Definitions
- the invention relates to a unique container that incorporates a functional handle into the neck area of an embodied container.
- the invention relates to a container, particularly a beverage bottle having a handle.
- the primary function of such a handle is to assist with pouring of a liquid from the larger bottle into a smaller personal container, such as a cup.
- a beverage container with a handle has been known in the art, it commonly suffers from functional and aesthetic disadvantages that the present invention seeks to resolve.
- a handle on a container is meant to be of greatest assistance at the time when the beverage container is full, since this is the time when the container is the heaviest and most cumbersome.
- a handle should provide an enhanced grip to prevent spills caused by hand slippage.
- presently known handles do not satisfy this paradigm since they are actually more convenient to use when the container is not as full to the top.
- a significant change of appearance may have an immediate negative affect on consumption of a given beverage, as consumers may not initially recognize the new packaging, or may be discouraged from buying products having packaging that is perceived to be less attractive.
- the claimed change to a beverage bottle will not require a manufacturer to increase the overall size of the bottle to maintain presently supplied quantities.
- bottlers will be able to ship the bottles in currently manufactured crates, since the handled bottle of the present invention does not project past the wall of the soda container.
- the machinery and processes used in bottle making are precisely calibrated over long periods of time to accommodate a specific bottle mold and a resulting shape of the bottle.
- the significant financial risk and difficulties associated with introduction of new packaging discourages bottle manufacturers from introducing new packaging, even if this packaging is superior to what is currently being used in the art.
- the present invention benefits the parties by not requiring the manufacturer to significantly change its molds, because all essential dimensions of an existing container are preserved.
- the presently claimed handle is disposed at the crown.
- the crown tends to have a greater structural integrity then the rest of the bottle, due to its curved shape and proximity to components that by their nature need to be substantially more structurally robust then the rest of the container, such as the opening of a bottle.
- the structural enhancement ensures that the novel handled claimed in the present invention provides adequate strength to support all intended uses and strains.
- the presently available bottle handles are designed for adult hands, which lead to children always needing adult help in handling beverage containers, and indirectly, to a high rate of spillage, in instances when an adult is not present or is not available.
- the present invention has a smaller cross sectional diameter, thereby giving children greater independence in using beverage containers.
- U.S. Patent No. 4,257,525 discloses A new and unique bottle and attachable handle and method of forming and assembling the same.
- the bottle includes a recess in its sidewall which provides space for finger placement and means for attaching the handle substantially therewithin.
- the handle is attached to the sidewall of the bottle at the upper and lower portions of the recess and essentially lies within the breadth of the bottle and preferably substantially within the recess.
- the handle and bottle can be attached by interlocking, welding, bonding, or adhesive means.
- the handle and bottle have coating surfaces which provide vertical and horizontal bearing surfaces therebetween for lifting and carrying the bottle and for pouring therefrom.
- U.S. Patent No. 6,910,596 teaches A liquid storage bottle is provided with a generally cylindrical liquid storage chamber and an integral handle.
- a well is formed in the liquid storage chamber to accommodate the handle.
- the walls of the well are configured to prevent water from pooling thereon, and to allow a cleaning fluid to reach all inside surfaces of the bottle.
- the handle is configured for ease of cleaning the bottle.
- the handle is closed-off from the liquid storage chamber.
- the handle is configured to allow a water-safe cap easily to pass therethrough.
- U.S. Patent No. 7,357,267 discloses A liquid storage bottle is provided with a generally cylindrical liquid storage chamber and an integral handle.
- a well is formed in the liquid storage chamber to accommodate the handle.
- the walls of the well are configured to prevent water from pooling thereon, and to allow a cleaning fluid to reach all inside surfaces of the bottle.
- the handle is configured for ease of cleaning the bottle.
- the handle is closed-off from the liquid storage chamber.
- the handle is configured to allow a water-safe cap easily to pass therethrough.
- the present invention is a liquid container having an internal storage cavity with a substantially cylindrical sidewall, a neck area and a base area.
- the neck area contains an opening at its apex to permit entry and egress of liquids.
- the neck area also contains a handle that runs across a concave indentation, which is also part of the neck area.
- the handle's first point and second point are contained completely within the neck area.
- the handle's curvature is substantially the same as the curvature of the neck and it outer arc having the same radian value as the outer arc of the neck area. Equal radian values camouflage the presence of the claimed handle, reducing its potential jarring appearance, while also retaining the same overall shape of the exterior arc, thus largely alleviating the need to retool or reconfigure existing bottle making equipment or storage equipment.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a liquid container whose production will not require significant retooling and calibration.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide a liquid container suitable for pouring by adults and children.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a liquid container having a handle that resists slippage.
- Still another object of the present invention is to provide a liquid container with a handle that enables for convenient and effortless tilting and manipulation of a bottle.
- Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a liquid container having a handle that facilitates an easy removal of such container from a crate that is full of other similar containers.

- Fig. 7 is a front view of an alternative embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 5 Description of the Preferred Embodiments
- FIG. 1 is a side view of the present invention, disclosing a perspective view of a handle. Shown in detail are a storage cavity 5, a container 10, a sidewall 20, a neck area 30, an opening 40, having a cover 45, a concave indentation 50, an outer surface 60, a handle 70, a first point 80, and a second point 90.
- the container 10 is preferably intended for liquids fit for human consumption. However, the same concepts will be beneficial for liquids that are unfit for human consumption as well, such as detergents, cleaning agents, adhesives, as well pourable powdered solids.
- the container is preferably made of a verity of polymer substances used in the art, and may also be made out of paper, ceramics or glass, and also less pliable or commonly used materials, such as wood or metal.
- the preferred handle 70 is preferably made out of the same material as the rest of the container 10 and may also be made out of a different material.
- a typical plastic container is formed using a combination of blow molding techniques, such as, but not limited to, extrusion blow molding, injection blow molding, and stretch blow molding.
- a typical manufacturing process includes the steps of forming a parison or preform out of a section of hot raw material, by blowing compressed gas, usually air, into an opening on one end of the raw material. The blowing air expands the preform, pressing it against walls of a mold, in the process also forming the opening 40 into a hard area that may contain a thread or frictional elements (not shown).
- a manufacturer will not need to create an entirely new mold, but can make due with inserts or accents forming the indentation 50 and the handle 70 in the neck area 30.
- accents or inserts may be removable thus affording the possibility of the making several types of containers using the same mold, namely a container having a handle 70 and a container not having one.
- the indentation with the handle may be added as a separate step while the neck area 30 of the container 10 is still hot and pliable from the molding process.
- the present invention is shown as disposed on a liquid container bottle 10, preferably a soft drink bottle or otherwise a bottle having a liquid fit for human consumption.
- the handle 70 begins at the first point 80 and terminates at the second point 90.
- Soft drinks are heavily favored by young children, for whom a container 10 may be too heavy or bulky, and who for that matter will be unable to lift and pour some of the contents into a secondary vessel. Instead, children and others lacking sufficient strength, prefer tipping the container 10 instead of lifting it.
- the placement of the handle 70 within the neck area 30 is convenient for both lifting and tipping implementations.
- An additional benefit of a handle 70 that is placed so high up along the sidewall 20 is that it is visible and accessible while the container 10 is packed into a crate among other containers.
- the outer surface 60 may contain frictional or structural elements, such as ribs or rough surfaces for a more secure hold on the container. Such outer surface 60 may also be an element of design, or provide an enhanced structural integrity of the neck area 30. These optional accents would be added by the manufacturer during the molding process, or may be added later with decals or etching.
- FIG. 2 shows a storage cavity 5, a container 10, a sidewall 20, a neck area 30, an opening 40, having a cover 45, a concave indentation 50, an outer surface 60, a handle 70, an access area 75, a first point 80, a second point 90, an outside arc 100, an inside arc 110, a base area 130, and a base 140.
- the container 10 is preferably a polymer, such as plastic.
- the width of the access area 75 at its widest point should be preferably between Vi and 4 inches.
- the handle 70 is preferably hollow, and liquid within the container 10 is able to communicate unimpeded between the first point 80 and the second point 90.
- the handle 70 may still be hollow; however, a solid handle is preferred since it decreases the maintenance and disinfection costs associated with cleaning a length of narrow space, especially a handle 70 having a substantially thin diameter.
- a handle 70 that is unitary is sealed off from the storage cavity 5. This may be because it was added later in the manufacturing process, or simply was not designed to provide a channel for liquid communication between the first point 80 and the second point 90.
- a unitary embodiment of a handle 70 may nonetheless be hollow to reduce the weight of the overall container 10. However, it is easier and cheaper to create a unitary handle that is solid, which will also enhance the tensile strength of such a handle 70.
- Such a unitary handle 70 may be removable, as required for things like cleaning, storage, and disposal or recycling, mainly because a container 10 and the liquid storage cavity within it are sealed off from the handle 70.
- handles 70 are integral with the structure of the container 10 and are manufactured as a single monolithic unit. In integral handle 70 most often provides free communication channel for liquid stored within the storage cavity 5 that is contained within the container 10.
- the preferred cross sectional diameter of the handle 70 is between 1/8 and 2 inches, which is a sufficiently small circumference that would afford the hand or hands to surround it far enough and with enough comfort, to grip it as solidly as needed to perform a desired task.
- the handle 70 must posses sufficient strength to support a container 10 that is full to the top with liquid, which preferably means that the first point 80 and/or the second point 90 must be reinforced, and which may entail having a thicker wall in those areas. Furthermore, the handle 70 must possess sufficient length to permit the hand or hands gripping it to reliably exert a griping, holding, lifting or tipping force. The preferred length of the handle 70 is between 1.5 inches and 6 inches..
- the outside arc 100 of the handle 70 has a radian value equal to the outside arc 120 of the neck area 30. This contributes to a useful and non-obvious novelty of the embodied handle 70 in that the appearance of the container 10 is not altered by the presence of the handle 70. Therefore a target consumer is still able to easily recognize the packaging and will appreciate the extra convenience of a handle 70. If the radian value of the arc 100 is not equal to the arc 120 the resultant handle 70 will distort to appearance of the container 10, creating an appearance of a value pack, a detergent bottle, or a cleaning solution, thus potentially alienating image conscious consumers.
- the radian value of the inside arc 110 is the equal to the radian value of the outside arc 100, which is equal to the arc radian value of the neck area 120.
- the handle 70 is preferably substantially tubular to be congruous with the substantially cylindrical appearance of the majority of beverage containers 10. Additionally, such a shape is conducive of a better grip on the handle, as the human hand is more adapt at holding round objects that substantially conform to the shape of the hand than to square objects. However, a squared handle or a handle in a shape of an elongated tetrahedral shape, standing on its narrow end is also a viable alternative, if this design of the handle is a better match to the appearance of the container 10.
- finger grip indentations can be created on the inside arch 110 to further enhance the ergonomically preferred shape of the handle 70.
- finger grip indentations would run across the width of the inside arch 110.
- finger grip indentations can be either right handed or left handed.
- a left handed finger grip indentation will twist around the inside arch 110 with a termination point biased toward the right side of the handle 70, close to the outside arch 100; whereas a right handed finger grip indentation will twist around the inside arch 110 with a termination point biased toward the left side of the handle 70.
- the handle 70 may contain a frictional surface, which may be a frictional coating or a sleeve around the handle, made of a rubberized or gel-like material that will generate friction against the surface of the hand, thus reducing the need for a strong grip on the handle 70.
- the finger indentations or frictional surfaces or both, or even the mere presence of a comfortable, and agronomic handle 70 is very desirable to those who do not posses a physically strong hand grip, such as children and the elderly, or those afflicted with musculature or joint degenerative condition, including multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, arthritis or carpal tunnel.
- a removable handle For containers 10 holding a detergent, or liquid bottles of substantial size that are placed on their sides for storage, it may be desirable to create a removable handle, where such a handle conceals openings either at the first end 80 or the second end 90.
- a second opening is especially desirable for viscous liquids such as honey or syrup or such chemical substances as detergent and liquid soap.
- the opening 40 When a container 10 is placed on its side, either to effectuate pouring or for storage, as in the case of extra large containers 10, the opening 40 is likely to be completely covered by the viscous liquid. Viscous liquids are substantially impervious to the air. As a result, as the liquid drains from the opening 40, it creates an empty space inside the container 10.
- FIG. 3 provides an alternative embodiment for the handle 70. Shown are a liquid storage cavity 5, a container 10, a sidewall 20, a neck area 30, an opening 40, having a cover 45, a concave indentation 50, an outer surface 60, a handle 70, a first point 80, a second point 90, a distal end 150, and a gap 160.
- the handle 70 is shown only partially spanning the concave indentation 50, leaving a gap 160 between the distal end 150 where the handle 70 terminates and the second point 90.
- the gap 160 may be desirable because the handle 70 is now easier to grab, since the inside arch 110 is more accessible than in the preferred embodiment.
- the handle 70 can function as a hook, where the inside arch 110 is hung up on a support structure (not shown) that is admitted through the gap 160.
- a support structure not shown
- Another alternative embodiment would be to have telescoping handle 70.
- the handle 70 is a partial handle as shown in FIG. 3, having a telescoping slave section contained inside the handle 70 and which can emanate from the distal end 150 when necessary, such as when the container is full to the top, large or heavy.
- a concave indentation 50 may have a coupling point (not shown) to fixate such telescoping slave portion of the handle 70.
- this embodiment is not preferred, due to extra complexity and increased manufacturing cost.
- such a handle is very useful it is not as obfuscating as a full handle 70, and does not provide a grip that is as agronomic as the preferred full handle 70.
- Another alternative embodiment would be to have a handle 70 in shape of a ridge running vertically across the concave indentation 50, thus effectively dividing the concave indentation 50 into two sections.
- Yet another alternative embodiment would be to have a handle 70 whose inside arc 110 has a radian value is only slightly different than the radian value of the external arc 100 of the neck area 30. A slight deviation may enhance the ergonomic qualities of the handle 70, such as by providing a wider access area 75 (not shown), but not significantly alter the overall appearance of the container 10.
- FIG. 4 is another diagram of the preferred embodiment of the present invention, showing the preferred embodiment of the handle 70 from the front.
- a storage cavity 5 a container 10, a sidewall 20, a neck area 30, an opening 40, having a cover 45, a concave indentation 50, an outer surface 60, a handle 70, a first point 80, a second point 90, neck area arc 120, a base area 130, and a base 140.
- the cover 45 that is most common in the art is a screw-on cap or a plug, as well as a snap-on cap, as in when an opening 40 is a drinking nozzle.
- the opening 40 is formed at the apex of the neck area 30.
- the apex normally defined as the highest point, includes anywhere within the confines of the neck area 30 of the present invention.
- the neck area 30 forms a convex dome above of the liquid storage cavity 5. A part of the neck area 30 is removed during manufacture, and replaced with a concave cavity 50, having a handle 70.
- the liquid storage cavity 5 is supported by the base area 130 that is supported by the base 140, which sits atop of a support structure, such as a table, a shelf or a floor.
- the base area 130 is shown having fins or feet, however the particular shape of the base area 130 is not critical to the enablement of the present invention.
- FIGS. 5 - 7 show an alternative embodiment of the present invention. Shown are a storage cavity 5 inside a container 10 that has a sidewall 20 with a neck area 30 and an opening 40.
- the neck area 30 that is in a shape of a convex dome also shows a horizontal arc 180, and a horizontal arc of a handle 181.
- the opening 40 has a cover 45.
- the concave indentation 50 is replaced in this embodiment by a tunnel 170, having a mid-point 171.
- a handle 70 with an access area 75, a wide orifice edge 77, a narrow orifice edge 78, a first point 80, a second point 90, an outside arc 100, an inside arc 110 and the aforementioned horizontal arc 181.
- the container 10 further contains an arc of the neck area 120, a base area 130, and a base 140.
- a tunnel 170 The benefit of a tunnel 170 is that the internal volume of the container 10 that would be occupied by the concave indentation 50 may now be released back to the storage cavity 5.
- the handle 70 is even more hidden and discrete, since the handle 70 is no longer tubular, but contains a horizontal arc 181, whose radian value is equal to the radian value of the horizontal arc 180 of the neck area.
- the two access areas 75, on either side of the handle 70 also have a wide orifice edge 77 and a narrow orifice edge 78.
- the two access areas 75 represent a segment of material that was removed from the convex dome of the neck area 30 and which was then linked by a tunnel 170.
- a slide resistant, gripping surface may be located on the narrow orifice edge 78 or on both orifice edges 77 and 78.
- the slide resistant, frictional surface or finger indentations may exist within the tunnel 170 as well.
- Both the wide and narrow orifice edges 77 and 78 draw toward each other at the mid point 171 of the tunnel 170.
- This tapering in generally provides a better, more convenient gripping force on the handle 70 since it generally conforms to the shape or a human hand.
- the tapering in feature is not strictly required.
- the preferred length of the tunnel 170 may be approximately 1 inch, while the preferred diameter of the access areas 75 may be between .5 and 1.5 inches.
- the handle 70 formed above the tunnel 170 may permit liquids through or it may it may be solid.
- the arc 120 preferably has a radian value equal to the outside arc 100 of the handle 70. It may also be preferable that the radian value of the inside arch 110 is equal to that of the outside arc 100. These values would further one of the main objectives and the spirit of the present invention, namely, to preserve the accepted and customary appearance of the container 10, while affording a much needed handle 70. It should be noted that the alternative embodiment described in FIGS 5 - 7, may likely afford a smaller handle 70 than the one found in the preferred embodiment. However, the appearance of the container 10 may be enhanced by a more unobtrusive handle.
- a beverage or a container manufacturer will need to make a preference selection between a bigger handle and a uniform container 10.
- the container 10 shown in FIGS. 5-7 may be easier and cheaper to manufacture since the first point 80 and the second point 90 are more robust due to a larger handle 70.
- the tipping ability of the alternative handle 70 is somewhat compromised since a broader handle 70 is more biased towards lifting the container 10 rather than tipping it.

Abstract
La présente invention a trait à un récipient de liquide doté dune cavité intérieure de stockage pourvue dune paroi latérale sensiblement cylindrique, dune zone de goulot et dune zone de base. La zone de goulot contient une ouverture en son sommet afin de permettre lentrée et la sortie de liquides. La zone de goulot contient également une poignée qui traverse une dentelure concave, qui fait également partie de la zone de goulot. Dautre part, le premier point et le second point de la poignée sont entièrement contenus à lintérieur de la zone de goulot. La courbure de la poignée est sensiblement identique à la courbure du goulot et son arc extérieur a la même valeur de radian que larc extérieur de la zone de goulot. Des valeurs de radian égales camouflent la présence de la poignée revendiquée, ce qui permet de réduire son apparence potentiellement discordante, tout en conservant également la même forme densemble de larc extérieur, ce qui permet ainsi de réduire grandement le besoin dusiner de nouveau ou de reconfigurer léquipement de fabrication de bouteilles existant ou léquipement de stockage.
