Abstract
An elongate device for dispersing a paste-like or sticky substance in a liquid for consumption, injection, or topical use has an integral, outwardly directed hook at a first end for suspending the elongate device from the rim of a container such as a glass, cup, bottle or the like into the interior of the container. The elongate device has one or more scale markings at least on an inner face spaced from the second end of the device for indicating an amount of paste-like substance adhered to a second end portion between a scale marking and the second end.
Claims14
A combination of a container which contains a paste-like or sticky substance and a device for dispersing a quantity of the paste-like or sticky substance to dissolve in a liquid, comprising:
- a first container of mineral pitch resin;
- and
- a device for dispersing a measured quantity of the mineral pitch resin from the first container to dissolve in a liquid, the device comprising an elongate member having an outer face, an inner face, and opposite first and second ends;
- an outwardly directed hook at the first end of the device for suspending the elongate member from the rim of a second container into the interior of the second container;
- the elongate member having a metered collection portion adjacent the second end configured for collection of an amount of mineral pitch resin from the first container, whereby the collected amount is adhered to the collection portion prior to dispersing of the collected mineral pitch resin into a liquid in the second container;
- and
- the elongate member having a scale marking at least on the inner face and spaced a predetermined distance from the second end for indicating an amount of mineral pitch resin adhered to the collection portion between the scale marking and second end.
A device for dispersing a paste-like or sticky substance to dissolve in a liquid, comprising:
- an elongate member having an outer face, an inner face, and opposite first and second ends;
- the elongate member having a metered collection portion adjacent the second end configured for insertion into a container of a paste-like or sticky substance so that an amount of paste-like substance adheres to the collection portion;
- an outwardly directed hook at the first end of the elongate member for suspending the elongate member from the rim of a second container holding a quantity of liquid into the interior of the second container;
- the elongate member having a scale marking at least on the inner face and spaced a predetermined distance from the second end for indicating an amount of paste-like substance adhered to the collection portion between the scale marking and second end;
- and
- an extension member secured to the hook for suspending the elongate member into the second container to a depth greater than a length of the elongate member, wherein the extension member is selected from the group consisting of a chain, a cord, an elastic band, and a string.
A method of dispersing a measured quantity of paste-like or sticky substance in a liquid, comprising:
- inserting a metered end portion at one end of an elongate dispersing device into a container of paste-like or sticky substance so that a quantity of the substance adheres to the metered end portion, the paste-like or sticky substance comprising a mineral pitch resin;
- submerging the metered end portion holding the mineral pitch resin in a quantity of liquid in a second container;
- and
- allowing the mineral pitch resin to disperse and dissolve into the liquid, whereby any non-soluble solid contaminants contained in the substance fall to the bottom of the second container.
A method of dispersing a measured quantity of paste-like or sticky substance in a liquid, comprising:
- inserting a metered end portion at one end of an elongate dispersing device into a container of paste-like or sticky substance so that a quantity of the substance adheres to the metered end portion;
- associating a hook at the opposite end of the elongate dispersing device to the metered end portion with an extension member, wherein the extension member is selected from the group consisting of a chain, a cord, an elastic band, and a string;
- lowering the device into a second container holding a quantity of liquid using the extension member;
- submerging the metered end portion holding the paste-like or sticky substance in the quantity of liquid in the second container;
- and
- allowing the paste-like or sticky substance to disperse and dissolve into the liquid;
- whereby any non-soluble solid contaminants contained in the substance fall to the bottom of the second container.
