Soft chug lid for beverage container
A lid assembly for a beverage container is provided. The lid assembly has a lid base, a mouthpiece and a lid dome. The mouthpiece is connected to the lid base and has an extended annular member with a first end and a drink aperture extending through a center of the annular member. The lid dome is pivotally connected to the lid base and pivots between an open position and a closed position. The lid dome has a protrusion that extends from an inner surface of the lid dome, and a seal surface that operates to seal against the first end of the annular member of the mouthpiece to close the drink aperture when the lid dome is in the closed position. The protrusion is generally seated within the drink aperture when the lid dome is in the closed position.
LID ASSEMBLY FOR A BEVERAGE CONTAINER
A lid for use with a beverage container is described. The lid includes a lid body to fit into an opening of the beverage container. The lid includes a stopper that threadably engages with the lid body. A fluid passage is formed between the lid body and the stopper. The rotation of the stopper relative to the lid body provides an indication that the stopper and the lid body are in the open configuration and/or the removable configuration. The indication may include an audible indication, a tactile indication, or an increase in resistance.
Container, closure, and methods for manufacture
In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods provided herein are useful for dispensing a fluid, such as a thixotropic fluid. In some embodiments, a bottle having a closure cap includes a flip top, a base, and a disk, where the base and disk define a mixing chamber configured to facilitate mixing of any serum or liquid separated from the fluid back therein. In some configurations, the base has a central opening through which the fluid exits and an internal shaft with a non-planar end surface opposite the central opening. In some configurations, the non-planar end surface and the disk define channels between the mixing chamber and the internal shaft. In some embodiments, the disk includes a central opening, a plurality of partial annular openings through a planar surface of the disk, and projections extending into the mixing chamber.
Dual chambered canteen with interchangeable spouts
A beverage canteen container of various materials but not limited to plastic, stainless steel, glass etc. having at least two manufactured compartments separated by a non removable partition wall which features a sleek contour body canteen design and allows the canteen container to hold two separate liquids, pureed or solid food in the canteen. The interchangeable canteen lid will have two interchangeable flip-up Y-spout designs. The first flip-up Y-spout design will allow two products to be extracted from both chambers of the canteen bottom and blend together when extracted through the single elongated tube end into the mouth. The second flip-up Split Y-spout design is split through the end of the Y, resulting in two individual elongated tubes and will provide individual product extraction. Both the Y-spout or the Split Y-spout can be attached and reattached to the top of the canteen lid by two pivotal balls with axles on opposite side of the balls. The axles also secures the spout to the top of the lid's base for opening and closing the spout. There are O-rings located around the non-removable base opening of the canteen lid and will be underneath the pivotal balls. The O-rings will seal the opening when the spouts are in an opened position for an airtight seal between the spouts and the chambers. There are vent release plugs located underneath both the Y-spout and the Split Y-spout to plug the atmosphere vent release holes located on top of the lid when the spouts are in the closed position and will provide an airtight seal when in the closed position. The canteen lid is designed to snap tightly and securely seal by an inverted J shaped peripheral section around the edge of the lid for latching and locking in an airtight position without needing a gasket, so there is no gasket for this design! There lid has two separate non-removable inner wall compartments on the underside that fits inside each chamber of the canteen container bottom with the means of ensuring proper positioning of the lid over each compartment and will assist in preventing the mixing of products from either chamber and will provide an airtight seal for each chamber. Also, the separate inner walls located underneath the lids are ingenious for ensuring that the lid will easily fit the top of each chamber while providing an extra step in ensuring separating the chambers for liquids, puree or solid foods. There are (optional) straw inserts attachment constructed underneath the lid and can be used for sipping purposes. The canteen can be turned upward for a chug a lug product extraction experience.
Applicator
Provided is an applicator for applying a solvent cement, the applicator having a deformable container for containing the solvent cement, a nozzle, a valve located between the container, and the nozzle. The valve is changeable between an open condition where the solvent cement can move from the container to the nozzle and a closed condition where solvent cement is inhibited from moving from the container to the nozzle, and a disperser attached to the nozzle. The disperser is adapted to disperse solvent cement that flows from the nozzle.
LIQUID REFILL CONTAINER FOR REFILLING LIQUID DISCHARGE APPARATUS WITH LIQUID, AND REUSE SYSTEM USING LIQUID REFILL CONTAINER
A liquid refill container for refilling a liquid discharge apparatus with liquid includes a liquid storage portion, a pouring portion, and a cap portion. The liquid storage portion is made of a metal and contains liquid. The pouring portion is removeably connected to the liquid storage portion and has an outlet for pouring the liquid. The cap portion is removeably attached to the pouring portion and covers the outlet.
LID ASSEMBLY FOR A FLUID VESSEL
A valve for a lid of a fluid vessel includes a valve body having an adapter portion coupling first and second opposite ends of the valve body. The first and second ends are rotatably fixed to each other and have an angle formed therebetween. The adapter portion is configured to be rotatably coupled to the lid about a first axis. The first end of the valve body is configured to be coupled to a button for rotating the first end about the first axis. The valve includes a stopper coupled to the second end of the valve body and configured to cover an opening in the lid. The stopper is configured to be separated from the opening when the first end of the valve body is rotated in a first direction about the first axis.
SPOUT CAP, SPOUT, AND CONTAINER WITH SPOUT
The spout cap of the present invention includes: a cap body that tubularly surrounds a mouth portion of a spout body, and is an injection molded article made of resin; and a sealing film that is bonded to one side in a penetration direction of the cap body and can be thermally bonded to a tip surface of the mouth portion. The cap body includes a tubular body portion, and a tab portion disposed outside in a caliber direction with respect to the body portion. The tab portion includes a tab base portion that projects outward in the caliber direction from the other side in the penetration direction of the body portion, and a tab body portion that extends from the tab base portion toward the one side in the penetration direction and faces the body portion on an outside in the caliber direction.
Assembly and method for delivery of micro-volume droplets from a squeeze bottle
A method and assembly for attaching to a container and configured to reduce the volume of a droplet of fluid ejected from the container wherein the assembly is securable to the container without alteration of the container and wherein the volume of the droplet is reduced on a microliter scale. The assembly comprises a base for securing a neck of the container; a tip for securing over a dispensing outlet of the container; and optionally a cap for securing over the tip and connecting to the base.
Cap having a spoon-shaped closure
A cap for use with a container may include a body having an opening extending there through. The opening may include a product pathway extending from an upper surface of the body, a flow restrictor, and a coupling mechanism configured to removably couple the body to the container. The cap may also include a closure coupled to the body. The closure may selectively cover the opening and include a spoon shape having a concave surface. The body may further include a stop to limit rotation of the closure relative to the body. The body and/or a container configured for use with the body may further include a child lock feature.
