Abstract:
An ingredient release spout. The ingredient release spout may include a cap, an ingredient capsule separate from the cap, a capsule nest with the ingredient capsule therein, and a base. The capsule nest and the ingredient capsule being separate such that the capsule nest is engageable with the cap.
Abstract:
The plastic closure consists of a rotating cap (1) with a sectoral pouring hole and with a slide (2) guided on its under side in such a way as to be capable of being displaced in a translational manner in relation to the pouring hole. The slide exhibits a downward-projecting cam on its under side. Lying beneath the slide (2) is a gate cap (3). Also present in its cover (6) is a sectoral pouring hole and behind it additionally a groove as a gate guide for the cam on the slide (2). The gate cap (3) is installed in a stationary manner on a bottle neck or a container spout. If the rotating cap (1) is caused to rotate relative to the gate cap (3), the cam of the slide will be guided along the gate guide and will pull the slide (2) into the open position, whereas rotation in the opposite direction will cause the slide (2) to be displaced back into the closed position.
Abstract:
The fillable closure with a triggering pushbutton comprises a filler neck (3) that is to be screwed onto or joined to a container neck (4) as well as a closure cap (1) which is associated to the filler neck (3) and can be joined, pivoted and snapped-on the filler neck (3) by means of a hinge connection. A separately fillable container (2) can be inserted into the filler neck (3), the container being closed at the bottom with a sealing foil (19) that can be pierced or cut open. The closure cap (1) comprises a cap cover as a pusher disc (7), which can be pressed downward in the axial direction while deforming. By pressing the cap cover downward on the container (2) inserted in the filler neck or on a rigid opening element accommodated therein, the opening element can be pressed downward so that the sealing foil (19) of the container (2) can be pierced and cut open.
Abstract:
The closure is used for the metered addition of a liquid substance packaged separately in this closure in an aseptic manner into a container (26) equipped therewith, which comprises an outgasing liquid. The closure comprises a connector sleeve (1) and a rotary cap (2) fitting thereon from above in an air-tight manner, wherein the connector sleeve (1) forms a cup (7) that fits in the connector (5) of the container to be equipped. In the cup, a liquid substance is accommodated, enclosed in oxygen-tight capsules (17). The cup bottom (8) has an opening (9), which is dimensioned such that when the pressure is the same above and below the opening, the aseptically packaged liquid substance does not flow through the opening (9). In the closed position of the rotary cap (2), the opening (9) is sealingly closed by an arbor (16) on the bottom of the rotary cap (2), wherein the opening (9) can be opened by loosening the rotary cap (2) from the arbor (16), whereby the remaining seal between the rotary cap (2) and connector sleeve (1) is maintained. After further rotating the rotary cap (2), the connector sleeve (1) is entrained by the same and unscrewed from the container connector (5). In this way, pressure equalization takes place between the container inside and ambient air, and as a result the liquid substance flows out through the opening (9) into the container (26).
Abstract:
A spout for an associated container for dispensing a substance into the container. The spout may include a cap, a capsule that can be filled and sealed with a sealing layer, and a nozzle that can be screwed onto the container and carries a piercing device protruding therein such that the sealing layer of the capsule is pierced by the piercing device upon the turning of the cap.
Abstract:
A guarantee closure having a closure body with a guarantee foil and a pour-out spout as well as a closure cap fitting onto the closure body. The pour-out spout is arranged on the closure body such that it may be pivoted up. The guarantee foil, by pivoting-up the pour-out spout into the pour-out position, is cut open and thus frees the passage to the pour-out spout. The closure body comprises a relief for receiving the guarantee foil and forms above the relief, by two shoulders arranged over one another and distanced from one another, a free space for receiving the lying pour-out spout. This is enclosed and held by a film-hinge material bridge which in the lying condition connects the two shoulders with a surface which seen from the outside is concave and on the upper side of the lying pour-out spout runs together to a point which defines the pivoting axis of the pour-out spout. On pivoting up the pour-out spout the film-hinge material bridge snaps into a permanent shape which is convex when viewed from the outside and thus holds the pour-out spout in the closure position.
Abstract:
The push-button dispenser for bottles with carbonated beverages as a head (1) which can be screwed onto a bottle and has a lateral pouring channel (15) and a push-button (16) on its upper side. A suction tube (10) projects downwards, this tube being intended to extend down as far as the base of the bottle (20) to be fitted with the dispenser. This suction tube opens out at the top into a valve device in the head (1), this valve device having a regulating means (5) which can be moved axially in relation to the bottle (20) and is biased in the closing direction by a spring (3). In order for the regulating means to be opened, pressure is applied to the push-button (16) from above, and therefore the pressure in the interior of the suction tube (10) is reduced to ambient pressure. This causes liquid to be expelled from the bottle, by way of the internal pressure prevailing in the bottle, out of the lower mouth opening of the suction tube (10) via the pouring channel (15). As a special feature, the suction tube (10) is produced from an elastomeric plastics material and its outer cross section and inner cross section are configured such that, with the internal pressure reduced to ambient pressure, in relation to the increased pressure prevailing from outside, it can have its throughflow cross section narrowed by deformation. This means that, despite the pressure in the bottle gradually decreasing, the amount of liquid which flows out per unit of time is kept more or less constant. The push-button dispenser makes it possible for bottles with carbonated beverages to be, for all practical purposes, completely emptied in an extremely convenient and reliable manner, in the upright or even horizontal position, just at the push of a button.
Abstract:
The push-button dispenser with compressed-gas capsule (7) for bottles (2) consists of a head which can be screwed onto the bottle (2) and have a lateral pouring channel (4), a push-button (15) on its upper side and downwardly projecting suction tube (11). The latter is intended to extend as far as the base of the bottle (2) which is to be fitted with the dispenser, and it opens out at the top into a valve device in the head. This valve device has a regulating means (39) which can be moved axially in relation to the bottle (2) and is biased in the closing direction by a spring (17), and can be opened by manual pressure being applied to the push-button (15) from above. This reduces pressure in the interior of the suction tube (11) to ambient pressure, as a result of which liquid is expelled from the bottle (2), by way of the internal pressure prevailing in the bottle (2), out of the lower mouth opening of the suction tube (11) via the pouring channel (4). As a special feature, the dispenser is configured as a single-piece housing (14) with inner housing (37), which contains all the other elements of the dispenser, or bears the same externally.

A spout for an associated container for dispensing a substance into the container.

Abstract:
The self-opener closure consists of a pour-out spout (2) which may be sealingly assembled onto a composite packaging or onto a container spout or bottle spout to be closed with film material, of an associated rotary cap (1) as well as a self-opener sleeve (3) arranged within the pour-out spout (2) which may be set into rotation by the rotary cap (1). Force transmission means and guide means are formed on these three elements. These cooperate with one another such that on rotating the rotary cap (1) in the opening direction for the first time the self-opener sleeve (3) firstly in the pour-out spout (2) may be pushed vertically downwards and subsequently may be rotated by approximately 360° in the horizontal. Because the self-opener sleeve (3) at its lower edge and projecting from this comprises a single, combined piercing and cutting member (9) the film or the composite packaging is first reliably pierced and afterwards a disk is cut cleanly out of it and pivoted downwards.
