A closure assembly for a carton, which includes a closure, a neck to which the closure is mounted and a cutter received within the neck for piercing a foil of the carton. The closure includes a retaining ring for securement around the container neck below an annular flange of the neck, a lid pivotally connected to the retaining ring and a tamper evidence band frangibly connected to the retaining ring. The closure engages the cutter when it is rotated, which causes the cutter to pierce the foil of the carton as the closure is opened. The tamper evidence band has a rotational stop which engages a rotational stop of the container neck to separate the tamper evidence band from the retaining ring on first rotation of the closure in the opening direction.

Provided is an ejection cap capable of smoothly and reliably breaking through a film closing a mouth part of a container body and ejecting a content inside a container. An ejection cap (1) comprising an asymmetric cutter (6) that hangs from a lower surface of a top plate part of a substantially cylindrical dispensing cylinder (4) threadedly engaging a mouth part (3a) of a container body (3) closed by a film (2) and penetrating the film to eject a content, and that has a notch part (7) at a lateral surface on a side opposite to a threadedly engaging rotating direction on a substantially circumference at the tip of the dispensing cylinder.

Fluid product dispenser having a fluid product reservoir with a neck defining an opening and an upper annular edge. The reservoir has a blocking member which seals the opening of the neck, the blocking member having a pierceable membrane, the pierceable membrane is disposed inside the neck axially away from the upper annular edge. The dispenser has an assembly having a dispensing member, such as a pump or a valve, received in the blocking member of the reservoir, the assembly having a piercing mechanism for piercing the pierceable membrane. The piercing mechanism has a piercing tip formed at the lower end of a sheath in which the dispensing member is received.

An indexable dispenser extracts single-serving doses from a multi-serving supplements cartridge for delivery as a drinkable solution. The indexable dispenser includes a lance that punctures one serving chamber at a time so that its granulated contents can be drained into a mixing cup. The lance is attached to a rotatable flap, along with a spur. The spur punctures a membrane covering a marker zone when the flap is closed to enable machine readability. The granulated supplements are mixed with water before consumption. The indexable dispenser is configured with a dispensing window to reveal only one serving chamber at a time. The supplements cartridge is manually positioned so that an unopened serving chamber is presented in the dispensing window each time for extracting its supplements. The mixing cup may be collapsible, and together with a cap, stored in a cavity of the supplements cartridge for travel.

This inventive concept relates to a hollow body for being attached to a container for a liquid food product, the hollow body comprising a first piece and a second piece. At least a portion of a periphery of the first piece is attached to at least a portion of a periphery of the second piece in order to form the hollow body. Further, it is presented related methods for producing a package comprising a container and a hollow body.

A dispensing cap comprising a dispensing orifice and an anti-glug orifice, the cap further comprising a closure member movable from a closed position to an open position, in which in the closed position the anti-glug orifice is blocked by the closure member and the dispensing orifice is closed, and in the open position the dispensing orifice is open and the anti-glug orifice is unblocked.

A closure including a base, a cutter and a cap is described which is configured to be attached to a container. Upon initial removal of the cap from the base, the cutter is configured to move downwards relative to the base so as to create an opening through the container. The portion of the container through which the cutter creates an opening may be formed of a film that is configured to be easily pierceable by the cutter. Methods of molding the closure components may include co-molding the cutter and base an in integral unit so as to facilitate and expedite assembly of the base, cutter and cap components to form the closure.

A delivery system for flowable substances includes a squeezable container having a sealed proximal end, a sealed distal end having a dispensing neck, and an outer wall that surrounds a storage reservoir. The delivery system has a container support frame assembled with the squeezable container having a proximal edge secured to the sealed proximal end of the squeezable container, a distal edge secured to the dispensing neck of the squeezable container, and first and second lateral edges extending between the proximal and distal edges and overlying opposing sides of the squeezable container. The proximal and distal edges and the first and second lateral edges define a central opening of the container support frame that provides access to the outer wall of the squeezable container. The container support frame has an elongated handle that extends proximally from the proximal edge of the container support frame.

A delaminatable container, including: a container body; and a press-fit cap mounted to the container body. The container body is configured to include a storage portion to store contents and a mouth having an opening to discharge the contents from the storage portion, the storage portion and the mouth having an outer layer and an inner layer, and having an inner bag composed of the inner layer to be shrunk with a decrease in the contents, the mouth includes a mouth-side engagement section provided along an outer circumferential surface of the mouth, the cap includes a cap-side engagement section provided along an inner circumferential surface of the cap, the mouth-side engagement section and the cap-side engagement section are configured to be engageable with each other while the cap is mounted to the mouth.
