A dispenser to dispense a liquid in two or more metered portions. The dispenser has a flexible main reservoir with fluid connections to two or more smaller metered dispensing reservoirs. Each reservoir has a spout and can be sealed via a threaded cap. When a user loosens or removes the cap of the metered dispensing reservoir(s) and squeezes the flexible main reservoir, metered portions of liquid are delivered to each metered reservoir which can be dispensed and/or consumed directly. Such dispensing or consumption can be controlled to occur simultaneously or individually via removal of each cap and inversion of the dispenser. Each reservoir may feature specialized contours, volumetric indicators, angled spouts, and other improvements.

A bottle (20) comprising an open-topped outer container (21) comprising a resilient body (22) for holding a water, an inner container comprising a flexible pouch (28) for holding a gel, a closure (24) adapted to fix to the top of the outer container thereby forming an enclosure for containing the water, a fixing (38,42) configured to allow the inner container to be suspended from the closure, an outlet that is in fluid communication with both the outer container and the inner container thereby allowing the outlet to dispense the water and the gel, a switch mechanism (41) including a switch moveable to select between placing the outlet in fluid communication with the outer container and placing the outlet in fluid communication with the inner container, and an air inlet and a one-way valve configured to allow air to flow into the outer container.

The invention relates to a container with multiple chambers or partial containers, which are connected along an axis that corresponds to a longitudinal axis or parallels to the longitudinal axis or along a spiral form at least in sections. A central element, which can be manufactured together with the partial containers, has proven itself for such a connection. Outside such connection, the partial containers are separated as far as possible by air gaps.

The container according to the invention facilitates the simultaneous storage and transport of different substances, in particular liquids, whereby the substances are thermally insulated well from each other.

A container system comprising a hollow body defined by a continuous outer peripheral wall having a first cavity and a second cavity opposing the first cavity and separated by a dividing wall, a neck opening into the first cavity and a wider open mouth at the end opposing the neck for receiving a base container therein having a lid that engages the inner surface of the outer peripheral wall to secure the base container in the mouth and substantially seal the second cavity.

A liquid dispensing apparatus may include a first container containing a first liquid. The first container can have an opening in an end of the first container. The liquid dispensing apparatus may also comprise a second container adjacent to the first container. The second container can contain a second liquid and the second container can have an opening in an end of the second container. The opening in the end of the first container can be proximate to the opening in the end of the second container. The first container and the second container can separate the first liquid from the second liquid. One of the first liquid and the second liquid can contain a tastant which is essentially absent from the other liquid or is present in a relatively differing amount. The arrangement of the first container and the second container, and/or the arrangement of the opening in the end of the first container and the opening in the end of the second container can be such that, when the first and the second liquids are poured from the apparatus, the first liquid flows through the opening in the end of the first container and the second liquid flows through the opening in the end of the second container, such that the first liquid begins to exit the opening in the end of the first container before the second liquid begins to exit the opening in the end of the second container.

A container (100) for isolating first and second fluids, such as beverage concentrate components, until dispensing is provided, as well as methods of assembly and dispensing. The container can have first (111) and second (113) enclosed bodies for containing the first and second fluids to be dispensed and an insert (130) directing fluid from the enclosed bodies, such as toward one or more valves or separate discharge paths (148a, 148b).
