A cap assembly for a container, including a base defining a base plane, a drink spout separate from the base and extending away from the base, a closure configured to selectively transition between a closed configuration, in which the closure is engaged with the drink spout and obstructs a passage through the drink spout, and an open configuration, in which the closure is not engaged with the drink spout and does not obstruct the passage through the drink spout, and a closure retention mechanism configured to retain the closure in any one of a plurality of stowed positions against the base.

An applicator for a container, the container for storing a substance to be applied and including an outlet through which the substance is to be discharged, wherein the applicator includes a brush head adapted to be located at the outlet; and a removable nozzle adapted to be optionally mounted over the brush head.

A closure for a flexible thin-walled packaging is provided. The closure has a rigid overcap, applicable directly or indirectly to a spout of the flexible thin-walled packaging, made of a first plastic material, a collar suitable for being inserted on a grip portion of the spout, and a flexible lace connecting the collar to the rigid overcap. The flexible lace is made by bi-injection, together with the overcap and the collar, of a second plastic material, different from the first plastic material.

A closure for a spout has a closure body having an annular body wall extending along a main axis between a closure base and an annular body wall edge. The closure is screwable to a spout having a connecting portion, suitable for welding to thin walls of a package, and a tube protruding from the connecting portion along a spout axis and ending with a mouth. The tube has a gripping section having a guide ring. Connection means connect the closure to the spout even when the closure is unscrewed. The connection means have a collar inserted on the gripping section of the spout and axially bound thereto by the guide ring, and an at least partially flexible tie that joins the collar to the closure.

A cap assembly for a container, including a base having a handle and configured to be removably coupled to the container, a drink spout extending away from the base, a closure configured to selectively transition between a closed configuration, in which the closure is engaged with the drink spout and obstructs a passage through the drink spout, and an open configuration, in which the closure is not engaged with the drink spout and does not obstruct the passage through the drink spout, a tether coupling the closure to the base, a first portion of the tether extending around the drink spout and a second portion of the tether extending around the closure, and a magnetic closure retention mechanism configured to retain the closure in an open configuration.

A vented transfer lid includes an inner collar projecting from a top panel of the transfer lid and having an outer circumferential surface having a texturized electrical discharge machining (EDM) surface finish. In some example forms, an interior surface of the top panel includes a texturized EDM surface finish. In example forms, the transfer lid includes a transfer port wherein at least a portion of an interior surface of the transfer port includes a texturized EDM surface finish. In other embodiments, at least a portion of the vented transfer lid comprises a nonpolar boundary such that fluids exposed to the nonpolar boundary bead and form droplets having a dimension rendering them incapable of passing through one or more vent paths.

A cap assembly for a container, including a base defining a base plane, a drink spout separate from the base and extending away from the base, a closure configured to selectively transition between a closed configuration, in which the closure is engaged with the drink spout and obstructs a passage through the drink spout, and an open configuration, in which the closure is not engaged with the drink spout and does not obstruct the passage through the drink spout, and a closure retention mechanism configured to retain the closure in any one of a plurality of stowed positions against the base.

Cap assemblies with magnetic closure retention mechanisms and drink containers including the same. A cap assembly includes a base, a drink spout defining a passage, a closure configured to be selectively transitioned between a closed configuration and a stowed configuration via an open configuration, and a magnetic closure retention mechanism to magnetically retain the closure in the stowed configuration. When the closure is in the closed configuration, the closure is operatively coupled to the drink spout and obstructs the flow of liquid therethrough. When the closure is in the open configuration or the stowed configuration, the drink spout is uncovered and unobstructed by the closure. When the closure is in the stowed configuration, the closure is magnetically retained against the base or a handle of the cap assembly.

A cap for a drinking vessel, and particularly a shaker cup. The claimed cap can be securely attached to the drinking vessel or shaker cup to avoid leaks, and also includes a sealable opening through which the contents of the drinking vessel can be poured or drunk and a handle that is convenient for a user and which is attached to the cap in such a manner that the handle moves somewhat freely relative to the cap and the mechanism for closing the opening in the cap. Any non-integral components that come into contact with the contents of the vessel are easily detachable to facilitate thorough cleaning.
