Supplement dispensing water bottle with shudder mechanism for disbursement. Dispenses into capsules that attach at the bottom

Here is the invention described in full. Its uses, although not limited to these, in that of use in easy dispensing and mixing of workout supplements or formula for nourishment of babies. In this invention there lies a typical water bottle except inside there is a water tight seal that is easily opened by a turning of a gear that will then open the seal. This will let water through into the detachable base which hold the substance that is to be mixed with the water.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

(i) Field of the Invention

This invention pertains to water bottles, more specifically the mechanical contraption used within the water bottle to separate the water from the used supplement.

(ii) Description of the Related Art

Prior to this, invention there are normal water bottles in which one would as expected, put water in and drink. However, when one wants to mix some kind of supplement or drink mix with their water they would normally have to carry a separate container and mix when they need to. This invention, however, eliminates the need for the separate container, while retaining the convenience of wanting to mix the substance with the liquid when one desires to do so. Here we have a water tight partition (the device to keep out the water is included along with the actual partition that opens and closes) in between the removable base and the bottle. This keeps the liquid from mixing in with the substance until the lever is slid in which the partition would open and the two substances will then combine. This is convenient in cases such as, but not limited to, work out supplements such as protein powder or pre/post-work out mixes, and even for uses in baby formula.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The invention is of a water bottle with the unique design of having a water tight partition in the bottle in order to, at one's convenience, open to partition in order to mix a substance or supplement at the bottom of the bottle in which there is a removable base that screws onto the bottom. This removable base would hold the substance that the user would be mixing the water or other liquid with.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

This invention is of a water bottle modified for a particular use as described in the background information labeled Section D. To achieve this goal there is in place a water tight seal that can easily be opened. The seal has six “blades” that together form a circle when closed, of which seal off the the water by the pressure that keeps it closed off. Now in order to open this seal one only needs to turn a ring on the outside of the bottle. This ring will pull the blades by which will pull each respective blade. The blades will then open in a circular motion, as can be seen by the drawings, thereby letting water flow through into the detachable bottom to mix the desired solutions. The detachable bottom is merely attached by screwing on the bottom to the bottle.
