Appl. No.:

12/704902

Inventors:

Eric William Gruenwald - Dallas TX, US
Lawrence Lambelet - Flemington NJ, US
Patrick James Mulligan - Dallas TX, US

International Classification:

B65D 41/38
B65D 41/34

US Classification:

215253, 220266, 220265

Abstract:

The present invention provides an enhanced water product, wherein a solid dosage product is conveyed with a bottle of water in an attached dosage cup. The attachment is achieved with a novel frangible feature that flexes out of the way during a simplified snap-on assembly. The feature breaks away when any attempt is made to separate the dosage cup from bottle, thus rendering the product safe from malicious tampering. In an alternate embodiment, the dosage cup is used to measure any liquid product.

International Classification:

B65D 77/04

US Classification:

215 6

Abstract:

A solid dosage preparation is provided with a bottle of water. The solid dosage preparation is contained within a cavity at the bottom of the bottle and held captive therein by a heat-sealed lidding. The lidding indicates an attempted tampering event by limiting the means for opening to a witnessing tear. The bottle stands on its cap to provide clear viewing of the containment area.

International Classification:

B65D 51/28
B65D 55/06

US Classification:

215201, 215227, 206219

Abstract:

A solid dosage preparation is provided with a bottle of water. The solid dosage preparation is housed in a compartment of a closure applied to the bottle of water. The solid dosage preparation is capable of being dispensed in a single-handed manipulation of a roller-like chamber. The roller-like chamber is provided with a means for indicating any tampering of the enclosed solid dosage preparation, which is maintained in a protective environment between the chamber and the compartment.

International Classification:

B65D 81/32

US Classification:

426115

Abstract:

A nutritional preparation in solid dosage form is provided with a bottle of water. The solid dose is contained a safe and sanitary blister package and attached by means of a shrink band to the closure of the bottle. The shrink band provides a tamper-indicating seal for the both the bottle and blister contents. An advantage of the design is that it does not require customization of bottle and closure tooling, and thereby provides a simple and cost-effective means for combining solid and liquid materials in a unitary package.

Abstract:

A solid dosage preparation is provided with a bottle of water. The solid dosage preparation is contained in a safe and sanitary blister package and attached by means of a shrink band to the closure of the bottle. The shrink band provides a tamper-indicating seal for the both the bottle and blister contents. An advantage of the design is that it does not require customization of bottle and closure tooling, and thereby provides a simple and cost-effective means for combining solid and liquid materials in a unitary package. An additional advantage is the robustness of the tamper-indicating system and methodology.
