Abstract
A non-refillable fitment is provided in accordance with the teachings of the present invention. The non-refillable fitment takes the form of a hollow cylindrical housing having a valve seat disposed in a lower portion thereof. A valve in the form of an annular ring is provided within the housing and a vented retainer is inserted in an upper portion of the housing. The cylindrical housing may be inserted within the neck of a conventional bottle in much the same manner as a cork and when so inserted and the bottle is vertically disposed, the inner circumferential surface of said valve will seal against the valve seat and the outer circumferential surface of the valve will seal against an inner circumferential surface of the hollow cylindrical housing to prevent refilling. When the bottle is inclined to a pouring angle, the valve will be cocked against the retainer to permit pouring to take place.
