The snap-on spout is attached to the bottle central part with a non-circular snap-fit attachment surface.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1  A bottle comprising:
 a bottle central part having bottle base, an enclosed handle on a bottle handle side surface, and a bottle top fitment, the bottle top fitment having a bottle filling fitment with a horizontal bottle filling fitment opening parallel to the bottle base;   a one-piece, snap-on spout fluidly connected to the bottle filling fitment at the bottle filling fitment opening and attached to the bottle central part with a non-circular snap-fit attachment surface, wherein the snap-on spout has a nozzle fitment with a pouring orifice directed away from the handle; and   a child-resistant pouring nozzle having a spout opening and attached to the nozzle fitment;   wherein the spout opening is directed at an acute angle greater than 0 degrees but less than 90 degrees, where the angle is measured between a ray from the spout opening highest point and parallel to the bottle base and a ray from the spout opening highest point across the spout opening.   
     
     
         2 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the spout opening is beveled. 
     
     
         3 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the non-circular snap-fit attachment surface is non-planar. 
     
     
         4 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the spout opening is directed at an acute angle greater than 0 degrees and less than 60 degrees. 
     
     
         5 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the spout opening is directed at an acute angle greater than 0 degrees and less than 45 degrees. 
     
     
         6 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the snap-on spout fitment has a pouring column attached to the bottle filling fitment. 
     
     
         7 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment between the bottle central part and the non-circular snap-fit attachment surface is a non-removable snap-fit attachment. 
     
     
         8 . The bottle of  claim 1 , wherein the snap-on spout is partially transparent. 
     
     
         9 . A bottle comprising:
 a bottle central part having bottle base, an enclosed handle on a bottle handle side surface, and a bottle top fitment, the bottle top having a bottle filling fitment with a horizontal bottle filling fitment opening parallel to the bottle base;   a one-piece, snap-on spout fluidly connected to the bottle filling fitment at the bottle filling fitment opening and attached to the bottle central part with a non-circular snap-fit fitment attachment surface, where the snap-on spout has a nozzle fitment with a pouring orifice; and   a child-resistant pouring nozzle having a spout opening and threadably attached to the nozzle fitment, so that the nozzle may threadably rotate axially along a nozzle fitment neck portion of the nozzle fitment.   
     
     
         10 . The bottle of  claim 9 , wherein the nozzle may be rotated from a closed position to an open position in order to access the contents of the bottle central part upon which the snap-on spout is disposed. 
     
     
         11 . The bottle of  claim 9 , wherein the nozzle fitment has a stopping mechanism preventing the threadable removal of the nozzle from the nozzle fitment. 
     
     
         12 . The bottle of  claim 11 , wherein the stopping mechanism is a lug stop on the nozzle fitment that interacts with a drop lug on the nozzle. 
     
     
         13 . The bottle of  claim 9 , wherein the nozzle includes an inner wall having at least one thread projecting from an inner surface and threadably connected to the nozzle fitment and an outer wall having at least one child-resistant lock interacting with a child-resistant stop the nozzle fitment. 
     
     
         14 . A bottle comprising:
 a bottle central part having bottle base, an enclosed handle on a bottle handle side surface, and a bottle top fitment, the bottle top fitment having a bottle filling fitment with a horizontal bottle filling fitment opening parallel to the bottle base; and   a snap-on spout fitment fluidly connected to the bottle filling fitment at the bottle filling fitment opening and attached to the bottle central part with a non-circular snap-fit fitment attachment surface, where the snap-on spout has a nozzle fitment with a pouring orifice directed away from the handle.   
     
     
         15 . The bottle of  claim 14 , wherein the snap-on spout has a refill channel. 
     
     
         16 . The bottle of  claim 14 , wherein the snap-on spout has a storage venting means. 
     
     
         17 . The bottle of  claim 14 , wherein the top of the snap-on spout is substantially parallel to the bottle base. 
     
     
         18 . The bottle of  claim 14 , wherein a child-resistant measuring cup is attached to the nozzle fitment. 
     
     
         19 . The bottle of  claim 14 , wherein the handle is an easy-grip handle having a thumb pad on the handle exterior and a forefinger alignment recess on the handle interior.
