Definitions

  • This invention relates to a flexible sealing device for a liquid dispenser for a bottle. More particularly, the invention relates to a sealing device for a liquid dispenser of the kind used to dispense liquids in measured quantities from bottles or other containers. Such dispensers are frequently used in bars for bottles of spirits.
  • Known sealing devices for such liquid dispensers are made of cork, which tends to split and break-up, thereby allowing the contents of an inverted bottle to run out. Also, corks always have a certain porosity and they tend to stain.
  • a flexible sealing device for a liquid dispenser for a bottle having a central through bore so that the device can fit in a sealing manner about a liquid inlet for the dispenser, and the device also being able sealingly to fit into the neck of a bottle from which liquid is to be dispensed, the device having blind apertures extending through the material of the device and spaced around said bore, these apertures enabling the body of the device to be compressed as it is inserted into the neck of a bottle after the device has been fitted on the liquid dispenser.
  • the drawing shows a flexible sealing device 1 mounted on a known liquid dispenser 2 of the kind used to dispense liquids in measured quantities from bottles.
  • the dispenser 2 has a liquid inlet 2A and is able to be mounted on the neck of a bottle by means of the sealing device 1.
  • the sealing device 1 is flexible and can be made of an elastomeric material such as a thermoplastic material, which could be rubberised plastics.
  • the device 1 has a central, cylindrical through bore 3 so that the device can fit in a sealing manner about the liquid inlet 2A of the dispenser.
  • the outer profile of the device 1 is tapered and preferably stepped as shown in Figure 1 so as to be accommodated in the necks of a variety of bottles.
  • Figure 2 shows the inner end 4 of the device 1 that is pushed onto the dispenser 2.
  • blind apertures 5 are provided which extend through the material of the device 1 and are spaced around the bore 3.
  • the apertures 5 are in the form of arcuate slots. Each aperture 5 extends over a length L of the device 1 ( Figure 1) and can follow the taper of the 'device.
  • the present sealing device is leakproof and non-porous, and the provision of the blind apertures 5 tends to prevent the device from splitting when the device is under compression.
  • the sealing device can be injection moulded and should have inert properties so as to be non-staining and so as not otherwise to react with the liquid in the bottles.
