Abstract
A bottle cap drip tray device is disclosed herein. The bottle cap drip tray device includes an upstanding inner wall portion; an upturned peripheral edge portion forming an outer peripheral boundary of the bottle cap drip tray device; and a floor portion extending between the upstanding inner wall portion and the upturned peripheral edge portion. The bottle cap drip tray device is configured to prevent a substance being poured from a bottle from dripping down one or more sides of the bottle.
Claims20
A bottle cap drip tray device, comprising:
- an upstanding inner wall portion;
- an upturned peripheral edge portion forming an outer peripheral boundary of the bottle cap drip tray device, the upturned peripheral edge portion having a curved upper surface and a curved lower surface, the curved lower surface of the upturned peripheral edge portion being oppositely disposed relative to the curved upper surface, and the curved upper and lower surfaces of the upturned peripheral edge portion being curved in a plane that is parallel to a vertical axis of the bottle cap drip tray device;
- and
- a floor portion extending between the upstanding inner wall portion and the upturned peripheral edge portion, the floor portion having an upper surface and a lower surface, the lower surface of the floor portion being oppositely disposed relative to the upper surface, the upper surface of the floor portion being adjoined to the curved upper surface of the upturned peripheral edge portion, the lower surface of the floor portion being adjoined to the curved lower surface of the upturned peripheral edge portion, and the curved upper and lower surfaces of the upturned peripheral edge portion each having a varying slope from a first location where the curved upper and lower surfaces adjoin the upper and lower surfaces of the floor portion to a second location at the outer peripheral boundary of the bottle cap drip tray device;
- wherein the bottle cap drip tray device is configured to prevent a substance being poured from a bottle from dripping down one or more sides of the bottle.
2 more elements
A bottle cap drip tray system, comprising:
- a bottle having an animal or human figurine shape, the bottle configured to hold a substance in an interior of the bottle;
- a bottle cap drip tray device configured to be attached to the bottle, the bottle cap drip tray device being in a shape of a hat disposed on a head of the animal or human figurine, and the bottle cap drip tray device including:
- an upstanding inner wall portion;
- an upturned peripheral edge portion forming an outer peripheral boundary of the bottle cap drip tray device;
- and
- a floor portion extending between the upstanding inner wall portion and the upturned peripheral edge portion, the upturned peripheral edge portion surrounding the floor portion;
- wherein the bottle cap drip tray device is configured to prevent the substance from dripping down one or more sides of the bottle when the substance is being poured from the bottle;
- and
- wherein the floor portion and/or the upturned peripheral edge portion of the bottle cap drip tray device has a textured inner surface comprising a plurality of ribs that define recesses between the ribs for trapping the substance being poured from the bottle.
6 more elements
A bottle cap drip tray system, comprising:
- one or more adapter rings for enabling a bottle cap drip tray device to be coupled to bottles of different sizes, each of the one or more adapter rings including a cylindrical body portion with an exterior surface and an interior surface, the exterior surface of the cylindrical body portion being oppositely disposed relative to the interior surface;
- and
- wherein the exterior surface of the cylindrical body portion of each of the one or more adapter rings is configured to be coupled to the bottle cap drip tray device, and the interior surface of the cylindrical body portion of each of the one or more adapter rings is configured to be coupled to a neck of a bottle.
