Multiple-vessel container

Abstract

A container comprising an inner vessel disposed within an outer vessel, wherein the inner vessel embodies a three-dimensional design that can be viewed from the exterior of the outer vessel.

1 . A container, said container comprising: 
 a first fillable member; and    a second fillable member, said second fillable member disposed within said first fillable member, wherein said second fillable member defines a three-dimensional design.    
   
   
       2 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein each said fillable member of said container further comprises a neck member and a vessel member, and wherein said vessel member of said second fillable member is carried substantially within said vessel member of said first fillable member.  
   
   
       3 . The container of  claim 2 , further comprising a fill aperture, wherein said neck member of said first fillable member and said neck member of said second fillable member define said fill aperture.  
   
   
       4 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein said first fillable member is of a generally transparent nature and said design of said second fillable member is visible from the exterior of said first fillable member.  
   
   
       5 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein said first fillable member is formed from a solid material, said solid material selected from a group consisting of transparent material, translucent material, or a combination thereof.  
   
   
       6 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein said second fillable member shares at least one wall with said first fillable member.  
   
   
       7 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein said design of said second fillable member is selected from a group consisting of an animal, a mascot, a logo, an emblem, block-letters, or a combination thereof.  
   
   
       8 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein said design of said second fillable member is defined by a contoured surface.  
   
   
       9 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein said design of said second fillable member is defined by a substantially smooth, imprinted surface.  
   
   
       10 . The container of  claim 3 , further comprising a lid, said lid dimensioned to removably seal said fill aperture.  
   
   
       11 . A container, said container comprising: 
 a first fillable member; and    a second fillable member, said second fillable member disposed within said first fillable member, wherein said second fillable member is visible from the exterior of said first fillable member.    
   
   
       12 . The container of  claim 11 , wherein each said fillable member of said container further comprises a neck member and a vessel member, and wherein said vessel member of said fillable member is carried substantially within said vessel member of said first fillable member.  
   
   
       13 . The container of  claim 12 , further comprising a fill aperture, wherein said neck member of said first fillable member and said neck member of said second fillable member define said fill aperture.  
   
   
       14 . The container of  claim 11 , wherein said second fillable member defines a three-dimensional design.  
   
   
       15 . The container of  claim 11 , wherein said first fillable member is formed from a solid material, said solid material selected from a group consisting of transparent material, translucent material, or a combination thereof.  
   
   
       16 . The container of  claim 11 , wherein said second fillable member shares at least one wall with said first fillable member.  
   
   
       17 . The container of  claim 14 , wherein said design of said second fillable member is selected from a group consisting of an animal, a mascot, a logo, an emblem, block-letters, or a combination thereof.  
   
   
       18 . The container of  claim 14 , wherein said design of said second fillable member is defined by a contoured surface.  
   
   
       19 . The container of  claim 14 , wherein said design of said second fillable member is defined by a substantially smooth, imprinted surface.  
   
   
       20 . The container of  claim 13 , further comprising a lid, said lid dimensioned to removably seal said fill aperture.  
   
   
       21 . A method for holding a plurality of beverages within one container, said method comprising the steps of: 
 (a) obtaining a multiple-vessel container comprising a lid, a first vessel, and a second vessel, said second vessel defining a three-dimensional design;    (b) filling said first vessel with a first beverage;    (c) filling said second vessel with a second beverage;    (d) closing said container via said lid.    
   
   
       22 . The method of  claim 21 , wherein said second vessel of said multiple-vessel container is positioned within said first vessel.
