Abstract
Abstract A dispensing container for flowable or pasty material which includes a pressure fluid container mounted in a body of a dispensing container at one end thereof. A resilient closure fitting is mounted at the other end and normally closes a discharge opening. When the resilient closure fitting is deformed, the discharge opening is opened. An actuator rod mounted in the closure fitting actuates the pressure fluid container to release gas under pressure which drives a piston along the dispensing container to discharge contents thereof.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
168 words
A dispensing container for flowable material which comprises an elongated hollow body, a resilient closure fitting mounted in the body adjacent one end thereof, there being a discharge opening in the body opposite the closure fitting, the closure fitting normally closing the discharge opening, a container for fluid under pressure mounted on the body adjacent the opposite end thereof, means for deforming the closure fitting to open a passageway between the interior of the body and the discharge opening, and actuator rod means extending between the closure fitting and the pressure fluid container, the actuator rod means being arranged to open the pressure fluid container when the closure fitting is deformed to release fluid under pressure into the hollow body to cause discharge of flowable material from the dispensing container through the discharge opening, pressure inside the body urging the closure fitting to closed position, there being an opening in the wall of the body to release pressure in the body when the pressure fluid container is closed.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
168 words
A dispensing container for flowable material which comprises an elongated hollow body, a resilient closure fitting mounted in the body adjacent one end thereof, there being a discharge opening in the body opposite the closure fitting, the closure fitting normally closing the discharge opening, a container for fluid under pressure mounted on the body adjacent the opposite end thereof, means for deforming the closure fitting to open a passageway between the interior of the body and the discharge opening, and actuator rod means extending between the closure fitting and the pressure fluid container, the actuator rod means being arranged to open the pressure fluid container when the closure fitting is deformed to release fluid under pressure into the hollow body to cause discharge of flowable material from the dispensing container through the discharge opening, pressure inside the body urging the closure fitting to closed position, there being an opening in the wall of the body to release pressure in the body when the pressure fluid container is closed.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
62 words
A dispensing container as in claim 1 wherein there is a piston in the body movable therealong, the piston separating pressure fluid in the dispensing container from the contents of the dispensing container, the piston including a main portion extending transversely of the dispensing container and a skirt extending from the edge of the main portion and away from the discharge opening.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
36 words
A dispensing container as in claim 2 wherein the piston is providEd with a central bore through which the actuator rod means extends, the piston holding the actuator rod means in centered position in the body.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
A dispensing container as in claim 1 wherein the opening in the wall of the body is adjacent the pressure fluid container.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
108 words
A dispensing container as in claim 1 wherein the closure fitting and a portion of the body have complementary frustoconic sections, the discharge opening being formed in the frustoconic section of the body, a plug portion of the closure fitting extends outwardly of the body, an opposite end portion of the closure fitting rests on a bead in the wall of the body, and a passageway extends through the closure fitting from the opposed end to the frustoconic section thereof, the closure fitting being deformed by inward pushing of the plug portion to provide communication between the interior of the body and the discharge opening through the passageway.
