A liquid dispensing container may include a body, lid, valve assembly, and straw. The valve assembly may be movable between a first position to allow contents to be discharged by inverting and/or squeezing the container, and a second position to allow the contents to be discharged by sucking and/or squeezing through a straw.

A bubble liquid bottle includes a bottle body, a pad covering a mouth of the bottle body, a straw connected to a communication opening of the pad and inserted into the bottle body, and a head. The head is disposed on the mouth and includes a main body having outlet, inlet, and communication channels, a handle, and a pressure-relief device disposed in the communication channel and including a stopper, an elastic member for driving the stopper to block communication between the outlet channel and the communication opening, and a ring located above the outlet channel and sleeving the stopper. The handle is pivoted to the main body and inserted into the stopper for moving the stopper upward. When an internal pressure of the bottle body is greater than a predetermined value, the stopper is moved upward by the internal pressure to make the outlet channel communicated with the communication opening.

A liquid dispensing container may include a body, lid, valve assembly, and straw. The valve assembly may be movable between a first position to allow contents to be discharged by inverting and/or squeezing the container, and a second position to allow the contents to be discharged by sucking and/or squeezing through a straw.

A method and apparatus for powder dosing a nutritional composition may include a container body and a closure removably coupled to the container body. A nutritive substance may be retained between an upper portion of the container body and the closure. The nutritive substance may be released and mixed with the contents of the container body prior to consumption. The nutritive substance may be sealed prior to use in order to prevent contamination of the nutritive substance.

The invention relates to a protective cap for a dispenser, and to a dispenser for discharging pharmaceutical and/or cosmetical liquids, wherein the dispenser has a liquid reservoir and an outlet opening through which the liquid can be discharged into a surrounding atmosphere. The protective cap comprises an outer cap and an inner element inserted therein, wherein either at least one ventilation channel, which can be closed by means of a shut-off element and provides communication between an interior of the protective cap and an external environment, is formed between the outer cap and the inner element, or the inner element closes a ventilation opening of the outer cap.

A bottle push-pull aseptic dispenser cap comprising a guide-body having a reference axis and designed to be coupled to the mouth of a bottle; the guide-body being provided with a tubular shaped inner chamber closed at the bottom, and with through openings designed to place the inner space of the bottle in communication with the inner chamber. The cap further comprises a shutter-nipple which is coupled in an axially sliding manner to the guide-body so as to translate axially inside the inner chamber along the reference axis, between a retracted position, in which the shutter-nipple closes the through openings in a fluid-tight manner, and an extracted position, in which the shutter-nipple projects cantilevered outwardly from the guide-body and disengages the through openings so as to be able to receive, from the latter, said beverage through said inner chamber.

A closure (1) for a container (9), or for an ampoule (9), in which a medicament is accommodated, having a closure cap (2) and a closure stopper (5) accommodated in the closure (2). Detent moldings (6) are formed on the closure cap (2) for latchingly holding the closure (1) on the ampoule (9), and a sliding part (3) is provided which is movable relative to the closure cap (2) in order to displace the closure stopper (5) into the closed position. In order to advantageously provide, with respect to carrying out a freeze-drying process, a closure for a container, or for an ampoule, in which a medicament is accommodated, the closure stopper (5) is displaceable relative to the cap (2) by means of the sliding part (3) in order to move the closure stopper into the closed position. There is also a method for carrying out a freeze-drying process for a medium, or for a medicament, which is accommodated in a container, or in an ampoule (9).

The present invention is a no-spill cup apparatus having a magnetic closure element that acts to open and close a liquid flow channel. The no-spill cup design permits the liquid flow channel to be opened or closed by grasping the handle or by pressing a button on the exterior of the cup. The magnetic closure follows a helical channel that permits a magnetic ring to engage and disengage from a ferrous ring disposed within a channel of the upper lid, sealing the liquid within the body of the cup when the pull lever or button is not engaged. The cup may also provide an ability to control the liquid flow speed to keep the liquid flow within an easy range for drinking.

Fluid couplings such as threaded bottle cap devices can be configured for attachment to bottles or containers of fluids. In some embodiments, such threaded bottle cap devices can include an integrated valve mechanism and/or anti-removal features.

A fluid storage and/or dispensing system includes a fluid container having a hollow interior adapted to contain a fluid, such as gas, to be dispensed. A fluid dispenser has a dispenser passageway extending from an inlet end to an outlet end. A venting system is provided within the dispenser body. The venting system includes one or more air inlets in the dispenser body that introduce air into the dispenser passageway and vents a sufficient amount of air back into the fluid container to decrease negative pressure generated within the fluid container during dispensing. A self-closing valve system include a valve member that prevents the flow of fluid from the fluid container into the dispenser body and an actuating mechanism that can be manipulated by a user to open the valve member and allow fluid to flow from the fluid container into the dispenser body.
