Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dispensing container. More specifically, the present invention relates to a dispensing container that allows its users to access all of its interior surfaces.
  • Dispensing containers used for solids, gels, pastes, cosmetics, condiments, all forms of viscous materials and any non liquid content typically are small plastic containers that include a means for the dispensing of the content within the said container.
  • a number of dispensing containers use gravity or applied pressure from the user by squeezing the container for the content to disperse from a small opening usually in the top of the container.
  • Some of these dispensing containers may include spray pump or a hand pump that suctions the content through a straw-type tubing and then emits the content into the user's hand, onto the user's food, or on the surfaces being cleaned by the user with regard to any soap or cleaning content.
  • the typical dispensing container may vary in size but usually contains a few ounces up to 20 or 30 ounces of fluid within the container for use.
  • the common hand pump utilizes a straw-like tubing that extends downwardly into the dispensing container, many times the bottom surface of the dispensing container is flat and therefore the pump-type dispenser may leave unused content within the dispensing container. Most of the unused content is unable to be suctioned through to the tubing due to the positioning of the tube that extends into the dispensing container. Many times the tube is extended downward in the center of the dispensing container and functions in an efficient manner until a low level of content is left within the dispensing container. The interior walls of the dispensing container is also left with unused content. It would therefore be advantageous to have a dispensing container that permits its users to access all of its interior surfaces once its normal dispensing process can no longer disperse its remaining content.
  • Document US 2015/175320 A1 discloses a container according to the preamble of claim 1. It has the functionality to allow the user a full interior access through the means of a pivoting hinge and a close and release buckle.
  • Applicants' invention comprises further improvements in the configuration of the finished dispensing container and in the manufacture of the finished dispensing container to provide its users access to all of its interior surfaces.
  • the purpose of a dispensing container with interior access is for when the said dispensing container can no longer disperse the low level content within its bottom surface and interior walls through its normal dispensing process.
  • Applicants' dispensing container with interior access (100) comprises of: a container (100), where said container (100) is structured in two halves (1/2), an upper halve (1) and a lower halve (2), adjoined by a pivoting hinge (3) to hold the two halves (1/2) together with the following combination of locking components on the lower halve (2) of the dispensing container with interior access (100); a front lower snap bump (8), a left lower snap bump (12), a right lower snap bump (11), and lower radial snap bumps (5) that serve as the tongues and the following combination of locking components on the upper halve (1) of the dispensing container with interior access (100); a left upper snap (4), a front upper snap (6), a right upper snap (10), and an upper radial snapping rim (9) that serve as the grooves; and additional locking and unlocking components, wherein the additional locking and unlocking components are distributed across the lower halve (2) of the dispensing container with interior access (100) comprises of a front lower relief in
  • the current dispensing container on the market today lacks the design and functionality to release and allow complete access to its viscous content.
  • the said dispensing container can no longer disperse its content the consumer is burdened by not having full access to the content they purchased and the environment is burdened by the possibility of contamination of disposed dispensing containers that may have remaining chemical content in them.
  • dispensing container When the current markets dispensing container can no longer disperse its remaining content for the consumer the consumer does not reap the full benefits of the said product. If the consumer chooses to use alternative methods to access the remaining content that could not be dispersed such as: warming up, cutting open, or even placing the dispensing container in an upside down position for the content to eventually surface, the consumer runs the potential risk of direct or indirect harm and time wasted without the guarantee of achieving complete access to the said content nor preserving it if the dispensing container is cut open.
  • Another potential risk that the current dispensing container bears is environmental contamination.
  • consumers dispose of their dispensing containers that have remaining chemical content in the said dispensing container can have a direct and indirect effect on the environment at large.
  • the present invention relates to a dispensing container that improves the performance of a hand pump and squeeze style dispensing container.
  • the dispensing container according to the present invention utilizes unique features within the interior and exterior of the container to ensure complete access to the content through the use of a secured open, close, lock, and seal system within the dispensing container.
  • the present invention is a dispensing container with interior access 100 that includes two halves 1,2, an upper halve 1, a lower halve 2, a pivoting hinge 3 and locking components 4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12 and unlocking components 13,14,15 that allows the dispensing container with interior access 100 to open through the center of the upper halve 1 and lower halve 2 of the dispensing container with interior access 100 for interior access to any remaining content that its normal dispensing process could not disperse through a an open inner rim mouth 16 or dispensing pump.
  • seal 7 that will prevent content from seeping once the upper halve 1 and the lower halve 2 are adjoined and secured by the pivoting hinge 3 and locking components 4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12.

  • Dispensing container with interior access 100 may be made from plastic, metal, ceramic, glass, or any other rigid material.
  • the upper halve 1 and lower halve 2 of the dispensing container with interior access 100 may be disengaged by lifting the following lock components; the left upper snap 4, the front upper snap 6, the right upper snap 10, and the upper radial snapping rim 9 in an upwardly direction from the lower radial snap bumps, front lower snap bump 8, right lower snap bump 11, and left lower snap bump 12, with the assistance of the left lower finger relief indentation 13, right lower finger relief indentation 14, front lower finger relief indentation 15, and the pivoting hinge 3.
