Claims22
A multiple chamber container, the container comprising:
- a flexible, outer surrounding wall extending between an upper end and a lower end of the container;
- a divider between the upper end and the lower end of the container, the divider separating a first chamber from a second chamber;
- a first opening positioned on the upper end of the container in communication with the first chamber;
- and
- a second opening positioned on the lower end of the container and in communication with the second chamber.
A method of using a multiple chamber container, the multiple chamber container having a flexible outer surrounding wall extending between a first end of the container and an opposing second end of the container, a divider positioned within the outer surrounding wall and spaced from the first and second ends of the container to define first and second chambers, the first chamber containing a first fluid and the second chamber containing a second fluid, the first and second ends of the container each having an opening selectively reclosable with a cap, the method comprising:
- removing the cap from the opening of the first end of the container;
- 0
- removing the first fluid from the first chamber of the container through the opening;
- replacing the cap on the opening of the first end of the container;
- removing the cap from the opening of the second end of the container;
- removing the second fluid from the second chamber of the container through the opening;
- and
- replacing the cap on the opening of the second end of the container.
The method of using the multiple chamber container of clam 18, wherein the step of removing the first fluid from the first chamber of the container through the opening includes the step of arranging the container such that the opening is facing generally downward.
The method of using the multiple chamber container of clam 19, wherein the step of removing the second fluid from the second chamber of the container through the opening includes the step of arranging the container such that the opening is facing generally downward.
The method of using the multiple chamber container of clam 20, wherein the step of removing the first fluid from the first chamber of the container through the opening includes the step of squeezing the flexible outer surrounding wall to decrease the volume of the first chamber.
