Abstract

This is a bottle with a peelable sealing foil at the main opening. This peelable foil has a long tail or thread attached to one edge. Thus, the bottle can firstly be safely tilted into the opening where its contents have to be emptied without spilling the contents outside, and then the said tail or thread can be pulled for the bottle to be opened remotely and emptied safely. Instead of the said peelable sealing foil, the bottle may have a snap-on cap with a tongue so that it can be opened remotely by pressure on a depression on this tongue with a stick. This bottle also has at the other end (that is, at the bottom) a second opening that has a cap that can be opened, say by unscrewing, to let the air in once the main opening is ready for pouring; thus the contents flow out safely, easily and quickly.

Description

Patent Application : - SAFE-AND-QUICK-POURING BOTTLE
Inventor : BIBHUTI BHUSAN BARDHAN
Page - 2 (of 10) Background of Invention Here the typical small bottle of automobile engine oil is used as a typical example, though the scope and the use of this invention is not limited to this kind of bottle only.
When a small (say, a litre-size or pint-size) bottle of automobile engine oil is to be poured into the engine, the bottle, typically, needs to be opened at the top by unscrewing the cap and then gently tilted into the opening of the oil reservoir of the engine.
During this said tilting of the bottle, it is very usual to spill some of the oil from the bottle outside the opening of the engine oil reservoir. The present invention prevents such spilling.
Moreover, when the above said bottle, after opening, is inserted into the mouth of the engine oil reservoir, the oil starts to pour from the bottle into the engine.
However, since the same opening is used by the outgoing oil as well as the incoming air, which necessarily has to replace the oil inside the bottle for the bottle to be emptied (because of dynamics of physics), it takes a while for these two processes to take place before the bottle is totally emptied. But, once this bottle is tilted upside down (and its main mouth placed into the inside of the engine oil reservoir), if a second opening is made, say by having another secondary opening at the other end of the bottle (as in this present invention), the replacing air may flow easily and smoothly and quickly through the said secondary opening at the bottom of the bottle-now at the end at up the top when the bottle is upside down-while the oil flows easily and smoothly and quickly through the main opening of the bottle-now at the end at down the bottom when the bottle is upside down-following the physical dynamics and properties of liquid and gas.

Patent Application : - SAFE-AND-QUICK-POURING BOTTLE
Inventor : BIBHUTI BHUSAN BARDHAN
Page-3 (ofl0) Description of Invention Like numbers in parenthesis here refer to like numbers in the drawings in the Diagrams A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, and K.
Let us take, for the sake of an easy illustrative example, an ordinary small (say, a litre-size or a pint-size) bottle (1) in which automobile motor oil is sold, although the scope of this invention is by no means limited to this or such kind of bottles only.
As in Diagrams A and B, inside the outer cap (not illustrated), the opening of the main mouth (8) of the bottle (1 ) is sealed with a peelable foil (2) (of plastic, greased cardboard, cellophane, etc., for example) that has attached to its one edge a thread (3) or a tail/extension (3) of this foil that can be pulled at the other free end to peel off this foil remotely to finally open this bottle fully to let the contents pour out safely from the inverted bottle after placing the main mouth (8) of the bottle inside the opening (4) of the container where the contents have to be poured. This avoids spilling of the contents of the bottle outside during the process of tilting the mouth (8) of the bottle into the opening (4) of other containers (here, the automobile engine oil reservoir) where the contents have to be poured.
The edge opposite to where the said thread or tail/extension of the foil is attached may be made to stick to the bottle relatively more securely so that a stronger force is needed to peel off this end part depending on the wish of the user to peel off the whole foil or to let the foil remain stuck to the bottle through this end part for ease of disposal together.
As an illustration of its operation, the cap is taken off from the main mouth or opening (8) of the bottle, but the peelable sealing foil (2) is kept intact at this point.
Then the thread or Patent Application : - SAFE-AND-QUICK-POURING BOTTLE
Inventor : BIBHUTI BHUSAN BARDHAN
Page - 4 fof 10) tail/extension (3) of this foil attached to its edge is grabbed at the free end with one hand keeping this thread or tail/extension loose enough and the bottle is inverted placing its mouth (8) into the inside of the opening (4) of the engine oil reservoir. Now this thread or tail/extension of the said foil is pulled to open the bottle fully and thus remotely, thus without any chance of the contents-that is, the motor oil, in this instance to spill outside of the engine oil reservoir.
As in Diagrams C, D, E, F, G, H, J and K, instead of the above said peelable foil, the main mouth or opening (8) of the bottle may have a snap-on cap (22). This snap-on cap has a thread (333) (Diagrams C, D, E and F) attached to one part of its edge so that it can be opened remotely by pulling this said thread (333). Alternatively, this snap-on cap (22) may have a tongue (33) (Diagrams G, H, J and K) protruding at one part of its edge. This snap-on cap is opened by pressure on the tongue (33) with a long stick (9) (such as a screw driver). This said tongue has a depression in the central area to prevent slipping of the stick when opening the snap-on cap as stated. This snap-on cap has a hinge (6) (Diagrams C, D, G and H) near its edge opposite to where the said thread or tongue is attached. The smaller part beyond this hinge (222) is more securely attached to the bottle and would not be detached normally when the rest of the snap-on cap is opened, especially in the case of opening with the said stick and the said tongue as stated above so that the cap does not fall down into the engine oil reservoir. The said hinge (6) may be made of a groove on a snap-on cap made of plastic, for example. Or, the whole snap-on cap may be secured to the upper part of the bottle by a flap (7) (Diagrams E, F, J and K), for example, attached to the snap-on cap at the edge opposite to where the said thread or tongue is located. This is especially required in the case of opening the snap-on cap with the said stick and the said tongue as stated above so that this cap does not fall down into the engine oil reservoir.

Inventor : BIBHUTI BHUSAN BARDHAN
Page - S (of 10) Next, the cap of a secondary opening (5) (Diagram B) at the bottom of the bottle (now lying at the upper part while the bottle is in the inverted position for the oil to pour down into the engine oil reservoir) is opened to let the air from outside flow into the inside of the bottle from above while the oil is pouring out down into the engine oil reservoir through the main mouth or opening (8) (presently at the lower part) of the inverted bottle.
Thus, the air-entering the bottle from above to replace the oil inside the bottle pouring out of the bottle through the main mouth (8) now positioned below-will allow the oil to pour out more smoothly, easily and quickly than would have been the case if the outgoing oil and the incoming air had to use the same main mouth (8) of the bottle. The said secondary opening (5) of the bottle can be opened once the main mouth (8) of the bottle is placed inside the opening (4) of the engine oil reservoir and before or after the foil (2) is peeled off or the snap-on cap (22) is opened.
