Apparatus for enclosing a filter bag, filled with a portion of coffee provided with a cup, a bellows member formed beneath the cup and separated by a perforated wall, the coffee portion being inserted within the bellows.

A disposable cup is equipped with an integrally formed straw on the inner wall thereof. A cut is disposed on the periphery of the mouth of the cup next to the bottom of the projecting portion of the straw. A bellow-like section is disposed at the bottom of the projecting portion so that the same can be randomly bent and arranged under part of the flanged rim along the mouth of the cup.

This invention relates to drinking vessels, such as cups, mugs, beakers, tumblers or glasses, whether of glass, plastics or other suitable material. The drinking vessels comprise an integral `straw` and base in the form of a hollow tube, which may be singly or multiply coiled and which is in liquid flow communication with the `glass proper`, herein termed a reservoir. Liquid in the reservoir can be sucked in the manner of a drinking straw or in the `normal` way by drinking from the rim of the reservoir.

A compartmented container ideally suited for use in conjunction with administering the sacramental elements during a communion service and for taking medication and like substances comprising a body member having first and second ends and a closed side wall portion extending therebetween, an opening extending through the body member, a floor disposed at an intermediate location along the side wall portion and extending across the central opening separating the body member into first and second storage compartments, the first compartment being substantially cup-like in form to hold a liquid therein, the second compartment being located below the first compartment for holding a communion wafer, a pill or tablet, or other non-liquid substance therein, and a closure member directly mounted adjacent to the second end of the body member and movable or removable thereon between a first position closing the second compartment and a second position enabling access thereto.

A musical feeding bottle for babies comprises a hollow body 10 for holding the baby's feed and a sound generating assembly having an electrically operated sound generating device 11,12 sealingly mounted therein. The sound generating device 11,12 is activated when the amount of light incident on a photodiode thereof exceeds a predetermined level. A shutter 21 is provided for obscuring light from the photodiode, when it is desired to deactivate the sound generating device 11,12. The shutter enables the device 11,12 to be activated and deactivated simply and remotely, without any physical connection to the device that could allow the ingress of liquid or steam liquid when the device is being washed or sterilised.
