Abstract: A container for a cryosurgery device which includes a cryogen bottle. The container includes a container body including an internal space sufficiently large to hold the cryogen bottle; a valve actuation assembly mechanically coupled to the container body, the valve actuation assembly configured to actuate a valve on the cryogen bottle; and a reservoir positioned relative to the valve actuation assembly so that the reservoir receives cryogen from the cryogen bottle when the valve on the cryogen bottle is actuated using the valve actuation assembly.

Abstract: A dispensing package includes a container having a neck finish with an axis, a non-circular cross section in a plane perpendicular to the axis, and at least one circumferentially extending external engagement element on the neck finish. A closure has a wall received over the container neck finish. The wall has a non-circular cross section corresponding to the non-circular cross section of the neck finish and at least one internal circumferentially extending engagement element in engagement with the external engagement element on the neck finish. The internal and/or external circumferentially extending engagement element has a shallow lead-in angle to enable press-fit of the closure onto the container neck finish and a steep back angle to retard removal of the closure from the neck finish. Rotation of the closure on the neck finish is prevented by the non-circular cross sections of the neck finish and the closure wall.

Abstract: A child-resistant closure includes a base, and a lid integrally molded and coupled to the base by a hinge. The lid has a latch arm resiliently extending from a periphery opposite the hinge and having oppositely extending tabs adjacent to a free end of the latch arm. The base has an external recess for receiving the latch arm and spaced ledges in the recess for engagement by the tabs to lock the lid in a closed position. The latch arm is engageable by a user to pivot the latch arm radially inwardly within the passage and release the tabs from the ledges so the lid can be pivoted toward an open position. The tabs and the ledges are recessed radially inwardly from the outer surface of the latch arm in the closed position of the lid with the tabs engaged beneath the ledges.

Abstract: A child-resistant compact for dispensing product on blister cards including a first portion having a first cover hinged to a first clamp, a second portion having a second cover hinged to a second clamp, and means connecting the first and second clamp to each other, both to clamp at least one blister card between the clamps and to position the first and second covers to form a closable cavity for enclosing the at least one blister card. Also, a first child-resistant latch includes a first latch arm extending from one of the first and second covers remote from the clamps and a corresponding first latch engagement feature on the other of the first and second covers for engagement with the first latch arm.

Abstract: A child-resistant dispensing closure includes a base having a deck with a dispensing opening and a peripheral skirt. A lid is integrally molded with the base and coupled by a hinge to a periphery of the base so as to be pivotable between closed and open positions. One of the base and the lid has a latch arm resiliently extending from its periphery diametrically opposite the hinge. The latch arm has a pair of oppositely extending tabs adjacent to a free end of the arm. The other of the base and the lid has an axial passage for receiving the latch arm, and a pair of laterally spaced ledges in the passage for engagement by the tabs to lock the lid in the closed position. The latch arm is directly manually engageable by a user from a radial direction external to the closure to pivot the latch arm radially inwardly within the passage and release the tabs from the ledges so that the lid can be pivoted to the open position.

Abstract: A trigger sprayer includes a sprayer body having a barrel with an internal passage, and a nozzle mounted over an open end of the barrel for rotation between dispensing and non-dispensing positions. The nozzle has a plug that is received in the open end of the barrel passage. The plug has laterally opening windows positioned for selective registry with an internal axial slot in the wall of the barrel passage adjacent to the open end of the barrel. The windows in the plug connect with fluid outlets in the nozzle. The nozzle is rotatable around the end of the barrel selectively for bringing the windows into registry with the slot in the barrel to dispense fluid from the end of the nozzle.

The latch arm is directly manually engageable by a user from a radial direction external to the closure to pivot the latch arm radially inwardly within the passage and release the tabs from the ledges so that the lid can be pivoted to the open position.

Abstract: This pump body is mounted on a container and has a forward manually operated pump and a rearward vertical container fill conduit. In the filling process, the container is filled through the conduit, and a closure is then applied to the top of the conduit. The closure may be part of the pump body housing. Multiple containers with their pump bodies may be filled simultaneously.

Abstract: The invention is a trigger sprayer comprising a tubular nozzle bushing and a nozzle cap rotatable on the bushing. The nozzle cap has an end wall with a first swirl chamber formed on the rear face thereof offset from the axis. Passages to a second chamber are diametrically opposite the first chamber. Both chambers have orifices directed out the front of the cap. The first orifices is surrounded by a foaming sleeve. The second orifice is positioned forward of the first orifice so that the spray cone emanating from the second orifice does not hit the foaming sleeve. The cap can be rotated to connect liquid from the delivery tube to the swirl chamber for one or the other orifices.

Abstract: The end of the arm on the pivoted trigger of a pump dispenser brushes against a projection on the wider end of a funnel-shaped seal to distort the wider end, breaking its seal against the inside of a tubular support for the pump dispenser and opening a vent to the atmosphere.

Abstract: This pump dispenser has a downward tubular support providing a lead-in for a resilient closure. The closure is formed with an upwardly facing inward lead-in chamfer and spaced deep arcuate recesses in the top surface so that the wall between the recesses and the inner diameter is outwardly resilient to permit an attachment flange to stretch the wall outward and permit snap passage of the attachment flange. In this manner the closure is permanently attached to the pump body without the need for welding or separate attaching parts.

Abstract: A piston/nozzle unit retainer and stop comprises inward fingers in the cylinder slots receiving the trigger trunions which drive the unit.

Abstract: This articulated trigger/cover unit for a pump dispenser is formed with retainers on proximate relatively moveable walls to hold parts in stable configuration for handling by automatic assembly equipment.
