Dispensing Container with Elevating Platform

Abstract

A container that facilitates dispensing food items or other products that may have a liquid component and a solid component even when those contents are mostly depleted. Within the container is a platform which is rotated manually to propel the contents upward.

1 . Container for a food product or other items that are a mixture of solid and liquid components, the container comprising:
 (i) an open topped lower cylindrical body with a threaded inside wall (“Outer Lower Container”), that thread being nonreversible   (ii) a cylindrical body (“Inner Lower Container”) protruding from the floor of the Outer Lower Container upon which is situated a circular platform (“Platform”) consisting of a rigid disk whose diameter is equivalent to the diameter of the smooth inner wall of the Upper Container (defined below) allowing the platform to fit snugly against the inner wall of the Upper Container as well as slide snugly against the inner wall of the Upper Container as the Lower Container (defined as collectively The Outer Lower Container and the Inner Lower Container) is elevated. The Inner Lower container is sized and weighted to ballast the contents which rest upon the platform   (iii) an open topped and open bottomed upper cylindrical body (“Upper Container”), an outside threaded mouth at a top thereof, and the wall of which containing a vertical recess continuing up to a point which is approximately 98% of the total height of Upper Container forming a sleeve into which will fit the threaded inside wall of the Outer Lower Container. The innermost recessed wall of the Upper Container is threaded on its inside to permit elevation of the Lower Container through manual rotation pushing the contents of the invention, resting on the Platform, towards the mouth of the Upper Container.   (iv) an inside threaded screw on cap
