Abstract
A plastic liquid container and dispensing system includes a plastic bottle with first and second detachable bottle parts, a bladder for holding liquid including a bladder top, a bladder base and a bladder lock-nut positioned in the bladder inner volume and a spout having a spout body with a connecting end, an internal liquid flow path extending from the connecting end to a liquid outflow port and a release button for enabling liquid flow through the internal liquid flow path and out the liquid outflow port. The bladder opening is covered by a covering that is pierced by a blade at the spout connecting end to create a liquid flow path from the bladder to and through the spout (when the release button is pressed).
Claims20
A plastic liquid container and dispensing system, comprising:
- a plastic bottle with a bottle top, a bottle base and an internal bottle volume;
- a bladder or insert for holding liquid that includes a bladder top, an opening at the bladder top, a bladder base, a bladder internal volume, and a lock-nut within the bladder internal volume for securing the bladder;
- and
- a spout having a spout body with a connecting end, an internal liquid flow path extending from the connecting end to a liquid outflow port enabling liquid flow through the internal liquid flow path and out the liquid outflow port and a release button;
- wherein the spout connecting end is passed through the bladder opening and removably secured to the bladder lock-nut and dispenses the liquid held in the bladder when the release button is pressed;
- and
- wherein the bladder includes a cover that covers the opening at the bladder to sealingly maintain liquid therein and that is pierced to enable liquid flow from the spout.
A plastic liquid container and dispensing system, comprising:
- a plastic bottle with a first bottle part that is detachably connected to a second bottle part to form in internal bottle volume, the first bottle part including a bottle top, and the second bottle part including a bottle base;
- a bladder for holding liquid including a bladder top with an opening, a bladder base and a bladder lock-nut positioned at or fixedly attached to the bladder top and formed with a flow path for liquid out of the bladder;
- and
- a spout having a spout body with a connecting end for connection to the bladder, a plastic gasket positioned on the connecting end of the spout and an internal liquid flow path extending from the connecting end to a liquid outflow port for liquid flow through the internal liquid flow path and out the liquid outflow port;
- wherein the spout connecting end is inserted through the opening and removably attached via first threads to the bladder lock-nut to connect the spout to the bladder;
- and
- wherein the bladder includes a cover that covers the opening at the bladder top to sealingly maintain liquid therein.
A plastic liquid container and dispensing system, comprising:
- a plastic bottle with a first bottle part that is detachably connected to a second bottle part to form in internal bottle volume, the first bottle part including a bottle top, and the second bottle part including a bottle base;
- a bladder for holding a liquid, the bladder positioned in the internal volume and formed with a bladder top having an opening, a bladder base and a bladder lock-nut positioned at or fixedly attached to the bladder and formed with a flow path for liquid out of the bladder;
- and
- a spout having a spout body with a threaded outer surface including a connecting end for connection to the bladder, a spout flange positionable along the threaded outer surface, and an internal liquid flow path extending from the connecting end to a liquid outflow port for liquid flow through the internal liquid flow path and out the liquid outflow port;
- wherein the spout connecting end is inserted through the opening in the bladder top up to a location of the spout flange on the threaded outer surface to connect the spout to the bladder, attached via the threaded outer surface to the bladder lock-nut, thereby connecting the spout to the bladder;
- wherein the first bottle part is connected to the second bottle part, sealingly enclosing the bladder within the internal bottle volume;
- and
- wherein the bottle top of the first bottle part connects to the spout.
