Abstract:
A two-compartment container for separately storing two components, mixing the components and dispensing a formulation formed by mixing the two components comprising:(a) a housing having an opening at each of its top and bottom ends and a neck portion located between the top and bottom ends dividing the housing into top and bottom sections;(b) a top sealing member communicating with the top end opening of the housing for sealing the top end opening of the container;(c) a displaceable member having a partition wall at a first end which is configured and adapted to form a seal when it engages the neck portion, a manipulable portion adapted and configured to be controlled by a user to move the displaceable member, and at least one connecting member extending between the partition wall and the manipulable portion; and(d) a closure member sealing the bottom end opening;wherein the displaceable member is movable between a first position where the partition wall is located within a neck portion forming a seal and a common wall which divides the housing into two separate fluid-tight compartments and a second position where the partition is removed from the neck portion so that the two sections can intercommunicate.
