Beverage container formed of stackable interlocking single-serving container segments

Abstract

A beverage container is formed of a stacked array of interlocking single-serving container segments which allows indefinite storage of the container segments and which facilitates access to the beverage contained within a selected container segment without compromising the remaining quantities of the beverage

That which is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A beverage container comprising a plurality of stackable, interlocking, single-serving container segments, each of said container segments including;
 a confined interior beverage-receiving volume,   an upper engagement portion,   a lower engagement portion,   a bottleneck, and   a bottleneck receiving receptacle,   said plurality of said container segments constructed to be joined in a stacked array in which each container segment is removably joined to a container segment below it by the engagement of its lower engagement portion to the upper engagement portion of a container segment below it to form said beverage container in which said confined interior beverage receiving volumes each maintain a quantity of beverage in an individual sealed containment and in which each of said container segments may be removed from an engaged container segment to allow access to a single confined interior beverage receiving volume.   
     
     
         2 . A beverage container comprising:
 a first container segment including;
 a first confined interior beverage-receiving volume, 
 a first upper engagement portion, 
 a first bottleneck receptacle extending upwardly into said first confined interior beverage receiving volume; 
 a first lower engagement portion, and 
 a first bottleneck; 
   a second container segment including; and
 a second confined interior beverage-receiving volume, a second bottleneck receptacle extending upwardly into said second confined interior beverage receiving volume; 
 a second upper engagement portion, 
 a second lower engagement portion, and 
 a second bottleneck, 
   said first container segment being removably joined to said second container segment, such that said second bottleneck extends into said first bottleneck receptacle, by the engagement of said first lower engagement portion and said second upper engagement portion to form said beverage container in which said first and second confined interior beverage receiving volumes each maintain a quantity of beverage in an individual scaled containment and in which each of said first and second container segments may be removed from an engaged container segment to allow access to a single confined interior beverage receiving volume.   
     
     
         3 . A beverage container comprising:
 a first container segment including;
 a first confined interior beverage-receiving volume, 
 a first centered upwardly extending neck; 
 a first bottleneck receptacle extending upwardly into said first confined interior beverage receiving volume; 
 a first lower engagement portion, and 
   a second container segment including;
 a second confined interior beverage-receiving volume, 
 a second centered upwardly extending neck; 
 a second bottleneck receptacle extending upwardly into said second confined interior beverage receiving volume; 
 a second lower engagement portion; 
   a third container segment including;
 a third confined interior beverage-receiving volume, 
 a third centered upwardly extending neck; 
 a third bottleneck receptacle extending upwardly into said third confined interior beverage receiving volume; 
 a third lower engagement portion, 
   said first container segment being removably joined to said second container segment by the engagement of said first lower engagement portion and said second upper engagement portion and said second container segment being removably joined to said third container segment by the engagement of said second lower engagement portion and said third upper engagement portion, said first, second and third container segments combining to form said beverage container in which said first, second and third confined interior beverage receiving volumes each maintain a quantity of beverage in an individual sealed containment and in which each of said first, second and third container segments may be removed from an engaged container segment to allow access to a single confined interior beverage receiving volume.
