  • Water filtration container with a centralized handle and in-handle and in-reservoir filtration features
    Patent number: 11198623
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a liquid container having a hollow handle located adjacent to the center of mass of a container filled with liquid. With the hollow handle located adjacent to the center of mass, the total bending moment exerted on a user's wrist is drastically reduced. The container may contain a reservoir tank to retain any type of liquid. Further, the handle is hollow such that liquid may flow from the upper chamber to the lower chamber through the handle. In some embodiments, the handle is structured to house a filtration system. In some embodiments, the reservoir is structured to house a filtration system. A liquid may pass through the filtration system to become treated before being stored in the lower chamber.
