ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a container incorporating a rotatable pouring spout that comprises a spout outlet remotely offset from a rotation axis and an inlet element rotatable about the axis . The container has an adjacent and corresponding outlet element. Each element has an opening offset from the rotation axis, which openings come into and out of register upon spout rotation. The container further incorporates a ball detent adapted to releasably engage the spout outlet when the openings are out of register. The spout can also be displaced along the rotation axis towards and away from the container between sealing and locking positions. The container may further comprise an engagement device which comprises a sealing element arranged between the inlet and outlet elements and extending around both openings when in register and around one of the openings when out of register. The engagement device also comprises a locking element arranged between the inlet and outlet elements that extends around one of the inlet or outlet elements when the spout is in the sealing position. When the spout is in the sealing position the sealing element engages both the inlet and outlet elements and the locking element engages only one of the inlet or outlet elements. When the spout is in the locking position, the sealing element and the locking element engage both the inlet and outlet elements.
