  • Patent number: 5957347
    Abstract: An improved wrist band for potable liquids is provided, the wrist band comprising an annular elastic container for maintaining a potable fluid such as a sports drink, ingestible medicine or the like to be worn on the wrist, for instance during jogging. In a presently preferred embodiment, the unique flexible annular container may further comprise an integral nipple element for the contained liquid to be dispensed from the container. Accordingly, in this embodied form the nipple closure is disposed at a mid-section on the outer wall of the annular container at a location to permit easy access to the mouth of the wearer. The material for fabricating the unique wrist band may be selected from non-toxic water proof materials, having sufficient elongation to break characteristics so that the inventive container may be easily slipped on the wrist over the hand of the user but when once positioned cannot be easily displaced except by purposeful exertion.
