Container and method for adding a mixture component
First Claim
1. A container, comprising:
- a chamber with a base configured for receiving a mixture component; and
an adapter configured to fasten the chamber to a second container, the adapter comprising;
a first connector configured to connect to the chamber, the first connector comprising a substantially helical guide track and a sliding projection, the sliding projection being movable in a guided manner along the guide track and in at least in the area of an end of the helical guide track, a step forms a resistance in relation to the movement of the sliding projection along the guide track;
a second connector configured to connect to the second container;
a flow channel for the mixture component extending between the first connector and the second connector; and
a blade element in the flow channel with a blade facing toward the chamber for opening the base, the first connector enabling a rotation of the chamber relative to the adapter and to the blade, wherein the blade is positioned so as to sever the base of the chamber along an edge of the base upon rotation of the chamber and wherein the chamber and the adapter are non-detachably connected to one another.

Abstract
The invention relates to a container and to the use thereof. The container has a chamber with a base for receiving a mixture component and an adapter for fixing the chamber to a second container. The adapter is connected to the chamber via a first connector and has a second connector to connect to the second container. Additionally, the adapter forms a flow channel for the mixture component extending between the first and the second connector. The adapter also has a blade element in the flow channel comprising a blade facing the base of the chamber in order to open the base. The first connector allows the chamber to rotate relative to the adapter and to the blade, said blade designed to cut through the base of the chamber along the edge of the base while the chamber rotates.

14. A container, comprising:
-
a chamber with a base configured for receiving a mixture component; and an adapter configured to fasten the chamber to a second container, the adapter comprising; a first connector configured to connect to the chamber, the first connector comprising a substantially helical guide track and a sliding projection, the sliding projection being movable in a guided manner along the helical guide track and a second guide track that is shorter in length than the helical guide track, the second guide track and the helical guide track meeting at an acute angle proximate their ends; a second connector configured to connect to the second container; a flow channel for the mixture component extending between the first connector and the second connector; and a blade element in the flow channel with a blade facing toward the chamber for opening the base, the first connector enabling a rotation of the chamber relative to the adapter and to the blade, wherein the blade is positioned so as to sever the base of the chamber along an edge of the base upon rotation of the chamber and wherein the chamber and the adapter are non-detachably connected to one another. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A container, comprising:
-
a chamber with a base configured for receiving a mixture component; and an adapter configured to fasten the chamber to a second container, the adapter comprising; a first connector configured to connect to the chamber, the first connector comprising a substantially helical guide track and a sliding projection, the sliding projection being movable in a guided manner along the guide track, at least one end of the guide track comprising a stop for the sliding projection; a second connector configured to connect to the second container; a flow channel for the mixture component extending between the first connector and the second connector; and a blade element in the flow channel with a blade facing toward the chamber for opening the base, the first connector enabling a rotation of the chamber relative to the adapter and to the blade, wherein the blade is positioned so as to sever the base of the chamber along an edge of the base upon rotation of the chamber and wherein the chamber and the adapter are non-detachably connected to one another. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31)
