A device for dispensing drops with a cap that forms a nozzle, wherein the nozzle features a wall, which is attached to a large-diameter end section and in certain areas realized in the form of an annular neck, as well as a small-diameter end section, which is attached to the annular neck and features an opening, and wherein an axis of the nozzle extends through the opening and the large-diameter end section. The wall of the annular neck is so flexible that the axis of the nozzle is tilted by an angle and a concavity is formed in the region of the annular neck when a force is exerted upon the small-diameter end section. An actuating projection for exerting the force is assigned to the small-diameter end section and protrudes transverse to the nozzle axis, wherein the actuating projection is formed by a collar with a circular horizontal projection.

A dispensing closure (40) for a container (44) of a fluent substance is disclosed. The closure includes a body (54) having an inlet portion (68) defining an inlet flow passage (74) for receiving the fluent substance from the container (44) and an elongate outlet portion (70) defining an outlet flow passage (78) for discharging the fluent substance. The closure (40) further has a valve (56) located within the body (54), across the inlet flow passage (74) and spaced axially inwardly of outlet flow passage (78) to define a chamber (216). The valve (56) has a flexible, resilient valve head portion (160) that has confronting, openable portions (212) movable from a closed configuration to an open configuration when the valve head portion (160) is subjected to a pressure differential acting across the valve head portion (160).

A cap for use on a bottle or other container provides child resistant features and tamper evident features while simplifying packaging. The cap includes a collar that will slide over a bead of the container and resist removal after installation. The outer diameter of the collar is preferably substantially the same diameter as that of the bottom of an outer cap element to provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

A spout and closure assembly for a container are disclosed. The spout has a base end configured to be sealingly securable about the periphery of a dispensing opening of the container, and an outlet end which is movable between a retracted position in which the outlet end lies within or adjacent to the base end and an extended position in which the outlet end lies outward of the base end relative to the container opening. A removable closure cap is securable to the outlet end and a retainer is removably secured about the closure cap. The retainer comprises a detent by which the retainer and closure cap are held within or adjacent to the dispensing opening and also comprises a frangible line of weakness which when broken splits the retainer so as to allow disengagement of the detent, extension of the spout and removal of the closure cap from the outlet end, the frangible line of weakness being positioned in the retainer so that when the retainer is in place with the detent engaged, at least a portion of a force generated by pressure within the container and tending to expel the spout and closure cap is transmitted to the detent without passing through the line of weakness.

The present invention has an object to suppress an external force applied to a container to discharge a content liquid CLq to an appropriate magnitude, to prevent the content liquid CLq discharged from a discharge nozzle 29 from becoming too thick, and to enable the content liquid CLq after discharge to be cut off in an improved manner. A valve part 49 included in a slit valve 7A includes a slit part 49b including slits 55, and an outer circumferential part 49a coupled to a thin-walled tube part 51 (a connecting part). The slit part 49b more easily deforms with a pressure change in the interior space of the container than the outer circumferential part 49a. The slit part 49b deforms in a discharge direction of the content liquid CLq at the time of discharge of the content liquid CLq, and deforms toward a nozzle flow path 29a after the content liquid CLq is discharged.

A dual container, including a container body and a mouth portion attachment. The container body includes an inner bag and an outer shell that is disposed to cover the inner bag, and the inner bag is configured to be extractable from the container body, and the mouth portion attachment is attached to a mouth portion of the inner bag and is configured to be removable from the mouth portion.

A fluid transfer connector or adapter for coupling a container or pharmacy bottle for facilitating the transfer of fluid or medicine from the bottle to a syringe, or from the syringe to the bottle. Optionally, an additional connector can be provided for coupling the fluid transfer connector to the syringe.
