A cosmetic sponge drying and storage container has a plurality of components, including at least a first component and a second component, the first component being moveable with respect to the second component to position the container in at least an open condition and a closed condition. At least one of the first component or said second component is perforated with perforations. A cosmetic sponge may be placed within the container when in the open condition and the perforations provide at least 10% ventilation when the container is in the closed condition. Preferably, both the first and second components are perforated to provide for cross-ventilation. In addition, a base may be provided to support the first and second components, and most preferably the base may be perforated.

Collapsible containers and a method of their manufacture are disclosed herein. The collapsible containers have one or more collapsible wall sections and a stiff upper and lower tier. The wall sections have living hinges and three or more tiers between the hinges. A thermoplastic elastomer layer may join separately made portions of the container together. The containers may be made by molding and overmolding. The containers include inter alia bulk liquid containers, jugs, tubs, baskets, bottles, and food containers. The method of manufacturing includes placing a container component and a matching container body comprising a stiff first tier, a stiff second tier, and a collapsible wall section in a mold; assembling the container body with the container component to close one end of the container body; and overmolding a thermoplastic layer around the container body and the container component.

The invention claimed relates to closing filtering devices for a bottle containing a liquid.

The essence of the invention claimed is that filtering openings are provided on the side surface of a truncated cone of a lower part of a stopper while in an upper, smaller base of the truncated cone of the lower part of the stopper the support band is provided all the way around a central opening with an air duct tube in fluid communication, in its inlet, with the central opening of the stopper adjoining the support band.

The technical result of the present invention is that the manufacture and service of the closing filtering device, the stopper thereof, and the assembly for closing a bottle containing a liquid are simplified and the reliability thereof is improved.

A closure for a beverage keg is provided, comprising an outer housing wall defining at least a portion of a valve housing and an inner duct that is located within the outer housing wall. The inner duct extends through at least a portion of the valve housing to define a flow path through the closure. The outer housing wall and the inner duct are integrally formed together as part of a single housing component.

Provide is a liquid storage bottle capable of discharging liquid while preventing the liquid stored therein from remaining. The liquid storage bottle has a bottle body and a nozzle for pouring out the liquid stored in the bottle body, and inside the nozzle, a first fluid passage and a second fluid passages each of which opens to an outside on a tip end side of the nozzle and parallel to each other, and a communication passage which opens to an inside of the bottle body on a base end side of the nozzle and communicates with both the first and second fluid passages, are formed, and an inner circumferential surface of the communication passage is inclined inwardly toward the first and second fluid passages.

In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods provided herein are useful for dispensing a fluid, such as a thixotropic fluid. In some embodiments, a bottle having a closure cap includes a flip top, a base, and a disk, where the base and disk define a mixing chamber configured to facilitate mixing of any serum or liquid separated from the fluid back therein. In some configurations, the base has a central opening through which the fluid exits and an internal shaft with a non-planar end surface opposite the central opening. In some configurations, the non-planar end surface and the disk define channels between the mixing chamber and the internal shaft. In some embodiments, the disk includes a central opening, a plurality of partial annular openings through a planar surface of the disk, and projections extending into the mixing chamber.

Disclosed herein are embodiments of liquid dispensing container preferably configured as portable, handheld liquid dispensing containers.
