Embodiments described herein relate to articles and methods for forming liquid surface films on the interior surfaces of containers for holding one or more products comprising one or more Bingham plastic materials. Bingham plastic materials behave as a solid under no or low shear stress, and behave as viscous liquids when an applied shear stress exceeds a yield stress. In some embodiments, a container for containing a product includes an interior surface and a liquid disposed on the interior surface. Before introduction of a product into a container, the liquid may be surrounded by air. The liquid-air interface in contact with the interior surface makes a contact angle, θ.sub.os(a), with respect to the interior surface of the container, of about 0°. After a product has been introduced to the container, the liquid is at least partially covered by the product. The liquid-product interface in contact with the interior surface, makes a contact angle, θ.sub.os(p), with respect to the interior surface, of less about 60°. The subscript “o” denotes the liquid, subscript “s” denotes the interior surface, subscript “a” denotes air, and subscript “p” denotes a product. In some embodiments, the contact angle θ.sub.os(p) can be less than about 50°, less than about 40°, or less than about 30°.

This present invention is filled like any conventional jar. Contents enter in through the top of the jar till filled. The difference between this jar and a conventional jar is that when the product contained within this jar is used down to the halfway point, the top half of this jar is unscrewed from the bottom half of the jar. The empty top half is then disposed of, and it's lid is now placed on the remaining content filled bottom half of the jar.

The container of the present invention is designed to allow for easy extraction of contents that would normally adhere to the interior walls of current containers by providing a semi rigid cylindrical container having a single continuous side defining cylindrical shape, a top portion wherein at least one flexible liner is attached to the top portion of the container. The container further possesses a bottom portion wherein such bottom portion has at least one aperture.

A drain spout includes a tubular structure with threads on at least a first end for attaching to a small bunghole of a draining barrel. A process of draining material from the draining barrel includes screwing the drain spout into the small bunghole on the draining barrel. The draining barrel is aligned beside a catch barrel with the small bungholes of the barrels on the outsides and the two large bungholes side by side. The draining barrel is tilted with the drain spout towards the catch barrel and lifting the bottom of the draining barrel while inserting the second end of the drain spout into the big bunghole of the catch barrel. The draining barrel is rotated around the drain spout acting as the axis of rotation approximately 180 degrees until the lip of both barrels meet. The draining barrel is leaned back supported by the drain spout while draining.

A container for a fabric treatment composition having: (a) a container floor extending to a floor boundary, a portion of the container floor being a collection zone, and a raised portion extending inwardly within the container, at least a portion of the collection zone being located on a longitudinal axis of the container and at least a portion of the raised portion intersecting the longitudinal axis and transverse axis of the container; (b) a peripheral wall extending from the container floor; (c) a peripheral flange extending from the peripheral wall; and (d) a needle piercable membrane sealed to the peripheral flange to define an interior volume, wherein the interior volume contains less than about 100 mL of a liquid fabric treatment composition.

A fluid dispensing system is provided. The fluid dispensing system includes a container formed by a first chamber and a second chamber separated by an internal divider. A stopper element extends through each chamber via a first aperture disposed in the internal divider. A second aperture is disposed in a base of the second chamber, wherein the stopper element is used to selectively allow fluid to flow from the first chamber into the second chamber when the stopper element is in a measuring configuration. When the stopper element is in a dispensing configuration, the first aperture between is closed and the second aperture is opened to allow fluid from the second chamber to flow exterior from the container. In this manner, a measured amount of fluid from the container can be dispensed in a single movement without using a secondary measuring receptacle.

A drain spout includes a tubular structure with threads on at least a first end for attaching to a small bunghole of a draining barrel. A process of draining material from the draining barrel includes screwing the drain spout into the small bunghole on the draining barrel. The draining barrel is aligned beside a catch barrel with the small bungholes of the barrels on the outsides and the two large bungholes side by side. The draining barrel is tilted with the drain spout towards the catch barrel and lifting the bottom of the draining barrel while inserting the second end of the drain spout into the big bunghole of the catch barrel. The draining barrel is rotated around the drain spout acting as the axis of rotation approximately 180 degrees until the lip of both barrels meet. The draining barrel is leaned back supported by the drain spout while draining.

A combination can insulating sleeve and shotgunning device are provided. The device and method of use allow for rapidly emptying the contents of a can. The insulating sleeve is substantially cylindrical and has a pair of cooperating openings formed therein. A first opening is formed in the bottom portion of the sleeve and functions as a ventilating port adapted to receive a straw. A tubular cavity formed in the sleeve allows for storage of the straw. A second opening is formed in the lower sidewall of the bottom portion of the sleeve and functions as a drinking hole. The sleeve is placed over the can in the well known manner for use as a cozy. The sleeve is placed over the mouth of the can for rapid emptying, with the straw inserted into the ventilating port, the straw serving to allow air to enter the can without impeding flow from the drinking hole.

A cup is provided for a device for preparing a frozen food product from a liquid mixture with a stirring element stirring liquid mixture in the cup being cooled by a cooling unit of the device. The cup includes a cup wall enclosing a holding volume for liquid mixture and frozen food product. At the inside of the cup, the cup wall includes an inner bottom portion, a circumferential inner upright portion, and a circumferential inner transition portion extending from the inner bottom portion to the inner upright portion.
