<p>Tap for use with bag-in-the-box liquid containers. The tap has a neck member (18) with a passageway (26) through the neck member. The passageway is closed at its outer end by a manipulable valve assembly (28). The neck member (18) has a liquid flow port (40) communicating laterally with the passageway, (26), and a valve member (69) is provided which normally overlies the port (40) to close the tap. A resiliently deformable diaphragm (64) is attached to the valve member (69) so as to extend across and close off the passageway (26). This diaphragm (64) is arranged such that externally applied manual deformation of it is effective to lift the valve member (69) away from the port (40) to open the lap so that a liquid flow path is established between the inner end of said passageway (26) and the exterior of said port (40). Also disclosed are an integral valve cap, another valve assembly for a tap including a conical valve member axially movable to open and close a fluid passageway, and a container assembly having an inner flexible bag within a relatively rigid outer box with a neck member attached to the inner bag and slidable through an aperture in the outer box. </p> |
