Abstract: A method and apparatus for blow molding in a single form-fill-seal operation a droplet dispenser bottle which delivers fluid in precise, uniform drops rather than the streamlets produced by similar bottles of earlier design. The method and apparatus is such that the desired amount of fluid is dispensed from the bottle regardless of how hard the bottle is squeezed. Depending on the needs of the packager, the method and apparatus can be made to form the orifice to precisely control droplet size and/or weight. The droplet dispenser bottle can be molded in virtually any shape desired to hold up to approximately two ounces of fluid.

Abstract: A thermoplastic container which is blown, filled and hermetically sealed in a single forming and filling operation. The removable cap integrally formed therewith normally hermetically seals the container and has a peripheral side wall, a horizontal flange portion which merges with the neck portion and an annular groove which is formed in the horizontal flange portion and provides a weakened severing line for removing the cap. A pull tab having a narrow in width, vertically disposed tab flange is integrally connected with the horizontally extending flange portion and has means for gripping the pull tab to pivotally manipulate the pull tab outwardly from the container. The pull tab on being pivotally manipulated causes the horizontally extending flange portion to sever at the annular groove, thereby permitting the cap to be removed from the container.

Abstract: An inexpensive bottle holder that can be removably attached to a bottle such as an intravenous bottle to support the bottle in an inverted position. The bottle holder has a hanger which normally is stored in a cavity formed beneath the top wall of the holder and the bottom of the bottle when the bottle is seated in an upright position, and which is automatically formed and ready for use when the bottle is picked up.
