  • Patent number: 9821284
    Abstract: A mixing assembly includes a bag of appropriate size, configuration, shape and material and a closable spout that may have extensions of various lengths, shapes and configurations to provide enhanced mixing of a component contained in the bag upon the addition of a second component. Once the closure of the spout is removed, the second component, typically a liquid such as water, milk, juice, chemical, oil substrate, or the like, can be added to the container for mixing. After the closure is refitted, the two components are mixed then consumed or dispensed, either by removing the closure or from a separate spout or nozzle fitted to the closure.

  • Patent number: 8226126
    Abstract: A mixing assembly includes a coupler with a temporary seal that is connected to a first container containing mix ingredients. An internally and externally threaded insert is threadedly mated with the internally threaded coupler in an initial position short of breaching the temporary seal. A second container is screwed into the internally threaded insert. Sealing relationships are formed between the coupler and the insert, and between the insert and the received second container. Once the second container is secured to the insert, the coupler is screwed downwardly toward the insert to cause the insert to threadedly advance toward and eventually breach the temporary seal to enable contents of the first container to mix with that of the second container.

  • Patent number: 7635012
    Abstract: An initially sealed storage apparatus carrying a material is provided. The present invention is directed to a mixing unit comprising a sealed container joined to a second container. When the second container is fully united with the sealed container, a seal in the sealed container is breached and the contents of the first container and the second container can be mixed. The seal is breached by a bushing enclosed within the sealed container or enclosed in a coupler between the sealed container and the second container which is advanced against the seal, and ruptures the seal when the second container is advanced into the coupler of the coupler portion of the sealed container.

  • Patent number: 7308915
    Abstract: A packaging system is provided for storing and mixing separate ingredient components. The system includes a first bottle used for storing a first ingredient component which includes a dispensing port disposed on a top end, a mixing port disposed on a bottom end, and a seal integrated within the mixing port. The system also includes a second bottle used for storing a second component ingredient which includes a bottle neck having an opening disposed therein wherein the neck is adapted to be installed into the mixing port of the first bottle. Also, an extended tip is formed on the distal end of the bottle neck. When the bottle neck of the second bottle is installed into the mixing port of the first bottle, the seal from the first bottle is broken by the extended tip from the second bottle establishing fluid communication between the first and second bottles and allowing the ingredient components to mix.
