Mixing stopper, fixed on the neck of a package which includes a capsule for anchoring to the neck of the package, a receptacle containing a product to be mixed with the content of the package, a lid for closing the open base of the receptacle and a spring fitted between the receptacle and the bottom of the capsule.

This container lid fits onto existing insulated cups. It has a refillable and sealable reservoir with a top opening to receive substances and a bottom opening to release substances into a container. The release of substances is controlled and measured before release. A double piston and button combination interact with a narrow section of the reservoir to dispense only a portion of the contents from the reservoir into the container. The released portion is carefully metered within the narrow channel when the double piston alternately seals a first opening and a second opening of the narrow channel. The reservoir serves to store the unreleased substance until the next time the button is activated to release addition substance into the container.

A container containing a concentrate for dialysis includes a pouch or cartridge containing a solid concentrate of constituents for the dialysis solution, the pouch or cartridge being closed by a connector having a filling channel extending completely through the connector, which is for filling the pouch or cartridge with the solid concentrate, means for introducing a solution-forming liquid into the pouch or cartridge and for extracting the solution obtained, these introduction and extraction means having at least one connecting portion for connecting them to a corresponding port of the dialysis machine. The filling channel is closed by a stopper which has a reservoir containing a second constituent or group of constituents for the dialysis solution, and means for producing an outlet opening in the reservoir contacting the inside of the reservoir with the side of the stopper located in the container.

A closure device for closing a container opening of a container, in particular a drinks bottle, has a lid element, a chamber arranged on the cover element and an inner housing. The chamber and the inner housing have closers and openers corresponding to one another, which interact with one another in such a way that a medium contained in the chamber can move into the container as a result of a movement of the lid element relative to the inner housing. In order to create an alternative closure device, which is particularly simple to produce and can be produced from as few individual components as possible, the closer is a closure pin which is securely connected to the chamber, and which can be removed from a closure opening of the inner housing forming the opener by a movement of the lid element relative to the inner housing.

Shaker will provide users a quicker and more efficient way to take their supplements before, during, and after their workouts. This delivery system will offer them the option to carry all three main supplements at once.

A dispenser cartridge for use in a dispenser arrangement for introducing at least one dispensed substance into a liquid, includes an enveloping element with a continuous central space and with at least two openings for the entry and exit of the liquid respectively, wherein the dispensed substance is provided in the central space wherein first and second sealing means are provided which seal the openings completely in an initial configuration, wherein the sealing means can be brought into an operating configuration in which a flow path through the enveloping element is opened for the liquid.

A biological sample collection system includes (i) a sample collection vessel having an opening for receiving a biological sample, (ii) a selectively movable valve comprising a core and a collar disposed about the core, and (iii) a sealing cap coupled to the collar and including a reagent chamber for storing a measure of sample preservation reagent. The sealing cap is configured to associate and form a fluid tight connection with the sample collection vessel. Associating the sealing cap with the sample collection vessel causes a physical rearrangement of the core relative to the collar such that a fluid vent associated with the core is placed into fluid communication with the reagent chamber, thereby permitting sample preservation reagent to pass from the regent chamber to the sample collection vessel.

A biological sample collection system includes (i) a sample collection vessel having an opening for receiving a biological sample, (ii) a selectively movable valve comprising a core and a collar disposed about the core, and (iii) a sealing cap coupled to the valve and including a reagent chamber for storing a sample preservation reagent. The valve is configured to retain the sample preservation reagent in the reagent chamber when the valve is in a closed configuration. The sealing cap is configured to associate and form a fluid tight connection with the sample collection vessel. Associating the sealing cap with the sample collection vessel causes the valve to be placed in an open configuration in which a fluid vent through the core is placed into fluid communication with the reagent chamber, thereby causing or allowing sample preservation reagent to pass from the regent chamber to the sample collection vessel.

A dispensing cap for a container includes a body portion and an integrally formed chamber for holding an additive substance. An inner wall integrally formed with the body portion defines the chamber whose open end is sealed by a chamber closure member. The chamber closure member being configured for cooperating with the inner wall and seal the chamber, wherein the body portion, the closed top end, the plunger, and the inner wall are integrally formed.

A composition for improving the health of a subject in a manner comparable to a bowl of homemade chicken soup is provided. The composition may include n-acetyl cysteine, vitamin C, and one or more carotenoids. The composition may be designed for oral consumption in a variety of dosage forms. The composition may be delivered utilizing a portable all-in-one delivery system. The delivery system may include an interconnected two piece bottle cap that together define a storage chamber that may hold the composition, and a bottle with a solvent connected to the interconnected two-piece bottle cap. The interconnected two-piece bottle cap may be in a locked or in an open state. The composition may be released into the solvent when the two-piece bottle cap interconnection is in the open state. The two-piece bottle cap may further include a delivery mechanism that switches the two-piece bottle cap interconnection from the closed state to the open state.
