Compartmented container

A reusable compartmented container for holding a liquid and a non-liquid substance therein comprising a tubular body member having first and second end portions and a side wall portion extending therebetween defining a central opening therethrough, a floor member extending transversely across said central opening at an intermediate location along said side wall portion to separate the central opening into compartments on opposite sides thereof, said floor member and said side wall portion defining a first substantially cup-shaped compartment extending to one end of the body member for holding a liquid therein and a second compartment extending to the opposite end of said body member for receiving and holding a non-liquid substance therein, a closure member and means pivotally attaching the closure member to the second end of said body member in position extending across said second end to close said second compartment, said closure member being movable on said second end of the body member between open and closed positions, said second end of the side wall portion and said closure member having cooperatively engageable means associated therewith to limit relative movement therebetween, said closure member retaining a non-liquid substance in the second compartment when in its closed position, said first end of said body member being flared outwardly to facilitate drinking therefrom.

A reusable container dispensing device having a cup portion for holding a liquid substance and a second compartment portion for holding a non-liquid substance comprising a container body member having first and second compartments formed therein, said container body including a tube-like member having first and second ends and a side wall portion extending therebetween with a central opening extending through said container body, a floor member disposed at an intermediate location between said first and second ends of said side wall portion across said central opening separating said container body into said first and second compartments, said first compartment being adaptable to receive and hold a liquid therein, said second compartment being adaptable to receive and hold a non-liquid substance therein, a closure member movably mounted on said second end of said container body and extendable thereacross in one position thereof to form a bottom closure wall portion for said second compartment, said closure member having pivot means associated therewith connecting it to the tube-like member adjacent to the second end thereof enabling the closure member to be rotatably moved relative to the second end of said container body between open and closed positions to control access to said second compartment, and means on the body member for locating and positioning said closure member in the closed position thereof including cooperatively engageable means on the closure member and on the container body to hold said closure member in its closed position, said first end of said tube-like member being flared outwardly to facilitate drinking therefrom.
