Abstract: A container assembly includes a container having a neck, a cap removably coupled to the neck, and a spout disposed in the neck. The cap includes an upper cap portion and a skirt configured to be received on a rim of the neck. The skirt includes a skirt sidewall and a skirt flange extending radially between a sidewall of the upper cap and the skirt sidewall. The spout includes a central duct extending through an opening of the neck and defining a pouring passage in communication with an interior of the container. The spout includes an outer sidewall extending around the central duct. The spout includes a seal ring disposed on an upper end of the outer sidewall of the spout. A bottom surface of the skirt flange is inclined downward in a direction toward the neck of the container at an angle between about 1° and about 10°.

Abstract: A container assembly includes a container having a neck defining an opening into the container and a spout disposed in the neck of the container. The spout includes an outer sidewall defining an interior of the spout. The spout includes a flange projecting radially outward from the outer sidewall. The spout includes a plurality of spout teeth extending from a bottom surface of the flange and disposed around a perimeter of the outer sidewall. The neck of the container includes a plurality of neck teeth disposed along an interior surface of the neck and coupled with the spout teeth.

Abstract: A cap includes an upper cap portion to enclose an opening of a bottle and hold a dosage of fluid, a lower cap portion to extend into the bottle and increase the dosage capacity of the cap, and a skirt configured to engage the exterior surface of the bottle to secure the cap to the bottle. The upper cap portion includes a top and a first sidewall having one or more sections that protrude radially away from other portions of first sidewall.
