Claims29
A reusable two compartment drink bottle for a consumable beverage and adapted to at least one of heat and cool the consumable beverage, the drink bottle comprising:
- a first compartment defining a cavity adapted to hold the consumable beverage, the first compartment comprising:
- an inner panel forming the cavity;
- an outer panel, in combination with the inner panel, forms a chamber generally coextensive with the outer panel;
- and
- a thermal energy storage material located within the chamber;
- a second compartment detachably secured to the first compartment and adapted to hold at least one additive, the second compartment comprises at least one channel that is moveable between a first position, in which the at least one channel is positioned to form at least one passageway connecting the first and second compartments, and a second position, in which the at least one channel is positioned so that the first and second compartments are separated;
- a lid detachably engaged with the second compartment, wherein the drink bottle is adapted to allow consumable beverage from the first compartment to enter the second compartment when the at least one channel is in the first position.

A reusable two compartment drink bottle for a consumable beverage, the drink bottle comprising:
- a first compartment defining a cavity adapted to hold the consumable beverage;
- a second compartment located on the first compartment and adapted to hold at least one additive, the second compartment comprises at least one channel that is moveable between a first position, in which the at least one channel is positioned to form at least one passageway connecting the first and second compartments, and a second position, in which the at least one channel is positioned so that the first and second compartments are separated;
- a lid detachably engaged with the second compartment, the drink bottle is adapted to allow consumable beverage from the first compartment to enter the second compartment when the at least one channel is in the first position, wherein the at least one channel is moved between the first and second positions by rotating the lid.
A method of assembling a drink bottle, comprising:
- providing a first compartment defining a cavity adapted to hold a consumable beverage therein, the first compartment defining a mouth;
- providing a second compartment adapted to hold at least one additive;
- attaching the second compartment to the first compartment such that the mouth can be sealed closed;
- attaching a lid to the second compartment, wherein rotating the lid in a first direction results in the creation of at least one passageway between the first and second compartments and rotating the lid in a second, opposite direction results in separating the first and second compartments, wherein operation of the drink bottle does not reduce the drink bottle's capability of again separating the first and second compartments of the drinking bottle thus allowing the drinking bottle to be reused to again keep another consumable beverage and another at least one additive separate using the first and second compartments.
