Title:
CONTAINER OF WIPES WITH 'FALLBACK PREVENT' DISPENSING NOZZLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/181373
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a container of wipes B with a dispensing nozzle 2. The nozzle 2 features an annular projection 14 which is built into a Rigid Flip Top (RFT) A. The inside of the nozzle 2 features inward facing spikes (not shown). The spikes are made from a flexible elastomer that enables the pointed end to move in an upward direction when subjected to upward pressures from say a wipe 4 being inserted into the nozzle 2. If downward forces act on the wipe after it has been inserted into the nozzle so as to force the wipe 4 back into the container B, the pointed ends of the spikes (not shown) dig into the wipe 4, forcing the pointed end of the spike or spikes (not shown) to move back to its original position. This action thereby forces the ends of spike or spikes to dig into the wipe 4 and also imposes space restrictions within the nozzle 2, both actions thereby impede wipe fall back.
