Abstract: A cassette to dispense a pleated tubing having an annular body, an annular cover and a plurality of apertures. The annular body may have a generally U-shaped housing with a central cylindrical core. The annular cover may extend over the annular body and define a gap, while being secured to the body. The plurality of apertures may be radially provided in an angular wall in the annular body.

Abstract: A collar having an open upper end, a closed lower end, and a sidewall. The closed lower end may have a projection extending upward therefrom and at least one passage disposed through the closed lower end to channel a fluid. The sidewall has a tapered shape that extends from the open upper end inward toward the closed lower end and has a support surface provided along an inner surface adjacent to the open upper end. The support surface defines at least one channel. A fastener portion may be provided on the collar.

Abstract: A non-spill container having a collar and seal assembly from which drinking can occur at any location around a rim of the collar and seal assembly. The collar has an open upper end, a closed lower end, and a sidewall. The open upper end is proximate to and includes the upper end of a side wall, an upper perimeter and a rim. The closed lower end has a projection extending upward therefrom and at least one passage disposed through the closed lower end to channel a fluid. The sidewall has a tapered shape that extends from the open upper end inward toward the closed lower end and has a support surface provided along an inner surface adjacent to the open upper end. The support surface has at least one radial protrusion is disposed radially adjacent to the support surface to define at least one channel. A fastener assembly is provided on an external wall of the collar.

Abstract: A cassette for use in dispensing a pleated tubing. The cassette comprises an annular body having a generally U shaped housing with a central cylindrical core. The at least one wall has an upper end with a downturn lip disposed thereon. An annular cover extends radially outward from the central cylindrical core over the annular body defining a gap.
