Swivel head cap connector

A connector for attachment to a bottle having a threaded neck for conversion of the bottle into a float comprising:

• a threaded cap member for sealing threaded coupling to the threaded neck of the bottle, said cap member including a main body portion, annular collar means, and standoff means positioning said collar means spaced from said main body portion;
• an eyebolt member including a generally annular eye portion and a shaft portion extending radially from said eyebolt portion, said shaft portion having an enlarged diameter head portion at the free end thereof and a pair of orthogonal slits extending axially through said head portion for a short distance along said shaft portion, defining four branches of said shaft portion, said shaft portion being rotatably receivable within said collar means;
• and securing means for retaining said eyebolt member in connection with said collar means and permitting rotation of said eyebolt member relative to said cap member, said securing means including a generally spherical recess within said slits at said head portion and a spherical ball member retentatively positionable within said recess following insertion of said head portion through said collar means to spread said branches and prevent unwanted disconnection of said eyebolt member from said cap member.
