  • the discharge chambers 9 and 10 forming elevations 9, which taper from the container ceiling 8, starting at cross-sectionally tapering to their free ends.
  • the elevations 9 are provided with one, an output chamber 6 and 7 associated with the mouth opening 10 for the stored medium.
  • the latter are arranged in a plan view eccentrically to the dispensing head center axis diametrically opposite. Further, as can be seen from the top view in FIG. 8, these mouth openings 10 are formed in the adjacent circular edge sections of the elevation ceilings, leaving a distance defined by a web 11 connecting the elevations 9.
  • the mouth openings 10 are surrounded by eccentrically aligned to the opening axis ring walls 12, which ring walls 12 in cooperation with the cap 1 - as will be explained in more detail below - assume a sealing function.
