Abstract: A method for filling a dispensing bag includes inserting a collapsed bag within a chamber of a bin and securing a lower end of the collapsed bag to the bin. After securing the lower end of the collapsed bag to the bin, a hoist coupled to an upper end of the collapsed bag is manipulated so that the hoist raises the upper end of the collapsed bag within the chamber while the lower end of the collapsed bag remains secured to the bin so as to expand the collapsed bag within the chamber of the bin.

Abstract: A method for filling a dispensing bag includes inserting a collapsed bag within the chamber of a bin, the chamber being bounded by a floor and an upstanding sidewall. A first port formed on the collapsed bag is securely fixed within a port hole formed on the floor of the bin. A hoist mounted on the bin is manipulated so that the hoist raises an upper end of the collapsed bag within the chamber while the first port remains fixed within the port hole so as to expand the collapsed bag within the chamber of the bin.

Abstract: A fluid bin assembly includes a bin having a floor with a side wall upstanding from the floor. The floor and the side wall bound a chamber. An opening extends through the floor and communicates with the chamber. One or more retention plates are removably mounted to the floor of the bin so as to at least partially cover the opening extending through the floor. The retention plates at least partially bound one or more portholes that openly communicate with the chamber of the bin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a package for storing, mixing, resuspending and dispensing sterile or non-sterile solutions or suspensions and comprises a sterilizable bag having fittings which provide for the introduction and exit of fluids and solids, as well as means for resuspending and stirring the fluids. Additionally, structural support means are provided for shipment, filling and dispensing. Unlike conventional stainless steel equipment, the system is disposable, does not require cleaning, provides for safe, rapid and accurate resuspension of suspended solids and can accommodate a wide range of liquid volumes.
