摘要

A bottle packaging ( 10 ) includes a groove ( 40 ) on the neck ( 22 ) of a bottle with the groove spaced longitudinally from a shoulder of the bottle ( 11 ) a distance greater than or equal to a width of the groove, and upper ( 22a) and lower ( 22b) portions of the neck may have outer transverse cross - sectional dimensions that are substantially equal to one another. An upper circumferential sidewall of the groove may be chamfered, while a lower circumferential sidewall may be concave. The bottle may be combined with an adapter ( 48 ) such that when the adapter is releasably connected to the bottle, a lowermost rim of the adapter is spaced longitudinally from an upper reach of the groove. The adapter may include a detent ( 131 ) on an inner surface thereof adapted to removably seat in the groove to releasably connect the adapter to the bottle. A closure ( 30 ) member may include at least one of a detent ( 331 ) and a sealing member removably seated in the groove.
