AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing containers for storing multiple liquids are cumbersome and experience an eccentric gravitational force when drinking from one volume while the other is partially filled, necessitating separate vessels for each liquid.

Method used

A container design featuring two hollow bodies with fixedly connected base portions, allowing for a single container to hold two liquids and ensuring a central normal force during drinking, with symmetrical dimensions and rotational symmetry for ease of use.

Benefits of technology

Enables convenient transportation and drinking from a single container with two volumes, eliminating eccentric gravitational forces and simplifying carrying multiple liquids.

Claims

[1] Container (101) with a first hollow body (103) and a second hollow body (203), wherein the first hollow body (103) has an opening (109) that can be temporarily closed by means of a first screw cap (107) and a bottom section (111) arranged opposite the opening (109) in a longitudinal direction (L) of the first hollow body (103), and wherein the second hollow body (203) has an opening (209) that can be temporarily closed by means of a second screw cap (207) and a bottom section (211) arranged opposite the opening (209) in the longitudinal direction (L) of the second hollow body (203), characterized by that the bottom section (111) of the first hollow body (103) is fixedly arranged on the bottom section (211) of the second hollow body (203) and essentially covers the entire surface thereof. [2] Container (101) according to the preceding claim, wherein the first hollow body (103) has a first shape with a substantially cylindrical form and a substantially transparent material, in particular glass. [3] Container (101) according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the first screw cap (107) and / or the second screw cap (207) is formed as a base of the container (101). [4] Container (101) according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the first hollow body (103) and / or the second hollow body (203) is or are substantially rotationally symmetrical. [5] Container (101) according to one of the preceding claims, wherein a diameter of the first hollow body (103) is greater than a diameter of the second hollow body (203) and / or the diameter of the first hollow body (103) and the diameter of the second hollow body (203) are of the same size. [6] Container (101) according to the preceding claim, wherein a diameter of the first screw cap (107) and the diameter of the first hollow body (103) are substantially the same size and / or a diameter of the second screw cap (207) and the diameter of the second hollow body (203) are substantially the same size. [7] Container (101) according to the preceding claim, wherein the diameter of the first hollow body (103) corresponds to the diameter of the second hollow body (203). [8] Container (101) according to one of the preceding claims, wherein an outer surface (205) of the second hollow body (203) is designed as a first hand-resting surface of the container (101) and / or an outer surface (105) of the first hollow body (103) is designed as a second hand-resting surface. [9] Container (101) according to the preceding claim, wherein a surface treatment or surface structure is applied to the entire surface (205) of the second hollow body (203) and / or to the entire surface (105) of the first hollow body (103) and the first hand support surface and / or the second hand support surface thus has an improved grip. [10] Container (101) according to one of the preceding claims, wherein the container (101) is a drinking vessel with two openings (109, 209).
