Straw filler systems and methods

Abstract

The present disclosure is a straw filler system that has a first motor and a straw filler device. The straw filler device has a fill cap fixedly coupled to a base forming an internal cavity. The base has a plurality of external openings on its periphery for receiving a plurality of straws and holding the plurality of straws in place while being filled with a viscous material, and the plurality of external openings are in fluid communication with a plurality of internal openings within the internal cavity via a plurality of respective channels. The straw filler system further has a motor hub fixedly coupled to the first motor and rotatably coupled to the base, the motor hub configured for axially rotating the straw filler device so that centrifugal force forces the viscous material to travel from the cavity to the plurality of straws.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
