Device for dispensing a flowable substance and associated container |
摘要 |
The invention relates to a dispensing device for dispensing a flowable substance to form a beverage. The device includes a removable container which in a filled state has a main flexible pouch into which is stored the flowable substance and a fitment located at the bottom of the pouch and tightly attached thereto. The fitment is shaped so as to include a pair of side flanges at least one passage for allowing the flowable substance to pass therethrough by gravity. The device also has a dispensing base adapter that includes a pair of side channel-type guides shaped to guide in slidable arrangement the flanges and a bottom bearing surface for supporting the fitment. In addition, the device has an elastic member for maintaining a downwardly oriented pressure of the flanges onto the bottom bearing surface effective to create a substantially tight seal arrangement and prevent the flowable substance from entering the space between the flanges and the bottom bearing surface.
