[00227] It will be appreciated that for simplicity and clarity of illustration, elements shown in the figures have not necessarily been drawn to scale. For example, the dimensions of some of the elements may be exaggerated relative to other elements for clarity. Further, where considered appropriate, reference numerals may be repeated among the figures to indicate corresponding or analogous elements.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [00228] In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the invention. However, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention may be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well- known methods, procedures, and components have not been described in detail so as not to obscure the present invention. Although embodiments of the present invention are not limited in this regard, the terms "plurality" and "a plurality" as used herein may include, for example, "multiple" or "two or more". The terms "plurality" or "a plurality" may be used throughout the specification to describe two or more components, devices, elements, units, parameters, or the like.

[00229] Any reference to a prevention of movement should be read as a prevention of a substantial movement. A substantial movement upwards may cause the bottle insert to be extracted from the bottle. A substantial movement downwards may cause the bottle insert to escape the neck of the bottle and be position in another region of the bottle. A substantial movement may be a movement of magnitude that exceeds a certain fraction (for example between 5-90%, especially between 30-60%) of the length of the bottle insert. A substantial movement may be a movement of magnitude that exceeds a certain fraction (for example between 5-90%, especially between 30-60%) of the length of the beck of the bottle.

[00230] Embodiments of the present invention may relate to a bottle insert or desiccant stent for reducing the volume of a bottle. Throughout the application the terms bottle insert, desiccant stent, an insert or a stent may be used interchangeably and have the same meaning. The insert may include a neck and a body. The neck may be configured to fit tightly against the inside of the neck of the respective bottle. The rim of the neck of the insert may be below (e.g., slightly below) or substantially aligned with the rim of the neck of the bottle, to allow fitting of an induction seal. The body of the insert may have a volume and may be placed inside the bottle to reduce the free volume or unfilled space, also referred to as headspace, of the bottle by the volume of the body.

[00231] Embodiments of the present invention may further relate to a bottle insert or desiccant stent with a chamber or a plurality of chambers for storing a substance. The one or more chambers may be adapted to store any desired material or substance, e.g., an absorbing material, for example, at least one or a combination of: desiccants, oxygen scavengers or absorbers, or any desired substance for adsorbing unwanted gases and organic molecules. While the chambers disclosed herein are described as usable for storing absorbing materials, this feature is not-limiting and the chambers disclosed herein may be used for storing other materials or substances, as required by the application. According to embodiments of the present invention, connecting the absorbing materials to the bottle through the insert may prevent any possibility of confusion by the user, thus preventing consumption of the absorbing material. Other modules may be attached or loaded onto the insert, e.g., an Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag or near field communication (NFC) tag.

[00232] Embodiments of the present invention may further relate to a two stage bottle insert or a two stage bottle stent for storing substances. According to embodiments of the present invention the two stage bottle insert may include at least two chambers, where at least one chamber stores a substance usable or active during the shelf life of a product and at least a second chamber stores a substance usable or active after opening the bottle, when the bottle is in use. The absorbing material may be kept sealed until the bottle is opened for consumption to extend in-use life of the stored product.

[00233] According to embodiments of the present invention, chambers of the inserts or two stage bottle inserts may be separated from the interior or inner volume of the bottle by either impermeable material or permeable material, as disclosed herein. Using a permeable partition, separation or membrane may enable storing the substance in the confined chamber, while enabling the substance to be active and absorb undesired gases and humidity that may pass through the permeable partition. The permeable partition separation or membrane may be made of any suitable substance allowing gases and humidity to pass through, including but not limited to, paperboard or cardboard, various types of plastics or polymers, etc.

[00234] According to embodiments of the present invention, the bottle may be filled or adapted to be filled with pills, tablets or powders. For example, the bottle may be a medicine bottle for keeping pills. Other examples may include a bottle for tablets of food

supplements, candies, sugar substitutes, etc. Embodiments of the present invention may be adapted to fit to practically any bottle, in any desired volume. Fitting the insert into the bottle may be done by any applicable method including, but not limited to, press fit, ultrasonic soldering and gluing.

[00235] According to embodiments of the present invention, the insert may include a slide and an opening configured to allow controlled disposing of tablets, e.g., dispensing of one tablet at a time. Some embodiments of the present invention may include an opening with no slide, or with a tunnel to guide tablets towards the opening of the bottle. While in some of the embodiments presented hereinbelow the opening may be depicted as round and concentric with the opening of the bottle, this is not mandatory, and the opening may have any desirable shape and may not necessarily be concentric with the opening of the bottle. [00236] Any of the bottle inserts and/or bottles illustrated in the drawings may or may not include one or more skid prevention elements.

[00237] Any of the bottle inserts and/or bottles illustrated in the drawings may or may not store one or more materials - for example may include one or more chambers, may include a solid desiccant, and the like

[00238] Reference is now made to Figs. 1-6 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a bottom view, a side view, a rear view, a top view and an isometric view, respectively, of a first example of a bottle insert 100 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that a second side view of insert 100 is identical to the side view depicted in Fig. 3.

[00239] Insert 100 may include a neck 110 and a body 120. Neck 110 may be configured to fit against the inside of a neck of a bottle (e.g., bottle 1320 shown in Figs. 13-16). It should be readily understood that while neck 110 is depicted as round, neck 110 may have other shapes that may fit the inside of the neck of the bottle. Rim 112 of neck 110 of the insert 100 may be below or substantially aligned with a rim of a neck of the bottle (e.g., rim 1340 of neck 1350 of bottle 1320 shown in Figs., 13-19), to provide a sealing surface for an induction seal. The sealing surface may allow fitting of an induction seal over the bottle, to hermetically seal the bottle (e.g., induction seal 1300 in Figs. 13-19). Rim 112 may refer to the top surface of neck 110, adapted to be fitted near or at the opening of the bottle.

[00240] Body 120 of insert 100 may have a volume and may be placed inside the bottle to reduce the free volume of the bottle by the volume of body 120. Reducing the free volume of the bottle by the volume of body 120 may allow a large surface area for the exterior of the bottle while keeping the interior volume of the bottle relatively small. The relatively large surface area of the exterior of the bottle may be used for placing a large label, which may enable using a desired font size and/or insertion of large amount of data. Keeping the interior volume of the bottle relatively small may prevent excessive tablet movement and breakage as well as reducing the headspace of the bottle and thus reducing exposure to undesired conditions, such as humidity and oxidation.

[00241] In the embodiment depicted in Figs. 1-6 a bottom 150 of body 120 distant from neck 110 of insert 100 is substantially flat, however, this feature is non-limiting and bottom 150 may have any desired form, e.g., bottom 150 may be wavy, concave or convex, etc. According to some embodiments, bottom 150 may have a circular perimeter to allow easy closure of bottom 150, for example, with a circular permeable closing element, to allow gases and humidity to flow there through. [00242] According to embodiments of the present invention, insert 100 may include a slide 130 and an opening 140 configured to allow controlled dispensing of tablets, e.g., one tablet at a time. The combination of the volume reduction body 110 with slide 130 and opening 140 is advantageous over existing volume reduction inserts since it enables controlled disposing of tablets without having to remove insert 100.

[00243] Body 120 of insert 100 may be hollow to reduce material and weight of insert 100. The hollow space of body 120 may be used as a chamber 1330 (Figs. 13-14) for holding or storing any desired substance that needs to be placed inside bottle 100. Thus, desiccants and oxygen scavengers may be placed inside the bottle, but may be held by insert 100 and kept separated from the tablets. The chamber may include or may have porous exterior or a permeable partition to allow gasses and humidity flow there though, and ease of assembly. It is desirable to attach absorbing materials such as desiccants and oxygen scavengers to the bottle, in order to prevent the user from confusing between them and the tablets. However, attaching desiccants and oxygen scavengers directly to the bottle may be complex relatively to attaching desiccants and oxygen scavengers to insert 100, or placing them in a chamber of insert 100 since the access to the inside of the bottle may be less convenient than the access to insert 100 (before insert 100 is placed inside the bottle). Other modules may be attached or loaded onto insert 100, e.g., an RFID and/or an NFC tag.

[00244] Reference is now made to Figs. 7-12 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a bottom view, a side view, a rear view, a top view illustration, and a schematic isometric view, respectively, of a second bottle insert 700 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that a second side view of insert 700 is identical to the side view depicted in fig. 9. Second bottle insert 700 may be substantially similar to bottle insert 100. Elements of insert 700 that are similar to insert 100 may be given the same reference numerals and may not be described again. Bottom 750 of insert 700 may be substantially conic. Substantially conic bottom 750 may enable easy insertion of insert 700 into the bottle, even when the bottle is already filled with tablets. Second bottle insert 700 may include slide 730 and body 720 that are similar to slide 130 and body 120.

[00245] Reference is now made to Figs. 13-14 which are schematic illustrations of a cross-sectional view of insert 100 assembled inside bottle 1320, according to embodiments of the present invention. Insert 100 may be assembled inside bottle 1320 so that rim 112 of neck 110 of insert 100 is below or substantially aligned with a rim 1340 of neck 1350 of bottle 1320. Rim 1340 may refer to the outer surface of neck 1350. In Figs. 13-14 an induction seal 1300 is fitted to the sealing surface provided by rim 1340 of neck 1350 of bottle 1320. Induction seal 1300 is closed in Fig. 13 and slightly opened in Fig. 14. Also visible in Figs. 13-14 is chamber 1330 located in the hollow space inside body 120.

[00246] Reference is now made to Figs. 15-16 which are schematic illustrations of a cross-sectional view of insert 700 assembled inside bottle 1320 with tablets, according to embodiments of the present invention. Insert 700 may be assembled inside bottle 1320 similarly to insert 100. Also visible in Figs. 15-16 is chamber 1530 located in the hollow space inside body 720 and RFID and/or NFC tag 1540.

[00247] Reference is now made to Figs. 17, 18 which are schematic illustrations of a cross-sectional view of insert 1700 assembled inside bottle 1320, and to Fig. 19 which is an enlarged view of marked area K, according to embodiments of the present invention. Insert 1700 may be assembled inside bottle 1320 so that bottom surface 1730 of neck 1710 of insert 1700 may abut rim 1340 of neck 1350 of bottle 1320. According to some

embodiments appropriate sealing may be needed between bottom surface 1730 of neck 1710 and rim 1340 of neck 1350. Top surface 1720 of neck 1710 of insert 1700 may provide a sealing surface for induction seal 1300. In Figs. 17-18 an induction seal 1300 is fitted to the sealing surface provided by top surface 1720 of neck 1710. Induction seal 1300 is closed in Fig. 17 and slightly opened in Fig. 18. Insert 1700 may be similar to insert 700 in other aspects. For example, bottom 750 of insert 1700 may be substantially conic.

[00248] Reference is now made to Figs. 20-21 which are schematic illustrations of a cross-sectional view of insert 1800 assembled inside bottle 1320, according to embodiments of the present invention. Similarly to insert 1700, insert 1800 may be assembled inside bottle 1320 so that neck 1710 of insert 1800 may abut rim 1340 of neck 1350 of bottle 1320. A top surface 1720 of neck 1710 of insert 1800 may provide a sealing surface for induction seal 1300. Induction seal 1300 is closed in Fig. 20 and slightly opened in Fig. 21. Insert 1800 may be similar to insert 100 in other aspects. For example, bottom 150 of insert 1800 may be substantially flat, or have any desired form, e.g., bottom 150 may be wavy, concave or convex, etc.

[00249] Reference is now made to Figs. 22-27 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a top view, a bottom view, two isometric views, and a cross-sectional view along section line AA, respectively, of a fifth bottle insert 2200 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the rear view and the two side views of insert 2200 are identical to the front view depicted in Fig. 22. Reference is also made to Fig. 28 which is a schematic illustration of a cross- sectional view of insert 2200 assembled inside bottle 2800, according to embodiments of the present invention. [00250] Insert 2200 may include a neck configured to fit against the inside of a neck of a bottle, e.g., bottle 2800. It should be readily understood that while insert 2200 is depicted as round, insert 2200 may have other shapes that may fit the inside of the neck a selected bottle. When placed into a bottle, rim 2212 of insert 2200 may be below or substantially aligned with a rim of a neck of the bottle, e.g., rim 2840 of neck 2850 of bottle 2800, to provide a sealing surface for an induction seal. The sealing surface may allow fitting of an induction seal (e.g., similar to induction seal 1300 in Figs. 13-19). Rim 2212 may refer to the top surface of insert 2200. Insert 2200 may include an opening 2414 configured to allow dispensing of tablets. In some embodiments, insert 2200 may include a funnel 2416 to guide tablets towards the opening of bottle 2800. In some embodiments, opening 2414 may be configured to allow controlled dispensing of tablets.

[00251] Insert 2200 may include at least one chamber 2700 for storing a substance. Thus, the substance may be placed inside bottle 2800, but may be held by insert 2200 and kept separated from the tablets. Chamber 2700 may include or may have permeable or porous partition 2710 adapted to be located between the interior of the bottle and the chamber to allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through. Other modules may be attached or loaded onto insert 2200, e.g., an RFID/NFC tag.

[00252] Reference is now made to Figs. 29-34 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a top view, a bottom view, two isometric views, and a cross-sectional view along section line BB, respectively, of a sixth bottle insert 2900 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the rear view and the two side views of insert 2900 are identical to the front view depicted in Fig. 29. Reference is also made to Fig. 35 which is a schematic illustration of a cross- sectional view of insert 2900 assembled inside bottle 2800, according to embodiments of the present invention. Insert 2900 have a similar functionality as insert 2200.

[00253] Reference is now made to Figs. 36-41 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a top view, a bottom view, two isometric views, and a cross-sectional view along section line EE, respectively, of a seventh bottle insert 3600 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the rear view and the two side views of insert 3600 are identical to the front view depicted in Fig. 36. Insert 3600 have a similar functionality as insert 2200. 0 Reference is now made to Figs. 42-47 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a top view, a bottom view, an isometric view, a cross- sectional view along section line CC, and a cross- sectional view along section line DD, respectively, of a two stage bottle insert 4200 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the rear view and the two side views of insert 4200 are identical to the front view depicted in Fig. 42. Reference is also made to Fig. 48 which is an exploded view of parts of insert 4200 (including permeable top seal 4226) and induction seal 4210, to Figs. 49 and 50 which are schematic illustration of a cross-sectional views of insert 4200 assembled inside bottle 2800, and to Fig. 51 which is an exploded view of parts of an example of a two stage bottle insert assembled in a bottle according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00254] Insert 4200 may include a neck configured to fit against the inside of neck of a bottle, e.g., neck 2850 of bottle 2800. It should be readily understood that while insert 4200 is depicted as round, insert 8200 may have other shapes that may fit the inside of the neck a selected bottle. When placed into a bottle, rim 4212 of insert 4200 may be below or substantially aligned with a rim of a neck of the bottle, e.g., rim 2840 of neck 2850 of bottle 2800, to provide a sealing surface for an induction seal for bottle 2800 bottle (e.g., similar to induction seal 1300 shown in Figs. 13-19 and 20-21). Rim 4212 may refer to the top surface of insert 4200. Insert 4200 may include an opening 4214 configured to allow dispensing of tablets. In some embodiments, insert 4200 may include a funnel 4236 to guide tablets towards the opening of bottle 2800. In some embodiments, opening 4214 configured to allow controlled dispensing of tablets.

[00255] Insert 4200 may include two stage chamber system including a plurality of chambers, including at least one shelf-life chamber 4710 and at least one in-use chamber 4720. The chambers may be separated by impermeable partitions 4260. While in the embodiment depicted in Figs. 42-51 the partition is vertical, e.g., parallel to the plane of section CC, this is not-limiting. In some embodiments impermeable partitions 4260 may be horizontal e.g., perpendicular to the planes of sections CC and DD. As used herein, the terms vertical and horizontal may refer to their ordinary meaning with reference to bottle 2800 (with any of the inserts disclosed herein, e.g., as shown in Figs. 28, 35 and 51), placed according to its ordinary use on its bottom surface.

[00256] A substance may be placed inside bottle 2800, but may be stored by insert 4200 and kept separated from the tablets. Shelf-life chamber 4710 may include or may have permeable or porous partition 4216 adapted to be located between the interior of bottle 2800 and shelf-life chamber 4710, to allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle 2800 to shelf-life chamber 4710. Thus, shelf-life chamber 4710 may be adapted for storing substances that may be usable or active regardless of whether bottle 2800 is sealed or not. The substances placed inside shelf-life chamber 4710 may be active throughout the entire life span of the bottle. However, it is expected that with time, the substances in shelf-life chamber 4710 may become saturated and less active.

[00257] In-use chamber 4720 may also store substances, similar or different than those stored in shelf-life chamber 4710. In-use chamber 4720 may include or may have an impermeable exterior 4218 facing the interior of bottle 2800, to block or not allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle 2800 to in-use chamber 4720. However, in-use chamber 4720 may have permeable or porous partition 4226. In some embodiments partition 4226 may be located at a top surface of insert 4200. Permeable or porous partition 4226 may be adapted to be kept sealed by, for example, induction seal 4210.

[00258] Induction seal 4210 may be placed on in-use chamber 4720 after filling in-use chamber 4720 with the required substances and possibly after filling bottle 2800 with tablets (or with any other items as required). Thus, in-use chamber 4720 may be kept sealed, and the substance inside in-use chamber 4720 may be kept fresh and active as long as induction seal 4210 is not removed.

[00259] After induction seal 4210 is removed, permeable or porous partition 4226 may face the interior of bottle 2800, to allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle 2800 to in-use chamber 4720. Thus, in-use chamber 4720 may be adapted for storing substances that may be usable or active when bottle 2800 is opened for use, e.g., when induction seal 4210 is removed.

[00260] According to some embodiments, a single induction seal, e.g., induction seal 4210, may be used to seal both in-use chamber 4720 and bottle 2800. According to some embodiments, a first induction seal, e.g., induction seal 4210, may be used to seal in-use chamber 4720 and a second induction seal, e.g., induction seal 1300, may be used to seal bottle 2800. Other modules may be attached or loaded onto insert 4200, e.g., an RHD/NFC tag.

[00261] Reference is now made to Figs. 52-56 which are schematic illustrations from a front view, a top view, a bottom view, an isometric view and a cross-sectional isometric view along section line FF, respectively, of a second two stage bottle insert 5200 according to embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that the rear view and the two side views of insert 5200 are identical to the front view depicted in Fig. 52. Two stage bottle insert 5200 may be generally similar to two stage bottle insert 4200, and similar components may not be described again. The main difference between insert 5200 and insert 4200 is the design of the partition between the shelf-life chamber and the in-use chamber. While partition 4260 is vertical, partition 5260 is horizontal. Partition 5260 separates in-use chamber 5720 from shelf-life chamber 5710. It should be readily understood that each of chambers 5710 and 5720 may be further partitioned to a plurality of chambers.

[00262] Shelf-life chamber 5710 may include or may have permeable or porous partition 5216 adapted to be located between the interior of bottle 2800 and shelf-life chamber 5710, to allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle 2800 to shelf-life chamber 5710. Thus, shelf-life chamber 5710 may be adapted for storing substances that may be usable or active regardless of whether bottle 2800 is sealed or not. The substances placed inside shelf-life chamber 5710 may be active throughout the entire life span of the bottle. However, it is expected that with time, the substances in shelf-life chamber 5710 may become saturated and less active.

[00263] In-use chamber 5720 may also store substances, similar or different than those stored in shelf-life chamber 5710. In-use chamber 5720 may include or may have an impermeable exterior 5218 facing the interior of bottle 2800, to block or not allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle 2800 to in-use chamber 5720. However, in-use chamber 5720 may have permeable or porous partition 5226. In some embodiments partition 5226 may be located at a top surface of insert 5200. Permeable or porous partition 5226 may be adapted to be kept sealed by, for example, induction seal, e.g., induction seal 4210. Induction seal 4210 may be placed on in-use chamber 5720 after filling in-use chamber 5720 with the required substances and possibly after filling bottle 2800 with tablets (or with any other items as required). Thus, in-use chamber 5720 may be kept sealed, and the substance inside in-use chamber 5720 may be kept fresh and active as long as induction seal 4210 is not removed.

[00264] After induction seal 4210 is removed, permeable or porous partition 5226 may face the interior of bottle 2800, to allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle 2800 to in-use chamber 5720. Thus, in-use chamber 5720 may be adapted for storing substances that may be usable or active when bottle 2800 is opened for use, e.g., when induction seal 5210 is removed.

[00265] According to some embodiments, a single induction seal, e.g., induction seal 4210, may be used to seal both in-use chamber 5720 and bottle 2800. According to some embodiments, a first induction seal, e.g., induction seal 4210, may be used to seal in-use chamber 5720 and a second induction seal, e.g., induction seal 1300, may be used to seal bottle 2800. In some embodiments, insert 5200 may include a funnel to guide tablets towards the opening of bottle 2800. In some embodiments, insert 5200 may be configured to allow controlled dispensing of tablets. Other modules may be attached or loaded onto insert 5200, e.g., an RFID/NFC tag.

[00266] Reference is now made to Fig. 57 which is a schematic isometric view illustration of two stage example of a bottle insert 5200 assembled inside bottle 2800, and to Fig. 58 which is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of two stage example of a bottle insert 5200 assembled inside bottle 2800, according to embodiments of the present invention. In the embodiment presented in Figs. 57-58, top surface or rim 5212 of insert 5200 is aligned with rim or top surface 2840 of bottle 2800. Thus, a single induction seal, e.g., induction seal 1300 may be used to seal both in-use chamber 5720 and bottle 2800.

[00267] Reference is now made to Fig. 59 which is a schematic isometric view illustration of two stage example of a bottle insert 5200 assembled inside bottle 2800, and to Fig. 60 which is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of two stage example of a bottle insert 5200 assembled inside bottle 2800, according to embodiments of the present invention. In the embodiment presented in Figs. 59-60, top surface or rim 5212 of insert 5200 is below or slightly below rim or top surface 2840 of bottle 2800. Thus, according to this embodiment, two induction seals may be used, a first induction seal, e.g., induction seal 4210, may be used to seal in-use chamber 5720 and a second induction seal, e.g., induction seal 1300 may be used to seal bottle 2800. Both assembly options, e.g., the single induction seal option presented in Figs. 57-58, and the double induction seal option presented in Figs. 59-50 are suitable for insert 4200 as well.

[00268] The terms "desiccant", "hygroscopic", "gaseous scavenger" are used in an interchangeable manner. Any reference to a desiccant should be applied mutatis mutandis to a hygroscopic material and/or should be applied mutatis mutandis to a gaseous scavenger or any material or element that is capable of absorbing any gas and/or humidity.

[00269] Figure 61 is a schematic isometric view illustration of bottle insert 6200 and bottle

6100.

[00270] The bottle insert has a body 6002 and protuberances such as snap nodes 6004 and 6006 that protrude from the body 6002.

[00271] There may be any number of protuberances - one, two, three and more. The protuberances may be evenly spaced from each other and/or unevenly spaced from each other.

[00272] The protuberances may entirely surround the body 6002 (for example- form a ring) - but may only partially surround body 6002 (as illustrated in figure 61). The shapes and/or size of the protuberances may differ from the shapes and sizes illustrated in figure 61. [00273] For example - the protuberances may have a rectangular shape, a circular shape, an elliptical shape, and the like.

[00274] Yet for another example - while figure 61 illustrates a protuberance that has a rounded exterior that is parallel to the upper part 6003 of the body 6002 - the protuberances may have exteriors that are not parallel to the body.

[00275] For example - the protuberances may have an exterior that is inclined - for example have a top that is more distant from body than the bottom - or vice-verse.

[00276] An upper part 6003 of the body may be wider than the lower part 6005 of the body - forming a step or a stopper 6008 that may assist in preventing the bottle insert from downward slipping.

[00277] The interior of neck 6106 of bottle 6100 has a step or stopper 6104 that may contact step or a stopper 6008 of the bottle insert 6200 thereby assisting in preventing the bottle insert from downward slipping.

[00278] The interior of neck 6106 also includes an upper protuberance 6105 or an upper narrower portion in which the interior of the neck is narrower than another part of the neck - so that when the insert bottle is inserted into the bottle the one or more protuberance (6004) of the bottle insert is caught between the step or stopper 6104 and upper protuberance so that the bottle insert does slip from the bottle- either into the bottle or outside the bottle. A recess 6107 may be formed between 6104 and upper protuberance 6105. The recess may be deformable, may be created before the insertion of the bottle insert or due to the insertion of the bottle insert.

[00279] Any other upper and lower limiting features of the bottle may trap or otherwise position the bottle insert at a predefined position in relation to the bottle.

[00280] The bottle may be temporarily or non-temporarily deformed when the bottle insert is forced into its position.

[00281] Bottle insert 6200 may or may not include at least one chamber for storing one or more substances. Thus, the substance may be placed inside bottle 6100, but may be held by bottle insert 6200 and kept separated from the tablets.

[00282] Figure 62 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6209 assembled inside a bottle 6100, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00283] The bottle insert 6209 includes a chamber 6010 and protuberance 6004.

[00284] Chamber 6010 has a porous or apertured bottom. The porous or appretured bottom may be partially sealed by permeable or porous partition 6012 that adapted to be located between the interior of the bottle and the chamber to allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through.

[00285] Figure 62 also illustrates a substrate such as a desiccant 6011 that is positioned within chamber 6010. Non-limiting examples of desiccant include Silica Gel, molecular sieve, Oxygen scavengers or an active material that is configured to create a positive pressure within the chamber.

[00286] Figure 62 also illustrates the neck 6106 of the bottle 6100, recess 6107 formed in the neck, a step or barrier 6104 and a seal such as induction seal 6100 that seals the bottle 6100. The induction seal 6110 may or may not contact the bottle insert 6209.

[00287] Figure 63 is a schematic isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6201 and a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00288] Bottle insert 6200 can be made of a desiccant and at least one additional material.

[00289] The at least one additional material may be a filling material or/or a shape- forming material such as but not limited to a polymer or any other material that may be shaped to form the bottle insert.

[00290] The desiccant and the at least one additional material may be mixed to form bottle insert 6201.

[00291] The mixture of the desiccant and the at least one additional material may be injected and/or compressed to form the bottle insert 6201.

[00292] The bottle insert 6201 may be homogenous or non-homogenous.

[00293] The bottle insert 6201 may or may not include a chamber.

[00294] The bottle insert 6201 may include an exterior part that includes the mixture of the desiccant and the at least one additional material and an interior part that may or may not include the desiccant.

[00295] The manufacturing process of a bottle insert that is made of a mixture of the desiccant and the at least one additional material - especially a bottle insert that does not require filling an internal chamber with a substance - is much faster and less costly than the manufacturing process of a bottle insert that has one or more internal chambers that should be filled with a desiccant and then partially sealed with a porous partition.

[00296] Figure 63 illustrates the bottle insert 6201 as including step or stopper 6008 and protuberances such as snap nodes 6004 and 6006 that protrude from the body 6002.

[00297] These protuberances and the step or stopper are optional.

[00298] Bottle insert 6201 may have any shape and/or size as long as it can be positioned within a predefined location with the bottle in which the bottle insert is inserted, inserted in. [00299] For example - bottle insert 6201 may have any shape and/or size that fits an interior of a predefined part of the bottle (such as but not limited to neck or other part).

[00300] Bottle insert 6201 may directly or indirectly (via one or more interfacing elements) contact an inner part of the bottle- when inserted into the bottle.

[00301] Figure 64 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6202 assembled inside a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00302] Bottle insert 6202 contacts neck 6106 of the bottle. Neck 6106 includes recess 6107 in which a protuberances of the bottle insert may be inserted, and protuberances 6105.

[00303] Bottle insert 6202 includes:

a. Step or a stopper 6008.

b. Protuberances 6004 such as snap nodes. The protuberances 6004

c. A first chamber such as shelf-life chamber 6030.

d. A second chamber such as in-use chamber 6024.

e. A partition 6026 that separates the in-use chamber 6024 from the shelf-life chamber 6030.

f. Permeable or porous partition 6032.

g. Permeable or porous partition 6022.

h. Bottle insert sealing element 6020.

[00304] It should be readily understood that each of shelf-life chamber 6030 and in-use chamber 6024 may be further partitioned to a plurality of chambers.

[00305] Partition 6026 may be horizontal or may be oriented in other orientation

(including but not limited to a vertical orientation).

[00306] Shelf-life chamber 6030 may have a porous or apertured bottom 6034. The porous or appretured bottom 6034 may be partially sealed by permeable or porous partition 6032 that adapted to be located between the interior of the bottle and the interior of the shelf-life chamber.

[00307] Permeable or porous partition 6032 allows humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of bottle to shelf-life chamber 6030. Thus, shelf-life chamber 6030 may be adapted for storing substances that may be usable or active regardless of whether the bottle is sealed or not. The substances placed inside shelf-life chamber 6030 may be active throughout the entire life span of the bottle. However, it is expected that with time, the substances in shelf-life chamber 6030 may become saturated and less active.

[00308] In-use chamber 6024 may also store substances, similar or different than those stored in shelf-life chamber 6030. [00309] Bottle insert 6202 may include or may have an impermeable exterior 6021 facing the interior of the bottle, to block or not allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of the bottle to in-use chamber 6024.

[00310] However, in-use chamber 6024 may have permeable or porous partition 6022.

[00311] In some embodiments permeable or porous partition 6022 may be located at a top surface of the bottle insert.

[00312] Permeable or porous partition 6022 may be adapted to be kept sealed by, for example, bottle insert sealing element 6020 and/or the induction seal 6110.

[00313] Bottle insert sealing element 6020 may be placed on in-use chamber 6024 after filling in-use chamber 6024 with the required substances and possibly after filling the bottle with tablets (or with any other items as required) or at any time- by any party.

[00314] Thus, in-use chamber 6024 may be kept sealed, and the substance inside in-use chamber 6024 may be kept fresh and active as long as bottle insert sealing element 6020 is not removed.

[00315] After bottle insert sealing element 6020 is removed, permeable or porous partition 6022 may allow humidity, oxygen and other gases pass through from the interior of the bottle to in-use chamber 6024. Thus, in-use chamber 6024 may be adapted for storing substances that may be usable or active when the bottle is opened for use, e.g., when bottle insert sealing element 6020 is removed.

[00316] According to some embodiments, a single induction seal, e.g., induction seal 6110, may be used to seal both in-use chamber 6024 and the bottle.

[00317] According to some embodiments, a first induction seal, e.g., bottle insert sealing element 6020, may be used to seal in-use chamber 6024 and a second induction seal, e.g., induction seal 6110, may be used to seal the bottle. In some embodiments, the bottle insert may include a funnel to guide tablets towards the opening of the bottle. In some

embodiments, the bottle insert may be configured to allow controlled dispensing of tablets.

[00318] Any part of any bottle insert illustrated in the specification and/or any bottle insert illustrated in the specification can be made of a desiccant and at least one additional material. The at least one additional material may be a filling material or/or a shape-forming material such as but not limited to a polymer or any other material that may be shaped to form the bottle insert.

[00319] For example - any chamber of any of the bottle inserts illustrated in the application can be made of a desiccant and one or more other materials - and especially made of mixture of a desiccant and one or more other materials. [00320] Yet for another example - any chamber of any of the bottle inserts illustrated in the application can be replaced by a hygroscopic element that is made of a desiccant and one or more other materials - and especially made of mixture of a desiccant and one or more other materials. The hygroscopic element may be hollow or may not be hollow.

[00321] The hygroscopic element may be solid and may differ from a powder.

[00322] The hygroscopic element may be configured to change a color (or other property) of at least one of its parts - as a function of the humidity it absorbs.

[00323] The hygroscopic element can be connected to the cover of the bottle.

[00324] Figure 65 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6203 assembled inside a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00325] The first chamber of figure 64 (such as a shelf-life chamber) was replaced (in figure 65) by a hygroscopic element that is made from a mixture of a desiccant and one or more additional materials.

[00326] Bottle insert 6203 contacts neck 6106 of the bottle.

[00327] Bottle insert 6203 includes:

a. Step or a stopper 6008.

b. Protuberances such as snap nodes (not shown).

c. A hygroscopic element 6040 that is made of a mixture of a desiccant and one or more additional materials.

d. A second chamber such as an in-use chamber 6024. The in use-chamber has a holding element 6028 that extends from the in-use chamber in order to hold hygroscopic element 6040 to the in-use chamber 6028.

e. Permeable or porous partition 6022.

[00328] The holding element 6028 can be of any shape and size and is an optional element. The holding element may include an aperture formed in chamber 6024, may be replaced by a rugged surface of chamber 6024, may be provided in combination of any part or aperture of chamber 6024.

[00329] In-use chamber 6024 can be filled with a substance such as a desiccant.

[00330] The bottle is sealed by induction seal 6110.

[00331] Figure 66 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6204 assembled inside a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00332] Bottle insert 6204 contacts neck 6106 of the bottle.

[00333] Bottle insert 6000 includes:

a. Step or a stopper 6008. b. Protuberances such as snap nodes (not shown).

c. Hygroscopic element 6040 that is made of a mixture of a desiccant and one or more additional materials.

d. A second chamber such as an in-use chamber 6024. The in use-chamber has a holding element 6028 that extends from the in-use chamber in order to hold element 6040 to the in- use chamber 6028.

e. Permeable or porous partition 6022.

f. Bottle insert sealing element 6020.

[00334] In-use chamber 6024 can be filled with a substance such as a desiccant.

[00335] The bottle is sealed by induction seal 6110.

[00336] In figure 66 the first chamber (such as a shelf-life chamber) was replaced by hygroscopic element 6040 that is made from a mixture of a desiccant and one or more additional materials. In addition, the second chamber (such as in-use chamber) is filled with another hygroscopic element 6044 that is made of a desiccant and/or with a mixture of a desiccant and at least one additional material. The composition of hygroscopic element 6040 may be the same as the composition of the other hygroscopic element 6044. Alternatively - the composition of the hygroscopic element 6040 may differ from the composition of the other hygroscopic element 6044.

[00337] A solid hygroscopic element 6040 does not require additional sealing elements for preventing it from being spilled (that may be required in the case of powder).

[00338] Holding element 6028, the other hygroscopic element 6044 and the hygroscopic element 6040 may be manufactured by co-injection molding. The other hygroscopic element

6044 may be injected after (before or at the same time as) the injection of the hygroscopic element 6040. Any of these elements may be manufactured by another manufacturing process.

[00339] Any chamber of any bottle insert illustrated in the specification may be further partitioned to a plurality of chambers.

[00340] Figure 67 illustrates a non-limiting example of a bottle insert 6025 in which a chamber such as an in-use chamber or a shelf-life chamber is partitioned to additional chambers. Each chamber out of chambers 6052 and 6054 is an arc-shaped chamber.

[00341] The number of arc-shaped chambers may exceed two.

[00342] Different arc-shaped chambers may be filled with different materials, may be filled with the same material, may be temporarily sealed with different seals, may be temporarily sealed with the same seal, may be followed or preceded by the same permeable or porous partitions, may be followed or preceded by different permeable or porous partitions, may have porous and/or non-porous bottoms, may be have porous and/or non- porous sidewalk and/or may have porous and/or non-porous tops.

[00343] For example - chamber 6052 may be filled with scavengers for absorption and chamber 6054 may be filled with a desiccant.

[00344] Figure 68 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6206 assembled inside a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00345] Bottle insert 6206 is made of a hygroscopic material and has a curved interior 6061 that faces a symmetry axis of the bottle and reduces the inner volume of the bottle.

[00346] Bottle insert 6206 has a variable width.

[00347] The bottle insert 6206 may have other shapes and sizes - for example - linear and curved cross sections of bottle inserts are denoted 6064.

[00348] The bottle has a neck 6106 and the exterior of the bottle insert 6206 fits to the neck 6106.

[00349] The neck 6106 has a step or stopper 6104 that may contact step or a stopper (not shown) of the bottle insert thereby assisting in preventing the bottle insert from downward slipping. The bottle neck may also include an upper limiting feature that may limit upward movement of the bottle insert. The neck has a recess 6107 in which a protuberance may be inserted.

[00350] Figure 68 also illustrates a seal such as induction seal 6110 that seals bottle 6100.

[00351] Figure 69 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6207 assembled inside a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00352] Bottle insert 6207 is made of a hygroscopic material (and another material such as a polymer, a filling material and the like), has a circular bottom 6084, a radially symmetrical sidewall 6082, a step or stopper 6083 that may contact a step or a stopper (not shown) of the bottle, and an opening 6086 that is formed in the circular bottom 6084 to enable a passage therethrough of a pill (or multiple pills).

[00353] Bottle insert 6207, once inserted in the bottle, reduces the internal volume of the bottle.

[00354] Figure 69 also illustrates a seal such as induction seal 6110 that seals the bottle.

[00355] Any of the bottle inserts may include one or more protuberances that may increase the friction between the interior of the bottle and the bottle insert. These one or more protuberances may prevent the slipping of the bottle insert within the bottle. These protuberances may have any shape and/or any size. [00356] Figure 70 is a schematic isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6208, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00357] Bottle insert 6208 has three groups of protuberances - although figure 70 illustrates only two groups of protuberances - group 609 and group 6092'.

[00358] Each one of groups 609Γ and 6092' includes an array of six arc-shaped fins that are parallel to each other.

[00359] The number of fins may differ from six.

[00360] At least two fins of an array may be oriented to each other (non-parallel).

[00361] The fins may not be arc-shaped.

[00362] One group of protuberances may differ from another group of protuberances by size, number of fins, shape of fines, size of fins, and the like.

[00363] The fins may have any cross section - including a linear cross section, a curved cross section and/or a combination of a linear and curved cross section.

[00364] Reference number 6093 illustrates various cross sections of a fin - including a half-circle cross section, a step shaped cross section, a triangle cross section, a sawtooth cross section and a cross section that includes a linear part and curved part.

[00365] Figure 71 is a schematic cross-sectional isometric view of an example of a bottle insert 6209 assembled inside a bottle, according to embodiments of the present invention.

[00366] Bottle insert 6209 contacts neck 6106 of the bottle.

[00367] Bottle insert 6209 may include:

a. Step or a stopper 6008.

b. Protuberances such as snap nodes.

c. A hygroscopic element 6094 that is made of a mixture of a desiccant and one or more additional materials. The hygroscopic element 6094 may be used during the shelf life period.

d. A second chamber such as an in-use chamber 6092. The in use-chamber is filled with a solid desiccant 6095.

e. In-use chamber sealing element 6096.

[00368] The bottle is sealed by induction seal 6110.

[00369] Once or after the induction seal 6110 is removed, the hygroscopic element 6094 and the in-use chamber sealing element 6096 are removed - and the solid desiccant 6095 starts to operate.

[00370] While the previous figures illustrate a bottle insert that contacted the neck of the bottle - the bottle insert may contact any part of the bottle - directly or indirectly. [00371] Figure 72 illustrates a bottle insert 6210 that does not contact the neck of the bottle - but is supported by one or more legs 6213 that contact the bottom of the bottle. Bottle insert 6210 defined an opening 6211 for allowing passage of pills therethrough. It should be noted that the bottle insert may contact (directly or indirectly) multiple parts of the bottle. For example - the bottle insert may contact the neck of the bottle and contact (via interfacing elements) the bottom of the bottle.

[00372] Figure 73 illustrates a bottle insert 6210 that does not contact the neck of the bottle - but is supported by one or more legs 6213 that contact the sidewalls of the bottle - either by contacting a step 6104 (or any other protuberance) or by contacting a recess 6109 formed in the sidewall.

[00373] Figure 74 is an example of cross sectional view of a bottle insert that is inserted into a bottle. The beck 6106 is sealed by seal 6100. The bottle insert includes a chamber 6902. The top of the chamber 6092 has a handle 7002. The top of the handle 7002 may contact the seal 6100 or may not contact the seal. The chamber is illustrated as a line that is positioned at the center of the top of the chamber and does not reach the periphery of the chamber. Any other handle may be used. The handle may be held by a user after the seal is removed in order to extract the bottle insert from the bottle. The lower part 7004 of the chamber extends towards the bottle insert and sit on step 6104 formed in the neck of the bottle 6106.

[00374] The chamber also includes supporting elements 7006 that support permeable partition 6032 that exposes the absorbing material 7008 to the interior of the bottle.

[00375] The chamber 6092 may be replaced by a solid absorbing element and/or may store the solid absorbing element.

[00376] The chamber 6092 may be replaced by multiple chambers.

[00377] The chamber 6092 may be shaped as a disc or may have any other shape.

[00378] The chamber 6092 is removably coupled to the neck of the bottle.

[00379] It has been found that having a bottle insert that has a different shape than the interior of the neck of the bottle may enable to insert the bottle insert into the bottle while deforming the neck of the bottle - while allowing the upper part of the neck (the part of the neck that is higher than the bottle insert) to partially shrink or otherwise propagate inwards

(propagate towards its initial position - before the insertion of the bottle insert)- to assist in forming a stopper that prevents upward movements of the bottle insert. The upper part of the neck may return to its initial position or may not return to its initial position. For example - the radius of the upper part of the neck may return to its initial radius or may not return to its initial radius.

[00380] Figures 75 and 76 illustrates two phases of an insertion process. Figure 75 illustrates an intermediate phase during which the bottle insert 7010 and its protuberances (for example 6044) are not fully inserted in the neck 6106 of the bottle. Figure 76 illustrates a final phase during which the bottle insert 7010 and its protuberances (for example 6044) are fully inserted in the neck 6106 of the bottle. At the final phase the upper part of the neck 6016 moves inwards and partially covers protuberances 6044 - thereby forming an upward movement stopper.

[00381] Figures 77 and 78 illustrates two phases of an insertion process of a body insert that has one or more protuberances having an elliptical exterior shape of cross section.

[00382] Figure 77 illustrates an intermediate phase during which the bottle insert 7020 and its protuberances are not fully inserted in the neck 6106 of the bottle. Figure 78 illustrates a final phase during which the bottle insert 7020 and its protuberances are fully inserted in the neck 6106 of the bottle.

[00383] Figure 78 is an example of a cross sectional view of a bottle insert, an imaginary circle and a radius of an upper part of a neck of a bottle after the insertion of the bottle insert.

[00384] A maximal circumference of the bottle insert 7010 (which is a horizontal circumference that includes the one or more protuberances) is smaller than a circumference of an imaginary circle 7030 having a radius (Ri 7031) that equals a maximal distance between a center of symmetry (7011) of the body and an exterior of a protuberance of the one or more protuberance.

[00385] The radius Rh 7040 of an upper part of a neck of a bottle after the insertion of the bottle insert is smaller than radius Ri 7031.

[00386] Figure 79 is an example of a cross sectional view of a bottle insert, and a radius of an upper part and a lower part of a neck of a bottle after the insertion of the bottle insert.

[00387] Bottle insert 7010 has a radius Ri 7031 (distance between the center of symmetry of the body and a protuberance).

[00388] The radius Ri 7031 is smaller than Ri 7040 and exceeds RI 7042 (the radius of the lower part of the neck (below the bottle insert). RI may exceed Rh 7040.

[00389] RI and Ri should not be taken along a step or stopper of the neck of the bottle.

[00390] Figure 80 is a cross section of a bottle insert that is inserted into a bottle. This figure illustrates a phase in which the bottle insert is only partially inserted into the bottle. The bottle insert includes chamber 6010, permeable or porous partition 6012, and one or more protuberances 6004. The cross section passes through protuberances (left side of the bottle insert) and through a side wall 6009 of the chamber (right side of the bottle insert). The neck 6106 of the bottle includes recess 6107 and protuberance 6105.

[00391] Figure 81 is a cross section of a bottle insert that is inserted into a bottle. This figure illustrates a phase in which the bottle insert is fully inserted into the bottle. The bottle insert includes chamber 6010, permeable or porous partition 6012, and one or more protuberances 6004. The cross section passes through protuberance 6004 (left side of the bottle insert) and through a side wall 6009 of the chamber (right side of the bottle insert). The neck 6106 of the bottle includes recess 6107 and protuberance 6105.

[00392] When fully inserted the recess 6017 surrounds the protuberance 6004 and the left upper part (6109) of the neck is slightly tilted to the left - it did not fully return to its initial position. The right upper part (6108) fully returned to its initial position (before the insertion of the bottle insert).

[00393] Figure 82 illustrates a bottle insert with upper protuberances 6004 that are positioned near the top of the body 6002 and are aimed to prevent upward movements of the bottle insert (when inserted in a bottle). Lower movements may be prevented using the body itself or any other part of the body insert.

[00394] Figure 83 illustrates a bottle insert that includes body 6002 and upper protuberances 6007 that are positioned near the top of the body 6002 and are aimed to prevent upward movements of the bottle insert (when inserted in a bottle). The bottle insert also includes lower protuberances 6007' that are positioned below the upper protuberances 6007 and are aimed to prevent upward movements of the bottle insert (when inserted in a bottle).

[00395] Figure 84 illustrates a bottle insert and figure 85 illustrates the bottle insert while being inserted into the bottle.

[00396] The bottle insert includes body 6002, one or more protuberances 6004, chamber 6010 and permeable or porous partition 6012.

[00397] The one or more protuberances 6004 are aimed to prevent upward movements of the bottle insert (when inserted in a bottle).

[00398] The neck of the bottle includes a step or a stopper 6104 that extends inwards and supports the lower part of the bottle insert. The chamber of the bottle insert is wider that the space defined by step of stopper 6104. [00399] Figure 86 is a cross section of a neck 6106 of a bottle. The neck includes step or stopper 6104, recess 6107 and protuberance 6105.

[00400] Figure 87 is a cross section of a neck 6106 of a bottle and of a protuberance 6004 that is insert in recess 6107 wherein the upper part of the neck resumes its initial position - or at least is located at the same distance from the center of the bottle (as the initial distance).

[00401] Figure 88 is a cross section of a neck 6106 of a bottle and of a protuberance 6004 that is insert in recess 6107 wherein the upper part of the neck does not resume its initial position - it is located at a larger distance from the center of the bottle (in comparison to the initial distance). The upper part of the neck is tilted outwards.

[00402] Figure 89 illustrates a bottle insert and that is inserted into a bottle.

[00403] The bottle insert includes body 6002 and one or more protuberances 6004. The absorbing material is not shown for brevity of explanation.

[00404] The one or more protuberances 6004 are aimed to prevent upward movements of the bottle insert (when inserted in a bottle).

[00405] The neck of the bottle includes an inward inclined stopper 6104 that extends inwards and supports the lower part of the bottle insert. The lower part to the bottle insert extends outwardly and contacts stopper 6104 so that stopper 6104 prevents downward movements of the bottle insert.

[00406] Figure 90 illustrates a bottle insert that is inserted into a bottle.

[00407] The bottle insert includes body 6002 and one or more protuberances 6004. The absorbing material is not shown for brevity of explanation.

[00408] The one or more protuberances 6004 are aimed to prevent upward movements of the bottle insert (when inserted in a bottle).

[00409] The neck of the bottle includes an inward inclined stopper 6104 that extends inwards and supports the lower part of the bottle insert. The lower part to the bottle insert does not extend outwardly - but it contacts stopper 6104 so that stopper 6104 prevents downward movements of the bottle insert.

[00410] Figure 91 illustrates method 9100. Figure 91 may be executed by an automatic or semi-automatic insertion system.

[00411] Method 9100 may include an initial step 9110 of providing a bottle insert that include an absorbing material for absorbing gas or humidity. The absorbing material may be in the form of a powder that may be included in a chamber or may be in a non-power form - for example the absorbing power may be a solid absorbing material. [00412] Step 9110 may be followed by step 9120 of inserting the bottle insert into the bottle to place the bottle insert at a certain position in a neck of the bottle. Step 9120 include deforming at least one of (a) the bottle insert and (b) a certain part of a neck of the bottle. When positioned at the certain position, the bottle insert is prevented from substantially moving upwards and from substantial moving downwards.

[00413] Method 9100 may involve inserting any bottle insert illustrated in any figure of the pervious figured within any bottle of any one of the previous figures and in the following figures.

[00414] The one or more protuberances may be shaped to form an external thread or a continuous or non-continuous spiral or helix.

[00415] Method 9100 may include rotating the bottle insert so that an external thread of the bottle insert will move along an internal thread of the neck of the bottle. The rotating may or may not include deforming at least one out of the neck of the bottle and the bottle insert. Alternatively, the insertion may be executed without any substantial deformation.

[00416] Figure 92 illustrates a bottle 9210 and a bottle insert 9200. The bottle insert 9200 includes a body 9202 and external thread 9204. Bottle 9210 includes a neck 9212 that has internal thread 9214 and an external thread 9216.

[00417] The external thread 9204 of the bottle insert may fit the internal thread 9214 of the neck of the bottle.

[00418] Accordingly - the bottle insert may be inserted into the bottle by rotation.

[00419] The bottle insert may be rotated until reaching a desired position within the bottle.

[00420] Figures 93 and 94 illustrate the bottle insert 9200 and the neck 9212 of the bottle.

[00421] In figure 93 the rotation of the bottle insert involves only rotating the bottle insert while the internal thread 9214 meshes with the external thread 9204.

[00422] In figure 94 the bottle insert is rotated until the external thread 9204 extends below (see region 9217) the internal thread 9214 - and the bottle insert deforms (9218) the neck of the bottle. The deformation of the exterior of the neck of the bottle is optional.

[00423] Figure 95 illustrates a continuous external thread 9204 and a non-continuous arrangement of protuberances 9204' that are arranged along a spiral path.

[00424] Figures 96, 97 and 98 illustrates various phases in the insertion of the bottle insert into the bottle.

[00425] A first mechanical element 9240 may hold or otherwise support bottle 9230. A second mechanical element 9242 may hold the bottle insert 9232. The first and//or second mechanical elements 9240 and 0242 may introduce a relative movement between the bottle and the bottle insert thereby inserting the bottle insert into the bottle to a predefined position. The movement may be linear, not-linear and may include a rotation.

[00426] The first and second mechanical elements may be an arm, a support element, a holding mechanism that may hold the bottle and/or the bottle insert while introducing relative movement. The movement may be applied using one or more motor, engine, gear, movement mechanism, and the like.

[00427] Figure 99 is a cross sectional view of a bottle insert 9250 that is inserted within bottle, the bottle neck 9254 that is deformed due to the insertion of the bottle insert and an imaginary circle 9252.

[00428] The imaginary circle delimits three outmost parts of the three protuberances (outmost parts- points that are at the biggest distance from the center of symmetry of the body of the bottle insert).

[00429] The circumference of the bottle neck is smaller than the imaginary circle.

[00430] The ratio between the circumference of the imaginary circle and the first shape may range between 1.02 and 1.15.

[00431] It should be noted that the imaginary circle may encircle any three parts of the bottle insert - even when the number of protuberances is one, two or more than three.

[00432] Imaginary circle 9252 is defined around the three most outside features of the bottle insert - thereby providing a largest circle that encircles any features of the bottle insert.

[00433] Closed curve is a curve composed of any lines such as straight lines and/or tangent curves that enclose the bottle insert. The closed curve may be 9254.

[00434] The circumference of Imaginary circle exceeds the circumference of the closed curve.

[00435] The ratio between the circumference of the closed curve and the circumference of the Imaginary Circle (mentioned above) may, for example, range of 100:102 and 100: 115) [00436] Embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the specific examples presented herein. Features of specific examples may be added to other examples as required. For example, bottle inserts 100, 9232, 9200 and 700 may also include a two-stage chamber system as disclosed herein, and insets 2200, 2900, 3600, 4200, 9200 and 9232 and 5200 may be designed to include a slide for controlled release of tables as slides 130 or 730.

[00437] Figures 100-123 provide various examples of a kit that includes a bottle and a bottle insert. In each of these kits there may be upper and lower limiting features that trap or otherwise position the bottle insert at a predefined position in relation to the bottle. These upper and lower limiting features may include steps, stoppers, recessed formed in the neck of the bottle, an upper protuberance, and the like. Non-limiting examples of such lower and upper features are shown in figures 61-62 and also also shown in some figures of 100-123 for brevity of explanation.

[00438] The upper and lower limiting features allow to easily position the bottle insert in the bottle and after the insertion - to limit the movement of the bottle insert.

[00439] Figures 100-104 illustrate a kit 7000 that includes a bottle 7001 and a bottle insert

7005.

[00440] These figures illustrates the kit when the kit is upside down - during a process of outputting objects from the kit.

[00441] Figure 100 illustrates a cross section along axis A-A, while figures 101-14 illustrate cross section along axis B-B that may be vertical to axis A-A.

[00442] The bottle insert 7005 includes a dispensing device 7010 that includes a central unit 7020, a peripheral unit 7011, and a distribution element (denoted 7024 in figures 101- 104) that is arranged to move between different positions thereby selectively allowing an object that is initially located in an interior of the bottle to be exited from the kit.

[00443] Figure 100 shows that the central unit 7020 has a body 7021 that has an interior part 7023 (that faces the interior of the bottle), an external part 7022 and has inclined sidewalls 7023. Body 7021 may vertically move in relation to peripheral unit 7011. In figure 100 elastic fins 7012 extend from the peripheral unit 7011 and contact the sidewalls of body 7021.

[00444] Figure 100 also illustrates that the bottle insert includes a chamber 7030 that has an inner space 7031. The chamber has a step or stopper that may mesh or fit a corresponding step of stopper 7004 in the neck of the bottle 7002 - thereby preventing inner movement of the bottle insert. The neck of the bottle may also include an upper protuberance 7003 or an upper narrower portion in which the interior of the neck is narrower than another part of the neck - so that when the insert bottle is inserted into the bottle the one or more protuberance of the bottle insert is caught between the step or stopper 7004 and upper protuberance 7003 so that the bottle insert does slip from the bottle- either into the bottle or outside the bottle. A recess may be formed between the step or stopper 7004 and upper protuberance 7003. The recess may be deformable, may be created before the insertion of the bottle insert or due to the insertion of the bottle insert. Peripheral unit 7011 may also act as an interface between bottle insert 7005 and externa; part 7022. Peripheral unit 7011 may also be stuck and may be prevented from moving without or without the bottle. [00445] In figure 101-104 the movement of distribution element 7024 is via rotation about axis 7026 - that changes the angular relationship between distribution element 7024 and tunnel 7025. Movements other that rotational movements may be used.

[00446] In figures 101-104 body 7021 is shown as including a tunnel 7025. The tunnel stretches from an interior side of the body to an external side of the body. The external side of body 7021 is not sealed and an object that reaches the external side of the body exits the kit.

[00447] The distribution element 7024 is has a base and two legs that define an inner space. In figures 101-104 the distribution element is illustrates as having a U-shape. Other shapes may be used. The legs of the distribution elements extend into tunnel 7025 and may either prevent or allow objects to move within the tunnel.

[00448] In figure 101 the distribution element 7024 is positioned in a first position - its legs are tilted towards the exterior of the kit - and they block object 7051 from passing through tunnel 7025.

[00449] In figure 102 the distribution element 7024 is positioned in a second position - its legs are tilted towards the interior of the bottle - and its inner space receives the object 7051. Object 7051 is still prevented from passing through tunnel 7025.

[00450] In figure 103 the distribution element 7024 is positioned in a third position - its legs are horizontal, its inner space holds object 7051. Objects 7051 and 7052 are prevented from passing through tunnel 7025. Object 7052 may lean on the exterior of distribution element 7024.

[00451] In figure 104 the distribution element 7024 is positioned in a fourth position - its legs (and inner space) are tilted towards the exterior of the kit - and object 7071 is released from the kit. Object 7052 may still lean on the exterior of distribution element 7024.

[00452] Distribution element 7024 moves within an inner space 7028 defined in peripheral unit 7011 and within tunnel 7025.

[00453] Vertical movements introduced by the user may cause the distribution element 7024 to move between the first till fourth positions.

[00454] While figures 100-104 illustrates outputting of an object from a dispenser by performing some movements - and positioning the bottle and bottle insert upside down - is should be noted that the objects may be released by any other movement (release, push, pull) and/or by positioning the bottle at other orientations. Any linear movement illustrate din these figures may be replaced by a rotational movement- and vice-verse. [00455] Figures 105-106 illustrate a kit 7000 that includes a bottle 7001 and a bottle insert 7060.

[00456] Bottle insert 7060 includes a dispensing device 7066 that may be surrounded a peripheral unit 7065.

[00457] The dispensing device 7066 defines a tunnel 7068 between the interior of the bottle and the exterior of the kit. Opening 9062 defined the interior end of the tunnel.

[00458] The tunnel may be always open or may be closed, for example by a selection element such as illustrated in figures 100-104.

[00459] Figures 107-108 illustrate a kit that includes a bottle 7001 and a bottle insert 7070.

[00460] These figures illustrates the kit when the kit is upside down - during a process of outputting objects from the kit.

[00461] The bottle insert 7070 includes a dispensing device 7030 that includes a distribution element 7073 and a peripheral unit such as chamber 7030.

[00462] Distribution element 7073 is arranged to rotate about an axis 7074. The axis may be horizontal, non-horizontal, may be oriented (for example - normal or non-perpendicular) to a longitudinal axis 7009 of the bottle, and the like.

[00463] Distribution element 7073 is surrounded by intermediate element 7077.

[00464] The rotational movement of the distribution element may expose cavities 7076 formed in the exterior of the distribution element 7073. An object may enter a cavity that faces opening 7072 formed within an interior plate 7071 - and may be rotated (along with the rotated distribution element 7073) - until this cavity is exposed to the exterior of the kit.

[00465] In figure 108 there are four cavities - one cavity (highest cavity) facing the interior of the bottle, one cavity (lowest cavity) facing the exterior of the kit - and two other cavities face chamber 7030.

[00466] The number of cavities may differ from four. The cavities may be arranged in a symmetrical or non-symmetrical manner.

[00467] The cavities may be slightly larger than the object - or otherwise arranged to receive and hold the object during the rotation. The intermediate element 7077 may prevent objects from exiting the cavity. For example - the intermediate element may define an inner space that is radially symmetrical and matches distribution element 7073 - or is slightly bigger (for example by less than 1 mm or by few millimeters) the distribution element 7073.

[00468] The exterior of the distribution element 7073 may be smooth or rough. Using a rough exterior can ease the rotation of the distribution element 7073 by the user. [00469] In figure 108 the axis 7073 is parallel to the bottom of the bottle and normal to the longitudinal axis of the bottle.

[00470] Figure 109 illustrates a kit that includes bottle 7001 ' and a bottle insert 7080.

[00471] The bottle insert 7080 include a space limiter 7081 and a monitor that may monitor the number of objects that exit the kit.

[00472] The space limiter 7081 that has a wider upper part and a narrower lower part 7087. The narrower lower part is configured to enable only a passes of a single object at a time - for example its width is smaller than an aggregate width of two objects.

[00473] The space limiter may be replaced by an opening that allows the passage of a single object at a time.

[00474] The monitor may include a transmitter 7084, a receiver 7083, a battery 7082, and a controller 7085.

[00475] The transmitter 7084 may be configured to transmit radiation that propagates through a path and is received by the receiver 7083. A passage of an objects through the path (from the interior 7002' of bottle 7001 ') during a release or exit process of the object) may interrupt the radiation flow and the receiver 7083 may detect that an object exited the kit.

[00476] The controller 7085 may count the number of objects that exited the kit, the timing of the exit and may generate an alert (or transmit signals that will trigger an alert in another device) that an object was released, that there is a need to renew the stock of objects, that the next object should be consumed, and the like.

[00477] Figure 110 illustrates a kit that includes bottle 700Γ and a bottle insert 7080' .

[00478] The bottle insert 7080' includes a space limiter 7081 and a monitor that may monitor when the induction seal 7091 is breached.

[00479] Figure 110 illustrates a space limiter 7081 - but this is optional.

[00480] The space limiter 7081 that has a wider upper part and a narrower lower part 7087. The narrower lower part is configured to enable only a passes of a single object at a time - for example its width is smaller than an aggregate width of two objects.

[00481] The space limiter may be replaced by an opening that allows the passage of a single object at a time.

[00482] The monitor may include a transmitter 7084, a receiver 7083, a battery 7082, and a controller 7085.

[00483] The transmitter 7084 may be configured to transmit radiation that impinges on the induction seal 7091 and is reflected or scattered towards the receiver 7083. When the induction seal 7091 is breached the radiation is not reflected or scattered to the receiver 7083 - and the receiver may detect that the induction seal 7091 was breached.

[00484] The controller 7085 may generate an alert (or transmit signals that will trigger an alert in another device) that the induction seal 7091 was breached.

[00485] In figures 109 and 110 the monitor may be activated in a continuous manner or in a non-continuous manner. The radiation may be transmitted in certain time windows and not transmitted during other time windows - or may be constantly transmitted.

[00486] The battery 7082 and/or the electrical components may be initially activated after the end of the manufacturing process, or at any other time. For example- the kit may include an insulating element (such as a strip) that one removed (or otherwise moved) may electrically coupled the previously isolated battery 7082 to the monitor or any other electrical part.

[00487] The activation may be triggered when the kit is in a certain position (for example- up-side down) - for example by using movable elements (such as balls) that close (form a conductive path) an electrical path when the kit is at a certain position.

[00488] The kit may include a monitor for monitoring the exit of objects and also monitor the breach of the induction seal.

[00489] Figure 111-113 illustrate a kit that includes a positioning monitor - that is capable to detect that a cap of a kit is positioned in a desired position. The desired position may be a desired angle in relation to the bottle, may be a desired spatial relationship in relation to the screw thread of the bottle and/or in relation to the bottle neck, or a combination of a desired angle and a desired height in relation to the bottle. The desired location can affect the moment required to close the cap.

[00490] The cap 7101 of the kit includes a reflecting element 7102 and non-reflecting elements 7103. Only when the cap 7101 is positioned at a desired location- the reflecting element 7102 reflects the radiation transmitted by a transmitter 7084 of a monitor (of the bottle insert) onto a receiver 7083 of the monitor.

[00491] The monitor is included in the bottle insert and includes a transmitter 7084 and receiver 7083, a battery 7082, and a controller 7085.

[00492] At least transmitter 7084 and receiver 7083 are formed in opening 7112 formed in the body 7111 of the bottle insert.

[00493] In figures 111-113 the radiation from the transmitter 9084 propagates through transmitter tunnel 7115 that is formed in the body 7111 of the bottle insert 7100. The radiation reflected from reflecting element 7102 propagate (when the reflecting element 7102 is at the desired location) through a receiver tunnel 7114 that is formed in the body 7111 of the bottle insert 7100.

[00494] The reciever 7083 or the controller 7082 may determine whether the cap is the desired position based on the detection (or lack of detection) of the radiation.

[00495] The transmitter 7084 may be configured to transmit radiation that impinges on the [00496] Figure 111 also shows that bottle insert 7116 has a stop or a stopper that corresponds to a step or stopper of the neck of the bottle. Figure 111 also illustrates upper blocking element 7003 of the neck of the bottle.

[00497] Figures 114-116 illustrate a kit that includes a positioning limiter - that is capable of positioning the bottle insert 7120 in a desired angular relationship. This is achieved by having a recess 7122 formed in the bottle insert - at a certain angular range - and having a protuberance 7123 formed in the interior of the neck of the bottle - so that the recess 7122 matches the protuberance 7123. There may be provided multiple positioning limiters (for example three) that are arrange in a symmetrical or non-symmetrical manner.

[00498] Figures 117-119 illustrate a kit that includes a bottle insert that includes a dispensing device 71400. The dispensing device includes a rotatable cover 7142 and a peripheral unit that includes blocker 7132, a sidewall 7137, and axel holders 7144.

[00499] The rotatable cover 7142 is coupled to (or integrated with) a rotation axel 7143 or to spaced apart elements that are positioned along a rotation axis 7148.

[00500] The rotation axel 7143 is held in an upper curved space formed by the axel holders 7144 - so that the rotatable cover 7142 may rotate in relation to the bottle.

[00501] The rotation axis 7148 is parallel to but spaced apart from the central axis 7149 of cover 7142. Accordingly - the rotation axis 7148 virtually segments the cover to a first portion 7142(1) and to a second portion 7142(2) that is smaller than the first portion 7142(2).

[00502] The blocker 7132 prevents the exterior of the first portion 7142(1) to exit the kit.

[00503] When the kit is held upside down, the objects within the kit force the rotatable cover 7142 to maintain in a closed position - because the first portion 7142(1) is bigger than the second portion 7142(2) and is assumed to convey more weight - that forces the first portion 7142(1) to lean against blocker 7132.

[00504] In order to release an object from the kit- the user has to move the the first portion 7142(1) into the kit- thereby allowing the second portion 7142(2) to rotate outside the kit- and form an opening through which the object may exit. [00505] Figure 118 also shows that the bottle insert has a stop or a stopper 7136 that corresponds to a step or stopper 7152 of the neck 7150 of the bottle. Figure 118 also illustrates upper blocking element 7153 of the neck of the bottle.

[00506] Figures 120-123 illustrates a kit that includes bottle 7150 and a bottle insert that may be a foldable bottle insert 7160 that can be moved between an interior position and an external position.

[00507] The bottle insert may be be flexible and/or bendable and/or foldable.

[00508] The bottle insert may include a foldable and/or bendable and/or foldable part that may be attached using an attachment mechanism (for example a frame or a ring or a rigid element) that may attached (detachably or not) the bottle insert to the bottle.

[00509] Any reference to a foldable bottle insert may be applicable mutatis mutandis to a bottle insert having a foldable portion.

[00510] Any reference to a foldable bottle insert may be applicable mutatis mutandis to a flexible bottle.

[00511] When positioned in the interior position - the foldable bottle insert 7160 is inserted into the bottle and functions as a space limiter - for example for reducing movement of objects within the bottle.

[00512] The foldable bottle insert 7160 may extracted from the bottle by pushing it outside the bottle.

[00513] Alternatively - the foldable bottle insert 7160 may be still connected to the bottle when positioned in the external position. Especially - a certain part (for example- ring 7161 of figure 120) of the foldable bottle insert 7160 may be positioned between upper and lower limiting features of the neck of the bottle - such as protuberance 7152 and step 7152. The certain part may also be glued to the neck of the bottle.

[00514] In this case - when positioned in the external position a part of the foldable bottle insert 7160 (for example- most of the soft and foldable bottle insert 7160) may be positioned outside the bottle.

[00515] One or more openings may be formed in the foldable bottle insert 7160. These openings may be formed in any location of the foldable bottle insert 7160. Figures 120-121 illustrate an opening 7180 that is formed in the narrowest ring 7167. Objects may exit the kit through the one or more openings.

[00516] The foldable bottle insert may be made of a soft material. For example- the foldable bottle insert 7160 may be softer than the neck of the bottle. [00517] The foldable bottle insert may include rigid and/or non-foldable elements - but is arranged to fold and unfold within and without the bottle.

[00518] The foldable bottle insert 7160 may be made of materials such as natural materials (for example - cardboard), or non-natural materials (- such as polymers - especially Low- density polyethylene (LDPE), Thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) or Thermoplastic polyure thane (TPU).

[00519] The foldable bottle insert, when positioned within the bottle may store, or be connected to one or more materials such as a desiccant.

[00520] The foldable bottle insert can include a desiccant and other materials.

[00521] The foldable bottle insert may have have multiple functionalities - it may serve as a volume reducer, as a dispenser, and/or as a "head space" reduction element (what today is often done with cotton. When serving as a volume reducer it may prevent or reduce movement of elements within the bottle.

[00522] The foldable bottle insert may store a desiccant during shelf life. The desiccant may or may not be removed during in use.

[00523] The foldable bottle insert may be used (folded and unfolded one or more times during its lifespan).

[00524] Figures 120-123 illustrate a foldable bottle insert 7160 that includes an array of coaxial rings 7161-7167 of diminishing radiuses that are connected to each other.

[00525]

[00526] The array has a bottom that that supports a manipulator such as rod 7170. The manipulator may have shapes that differ from a rod. There may be more than a single manipulator. The manipulator may be connected to any part of the soft and foldable bottle insert.

[00527] The rod 7170 can be contacted by a person and can be used to extract the soft and foldable bottle insert 7160 from the bottle or to move the soft and foldable bottle insert 7160 between the internal position and the external position.

[00528] The rod may also be used to block (or at least partially block) the opening 7178 - to prevent objects from exiting the bottle through opening 7180 when the soft and foldable bottle insert 7160 is positioned in the internal position.

[00529] The rod may block the opening when the soft and foldable bottle insert 7160 is at a first position (for example - within the bottle) and may not block the opening when the soft and foldable bottle insert 7160 is at a second position (for example - outside the bottle). [00530] The soft and foldable bottle insert 7160 may prevent a user from contacting items (such as pills) located with the bottle and may be used as a space limiter for reducing movement of the items within the bottle.
