  • Patent number: 10173824
    Abstract: The invention relates to a container for packaging products, in particular fresh products such as meat products. The container comprises a container body with a product space for accommodating a product and a receiving space at least for receiving liquid, preferably liquid from the product. The container body according to the invention comprises partition means that separate the product space and the receiving space from each other. The partition means comprise at least one outlet opening configured to at least discharge liquid from the product space to the receiving space. The container is further provided with at least one resistance element extending into the receiving space, which resistance element surrounds the outlet opening in such a manner that the resistance element prevents the transport of liquid from the receiving space to the product space.

  • Patent number: 9650171
    Abstract: A pouring package for a fluid and a pouring element therefor, including a container provided with a pouring opening which is closed by a seal in an unopened condition of the container. The pouring package is provided with a pouring element at the location of the pouring opening, the pouring element including a breaking element configured to act on and break the seal when a pressure is exerted thereon so as to thus effect an opened condition of the container. The pouring element is provided with two pivot arms extending on either side of the breaking element. Each pivot arm is pivotally connected to the breaking element with a first end and to the pouring element with the opposite, second end. The pouring element is provided with a flexible wall portion on a side remote from the pouring opening, wherein the flexible wall portion covers only part of the pouring opening.

  • Patent number: 8302795
    Abstract: Caps for bottles with a box of powder material for preparation of beverages. The cap is applied to a basic box with a basic substance enclosed, as e.g. drinking water. The cap contains the other box with the other liquid or powder substance. The box is closed on the bottom-side with aluminum foil and a slant damper and on an upper side by a cover. The damper may be twisted around a hinge and have on an upper surface a one-arm vertical flexible lever arranged above the aluminum foil. The cover has on an internal plane bottom tangs, as well as a barrier, by which during winding up and winding off the cover acts on the lever. By winding off the cover a free end of the lever is elastically bent, creating in it a moment of force, which twists the damper and breaks through and removes the aluminum foil. Upon finishing mixing substances, the blend may be drank through the opening of the box.
