Abstract
A washable cylindrical body, closed at the bottom and open at the top receptacle mountable on a bicycle, or tricycle which cylindrical body can be readily removed therefrom and either hand carried or secured upon a trouser's belt or pack strap, for transporting a fluid containing bottle or can. An optional insert securable within the container serves to retain the heat or cold of the fluid over a period of time. An optional zipper cover can also be added. An optional elastomeric star top can overlay the opening of the body and be used alone or in conjunction with a zipper cover.
Claims21
A lightweight flexible receptacle device for bottled water bottles and individual beverage cans and bottles, which receptacle is both adapted to be mounted to a bicycle's crossbar and stem, and to be belt carried, which device comprises:
- a. a body having a sidewall comprising a cylindrical member of a finite elevation, which body is closed off at the first end by a bottom wall, and is open at a second end;
- said body having a belt loop, which belt loop has a top edge and a bottom edge, secured along said edges to said sidewall of the device, such that an opening is defined for receipt of a belt horizontally therethrough;
- b. at least three bands containing hook and pile closure segments, the first of which is secured at a first location vertically along the side of the body of said device and which band is of greater extension than the elevation of said body, such that an extension section depends from said body, said first band's extension section terminating in a hook portion of a hook and pile closure,
- c. a second band, horizontally disposed, having distal and proximal ends, the proximal end of which is attached spaced down on on the body, to said first band, the remainder of the band being unattached, at least the distal end of said second band having an interior surface and an exterior surface, the interior surface having a hook portion, of a hook and pile closure and the exterior surface has a pile portion thereon;
- d. a third band, spaced from said first band around the circumference of said body, said third band comprising a pile portion of hook and pile closure, and secured vertically along the elevation of said body,
- whereby mounting to a bicycle, having a stem and crossbar and a neck is achieved by placing the device behind the stem and on top of the crossbar of the bicycle, wrapping said second band around the neck and engaging the hook portion of a hook and pile closure of said second band to said third band, and by wrapping the first band under the crossbar and releasably engaging its hook portion of a hook and pile closure to at least one pile portion.
A lightweight flexible receptacle device for bottled water bottles and individual beverage cans and bottles, adapted to be mounted to a bicycle and to be belt carried which comprises:
- a. a flexible cylindrical body closed off at a first end by a bottom wall and open at the second end and having a belt loop having top and bottom edges, secured along said edges only, to the body of the device, such that an opening is defined for receipt of a belt horizontally therethrough;
- b. at least one horizontally disposed band, mounted at one end to said body and spaced from said belt loop, and having hook and pile closure sections on opposite sides of the other end thereof for mounting the device to a bicycle's stem by releaseably engaging with;
- c. another band spaced about 180 degrees from the mounting of said first mentioned band, and vertically disposed along the body of said device, said another band having a pile section of a hook and pile closure thereon.
A lightweight flexible receptacle device for bottled water bottles and individual beverage cans and bottles, adapted to be mounted to both a bicycle and to one's belt which device comprises:
- a. a cylindrical body closed off at a first end by a bottom wall, and is open at a second end, and having a lining attached around the interior periphery of the top of the device;
- a belt loop having top and bottom edges, sewn along its top and bottom edges only to the body of the device, such that an opening is defined for receipt of a belt horizontally therethrough;
- said body also having three bands containing hook and pile closure segments, the first of which is secured at a first location vertically along the side of the body of said device and which band has an extension section which depends from said body, said first band's extension section terminating in a hook portion of a hook and pile closure,
- c. a second band, horizontally disposed, having distal and proximal ends, the proximal end of which is attached spaced down on of the body, the balance of the band being unattached, at least the distal end of said second band having an interior surface and an exterior surface, the interior surface having a hook portion, of a hook and pile closure;
- d. a third band, spaced from said first band around the circumference of said body, said third band comprising a pile portion of hook and pile closure, and secured vertically along the elevation of said body,
- whereby mounting to a bicycle is achieved by placing the device behind the stem and on top of the crossbar of the bicycle, wrapping said second band around the neck and engaging the hook portion of closure to said third band, and by wrapping the first band under the crossbar and releasably engaging its hook portion of closure to a pile portion of closure.
A lightweight flexible receptacle device for bottled water bottles and individual beverage cans and bottles, which receptacle is adapted to be mounted to a bicycle's stem and crossbar, which device comprises:
- a. a body having a sidewall comprising a cylindrical member, which body is closed off at a first end by a bottom wall, and is open at a second end;
- b. at least three bands containing hook and pile closure segments, the first of which is secured at a first location vertically along the side of the body of said device and which band has an extension section depending from said body, said first band's extension section terminating in a hook portion of a hook and pile closure,
- c. a second band, horizontally disposed, having distal and proximal ends, the proximal end of which is attached spaced down on the body, to said first band, the balance of the band being unattached, at least the distal end of said second band having an interior surface and an exterior surface, the interior surface having a hook portion, of a hook and pile closure;
- d. a third band, spaced from said first band around the circumference of said body, said third band comprising a pile portion of hook and pile closure, and secured vertically along the elevation of said body,
- whereby mounting to a bicycle is achieved by placing the device behind the stem and on top of the crossbar of the bicycle, wrapping said second band around the neck and engaging the hook portion of closure to said third band, and by wrapping the first band under the crossbar and releasably engaging its hook portion of closure to a pile portion of closure.
