Drinking vessels

Abstract

An example of a drinking vessel is provided. The drinking vessel include a base for resting on a surface. In addition, the drinking vessel includes a stability enhancer disposed within the base to increase stability of the base on the surface. Furthermore, the drinking vessel includes a stem extending from the base. The drinking vessel also includes a bowl resting on the stem. The bowl is to receive a liquid for consumption. Additionally, the drinking vessel includes a connector disposed between the bowl to the stem, wherein the connector is to releasably connect the bowl to the stem.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A drinking vessel comprising:
 a base for resting on a surface;   a stability enhancer disposed within the base to increase stability of the base on the surface;   a stem extending from the base;   a bowl resting on the stem, wherein the bowl is to receive a liquid for consumption; and   a connector disposed between the bowl to the stem, wherein the connector is to releasably connect the bowl to the stem.   
     
     
         2 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the stability enhancer is a weight. 
     
     
         3 . The drinking vessel of  claim 2 , wherein the weight is removably secured with a clip. 
     
     
         4 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the stability enhancer is a magnet to engage the surface. 
     
     
         5 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the connector comprises a channel to receive a protrusion. 
     
     
         6 . The drinking vessel of  claim 5 , wherein the channel comprises a locking mechanism disposed within the channel to secure the protrusion at a position relative to the channel. 
     
     
         7 . The drinking vessel of  claim 6 , wherein the locking mechanism is a recess in the channel to receive the protrusion. 
     
     
         8 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the base and the bowl are plastic. 
     
     
         9 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the bowl is stackable with a second bowl, wherein the second bowl is substantially similar to the bowl. 
     
     
         10 . An apparatus comprising:
 a bottom;   a wall extending upward from the bottom, the wall to hold a liquid;   a rim to define an opening at a top of the wall; and   a connector mechanism disposed at the bottom, wherein the connector mechanism is to releasably connect to a base to rest on a surface, and wherein the base includes a stability enhancer to increase stability.   
     
     
         11 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the connector mechanism comprises a channel to receive a protrusion. 
     
     
         12 . The apparatus of  claim 11 , wherein the channel comprises a locking mechanism disposed within the channel to secure the protrusion at a position relative to the channel. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 12 , wherein the locking mechanism is a recess in the channel to receive the protrusion. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the connector mechanism comprises a protrusion to be received in a channel. 
     
     
         15 . The apparatus of  claim 14 , wherein the protrusion is to engage a locking mechanism in the channel to secure the connector mechanism to the base. 
     
     
         16 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the apparatus is formed from a unitary body of plastic. 
     
     
         17 . The apparatus of  claim 10 , wherein the apparatus is stackable with a second apparatus, wherein the second apparatus is substantially similar to the apparatus. 
     
     
         18 . An apparatus comprising:
 a base for resting on a surface;   a stability enhancer disposed within the base to increase stability of the base on the surface;   a stem extending from the base; and   a connector mechanism disposed between on the stem at an end opposite to the base, wherein the connector mechanism is to releasably connect a bowl to the stem, wherein the bowl is to receive a liquid for consumption.   
     
     
         19 . The apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the connector mechanism comprises a channel to receive a protrusion. 
     
     
         20 . The apparatus of  claim 18 , wherein the connector mechanism comprises a protrusion to be received in a channel.
