Benefits of technology

[0005] Accordingly, the present invention has been made keeping in mind the above problems occurring in the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a bottle in which two or more different materials can be effectively mixed in addition to being independently stored.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a bottle with which the user can mix an additive with a base material at an accurate ratio and enjoy new and various tastes resulting from the mixing.
[0012] It is possible to form the guiding conduit separately and to tighten the guiding conduit to the inside of the first protrusion through a screw-type engagement.
[0042] In the inlet, an anti-backflow valve is provided for prevent the additive in the additive container from flowing downwards into the bottle body.
[0043] The anti-backflow valve allows the contents of the bottle body to flow into the additive container but prevents the reverse progress. The anti-backflow valve includes a valve body which extends from the inlet toward the accommodation space in the axial direction, said valve body having a closed end and a holed side wall in which a valve hole is formed, a valvule positioned within the valve body to move in the axial direction so as to open or close the valve hole, and a protrusion ring, formed around the inner circumferential surface of the inlet, preventing the valvule from being separated from the valve body.

Problems solved by technology

Most beverage articles currently for sale, however, are difficult to apply additives to.
Thus, the customer may not be satisfied with the coffee drinks provided.

first embodiment

[0078] A bottle having a mixing means according to the present invention is shown in an exploded cross sectional view of FIG. 1 illustrating the entire structure, a cross sectional view of FIG. 2 illustrating a combined state, and a plan view of FIG. 3 illustrating a communication passage.

[0079] As seen in the figures, a bottle in accordance with the first embodiment of the present invention comprises a bottle body 100 having a mouth 110, an adaptor 200 which is detachably inserted into the mouth 110, an additive container 300 which is detachably combined with the adaptor 200 at one portion and has an open accommodation space 302 to contain an additive therein at the other portion, a communication passage which is adapted to communicate the accommodation space 302 via the adaptor 200 to the inside of the bottle body 100 or to prevent this communication using a screw-type engagement, a cover 400 which openably covers the additive container 300 at the open end and has at least one dis...

second embodiment

[0096] Referring to FIG. 6, there is a cross sectional view showing the structure of a bottle in accordance with the present invention. This structure makes it easy to mix the contents with the additive and allows a consumer to drink the contents and the additive separately or mixed using a straw.

[0097] As in the previous embodiment, the bottle according to the embodiment is generally comprised of a bottle body 100, an adaptor 200, an additive container 300, and a cover 400.

[0098] The adaptor 200 comprises an engagement portion 240 which can be removably combined with the mouth of the bottle body, and a cylindrical support 250 which extends from the engagement portion 240 at a predetermined angle in external radial and axial directions with a locking ring 252 formed around the external circumferential surface thereof. A lower blocking panel 260 which blocks the flow of the contents in the axial direction is integrated into the support 250. At the center of the lower blocking panel ...

third embodiment

[0109] With reference to FIG. 8, there is an exploded cross sectional view showing the structure of a bottle according to the present invention. In the bottle of this embodiment, an additive container is integrated into an adaptor. Thus, the bottle is generally comprised of a bottle body 100, an additive container 600, and a cover 400.

[0110] Outlined by a support 620, the additive container 600 is generally in a cylindrical form and has a funnel configuration at the bottom. At the end of the funnel, an engagement 610 is provided which is internally threaded and removably combined with the mouth 110 of the bottle body 100. Acting as a bottom septum for an accommodation space, a blocking panel 630 is integrally formed within the support 620. The blocking panel 630 protrudes at a central portion to form a hemispherical protrusion, around the circumference of which a plurality of communication holes 642 is preferably provided. Similar to the 2-1 embodiment, this bottle itself is for sal...

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a bottle capable of storing or mixing two or more different materials. The bottle results from the combination of a general bottle body with a mixing means including an openable additive container. The bottle body may be separated from the additive container so that different materials can be separately stored and then combined with each other upon use. Thus, the bottle can open new markets due to its greatly enhanced storage performance and economical advantages.
