installed above a discharge hole and in which a plurality of shaping holes are formed, and that causes a molding surface of the top wall portion to discharge the content which has passed through the shaping holes; and an inner plate that is disposed inside the outer casing unit and defines a dispersion chamber between the inner plate and a supply surface of the top wall portion, in which a guide protrusion portion with which the content collides to be introduced to openings of the shaping holes on the molding surface side is formed on at least one of inner surfaces of the plurality of shaping holes, or in at least one of circumferential opening edge portions of the plurality of shaping holes on the supply surface side.

A compartmentalized tray system is an apparatus that stores and divides food so that the taste and integrity of the food within the apparatus is preserved. The apparatus includes a tray, a lid, and a divider plate. The tray, the lid, and the divider plate are hingedly connected to each other about a rotation axis. A first compartment is defined by the tray and the lid. A second compartment is defined by the divider plate and the lid. The first compartment and the second compartment are sealed by a first set of fasteners and a second set of fasteners, respectively. The apparatus further includes a plurality of stationary dividers, which are positioned within the tray. The plurality of stationary dividers further divides the tray so that a plurality of sections may separate different foods within the first compartment.

A pouring spout for dispensing a liquid present in a liquid container is provided. The pouring spout includes a first tubular body for connecting to the liquid container and a second tubular body which together with the first tubular body forms a passage for dispensing the liquid. The first and second tubular bodies are telescopically movable here relative to each other for leaving clear a radial opening through which the liquid can leave the pouring spout. The pouring spout further includes a venting channel for drawing in air. The invention is characterized in that the venting channel is fixedly connected to the second tubular body.

A personal aqueous dispensing system (PADS) and a personal oil dispensing system (PODS) feature common components each with a drip-catch. Both systems utilize nitrogen to extend the life of a consumable liquid or oil. The PODS incorporates a vent to facilitate flow of air into a bottle by preventing formation of airlock. Both systems feature dispensing control using a quarter turn rotation to control dispensing flow and both include a lid. The dispensing systems also features a switching device that triggers the filling of bottles with nitrogen.
