Abstract

A dispensing tip assembly includes a foodstuff additive dispenser for a pressurized foodstuff container. A tip body of the dispensing tip assembly may have low pressure zone in which fluid pressure is lower than fluid pressure upstream of the low pressure zone as flowable foodstuff from the foodstuff container flows through the internal flow passage toward an open downstream end of the tip body. The dispenser tip assembly may include one or more of duckbill valves tethered to one another, and/or a plurality of injection ports and/or structure for one-direction dispensing, and/or internal fins to couple to an actuator of the foodstuff container, and/or an anti-rotation device, and/or a collar for attaching a bulb or pod of the tip body, and/or an ergonomic and functional bulb.

Abstract

A pressure gauge for an aerosol container includes a scale attached to the container body and a pointer associated with and movable relative to the scale. The pointer is operatively coupled to a valve assembly of the aerosol container. The pointer moves relative to the scale in response to movement of at least a portion of the valve assembly due to internal pressure in the container body to provide a reading.

Abstract

A hold-open device (18) for a container-in-container dispenser (10) has an elongate body that is flexible along its length. The elongate body defines a longitudinal internal passage extending along its length and through first and second longitudinal ends of the elongate body. The elongate body defines a plurality of longitudinal external channels (40) extending along the length of the elongate body and through the first and second longitudinal ends of the elongate body. The hold-open device (18) is to be received in an inner container (14) of the container-in-container dispenser.

Abstract

A barrier package aerosol container includes a can, valve, and piston disposed in the interior volume of the can. The piston is movable toward a top end of the can to facilitate dispensing of flowable material in the can. Opposing surfaces of the piston and the can and the valve define an interstitial space of the interior volume in which the flowable product is receivable. The piston is contacts at least one of the interior surface of the can at its top end and the valve, to define a piston interface when the piston is at the top end of the can during use. At least one of the piston, the can, and the valve defines one or more flow passages at the piston interface to allow flowable material in the interstitial space to flow through the piston interface toward the valve inlet during use.

A valve assembly for an aerosol can comprises a valve conduit having an inlet, an outlet, a valve seat in the flow path between the inlet and the outlet, and a resilient mounting of a valve member that permits relative movement of the valve member relative to the valve conduit. The valve member further comprises a valve element that is movable to sealingly engaging the valve seat, and a stem projecting from the valve member through the outlet of the valve conduit. During the movement of the valve member relative to the valve conduit, the movable tapered sealing surface associated with the valve member is configured to engage and concentrically align with a tapered valve seat on the valve conduit to establish an effective seal against the valve seat.

Abstract

The inventive dispenser comprises a cap and dispenser tube assembly for delivering a foamed product below the surface of a liquid through the dispenser tube. The dispenser tube pivots between a dispensing position and a non-dispensing stowed position, which allows for convenient cleaning of the dispensing tube. The cap further comprises a removable portion between a first and second section of the cap that restricts movement to prevent operation of the dispensing valve until the removable portion is detached by the consumer. The cap also includes a tamper resistant removable pull tab for securing the dispenser tube in the stowed position until the pull tab is detached by the consumer.
