Abstract
A battery-powered light can be installed in a punt of a bottle during manufacture and then turned on at use. The battery-powered light includes a skid pad that is free of adhesive. A battery insulator pull tab overlies the skid pad and can be removed even after adhering the light assembly to the bottle. The battery insulator pull tab prevents the battery of the light assembly from discharging before being needed. The skid pad prevents adhesive from sticking to the insulator pull tab, thereby making it otherwise unremovable.
Claims11
A light assembly for illuminating a bottle, comprising:
- an electrical light for generating light, said electrical light having a light anode and a light cathode;
- a backing having a backing perimeter and a backing top, said backing top supporting said electrical light;
- a battery having a battery cathode and a battery anode, said battery being supported by said backing;
- an anode battery contact for connecting to said battery anode;
- a cathode battery contact for connecting to said battery cathode;
- an anode lead interconnecting said anode battery contact and said light anode;
- a cathode lead interconnecting said cathode battery contact and said light cathode;
- an insulator tab being interposed between one of said battery cathode and said cathode battery contact, and said battery anode and said anode battery contact, said insulator tab having a strip width, said insulator tab being removable;
- and
- adhesive for adhering to a bottle bottom of the bottle, said adhesive being disposed on said backing top;
- said backing having a skid pad running between said battery and said backing perimeter, said skid pad being free of said adhesive, said skid pad having a skid pad width greater than said strip width;
- and
- said insulator tab overlying said skid pad, extending beyond said backing perimeter, and remaining removable when said backing is adhered to the bottle.
A light assembly for illuminating a bottle, comprising:
- an electrical light for generating light;
- a backing having a backing perimeter and a backing top, said backing top supporting said electrical light;
- a battery being connected electrically to said electrical light to form a circuit, said battery providing electricity to illuminate said electrical light when said circuit is connected;
- a break point in said circuit for interrupting and completing said circuit;
- an insulator tab being inserted in said circuit at said break point, said insulator tab interrupting said circuit when being inserted at said break point, and said insulator tab allowing said circuit to be completed when said insulator tab is removed from said break point, said insulator tab having a strip width;
- and
- adhesive for adhering to a bottom of the bottle, said adhesive being disposed on said backing top;
- said backing top having a skid pad running between said break point and said backing perimeter, said skid pad being free of said adhesive, said skid pad having a skid pad width greater than said strip width;
- and
- said insulator tab overlying said skid pad and being disposed between said skid pad and said bottle, extending beyond said backing perimeter, and remaining removable by outwardly pulling when said backing is adhered to the bottle.
