The refill cartridge additionally includes a plug having an upper plug portion defining an upper plug head and a lower plug portion defining a flared end portion. The plug is engageable with the cap and is moveable relative to the cap between a sealing position and a dispensing position.

Abstract: A powder packaging includes space for containing powder, an outlet opening for the powder, and a dosing device positioned on the outlet opening, the powder dosing device including a dosing body having a first closing part, a second closing part and a dosing chamber between the closing parts. The dosing body is movable between a filling position in which the dosing chamber is accessible for powder in the powder containing space and the second closing part closes off the outlet opening, and a dosing position in which the first closing part closes off the outlet opening and the dosing chamber allows powder to leave the dosing chamber and thus to exit the powder containing space.

Abstract: An initially sealed storage apparatus carrying a material is provided. The present invention is directed to a mixing unit comprising a sealed container joined to a second container. When the second container is fully united with the sealed container, a seal in the sealed container is breached and the contents of the first container and the second container can be mixed. The seal is breached by a bushing enclosed within the sealed container or enclosed in a coupler between the sealed container and the second container which is advanced against the seal, and ruptures the seal when the second container is advanced into the coupler of the coupler portion of the sealed container.

Abstract: A chamber dropper bottle is disclosed that is sized to contain medicine. The dropper bottle includes a central recess in a bottom wall of the bottle. The recess is sized to accommodate a single dose of medicine. A central tapered cylindrical dropper chamber extends into the recess, while an annular medicine chamber is positioned about the central tapered cylindrical dropper chamber. The central tapered cylindrical dropper chamber includes one or more apertures sized to allow fluid to flow between the annular medicine chamber, the central tapered cylindrical dropper chamber and the recess.

Abstract: A combination spoon-lid and a cap for a container includes a main container cap and a spoon-lid. The main container cap has a top and at least one sidewall and has a dispensing orifice located on the top. The cap also has a container attachment mechanism for removably attaching the cap to a container, and has a spoon-lid attachment mechanism on the top adapted to receive the spoon-lid and close the dispensing orifice. The spoon-lid has main structure with a first end with a scoop spoon section and has a second end in the form of a handle and has an adjustable gate for increasing and decreasing the volume of the scoop spoon section. The spoon-lid is removably connectable to the attachment mechanism of the main cap to cover and seal the dispensing orifice.

The cap also has a container attachment mechanism for removably attaching the cap to a container, and has a spoon-lid attachment mechanism on the top adapted to receive the spoon-lid and close the dispensing orifice. The spoon-lid has a first end with a dished spoon section and has a second end in the form of a handle, the spoon-lid adapted to removably connect to the attachment mechanism of the main cap to cover and seal dispensing orifice.

Abstract: A dispensing closure has an integral measuring device and spoon applicator. The closure has an internal thread on a skirt for fitting onto a container finish. The closure has a tubular measuring device depending from the base wall within the radial confines of the skirt and ending at a spoon applicator for ease of oral administration.

Abstract: A lid closure for dispensing a confection into a refreshment, such as a milk shake, in a container comprises first and second molded lid parts with the first lid part having a central opening into which the second lid part is removably inserted. A sealing layer with a circular tear line encloses the confection in an annular compartment in the first lid part and is attached to the second lid part at the center of the sealing layer. The second lid part has two pockets for engagement by the thumb and forefinger of a consumer. To dispense the confection into the refreshment, the consumer twists the second lid part to tear the sealing layer along the tear line and removes the second lid part and a portion of the sealing layer from the central opening in the first lid part.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for introducing an additive component (131) in the form of a liquid or granulated solid into a liquid (40) stored in a first container (150). The additive component (131) is stored separately from the liquid (40) in a dip tube or conduit (132). The container (150) has an opening closed by a releasable closure (152). A second container or tank (111) containing pressurized propellant fluid (116) is positioned in the neck or closure of the first container, adjacent to the opening. The dip tube or conduit (132) has a first end communicating with the tank and a second end extending down into the first liquid in the first container. The dip tube (132) contains an additive (131) which is expelled from the dip tube into the first liquid by the entry of the propellant fluid from the tank into the dip tube on release of the releasable closure.

Abstract: A device for maintaining ingredients separately within a container, of the type having a removable container cap applied on a neck with a central opening, has a sub-container body mounted in the container neck which is formed with a proximate end having screw threads which can be engaged with internal screw threads in the container neck for holding them securely together to allow the ingredients to be shaken out of the sub-container body and mixed with fluid in the container. The sub-container body can have inner divider walls forming multiple compartments with respective orifices for dispensing ingredients selectively from the compartments. The sub-container body may be sealed to the underside of the cap with a sealing film, or seated on the neck rim and held by the cap. In one version, the proximate end of the sub-container body has a protruding shape with inclined walls for guiding it into the neck opening.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for the safe removal of a wet, fully-plated cathode from a silver recovery cell and its replacement by a fresh cathode. The fresh cathode is brought to the recovery cell in a transport housing, which is then docked thereto. A drip tray is unfolded from the transport housing so as to extend across and surround the top of the recovery cell. The fresh cathode is removed from the transport housing and put to one side. The used cathode is removed from the recovery cell, preferably by being attached to the lid which is unscrewed therefrom. The cathode is then transferred to the housing over the drip tray which catches any liquid falling therefrom. The used cathode is screwed into the transport housing, and the housing removed to a refiner for safe disposal, whilst the fresh electrode is screwed onto the recovery cell.
