Bottle and stand for removing contents from bottle
Abstract
The present invention is a liquid dispenser, with an inner container, and an outer housing. The inner container is designed to hold a bottle in an inverted position so the liquid stuck at the bottom of the bottle may be emptied into the inner container. The inner container also includes an inner surface designed to draw liquid to the center of the inner container. This reduces the amount of liquid that gets stuck at the bottom of the inner container and allows a user to extract all of the liquid from the inner container. The outer housing is designed to cover the inner container hold a pump and cover the inner container. The lotion dispenser also includes suction cups to secure the inner container to a surface and be self-supporting.
Claims

2 . The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the inner container further comprises an inner bottom surface, wherein the inner bottom surface comprises a location, and the inner bottom surface is configured to draw the material towards the location.
3 . The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the opening of the inner container is configured to expand to a size of the bottle.
4 . The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the pump further comprises a top designed to support the pump and the outer housing when the outer housing is inverted.
5 . The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein the inner container further comprises threading on an exterior surface, and the outer housing further comprises threading on an interior surface, the threading of the inner container designed to threadably couple to the threading of the outer housing.
6 . The dispenser of claim 1 , wherein a top end of the at least one sidewall defines the opening of the inner container, the top of the at least one sidewall comprising at least one flexible bottle receiver, wherein the at least one flexible bottle receiver is designed to conform to the shape of the bottle when the bottle is inserted into the opening of the inner container.
7 . The dispenser of claim 6 , wherein each flexible bottle receiver comprises a first portion and a second portion, wherein the first portion is coupled to the top end of the at least one sidewall, and the second portion is coupled to the first portion at an angle.
8 . The dispenser of claim 7 , wherein the angle is an angle between 0 and 90 degrees.
9 . The dispenser of claim 1 , further comprising at least one suction cup coupled to the bottom of the inner container.
10 . A liquid dispenser comprising:
an inner container configured to hold a liquid, comprising a top opening, at least one sidewall, a bottom, threading on an exterior surface, and an inner bottom surface comprising a location, wherein the top opening is designed to receive a top of a bottle; an outer housing comprising a top opening, a bottom opening, threading on an interior surface and an interior volume; and a pump comprising a bottom aperture and a top aperture, wherein the inner container is designed to be inserted into the interior volume of the outer housing through the bottom opening of the outer housing, and wherein the pump is coupled to the top opening of the outer housing, the bottom aperture is disposed in the inner container, the top aperture is disposed outside of the outer housing, and the pump is designed to draw liquid into the bottom aperture, and the pump is designed to dispense liquid through the top aperture, and wherein the inner bottom surface comprises a profile configured to draw liquid towards the location.
11 . The liquid dispenser of claim 10 , wherein the location of the inner bottom surface is a location on the inner bottom surface closest to the bottom of the container.
12 . The liquid dispenser of claim 11 , wherein the location of the inner bottom surface is the center of the inner bottom surface.
13 . The liquid dispenser of claim 11 , wherein the location of the inner bottom surface is located where the inner bottom surface meets the sidewall.
14 . The liquid dispenser of claim 10 , wherein the profile of the inner bottom surface is v-shaped.
15 . The liquid dispenser of claim 10 , wherein the profile of the inner bottom surface is a semicircle.
16 . A liquid dispenser comprising:
a bottle; an inner container configured to hold a liquid, comprising a top opening, at least one sidewall, a bottom, and an inner bottom surface comprising a location, wherein the top opening is designed to receive a top of the bottle, and the bottom of the inner container forms the bottom of the liquid dispenser, and wherein a top of the at least one sidewalls define the top opening, the top of the at least one sidewalls comprising at least one flexible bottle receiver, wherein the at least one flexible bottle receiver is designed to conform to the shape of the bottle when the bottle is inserted into the top opening of the inner container; an outer housing comprising a top opening, a bottom opening, and an interior volume; and a pump comprising a bottom aperture and a top aperture, wherein the inner container is designed to be inserted into the interior volume of the outer housing through the bottom opening of the outer housing, and the threading of the inner container designed to threadably couple to the treading of the outer housing, and wherein the pump is coupled to the top opening of the outer housing, the bottom aperture is disposed in the inner container, the top aperture is disposed outside of the outer housing, and the pump is designed to draw liquid into the bottom aperture, and the pump is designed to dispense liquid through the top aperture, and wherein the inner bottom surface comprises a v-shaped profile configured to draw liquid towards the location.
17 . The liquid dispenser of claim 16 , wherein the pump further comprises a pump head, wherein the top aperture is coupled to the pump head, and the pump head at least two semi-spherical extrusions designed to support the pump and the outer housing when the outer housing is inverted.
18 . The liquid dispenser of claim 16 , wherein the pump head is a triangle shape.
19 . The liquid dispenser of claim 16 , wherein the pump draws liquid into the bottom aperture, and dispenses liquid through the top aperture when a downward force is applied to the pump head.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
