  • Patent number: 6206251
    Abstract: A valve apparatus utilizes a biased flap and air hole to regulate the flow of a fluid from the orifice of a container. The biased flap progressively opens in response to increasing fluid pressure upon the flap. An additional air hole is preferably used to permit air to continuously enter the container while fluid is discharged. A substantially smoother pouring response is achieved.
