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.

Container for smokeless tobacco product
A container that may be employed to store a tobacco-containing material is provided. The container may include a lower body portion and an upper lid. The lower body portion may include an intermediate bottom wall that may separate the lower body portion into upper and lower internal storage compartments. An environment modification material may be received in the lower internal storage compartment. The tobacco-containing material may be received in the upper internal storage compartment. The environment modification material may control humidity in the container to preserve the freshness of the tobacco-containing material and/or perform other functions. Vent channels cooperatively formed by the lower body portion and the upper cover may further contribute to humidity control.
POUCH ASSEMBLY AND CONTAINER DEVICE USING SAME
The present disclosure relates to a pouch assembly for storing a liquid and a container device using the same. A pouch assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a pouch unit which is formed of an elastic material and in which a charging space for charging the liquid is formed. The pouch unit includes a pouch unit body in which the charging space and a pouch-side opening communicating with the charging space on one side thereof are formed, a pouch-side catch which is formed on one side of the pouch unit body and in which an outer circumferential side thereof in a state in which the pouch-side catch surrounds the pouch-side opening further extends outward from an outer surface side of the pouch unit body, and a selective sealing unit which is disposed at an upper side of the pouch-side catch and selectively opens/closes the pouch-side opening.
TABLE TOP DISPENSERS WITH ANTI-REFILL AND ANTI-TAMPERING MECHANISMS
Exemplary embodiments of tabletop dispenser having reassembly prevention devices are disclosed herein. An exemplary dispenser includes a container that has a neck. The neck having an inside neck diameter. A pump, a closure and a reassembly prevention device are also included. The reassembly prevention device is located between the closure and the pump. The reassembly prevention device has one or more members having a biased position and an unbiased position. When the one or more members are in the biased position, the outside diameter of the one or more members is less than the inside diameter of the neck. When the one or more members are in the unbiased position, the outside diameter of the one or more members is greater than the inside diameter of the neck. When the dispenser is assembled and the pump and reassembly prevention member are secured to the bottle by the closure, the reassembly prevention device is positioned inside the container neck and the reassembly prevention device is in the biased condition. When the pump and the reassembly prevention member are removed from the container neck, the one or more members to move to the unbiased position.
Containers and closures
A closure may have a top wall and a side wall depending from the top wall. A plug seal device may depend from said top wall within the side wall. The plug seal device may have an upper section, a lower section, and a sealing section proximate the boundary between the upper section and the lower section. The sealing section is operable such that when the plug seal device is inserted in an opening to an inner cavity in a container, the sealing section engages with an inner container surface to provide a seal between an inner cavity of the container and the external environment.
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.
CONTAINER WITH LID LOCKING FEATURES
A container is disclosed herein. The container includes a base and a lid, with the lid being movable between an open position and a closed position. The lid includes a first resealing feature defined by an inner lip and a second resealing feature defined by an outer lip. The resealing features are configured to connect when the lid is in moved into the closed position and disconnect when the lid is moved into the open position. Thus, the lid is releasably held to the base when the lid is closed. The lid incorporates a film layer for reducing waste and weight. The film layer is situated and sized to define a vent into the interior of the base to allow any products disclosed therein to be vented and non-airtight.
CONTAINER FOR RETORT FOOD
The present disclosure relates to a container for retort food and, more specifically, to a container for retort food, which includes: a ridge portion having a closed curve shape to surround a tray part; and an exhaust hole surrounded by the ridge portion, so that the container enables a lid film to be automatically peeled off from the ridge portion by means of a steam pressure generated in a food during heating to exhaust steam and can be used for retort food which is stored at room temperature.
Method for molding a closure and gasket combination
What is presented is a method of forming a closure with a sealing gasket in an injection molding machine that has a center rotating cube. The center rotating cube comprises a plurality of mold back halves each comprising cores and a thread unscrewing mechanism. Each core is shaped to form a closure that has a thread and an anti-rotation feature. The method comprises the steps of forming a closure with a through hole, rotating the core to create a gap between the formed closure and the core, and injecting a compressible material through the through hole and into the gap to form a sealing gasket.
