Abstract: A beverage container is disclosed with a cap body having an upper straw with an incorporated valve that moves upward and downward to toggle between an open and closed position and a lower straw that is stationary within the cap body. Hermetic seals are formed between the straw bodies and cap body that allow the proper operation of a straw that opens, allowing fluid to flow through the straw bodies, and closes, stopping the flow of fluid through the straw bodies.
Abstract: A flexible container device, comprising a container top portion having a top footprint, a container bottom having a bottom footprint, and a flexible reservoir body in between the container top portion and the container bottom. The flexible reservoir body can be formed by a flexible panel folded and attached to itself along one or more body seams extending along a length of the flexible reservoir body. The flexible reservoir body can be collapsible and foldable.

Abstract: A fluid container is disclosed with a cap body made of rigid or semi rigid material and a valve body disposed within the cap body and movable between and open and closed position. The valve body is made of a semi flexible semi rigid material that has a coefficient of thermal linear expansion that is smaller than that of the cap body. The cap body and nozzle valve are configured with three different hermetic seals to counteract the effects of exposure to heat and cold over time and thereby extend the useful life of the cap and valve.
Abstract: A flexible container device, comprising a container top portion having a substantially oval top footprint, a flexible container bottom having a substantially oval bottom footprint, wherein the flexible container bottom is foldable, and a flexible reservoir body in between the container top portion and the flexible container bottom. The flexible reservoir body can be coupled to the container top portion by a top perimeter seam and coupled to the flexible container bottom by a bottom perimeter seam. The flexible reservoir body can be formed by a flexible panel folded and attached to itself along one or more body seams extending along a length of the flexible reservoir body. The flexible reservoir body can be collapsible and foldable.
Abstract: A connection device is disclosed comprising a receptor having a recess; a securing clip at least partially inside the recess and comprising a clip head and a pair of clip legs, wherein the clip head has a receiving portion, wherein a portion of each of the pair of clip legs intrudes into a channel space of the connection device when the securing clip is in an unbiased configuration; and a dial comprising a first side and a second side, wherein the dial comprises a catch, wherein the catch is configured to intrude into the receiving portion, and wherein the dial is configured to strain the securing clip into a release configuration when the dial is rotated in a first angular direction.
