A container system for transporting and dispensing agricultural products. The container system includes a housing assembly and a set of agricultural product containers. The housing assembly has multiple slot assemblies for containers. The agricultural product containers are configured to be releasably contained within the slot assemblies. The set of agricultural product containers may include liquid agricultural product containers and dry agricultural product containers. The slot assemblies and agricultural product containers are cooperatively configured to provide the ability to utilize either of the agricultural product containers within the slot assemblies.

An apparatus for making a beverage includes a housing, a first receptacle, a second receptacle, a cutting assembly, a water source, and at least one water outlet. The first receptacle is positioned in the housing for accepting a first beverage container containing a liquid. The second receptacle is positioned in the housing for accepting a second beverage container containing a liquid. The cutting assembly has a cutting blade that is movable relative to the first and second receptacles for opening the first and second containers substantially simultaneously so that liquid stored therein can be at least in part evacuated. The water source is coupled to the housing The at least one water outlet is associated with one or more of the first and second receptacles for adding water to the liquid from the first and second beverage containers from the water source.

Disclosed is a catering truck on an aeroplane. Drink pots are designed on the catering truck. Each drink pot holds a different liquid drink. Each drink pot corresponds to one faucet. A flight attendant pours drinks for passengers by means of a faucet switch. Four technical solutions are included: a catering truck travelling on the corridor floor of an aeroplane; a catering truck travelling while hanging on a central rail in the ceiling right above the corridor floor of an aeroplane; a catering truck travelling while hanging on a side rail in the ceiling oblique above the corridor floor of an aeroplane; and a catering truck travelling while hanging on a rail on the luggage rack of an aeroplane. Meanwhile, further proposed is a design concept of storing a catering truck in the ceiling or the luggage rack.

A liquid dispenser for dispensing a consumable liquid from a container. The dispenser includes a cabinet configured to receive one or more containers in an inverted position such that liquid is induced by gravity to flow out of an open interior of the container though a dispensing opening. A positive pressure valve assembly is mounted to the dispensing opening of the container prior to insertion of the container into the cabinet. The valve assembly includes a cap connected to the dispensing opening and a discharge tube extending from the cap. A flow restrictor of the valve assembly is positioned to selectively open and close the discharge tube to control the flow of liquid from the container. A one-way valve is positioned between the open interior of the container and a supply of air. The one-way valve allows air flow into the container as the fluid is discharged to maintain a positive pressure within the container.

A metered tap includes a pouring spout and a sliding section. The spout accurately dispenses, from an internal reservoir of a container, a predetermined one or one-and-a-half ounce volume of alcohol in a controlled single pour with precision. The metered tap is movable between retracted and extended configurations. The sliding section has an internal chamber to contain the volume, and a top portion with fill openings into the internal chamber. In the retracted configuration, the sliding section is within the container, and the alcohol flows from the internal reservoir into the internal chamber through the fill openings. In the extended configuration, the sliding section is extended relative to the retracted configuration, and blocks flow of alcohol from the internal reservoir. When the pouring spout is selectively actuated, the alcohol is dispensed and empties from the internal chamber by gravity flow. Also disclosed are a dispensing stand and method of use.

A galley insert beverage making system for producing chilled drinks comprising: a body configured to be inserted into a vehicle galley compartment. The body comprises: a cooling system; and a motor. The galley insert beverage making system also comprises a pitcher system. The pitcher system comprises: a pitcher; a blending element configured to be rotationally driven by the motor; and a stirring element configured to be rotationally driven by the motor. The body defines a cavity configured to receive the pitcher, and the system is configured such that the cooling system cools the pitcher.

Apparatus, for making an individual drink, with a pressure source, a store defining a plurality of housings, a plurality of removable containers each immobilized, in a service position, in a respective housing. Each container including a receptacle containing an ingredient, and an upstream emptying valve allowing the ingredient to leave towards the outside via an overpressure generated inside the receptacle by the pressure source. A chamber receives the ingredients extracted from the containers, via the upstream emptying valves, under the effect of the overpressure, so as to make the drink. A control module commands the overpressures in the containers as a function of a desired composition for the drink. Each housing includes a draining coupling via which the ingredient of the container immobilized in the housing can be extracted from the container. The draining coupling opening, in the downstream direction, directly into a funnel defined by the chamber.
