A liquid dosing device for dispensing a metered dose of liquid from a squeezable container, comprising an outlet passage leading to a discharge opening; a dosing chamber positioned behind said discharge opening and having at least one entrance opening allowing a charging flow of liquid from said container into said dosing chamber under the influence of weight of liquid, and a drive opening allowing a control flow of liquid from said container into said dosing chamber in response on a rise of pressure of liquid in the squeezable container; a floating plunger movably arranged in the dosing chamber so as to advance upon said rise of pressure from a rest position in which under the influence of a lifting force of buoyancy said floating plunger closes said drive opening, into a blocking position in which said floating plunger blocks said outlet passage, wherein said floating plunger when advancing into said blocking position, pushes said liquid charged into said dosing chamber, to said outlet passage; a stop seat upon which said floating plunger acts in its blocking position, and a sealing lip for closing said outlet passage, being arranged such that a seat-sided portion of the floating plunger or a plunger-sided portion of the stop seat and said sealing lip is formed, particularly injection-mold, of one single piece of the same plastic material.

Drink bottles, or drink containers with cap assemblies that include a drink spout. In some embodiments, the drink spout is pivotally coupled to a base of the cap assembly. In some embodiments, the drink spouts include mouthpieces, including self-sealing and/or bite-actuated mouthpieces. In some embodiments, the cap assembly includes a handle, which may include at least one guard for the drink spout and/or mouthpiece. In some embodiments, the drink containers include an on/off valve. In some embodiments, the dispensing spout includes a mount for the mouthpiece and/or cooperates with the cap to provide a manual on/off valve to selectively restrict flow of drink fluid from the drink container regardless of the drink spout's and/or mouthpiece's configuration. In some embodiments, the drink containers include a drink tube extending from external of the drink containers and/or an air return system.

A dispenser (10) for dispensing a flowable material M has a container (12) having an outer wall (20) and membrane (14) collectively defining a first chamber (22) configured to contain the flowable material M. The membrane (14) has a thickness and a weld seam (40) wherein the weld seam (40) has a thickness less than the thickness of the membrane (14). A fracturing mechanism (16) is operably connected to the container (12). The fracturing mechanism (16) has an extending member (64) projecting from the outer wall (20) of the container (12). The extending member (64) has a projection (66) positioned proximate the membrane (14), wherein in response to deflection of the extending member (64), the projection (66) deflects the outer wall (20) proximate the membrane (14) wherein the weld seam (40) fractures creating an opening (41) through the membrane (14) configured to allow the flowable material M to pass therethrough and from the dispenser (10).

A dispensing device includes first and second cylindrical portions which are detachably interconnected end-to-end. The first portion is arranged to store consumables, such as bags, for collecting pet faeces and includes a tubular side-wall 110 having an aperture formed therein through which the consumables can be dispensed. The second portion is arranged to store a fluid such as a hand sanitizer and has an outlet at one end through which the fluid can be dispensed. The dispensing device provides a convenient manner for storing consumables and associated fluids together, so that, for example, a user can sanitize their hands after picking up pet faeces using a dispensed bag.

The invention relates to a cleaning product including an inverted container assembly comprising an inverted container and a liquid dispenser attached to a bottom surface of the inverted container, and a viscous cleaning composition contained in the inverted container assembly. The present invention also relates to the use of the cleaning product for cleaning dishware.

The present invention relates to dispensers for dispensing moisture-sensitive pods and methods of use therewith, and especially dispensers and methods for dispensing moisture-sensitive pods comprising personal care formulation.

A method for distributing granules may include transporting a hopper along a roof while releasing granules through a valve of the hopper, thereby depositing a line of granules on the roof. Another method for distributing granules may include adjusting a valve of a container mounted on a cart, depositing a predetermined width of the granules though the valve onto the roof while driving the cart along a roof, and covering a seam between adjacent sheets of roofing material with the granules. A device for depositing granules on a roof may include a hopper, and a valve, where granules stored in the hopper flow directly through the valve to the roof in response to gravity when the valve is at least partially opened, and where the flow of the granules is not assisted by an agitator, an auger, or air pressure.

Provided is an applicator for applying a solvent cement, the applicator having a deformable container for containing the solvent cement, a nozzle, a valve located between the container, and the nozzle. The valve is changeable between an open condition where the solvent cement can move from the container to the nozzle and a closed condition where solvent cement is inhibited from moving from the container to the nozzle, and a disperser attached to the nozzle. The disperser is adapted to disperse solvent cement that flows from the nozzle.

The device (100) for packaging and dispensing a product, liquid or in gel form, optionally for an ophthalmic application, comprises a container (1) containing the product to be dispensed by a dispensing head (7), as well as a refilling and filtering assembly for the air entering the container (1) after a dispensing, the dispensing head delimiting one or more dosing chambers (5) and including at its end a flexible part (7) which can be actuated to allow the release of the dose of product in a compressed state of said chamber (5). The air refilling and filtering assembly has a sterilizing filter (11) which cooperates with a check valve (12), this assembly (11, 12) being typically located in a central or inner portion of the head (7). The supply of outside air is accomplished by means of a channel (16) leading to an outer orifice (10) able to be obturated by a cover (15).

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.
