A further embodiment of the device includes material wherein the cap is comprised of material more rigid than the tapered, flexible neck.
TAMPER-EVIDENT CLOSURE
A closure (100) for a container (104) comprises a base (106) and a spout (110) disposed upon a mouth of said container (104) and defining a void space (134) between them; a cap (118) which comprises an inner body (124) concentrically disposed within an outer body (122), said cap configured to be disposed on said base (106) so as to seal therewith; and at least one tamper-evident device (136) extending between and locking together said cap (118) and said base (106), said tamper-evident device (136) comprising a flattened member extending from an edge of said inner body member (124) over at least one frangible link (140) and engaging said base (106) such that when the cap (118) is opened said at least one frangible link (140) ruptures, said tamper-evident device (136) consequently falling into and being partially obscured by said void space (134).
LINER FOR A CONTAINER CLOSURE AND PACKAGE USING THE CLOSURE AND LINER
A liner (100) and closure (106) are provided for being initially assembled and subsequently installed on a container (104) of a product to create a package (107, 107A). The liner (100) is provided for being disposed between, and sealed to, the container (104) and the closure (106) mounted thereon. The liner (100) includes a metallic substrate layer (200) that is an aluminum alloy and that is located between first and second heat-sealable layers (212, 200), respectively. The liner (100) has a through hole (252), and the metallic substrate layer (200) has a laterally inward edge surface (210) that is exposed at the through hole (252).
FLIP-TOP CLOSURE
A flip-top closure includes first and second polymeric closure portions. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion, a sealing mechanism and an annular skirt portion. The second closure portion includes a tamper-evident band. The closure portions are attached by a line of weakness. The closure portions are further attached via a hinge. The hinge includes a locking tab, a flexible tab and linking segments. The locking tab extends further outwardly from a center of the closure in a closed position than the flexible tab and the linking segments. During the opening of the flip-top closure, the locking tab moves and passes the flexible tab such that the flip-top closure locks in a fully open position.
Liner for a container closure and package using the closure and liner
A liner (100) and closure (106) are provided for being initially assembled and subsequently installed on a container (104) of a product to create a package (107, 107A). The liner (100) is provided for being disposed between, and sealed to, the container (104) and the closure (106) mounted thereon. The liner (100) includes a metallic substrate layer (200) that is an aluminum alloy and that is located between first and second heat-sealable layers (212, 200), respectively. The liner (100) has a through hole (252), and the metallic substrate layer (200) has a laterally inward edge surface (210) that is exposed at the through hole (252).
Fan orifice dispensing closure
A dispensing closure for a squeeze-type container produces a fan-type spray in a low pressure environment. The dispensing closure includes a closure body having an upper deck and a skirt depending from the upper deck. The skirt is configured and arranged to attach to a product container, such as a squeeze-type container. A flow conduit extends from an interior of the closure body and through the upper deck to provide a flow path from an interior of the closure to an exterior of the closure. The flow conduit has an entrance orifice and an exit orifice. The flow conduit has an inner wall extending between the entrance orifice and the exit orifice. The flow conduit and the closure body are integrally formed. The flow conduit includes a tip portion with an exit orifice defining a shape to provide a fan-type spray in a low pressure environment.
SPRAY ATTACHMENT FOR BRINGING OUT FLUID SUBSTANCES IN A JET-LIKE MANNER
A spray attachment for bringing out fluid substances in the manner of a jet includes a cap with an annularly peripheral, closed skirt with a wall, on whose inner side or outer side first fastener is integrally formed. The first fastener can engage a corresponding second fastener of an outer wall or inner wall of a container neck. The skirt at a longitudinal end is closed off by a cover surface having a recess. A receiving part for receiving an insert part is arranged in the region of the recess, and includes a conical receiving surface for receiving a conical peripheral surface of the insert part. The conical receiving service and the conical peripheral surface delimit at least one through-channel for fluid substance, through which the fluid substance can be brought out.
Multi-chamber tube container and cap
A tube cap (104) for a multi-chamber tube container (102) comprises a base plate (106) and a lid (120). The base plate is coupleable to the multi-chamber tube container and has an opening disposed therein, wherein the opening is positionable in communication with at least a first tube head (114) of a first tube (112) of the multi-chamber tube container. The lid is removably coupleable to the base plate and has both a pintle (122) extending from and a gasket (124) disposed on an inner surface thereof. When the lid and the base plate are coupled, the pintle extends into and seals a first orifice (108) disposed in the first tube head and the gasket is urged into sealing contact with a second orifice (110) disposed in a second tube head (118) of a second tube (116) of the multi-chamber tube container.
DISPENSING CLOSURE FOR A CONTAINER
A dispensing closure (40) for use with a container (44) includes a body (54) having a dispensing spout (72) with an interior surface (80) that defines at least a portion of a passage (132) for communicating with the container interior to permit the flow of a fluent substance through the body (54). The dispensing closure (40) includes a closing element (56) attached to the body (54). The closing element (56) defines a transverse cover (130) having a closed position relative to the body (54) and an actuated, open position relative to the body (54). The transverse cover (130) has an outwardly projecting toggle tab (58) for being engaged by a user to move the transverse cover (130) from the closed position to the actuated, open position. The transverse cover (130) further has a flexible, resilient cantilevered sealing portion (142) that seals against the interior surface (80) of the dispensing spout (72) with the transverse cover (130) located in the closed position.
Closure device with opening indicator
Closure device comprising a base (100) and a lid (200) articulated by a hinge (205) comprising at least one opening indicator (207) allowing the user to know that a container has been opened at least once. Prior to the first opening, the opening indicator (207) is attached to the lid (200) by at least one separable connector (208), said separable connector (208) being broken on the opening of the container. The base (100) further comprises at least one housing (111) that receives the opening indicator (207) after its separation and shows it to the user through at least one window (112).
