The transporting channel runs from the storage container to a mouth end of the drinking device. The drinking device also comprises an air channel for transporting aromatized air. The air channel running runs from at least one of the at least one aroma containers to the transporting channel for drinking liquid or to the mouth end.

The present disclosure provides a chemical supply system, including a chamber, a tubing extending into the chamber, an interlock apparatus, including a fixture for fastening the tubing, and means for determining whether the tubing is fastened by the fixture.

The present disclosure describes a cup system for simultaneous delivery of contents from separated cups to a mouth of a user. The cup system includes an outer cup, an inner cup, a lid, and a cap. The outer cup includes an upper lip with a threaded surface configured to engage with a mating threaded surface of a lid. The inner cup includes an engaging lip configured to engage with a lower inner lip and configured to form a seal between the inner cup and the lid, as well as a flange located below the engaging lip that extends outward from a periphery of the inner cup. The lid includes an outer wall with a lower outer lip comprising the mating threaded surface, the mating threaded surface is configured to engage with a threaded surface. The cap includes a mating engagement feature configured to engage with an inner wall engagement feature.

Disclosed is a beverage dispensing device, characterized in that it includes a main container, including a beverage receiving cavity and a fluid suction nozzle, a secondary container adapted to be movable inside the beverage receiving cavity, including at least one hole, a component providing a communication between the secondary container and the main container, configured such that, when the secondary container is in the beverage receiving cavity, between an upper position and an open position, the at least one hole is plugged, and between the open position and a lower position, the at least one hole is not plugged.

A beverage canteen container of various materials but not limited to plastic, stainless steel, glass etc. having at least two manufactured compartments separated by a non removable partition wall which features a sleek contour body canteen design and allows the canteen container to hold two separate liquids, pureed or solid food in the canteen. The interchangeable canteen lid will have two interchangeable flip-up Y-spout designs. The first flip-up Y-spout design will allow two products to be extracted from both chambers of the canteen bottom and blend together when extracted through the single elongated tube end into the mouth. The second flip-up Split Y-spout design is split through the end of the Y, resulting in two individual elongated tubes and will provide individual product extraction. Both the Y-spout or the Split Y-spout can be attached and reattached to the top of the canteen lid by two pivotal balls with axles on opposite side of the balls. The axles also secures the spout to the top of the lid's base for opening and closing the spout. There are O-rings located around the non-removable base opening of the canteen lid and will be underneath the pivotal balls. The O-rings will seal the opening when the spouts are in an opened position for an airtight seal between the spouts and the chambers. There are vent release plugs located underneath both the Y-spout and the Split Y-spout to plug the atmosphere vent release holes located on top of the lid when the spouts are in the closed position and will provide an airtight seal when in the closed position. The canteen lid is designed to snap tightly and securely seal by an inverted J shaped peripheral section around the edge of the lid for latching and locking in an airtight position without needing a gasket, so there is no gasket for this design! There lid has two separate non-removable inner wall compartments on the underside that fits inside each chamber of the canteen container bottom with the means of ensuring proper positioning of the lid over each compartment and will assist in preventing the mixing of products from either chamber and will provide an airtight seal for each chamber. Also, the separate inner walls located underneath the lids are ingenious for ensuring that the lid will easily fit the top of each chamber while providing an extra step in ensuring separating the chambers for liquids, puree or solid foods. There are (optional) straw inserts attachment constructed underneath the lid and can be used for sipping purposes. The canteen can be turned upward for a chug a lug product extraction experience.

A drinking vessel has a drink container with a body that compensates for changes in the liquid level in the drink container. The compensating body includes an elastic component which, under the influence of weight forces of a liquid volume, enlarges its shape, i.e. the volume of the compensating body. When the acting weight forces cease, the compensating body returns to a smaller original shape. There is no need for a sliding-movement-based sealing action of the compensating body in relation to the inner walls of the drink container. Therefore, the user does not have to first put the drink container down in order for the liquid level to stabilize.

Containers are provided herein of various shapes and sizes including, in some embodiments, containers with side access ports of custom configurations and shapes. The port may be shaped like a hammer or other shapes, and may, in some embodiments have a removable cover placed thereover. In further embodiments, multi-compartment containers are disclosed that may be provided with multiple compartments

A dual-chambered drinking vessel includes a vessel body having at least one sidewall, a bottom and an open top defining an interior space, a flapper, and an actuator mechanism. The flapper is disposed within the interior space and is pivotally connected to an inner wall of the vessel body. The flapper is movable between a closed position in which the flapper divides the interior space into an upper chamber and a lower chamber and substantially prevents fluid communication between the upper chamber and the lower chamber, and an open position in which the upper chamber is in fluid communication with the lower chamber. The actuator mechanism is selectively actuatable to move the flapper from the closed position to the open position.

A system for dispensing a flowable food product from a reservoir is provided. The system includes a fitment coupled to the reservoir and a piercing tool having a handle, a neck, and a piercing section, wherein the neck interconnects the handle with the piercing section. The piercing section is configured to create an opening in the reservoir through the fitment to enable dispensing of the flowable product.
