Abstract: A self-dispensing container of carbonated product comprising a hollow body having a filling aperture, a carbonated product inserted into the hollow body via the filling aperture, leaving a headspace, and a lid adapted to seal the filling aperture after insertion of the carbonated product wherein, after sealing, the headspace fills with CO2 from the carbonated product to equalise the pressure within the container. The container further includes a valve having open and closed positions, wherein the valve communicates between a valve inlet on the inside of the container and a dispensing orifice on the outside of the container, and in use the container is orientated so that the valve inlet is submerged in the carbonated product and when the valve is in its open position, the CO2 in the headspace dispenses the carbonated product through the dispensing orifice.

Abstract: A full aperture beverage end has a center panel, a countersink surrounding the center panel, a main score arranged in proximity to the countersink to define a removable aperture panel and a vent score. The beverage end is adapted for use with products that are pressurized to over 30 psi (200 kPa) when opened, and during opening the vent score is adapted to sever first, controlling the pressure differential between the external surface and internal surface of the center panel, thereby allowing the main score to tear in a controlled and reliable manner.

Abstract: A dispenser head for an aerosol can and a method of assembly of the same, the dispenser head comprising a chassis attached to the associated aerosol can and a spray-through cap attached thereto, the chassis comprising a platform capable of axial movement and a flexible spray channel centrally located thereon.

Abstract: A container end (20) having a dispensing aperture (50) with a closed position, in which the dispensing aperture is sealed, and an open position, in which product may be dispensed through the aperture (50). The end (20) includes a flexible film (70), which has at least one tongue (75) anchored to the end (20) outside the periphery of the aperture (50) and having a free end, which is visible in the dispensing aperture once the aperture is opened. The free end of the tongue (75) is concealed when the aperture (50) is closed, but becomes visible to a user once the aperture (50) is opened.

Abstract: A self-dispensing container of carbonated product comprising a hollow body (10) having a filling aperture, a carbonated product inserted into the hollow body (10) via the filling aperture, leaving a headspace, and a lid (20) adapted to seal the filling aperture after insertion of the carbonated product wherein, after sealing, the headspace fills with CO2 from the carbonated product to equalise the pressure within the container. The container further includes a valve (30) having open and closed positions, wherein the valve (30) communicates between a valve inlet (35) on the inside of the container and a dispensing orifice 60 on the outside of the container, and in use the container is orientated so that the valve inlet 35 is submerged in the carbonated product and when the valve is in its open position, the CO2 in the headspace dispenses the carbonated product through the dispensing orifice (60).

The free end of the tongue (75) is concealed when the aperture (50) is closed, but becomes visible to a user once the aperture (50) is opened. Thus the film tongue (75) provides opportunities for promotional activities e.g. Prize award.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a full aperture beverage end (14) having a centre panel (30), a countersink (22) surrounding the centre panel (30), a main score (50) arranged in proximity to the countersink (22) to define a removeable aperture panel (54) and a vent score (46). The beverage end (14) is adapted for use with products that are pressurised to over 30 psi (207 kPa) when opened, and during opening the vent score (46) is adapted to sever first, controlling the pressure differential between the external surface and internal surface of the centre panel (30), thereby allowing the main score (50) to tear in a controlled and reliable manner.
