Claims14
A carrier device adapted for substantially vertically receiving a cylindrical drinking bottle having a top end and a bottom end, the carrier device comprising a strap assembly composed of longitudinal and transverse straps made of a flexible material, said carrier device comprising:
- a first longitudinal strap adapted to extend around the drinking bottle from the top end to the bottom end thereof, across said bottom end and extending back to the top end thereof;
- a second longitudinal strap adapted to extend around the drinking bottle from the top end to the bottom end thereof, across said bottom end and extending back to the top end thereof, said second longitudinal strap being approximately 90.degree. circumferentially offset from said first longitudinal strap and having a free end;
- said first and second longitudinal straps intersecting one another at right angles to form a bottom support portion and being fixed to one another at the intersection by sewing;
- a first, upper circumferential strap adapted to receive a portion of the cylindrical drinking bottle proximate said top end thereof and interconnecting said first and second longitudinal straps, said first and second longitudinal straps each being fixed to said upper circumferential strap at two diametrically opposite positions;
- a second, lower circumferential strap adapted to receive a portion of the drinking bottle proximate said bottom end thereof and adjacent to the bottom support portion and interconnecting said first and second longitudinal straps, said first and second longitudinal straps each being fixed to said lower circumferential strap at two diametrically opposite positions;
- a third, immediate circumferential strap adapted to receive a portion of the drinking bottle substantially equidistant from the top end and the bottom end thereof and interconnecting said first and second longitudinal straps, said first and second longitudinal straps each being fixed at said intermediate circumferential strap at two diametrically opposite positions;
- a shoulder carrying strap integrally formed from a first end of the first longitudinal strap;
- an upper bottle closing means which closes said drinking bottle and comprises a support ring adapted to surround a mouth opening of the drinking bottle, said support ring being connected to a securing strap portion having a free end;
- and
- a fastening buckle which is disposed at the free end of the second longitudinal strap for attaching together the free end of said second longitudinal strap to the free end of said securing strap portion in a longitudinally adjustable manner.

- a shoulder carrying strap integrally formed by attaching together each end of the first longitudinal strap;
- an upper bottle closing means which closes said drinking bottle and comprises a support ring which is connected to a securing strap portion having a free end;
- and
- a fastening buckle located at the free end of the second longitudinal strap and the free end of the securing strap portion, wherein the free ends of the second longitudinal strap and the securing strap portion are retained together in a longitudinally adjustable manner.
