Benefits of technology

[0005] The present invention is an elongated sealed container with a self-contained opening means fully enclosed within the container to release the liquid sealed within the container. The enclosed opening means may be operated by either squeezing or bending the elongated sealed container at or near the enclosed opening means. Once the enclosed opening means is opened, the liquid sealed within the elongated sealed container may be released for application. When the elongated sealed container has a small cross-section such that the liquid within it cannot be released due to its surface tension, a guiding member may be utilized to increase the capillary action and to overcome the surface tension of the liquid to release the liquid from the elongated sealed container. There are no loose parts that may be lost and all components are completely sealed within the container.

Problems solved by technology

None of the opening means are designed to be enclosed within the container to seal a liquid in the container and yet still allow the release of the liquids easily and reliably.
The availability of an effective and easy to use opening means is particularly lacking for a small elongated container with a small cross-sectional area.

Embodiment Construction

[0025]FIG. 1 shows the preferred embodiment of the sealed container with enclosed opening means. In the preferred embodiment, the sealed container with enclosed opening means comprises of an elongated tubular housing 1 with a sealed end 2 and an open end 3. A liquid 4 is enclosed within the elongated tubular housing 1 near the sealed end 2. An enclosed opening means 5 is disposed inside the elongated tubular housing 1 sealing the liquid 4 within the elongated tubular housing 1. The opening means 5 may be operated either by squeezing or bending the elongated tubular housing 1 at or neat the enclosed opening means 5.

[0026] When the elongated tubular housing 1 has a small cross-section such that the liquid 4 within it cannot be released simply by opening the opening means 5 due to its surface tension, a guiding member 6, 7 may be utilized to increase the capillary action and to overcome the surface tension of the liquid 4 to release the liquid 4 from the elongated tubular housing 1 as...

Abstract

An elongated sealed container with a self-contained opening means fully enclosed within the container to release the liquid sealed within the container is disclosed. The enclosed opening means may be operated by either squeezing or bending the elongated sealed container at or near the enclosed opening means to release the liquid sealed within the elongated sealed container for application. There are no loose parts that may be lost and all components are completely sealed within the container.

Description

BACKGROUND [0001] 1. Field of Invention [0002] The present invention relates generally to a sealed container with an opening means enclosed within the container for releasing the liquids enclosed within the container. [0003] 2. Description of Related Art [0004] A variety of opening means exists for opening a container. Most opening means are in the form of a screw-on cap or a snap-on cap. Some opening means are in the form of a frangible seal or a score line on the container that will allow the contents of the container to be released upon fracturing of the frangible seal or the container at the score line. All of these opening means are either attached to the container externally, such as the screw-on cap and the snap-on cap, or are formed as part of the container, such as the frangible seal and the score line on the container. None of the opening means are designed to be enclosed within the container to seal a liquid in the container and yet still allow the release of the liquids ...
