Reason for creating an innovative solution:
The problem of chewed gum – where to throw it after we finish chewing, if we are not near a trash can.
People then get rid of these gums by: throwing them around (floor, road, nature,…), sticking them in papers and putting them in pants which can lead to sticking to the fabric, sticking them under tables, on walls and also throwing them into the sea and other waters.
Solution: Repurpose existing chewing gum packaging, bottles of various shapes, their caps into a gum container. The cap will have its own opening, so that there is no contact with new gums.
In this case, the lower dome is movable, and opens and closes by moving your fingers left and right.
Additional benefit: the “empty space” in the bottles already exists and is unused.
