A reusable travel tube that has a flexible tube portion, a collar and a cap that can be threaded onto the cap. The collar is fitted over a neck of the tube portion and forms a gasket-like seal between the neck of the tube portion and the collar. The cap has a rotatable locking bail that can prevent a flip-top cap from accidentally being opened. When the locking bail is not positioned to prevent the cap from being accidentally opened, it can be retracted into a nested position such that the handle of the bail is substantially flush with the outer side surface of the collar.

A cap assembly for use with multiple bottles having different size necks is provided. The assembly includes a base, at least one adapter and a lid. The base includes a compartment for storing the adapter and an opening having at least two internally threaded sections of different size and a port. The adapter includes an internally threaded opening having at least two sections of different size and an externally threaded surface having at least two sections of different size. The lid is mounted on the base for movement between a position wherein the base opening port is closed and a position wherein the base opening port is open. Additional adapters may be included. The additional adapters are configured to accept bottle necks of different sizes than the base opening and first adapter such that at least six bottles with different size necks can be used with the assembly.

An inhaler (10) has a main body for accommodating a medicament reservoir (84), a canister fire system for moving a canister (50) to release a dose in response to air flow, a cap housing (12) for enclosing the canister fire system and canister within an interior chamber defined by the main body (14) and a cap housing, wherein a lock system (250) is provided for locking the cap housing on the main body.

A coupling device for mounting onto the spout of a faucet is disclosed. The device is connected or connectable to a hose and includes an elastomeric sleeve and a clamp assembly. The clamp assembly includes a housing and a pressure applying member. The housing has a cavity holding the sleeve between a back wall and the pressure applying member. The sleeve receives the externally threaded spout. The pressure applying member is movable to a closed position to compress the sleeve tightly about the spout to releasably secure the device to the faucet. The pressure applying member is also movable to an open position to release the spout from the sleeve. Also disclosed is a cap device for releasably sealing an externally threaded mouth of a bottle or other hollow vessel and making use of an elastomeric sleeve and a clamp assembly similar in many respects to the coupling device.

A closure for a container is provided. The container has a side surface and a rim. The rim defines an opening and an opening axis perpendicular to the opening. The closure has a top portion for covering the opening; and a skirt portion, connected to the top portion, that surrounds a region of the side surface when the closure is connected to the container. The skirt portion has thread portions that cooperate with thread portions on the side surface to define movement of the closure relative the container in a direction parallel to the opening axis as the closure rotates about the opening axis relative to the container. The closure includes a liner extend across the top portion of the closure and at least partway across the skirt portion away from the top portion. The liner seals the opening of a container when the closure is connected to the container.

A re-closable container comprising a container body (12), a single piece metal closure and a layer of sealing compound provided on an underside of the closure. The container body and the closure have first cooperating features (14) to allow the closure to be twisted onto and off of the container body. The layer of sealing compound and a sealing surface (18) of the container body which comes into contact with the sealing compound have second cooperating features (40) which establish one or more venting passages upon rotation of the closure from a closed position. The second cooperating features comprise one or more protrusions or indents in the sealing surface and one or more corresponding indents or protrusions on the sealing compound that are radially aligned with the one or more protrusions or indents in the sealing surface when the closure is in a closed position.

Some embodiments are directed to a device for catalytically diffusing a fragrance or active substances, wherein the device includes a bottle with a base, and containing a liquid including a fragrance; a catalytic combustion burner mounted on the base; a capillary wick attached to the burner and partially submerged in the liquid; and a closing cap removably mounted on the base and covering the burner. The cap includes a sealing means bearing against a periphery of a top of the base.

A screw cap container including a container main body and a screw cap. The container main body includes a mouth tubular portion, which is provided with slope screw portions. The slope screw portions include: upper screw protrusions disposed at three or more different positions; lower long screw protrusions having left end positions same as left end positions of the upper screw protrusions, and each having a length longer than a length of each upper screw protrusion; and oblique screw protrusions extending obliquely from right ends of the lower long screw protrusions and each being connected to a left end of a different one of the upper screw protrusions. The screw cap includes a top wall and an outer circumferential wall. The outer circumferential wall is provided with cap screw protrusions disposed in the same number as the number of the upper screw protrusions.

The container system having a container and a screw-on cap that may that may be screwed onto the container and having an olive that is molded onto the screw-on cap and that is positioned against an annular edge area of the container opening is characterized in that the olive is molded onto the screw-on cap such that it fits against the exterior annular edge area of the container in a sealing manner, and in that the outer annular edge area has a continuously smooth surfaces.

Disrupted closures are described herein which can provide for consistent flow paths for gas transfer from a container. The closures include a sealing member extending on the inside of the closure to contact a vented liner and/or the rim of a container. The sealing member includes a sealing portion and one or more disruptions in the sealing portion to provide gas pathways to the ambient atmosphere.
