  • Patent number: 4805814
    Abstract: A container for liquids comprises a bottle having a continuous peripheral wall, a spout and an auxiliary mounting portion. The spout is threaded, in the preferred embodiment, so that a threaded cap or dispensing apparatus may be removably engaged thereon. The auxiliary mounting portion includes a pad on the top wall of the bottle having a mounting boss projecting from the pad. The mounting boss is threaded or serrated so that either the threaded cap or the dispensing apparatus can be removably engaged on the mounting boss when the other of the cap or dispensing apparatus is mounted on the bottle spout. The dispensing apparatus can comprise a spray head having a siphon tube that is detachable from the spray head. The bottle can be provided with a generally vertical groove in the peripheral wall of the bottle. The groove is sized to accommodate the siphon tube when the spray head is mounted on the mounting boss of the auxiliary mounting portion.
