A tool () for separating flesh from a core and a rind of a fruit, in particular a pineapple, comprising: a corer () that, op opposite ends, is provided with a driving member () and a cutting edge (); a flesh cutter () extending radially on the corer and having at least one cutting edge (), wherein the shape of the flesh cutter is such that upon rotation it executes a helical movement with a predetermined pitch; a rind cutter (), provided at an outer end of the flesh cutter and extending parallel to the corer, said rind cutter including a cutting edge (). The tool further comprises a section cutter (), including an annular hub () configured to be slidingly received on the corer, an annular rim (), and one or more spokes () radiating from the hub and interconnecting the hub and the rim.

A dispensing assembly for pourable food or drink products, comprising: a receptacle for accommodating a pourable food or drink product, comprising an opening; and a closure means for closing the opening, comprising a closure member, mounted across the opening, having at least one outlet, and a stop member mounted to confront the outlet, the closure member being resiliently deformable, by the pressing action of a user, from a first condition in which the outlet is spaced from the stop member and the food or drink product may be poured through the outlet to a second condition in which the outlet has been moved inwardly to a position in which it is closed off by the stop member.

Dispensing assembly

Pump for applying an increased or reduced pressure to a container. The pump is provided with a plate-like part which reacts to the pressure difference between the container and the environment. This part can preferably adopt two stable positions, and a change is signalled. This change can be brought about, for example, by the sound generated as a result of the plate-like part turning over. The pitch and the like of the sound can be influenced by arranging the plate-like part in a hollow piston and providing the latter with openings leading to the environment.

Pump with pressure-indication means

Foil cutting device for cutting a sealing foil of a bottle. This foil cutting device is of the type which is positioned from above on the bottle. To that end a cutting device is provided with a stop determining the distance between the free extremity of the bottle and the cutting knives. The foil cutting device comprises two side portions and an upper portion connecting the side portions being integral with the side portions. In this way and elastically pivoting structure results, such that foil material can be cut with a lot of feeling. Between the side portions an opening is delimited and on one of the side portions a cavity for fingers is provided so that it is clear for the user in which direction a pinching force should be exerted for cutting the foil. The cutting knives are conically flared to a plane embodied such that after cutting the resilient foil material is run up by the cutting knives and can easily be removed.

Foil cutting device

Pourer consisting of an elongated, tubular part of plastic material. This part of plastic material is made resilient and has an external diameter greater than that of the associated bottles. The tubular part is provided with a split, as a result of which the diameter can be reduced to some extent and the pourer can be accommodated with a clamping action in a bottle. This clamping can be even further promoted by providing ribs. The pourer is provided with a search point to facilitate introduction into a bottle and the pouring end is flared.
