A pill-dispensing package includes a container and a closure. The container is formed to include an interior product-storage region to store pills therein. The closure is coupled to a filler neck of the container.

There is disclosed a dispenser (10), such as a confectionery dispenser, for dispensing product objects such as pieces of confectionery (40). The dispenser (10) comprises a container (12) for storing product objects; and at least one dispensing arrangement (14, 16). The dispensing arrangement (14), (16) comprises an opening (18) provided in the container (12); a collection region (26) located within the container (12) and adjacent to the opening (18); a guide (32) disposed within the container (12) and adjacent to the collection region (26); and a dispensing tray (29) disposed within the container (12) and adjacent to the opening (18). The dispensing arrangement (14), (16) is configured the opening (18) and having a dispensing surface 30 accessible through such that in use in a loading orientation of the dispensing arrangement (14), (16) product objects collect in the collection region (26). During movement of the dispensing arrangement (14), (16) from the loading orientation to a dispensing orientation the guide member (32) guides product objects within the collection region (26) so as to dispense them onto the dispensing surface (30) of the dispensing tray (29).

The medication container includes a receptacle that has an inner space for holding medications. The cap assembly is coupled with the receptacle for retaining the medications in the inner space. The cap assembly includes at least one passage that can be selectively opened and closed and includes at least one medication sensor that is configured to detect any medications travelling through the passage and out of the receptacle in a contactless manner. A microprocessor is in electrical communication with the at least one medication sensor and with a memory. The microprocessor is configured to record data to the memory in response to the at least one medication sensor detecting a medication travelling through the passage. A wireless module is in electrical communication with the microprocessor for uploading the data to an external device.

A novel chewing gum box includes a gum storage chamber, a storage chamber cover, a funnel apparatus, a gum introducing plate, a gum carrying groove, a carrying groove baffle, a push handle, a spring baffle, guide rails, guide rail grooves, a spring groove, and a spring. The gum storage chamber is communicated with the gum carrying groove through the funnel apparatus. The gum carrying groove is connected to the push handle and is capable of reciprocating along the guide rails and the guide rail groove. When retrieving gum, the box body is tilted and shaken first to allow gum in the storage chamber to slide along the gum introducing plate into the gum carrying groove via the funnel apparatus. The push handle then is actuated to have the gum pushed out along the guide rail and the guide rail groove, so that the gum is available for retrieval.

The invention is drawn to a container comprising a bottom wall and at least one sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall. The sidewall terminates in an edge and has an inner and an outer surface. The bottom wall and the at least one sidewall form a container interior. A flexible bag having an open end is disposed within the interior of the container and over the top edge of the container. A slide ring extends at least partially circumferentially about the outer surface of the sidewall and is affixed to the open end of the bag and frictionally engaged with the outer surface of the sidewall.

A discharge device coupled to a storage container accommodating contents to discharge a fixed quantity of the contents includes: a fixed portion configured to fix the discharge device to the storage container; a passage portion having an opening formed in a shape of a through-hole, through which the contents are discharged, at an upper end and configured to form a movement path for discharging the fixed quantity of the contents; and a passing movement portion rotatably installed at the fixed portion and configured to rotate for the contents to pass, wherein the passing movement portion includes an opening member configured to open or close the opening, a rotating shaft portion connected to the opening member and having a rotating shaft that serves as a center of rotational movement, and a blocking member connected to the rotating shaft portion and configured to rotate together with the opening member, while the storage container and the discharge device are tilted at a critical angle of inclination from an angle of inclination of 0? at which the storage container and the discharge device stand upright, a center of gravity of the passing movement portion is configured to be positioned relative to the rotating shaft for rotation of the passing movement portion to be suppressed, and the critical angle of inclination is an angle of the storage container relative to the angle of inclination of 0? at which the contents come in contact with the opening member.

A child resistant tablet product dispenser provides a container with a lid. The lid may be rotated along a first path in a first configuration which does not permit alignment of a window in the lid with a slot in the container. Upon activation of a latch mechanism, the lid can be moved vertically to permit rotation along a second path where the window and the slot align sufficiently to discharge product from the container.

The current disclosure is directed to a container with a dispensing schedule and, in various described implementations, to a container and a complementary cap that includes a dispensing schedule. During each dispensing cycle, which includes removing the cap from the container to allow access to the contents of the container and re-securing the cap to the container, the display schedule is automatically advanced to a next indication. In one implementation, the container is a bottle with a threaded neck and the cap is complementarily threaded and has a cylindrical rim and a schedule display. An indication on or within the schedule display is displayed through an aperture in the cap rim. Features included in the cap and the schedule display interoperate to ensure that the displayed indication is advanced to a next indication when the cap is unscrewed from, and subsequently threaded onto, the bottle.

Provided is a measuring device including: a tablet measuring part that includes a plurality of housing parts that are each configured to house one tablet; a measuring-number selecting part that enables to select a measuring number of tablets by selecting a number of housing parts available for housing tablets out of the plurality of the housing parts; and a measuring-number fixing part that locks the measuring number selecting part to prevent the measuring number selected by the measuring-number selecting part from being changed.
