Definitions

  • Liquids for consumer use are commonly packaged in plastic containers. Examples of liquids for consumer use sold in such containers include soda, laundry detergent, milk, juice, and household cleaning agents. A consumer trend is for consumers to demand larger containers for such liquids. For example, whereas soda was commonly sold in the 1970's in volumes of approximately 0.3 L, in the 1980' s that expanded to 2 L, and more recently even 3 L. A similar trend has occurred for laundry detergents, with liquid laundry detergents being marketed in ever larger containers in response to consumers tending to shop less frequently and the perception of value associated with larger packages.
  • a 2 L container filled with such fluid can have a mass of 2 kg.
  • Liquid containers for laundry detergent, milk, juice, and household cleaning agents are often provided with a handle to assist the consumer.
  • Making a liquid container with a handle can be technically challenging. Since large volumes of fluids are heavy, the forces can be high between the portion of the container where the handle joins the remainder of the container. To resist such high forces, relatively thick walls are used to reduce the corresponding stresses, which thereby limits deformations to acceptable levels.
  • One problem with using relatively thick wall sections is that more plastic must be used, which increases the cost of the container, which in turn increases the cost of the product to the consumer.
  • the pour assist device can comprise an outlet and a closure receiver proximal the outlet.
  • the pour assist device can comprise a container support shroud extending from the closure receiver.
  • the container support shroud can have an interior surface sized and dimensioned to envelop at least a part of a container.
  • the container support shroud can comprise a connecting member proximal the closure receiver.
  • the pour assist device can comprise a handle extending from the container support shroud.
  • Fig. 1 is a pour assist device shown with a container engaged therewith, portions of the container support shroud, cap, and closure receiver rendered in sectional view.
  • Fig. 2 is a container, a portion of which is rendered in sectional view.
  • Fig. 3 is a cross section of a pour assist device with a container installed therein, the section being taken at a location that passes through the handle and viewed towards the outlet.
  • Fig. 4 is an embodiment of a connecting member.
  • Fig. 5 is a side cross sectional view of a pour assist device.
  • Fig. 6 is a pour assist device having a transparent portion.
  • Fig. 7 is a bottom view of a pour assist device.

  • the consumer can experience the benefit of the pour assist device 1 as follows, by way of non-limiting example.
  • the consumer can purchase a simply constructed container 30 from a store.
  • the container 30 can be a thin-walled plastic container 30 having the minimum structural properties required to endure filling, shipping, and storage.
  • the container 30 can have a simply constructed cylindrical cap. Since the components of the container 30 and cap are simply constructed, the container 30 and cap can be low cost, especially compared to a container having a handle and provided with an ergonomic or otherwise functionally enhanced cap.
  • the consumer can benefit by saving money or the marketer can provide enhanced characteristics to the contents of the container.
  • the cost structure may permit the marketer to provide an enhanced bleaching technology with no change or a net decrease to the price per load to the consumer as compared to price per load when the detergent is marketed in a more
  • the container 30 can be for a product selected from the group consisting of liquid laundry detergent, liquid soap, household cleaner, soda, milk, and fruit juice.
  • the consumer can remove the simply constructed cap and install the container into the pour assist device 1. For instance, the consumer can insert the open end of the container 30 into the pour assist device 1 or lower the pour assist device 1 over the container 30 until the pour assist device 1 click-engages with the container 30. The consumer can then use the pour assist device to help pour the liquid contained in the container 30.
  • the pour assist device can be provided with a cap 12 that serves as a dosing cup, like that commonly deployed for liquid laundry detergents, or dose/flow metering device, or a cap 12 having other functionality that can act to contain the contents of the container 30.
  • the cap 12 can be a cap as shown and described in US Patent 5,181,630, US patent 5,549,209, US Patent Application 2011/0162151 Al, and US Patent Application 2011/0311296 Al.

  • the pathway of liquid transport can be from the container 30, through a neck of the container, to and through the outlet 10 of the pour assist device 1.
  • the pour assist device 1 can further comprise a cap 12 sealingly engaged with the closure receiver 15.
  • the closure receiver 15 can comprise threads to which a cap 12 can be screwed.
  • a cap 12 can provide for containing the fluid within the container 30 when the pour assist device 1 is not in use.
  • the cap supplied as a closure for the container 30 when the container is presented to the consumer in a store can be the same cap 12 that can be connected to the closure receiver 15 or a different cap 12 can be employed.
  • the cap 12 shown in Fig. 1 is rendered in partial section view to show the cap 12 sealingly engaged with the closure receiver 15. By sealingly engaged it is meant that liquid does not leak between the cap 12 and the closure receiver 15 under the maximum hydrostatic pressure that can occur with the pour assist device 1, given the depth of the liquid contained in the container 30.
  • the cap 12 can be sealingly engaged with the closure receiver 15 with a threaded connection. Threaded connections are thought to be efficacious for preventing leaks between caps and containers.
  • the cap 12 can be a flip top cap having spud that sealingly engages with an orifice in the closure receiver 15.
  • the cap 12 can be any kind of closure that is capable of sealingly engaging with the closure receiver 15 so as to prevent or reduce the potential for leakage from the pour assist device 1.
  • the cap sold with the container in the store can be a simple circular/cylindrical plastic cap, like those commonly used for 2 L containers of soda in the United States.
  • These caps are typically screw caps that are generally cylindrically shaped and have a plurality of lines around the outer surface of the cap in a direction orthogonal to the direction of rotation of the cap.
  • Such caps are inexpensive but can suffer from having an inadequate griping surface and may be too small for a consumer to grip tightly so as to allow the consumer to twist off the cap from the container.
  • marketers of liquid containers must find the right balance between cost of the cap and the possibility of having a more complex ergonomic design that is beneficial to the consumers.
  • a more ergonomically acceptable cap 12 can comprise thermoplastic elastomer and/or foam and be contoured to conform with a consumer's grip.
  • the cap provided with the pour assist device might have a diameter that is approximately 3 cm as compared to a simple circular plastic cap that has a diameter of 1.5 cm. Larger diameter caps tend to be more ergonomically acceptable than small diameter caps, up to a certain diameter within which a typical human hand can grasp in a palm grasp or grasp between the thumb and index finger.
  • the handle 40 can comprise a first material 42 and the container support shroud 20 can comprise a second material 43 having a chemical composition different from said first material.
  • the first material 42 can comprise polypropylene, rubber, neoprene, and/or KRATON and the second material can be high density polyethylene, polyamide, and/or styro lacrylintrol.
  • the handle 40 can comprise a thermoplastic elastomer that is soft to the consumer's touch.
  • pour assist device 1 can be that marketers of such devices can invest in making a high quality pour assist device 1 and/or cap 12 that the consumer retains when the container 30 is spent. The consumer can then purchase a replacement container 30 and reuse the high quality pour assist device 1 and/or cap 12. Since the pour assist device 1 has a handle 40, the marketer of the liquid filled container 30 need only to provide a basic container 30 that can withstand the stresses of manufacture, shipping, and storage. The container need not include other functional elements such as a handle, since that attribute is provided by the pour assist device 1. Providing individual containers 30 with handles and grips is an expensive proposition and can add significant cost to products.
  • Providing the consumer with a single reusable pour assist device 1 can be economically attractive to the consumer, since she will not have to pay for the complexity of providing a container with a handle or grip with every purchase of the container 30. Further, fewer raw materials may be consumed in making a basic container 30 as compared to a more substantial container having a handle.
