Abstract
A device for connecting a dispenser having a circular outer periphery with a first diameter to a glass container having a flanged open neck, which employs a flat circular non metallic ring shaped gasket engaging the upper surface of the flange. A metal ferrule has a flat circular top with an opening through which the dispenser extends. The top overlies and engages the upper surface of the gasket. A vertical hollow cylinder having an upper end coincident with the top extends downward along the outer vertical surface of the flange with a lower end terminating in a plurality of spaced fingers. A second vertical cylinder having a central opening through which the dispenser extends, extends vertically downward along the outside surface of the first cylinder past the spaced fingers, the inner surface of the second cylinder engaging the fingers and forcing them into locking engagement with the outer surface of the flange.
