Abstract
Varied embodiments of a container/dispenser having a multi-chamber bellows member having a plurality of collapsible bellows chambers allowing more than one substance to be contained within the container and simultaneously dispensed when a sufficient axial force is exerted on a platform to compress the bellows member forcing flowable materials from each chamber. In an alternative embodiment, the present invention discloses a retrofit multi-chambered bellows container, which may be adapted to a standard caulking tube container.
Claims18
A dispenser for flowable material comprising:
- a container body having a first end and second end, wherein the container body has a cross-sectional area and cross-sectional void, wherein said container has a long axis and short axis;
- a multi-chambered bellows member disposed within said container body, wherein said bellows member is shaped to define;
- a collapsible first bellows chamber, said first bellows chamber having a first end and a second end, wherein said first bellows chamber has a volume, wherein said volume can be changed by compression, wherein first bellows chamber has an opening which defines a first chamber outflow tract, wherein said multi-chambered bellows member is further shaped to define a collapsible second bellows chamber, said second bellows chamber having a first end and a second end, wherein said second bellows chamber has a volume, wherein said volume can be changed by compression, wherein second bellows chamber has an opening which defines a second chamber outflow tract;
- wherein said multi-chambered bellows member is shaped to define a platform recess;
- a platform shaped to fit within platform recess, wherein an axially directed force exerted on said platform may move the platform axially and compress said multi-chambered bellows member.

A dispenser for flowable materials, comprising:
- a first end container body having a first end threaded rod disposed within said container body, a first end platform having a threaded aperture, wherein said first end platform threadably engages said threaded rod, wherein said first end platform is disposed on said first end rod, wherein said first end container body is shaped to define a first end container tip;
- a second end container body having a second end threaded rod disposed within said container body, a second end platform having a threaded aperture, wherein said second end platform threadably engages said threaded rod, wherein said second end platform is disposed on said second end rod, wherein said second end container body is shaped to define a second end container tip;
- an adjoining member affixed to first rod and second rod, wherein a user, desiring products in first container body holds second container body stationary and rotates first container body to move first platform in the direction of first container tip, wherein a user, desiring products in second container body holds first container body stationary and rotates second container body to move second platform in the direction of second container tip.
A dispenser system for flowable materials, comprising:
- a first container body;
- a first threaded rod disposed within container body;
- a first rotatable handle affixed to said first threaded rod;
- a first platform having a central threaded aperture threadably engaging said first threaded rod, wherein rotation of the first threadable handle moves the first platform axially;
- a second container body;
- a second threaded rod disposed within container body;
- a second rotatable handle affixed to said second threaded rod;
- a second platform having a central threaded aperture threadably engaging said second threaded rod, wherein rotation of second threadable handle moves the second platform axially.

A dispenser for flowable material comprising:
- a cylindrical container body having a first end and second end, wherein the container body has a diameter and diametrical void, wherein said cylindrical container has a long axis and short axis;
- wherein the second end is shaped to define a container pattern;
- a collapsible first bellows container, disposed within the cylindrical container body, said first bellows having a first end and a second end, wherein said first bellows has a volume, wherein said volume can be changed by compression, wherein said first bellows first end is open;
- a collapsible second bellows container, disposed within the cylindrical container body, said second bellows having a first end and a second end, wherein said second bellows has a volume, wherein said volume can be changed by compression, wherein said second bellows first end is open;
- a disc shaped to define a threaded central aperture, wherein said disc has an area, wherein the area of the disc is less than the cylindrical container's diameter;
- a threaded rod having a first end and second end, wherein threaded rod is disposed within container body and passes through threaded central aperture, wherein said disc and said threaded rod have a threadable mating engagement;
- twistable handle, wherein said handle is affixed to threaded rod's second end, wherein the handle has a first end and second end, wherein said first end is shaped to define a handle pattern, wherein said container pattern and handle pattern are mateable.
