Container adapted to hold and dispense bagged fluids

This invention describes a system for dispensing liquids from a bag. It uses an outer container to hold the bag, and a movable spike inside the container punctures the bag to create a sealed connection. A spigot then controls the flow of liquid from the bag through the spike.

Why it matters: Since 2004, advancements in food-grade plastics and precision molding could improve the reliability and hygiene of the internal spike and sealing mechanism. This, coupled with increased demand for collapsible and sustainable packaging, could make the design more viable.
