Assignee:

Silgan Plastics Corporation - Chesterfield MO
International Classification:

B67D 3/00
US Classification:

222480, 2221427, 220253
Abstract:

A dispenser for dispensing a viscous material in a selected one of a multiplicity of configurations comprises a container for a volume of a viscous material and having a squeezable body and a neck with a discharge opening at its upper end. Engaged on the container is a closure body of generally circular cross section having a top wall and a skirt, and the top wall has a discharge passage therethrough aligned with the discharge opening of the neck. The body top wall has a generally circular recess therein extending from the periphery thereof and beyond the discharge passage of the closure. Disposed in the circular recess is a generally circular rotating disc which has a multiplicity of discharge openings spaced about the disc in a circular array, and the discharge openings have a multiplicity of configurations. The disc is rotatable to align a selected discharge opening with the discharge passage in the top wall to permit viscous material to flow through the neck and the top wall of the closure body into and through a selected disc discharge opening.
