Abstract: A sealed delivery system for dispensing metered volumes of a pure or sterile flowable substance is presented. In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a hand-held sealed delivery system comprises a continuously sealing one-way valve assembly at a distal end, and a volume reducing reservoir at a proximal end. The pure or sterile flowable substance can be stored in the volume reducing reservoir. In operation, a user pushes down upon a push button driven actuator assembly, acting upon a metering pumping chamber, which is in fluid communication with the pure or sterile flowable substance stored in the volume reducing reservoir via a check valve. Depression of the push button driven actuator causes a dispensing pump to push a metered volume of flowable substance through the continuously sealing one way dispensing valve assembly.

Abstract: A sealed delivery system for dispensing metered volumes of a pure or sterile flowable substance is presented. Such system comprises a continuously sealing one-way valve assembly at a distal end, and a volume reducing reservoir at a proximal end, in which a pure or sterile flowable substance can be stored. In operation a user pushes down upon an actuator assembly, acting upon a metering pumping chamber in fluid communication with the reservoir via a check valve. Depression of the actuator causes a dispensing pump to push a metered volume of flowable substance through the continuously sealing one way dispensing valve assembly, and return of the actuator to its home state causes the dispensing pump to pull a metered volume of the contained flowable substance from the volume reducing reservoir and through the check valve.

Abstract: A one way valve assembly flows a sterile flowable substance from a source to an outlet orifice and prevents any backflow of contaminants through the one way valve assembly when the flowable substance ceases to flow. The valve assembly includes an elastomeric membrane which aids in preventing any backflow of contaminants when dispensing of the flowable substance is stopped.

Abstract: A reusable continuously sealing one-way valve assembly and delivery system flows a sterile flowable substance from a source to an outlet orifice and prevents any backflow of contaminants through the continuously sealing one way valve assembly when the flowable substance ceases to flow. The valve assembly includes an elastomeric membrane which aids in preventing any backflow of contaminants when dispensing of the flowable substance is stopped. Multiple dosing of preservative-free flowable substance is provided.

Abstract: A reusable continuously sealing metered dosing one-way valve assembly and delivery system flows a premeasured amount of a sterile flowable substance from a source which is coupled to an actuator assembly to an outlet orifice and prevents any backflow of contaminants through the continuously sealing one way valve assembly when the flowable substance ceases to flow. The valve assembly includes an elastomeric membrane which aids in preventing any backflow of contaminants when dispensing of the flowable substance is stopped.

Abstract: A golf club includes a sharp edge at the intersection of the bottom or heel surface of the club head and the front face of the club head, allowing the club to be easily swung through obstacles such as those usually encountered in the area of the golf course commonly known as “the rough”. The heel or bottom of the golf club head has a substantially flat surface, stabilizing the golf club during the swing. The sharp edge is formed at the intersection of the face and the bottom and does not include a blade or extension and does not extend from the plane of the face or the heel.

Abstract: An enclosing sleeve for a one-way valve presses an elastomeric sheath against the valve body to provide a seal between the sheath and the valve body. In addition, the sleeve can form a closure over the outlet end of the valve body protecting it from contamination or contact with contaminating surfaces.

Abstract: A collapsible container for dispensing a flowable substance includes a pair of generally rigid walls interconnected by bellows-like walls and a web. The container can be arranged in the expanded condition with the rigid wall spaced apart from one another and in the collapsible condition with the rigid walls disposed in generally parallel relation forming a flattened unit. The rigid walls provide an effective labelling surface for the container.
