A closure assembly (20) that includes a cap or overcap (28) and a fitment (24) for a container is provided wherein the fitment (24) has a laterally projecting shear member (40), and the overcap (28) has an aperture (74) for initially receiving the shear member (40) when the overcap (28) and fitment (24) are in an initially assembled orientation or condition. The aperture (74) and the shear member (40) cooperate in the initially assembled orientation such that when subjected to a flow of a sterilizing gas, turbulence is created in the sterilizing gas flow to enhance sterilization of the combination. The closure assembly (20) may, instead, or additionally, be provided wherein the overcap (28) has an elongate, hollow plug (58) for establishing a first seal between the fitment (24) and the overcap (28) in the initially assembled orientation, and the wherein overcap (28) has a skirt (50) for establishing a second seal between the fitment (24) and the overcap (28) in the initially assembled orientation.

A bottle for a refill for dispensing a volatile material includes a body defined by at least one sidewall and a neck extending upwardly from the at least one sidewall. The neck includes a rim at an upper end of the neck. The rim is defined by at least an inner surface, a chamfered surface, a top surface, and an outer surface. The sidewall extends upwardly from a bottom wall and bows outwardly from a longitudinal axis. A channel of the bottle defines the longitudinal axis. The chamfered surface adjoins the inner surface of the rim. The entire chamfered surface is tapered at an angle of between about 2 and about 9 degrees with respect to the longitudinal axis.

Disclosed is a connection device to be coupled with a container neck in different standards for use. The connection device is formed with a mouth part at the upper side and a screw thread part at the lower side. The mouth part at the upper portion of the connection device is formed in a screw thread or other shape in the standard corresponding to a bottle lid, and the inside of the screw thread part is formed with a screw thread corresponding to the standard of the container neck. The screw thread is integrally formed or an elastic screw thread is additionally added for the coupling with the necks of a plurality of containers.

A method comprises the steps of: providing a cap-shaped body (2; 102), said body (2; 102) having a side wall (4) extending around an axis (Z) and a transverse wall (5; 105) arranged transversely to the axis (Z) for delimiting a concavity (7) of the body (2), the transverse wall (5; 105) having an inner face (8; 108) facing the concavity (7) and an outer face (9; 109) opposite the inner face (8; 108); placing a dose (43) of polymeric material on the outer face (9; 109) of the transverse wall (5; 105); compression moulding the dose (43) in contact with the outer face (9; 109), thereby obtaining a shaped element (3) from the dose (43), said shaped element (3) being attached to the transverse wall (5; 105).

A plastic formed body having a pouring port 110 for pouring out highly wetting liquid that wets plastics to a high degree, wherein at least either a surface 110b that becomes a liquid-drip flow passage when said liquid drips at the pouring port 110 or a surface 110a that becomes a flow passage when said liquid is poured out, is coated with a fluorine-contained resin, and a surface of the fluorine-contained resin coating has an arithmetic mean roughness (Ra) in a range of 0.4 to 200 m in the surface roughness measurement and an element mean height (Rh) in a range of 0.04 to 10 as defined by mean height (Rc)/element mean length (RSm) in the linear roughness measurement. The formed body effectively prevents said highly wetting liquid from dripping at the pouring port 110.

The invention provides a container closure assembly comprising: a container neck (10) having side walls defining an opening at one end thereof and a lip (14) extending around the opening; a cap (12) for said neck, the cap having a base portion (22) and a threaded skirt portion (24); a first screw thread (16) on the neck; a second screw thread (26) on an inner surface of the threaded skirt of the cap; said first and second screw threads being configured to enable a user to secure, remove and resecure the cap into a sealing position on the neck by rotation of the cap on the neck; a sealing plug (52) extending from said base portion of the cap inside and substantially concentric with said threaded skirt portion of the cap, wherein the sealing plug is an olive sealing plug for forming a seal against an inside surface of the container neck when the cap is secured on the container neck; and a sealing skirt (54) extending from said base portion of the cap intermediate said sealing plug and said threaded skirt portion of the cap and substantially concentric with said sealing plug and said threaded skirt portion of the cap, wherein said cap can be displaced towards said neck from said sealing position by application of an axial force without rotation of the cap on the neck and substantially without plastic deformation of the cap.
