  • Patent number: 4193519
    Abstract: A body and cap connected by a hinge are integrally molded from plastic. The body is adapted to be connected to a container and has a dispensing spout which may be centered or offset. At the distal end of the spout is a tubular portion surrounded by a channel. Capillary bores extend generally parallel to the axis of the spout from the base of the channel to an interior in the spout. Adjacent the distal end of the spout is a spherical bulge. The cap has an internal opening complementary to this bulge so that the cap fits sealingly thereabout. The body and cap have annular exterior walls which meet in a plane inclined at about fifteen degrees to the horizontal (when the top of the container to which the body is secured is horizontal). Several forms of hinges and components biasing the cap are disclosed.
