FOOD AND CONDIMENT CONTAINER
A condiment distribution apparatus is provided. The apparatus may include a condiment delivery fitment including a condiment delivery base comprising two curved exterior surfaces formed adjacent to a flat top surface, a curved condiment delivery tube having a remote end and a near end, the near end affixed to the flat top surface of the condiment delivery base, and product valve distribution means positioned within the condiment delivery base and attached to the curved condiment delivery tube enabling rotation of the curved condiment delivery tube relative to the condiment delivery base, wherein rotation of the product valve distribution means selectively inhibits or enables condiment product delivery via the curved condiment delivery tube.
Urinary catheter caddy and dispenser
A urinary catheter caddy for storing a plurality of packages of urinary catheters and for holding a selected one of the plurality of packages for dispensing of the urinary catheter therefrom includes a caddy body forming a storage space sized to receive and hold a plurality of packages of urinary catheters. An access opening extends from outside the caddy body into the storage space so a user can select one of the urinary catheter packages and pull an openable end of the selected package through the access opening with the opposite end of the package remaining in the storage space. The package is opened to expose a portion of the urinary catheter and an opened portion of the package is held by a package material holder so the catheter can be pulled by the exposed portion from the opened package without contaminating the catheter.
CONTAINER SYSTEM AND USE THEREOF
The container system (1) comprises a container (3), a dispensing device (2) and a closure (4a), wherein the container (3) has a longitudinal axis (L), wherein the container (3) and the dispensing device (2) are connected to one another and are mutually rotatably movable about the longitudinal axis (L), wherein the container (3) and the dispensing device (2) enclose a common interior space the common interior space (6) being delimited in the direction of the longitudinal axis (L) by an end face (3a) of the container and by an end wall of the dispensing device (2), the dispensing device (2) having, in the region of the end wall, a removal opening (2a) which is arranged laterally with respect to the longitudinal axis (L) which extends in the circumferential direction with respect to the longitudinal axis (L), wherein the closure (4a) is coupled to the container (3), and wherein the closure (4a) is arranged in the dispensing device (2) in such a manner that upon a mutual rotation of the container (3) and the dispensing device (2) about the longitudinal axis (L), the closure (4a) is rotatably movable about the longitudinal axis (L) with respect to the removal opening (2a) and, depending on its position, assumes a closed position in which the closure (4a) closes the removal opening (2a) and an open position in which the removal opening (2a) is completely open
Liquid-dispensing container with multiple-position selector
A liquid-dispensing container may include a vessel, lid body, valve assembly, selector and/or straw. The selector may be movable between a first position that allows fluid disposed within the container to be discharged through a straw, and a second position that allows fluid within the container to be discharged by inverting and/or squeezing the container. The selector may be movable into a closed position that restricts fluid from being discharged from the container. The selector may be movable into a detachment position that allows for detachment of the selector from a remainder of the container, disassembly of the valve assembly, or both.
Drinking vessel with selectable drinking mode
A drinking vessel with selectable modes includes a lid, a straw, and a container. The lid extends over an upper opening of the container. The lid includes a lid upper portion and a lid base. The lid upper portion defines a drinking passage therethrough, the drinking passage disposed at an upper rim of the lid upper portion. The lid base defines a first fluid passage therethrough and a second fluid passage therethrough. The straw is coupled to a bottom side of the second fluid passage. The lid upper portion is rotatable through at least three positions relative to the lid base. In the first position the drinking passage does not align with either the first fluid passage or the second fluid passage. In the second position the drinking passage aligns with the first fluid passage. In the third position the drinking passage aligns with the second fluid passage.
Stabilized valve with guide
A valve includes a longitudinally movable valve body that is arranged in the valve, wherein the valve housing has at least two guide grooves, with which auxiliary guide elements, arranged on the valve body, engage an exterior surface of the valve housing. The guide grooves of the valve housing are shaped such that they define a combined translatory and rotary movement path of the valve body with the aid of the auxiliary guide elements in order to open or close the valve.
PLASTIC TUBE DESIGNED FOR PRESSING OUT A LIQUID TO PASTY MASS
A plastic tube designed for pressing out a liquid to pasty mass, comprising a discharge opening, a supply space designed to be compressed, and a tube neck, which connects the supply space to the discharge opening, wherein a mass line having a line cross-section through which mass can flow extends through the tube neck, which cannot be used to press out the mass by means of a manual force of a user. In order to design a plastic tube of the type in question in an improved manner in such a way that a residual amount of mass remaining in the tube neck is minimized after the mass has been pressed out of the supply space, the tube neck is designed, with regard to a free space that can be filled with mass as mass is pressed out, in such a way that a volume of the mass located in the tube neck during the pressing out corresponds to a third or less of a volume that is given by the dimensions of the tube neck.
Bottle Cap Restrictor
A system and method for restricting and controlling the flow rate of liquid from a bottle. The bottle is coupled to a cap. The cap has at least one opening which allows the flow of liquid from the inside of the bottle to the outside of the bottle. This allows the flow rate from the bottle to be controlled to allow and object to be properly cleaned, sanitized, etc. by the flow of liquid.
Multi-Function Lid Assembly and Method of Use
A multi-function lid assembly may have a slideable barrier that when opened by moving the slideable barrier substantially parallel to the lower edge of the multi-function lid assembly exposes a port.
Fluid Dispensing Closure Device for a Fluid Container
A fluid dispensing closure device for a bottle has an outer member with a collar portion sized to thread externally onto the neck and an inner sleeve disposed within the collar portion to be received within the opening in the neck of the bottle, and an annular surface extending radially between a top end of the inner sleeve and the collar portion to seal against the top of the neck. A valve member is movably axially relative to a valve seat on the inner sleeve. An actuator member includes an externally accessible external portion rotatable relative to the outer member by an operator and an internal portion connected with the valve member such that rotation of the actuator member drives axial displacement of the valve member between open and closed positions. The device fits within the dimensions of convention bottle caps.
