Patent number: 11365036Abstract: A closure assembly for a container comprising a pressurised tank and a plug member, the pressurised tank has an interior volume and a cylindrical wall including an annular boss member at its open end. The plug member has an annular channel arranged at a first side of the plug member adapted to sealingly engage with the boss member. The channel has at least one orifice extending from the floor or outer side wall of the channel to a nozzle at the second side of the plug member. The orifice is sealed from the interior volume of the tank when the channel is sealingly engaged with the boss member in a first position, but is in fluid communication with the interior volume of the tank when at least part of the channel is no longer engaged with the boss member in a second position.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2017Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: Gizmo Packaging LimitedInventor: Jordan Maguire

Patent number: 11198547Abstract: A closure device for use with a container having a container neck comprises a cap member having a first fluid chamber and a housing having a second fluid chamber. The housing is arranged to move relative to the cap member between a first armed position and a second firing position. The housing includes a first plug member adapted to close a bottom aperture in the first fluid chamber in the first armed position. The cap member includes a second plug member adapted to close a bottom aperture in the second fluid chamber in the first armed position. In the second firing position the first plug member is removed from the aperture in the first fluid chamber and the second plug member is removed from the aperture in the second fluid chamber.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2017Date of Patent: December 14, 2021Assignee: Gizmo Packaging LimitedInventors: Jordan Maguire, Bernard Derek Frutin

Patent number: 11104506Abstract: A pressure pack dispenser (100) for dispensing a product comprises a cylindrical container (401) with a product outlet through which the product is dispensed, a composite piston (408) movably mounted within the container, and a pressurised propellant. The composite piston comprises a first upper piston (409A) coupled to a second lower piston (409B) to permit limited relative axial movement and a viscous sealant material (410) located between the first and second pistons. The propellant comprises a compressed gas which remains in the gaseous phase as the piston (408) moves from a first full position to a second exhausted position, or a mixture of a liquid propellant and a compressed gas selected such that in the full position the mixture is at a pressure greater than the vapour pressure of the liquid propellant. A clearance is provided between the second lower piston (409B) and the container wall (401A) which is filled with the sealant (410) as the composite piston moves to expel product.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2018Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: Rocep Lusol Holdings Ltd.Inventors: Jordan Maguire, Bernard Frutin

Patent number: 11001425Abstract: A closure device for firing an additive into a carbonated beverage bottle with a neck comprises a cap member and a housing. The cap member includes a pressurised tank containing the additive and a propellant and has a bottom aperture. The housing engages with the neck and includes a plug member which engages with the bottom aperture. The cap member can be lifted relative to the housing from a first armed or closed position in which the plug member closes the bottom aperture to a second firing position in which the plug member provides a communication path from the tank through a nozzle in the plug member.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2018Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Gizmo Packaging LimitedInventors: Jordan Maguire, Bernard Frutin
