  • Patent number: 6745919
    Abstract: An article of manufacture comprises a) a squeezable bottle having an outlet, b) a plug in the bottle, the plug comprising an upper surface with a protruding nipple having a neck, and a top and an orifice communicating with a smooth tubular channel sized to permit a semi-solid formulation to be squeezed out of the bottle and through the channel and orifice without dislodging the cap, the neck of the nipple having a protruding height slightly greater than the thickness of a spoon, and the neck of the nipple and the flat upper surface forming a notch which engages with the edge of a spoon, the orifice forming a sharp intersection with the top of the nipple sufficient to cut flow of the formulation cleanly when pressure ceases, and the junction of the top of the nipple with the nipple neck having a bevel, and c) a child resistant cap to cover the orifice when the formulation is not in use, the cap sealing the orifice without abrading the nipple.
