A unit for mixing and dispensing an aerosol precursor composition, and containers to be dispensed therefrom. The unit includes a plurality of bulk material filling stations, the plurality of bulk material filling stations have at least one first filling station with aerosol former and at least one second filling station with a flavor material for creating the aerosol precursor. The unit also includes a bulk consumable pack staging a plurality of containers configured to receive the aerosol precursor, and a robot configured to retrieve a container from the bulk consumable pack and move the container through at least two dimensions to stop at least two of the plurality of bulk material filling stations.

When a known lid member was merely applied to a bottle that contains ink, there was room for improvement in terms of the operation of the lid member and the way how to bring attention to the handling thereof.

A bottle set is provided that includes: a bottle that includes an ink container that contains ink, and an outflow port through which the ink in the ink container flows out to the outside; and a lid member that is configured to attach to and detach from the bottle, and is configured to cover the outflow port in a state of being attached to the bottle. The lid member includes a colored portion that has optical transparency and is colored with a color corresponding to a type of the ink contained in the ink container in at least a portion of the lid member.

A cap is provided for coupling to a container. The cap includes a closure and an insert that may be coupled together prior to affixing the cap to a container. The insert may include a removable wall coupled to a pull tab, the removable wall detaching from the insert in response to a user pulling on the pull tab.

An apparatus for securing a vessel includes a primary cap having a threaded portion that is configured to selectively engage corresponding threads of a vessel to secure the primary cap to the vessel, and at least one projection. The apparatus further includes a removable secondary cap configured to engage the primary cap to secure the vessel, the secondary cap including at least one lug, the lug having a shear zone that contacts the projection when the primary and secondary caps are engaged and secured to a vessel. When the secondary cap is removed from the primary cap, the shear zone is broken by the projection such that the secondary cap cannot by reinstalled on the primary cap.

A bi-injection molded housing of a locking cap for a pharmaceutical vial includes a first material forming an upper ring, legs having upper ends rigidly connected to the upper ring, and bridges connecting lower ends of the legs in pairs, at least some bridges comprising a flexible tab configured to engage under a flange of the vial. The housing further includes a second elastomer material forming a stopper configured to seal the vial when the flexible tabs engage under the flange. At least one inner face of the upper ring made of the first material is rigidly connected to the stopper made of the second material.
