An aerosol dispenser, an outer container for an aerosol dispenser and a preform for an outer container. The aerosol dispenser, outer container and preform each have a neck, which in turn has a crimp ring, to receive a valve cup clinched thereto. The crimp ring has a polygonal cross section providing alternating flat sides and vertices. The flat sides both function as integral vents and allow parallel translation of mold cavities so that a two piece molding apparatus may be used.

A package including a fitment for dispensing a liquid from a flexible bag is disclosed. The fitment is secured to the bag and includes a compressible bulb and a piercing member that are coupled together. In two embodiments the fitment is configured so that the piercing member pierces through a wall of the bag to dispense the bag's contents through an outlet port of the fitment. One of those embodiments includes a separate valve to open and close the outlet port. Another embodiment does not include a separate valve to open and close the outlet port. A third embodiment makes use of a fitment connected to a filling gland of the bag and which is in communication with the interior of the bag. That third embodiment includes a frangible seal forming part of the fitment and which is pierced by the piercing member to dispense the liquid from the bag.

The present invention provides a technique for a multi-layered container that includes an adhesive layer for bonding adjacent layers, with which it is possible to reduce the possibility of a problem such as a reduction in the function (bonding function) of the adhesive layer occurring. A liquid container for supplying a liquid to a liquid consumption apparatus includes a liquid containing portion, a connection portion that allows the liquid contained in the liquid containing portion to flow into the liquid consumption apparatus, and a housing box that houses the liquid containing portion. The liquid containing portion forms a layer structure in which a plurality of layers are disposed from the inside toward the outside. The layer structure includes an adhesive layer, a gas barrier layer that is provided inward of the adhesive layer, and a moisture barrier layer that is provided outward of the gas barrier layer.

A flexible pouch having a pair of spaced apart flaps is provided. The flexible pouch includes a pouch body having a generally cylindrical shape. The flaps are disposed along the longitudinal length of the pouch body as to help prevent the pouch body from rolling over when laid on its length. The pouch may further include a fitment and an intermediate portion having a ramp shaped portion. The ramp shaped portion is opposite the fitment and slanted so as to direct fluids towards the fitment.

A containment enclosure is shown and described. The enclosure is suitable for enclosing an offgas producing object such as an electronic device undergoing a thermal excursion, or a fire containment bag in which such an offgas producing object is contained. The containment enclosure includes an overpressure protection device and internal and external filters to prevent the enclosure from overpressuring while at the same time minimizing the emission of toxins or contaminants to the atmosphere.

An apparatus includes a box including one or more side walls, each of which defines an inside surface. A bag is disposed in an internal region defined by the box. Drinking water is contained in the bag, the water being non-alcoholic. The bag is adapted to protect the water from contaminants, tastes, and odors, each of which originates from either the bag itself or a source external to the bag. A water-resistant coating may be applied to the respective inside surfaces. When condensate forms on the bag, the water-resistant coating at least resists absorption of the condensate into the one or more side walls. The apparatus may include a spout, which permits the water to be dispensed from the bag for human consumption. In an exemplary embodiment, the water is treated with a sanitizing additive such as, for example, ozone. The apparatus mitigates the environmental impacts of drinking water packaging.

A dispensing assembly for a liquid container including a ring part configured to be mounted to a liquid container, a resilient member positioned in the ring part to be in contact with the liquid contents of the liquid container, a ring member mountable to the ring part to secure the resilient member to the ring part, and a hollow connecting member with an outlet. The connecting member is releasably securable to the ring member and includes a hollow projecting member which, when the connecting member is secured to the ring member, engages the resilient member so as to urge an opening in the resilient member to permit liquid in the container to pass into the connecting member and subsequently out through the outlet.

A liquid dispensing system for dispensing a liquid comprises an insulated housing comprising a top wall and a side wall mounted to the top wall, the side wall extending downwardly from the top wall to define an interior configured to receive a refill container comprising a liquid; a bottom surface mounted to the housing at a mounting interface and configured to enclose the interior of the housing; a sloped surface mounted within the interior of the housing and configured to induce the liquid within the refill container to flow toward a dispensing aperture through which the liquid is dispensed from the system; and a pump assembly in fluid communication with the interior of the housing, the pump assembly comprising a gas source and configured to deliver a gas from the gas source to the interior of the housing to apply pressure to the refill container.

Provided is a delamination container having improved oxygen barrier properties. The present invention provides a delamination container provided with a container body having an outer shell and an inner pouch, the inner pouch being adapted to delaminate from the outer shell and contract in association with a decrease of the contents, wherein the inner layer constituting the inner pouch is provided with, in order from the container outer surface side, an outside layer, an adhesive layer, and an inside layer. The outside layer includes an EVOH layer, and the inside layer has a thickness of 60-200 m and a flexural modulus of 250 MPa or less, the value (thickness of the inside layer/thickness of the EVOH layer) being 1.1-5, and the total thickness of the inside layer being 100-250 m.

A discharge tap (10) for liquid containers, in particular for connecting to the outlet neck or the outlet opening of a transportation and storage container for liquids, having a tap housing (11) in which a valve body being pivotable around a valve axle by means of a handle (12) for opening and closing a flow cross section of an outlet tube (13) is arranged, said handle being provided with a handle stop and a housing dome of the tap housing being provided with a housing stop, said handle stop and said housing stop being able to be locked relatively to each other via a securing device (16) for securing the locking position, the securing device (16) comprising a stop bolt (17) being able to be displaceable between a bolting position and an unbolting position in a translatory manner in direction of the valve axle.
