A dispensing device may be used to dispense fluids for a variety of uses. A dispensing device may include a flexible tube body with a nozzle coupled to a first end of the flexible tube body. A closure location may be coupled to a second end of the flexible tube body. At least one seal may be coupled to the flexible tube body at a location between the nozzle and the closure location. The at least one seal separates the flexible tube body into a plurality of chambers when the at least one seal is sealed. Additionally, a plunger may be placed in the flexible tube body and may fit in the chambers.

A single serve, fillable condiment packet for use by an end user to selectively retain and then dispense a desired substance. The single serve condiment packet includes an elongated packet body that has opposing resealable ends, a permanently sealed top edge, and a permanently sealed bottom edge. In one embodiment, each end of the packet body is defined by a conventional zip lock style closure which is individually operative to be opened by pulling apart the elements of the closure and sealed by pressing together the elements of the closure. The top edge is heat sealed and includes a tear notch adjacent to each end, positioned to allow a user to easily open the packet body at a location adjacent to the respective end.

A travel container for storing liquids and ideally sized for convenient transport and storage is provided and comprises a first end having an opening that is configured to receive a cap that is releasably secured to the first end of the container to hold the liquid inside the container when the cap is in a closed position and to allow for liquid to be dispensed from the container when the cap is deployed in an open position; a body that is constructed of a flexible material that allows the container to be reshaped into a folded or rolled up state; a second end featuring a heavy duty zip lock that allows for opening and closing the container for ease of refilling the container with liquid to be dispensed; and a small tab attached to the container at its second end that allows the container to be hung in place. Optionally, a waterproof pocket is provided on the side of the container in which a label may be inserted to identify the contents of the container.

Provided is power work equipment using a fuel container and/or a lubricating oil container that is/are easily replaced for the power work equipment, and supply(ies) liquid fuel and/or lubricating oil optimized for driving. A chainsaw (1A) (power work equipment) includes a main body (10) having an internal combustion engine (50), and a fuel container (90A) and/or a lubricating oil container (100A) detachably attached to the main body (10). A connection part (92) of the fuel container (90A) is connected with the fuel suction unit (60) in a liquid-tight manner, and the bag (91) is configured to collapse as liquid fuel (F) in the bag (91) decreases. A connection part (102) of the lubricating oil container (100A) is connected with a lubricating-oil suction unit (70) in a liquid-tight manner, and a bag (101) is configured to collapse as lubricating oil (L) in the bag (101) decreases.

Provided is a small drug feeder that includes a container that can restrict the width or height of drugs so that the feeder can handle a wide range of drugs having various different shapes or sizes and be easily adjusted so as to be adapted to individual drugs. A width restricting member that increases or decreases a width of a space over a peripheral portion is disposed so as to face a discharging mechanism that discharges drugs to the outside of a container at speed higher than that of the peripheral portion. An interval between the width restricting member and the discharging mechanism is changed in accordance with a width of a target of measurement held in a measurement chamber. The height of drugs placed on the peripheral portion is restricted by a height restricting member in accordance with the height of the target of measurement.
