CONTAINER AND NOZZLE

摘要

In the container and nozzle disclosed, the nozzle is formed from a die cut sheet and mounted to the container in flat condition for storage and transport. The nozzle has a tab at an upper end and a pour channel at a lower end. The tab has an aperture with radially oriented slits to be pressed over threads on the container neck and thereby held in position. The pour channel has four panels and a glue panel joined by score lines to be expandable from the flat condition to an open condition for allowing a material to flow through. A number of slits are cut through the sheet along a juncture between the tab and the pour channel, the slits allowing the pour channel to be fully expanded with minimum distortion.
