Patent ID: 8459312

Claim:
A system for removing the contents of a bottle, the system comprising: an adapter configured to be interfitted into the bottle and having a seal for application against an internal surface of the bottle, the adapter having a central opening extending therethrough and a distal end configured for extending into the neck of the bottle; a normally closed valve located proximate the distal end of the adapter closing the central opening, the normally closed valve comprising leaflets movably joined at a parting line slit; and a dispenser including a barrel portion and a narrowed tip portion at a distal end, the narrowed tip portion adapted to be inserted into the central opening of the adapter and dimensioned so as to penetrate no further than a predetermined distance into the an interior cavity of the normally closed valve to open the normally closed valve and thereby the central opening for removal of the contents of the bottle, wherein, when penetrating to the predetermined distance, the narrowed tip portion enters the interior cavity of the normally closed valve to interferingly and laterally expand sidewalls of the normally closed valve to open the valve without contacting any portion of the parting line slit.
