This disclosure discloses various dispensation devices for dispensation of various volumes of content. For example, some of such content can include cream.

Dispensation devices and methods of manufacture and use thereof

A beverage ingredient pod for releasing beverage ingredients into a bottle to create a mixed beverage includes a liquid-ingredient chamber, a solid-ingredient chamber, a frangible membrane between and separating the liquid-ingredient chamber and the solid-ingredient chamber, and a rigid piercer that extends to a point toward the frangible membrane. Upon a force applied to the beverage ingredient pod, a portion of the pod collapses and drives the rigid piercer through the frangible membrane. This mixes contents of the liquid-ingredient chamber with contents of the solid-ingredient chamber and releases the mixed contents from the beverage ingredient pod into a bottle below that is filled with a liquid, creating a mixed beverage.

Beverage ingredient pod

An insert made of corrugated paper is easily assembled, uses no glue, allows shipping of glass, such as stemware, in any orientation, reduces packing material and reduces shipping costs. In addition, customers receiving the glass can easily unpack the glass and reuse the insert for storing the glass, as the insert can be opened and closed without ripping. The insert has multiple cutouts matching a profile of a bowl of the glass. U-shaped channels are formed by folding the insert along scored lines. The U-shaped channels maintain the glass away from a side of a box in which the insert is placed. The edges of the corrugated paper along the multiple cutouts envelope the bowl of the glass and remove weight and any potential shock that can be transmitted to the glass.

Fragile glass protective packaging system

A single piece of material that changes from a cuboid to a wedge includes a central panel bounded by four creases and four sidewall panels extending therefrom, respectively. A fold-over panel extends from the second sidewall panel. The third and fourth sidewall panels each define first and second portions sharing a crease angled from the respective third or fourth crease. The central panel, fold-over panel, and sidewall panels define the top, bottom, and sides of the cuboid, respectively, with an interior label. In the wedge: the second sidewall panel and the first portions extend downward from the central panel, the second portions are folded inward from the first portions, the central panel overlies and is inclined at the angle with respect to the fold-over panel, which is attached to the first sidewall panel, and the label is exterior. Each crease is pre-formed in the piece.

Packaging for shoes

A container includes a single piece of material having panels that are foldable about pre-formed crease lines into an enclosed configuration. The panels include a first base panel for supporting a garment and an insert panel extending from the first base panel and configured to be inserted within the garment. The insert panel is foldable to position the garment over the first base panel. The panels include sidewall panels, a second base panel, and a closure panel. The sidewall panels are foldable relative to the first base panel to form sidewalls of the container. The second base panel extends from one of the sidewall panels and is foldable over the first base panel. The closure panel extends from one of the panels, is foldable relative to the sidewall panels, and carries a fastener for fastening to another one of the panels to maintain the container in the enclosed configuration.

Sippy cup

A beverage dispensing system comprises a container, an attachment mechanism, and a cartridge. The container may hold a mixing solution or liquid, such as water, to be mixed with the contents of the cartridge. The attachment mechanism is generally located within the container. The attachment mechanism may comprise an engagement assembly, a piercing portion, and a valve assembly. The engagement assembly may generally receive the cartridge within the attachment mechanism. The piercing portion may generally pierce the cartridge, thereby releasing the contents of the cartridge into the container. The valve assembly may generally open upon engagement of the cartridge with the attachment mechanism. The cartridge generally engages with the attachment mechanism to open the cartridge to be dispensed into the container, thereby combining the contents of the cartridge with the liquid within the container to create a drinkable beverage.

Post-mix beverage system

Package

A thermal insulated delivery bag is configured for use with both hot and cold food delivery. The bag converts shape from a horizontal configuration to a vertical (tote) configuration which may optimize use depending on the type of food to be transported. For example, the horizontal configuration may accommodate large flat items while the vertical configuration may accommodate other items, which may be divided into separate internal sections by a divider. The bag includes a divider system to accommodate change in the size of two or more separate internal sections (e.g., segregating cold and hot items). The divider system enables movement/repositioning to change the size of the internal sections while maintaining a substantial thermal isolation of each internal section. In some embodiments, the divider may be held in a position/orientation by coupling of magnets to one or more ferrous strips in the bag.
