A flexible thermoformed dispensing package for a flowable material includes an integrally formed dispensing tube extending from the container portion having an internal extension spaced apart from the side walls defining a recessed chamber defined by a pair of integral thermoformed walls extending from the bottom surface of the container chamber and terminating proximate the base when the package is in a vertical position to facilitate sipping of a beverage from the container portion; alternatively, a straw is placed in the dispensing tube to reach the base of the package. In another embodiment, at least one integrally formed internal dividing wall extends from the sealed end of the dispensing tube and intersects an interior wall to define separate dispensing chambers, where the sealed ends of each of the dispensing chambers can be independently opened along a weakened transverse parting line and separated into separate dispensing channels along a longitudinal parting line.

A cap assembly for a refill capsule and associated refill system is disclosed. The cap assembly (200) comprises an inner wall (202) defining a conduit (203) through the cap assembly (200) and an outer wall (204) surrounding the inner wall to form a circumferential void between the inner and outer walls (202, 204). A connecting wall joins the inner and outer walls (202, 204). The cap assembly (200) further comprises a closure member (208) which is sealed to the inner wall (202) with a peripheral frangible connection (210). The frangible connection (210) is disposed between radially offset portions of the inner wall (202).

A container 10 for mixing and dispensing of material having a liquid receptacle 14 and a plunger 18. The receptacle 14 has a front portion 36 and the plunger 18 has a forwardly projecting sharp protrusion 42 having a shaft 72 which terminates in a sharp outer end 78, 82. Upon the plunger 18 being depressed the sharp protrusion 42 pierces a front portion 36 of the liquid receptacle 14 and the liquid in the receptacle 14 is pushed hydraulically through the front portion 36 into the main chamber 17. Thus the liquid contacts material in the main chamber 17 to form a mixture. The plunger 18 can continue to be depressed so as to break the front portion 36 of the liquid receptacle 14 away and then push the material in the main chamber 17 towards a dispensing nozzle 26. The main chamber 17 has a frangible membrane 22 at a distal end 13 thereof which is hydraulically broken by pressure applied from the material in the main chamber 17 so that the material can be dispensed from the container 10. The container 10 is particularly envisaged for use with mixing and dispensing of dental materials.

A cap system for a refill capsule for a container for concentrated cleaning fluid is described. The cap system comprises a cap assembly (200) comprising a conduit (203) sealed by a closure member (208), frangibly connected to an inner surface of the conduit (203). The frangible connection extends in a first plane, which is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis (A) of the conduit (203). The cap system further comprises a plug (300), disposed at least partially within the conduit (203), the plug comprising an abutment surface (305) for bearing against the closure member (208), to break the frangible connection (210). The abutment surface (305) extends in a second plane, which is parallel to the first plane in which the frangible connection (210) extends.

The present invention provides a cup lid that utilizes fracturing lines to form a novel drinking spout, a cover piece, and a connection part. These fracturing lines include a press-down fracturing line defines a press-down part and a raised fracturing line defines a raised part. The press-down part and the raised part have an overlap area due to the width difference, and the press-down part and the raised part open in opposite. The press-down part and the raised part are transformed as the cover piece and the overlapped area as a connection part. The cover piece can be fixed on the cup plate by using their width difference or clamp structure.

A spout for a pouch that includes a rigid spout body and a soft cover externally coating a tube of the spout body is provided. The tube is threaded internally. A cap includes a tang with an external thread for screwing onto the spout.
