Definitions
- This invention pertains, in general, to the dispensing of liquids which foam profusely when agitated or otherwise aerated, such as rug washing detergents, or rug shampoos, as they are often called; and, in particular, to an end closure arrangement including a pouring spout and a valve for enabling the transfer of foamable liquid from a bottle, or like container, to another container with which the pouring spout effects a seal so that foam generated during the transfer will be confined within the bottle and the container rather than allowed to escape from the container to cause a messy condition and waste of foam and liquid.
- One object of the present invention is to enable the transfer of foamable liquid from a bottle to a container, such as a rug washers reservoir, while preventing the foam generated during the transfer from escaping from either the bottle or the reservoir.
- an end closure arrangement which, according to one illustrative embodiment thereof, is comprised of: an internally threaded cap which is intended to be screw connected in the conventional way to the externally threaded neck of a bottle containing a foamable liquid detergent; and a spout which is fitted over the top surface of the cap.
- the top surface of the cap is closed, except for an eccentrically located aperture therethrough.
- that surface portion of the spout which is in face to face abutment with the caps top surface is also closed, except for a similar eccentrically located aperture.
- the spout is contoured so that it fits within the rug washers inlet port in sealed relation therewith.
- the apertured top surface of the cap and the apertured surface of the spout which is in face to face abutment with the caps top surface define a valve. This valve is open when both of the eccentrically located apertures are in register and the valve is closed when the top surface of the cap covers the spouts aperture and the surface of the spout, likewise, covers the caps aperture.
- the bottle is inverted and the spout is inserted in the rug washers inlet port in sealed relation therewith.
- the conforming shapes of the spout and inlet port are noncircular so that the spout which is fitted over the cap cannot be rotated or turned relative to the rug washer while the spout is within the inlet port.
- the inverted bottle and its cap are rotated as a unit relative to the stationary spout until the caps aperture comes into register with the spouts aperture.
- the bottle and its cap are rotated as a unit in the reverse direction relative to the stationary spout until the valve closes.
- the separate cap is eliminated and the neck of the bottle is so constructed that its top surface is closed, except for an eccentrically located aperture therethrough which communicates with the interior of the bottle.
- a spout like that hereinbefore described is fitted over the top surface of the bottles neck.
- the apertured top surface of the bottles neck and the apertured spout define a valve.

- FIG. 20 is a sectional view taken along the section line 20-20 of FIG. 19.
- a first embodiment of the subject end closure is shown in the exploded perspective view at FIG. 1.
- the end clo sure is comprised of a cap 10 and a spout 16.
- the cap 10 and spout 16 are to be assembled with a bottle, designated generally by the reference number 14, for containing a foamable liquid detergent, such as a rug shampoo.
- the bottle 14 is a conventional bottle having a neck 12 with an opening 13 in the top thereof which communicates with the interior of the bottle. On the outer periphery of the neck 12 there is provided a projecting spiral thread 18.
- the bottle 14 is preferably formed from a transparent or somewhat transparent material, such as glass or polyethylene so that the level of the liquid therein may be observed.
- the cap 10 may be molded from a relatively hard ma terial, such as Bakelite or a hard melamine plastic.
- the cap 10 is of a generally cylindrical shape and it has, as shown at FIG, 3, an internal spiral groove 20 which receives the projecting spiral thread 18 when the cap is screwed onto the neck of the bottle.
- the cap is provided with a roof 32 which has a relatively flat outer' surface through which an aperture 34 is provided, the aperture 34 being eccentrically located with respect to the center of the roof 32 as indicated at FIGS. 1, 3 and 4.
- Four ledges 22, 23, 24 and 25 integral with the roof 32 extend outwardly from the roof 32. These ledges serve to retain the spout 16 when it is fitted over the cap 10 as shown at FIG. 3.
- ribs 26 In the outer periphery of the cap 10 there is formed a plurality of projecting ribs 26. As will become clear from the discussion hereinafter appearing, these ribs 26 enable the cap 10 to be firmly grasped by a persons fingers during the liquid dispensing operation. Also formed in the caps outer periphery are two outwardly projecting stop members 28 and 30 which serve to limit the angle through which the cap 10 and bottle 14 may be rotated relative to the spout 16. The stop members 28 and 30 will, as explained hereinafter, abut against another stop member 50, or tab, provided on the spout 16.
- the other part of the end closure according to the first embodiment is the pouring spout 16 which is molded from a material that is softer and more flexible than the material from which the cap 10 is made.
- the spout 16 may be molded from polyethylene or the like.
- the spout 16 has a skirt 40 which extends downwardly from a floor portion 44; the skirt 40 having an inwardly turned ledge 40a as indicated at FIG. 3. Since the spout 16, as well as the skirt 40 and ledge 40a are of relatively soft material, it can easily be temporarily deformed and forced over the ledges 22, 23, 24 and 25 of the cap, as indicated at FIG.
- a wall 42 Extending upwardly from the floor portion 44 is a wall 42 which defines a four wall enclosure or duct. As indicated at FIG. 3 the upwardly extending wall 42 tapers inwardly by a small angle A so that it can enter and make sealed contact with the complimentary tapering wall 64 which defines the inlet port 62 of the rug washer 60 (FIGS. 11 and 12).
- the rug washer 60 is fully described in the Allen et al. patent, hereinbefore identified.
- a reinforcing wall 48 Within the four wall enclosure defined by wall 42 there is a reinforcing wall 48 which is integral with the wall 42 and a floor 44a which is within the four wall enclosure. As indicated in the drawing the reinforcing wall 48 divides the four wall enclosure into two compartments.
- the reinforcing wall 48 serves two purposes: First, it provides lateral rigidity for the four wall enclosure, preventing buckling of the wall 42 away from the inlet ports wall 64 when the four wall enclosure is inserted into the rug washers inlet port 62 (FIGS. 7 and 9), thereby ensuring a sealed fitting of the wall 42 with the wall 64. Second, it serves to prevent buckling or curling of the floor 44a and thus prevent leakage of the liquid detergent between the floor 44a and the roof 32.
- a valve mechanism When the spout 16 is fitted over the cap 10 there is defined a valve mechanism. That is, the caps roof 32 and its eccentrically located aperture 34 and the spouts floor 44a and its eccentrically located aperture 46 define the valve. The valve is closed when the spouts floor 44a covers the caps aperture 34 as shown in FIG. 7; and the valve is open when both of the eccentrically located apertures 34 and 46 are aligned, in the way hereinafter described, so that they are in register as shown in FIGS. 3 and 9.
- FIGS. 7-10, 13 and 14 illustrate the manner in which the liquid is dispensed from the bottle 14 into the reservoir 68 of the rug washer 60.
- the valve mechanism hereinbefore described, is closed and the bottle 14 is inverted as shown at FIGS. 7, 9, 13 and 14.
- the wall 42 of the spout 16 is inserted into the rug washers inlet port 62 in sealed relationship therewith.
- the wall 64 encompassing the inlet port 62 is, as shown at FIG. 12, outwardly tapered as indicated by the angle A to receive the inwardly tapering wall 42 of the spout 16 so that the outside surface of the wall 42 can make intimate con: tact with the inside surface of the wall 64 to provide the aforementioned seal.
- the bottle 14 together i with its cap 10 is rotated in a clockwise direction as indicated by the arrow B in FIG. 13.
- the projecting stop members 28 and 30 are rotated through a little more than When the valve is closed these stop members 28 and 30 are in the position shown in FIG. 8.
- the projecting stop member 30 abuts the tab member 50 to prevent further rotation thereof.
- the aperture 34 is rotated into registry with the aperture 46, as shown at FIGS. 9 and 10 to permit the foamable liquid to enter reservoir 68. Since the bottle 14 is at least somewhat transparent the falling level of the liquid may be viewed with reference to the graduation rnarks, such as 11 (see FIG.
- the foam Since the liquid will tend to foam as it is being dispensed into the reservoir 68 the foam will be confined within the reservoir or within the bottle 14, and foam generated in the reservoir may be displaced therefrom into the bottle by the liquid flowing into the reservoir from the bottle. Upon closure of the valve the foam then in the reservoir will be confined to remain therein, and in order to prevent this foam from backing up out of the inlet port 62 after the bottle and spout have been removed, a cap 66 provided on the rug washer 60 may be immediately closed, thus limiting any foam that does escape from the inlet port 62 to a negligible amount.
- FIGS. 1520 The second embodiment of the invention is illustrated at FIGS. 1520.
- a spout 16 of the same kind as is employed in the first embodiment.
- a bottle 51 which has a neck 52 that is modiffied so that a cap, such as the cap 10 of the first embodiment, may be eliminated.
- the neck 52 has a relatively fiat surfaced roof 53 in which there is an eccentrically located aperture 54. Extending outwardly from the roof 53 are the four ledges 55, 56, 57 and 58 which serve the same purpose as the ledges 2225 in the first embodiment.
- the neck 52 also includes two projecting stop members 59 and 61 which serve the same purpose as the projecting stop members 28 and 30 on the cap 10 of the first embodiment.
- FIGS. 17 and 19 show in more detail how the inwardly turned ledge 40a is situated relative to the projecting ledges.
- the manner of dispensing the foamable liquid from the bottle 51 is the same as that hereinbefore described with reference to the first embodiment.
- the bottle 51 with its spout 16 is inverted and inserted into the inlet port 62 of the rug washer in sealed relationship therewith.
- the valve which is defined by the eccentrically located aperture 54 in the roof 53 and the eccentrically located aperture 46 in the floor of 44a is closed as shown in FIG. 17.
- the valve In order to open the valve to the position shown at FIGS. 19 and such that the apertures 54 and 34 are in registry the bottle 51 is rotated in a clockwise direction. With the valve open a predetermined amount of liquid may with the aid of the graduation marks 63 (FIG. 16) be dispensed into the reservoir 68.
- valve mechanism may be returned to the closed position as indicated at FIGS. 17 and 18 by rotating the bottle in a counter-clockwise direction.
- the bottle 51 and its integral neck portion 52 are rotated during the opening and closure of the valve, the spout 16 being held stationary within the inlet port 62.
- the projecting stop members 59 and 61 by virtue of their abutment against the tab 50 will limit the rotation of the bottle. Since there is no threaded connection between the bottle neck and any 6 other element, there is no danger of unscrewing the bottle so that all that need be done is to rotate the bottle.
- An article of manufacture for dispensing flowable material into a reservoir through an inlet port on the reservoir, comprising: a container for the flowable material having a neck, said neck having a top portion that is closed except for an eccentrically located aperture therethrough which communicates with the containers interior; wall means defining a spout, said spout having a floor portion which is closed except for an eccentrically located aperture therethrough, an inner wall within said spout extending from said floor portion and contacting said wall means to form a pair of ducts within said spout one of which is in communication with said aperture in said floor portion, means for rotatably connecting said spout and said neck so that in one relative position of said spout and neck said floor portion is in face-to-face abutment with said top portion whereby said floor portion closes said aperture in said top portion and said top portion closes said aperture in said floor portion; said inner wall reinforcing said wall means defining said spout against buckling and reinforcing said floor portion
- stop means having associated parts connected with said neck and spout for limiting rotation thereof between said one position and said second position.
