Container for filter-as-you-pour system

A filter-as-you-pour system configured to filter water as the water is poured from the system, the system comprising:

• a container body defining an internal storage volume extending from a top edge to a bottom floor of the container body and configured to hold the water;
• a filter assembly attachable to the container body or a lid body, the filter assembly being disposed so as to be in a flow stream of the water as the water is poured from the container body through an outlet so that all water exiting through the outlet passes through the filter assembly to filter the water before exiting through the outlet;
• wherein the internal storage volume defined from the top edge to the bottom floor of the container body is undivided when the container body and filter assembly are assembled, so as to not include a reservoir compartment for unfiltered water and another compartment for filtered water, with the filter assembly disposed between the two compartments;
• and
• wherein filter media of the filter assembly comprises an activated carbon textile material wrapped around and in contact with a sidewall of an inner hollow core frame member to define a central hollow section and to present an annular curved surface to the water entering and passing through the annular curved surface of the filter assembly;
• wherein the filter assembly includes an open and non-partitioned filter top extending from the central hollow section to freely pass the water through the open and non-partitioned filter top to the outlet;
• wherein the system further comprises the lid body, the outlet being disposed in the lid body and a separate spaced apart inlet disposed in the lid body configured to receive the unfiltered water into the internal storage volume without flowing through a filter or a reservoir.
