Definitions

  • This invention relates to a dispensing container for salted sauces, sweetened sauces, and the like.
  • Dispensing containers are widely used, e.g. in domestic or so-called snack bar environments, for consuming salted or sweetened sauces and the like, and in particular a sweet-and-sour tomato sauce, better known as ketchup sauce, which is much appreciated for dressing fried potato chips, Hamburg steaks, and other dishes.
  • a sweet-and-sour tomato sauce better known as ketchup sauce
  • a dispensing container of the above-mentioned type being characterized in that it comprises a body of substantially bottle-like shape extending between a bottom and a mouth and being at least partly deformable elastically.
  • said body has an elastically deformable middle portion with a narrowing cross-section.
  • the numeral 1 designates generally a dispensing container according to the invention.
  • the dispensing container 1 comprises a body 2 of substantially bottle-like shape, which is intended for filling with some sauce, such as a salted, or sweetened, or sweet-and-sour sauce.
  • some sauce such as a salted, or sweetened, or sweet-and-sour sauce.
  • the body 2 extends between a bottom 3 and a mouth 4. It has a portion 5, lying adjacent the bottom 3, which is configured as a cylinder with a set diameter dimension, e.g. of 82 mm, and set height dimension, e.g. of 90 mm, and is intended for application of a label 6.
  • the body 2 also has a portion 7, adjacent the mouth 4, which is funnel-shaped with a major diameter equal to the diameter of the cylindrical portion, i.e. of 82 mm, and a minor diameter equal to the diameter of the mouth 4, e.g. of 35 mm, and with a set height dimension, e.g. of 73 mm.
  • a middle portion 8 having a set height, e.g. of 77 mm.
  • the portion 8 has a narrowing cross-section into a grip 9 for the dispensing container 1 to be gripped by a user's hand.
  • the narrowing portion 8 has in a meridian direction thereof a profile to the arc of a circle of appropriate radius to provide, at its narrowest point, a diameter of about 68 mm.
  • the body 2 of the dispensing container 1 is formed from a film of a plastic material. More specifically, this film includes five layers, namely a core layer of ethylvinyl alcohol which is cemented, as by means of two coats of a cement such as ADMER, to two outward layers, e.g. of non-toxic polypropylene, to provide an overall thickness dimension of about 0.3 mm. Such a film is commonly referred to as a "five-layered co-extrudate".
  • the body 2 of the dispensing container 1 is, at least in part and specifically at its middle portion 8 forming the handgrip 9, deformable elastically under the action of a compressive force exerted by the user's hand.
  • the dispensing container 1 further comprises a delivery member 10 of funnel-like shape which is molded from a suitable plastics, such as polyethylene.
  • the funnel-shaped delivery member 10 has an end 11 of large diameter and an end 12 of small diameter.
  • the end 12 forms a delivery outlet 13 for the sauce.
  • the member 10 is secured with its end 11 on the body 2 at the mouth 4 by snap engagement as provided by hook-on means and mating means, respectively indicated at 14 and 15 and being formed on the delivery member 10 and the body 2, respectively.
  • the delivery member 10 is provided with a removable stopper formation, indicated at 16 and being an integral part thereof, which is arranged to seal the delivery outlet 13.
  • the stopper formation 16 is intended for removal, as by cutting it off, when the dispensing container is used for the first time.
  • a cap-type stopper adapted to close the outlet 13 of the delivery member 10. It is formed integrally with the delivery member 10 and connected to it by a small elastically deformable bridge 18 of appropriate length to ensure convenience in use and against its becoming lost.
  • cap 17 is connected to the delivery member 10 by a frangible bridge 19, formed integrally therewith, which would be quite short in length and effective to hold the cap 17 close to the delivery member 10, but adapted to be broken, as by tearing away, on first use of the cap 17.
  • the dispensing container of this invention affords the outstanding advantage of being uncommonly easy to use.
  • the sauce is ultimately dispensed in exact dosages as desired, in a convenient way and with sparingly applied movements, by just squeezing the body of the dispensing container.
  • the inventive dispensing container has shown to be light in weight and easily handled, as well as advantageous from the sanitary standpoint.
