A beverage apparatus, the beverage apparatus being hand-holdable by a user of the beverage apparatus to be portable, can include a beverage chamber housing that includes a chamber for storing a consumable liquid. The beverage apparatus can include a dispensing assembly that includes a receptacle. The receptacle can retain a vessel. The vessel can include an electronic tag and can contain an additive. The dispensing assembly can be operatively controllable by a controller to output the additive from the vessel into the consumable liquid. The beverage apparatus can include one or more sensors, devices, or assemblies that can be used to detect a volume of liquid in the chamber or a liquid level in the chamber. The beverage apparatus can include an apparatus processing portion (ACP) and an apparatus database portion.

An improved drinking vessel is a drinking cup or glass having a mixing blade located on the interior bottom having a shaft passing through the bottom of the glass to a rotationally separate portion of the glass that can be spun by hand. A screen sets inside the glass just above the mixing blade to prevent ice or other large solids in the glass from contacting the mixing blade.

A beverage container has a body with an open top, an interior volume and a closed bottom. A lid assembly is removably coupled to the open top of the body. A storage compartment is removably coupled to the closed bottom of the body. A mixer is coupled to the lid assembly. The mixer can mix contents located inside the body. The mixer can be silent when a user of the beverage container shakes contents located inside the body.

An apparatus and a method for manufacturing instantly emulsified cosmetics is disclosed. The apparatus comprises: a housing; a pump in the housing for discharging an instantly emulsified emulsion outside of the housing; a first container in the housing for storing an internal fluid; a second container in the housing for storing a functional fluid including a functional raw material; a third container in the housing for storing an external fluid; a channel part in the housing for receiving the external fluid, the internal fluid and the functional fluid generate an emulsion; and a tube provides the pump with the emulsion generated in the channel part, wherein the channel part includes: a first channel for mixing the internal fluid and the functional fluid to generate a mixed fluid; and a second channel for mixing the mixed fluid provided from the first channel and the external fluid to generate an emulsion.

A method for reconstitution of substances includes a liquid container having a pre-determined volume of diluent and a powder container having a corresponding pre-determined amount of powder to be reconstituted. The method allows an individual to safely reconstitute the powder into a liquid solution having the desired concentration without measuring or potential spillage. The powder container includes a female threaded connection designed for liquid-tight attachment to the liquid container and further includes a breakable membrane seal which, when broken by the distal end of the liquid container, creates an orifice for the diluent to enter the powder container to reconstitute the powder and thereafter be displaced into the liquid container for use. Before the membrane seal is broken, the pre-determined amount of powder partially occupies the powder container chamber.

A drug mixing container is provided. The drug mixing container includes a container with an opening facing upward and a cover body. An inner peripheral wall of the container includes at least one piercing structure protruding toward the opening of the container. The cover body accommodates a drug and includes a sealing film for sealing the drug in the cover body. In use, when an opening of the cover body is coupled downward to the opening of the container, the sealing film is pierced and torn by the piercing structure to make the drug in the cover body flow into the container, thereby preventing hands of an operator from being stained with the drug.

A beverage aeration apparatus is used to generate air bubbles within a contained beverage, preferably wine, to enhance the overall visual appeal of the wine. The apparatus is also configured to improve the overall scent of the wine by providing contact with air, which stimulates the release of various fragrant tones contained within the wine. A pump connected to a hose provides a constant flow of air into the bottom of a wine glass, thus allowing that air to flow up through the wine and gather smells and scents contained within. The bubbles may be controlled to flow at different rhythms or rates to provide an interesting visual pattern for the user to observe. Furthermore, the apparatus may be configured to provide spray nozzles or tools to cause the wine to eject at various angles and pressures, thus providing a dazzling wine show within the wine glass.

A modular flow monitoring package (MFMP) is provided for use in an additive delivery system. The MFMP may be manufactured as an add-on to be added to an existing additive delivery system, or may be incorporated into a cartridge or container structure. The MFMP includes a flow sensor for sensing flow of a base fluid and user actuator position sensors for sensing the position of one or more user actuated additive flow adjustment levers. A visual display, which may comprise an array of multi-color LED's may convey information to a user that is relevant to a user's use of the additive delivery system or the user's nutritional needs. Such information may include a current dosage of additive, being delivered, whether a recommended dosage of additive has been consumed, remaining life of a cartridge or supply of additive, and other data relative to health or performance monitoring.
