Abstract

A mixing cap includes a cap body including a bottle connection part for connection to a bottleneck of a bottle, a blender container mounted in the bottle connection part corresponding to the bottleneck, a pressing shell pressable to deform elastically, and a seal member joined to the blender container and defining a storage chamber in the blender container to hold a blender. The pressing shell is elastically deformably pressable by an external force to impart a pressure to the seal member, making an opening in the seal member for allowing the blender to enter the bottle.

Claims

1. A mixing cap, comprising a cap body, said cap body comprising a bottle connection part for connection to a bottleneck of a bottle, a blender container mounted in said bottle connection part corresponding to said bottleneck, a pressing shell pressable to deform elastically, and a seal member joined to said blender container and defining a storage chamber in said blender container to hold a blender, wherein said pressing shell is elastically deformably pressable by an external force to impart a pressure to said seal member, making an opening in said seal member for allowing said blender to enter said bottle.

2. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 1, wherein aid cap body further comprises a plunger disposed in between said pressing shell and said seal member.

3. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 2, wherein said plunger member is connected to said pressing shell.

4. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 3, wherein said pressing shell comprises a first shell portion, and a second shell portion connected to said first shell portion;

said plunger member is connected to said second shell portion.

5. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 2, wherein said seal member is forcible by said plunger member to make said opening in said seal member.

6. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 2, wherein said pressing shell protrudes upwards.

7. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 2, wherein said pressing shell comprises a first shell portion, and a second shell portion connected to said first shell portion.

8. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 2, wherein said blender container comprises a seal member joining portion;

said seal member is secured to said seal member joining portion by one of bonding and snap-fit techniques.

9. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 2, wherein said seal member comprises a center body portion detachably attached to said blender container, a peripheral joining portion bonded to said blender container, and a tearing portion extending around said center body portion and joined between said center body portion and said peripheral joining portion and breakable from said peripheral joining portion.

10. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 1, wherein said pressing shell protrudes upwards.

11. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 10, wherein said pressing shell comprises a first shell portion, and a second shell portion connected to said first shell portion.

12. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 10, wherein said blender container comprises a seal member joining portion;

said seal member is secured to said seal member joining portion by one of bonding and snap-fit techniques.

13. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 10, wherein said seal member comprises a center body portion detachably attached to said blender container, a peripheral joining portion bonded to said blender container, and a tearing portion extending around said center body portion and joined between said center body portion and said peripheral joining portion and breakable from said peripheral joining portion.

14. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 1, wherein said pressing shell comprises a first shell portion, and a second shell portion connected to said first shell portion.

15. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 14, wherein said blender container comprises a seal member joining portion;

said seal member is secured to said seal member joining portion by one of bonding and snap-fit techniques.

16. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 14, wherein said seal member comprises a center body portion detachably attached to said blender container, a peripheral joining portion bonded to said blender container, and a tearing portion extending around said center body portion and joined between said center body portion and said peripheral joining portion and breakable from said peripheral joining portion.

17. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 1, wherein said blender container comprises a seal member joining portion;

said seal member is secured to said seal member joining portion by one of bonding and snap-fit techniques.

18. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 17, wherein said seal member comprises a center body portion detachably attached to said blender container, a peripheral joining portion bonded to said blender container, and a tearing portion extending around said center body portion and joined between said center body portion and said peripheral joining portion and breakable from said peripheral joining portion.

19. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 1, wherein said seal member comprises a center body portion detachably attached to said blender container, a peripheral joining portion bonded to said blender container, and a tearing portion extending around said center body portion and joined between said center body portion and said peripheral joining portion and breakable from said peripheral joining portion.

20. The mixing cap as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a protective cover capable on said cap body over said pressing shell.
