摘要:
An assembly comprising a container and a closure. The container has a neck, the neck having an interior surface and an exterior surface, the exterior surface having (a) a thread(s), (b) at least two sets of sloping teeth, and (c) a retaining bead. The closure has (a) a top wall; (b) a side wall having an interior surface, an exterior surface, an upper portion, and a lower portion; (c) a thread(s) on the interior surface of the side wall; (d) a tamper-indicating band having an interior surface, an exterior surface, an upper edge, and a lower edge, the upper edge of said tamper indicating band attached to the lower portion of the side wall by a plurality of rupturable bridges; and, in one embodiment, (e) a plurality of tabs attached to the lower edge of the tamper-indicating band, each of the tabs having an exterior surface bearing at least one sloping tooth, each of the tabs being foldable to contact the interior surface of the tamper-indicating band, whereby, when folded, the sloping teeth on the tabs face radially inwardly toward the axis of the side wall, and partially engage with the sloping teeth on the exterior surface of the neck of the container. Subsequent teeth are angularly offset.

An assembly includes a container and a closure. The closure includes a tamper-indicating band having a plurality of sloping teeth. Each of the sloping teeth of the tamper-indicating band has an engagement surface that is engageable with one of the engagement surfaces of the sloping teeth of the container. The sloping teeth on the tamper-indicating band are configured such that when one of the teeth on the tamper-indicating band completely engages one of the teeth on the exterior surface of the neck of the container, the engagement surface of at least one of the other sloping teeth on the tamper-indicating band is free from engagement with the engagement surfaces of the sloping teeth of the container and the engagement surface of at least one of the other sloping teeth of the container is free from engagement with the engagement surfaces of the sloping teeth on the tamper-indicating band.

A bottle packaging includes a groove on the neck of a bottle with the groove spaced longitudinally from a shoulder of the bottle a distance greater than or equal to a width of the groove, and upper and lower portions of the neck may have outer transverse cross-sectional dimensions that are substantially equal to one another. An upper circumferential sidewall of the groove may be chamfered, while a lower circumferential sidewall may be concave. The bottle may be combined with an adapter such that when the adapter is releasably connected to the bottle, a lowermost rim of the adapter is spaced longitudinally from an upper reach of the groove. The adapter may include a detent on an inner surface thereof adapted to removably seat in the groove to releasably connect the adapter to the bottle. A closure member may include at least one of a detent and a sealing member removably seated in the groove.

Retortable high panel strength plastic containers have a recessed circular center portion in the bottom wall of the container which facilitates the volumetric changes in the container during a sterilization process. Examples of containers having this feature are disclosed as well as the cross-sectional profile of the recessed circular center portions of the bottom walls of the containers.
摘要:
A closure for a container is described. The container has an opening through which contents of the container are dispensed and a holding member (255, 285, 295, 305, 315, 316, 317, 340, 350) for cooperating with the closure to retain the closure on the container. A sealing member (220) is configured to sealingly close the container opening. The sealing member includes a retention member (260, 275, 290, 300, 310, 325, 335, 345, 355) engageable with the holding member of the container to retain the sealing member in sealing engagement with the container. A cap member (225) has a top rim and a sidewall depending from the top rim. The sidewall includes an attachment member (160) for attachment to the container and an engagement member (245) that operatively couples the sealing member to the cap member upon placement of the cap member on the container. The cap member is rotatable relative to the container and relative to the sealing member.

The invention comprises a cap member having an annular wall and a top wall disposed within and connected to the annular wall. An arcuate pierce-plow member is disposed on an upper surface of the top wall at a position spaced from the annular wall. The pierce-plow member includes a first plow base member having a ramp portion and a substantially flat portion. The pierce-plow member further includes a piercing member disposed adjacent to the substantially flat portion of the plow base member. The piercing member includes a first portion disposed adjacent to the first plow base member and a second portion disposed at a position spaced from the first plow base member. A thickness of the second portion of the piercing member is greater than a thickness of the first portion of the piercing member.
摘要:
An apparatus is useful for dye marking a liquid enteral nutritional product during delivery thereof from a supply container to a feeding tube delivering the nutritional product to the gastrointestinal tract of a patient. A formulation chamber, such as a drip chamber, is connectable to the supply container. At least one sustained release reservoir containing a physiologically acceptable marker dye is positioned within the formulation chamber, or if not, is included as part of a kit. The sustained release reservoir may be in the form of a coated tablet, osmotically driven device, coated capsule, microencapsulated microspheres, agglomerated molecular sieving material, or chopped hollow fibers having permeable walls. A liquid communication means connects the formulation chamber to the feeding tube of a patient. The marker dye may be a colorant dye or a fluorescing dye or a mixture thereof. In using the apparatus for dye marking the nutritional product is flowed through the apparatus and a feeding tube to enter the gastrointestinal tract of a patient.
