Description
RELEASABLE BOTTLE HANDLE
[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional
Application 61/524,318 filed on Aug. 16, 2011, the entire
disclosure of which is incorporated by reference.
TECHNICAL FIELD & BACKGROUND
[0002] A two liter bottle is relatively awkward and cumbersome for
pouring liquid that is contained in the two liter bottle into a
drink receptacle and is typically used with two hands in contrast
to using one hand for pouring a liquid out of a relatively smaller
bottle. Two liter bottles collapse once a cap is removed from the
two liter bottle and the gauge of the plastic of the two liter
bottle still cannot facilitate a user's grip without using 2 hands
to secure the weight and volume of the liquid in the two liter
bottle for pouring.
[0003] The present invention generally relates to a handle. More
specifically, the invention is a releasable bottle handle.
[0004] It is an object of the invention to provide a releasable
bottle handle that can be relatively easily and quickly utilized to
facilitate pouring liquid contained in a two liter bottle.
[0005] It is an object of the invention to provide a releasable
bottle handle that can be utilized to carry and pour liquid
contained in a two liter bottle with one hand.
[0006] It is an object of the invention to provide a releasable
bottle handle that is machine washable and relatively durable and
inexpensive to use.
[0007] What is really needed is a releasable bottle handle that can
be relatively easily and quickly utilized to facilitate pouring
liquid contained in a two liter bottle that can be utilized to
carry and pour liquid contained in a two liter bottle with one hand
that is machine washable and relatively durable and inexpensive to
use.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATIVE EMBODIMENTS
[0012] Various aspects of the illustrative embodiments will be
described using terms commonly employed by those skilled in the art
to convey the substance of their work to others skilled in the art.
However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the
present invention may be practiced with only some of the described
aspects. For purposes of explanation, specific numbers, materials
and configurations are set forth in order to provide a thorough
understanding of the illustrative embodiments. However, it will be
apparent to one skilled in the art that the present invention may
be practiced without the specific details. In other instances,
well-known features are omitted or simplified in order not to
obscure the illustrative embodiments.
[0013] Various operations will be described as multiple discrete
operations, in turn, in a manner that is most helpful in
understanding the present invention, however, the order of
description should not be construed as to imply that these
operations are necessarily order dependent. In particular, these
operations need not be performed in the order of presentation.
[0014] The phrase "in one embodiment" is used repeatedly. The
phrase generally does not refer to the same embodiment, however, it
may. The terms "comprising", "having" and "including" are
synonymous, unless the context dictates otherwise.
[0015] FIG. 1A illustrates an environmental side perspective view
of a releasable bottle handle 100, in accordance with one
embodiment of the present invention.
[0016] The releasable bottle handle 100 includes a rectangular
fabric wrap 110, a hook and loop fastener 120 and a handle 130. The
rectangular fabric wrap 110 has a first end 112, a second end 114
and a middle portion 116. The rectangular fabric wrap 110 is
wrapped and releasably secured around a two liter bottle TLB. The
rectangular fabric wrap 110 is made of nylon but can be made of
stretchable fabric such as SPANDEX.TM. stretchable synthetic fabric
or other suitable material. The rectangular fabric wrap 110 is
approximately 15 inches in width and approximately 41/2 inches in
height but can be any other suitable dimensions. The hook and loop
fastener 120 includes a hook portion 122 and a loop portion 124 and
the hook portion 122 is disposed on the first end 112 of the
rectangular fabric wrap 110 and the loop portion 124 is disposed on
the second end 114 of the rectangular fabric wrap 110. The hook and
loop fastener 120 releasably fastens when the first end 112 and the
hook portion 122 and the second end 114 and the loop portion 124 of
the rectangular fabric wrap 110 are in contact. The hook and loop
fastener 120 releases when the first end 112 and the hook portion
122 and the second end 114 and the loop portion 124 of the
rectangular fabric wrap 110 are separated typically by hand. The
hook portion 122 and a loop portion 124 of the hook and loop
fastener 120 are sewn onto the first end 112 and the second end 114
of the rectangular fabric wrap 110 with nylon thread 121 for added
strength and waterproofing. The handle 130 has a middle portion 132
and is disposed on the middle portion 116 of the rectangular fabric
wrap 110 and is grasped by a user with a user's one hand to lift
and transport a two liter bottle TLB relatively easier than
grasping and transporting the two liter bottle TLB with a user's
two hands. The handle 130 has a plastic channel 134 in the middle
portion 132 of the handle 130 to facilitate the user grasping and
transporting the two liter bottle TLB with the user's one hand. The
handle 130 also protrudes horizontally from the rectangular fabric
wrap 110 to facilitate the user grasping and transporting the two
liter bottle TLB with the user's one hand.
[0017] FIG. 1B illustrates a top environmental perspective view of
a releasable bottle handle 100, in accordance with one embodiment
of the present invention.
[0018] The releasable bottle handle 100 illustrated and described
in FIG. 1B has a similar rectangular fabric wrap 110, hook and loop
fastener 120 and handle 130 to the releasable bottle handle 100,
rectangular fabric wrap 110, hook and loop fastener 120 and handle
130 illustrated and described in FIG. 1A.
[0019] FIG. 1C illustrates a top perspective view of a releasable
bottle handle 100, in accordance with one embodiment of the present
invention.
[0020] The releasable bottle handle 100 illustrated and described
in FIG. 1C has a similar rectangular fabric wrap 110, hook and loop
fastener 120 and handle 130 to the releasable bottle handle 100,
rectangular fabric wrap 110, hook and loop fastener 120 and handle
130 illustrated and described in FIG. 1A.
[0021] The releasable bottle handle utilizes a nylon fabric wrap
with a hook and loop fastener on both ends of the nylon fabric wrap
and a handle sewn in at approximately half of the length of the
nylon fabric wrap that is secured around a 2 liter soft drink
bottle by the ends of the nylon fabric wrap. The releasable bottle
handle provides a carrying handle for a two liter bottle for
pouring with one hand. The releasable bottle handle is machine
washable, relatively durable and inexpensive to use. The releasable
bottle handle requires only enough strength to fasten the two hook
and loop ends.
[0022] While the present invention has been related in terms of the
foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art will recognize that
the invention is not limited to the embodiments described. The
present invention can be practiced with modification and alteration
within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. Thus, the
description is to be regarded as illustrative instead of
restrictive on the present invention.
