Benefits of technology
The present patent describes a container with an opening or spout for dispensing liquids. The spout can unfold to an angle when the container is tilted, and there is an optional flow control partition to control the flow of liquid. The spout may also be in the container and usable when the lid is removed. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a more convenient and efficient way to dispense liquids from containers.
Problems solved by technology
This process results in many spills, drips down the side of the container, and the collection of coating in regions that can affect the seal of the lid.
This also results in unnecessary environmental contamination with the unintended release of liquid or spills of liquid into the environment.
Conventional spouts limit the ability to stack containers by not being collapsible.
Conventional spouts also do not have the ability to control liquid flow.

Embodiment Construction
[0017]The following detailed description is provided to assist the reader in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the methods, products, and / or systems, described herein. However, various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, products, and / or systems described herein will be apparent to an ordinary skilled artisan.
[0018]The present disclosure is directed to an opening on a container to dispense liquids. The opening may unfold, in one embodiment, to an angle which when the container is tilted extends past the edge of the container. The opening creates a spout when unfolded or opened.
[0019]In embodiments, underneath the opening may be a flow control partition that can control the flow of liquid from the container to the outside. The flow control partition may, for example, move up and down to control the flow of liquid. The spout / opening and / or container may include channels that can direct the flow of liquid. The opening can be opened and closed as needed. Optio...

The present disclosure is directed to an opening on a container to dispense liquids. The opening may unfold, in one embodiment, to an angle of, e.g., 90° which when the container is tilted extends past the edge of the container. The opening creates a spout when unfolded or opened. In embodiments, underneath the opening is a door that can control the flow of liquid from the container to the outside. The door may, for example, move up and down to control the flow of liquid. The spout / opening and / or container may include channels that can direct the flow of liquid. Optionally, the spout may be in the container and usable when the lid is removed.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSUREField of the Invention[0001]The present disclosure is generally directed to containers comprising pour spouts and partitions to regulate flow of a liquid.Description of the Related Art[0002]Conventionally, most liquid containing containers (including coatings containers) include a lid that is removed for the contents to be poured out onto, for example, a tray or some other container. This process results in many spills, drips down the side of the container, and the collection of coating in regions that can affect the seal of the lid.[0003]This also results in unnecessary environmental contamination with the unintended release of liquid or spills of liquid into the environment. Conventional spouts limit the ability to stack containers by not being collapsible. Conventional spouts also do not have the ability to control liquid flow. Accordingly, containers, particularly containers that contain coatings, with improved pour spouts are needed.SUMMARY OF THE IN...
