Abstract

A spillage free fluid bottle has a partition plate with a first opening to allow the bottle to be tilted to a horizontal position with the outlet sprout positioned at the lowest position without fluid escaping out of the bottle. A second opening in the partition plate allows fluid to be injected into the lower reservoir section of the bottle during filling process of the bottle. The second opening is sealed by an insert, which is assembled into the fluid bottle after filling process.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A spillage free fluid bottle comprises:
 a enclosure body having an integrally connected sprout for transporting fluid, in which, said sprout is located at the top of said enclosure body adjacent to a first side wall of said enclosure body; and   a horizontal partition plate integrally connected to said enclosure body within said enclosure body, in which, said partition plate divides the internal volume of said enclosure body into an upper and lower sections, said partition plate has a first opening adjacent to a second side wall of said enclosure body opposite to said first side wall of said enclosure body, and said partition plate has a second opening centered along the vertical center line of said sprout; and   a insert body made of a hollow cylinder having a top opening end, a plurality of peripheral openings in midsection, and a closed bottom with tapered end that matches the tapered end of said second opening of said partition plate; and said insert body having an internal flow passage for transporting fluid between said top opening end and said peripheral openings;   Wherein:   fluid being injected directly into said lower section of said enclosure body through said sprout and said second opening of said partition plate prior to assembling said insert body into said fluid bottle; and   said insert body being assembled into said fluid bottle after a filling process, in which, said second opening of said partition plate is completely sealed by said tapered end of said closed bottom of said insert body; and   said fluid bottle capable of being tilted 90 degree so that said sprout is positioned horizontally at relatively the lowest elevation of said fluid bottle without fluid escaping out of said fluid bottle.   
   
   
       2 . In  claim 1 , said insert body also has first external threads at said top opening end for receiving a screw cap, a collar projected radially outward so that a capping machine can grip onto said collar to assemble said insert body into said fluid bottle, and second external threads in midsection between said collar and said peripheral openings; and said sprout has internal threads so that said insert body is assembled into said fluid bottle through thread engagement between said internal threads of said sprout and said second external threads of said insert body. 
   
   
       3 . In  claim 1 , said insert body also has external right hand threads at said top opening end for receiving a screw cap, a collar projected radially outward so that a capping machine can grip onto said collar to assemble said insert body into said fluid bottle, and external left hand threads in midsection between said collar and said peripheral openings; and said sprout has internal left hand threads so that said insert body is assembled into said fluid bottle through thread engagement between said internal left hand threads of said sprout and said second external left hand threads of said insert body. 
   
   
       4 . In  claim 1 , said sprout has external threads for receiving a screw cap, and said insert body is assembled into said fluid bottle by pushing with force before said screw cap being assembled onto said sprout. 
   
   
       5 . In  claims 2  and  3 , said screw cap is pre-assembled onto said insert body prior to assembling said insert body into said fluid bottle. 
   
   
       6 . In  claims 2  and  3 , said screw cap is assembled onto said insert body after assembling said insert body into said fluid bottle. 
   
   
       7 . In  claim 1 , a graphical marking is provided on the outer surface of said fluid bottle for indicating the proper direction for tilting said fluid bottle during pouring.
