FIG. 35 illustrates exemplary side view representation of proposed multiple fluid storage and selective dispensing bottle with multiple labels in accordance with an embodiment of the present disclosure. - According to an embodiment, a proposed multiple fluid storage and selective dispensing bottle 100 is disclosed. The bottle 100 can include a
container 104. The container can be made up of material such as but not only limiting to High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Polypropylene (PP), Copolyester, Polyethylene Terephthalate, porcelain and glass. It would be appreciated by the person skilled in the art that the shape of the bottle is not a limiting factor for the invention hence, bottle of any shape would be utilized. - The
container 104 can have at least two open ends and apartition 106 as shown inFIGS. 1-5 . Thepartition 106 is fluidically isolating i.e. the fluid of different densities, quality and forms etc. can be placed adjacent to one another in the compartments thus formed due to thepartition 106. It would be appreciated by the person skilled in the art that since different fluids such as beverages that can include water, tea, coffee, beer, milk, juice, smoothies and soft drinks etc. Therefore, if a new product is launched in the market, that new product can be placed in the other side of the bottle 100. For example, the consumer purchases the bottle of brand that he usually purchases, and without purchasing anything extra an additional brand may be introduced to the consumer. The promo bottle 100 facilitates promoting a new product to a consumer without the need for additional shelf space or additional bottle and it gets the new product in the hands of loyal consumers faster. The promo bottle 100 can aggregate sales by a Trojan horse means, i.e. by placing a gift inside the bottle 100. The consumer purchases his brand product and receives an additional drink in the same bottle, now the consumer is introduced to the new drink. The promo bottle 100 does not need for new brands or products to compete against dominant brands for attention and shelf space. The bottle 100 itself is a marketing campaign. - For example, If Green Cola wants to enter the market and gain market share, rather than competing with Coca Cola, it can be packaged inside the promo bottle, when users purchase the Coca Cola, they get the Green Cola as well. Coca Cola does not give up its dominant shelf space in Walmart, however Green Cola has the same shelf space as Coca Cola and is now in the hands-on consumers with money willing to buy the Coca Cola brans. This facilitates Green Cola in capturing the market easily.
- In an embodiment, the open ends of the
container 104 can be opened and closed using caps 102-1, 102-2 and 103-3. The caps 102-1, 102-2 and 102-3 facilitates in keeping the contents of thecontainer 104 safe and secure against dust, and other harmful particles. Thecontainer 104 can have at least two necks 108-1,108-2 and 108-3 that are extending outwards from thecontainer 104. The necks 108-1 and 108-2 and/or 108-3 may enable the caps 102-1, 102-2 and/or 102-3 to be fixed to close the access of thecontainer 104. The cap 102-1 may be fixed to the neck 108-1 and the cap 108-2 may be fixed to the neck 108-2 and the cap 108-3 may be fixed to the neck 108-3. The size and shape of the neck and cap can be same or different. The diameter of caps also can be different. Once the bottle 100 is full the bottle 100 can contain multiple separate liquids. For example, the user can open the cap 102-1 and drink the fluid and to drink the other fluid the user can open the cap 102-2. It would be appreciated by the person skilled in the art that the person can selectively pour any drink of his/her choice from thecontainer 104. - Further, the bottle 110 can have multiple labels to determine the different type of fluids in the bottle. As clearly illustrated in
FIG. 5 , the 110-1 and 110-2 are different labels on the bottle as per the regulation to mention the respective fluid contents in the bottle. - Further, the partitions inside the bottle can be of different shape and sizes. It is possible to have multiple chambers in the multiple fluid bottle. Further, it is also possible to have horizontal and vertical chambers in the bottle. The multiple chambers in the bottle can be isolated with each other and configured to have a locking mechanism to put the fluid of one chamber without mixing with the fluid of another chamber.
