Benefits of technology

[0007]A wall mountable liquid container has an elongated polymer bottle having an elongated body formed with an internal cavity and having two end portions and a side wall portion. The bottle body has a neck forming an opening on one end portion and has an elongated depression formed into the side thereof. The elongated depression in the side of the bottle is shaped to form a suction cup having a flexible surrounding edge protruding from the bottle side wall portion so that a liquid bottle can be rapidly attached to a wall surface with an integral suction cup. The body of the bottle is formed of a first polymer with the suction cup flexible surrounding edge formed as part of the bottle body with a second polymer, which second polymer may use the same polymer resin used in forming the bottle but with a plasticizer to increase its flexibility. The bottle neck can have a screw cap removably attached thereto. The body bottle may be formed of a first polymer with the bottle body suction cup flexibly surrounding edge formed of a second polymer and fixedly attached to the bottle body one side portion, such as by adhesively attaching the flexible surrounding edge to the bottle body. The bottle body may have indicia printed thereon.

Problems solved by technology

These bottles are typically too large to fit on built-in shelves and are typically left on the floor of a shower or on after-market shelves added to the shower or on ledges adjacent to the shower.

Embodiment Construction

[0014]Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawings, a wall mounted liquid container 10 has a body 11 having a neck 12 and a bottle cap 13 thereon. The bottle 11 is formed with a cavity therein and has a top end portion 14 and a bottom end portion 15 and has the bottle side 16. One side 17 of the bottle 10 forms a depression in the side thereof and has a flexible or compliant surrounding edge 18 forming a suction cup 20 in the side of the bottle 10. A release tab 29 is formed on one end of the surrounding edge 18 to release suction in the suction cup portion when removing the bottle from a wall. The suction cup portion 20 may have a generally flat surface 21 which may have indicia or advertising material 22 printed thereon. The bottle is illustrated attached to a wall 23 in FIG. 2 and is shown in an upright position but can as easily be attached in a downwardly facing direction. The cap 13 may also be a dispenser cap, as desired.

Abstract

A disposable wall mountable liquid container has an elongated polymer bottle having an internal cavity and a neck forming an opening on one end portion. An elongated depression is formed into one side thereof and shaped to form a suction cup having a flexible surrounding edge protruding therefrom of a material different from that of the bottle.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to a wall mountable liquid container and especially to a wall mountable bottle having an integrally formed suction cup for mounting a container on the wall.[0002]In the past, a wide variety of liquid containers have been provided made out of a polymer material and which were used for holding and dispensing liquids, such as shampoos, liquid soaps, and the like. It is common for a household to keep a number of such liquid bottles of different types in the shower or the bathroom for shampoo, hair conditioners, soaps and the like. These bottles are typically too large to fit on built-in shelves and are typically left on the floor of a shower or on after-market shelves added to the shower or on ledges adjacent to the shower. Bottles of this type are commonly made of polymer materials, such as polyvinylchloride or PVC and may be manufactured by blow molding, injection molding or various automated molding processes.[0003]There ...
