A side-by-side cartridge assembly for dispensing a first fluid and a second fluid includes a first cartridge body and a second cartridge body having first and second cartridge coupling elements, respectively. The first cartridge body extends along an axial direction and has a radial boundary or periphery transverse to the axial direction. The first cartridge has a first neck portion of a neck, and the second cartridge has a second neck portion of the neck. The first neck portion projects from the first cartridge body such that the first neck portion is within the radial boundary or periphery of the first cartridge. As such, the first cartridge coupling element operatively connects to the second cartridge coupling element to secure the first cartridge to the second cartridge and form the neck for discharging a first fluid and a second fluid.

A system for the preparation of a multi-component food product, such as coffee, tea, soup or baby food. The system comprises two or more capsules (300,400), each capsule providing a component of the multi-component food product, each capsule having an inlet region for receiving liquid into the capsule and an outlet region (330) for dispensing liquid from the capsule, wherein the outlet region of a first capsule is configured to mate with the inlet region of a second capsule, such that the first and second capsules may be connected in fluid communication.

An apparatus is disclosed for preparing a liquid preparation using a two-part system comprising a first part including a first reagent and a second part including a second reagent, wherein the first reagent and the second reagent react when mixed to form an active ingredient of the liquid preparation. The apparatus comprising a mixing funnel having a reaction chamber, an inlet region for admitting a quantity of the first part and a quantity of the second part into the reaction chamber, for example from a dispensing capsule, to form a reagent mixture in the reaction chamber in use, and an outlet comprising at least one restriction orifice for releasing the reagent mixture from the reaction chamber at a controlled rate, and a primary chamber arranged to receive the reagent mixture from the reaction chamber through the restriction orifice.

A package for dispensing product includes a tube assembly and an applicator. The tube assembly includes a first tube holding a first product and a second tube holding a second product. A first tube head assembly is coupled with the first tube and includes a first conduit in fluid communication with the first product. A second tube head assembly is coupled with the second tube and includes a second conduit in fluid communication with the second product. The applicator comprises a seal that seals both the first and second conduits.

A container for fluid products, particularly pharmaceutical, cosmetic, medical products or the like includes an hollow body divided into: a first tank containing a first fluid substance and communicating with a first dispensing hole of the first fluid substance; a second tank containing a second fluid substance and communicating with a second dispensing hole of the second fluid substance; a neck associated with the hollow body and on which are formed the first dispensing hole and the second dispensing hole; a selector element associated with the neck by interposition of rotation means able to rotate the selector element around an axis of rotation, and the selector element includes an outlet channel able to dispense selectively, due to the rotation of the selector element, the first fluid substance or the second fluid substance.

An edible paste dispenser for applying decorative icing to cakes and other foods includes a tip assembly that connects paste containing chambers of a dual-chamber pastry bag and directs edible paste into a common extrusion nozzle. The tip assembly includes a pair of mating tubes secured via a locking nut to the extrusion nozzle. The tubes each have a sidewall portion that is generally S-shaped in cross-section and permits stable assembly and cooperative engagement of one tube with the other tube. After insertion of a tube into each pastry bag chamber, the tubes are attached to a common extrusion nozzle. The resulting extruded paste can include two different colored decorations, which can appear swirled S or other curvilinear shape provided by the two engaged cones. The tips of the cones, and paste containing bags, terminate just above the exit portal of the common nozzle.

A foodstuff packaging system includes a plurality of foodstuffs, a container having an interior cavity, and a tray having a recess. The foodstuff packaging system is operable between a first configuration wherein the container is received within the recess of the tray and a second configuration wherein the tray is disposed within an interior cavity of the container. In the first configuration, the tray has a first length defined by a first length portion and a second length portion joined together along a perforated tear seam. In the second configuration, the second length portion is separated from the first length portion along the tear seam.
