  • Patent number: 5590542
    Abstract: A canteen for use on picnics and other outings and which is capable of holding a first drink, such as water, lemonade, frozen daiquiris, etc., and which includes a cover through which the first drink may be consumed through a tubular straw member. A capsule is provided for holding a second drink; the capsule being removably held in a bracket formed on the underside of the cover, with the capsule extending down into the drink in the canteen. The capsule is previously placed in a freezer in order to freeze the second drink, so that the second drink may serve to cool the first drink during the outing. The capsule may subsequently be removed and the cool, melted second drink may be drunk through a neck formed in the upper end of the capsule.

  • Patent number: 5515998
    Abstract: A holder for a frozen confection, such as an ice cream stick, or the like, which serves to hold the frozen confection in an upright position. The holder includes a trough-like upper dish which is slotted to maintain the stick of the frozen confection in an upright position, and which is shaped to catch any drips from the frozen confection as it melts. The dish fits into the open end of a cylindrical base, and it is apertured so that the collected drips from the frozen confection flow into a reservoir which is formed in the upper end of the base. The drips are accumulated in the reservoir to produce a liquid. An upwardly inclined tubular member is fitted into the side of the base and extends into the reservoir to form a drinking straw. An intermediate circular handle is formed in the tubular member.

  • Patent number: 5427271
    Abstract: A canteen including a cylindrical container and a head threaded to the open top of the container, and also having a flip-up cap pivotally mounted on the head. A push-button is provided at the side of the head which, when actuated, flips up the cap to an pen position, and also pushes a spring-biased plunger away from the drinking hole to open the drinking hole. When the push-button is released, the spring-biased plunger moves to close the drinking hole. Accordingly, by operating a single push-button, the user causes the cap to flip up to an open position, and also causes the drinking hole to open, the drinking hole remaining open so long as the push-button is held by the operator in its actuated position.

The handle is hollow to provide a transparent sealed chamber which is filled with a transparent liquid, such as water. A multiplicity of glittering particles are suspended in the liquid and float about in the liquid. The handle is constructed firmly to support the spoon, fork, or the like, at its forward end in isolated relationship from the chamber. The rear end of the handle is opened to permit the introduction of the liquid and glittering particles into the chamber. A resilient stopper is inserted into the open end of the handle and it, in turn, is covered by a plastic cap which is sealed to the rear end of the handle.

  • Patent number: 4732303
    Abstract: A cover assembly for a thermos, or other bottle, which includes a dispensing spout which is movable between a closed and an open position. The dispensing spout has an opening extending through it which becomes aligned with an opening in the cover when the spout is turned to its open position. The spout also includes a vent which becomes aligned with a vent in the cover when the spout is in its open position. The opening and vent in the cover are both closed and sealed by the spout when the spout is turned down to its closed position. The spout is held in its open and closed positions by a snap-acting leaf spring element which causes the spout to be snapped to its open or closed position when the spout is turned manually in one direction or the other. The dispensing spout may be used either to pour the contents out of the bottle, or to receive a drinking straw into the interior of the bottle.
