  • Patent number: 11292645
    Abstract: A removable spout seal and pour spout assembly is presented. The removeable spout seal generally comprises a cylindrical attachment member attached to a flange with a channel extending distally perpendicular therefrom. The removeable spout seal is coupled to a pour spout to form the pour spout assembly. In use, the removeable spout seal attaches to the connection member of a pour spout to provide a seal that prevents leaking of liquids from a vessel. The vent tube of the pour spout is inserted into the channel of the spout seal apparatus and the cylindrical attachment member of the spout seal is inserted into the connection member of the pour spout to form a leakproof seal. Use of the spout seal allows shipping a vessel with the pour spout in place thus preventing leaking during shipping; prevents contamination of contents; preserves freshness of contents; and prevents accidental spills and leaking.

  • Publication number: 20220015558
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a customizable pillow apparatus. Typically, the customizable pillow apparatus comprises an outer shell and a support filler assembly contained within the outer shell. The support filler assembly comprises a plurality of support layer components arranged in a first configuration with each support layer component being structured to provide predetermined support characteristics. The support filler assembly is structured to be transformed from a disassembled mode to an assembled mode by rotating a first support layer of the plurality of support layers in a first direction such that the rotated first support layer at least partially overlaps a second support layer to form the first configuration. Moreover, arrangement, ordering, and positioning of the plurality of internal layer components is easily adjustable. The customizable pillow apparatus is configured to be modified into a second configuration from the first configuration to provide targeted support to the user.
