Abstract
A bottle holder comprises a handle manually graspable by a user, a cap remover carried by the handle for receiving, gripping and removing the cap of the bottle, an attachment member fixed to the handle, open at one end, and having internal threads at the opposite end for threading onto the external threads of the bottle neck, a closure pivotally mounted to the attachment member either to a closed position closing its open end or to an open position, and an operator carried by the handle and mechanically coupled to the closure to enable the operator, when operated by the user, to move the closure to either its open position or to its close position with respect to the open end of the attachment member.
Claims11
A bottle holder for a bottle having a neck formed with external threads for receiving a cap, said bottle holder comprising:
- a handle manually graspable by a user;
- an attachment member fixed to one end of the handle, said attachment member having internal threads at one end for threading onto the external threads of the neck of the bottle, and being open at the opposite end;
- a closure movably mounted to said attachment member either to a closed position closing said open end of the attachment member, or to an open position with respect thereto;
- and
- an operator carried by said handle and mechanically coupled to said closure to enable the operator, when operated by the user, to move said closure to either its open position or to its closed position with respect to the open end of said attachment member;
- said closure including a stem carrying a sealing ring receivable within the neck of the bottle in the closed position of the closure;
- said stem being formed with an annular groove receiving said sealing ring, the face of said sealing ring disposed inwardly of the bottle neck being formed with an annular recess defining an outer annular skirt deflectable outwardly by the pressure within the bottle to enhance the sealing effected by said sealing ring.
A bottle holder for a bottle having a neck formed with external threads for receiving a cap, said bottle holder comprising:
- a handle manually graspable by a user;
- an attachment member fixed to one end of the handle, said attachment member having internal threads at one end for threading into the external threads of the neck of the bottle, and being open at the opposite end;
- a closure movably mounted to said attachment member either to a closed position closing said open end of the attachment member, or to an open position with respect thereto;
- an operator extending substantially parallel to and for substantially the complete length of the handle and pivotally mounted thereto about an axis substantially perpendicular to but laterally of the axis of the bottle neck;
- said operator being fixed to said closure on one side of the pivotal mounting of the operator to the handle to enable the operator, when squeezed towards the handle, on the side opposite to said pivotal mounting, to pivot said closure to either its open position or to its closed position with respect to the open end of said attachment member;
- said closure including a stem carrying a sealing ring receivable within the neck of the bottle in the closed position of the closure;
- and spring means interposed between said handle and operator and normally urging the operator to the closed position of the closure.
