Abstract

A container closure (30) including a cover portion configured to substantially close a container opening (18). The closure (30) includes a raised partial-dome surface (44) having an edge at a raised elevation and generally sloping downwardly away from the raised edge (33). An outlet valve (54) depends from the partial-domed surface (44) such that it is positioned at an elevation below the raised elevation.
