Coffee maker

An ADC coffee maker has a brewed coffee container and a cold water compartment surrounding part of the brewed coffee container located in a single housing. The coffee maker housing includes an upper housing member made from a thermoplastic material and a lower housing made from a thermoplastic material and forming the lower part of the brewed coffee container, such lower part being closed by a stainless steel warmer plate. A cold water fill port is located adjacent the upper end of the brewed coffee container. A uniquely constructed brew basket is provided and a uniquely constructed lid that covers the brewed coffee container and the fill port is also provided.

ADC coffee maker

A container having two compartments for keeping two materials in separated relation. When it is desired that the two materials be intermixed, an actuator carrying a pair of piercing pins is inserted into ports of the compartments until membranes blocking exit of the materials from their respective compartment are punctured. When these membranes are punctured the materials are received at a mixing chamber where the materials are mixed.

Container for mixture of materials

A compartmented and collapsible container for sterile components which has at least one separate compartment for each component, yet will permit the intermixing of the components upon the breaking of a frangible member which separates the compartments. The compartmented container is specifically constructed for use with two solutions which are normally incompatible when mixed. The container herein described permits the two incompatible solutions to be sterilized in a disposable, flexible container. At the time of usage, the two materials can be readily intermixed in the same container and administered therefrom, such as with the usual intravenous administration equipment. An important feature of the container is a frangible member which is sealed to the container in a unique manner between the compartments, yet is readily fractured to permit the free flow of materials between the compartments.
