An extraction capsule which contains a substance for preparing a liquid food, includes an extraction-side base with an outlet opening and a lateral wall which adjoins the base and has a terminal flange that is aligned radially outwards, and an injection-side filling opening which is closed by a sealing film. The extraction-side base has a peripheral edge region and a circumferential joint point which adjoins a base that lies in a first position on a plane prior to being used. The base can be brought from the first position into a second position which lies closer to the film sealing the filling opening. The extraction capsule has a console which is molded on the lateral wall and directly and/or indirectly on which an extraction-side sealing film to be perforated lies, with a perforator passing through the sealing film in the second position.

A container arrangement for product comprises at least one first independent container part having a closable dispensing opening and a second independent container part having a closable dispensing opening. The second container part can be arranged detachably in a recess of the first container part in such a manner that the first container part and the second container part are connected to form the container arrangement, wherein the first dispensing opening and the second dispensing opening point in different directions. The first dispensing opening can be closed by a first closure part and the second dispensing opening can be closed by a second closure part. At least the second closure part overlaps a subregion of the second container part and a subregion of the first container part in a locking manner.

A joint compound assembly is provided, including a main container with a base joint compound, and a container lid constructed and arranged for closing the main container, and having at least one sealed compartment enclosing a joint compound additive.

The present invention provides a cartridge for the preparation of a liquid pharmaceutical or nutraceutical formulation, the cartridge being adapted for insertion into a mixing vessel and for dispensing at least three flowable pharmaceutical or nutraceutical compositions into said mixing vessel, the cartridge comprising a container portion, a cover portion and an opening means, or more specifically an opening means of the container portion, for opening the cartridge, preferably after its insertion into the mixing vessel, wherein the container portion comprises a container wall and a container base, the container wall and the container base defining an inner lumen and an opening of the container portion, the opening being positioned opposite to the container base, and a segmenting structure located in the inner lumen of the container portion and being physically connected to the container wall and/or to the container base such as to divide the inner lumen of the container portion into at least three segments containing the at least three flowable pharmaceutical or nutraceutical compositions.

A container for mixing two fluids includes: a container, a pouring cylinder; an upward facing step portion, a cap whose inner circumferential surface is screwed onto an outer circumferential surface of the pouring cylinder, a small container placed on an inner side of the cap; a cuttable first sheet that forms a bottom surface of the small container, a removable cylinder provided at a bottom end of the cap and interposed between the cap and the upward facing step portion, and a first cutter that is provided on the container so as to face a bottom surface of the small container that is placed on the inner side of the cap. The small container is made to approach the first container, and the first sheet is then cut by the first cutter.

A method for producing a preferably cosmetic item. Furthermore, the invention relates to a device for producing preferably cosmetic items, and to a packing unit, in particular a capsule (33), for producing preferably cosmetic items. According to the invention, it is provided that the cosmetic ingredients (12) preferably required for production are available to a final consumer in precisely pre-measured units, in order for the final consumer to produce a domestic quantity of the preferably cosmetic item.

A container system for separately storing and mixing two or more substances. The container system is comprised of a main container for holding at least one first substance and a cup for holding at least one second substance, the cup being removably mounted on the neck of the main container such that at least a portion of the cup is suspended within the main container. The cup has an upper portion, a lower portion and one or more arms for connecting the upper and lower portions. Apertures are formed between the upper and lower portions of the cup such that the contents of the cup may mix with the contents of the main container following removal of an inner cap attached to the cup, and agitation of the main container. The cup and neck are sized to provide a void therebetween, thereby also permitting the substances to mix.

A food tray has a lower tray containing a first food product and an upper tray nested stably at least partly inside the lower tray, with the upper tray containing a second food product. An air permeable interface is provided between the upper tray and lower tray to allow venting of steam from the lower tray during cooking. A cover is provided for the food tray. Each of the lower tray and the upper tray are formed of a material that is suitable for use in a microwave or conventional oven. Various constructions may be used to create the air permeable interface, such as lugs, ledges and lips. The upper tray may sit above the lower tray. The trays are nested loosely for ease of removal of the upper tray from the lower tray. Various configurations of cover may be used such as a sleeve, carton or lid. The upper tray may contain the higher value food product.

An assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a container and a utensil. The container includes a bowl portion defined by a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall. The side wall and the bottom wall are each defined by an inner surface that forms a cavity of the bowl portion. The utensil is disposed within the cavity and is removably-secured to the inner surface of the side wall that defines the bowl portion of the container. An assembly is also disclosed. The assembly includes the first container, the utensil and a second container. The second container includes a second bowl portion defined by a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall. The side wall and the bottom wall of the second bowl portion are each defined by an inner surface that forms a cavity of the second bowl portion. The first container is disposed within the cavity of the second bowl portion and partially closes out an opening formed by formed by an upper end of the side wall of the second bowl portion to define: a first opening formed by the upper end of the side wall of the second bowl portion and an outer surface of the first container; and a second opening formed by the upper end of the side wall of the second bowl portion and an outer surface of the first container. A method is also disclosed.

Embodiments of the disclosed technology are directed to devices, systems and/or methods for storing a substance in the base of a disposable container. Specifically, the disclosed technology is directed to an insert for use with disposable containers such as hot beverage cups. The insert may be wholly or partially formed of a container which is sealed enclosing a substance therein. The insert may be adapted to be detachably received into the base of common containers. In further embodiments, a system may employ the insert already having been nested into the base region of a provided beverage container. The substance enclosed in the insert may be, for example, an oral hygiene product such as mouthwash.
