A combined container and stirring device which can be used with and resembles the shape of known infusion bags is disclosed. The combined container and stirring device comprises a body made of material that is resistant to liquids. The body comprises a lower body and an upper body. A filter bag surrounding a granular, powdered, or liquid product is provided. The filter bag is arranged within a cavity in the lower body. The upper body wraps around the lower body to form a compact shape when the device is in a folded state. The upper body extends upwardly from the lower body to form a handle when the device is in an expanded state.

A dip-type extraction bag having a bag main body in a planar shape, being formed of a water-permeable filter sheet and filled with an extraction material, wherein the extraction efficiency is improved by providing the body with a specific gripping portion formed from a thin plate-like material and regulating the characteristics of the sheet. The extraction bag includes a bag main body, a thin plate-like member provided on an outer surface thereof, and an extraction material sealed in the bag main body, which is subjected to extraction. The bag main body is a flat bag that has two facing surfaces. The thin plate-like member has a gripping portion that protrudes or is able to protrude from an upper side or the outer surface of the bag main body. The bending resistance (41.5? cantilever method in JIS L 1913:2010 (ISO method)) of the water-permeable filter sheet is 0.09 to 6.0 mN.Math.cm.

A biodegradable whole leaf pillow tea bag is provided, along with a system and method for manufacturing biodegradable whole leaf pillow tea bags. The method for manufacturing the whole leaf pillow tea bags includes the steps of providing a biodegradable infusion substrate having two opposing edge; creating a sleeve from the biodegradable infusion substrate by infusing the two opposing edges of the substrate together and closing the sleeve at its bottom; placing whole leaf tea in the bottom of the sleeve; vertically feeding the sleeve containing the whole leaf tea into a heat sealing machine that will, at predetermined intervals create heat seals across the sleeve to create pillow bags; cutting the pillow bags from one another across the heat seal. In one example, the biodegradable infusion substrate may contain hemp and/or the whole leaf tea may be infused with CBD oil or other supplements. The same method of manufacturing may be used to create a biodegradable pillow bag containing coffee.

A single-use means for preparing a beverage from an infusible product, containing a bendable sheet-like base with a designated bend line, and a moisture-permeable bag for brewing a product, wherein the bag has an upper portion attached by one side to the sheet-like base, and an unattached lower portion, wherein the sheet-like base and the bag are designed and mutually arranged such that the sheet-like base can cover a vessel containing a liquid, in which the bag is immersed during the brewing of a product, and such that the product can be squeezed after brewing by bending the sheet-like base and pressing the bag from two opposing sides using the bent sheet-like base, wherein to allow more careful squeezing of an infusion from the product in the bag after brewing, the region in which the attached side of the upper portion of the bag is attached to the sheet-like base is situated along a line that intersects the bend line of the sheet-like base, wherein the line along which the attachment region of the bag is situated substantially coincides with the bend of the bag in its suspended state on the base during use.

A filter-bag for liquid infusion products including a thermoformed body with filtration properties having an inner volume defined by a bottom, a mouth delimited on the perimeter by an upper flat edge, and a connecting wall between the bottom and the upper edge; the wall being provided with at least one rib extending from the bottom towards the upper edge in such a way as to define at least two chambers for containing corresponding infusion products separate from each other and included in the internal volume of the thermoformed body; a flat piece of non-thermoformable filter material, having transparency characteristics, and associated with the upper edge of the body for covering the opening and separating the chambers obtained in this way.

Provided is a bag knot structure including: a bag body part (10) formed in two layers, and configured to have closed three sides and have an open inlet; a first hole (21) located on one side of the top of the bag body part (10) and in proximity to the inlet, and formed through the bag body part (10); a second hole (22) located in proximity to the first hole (21), and formed through the bag body part (10); a third hole (23) spaced apart from the second hole (22), located on the other side of the top, and formed through the bag body part (10); and a knotting wire (30) disposed on the back surface of the bag body part (10); wherein parts of the knotting wire (30) are caused to form a first loop (31), a second loop (32), and a grip (34).

There is provided a drinks stirrer (10) for stirring an infusion pouch within a drink. The infusion pouch comprises a pouch soring an infusion media, a tag for holding the infusion bag, and a string connecting the pouch to the tag. The drinks stirrer (10) comprises a proximal end (14) having a retainer device (32, 34) for retaining the tag to the proximal end, and a distal end (12) having a scoop (20) for holding the pouch. The scoop (20) comprises a slot (24) for receiving the string to constrain the pouch to adjacent the scoop. A drinks apparatus comprising the infusion pouch and the drinks stirrer is also provided.
