Drinking Vessel For Containing a Liquid and Insulating a Bottle or Can

Abstract

The present disclosure may be embodied as a drinking vessel having an insulating body. The insulating body includes a cavity for containing a liquid. The cavity has a bottom and a cylindrical side wall. A top portion of the cylindrical side wall is internally threaded. The insulating body further includes a base with a storage mount. The storage mount is internally threaded. A lid having a drinking orifice is provided. The lid is externally threaded. The lid is configured to couple with the threads of the cavity or the threads of the storage mount such that the lid may be selectively coupled. The drinking vessel may further include a clamping ring. The clamping ring is externally threaded to couple with the cavity or the storage mount. The clamping ring is configured to cooperate with the cavity to secure a can or bottle within the cavity.

We claim: 
     
         1 . A drinking vessel, comprising:
 an insulating body, comprising:
 a cavity for containing a liquid, the cavity having a bottom and a cylindrical side wall, and wherein a top portion of the cylindrical side wall is internally threaded; and 
 a base having storage mount, wherein the storage mount is internally threaded; 
   a lid having a drinking orifice, the lid being externally threaded and wherein the lid is configured to couple with the threads of the cavity or the threads of the storage mount such that the lid may be selectively coupled.   
     
     
         2 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , further comprising a clamping ring, wherein the clamping ring is externally threaded to couple with the cavity or the storage mount, and wherein the clamping ring is configured to cooperate with the cavity to secure a can or bottle. 
     
     
         3 . The drinking vessel of  claim 2 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a standard bottle. 
     
     
         4 . The drinking vessel of  claim 3 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a U.S. industry standard bottle. 
     
     
         5 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a standard can. 
     
     
         6 . The drinking vessel of  claim 5 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a standard U.S. 12-ounce beverage can. 
     
     
         7 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein a top edge of the lid is flat. 
     
     
         8 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the body is vacuum insulated. 
     
     
         9 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein in the body is metal. 
     
     
         10 . The drinking vessel of  claim 1 , wherein the lid is plastic. 
     
     
         11 . A drinking vessel, comprising:
 an insulating body, comprising:
 a cavity for containing a liquid, the cavity having a bottom and a cylindrical side wall, and wherein a top portion of the cylindrical side wall is internally threaded; and 
 a base having storage mount, wherein the storage mount is internally threaded; 
   a clamping ring, wherein the clamping ring is externally threaded to couple with the cavity or the storage mount, and wherein the clamping ring is configured to cooperate with the cavity to secure a can or bottle.   
     
     
         12 . The drinking vessel of  claim 11 , further comprising a lid having a drinking orifice, the lid being externally threaded and wherein the lid is configured to couple with the threads of the cavity or the threads of the storage mount such that the lid may be selectively coupled. 
     
     
         13 . The drinking vessel of  claim 11 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a standard bottle. 
     
     
         14 . The drinking vessel of  claim 13 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a U.S. industry standard bottle. 
     
     
         15 . The drinking vessel of  claim 11 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a standard can. 
     
     
         16 . The drinking vessel of  claim 15 , wherein the cavity and the clamping ring are configured to secure a standard U.S. 12-ounce beverage can.
