Abstract

A bottle orienting system and device includes a hook configured to engage an open end of a container and rotate to move the container into an open end trailing configuration. A biasing element is provided to limit rotation of the hook and to rapidly return the hook to a start position to properly orient a second bottle. In embodiments, different shapes may be used for the hook. In embodiments, the hook may be mounted without rotation.

Abstract

A bottle orienting device for orienting bottles including a neck with an opening on one end thereof in accordance with an embodiment of the present application includes a first belt operable to advance a bottle in a first direction, a stationary kicker extending upward relative to a lower surface of the bottle as it moves in the first direction and positioned in a path of travel of the bottle such that the bottle will rotate around the kicker as it passes the kicker, and a rotation deflector positioned above the kicker and upstream from the kicker, the rotation deflector positioned such that it prevents rotation of the bottle when desired.

Abstract

A system for aligning items, such as bottles, includes a rotating plate and a diverter arm that extends outward over a top surface of the plate towards the plate edge. A rotating channel may surround the plate. In operation, bottles are dropped onto the plate and rotated by the plate against the arm. The distance between the top surface of the arm and the plate surface is such that the arm generally diverts the bottles outward and guides them into free gaps within the channel. The distance is also configured such that as bottles back-up, waiting for free channel gaps, the arm allows any buckling bottles to pass over and back onto the plate, rather than into the channel. The distance may also be configured such that the arm acts like a scoop. As bottles back-up behind the arm, the arm presses under the bottles along the arm and passes them over, relieving the pressure.

DISPENSER ASSEMBLY

Abstract


The dispenser assembly includes a container having a
mat-ing arrangement; at least one container passageway mounted on the inner
surface of the side wall of the container and extending from the open top of
the container to a position proximate to the bottom of the container; and a
pump cap having a cap body, a pump mechanism arranged within the cap
body, a pump cap passageway coupled to the pump mechanism, and a
cou-pling arrangement arranged on the pump cap body and configured to
detach-ably couple to the mating arrangement of the container such that the
container
passageway aligns and scalingly engages the pump cap passageway in fluid
connection when the pump cap is mounted to the container. In result, the
dispenser permits a fluid arranged within the container to flow through the
container passageway and the pump cap passageway when the pump
mech-anism of the pump cap is activated.
