  • Patent number: 10334941
    Abstract: A bottle brush includes a handle and a brush head connected to the handle. The brush head has a longitudinal axis and further includes a barrel having a sidewall substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis. A first row of bristles extends from the sidewall at least in part transversely from the barrel to define a first bristle reach. At least two second rows of bristles extend from the sidewall at least in part transversely from the barrel to define a second bristle reach different from the first bristle reach. The at least two second rows of bristles may be spaced longitudinally from each other with the first row of bristles being longitudinally intermediate to the second rows of bristles.

  • Patent number: 10028890
    Abstract: A bottle assembly includes a container having a liquid chamber defined therein, and a vent assembly positionable substantially entirely within the liquid chamber of the container. A collar assembly generally defines a closure for the container and is releasably engageable with a neck of the container. The collar assembly and the container are configured relative to each other to enable selective configuration between a first configuration in which the vent assembly is disposed substantially entirely within the liquid chamber of the container and a second configuration in which the vent assembly is omitted from the container.
