Abstract: System for dispensing a liquid to a user, comprising: a container, a liquid, a dispenser, arranged to receive and hold the container in a dispensing position, and comprising a control unit user, a valve connected to the container, and connected to the control unit to selectively release or stop a flow of the liquid out of the container, characterized in that: upon releasing at least a part of the liquid, the container is deformable, the valve releasing a flow of the liquid out of the container, and upon releasing at least another part of the liquid, the valve releases a flow of liquid out of the container, and allows a flow of gas into the container.

Abstract: A method for analysing a device for spraying a pharmaceutical fluid product including the following steps: providing a spray head of a device for spraying a pharmaceutical fluid product, the spray head having a spray orifice; providing a receiving surface having a plurality of discrete contact zones separated by voids, the contact zones capable of being coated with a heat sensitive material, bringing the receiving surface to a temperature T2, passing a flow of compressed gas through the spray orifice, the flow of compressed gas at a temperature T1 which differs from T2, sending the flow of compressed gas at temperature T1 onto the receiving surface at temperature T2, visualising the impact zone for the flow of compressed gas on the receiving surface, and analysing the visualisation of the impact zone in order to determine whether the spray head complies with predetermined specifications.

Abstract: A blow moulded plastic bottle includes a neck, a shoulder, a tubular body portion, and an integral bottom structure including: a terminal curved portion, an internal axially inwardly directed dome, and an (annular) base joining the terminal curved portion to the dome; wherein: a spline comprises a flat part in the base plane (Pb) onto the bottle rests when it stands up; the height (h1) between (Pb) and the apex of the dome, the height (h2) between (Pb) and the spline diametral median plane (Pd) which is in the middle of the spline (17) and which is parallel to (Pb), and the maximum external diameter (Dm) of the tubular body portion, being so that [(h1)/(Dm)]*100 is comprised between 14.0 and 16.0% and (h1)<(h2)?3.5(h1).

Abstract: A drink-through spout cap for a beverage bottle having a body and a neck, a set of a cover and such a drink-through spout cap, a drinking device including a beverage bottle and a set, and methods of manufacturing or preparing a drinking device. The drink-through spout cap (10) has a top wall (32) and a sidewall (34) extending therefrom, the top wall (32) being provided with a spout (36) having an aperture (38) formed therein. The sidewall (34) has an inner surface (34A) and an outer surface (34B), the inner surface (34A) being provided with a threaded region (40) adapted to engage the threaded region (42) of the bottle (12). A lip (44) extends from the top wall (32) and has a lip height which is smaller than half of the sidewall length.

Abstract: Closure system for a container including a cap and a ring adapted to engage by screwing in order to seal the opening, the cap including an upper wall from which in a downwards direction there extends an annular skirt that has a lower annular end and a radially inner surface fitted with a thread. The ring has an annular top rim, an annular collar and a thread complementary to the thread of the cap provided between the collar and the rim of the ring. The skirt of the cap includes a projecting annular member forming a barrier and adapted to be supported against the whole periphery of the collar of the ring in a substantially radial direction.
