Water jug safety seal
The bottle safety seal may comprise a safety seal that covers the top of a bottle. The safety seal may prevent contaminants from collecting on exposed non-vertical surfaces of the bottle. As non-limiting examples, the contaminants may be from storing the bottle in a warehouse or other storage area where the bottle may be exposed to dust, dirt, spilled liquids, and other substances. The safety seal may be separable from the bottle such that the safety seal may be removed from the bottle prior to pouring or drinking from the bottle. As non-limiting examples, the bottle may be a water bottle, a wine bottle, a soda bottle, or a juice bottle. The bottle safety seal may be particularly suitable for use on 5 gallon water cooler bottles which may present larger exposed surface areas and may spend longer periods of time in storage before being used.
Two-part dispensing closure system with internal seal and methods of using the same
A dispensing closure system includes an upper closure portion and a lower closure portion including an axial flow conduit and a vent conduit. The upper closure portion is axially movable relative to lower closure portion between shipping and dispensing positions. A seal is disposed on the lower closure portion over the flow and vent conduits. A peripheral spacing strip is removably secured to the upper closure portion and engages with either the lower closure or the outside of the container to prevent movement. A piercing probe includes piercing elements in alignment with the flow and vent conduits for piercing the seal. In the shipping position, the piercing elements are spaced from the seal. However, when the spacing strip is removed and the upper closure portion is axially moved to the dispensing position, the piercing elements pierce the seal to open the flow conduit and the vent conduit.
Smart capsules
The technology relates to a cap 1 having a head 4 and a skirt 7 with a circumferential opening area 20 characterized in that the cap 1 may include a transponder 10 including and antenna circuit 14 and a leg circuit 17 the leg circuit 17 extending to the skirt 7 and being non-releasably affixed to the opening area 20, whereby the leg circuit 17 is breakable by disruption of the opening area 20. The transponder 10 stores and is able to transmit information on the integrity of the cap 1 to a reading device.
Securable clip
A securable clip includes a first elongated rectangular portion and a second elongated rectangular portion connected along a common edge. The clip includes at least one locking peg, at least one receiving hole configured to receive the at least one locking peg, and a frangible portion. The frangible portion provides a visual indication that the clip has been opened. The releasing of the locking peg prevents the clip from being reclosed, reused, or sealed again.
TWO-PART DISPENSING CLOSURE SYSTEM WITH INTERNAL SEAL AND METHODS OF USING THE SAME
A dispensing closure system includes an upper closure portion and a lower closure portion including an axial flow conduit and a vent conduit. The upper closure portion is axially movable relative to lower closure portion between shipping and dispensing positions. A seal is disposed on the lower closure portion over the flow and vent conduits. A peripheral spacing strip is removably secured to the upper closure portion and engages with either the lower closure or the outside of the container to prevent movement. A piercing probe includes piercing elements in alignment with the flow and vent conduits for piercing the seal. In the shipping position, the piercing elements are spaced from the seal. However, when the spacing strip is removed and the upper closure portion is axially moved to the dispensing position, the piercing elements pierce the seal to open the flow conduit and the vent conduit.
TAMPER-EVIDENT BOX FOR EDIBLE CONTENTS
The tamper-evident box for edible content generally includes a box having a base portion, sidewall portions, and a lid portion defining an interior volume. A front tab portion of the lid includes an adhesive tamper-evident seal that secures the lid to the front sidewall to maintain the box in a closed configuration. The box further includes multiple vents at the sidewall corners to reduce moisture buildup, and the interior of the box includes a layer of insulating material configured to maintain the contents of the box at a desired temperature. The box further includes a breakaway cutter tab disposed on a lower front corner which is used to cut across the adhesive seal and access the contents of the box. The lid and sidewalls include tabs that allow the box to secured closed position even after the seal is broken.
Container for mixing two fluids
A container for mixing two fluids includes: a container, a pouring cylinder; an upward facing step portion, a cap whose inner circumferential surface is screwed onto an outer circumferential surface of the pouring cylinder, a small container placed on an inner side of the cap; a cuttable first sheet that forms a bottom surface of the small container, a removable cylinder provided at a bottom end of the cap and interposed between the cap and the upward facing step portion, and a first cutter that is provided on the container so as to face a bottom surface of the small container that is placed on the inner side of the cap. The small container is made to approach the first container, and the first sheet is then cut by the first cutter.
Anti-tamper synthetic elastomeric cap structure and method of production
An anti-tamper synthetic elastomeric cap structure, of the type having a dilated external head in abutment with an apex to form a “T-cap”, includes a composite structure having, embedded in the head, an endoskeleton with external appendages that provides a cage having a circumferential projection, with respect to a penetrating body under the head that defines a band having a notching therein and disposed about the neck of a bottle to provide a pre-fracture line and a grasping appendage.
CLOSURE
A package includes a container and a closure cap for mounting on the container. The closure cap is coupled to a neck of the container to block selectively removal of product stored within the container at the selection of a user.
Lid for food container
A lid assembly for a food container is described that may be used to store and transport food items. The container defines an interior to store a food product. The lid assembly includes a lid and a stopper that is sized to close an opening of the container. A biasing member urges the lid to an open position when the lid is unlocked or unlatched.
