Fast fit bottle mount

Abstract

An assembly ( 1 ) for docking a complementary container, said assembly ( 1 ) having beyond a container locator a container head retention collar ( 6 ) deformable outwardly to allow a clip fit retention against removal without deformation of the collar ( 6 ), wherein the retention collar ( 6 ) is integrally moulded yet has localised regions, each carrying a retention element ( 11 ) capable of being pressed and/or twisted outwardly allow said clip fit.

1 . A fast fit assembly adapted to dock a necked container charactensed in that the assembly includes. 
 a resilient collar which includes an array of elements,    each said element with a form to be moved outwardly radially against a bias as a container is being axially docked until each moves inwardly radially with the bias to capture (at least in part) a neck flange or the equivalent of the container (hereafter “head”) by its underface, each said element being integral with and/or supported by linking regions, there being in the collar sufficient deformability to allow both the docking movement as aforesaid and to allow a docked container to be moved free from the elements.
