A container and container closures are provided as well as methods of dispensing product from the container are provided. The container closure includes a pair of cover members. One cover member includes sifting apertures and the other cover member is imperforate to prevent dispensing product. The container closure may also include a measuring volume that can be used to measure a predetermined amount of product to be dispensed. Sifting and bulk dispensing may occur for either product dispensed directly from the container or when dispensing the predetermined volume of product.

A lid is described to reduce spillage or leakage of fluids contained in a beverage container. The lid includes the actuator that opens and closes a dispensing opening of the lid and also opens and closes a valve of the lid to reduce spillage or leakage from the beverage container. As the actuator is opened, the dispensing opening is uncovered and the valve opened.

Containers with closures are disclosed. A closure may include at least a polymer orifice reducer configured to be permanently secured to a rim of an opening of a container and a flexible tamper evident seal disposed on the topside of the orifice reducer. The flexible tamper evident seal, optionally foil, covers one or more openings in the orifice reducer. Processes for permanently securing a closure to a container, optionally by forming a heat seal between the orifice reducer and container rim, are also disclosed.

A flow selector configured for selectively or optionally regulating flow of liquid from a container is disclosed.

A dropper dispenser comprising: a fluid reservoir (1) including at least one movable wall (11) so as to put the fluid in the reservoir (1) under pressure; a cannula (24) having an outlet (25) that is designed to form a drop of fluid; and a valve (3) that is arranged between the reservoir (1) and the cannula (24) so as to control firstly the flow of fluid from the reservoir (1) into the cannula (24), and secondly the flow of fluid, and possibly air, from the cannula (24) into the reservoir (1), the valve (3), when subjected to sufficient pressure from the fluid in the reservoir (1), defining an opening (33) having a flow section that is proportional to the force exerted on the movable wall (11) of the reservoir (1); the dropper dispenser being characterized in that it further comprises a valve-opening limiter (27) so as to limit the opening (33) of the valve (3) while fluid is flowing from the reservoir (1) into the cannula (24), so as to create additional head loss that reduces the flow of fluid through the cannula (24).

A cap, apparatus, and method for manufacturing a cap. The cap (104) may include a base (106) defining an orifice therethrough, and a lid ((108) coupled with the base. The lid may include a top surface (125), a bottom surface (134) that is opposite to the top surface, a plug (122) extending from the bottom surface for a first distance, and a brim (114) extending from bottom surface for a second distance that is less than or equal to the first distance. The brim includes a first curve (208) at least partially extending from the bottom surface away from the top surface, and a second curve (210) at least partially extending from the top surface, away from the bottom surface. The brim defines at least a portion of an engagement surface that faces at least partially away from a centerline of the lid. The cap is operable between an open position and a closed position.

Disclosed in the present invention is a flip top lid with a replaceable threaded decorative top, comprising a flip top lid and a replaceable threaded decorative top. The flip top lid consists of a base unit and a flip top unit mounted or connected to the base unit at one side by a hinge structure. The replaceable threaded decorative top is connected and matched with the flip top unit through a threaded joint structure. The flip top unit is configured with a first threaded joint structure and the replaceable threaded decorative top is configured with a matching second threaded joint structure, so that the replaceable threaded decorative top can be tightly screwed on to the flip top unit and also quickly detached from the flip top unit. Through the flip top lid with a replaceable threaded decorative top, consumers will have the freedom to choose various appearance designs for their flip top bottles whenever they want, so as to enhance the aesthetic effect and to express their personal styles.

A container for feeding a patient includes a deformable receptacle having a cavity for holding a flowable food product and a rigid cover attachable to the upper end of the deformable receptacle. The rigid cover may have a male feeding tube connector that is uniquely connectable to a female feeding tube connector of a feeding tube or may have a female feeding tube connector that is uniquely connectable to a male feeding tube connector of a syringe. With the male and female feeding tube connectors connected, the deformable receptacle and the feeding tube or syringe are in fluid tight fluid communication to allow the flowable food product to be forced out of the opening of the deformable receptacle and into the feeding tube or syringe when the deformable receptacle is squeezed.

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.

This disclosure relates to a lid assembly that has a lid assembly for a container, such as a drinking container, that includes a lid member, and a pouring member, wherein the lid member and pouring member are releasably connected to the container. The lid member may include a body member, a handle portion connected to the body member, an internal threaded portion, an internal receiving portion, and a lid gasket member arranged in the internal receiving portion. The pouring member may include a spout collar, a spout, and a spout opening extending through the spout, wherein the spout extends from the spout collar and includes an upper end above an upper surface of the spout collar. The lid assembly has a closed orientation that prevents liquid from flowing through the opening of the pouring member and an open orientation that allows liquid to flow through the opening of the pouring member. When the lid assembly is in the closed orientation, the lid gasket member contacts both the upper end of the spout and the upper surface of the spout collar.
