APPARATUS FOR FACILITATING DISPENSING PAYLOADS INTO A CONTAINER

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

Generally, the present disclosure relates to a field of accessories for container closures. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to an apparatus for facilitating dispensing payloads into a container.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The field of accessories for container closures is technologically important to several industries, business organizations, and/or individuals. In particular, the use of accessories for container closures is prevalent for apparatus for facilitating dispensing payloads into a container.

Hydrogen-infused water enhances or improves the athletic performance of individuals and reduces inflammation from exercise and introduces powerful antioxidants into the bodies of the individuals. Further, hydrogen tablets are dispensed in the water to make the hydrogen-infused water. Further, the hydrogen tablets are stored in blister packs because they are required to be stored in a low-moisture environment. Further, these hydrogen tablets are required to be handled without contaminating them while they are removed from their packaging and dispensed into the bottle.

Existing techniques for dispensing payloads (tablets) in a container are deficient with regard to several aspects. Furthermore, current apparatuses do not dispense payloads directly into containers in a hygienic way. As a result, different apparatuses are needed that dispense the payloads directly into the container without contaminating the payloads. Moreover, current apparatuses do not prevent pieces of the packaging of the tablet from falling into the container when the tablet is pushed into the container by tearing the bottom aluminum layer of the packaging open. As a result, different apparatuses are needed that prevent the pieces of the packaging of the tablet from falling into the container when the tablet is pushed into the container by tearing the bottom aluminum layer of the packaging open.

Therefore, there is a need for an apparatus for facilitating dispensing payloads into a container that may overcome one or more of the above-mentioned problems and/or limitations.

Overview:

The present disclosure describes an apparatus for facilitating dispensing payloads into a container. Further, the apparatus may be used with medical-grade aluminum blister packs. Further, the positions and exterior dimensions of payloads may be customized. Further, the payloads may include but may not be limited to tablets, pills, and capsules that be made in a wide range of shapes and sizes and the blister pack mold may be made to accommodate about any size or shape of the payloads. Further, the apparatus may provide a 100% barrier against water vapor, gases, etc. Further, the apparatus may provide anti-oxygen, moisture-proof, and leak-proof conditions for the payloads. Furthermore, the apparatus may provide a high degree of thermal stability and sanitation to the payloads. Further, the payloads may be packed inside a tablet holder.

Further, the apparatus may dispense payloads packed inside a clear plastic blister pack. Further, the clear plastic may be more rigid than aluminum blister packs and may be harder to work with. The aluminum blister packs may perform better and may provide more flexibility and design options than the clear plastic blister packs. Further, pushing the tablet through the aluminum blister pack may tear open the bottom aluminum layer of the aluminum blister pack. Further, a piece of the bottom aluminum layer may fall into the bottle. However, the piece of the bottom aluminum layer may be prevented from falling into the bottle using several techniques such as scoring or coating the bottom layer, etc. Further, the apparatus may include a cap and a basket (or placing element). Further, in some embodiments, the basket clips into the cap and may turn and float up and down as designed. Further, the apparatus may include a wadding to provide a seal between the basket and the container (or bottle). Further, the container may include but may not be limited to a standard 16-ounce bottle with a 1-inch opening. Further, the container may include but may not be limited to a bottle with a larger mouth such as a Gatorade bottle. Further, the friction created by threads on the bottle may keep the basket stationary until the tablet may be pushed through the blister pack. However, the exterior dimensions will be slightly larger than a typical bottle cap. Further, the apparatus may include a wedge. Further, the cap and wedge may be clipped or sonic welded together. Further, in some embodiments, the wedge may be an integral part of the cap. Further, circular tabs may be used to lock the cap into the basket and to allow the cap to twist, pressing the payload out, without turning the basket until the circular tabs lock into their final position. Further, the basket screws on the bottle. Further, the blister pack may be placeable on top of the basket. Further, the basket may include a locking channel. Further, the locking channel may interface with the circular tabs on the cap. Further, the locking channel may secure the cap in its initial location once pressed on. Further, the locking channel may allow the cap to twist, pressing the table into the bottle, without turning the basket. Further, the locking channel may lock the cap to the basket once it is in its final position. Further, the cap may be rotated approximately 140° moving the wedge into the blister pack and pressing the tablet out and into the bottle below. Once in the final position, the cap may be locked into place allowing the basket and cap to be twisted off the bottle like a typical cap. Further, the tablet holder may be placed into the basket and then clipped into the cap. Further, the cap may include exterior dimensions identical to a typical cap and may be screwed on using a screwing mechanism that screws on a typical cap. Further, the basket may include a lip that may seal on top and bottom. Further, the top may be identical to an opening of a bottle and the bottom may be identical to a cap seal similar to an “o” ring seal. Further, the basket may fit tight enough to the opening to prevent turning. Further, the basket may not be impacted by turning the cap until a lip of the wedge catches the lip on the basket. Further, the wedge may be rotated to push the payloads out before catching and lifting the basket up with the rest of the cap. Further, the basket may be made out of a softer cap material to provide a better seal and stickiness. Further, the cap may be screwed on. Further, the basket may be disposed on the bottle with a slight interference fit between the basket and the bottle to provide friction to keep the basket in place. Further, in some embodiments, turning the cap to the first 180 degrees may not apply pressure on the basket. Further, as the cap turns and moves up, the cap turns the wedge that pushes the tablet down and out. Further, at the 180° point, the lip on the outside of the wedge may be raised up in a dead space to a point that the wedge catches the interior lip on the basket pulling the basket up and out of the bottle. Further, the cap may be screwed back on to reseal like a typical cap.

Further, in some embodiments, the cap may slide over the basket exterior. Further, the apparatus may include a base that clips into the basket to support the tablet holder. Further, the cap may clip into place using a tongue and groove system that may allow the cap to rotate about 180° before the cap starts to turn the basket when screwing it off. Further, a security ring may hold the cap in place during the cap may be tightened onto the bottle. Further, the basket may be threaded internally to help the basket to screw onto the bottle. Further, the tablet holder and the base may be clipped into the basket. Further, the lip of the base sits on the bottle opening with the tablet holder on top of it. Further, the basket presses down on both when tightened. Further, the cap may be turned 180° to open. Further, the wedge pushed the tablet down and out. Further, the cap engages the basket and screws it off.

The present disclosure describes an apparatus for facilitating dispensing a tablet into a container. Further, the disclosed apparatus may include a container cap (or cap) for containers such as bottles that utilize a removable cap. Further, the cap may retain a pill or other suitable payload separate from the contents of the container until the user twists the cap to dispense the payload into the container below. Further, the payload can be pills, capsules, tablets, vitamins, medicines, flavor pills, dye pills, or any other solid material that is desired to be deposited into a beverage contained below the cap. Further, the cap may be especially useful for single-use and disposable bottles.

The present disclosure describes an apparatus for facilitating dispensing a tablet into a container. Further, the disposable apparatus may include a tablet dispensing bottle cap. Further, the disposable apparatus may use medical-grade aluminum blister packs. Further, the tablet position and exterior dimension of the blister packs may be customized. Further, at least one payload (such as a tablet, pill, capsule, etc.) may be made in a wide range of shapes and sizes and the blister pack mold (or the blister pack) may be made to accommodate about any size or shape of the at least one payload. This may allow for optimizations far beyond working with off-the-shelf blister packs. Further, the blister pack may provide a 100% barrier against water vapor, gases, etc. Further, the blister packs may be anti-oxygen, moisture-proof, and leak-proof. Further, the blister packs may provide a high degree of thermal stability and sanitation. Further, the disposable apparatus may use an off the self-clear plastic blister pack (payload package). Further, clear plastic may be more rigid than the aluminum blister. Further, the disposable apparatus may be associated with custom aluminum blister packs (payload package) that may perform better and may provide more flexibility and design options than the traditional packs. Further, the disposable apparatus may include a cap and a basket. Further, the disposable apparatus may include a wadding configured to provide a seal between the basket and the bottle. Further, the disposable apparatus may include a wedge (as shown in FIG. 3) built into the cap. Further, the cap may include circular tabs that may be used to lock the cap into the basket and to allow the cap to twist, pressing the tablet out of the blister pack, without turning the basket until the circular tabs lock into their final position. Further, the basket may screw on the bottle. Further, the blister pack may be located on top of the basket. Further, in some embodiments, the cap may accommodate a plurality of blister packs (such as the blister pack). Further, the plurality of blister packs may be located on the top of the basket. Further, the basket may include a locking channel (as shown in FIG. 5). Further, the locking channel may interface with the circular tab on the cap. The locking channel may be configured to facilitate securing the cap in its initial location once pressed on. Further, the locking channel may allow the cap to twist, pressing the table into the bottle, without turning the basket. Further, the locking channel may facilitate locking the cap to the basket once it is in its final position.

Further, the cap may be rotated approximately 140° moving the wedge into the blister pack and pressing the tablet out and into the bottle below. Once in the final position, the cap may be locked into place allowing the basket and cap to be twisted off the bottle like a typical cap. Further, as shown in FIG. 11, in the initial position, the tablet may be in a storage position. Further, as shown in FIG. 12, in the final position, the tablet may be dispensed into the bottle. Further, in some embodiments, the disposable apparatus may be configured for dispensing the tablet comprising a hydrogen tablet for allowing an individual to drink hydrogen water. Further, the hydrogen water may be normal water that has extra hydrogen gas added to it. The added hydrogen may be tasteless and odorless. Further, the hydrogen water (or hydrogen gas-infused water) may improve athletic performance and reduce inflammation from exercise, and delivers powerful antioxidants. Further, antioxidants have immense health benefits. All these factors are increasing the demand for hydrogen water across the world. Further, the hydrogen water may provide improved endurance. Further, the hydrogen water works as a signal modulator, reduces lactic acid, increases metabolism, and supports weight loss. It also allows the individual to work out longer, more often, with less fatigue and stiffness. Further, the hydrogen water may provide increased energy. Further, the hydrogen water signals cells in a person's body to produce more natural energy (ATP) and protects the cells from oxidative stress, which can damage cells and lower energy levels. Furthermore, the hydrogen water may provide regenerative benefits by neutralizing harmful free radicals and oxidative stress, which is the leading cause of disease. Further, the hydrogen water has been proven to help regulate heart disease, and diabetes, reduce wrinkles and skin issues, and speed up wound healing. Further, the hydrogen water may support cognitive function. As a selective antioxidant, the hydrogen water has been proven to improve mental clarity, prevent cognitive illness, reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, boost mental focus and clarity, and help with mental illnesses. Further, the disposable apparatus may facilitate providing the hydrogen water product in a plastic bottle. Further, the hydrogen tablet may provide up to 12 ppm of hydrogen when dissolved in water. Further, the disposable apparatus when attached to the plastic bottle may securely dispense the hydrogen tablet in the water in the bottle allowing the user to see the making of the hydrogen in the bottle. When the cap is twisted, it activates and drops the hydrogen tablet into the bottle. As soon as the tablet hits the water it starts to infuse hydrogen into the water.

Further, in an instance, an off-the-shelf blister pack and tablet may be loaded/secured into the basket, using a food-safe adhesive. Further, the cap may be locked into place and then installed onto a bottle. The cap may be twisted causing the tablet to be successfully pressed out and into the bottle. FIG. 7 shows the basket and blister pack and the result of the tablet being pushed out of the blister pack into a bottle. Further, in some embodiments, the basket may include a receptacle. Further, the tablet may be sealed in the receptacle during the production process. Further, the receptacle may be made up of rubber around the tablet to provide the same effect as the blister pack. Further, the receptacle may be a part of the basket and not a separate part.

Further, the apparatus may include a cap, a wedge, and a basket. Further, in an embodiment, the cap and wedge may be clipped or sonic welded together. Further, the cap and the wedge may be one part. The basket may clip into the cap and may turn and float up and down as designed. Further, the reusable apparatus may include a security ring. Further, the reusable apparatus may include a tablet holder that may be placed into the basket and then clipped into the cap. Further, the tablet holder may be configured for accommodating the at least one payload. Further, in some embodiments, the tablet holder may be configured for accommodating a plurality of payloads (such as the at least one payload). Further, the cap may have the same exterior dimensions as a typical bottle cap and can be screwed on using the same machine that screws on the typical bottle cap. Further, the reusable apparatus may be depicted is for a standard 16-ounce bottle with a 1-inch (dia) opening (approx.). However, the reusable apparatus may also work on a bottle with a larger mouth such as a Gatorade bottle. Further, the basket may be made out of a softer cap material to provide a better seal and to make it more “sticky”. Further, when the cap may be screwed on, there is a slight interference fit between the basket and the bottle. This provides the friction to keep it in place. As the cap may be turned the first 180°, the cap may not apply pressure on the basket. Further, as the cap moves up, the cap turns the wedge which pushes the tablet down and out. At the 180° point, the lip on the outside of the wedge has raised up (in the dead space) to the point that it catches the interior lip on the basket pulling it up and out of the bottle. The cap may be screwed back on to reseal like the typical bottle cap. Further, the lip of the basket may seal on the top and bottom. Further, the top may mimic the bottle opening and the bottom may mimic the cap seal. Further, it may be similar to an O-ring seal. Further, the seal and interference fit may be tight enough to prevent turning. Further, the basket may not be impacted by the cap turning until the lip of the wedge catches the lip of the bottle. Further, the reusable apparatus may include a dead space allowing the wedge to be rotated pushing the tablet (or pill) out before catching and lifting the basket up with the rest of the cap.

Further, the apparatus may work better for smaller mouth bottles and relies on the friction created by the threads on the bottle to keep a basket stationary until the tablet is pushed through the blister pack. However, the exterior dimensions may be slightly larger than a typical bottle cap. Further, the apparatus may include a cap and a wedge clip that may be sonic welded together. Further, the apparatus may include a base that clips into the basket to support the tablet holder. The cap slides over the basket exterior and may clip into place using a tongue and groove system that will allow the cap to rotate about 180° before it starts to turn the basket when screwing it off. The apparatus may include a security ring that may hold the cap in place when it is tightened onto the bottle. Further, the interior of the basket may be threaded and screwed onto the bottle. Further, the tablet holder and the base may be clipped into the basket. Further, a lip of the base sits on the bottle opening with the tablet holder on top of it. The basket may press down on both when tightened. Further, when the cap may be turned 180° (to open) the wedge pushed the tablet down and out. Then the cap may engage the basket and screw it off.

Further, in some embodiments, the tablet holder may be configured for accommodating a plurality of payloads (such as the at least one payload).
