Claims

1. A receptacle for maintaining liquid or gaseous substances, or both, and allowing instantly mixing them if needed, comprising a main container in which there is attached a secondary container comprising one or more apertures and a tearable elastic vessel held inside it and comprising a pressurized first liquid or gaseous substance, wherein said main container is capable of being filled with a second liquid or gaseous substance, and wherein said first and second liquid or gaseous substances are capable of being mixed by rupturing said tearable vessel; wherein said receptacle further comprises a rupturing rod having a sharp edge, wherein said rupturing rod is movable placed inside the main container such that its sharp edge is introduced into said secondary container via one of its apertures operatively for rupturing tearable vessel and mixing the gaseous or liquid substances, if so desired.

2. The receptacle according to claim 1, wherein the tearable vessel is an inflatable vessel sealably filled with the first gaseous or liquid substance.

3. The receptacle according to claim 1, wherein the main container is a drinking can capable of being sealably closed by top cover while containing the liquid or gaseous substances thereinside .

4. The receptacle according to claim 3, wherein the upper end of the rupturing rod protrudes via an opening provided in the top cover, or in the bottom or side walls, of the main container .

5. The receptacle according to claim 4, further comprising a seal provided in the opening provided in the top cover, or in the bottom or side walls, of the main container, said seal sealably surrounds a portion of rupturing rod passing through it.

6. The receptacle according to claim 4, further comprising a flexible seal attached to the inner wall of the main container, wherein a portion of said flexible seal is passed through the opening provided in the top cover, or in the bottom or side walls, of the main container, and covers the upper end of the rupturing rod.

7. The receptacle according to claim 1, further comprising a guiding tube attached over one of the apertures of the secondary container, wherein the rupturing rod is slidably passed through said guiding tube.

8. The receptacle according to claim 3, wherein the drinking can comprises a movable tongue adapted to be moved into said receptacle when needed for forming an opening in the top cover, and wherein the upper end of the rupturing rod is placed beneath said tongue such that it is pushed down towards the tearable vessel whenever said drinking can is opened.

9. The receptacle according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein the size of the apertures provided in the secondary container is adapted to prevent tearable vessel from leaving the interior of said secondary container after it is ruptured. - 18 -

10. A method for mixing gaseous or liquid substances comprising: providing a main container in which there is attached a secondary container having one or more apertures, said secondary container comprises an elastic tearable vessel sealably comprising a compressed first gaseous or liquid substance; wherein the main container further comprises a rupturing rod movably placed therexnside; filling said main container with a second gaseous or liquid substance; and whenever needed, introducing said rupturing rod into the secondary container via one of its apertures; rupturing said tearable vessel thereby discharging said first gaseous or liquid substance contained in it.
