Liquid-dispensing container with single gimbal mechanism

Abstract

A household liquid-dispensing container such as a drinking vessel or a jug comprising a vessel (30) that is configured to hold a liquid and that has a base (37) on which it can stand, an opening (39) and at least one side (38); and a handle (50) that is configured to be held by a user and that is attached to a side of the vessel (38) by a joint that forms a single gimbal between the handle (50) and the vessel (30) and that allows the handle (50) to pivot about a single axis (21) that extends directly above the centre of gravity of the vessel (30) when the vessel base (37) is standing on a horizontal surface: an optional baffle assembly (80) to reduce sloshing; and a lid (120).

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
