A pour spout container with a pour spout which may be pulled out of the container is disclosed as including a container (10) and a pour spout (24, 48). The sealing cap (20, 50) is provided for sealing the container and the pour spout. Threads (16, 22) are formed between the cap and a container neck (12). Threads (30, 32) are formed between an inner cap (20a, 50a) and pour spout (24, 48). Turns of threads (30, 32) are greater than the turns of threads (16, 22) so that the sealing cap may be removed from the container while remaining attached to the pour spout. Grasping of the cap may be utilized to extend the pour spout fully from the container without contacting the pour spout which has been in contact with the fluid in the container. Thereafter the cap may be removed from the pour spout for dispensing fluid. For this purpose, the pour spout is prevented from turning relative to the container so that unthreading thereof can be accomplished without grasping the pour spout.
A container having a pull-out pouring spout for dispensing a fluid from the container into a remote filling opening, comprising:
A method of dispensing fluid from a container to a remote and inaccessable filling opening which includes providing a container with a threaded neck, wherein the method comprises the following steps:
A method of dispensing fluid from a container to a remote and inaccessible filling opening, said container comprising a fluid holding cavity, an externally threaded neck portion, an open-ended externally threaded pouring spout formed integrally with said container, at least partially disposed within said cavity, and a sealing cap having a first set of threads for engaging said threaded neck portion and a second set of threads, having more turns than said first set for engaging said threaded open-ended portion of said pouring spout, comprising the following steps:
