Patent attributes
A multi-port cap adapter for a liquid dispensing system is disclosed including a liquid container which supplies liquid to a draw-off mechanism. A cap is removably mounted on the container for selectively closing the outlet opening thereof with the cap having an opening formed therein. A top housing is positioned on the cap with a portion thereof extending downwardly into the cap. The top housing includes take-off members which extend to a draw-off mechanism such as a mixing machine, etc. A flexible, low-profile valve is associated with each of the take-off members. Each of the valves includes a dome-shaped diaphragm having a normally closed slit formed therein. When sufficient vacuum pressure is subjected to the take-off member, the associated valve opens to permit liquid to flow from the container through the valve and outwardly from the associated take-off member to the draw-off mechanism associated therewith.
