Method and apparatus for applying bottled liquid

Abstract

A method and apparatus for applying bottled liquid is described herein. The present invention contains a liquid applicator that, when not in use, is located with the container. The applicator cap can be attached in such a way to allow both usage and storage of the device, without additional caps.

1 . A liquid container comprising: 
 a body;    a bottom;    a sidewall;    a pour opening, the pour opening having at least one threaded portion;    an applicator cap, the applicator cap comprising: 
 a flow tube;  
 a first threaded portion;  
 a second threaded portion; and,  
 a brush, the flow tube having a tip that extends into the brush.  
   
   
   
       2 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein the pour opening is a neck.  
   
   
       3 . The container of  claim 2 , wherein the neck is threaded internally.  
   
   
       4 . The container of  claim 1 , wherein the first threaded portion and the second threaded portion are on opposite ends of the flow tube.  
   
   
       5 . The container of  claim 4 , wherein the first threaded portion is threaded in the opposite direction of the second threaded portion.  
   
   
       6 . An apparatus comprising: 
 a liquid applicator;    a first attachment device; and,    a second attachment device.    
   
   
       7 . The apparatus of  claim 6 , wherein the apparatus further comprises: 
 a flow tube, the flow tube having a tip that extends into the liquid applicator; and,    the first and second attachment devices are on opposite ends of the flow tube.    
   
   
       8 . The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein at least one of the attachment devices is threaded.  
   
   
       9 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the liquid applicator is a brush.  
   
   
       10 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the liquid applicator is an injector.  
   
   
       11 . The apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the apparatus further comprises: 
 a cap, the cap having a receptacle for receiving the flow tube.    
   
   
       12 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the apparatus further comprises: 
 a liquid container having a body, sidewalls, a neck, and a bottom, the neck having a threaded portion adapted to receive at least one of the attachment devices.    
   
   
       13 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the second attachment device is threaded in the opposite direction of the first attachment device.  
   
   
       14 . The apparatus of  claim 13 , wherein the threaded portion of the neck is inside the neck.  
   
   
       15 . A method for utilizing a liquid applicator, wherein the liquid applicator is contained within a closed liquid container, the container having a bottom, sidewalls, a neck, and a cap, the method comprising the steps of: 
 removing the cap from the container;    removing the liquid applicator from the container;    rotating the liquid applicator approximately 90° about a horizontal axis; and,    attaching the liquid applicator to the container.    
   
   
       16 . The method of  claim 15 , wherein a flow tube is partially located within the liquid applicator, the method further comprises the step of: 
 removing the flow tube from a receptacle in the cap.    
   
   
       17 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein removing the liquid applicator from the container further comprises the step of: 
 unscrewing the liquid applicator from the container, wherein the liquid applicator is a brush.    
   
   
       18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein attaching the liquid applicator to the container further comprises the step of: 
 screwing the brush to the container.    
   
   
       19 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein removing the liquid applicator from the container further comprises the step of: 
 unscrewing the liquid applicator from the container, wherein the liquid applicator is a syringe.    
   
   
       20 . The method of  claim 19 , wherein attaching the liquid applicator to the container further comprises the step of: 
 screwing the syringe to the container.
