A gravity based dispenser for use with a bottle of liquid. The dispenser hangs about the neck of a user and allows the user to selectively dispense water from the water bottle while the user maintains a valve of the dispenser in an open position. In a closed position, the valve of the dispenser prevents the flow of liquid from the bottle to which the dispenser is attached. The valve is biased to the closed position. In this way, a user may use water to wash their hands using a single water bottle without using unnecessary quantities of water.

A dispenser is provided for dispensing liquid from a standardized container (e.g., a water bottle). A gravity based dispenser for use with a bottle of liquid (e.g., water bottle) hangs about the neck of a user and allows the user to selectively dispense water from the water bottle while the user maintains a valve of the dispenser in an open position. In a closed position, the valve of the dispenser prevents the flow of liquid from the bottle to which the dispenser is attached. The valve is biased to the closed position.

A combination bottle and system for devising combination bottles for the retention of liquids and other pliable items is provided. A base container unit with an open mouth is configured to retain liquids and exhibits a base unit perimeter lip with an attachment configuration and the base container unit may be combined with various capacity adding units which have perimeter lips with a variety of attachment configurations that allow attachment between the base unit and the capacity-adding unit(s). The base container unit may be combined either alone or with various numbers of capacity adding units with one or more top units that have top unit perimeter lips with top unit attachment configurations mateable with the various constituent members of the combination bottle system. Various top units are provided which exhibit functional end selected from the group of: sippy cup functional end, straw functional end, and nipple functional end. By varying the size of perimeter lips and projection aspect, necks may be created in constituted bottles providing convenient hand-holds. Some embodiments of the present invention are also directed to kits that include various bottle components suitable for particular applications. Some embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method for assembling a combination bottle from a combination bottle system and changing the capacity (volume) of the combination bottle on-the-go by interchanging components of the combination bottle system.

A cartridge system for delivering an aqueous solution, which consists of a mixture of an active material with a liquid medium, including a bottle-shaped container, fastened to the neck of which there is a pump, where the container is fillable with the liquid medium, and the container includes a cartridge, an intake tube of a pump sealingly inserted in an upper side of the cartridge, wherein the active material is fillable into the cartridge through the intake tube, the cartridge is sealed from an exterior by at least one piston or stopper, the at least one piston or stopper being movably arranged in a wall of the cartridge and configured to enter into an interior of the cartridge under reduced pressure produced by the pump and opens to the exterior of the cartridge so that the active material is mixable with the liquid medium.

Tapping assembly for a beverage, including container including a first and second container, wherein the first container has a neck portion and the second container is suspended in the first container, from the neck portion thereof. A neck region of the container is provided with at least one opening in a side wall thereof, preferably in a neck region of the first container, opening into a space between the first and second containers. The assembly further includes a connecting device, connected or connectable to the neck portion, wherein the connecting device includes at least one connecting element for connecting to the at least one opening, wherein the connecting element is connected to a source of pressurised gas.

A blow-molded bottle including a top portion, a bottom portion and a collapsible portion. The collapsible portion further includes opposing panels and opposing sidewalls, the opposing panels having a contoured shape defined by a compound curvature. The compound curvature is defined by a convex longitudinally extending curvature and a concave laterally extending curvature extending between the opposing sidewalls. Application of a force to the opposing panels causes the opposing panels to collapse from an uncollapsed state to a collapsed state, and non-application of the force to the opposing panels returns the opposing panels to the uncollapsed state.

Tapping assembly for a beverage, including container including a first and second container, wherein the first container has a neck portion and the second container is suspended in the first container, from the neck portion thereof. A neck region of the container is provided with at least one opening in a side wall thereof, preferably in a neck region of the first container, opening into a space between the first and second containers. The assembly further includes a connecting device, connected or connectable to the neck portion, wherein the connecting device includes at least one connecting element for connecting to the at least one opening, wherein the connecting element is connected to a source of pressurized gas.

A primary storage (2) container has a body portion (4), a neck portion (6) extending from the body portion, the neck portion providing an outlet of the primary storage container, an annular fitting (10) on the neck portion for fitting a closure (12) onto the primary storage container and at least one cutting element (14) extending outwardly of the fitting in a direction away from the outlet (8); and wherein the fitting has a first bayonet coupling (42) for releasably locking into the fitting a flange (36) forming a second bayonet coupling (44). A refill container (32) has a chamber portion (34), filled with a dose of a refill composition, the chamber portion having an annular flange defining (36) an opening (38) of the chamber portion (34), and a frangible film (40) covering the opening and attached to the annular flange (36), wherein the flange (36) has a male bayonet coupling (44). The primary storage container and the refill container (32) are combined in a packaging system.
