Abstract: A collapsible food container, comprising a collapsible container and a lid assembly, the collapsible container including an upper portion, a lower portion, and a seating wall, the seating wall coupled to a first end of the upper portion and the lower portion coupled to a second end of the upper portion opposite the first end, the upper portion being collapsible as to transition the collapsible container between an expanded state and a collapsed state, the lid assembly including a rigid collar and a rigid lid, the rigid collar removably coupled to the seating wall of the collapsible container and the rigid lid removably coupling to the rigid collar.

Abstract: A collapsible travel bottle comprising a flexible main body comprising an inner space for receiving a liquid therein, the main body including an upper portion, a middle portion, and a lower portion, an opening in the upper portion in communication with the inner space to allow receiving and discharging of the liquid within the flexible main body, a rigid collar coupled to the upper portion proximate the opening, a rigid cap coupled to the rigid collar to restrict receiving and discharging of the liquid within the flexible main body through the opening, the middle portion configured to enable both the top portion and the middle portion to collapse fully into the bottom portion.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure could generally provide a relatively easily squeezable beverage bottle that allows control of the flow rate of the liquid being dispensed to the user. The bottle could provide sufficient radial rigidity—or resistance to squeezing—to return to its original shape (or “bounce back”) at a suitable rate without experiencing permanent deformation or denting and to withstand the rigors of filling, shipping, transporting, dispensing, etc. The present disclosure generally provides a beverage bottle filtering system that provides adequate filtering of water taken from the bottle at a suitable rate. In one embodiment, the present disclosure could include a support system to adequately secure the filter media within a filter housing while ensuring a sufficient compression fit and seal of filter media within filter system to eliminate “bypass flow” (i.e., water that might leak past filter system) and prevent consumption of unfiltered water.
