Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0056621A1] An apparatus for retaining and dispensing liquid including a container and a cap. The container is provided with a hollow body (20) for retaining liquid, and a dispensing end (26) for pouring. The cap is provided with a spout (42) which depends from the closed end wall (34) of the cap and adapted for telescopic insertion into the neck of the bottle. This spout (42) may act not only as a measuring and pouring structure, but also as a leak-resistant seal by having a thickened base (52) which pushes the neck radially outwards upon closure of the cap. The bottle is preferably of molded plastic, with a locking (32) member being molded onto the shoulder of the bottle. Unlocking can only be effected by squeezing the cap in a manner so as to release a ridge in the cap from the locking member.
