AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Users need to carry two separate containers for exercising and drinking coffee, which is cumbersome and not environmentally friendly, as traditional single-use containers are being replaced by reusable ones.

Method used

A drinks container with an adapter that can be switched between an upright configuration for drinking from a central outlet and an inverted configuration for sipping from the rim, featuring a tether to securely attach the closure and prevent loss, allowing the same container to serve both functions.

Benefits of technology

The solution provides a single, versatile container that can replace two separate items, enhancing convenience and sustainability by allowing seamless switching between exercise bottle and coffee cup use without the risk of the closure being lost.

Abstract

A drinks container comprises a container body having a side wall terminating in a rim forming an open top, and an adapter mounted on the container body. The adapter is interchangeable between a first upright configuration where it forms a central primary outlet, and a second inverted configuration in which the adapter forms a secondary outlet adjacent the rim of the container for enabling a user to sip a drink from the rim of the container. The drinks container may further include a strap mounted on the container body that is releasably mountable to the closure for tethering the closure to the container body so that it is not physically separated from the container during use and is therefore not prone to getting lost.
