CONTAINER, CLOSURE, AND METHODS FOR MANUFACTURE
In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods provided herein are useful for dispensing a fluid, such as a thixotropic fluid. In some embodiments, a bottle having a closure cap includes a flip top, a base, and a disk, where the base and disk define a mixing chamber configured to facilitate mixing of any serum or liquid separated from the fluid back therein. In some configurations, the base has a central opening through which the fluid exits and an internal shaft with a non-planar end surface opposite the central opening. In some configurations, the non-planar end surface and the disk define channels between the mixing chamber and the internal shaft. In some embodiments, the disk includes a central opening, a plurality of partial annular openings through a planar surface of the disk, and projections extending into the mixing chamber.

DOSING APPARATUS AND A CONTAINER
A dosing apparatus suitable for dispensing a dose of liquid from a resilient squeezable container including a cap, suitable for attachment to the container, the cap comprising an expulsion channel for the expulsion of liquid; a dosage chamber attached to the cap, the dosage chamber comprising side walls; at least one inlet opening in the side walls proximal to the cap; a pressure chamber located underneath the dosage chamber; a valve provided at the end of the pressure chamber distal to the dosage chamber, the valve being movable from an open position, allowing liquid to flow through one or more discharge openings, and a closed position where the valve closes each discharge opening, the valve incorporating at least one aperture; and a plunger provided in the dosage chamber, and movable relative to the dosage chamber so as to advance upon squeezing of the container, up to a blocking position.
Discharge cap for a container
Discharge cap, in particular for a container for accommodating an enteral nutritional solution. The container has a discharge opening, which is sealed liquid-tight with a cover and has a projection for the arrangement of the discharge cap in the region of the discharge opening. The discharge cap can be arranged with an open front end over the discharge opening of the container and has at least one receiving opening for a discharge tap on the opposite side of the side of the discharge cap facing away from the open front end. At least one sealing body is arranged in the region of the open front end of the discharge cap. A tear-open aid is arranged below the receiving opening and in the region of the open front end, wherein the tear-open aid is moved in the direction of the open front end during insertion of the discharge tap.
DUAL CHAMBERED CANTEEN WITH INTERCHANGEABLE SPOUTS
A beverage canteen container of various materials but not limited to plastic, stainless steel, glass etc. having at least two manufactured compartments separated by a non removable partition wall which features a sleek contour body canteen design and allows the canteen container to hold two separate liquids, pureed or solid food in the canteen. The interchangeable canteen lid will have two interchangeable flip-up Y-spout designs. The first flip-up Y-spout design will allow two products to be extracted from both chambers of the canteen bottom and blend together when extracted through the single elongated tube end into the mouth. The second flip-up Split Y-spout design is split through the end of the Y, resulting in two individual elongated tubes and will provide individual product extraction. Both the Y-spout or the Split Y-spout can be attached and reattached to the top of the canteen lid by two pivotal balls with axles on opposite side of the balls. The axles also secures the spout to the top of the lid's base for opening and closing the spout. There are O-rings located around the non-removable base opening of the canteen lid and will be underneath the pivotal balls. The O-rings will seal the opening when the spouts are in an opened position for an airtight seal between the spouts and the chambers. There are vent release plugs located underneath both the Y-spout and the Split Y-spout to plug the atmosphere vent release holes located on top of the lid when the spouts are in the closed position and will provide an airtight seal when in the closed position. The canteen lid is designed to snap tightly and securely seal by an inverted J shaped peripheral section around the edge of the lid for latching and locking in an airtight position without needing a gasket, so there is no gasket for this design! There lid has two separate non-removable inner wall compartments on the underside that fits inside each chamber of the canteen container bottom with the means of ensuring proper positioning of the lid over each compartment and will assist in preventing the mixing of products from either chamber and will provide an airtight seal for each chamber. Also, the separate inner walls located underneath the lids are ingenious for ensuring that the lid will easily fit the top of each chamber while providing an extra step in ensuring separating the chambers for liquids, puree or solid foods. There are (optional) straw inserts attachment constructed underneath the lid and can be used for sipping purposes. The canteen can be turned upward for a chug a lug product extraction experience.
OPENING DEVICE FOR A PACKAGE ADAPTED TO CONTAIN A POURABLE PRODUCT AND PACKAGE COMPRISING AN OPENING DEVICE
An opening device for a package obtained from a sheet of packaging material that comprises at least first and second layers and having a through hole through the first layer and covered by a sheet cover portion of the second layer. The opening device comprises a wall portion applied onto a first side of the sheet cover portion and defining, together with the sheet cover portion, a user-tearable portion of the package; the wall portion comprises a linear weakening slot in a part of the thickness of the wall portion and open at a second surface thereof, opposite the first surface; the linear weakening slot delimits, together with the first side a linear weakening region of the user-tearable portion; the opening device further comprises at least one pull-member to cause tearing of the user-tearable portion along the linear weakening region, and; at least one projecting linear rib element.
Fixed Quantity Discharge Device for Liquid Container
A a fixed quantity discharge device for a liquid container is provided. The device includes a container main body in which contents are accommodated, a pipette part including a pipette tube to suction and discharge the contents accommodated in the container main body, and a support disposed in an upper portion of the container main body and including a coupling part formed in an upper end portion thereof to be coupled to the pipette part, a tube accommodation part extending from the coupling part to an interior of the container main body such that the pipette tube is inserted into or withdrawn from the tube accommodation part, and a contents inflow hole formed in a lower end portion thereof to communicate with the interior of the container main body, wherein, when the pipette part is separated from the support, the contents accommodated in the container main body may be suctioned into the pipette tube.
Tamper Evident Container
A tamper evident device, comprising: a container; a valve; and a cap; wherein both the valve and the cap may each have a tamper evident device. The cap and the valve are configured to matingly engage in a closed and open position, such that any excess liquid is recaptured and directed back into the container. The tamper evident devices may be rings and frangible bridges that snap or break when the device is tampered with or opened.
