Abstract: An infusion package mover comprises a housing comprising a hood (30) and a bottom (32) and a driving mechanism for moving a C-shaped rocker (34) back and forth. A flat spring (40) is attached to rocker (34) to form a slot for receiving and holding a string (44) attached to an infusion package (tea bag) (46) so that package (46) is suspended in an extracting liquid (52) in a cup (50). A push on a button (72) starts an electric circuit that causes the driving mechanism to move rocker (34) in the directions shown by the arrows so as to move package (46) back and forth in liquid (52), thus improving infusion. The movement continues until the electric circuit turns off the power. Other embodiments provide enhancements. After starting, the mover can be left unattended.

Abstract: One embodiment of an infusion package comprises a prepared raw material compartment (10) formed by sealed partitions (12) and (14) and containing prepared raw material (16). Partition (14) separates compartment (10) from a flotation compartment (18) filled with flotation material (20) to cause the package envelope to float in a liquid. Any floatable material which is inert and harmless in the liquid, or a gas bubble sealed in a liquid-tight bag can serve as flotation material. A sealed envelope top (22) carries advertising materials, though advertising labels can be attached to its surface as an option. One end of a string (24) is attached to top (22) and the other—to a conventional label (26). The package envelope can be agitated and removed from the liquid with the help of top (22) or string (24). The envelope can be entirely or in part of a liquid-permeable, heavier-, or lighter-than-liquid, inert and harmless material like paper, fabric, plastic net, perforated plastic film, etc.
