  • Patent number: 10676255
    Abstract: Drink bottles, or drink containers with cap assemblies that include a drink spout. In some embodiments, the drink spout is pivotally coupled to a base of the cap assembly. In some embodiments, the drink spouts include mouthpieces, including self-sealing and/or bite-actuated mouthpieces. In some embodiments, the cap assembly includes a handle, which may include at least one guard for the drink spout and/or mouthpiece. In some embodiments, the drink containers include a manual on/off valve. In some embodiments, the dispensing spout includes a mount for the mouthpiece and/or cooperates with the cap to provide a manual on/off valve to selectively restrict flow of drink fluid from the drink container regardless of the drink spout's and/or mouthpiece's configuration. In some embodiments, the drink containers include a drink tube extending from external of the drink containers and/or an air return system.

  • Patent number: 10569940
    Abstract: Cap assemblies with magnetic closure retention mechanisms and drink containers including the same. A cap assembly includes a base, a drink spout defining a passage, a closure configured to be selectively transitioned between a closed configuration and a stowed configuration via an open configuration, and a magnetic closure retention mechanism to magnetically retain the closure in the stowed configuration. When the closure is in the closed configuration, the closure is operatively coupled to the drink spout and obstructs the flow of liquid therethrough. When the closure is in the open configuration or the stowed configuration, the drink spout is uncovered and unobstructed by the closure. When the closure is in the stowed configuration, the closure is magnetically retained against the base or a handle of the cap assembly.

  • Patent number: 10542833
    Abstract: Drink containers with mouthpiece assemblies having a dispensing configuration and a stowed configuration. A mouthpiece assembly defines a liquid passage through which drink liquid may be dispensed when the mouthpiece assembly is in the dispensing configuration and includes means for selectively restricting the flow of drink liquid through the liquid passage when the mouthpiece assembly is in the stowed configuration. In some examples, the means for selectively restricting the flow of drink liquid include a tube that at least partially defines the liquid passage and which includes a crimping region. The crimping region may be constructed of a resiliently and reversibly deformable material that is adapted to restrict the flow of drink liquid through the liquid passage when the mouthpiece assembly is in the stowed configuration. In some embodiments, the mouthpiece assembly includes a means for automatically releasing the mouthpiece assembly from its stowed configuration to a dispensing configuration.

  • Patent number: 10532862
    Abstract: Closure assemblies with distinct dispensing modes and drink containers including the same. A closure assembly includes a closure base and a valve assembly. The valve assembly includes at least one drink outlet, at least one shower outlet, and a barrel valve. The valve assembly is configured to be selectively transitioned between a closed configuration, a drink configuration, and a shower configuration. The barrel valve is configured to be selectively rotated relative to the closure base about a rotational axis of the closure assembly to transition the valve assembly between the closed configuration, the drink configuration, and the shower configuration.

  • Patent number: 10358270
    Abstract: Closure assemblies and drink containers including the same. A drink container includes a liquid vessel and a closure assembly. A closure assembly includes a closure base, a valve insert, and a valve insert retainer. The closure base defines a base interior side, a base exterior side, and a closure base passage. The valve insert is operatively received within the closure base passage and includes a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet. The valve insert is configured to transition the closure assembly between a closed configuration and a drink configuration. The valve insert retainer is configured to prevent removal of the valve insert from the closure base when operatively coupled to the valve insert. The valve insert is configured to be selectively and repeatedly received by and removed from the closure base passage only when the valve insert retainer is selectively removed from the valve insert.
