Abstract
The present invention provides syneresis negation to capture the liquid separated from the gel so that only gel is dispensed from the container. The apparatus includes a reservoir, a hollow shell and a riser tube extending under the hollow shell. When the container holding the liquid separated from the gel is inverted for dispensing, the liquid rushes to the cap. The liquid flows over the hollow shell to the reservoir, which captures the liquid. The gel then covers the liquid and is forced up into the hollow shell and flows over the riser tube to be dispensed from the cap opening.
Claims10
A syneresis negation apparatus for use with a bottle, said apparatus comprising:
- a cap for receiving a mouth of the bottle and presenting a reservoir, said cap having a top surface and an interior surface;
- a riser tube having a first end extending through said interior surface of said cap to said exterior surface of said cap, and a second end opposite said first end extending to an interior of the bottle;
- a hollow shell secured to said second end of said rise tube and covering said second end of said rise tube;
- whereas when the bottle is transitioned from an upright position to an inverted position for dispensing a gel from the bottle, liquid separated from said gel flows over said hollow covering and collects in said reservoir followed by said gel;
- whereas said gel flows up and under the hollow covering, over said second end of said rise tube and exits the bottle through said first end of said rise tube.

- a hollow hemispherical dome secured to said second end of said rise tube;
- whereas said second end of said rise tube extends proximal an apex of said hollow hemispherical dome;
- whereas when the bottle is transitioned from an upright position to an inverted position for dispensing a gel from the bottle, liquid separated from said gel flows over said hollow hemispherical dome and collects in said reservoir followed by said gel;
- whereas said gel flows up and under the hollow hemispherical dome, over said second end of said rise tube and exits the bottle through said first end of said rise tube.
