Patent ID: 8820590

Claim:
A deformable small packaging structure for free-flowing products, comprising a valve-like closure produced by a two-component injection molding process and including a dimensionally stable carrier element and an outer jacket which envelopes the carrier element at least in part and has a flexible squirt-nozzle with slotted openings, said outer jacket having an annular flange in engagement with the carrier element and said outer jacket having, in relation to the retracted squirt-nozzle, a meander-shaped configuration adjacent to the squirt-nozzle, said meander-shaped configuration comprising two concentric annular portions having adjacent, mutually inverted U-shaped cross sections, the radial inner U-shaped portion thereof being defined by an axially extending outer annular wall of the squirt-nozzle and an inner axially extending annular wall of said adjacent radially outer U-shaped portion of the outer jacket, and wherein the squirt-nozzle has formed thereon several radial stabilizing ribs which extend from the squirt nozzle and end at a distance short of the annular flange, which stabilizing ribs are bridging the radial inner U-shaped cross section of the meander shaped configuration and are arranged at an angular distance from one another.
