DEVICES FOR IMPROVED EVACUATION OF INGREDIENT CONTAINERS

摘要

The ingredient bag assembly of the present disclosure includes a bin, an ingredient bag, and a nozzle to extract a liquid or semi-solid ingredient from inside the bag. The bins of the present disclosure have a living spring, tilted bottom surface, or other insert that encourages the evacuation of the ingredient through the nozzle. The nozzles of the present disclosure can have shorter projections into the bin, to allow for additional ingredient to be extracted. The nozzles can also have one or more drain holes tooled therein, to further assist with evacuation.
