Abstract: The invention provides a multi-compartment container for storing and dispensing separately a plurality of consumable liquids that can be mixed in an accurate and repeatable manner. Each storage compartment within the container encloses a predetermined quantity of a consumable liquid, wherein the first compartment is filled with a first liquid and the other compartments are filled with second and third liquids. The individual storage compartments are structurally merged to form elongated dispensing compartments each with a first end and a second end, wherein a one-way outlet positioned at the first end and a one-way outlet located at the second end permits passage of liquid from the storage compartments into the corresponding dispensing compartments. Upon fully inverting the container, the designated outlet of each dispensing compartment is opened, wherein precise amounts of liquids in the first, second, and third compartments are dispensed at constant volume ratio using gravity.

Abstract: A flush-mountable playing card randomization system having a shuffling zone with a playing card insertion area comprising a playing card support surface at a first elevation with respect to a highest level within the randomization system. Associated with the playing card support surface is a playing card mover moving individual playing into a first side of the shuffling zone. There is a randomized playing card collection surface at a second elevation with respect to the randomization system. The collection surface at the second elevation is at least 5 centimeters lower than the playing card support surface, with an exposed or exposable playing card collection area. The system may be retracted to enable manual access.

Abstract: A coating photoreactive composition comprising a hydrolyzed epoxy-silane and other active ingredients is able to provide an organic dye-tintable abrasion resistant coating without the use of traditional dye-tinting enhancing agents such as polymerizable ethers or polymerizable diethers. The compositions exhibit consistently higher abrasion resistance without significant impact on tintability.
