A bottle accessory includes a thermoplastic or thermoset body including a circumferentially continuous collar configured and arranged to sit about a neck of a bottle, and a flared end configured and arranged to extend down one side of the bottle, the flared end including at least one feature forming a grip portion.

A device 200 is disclosed for holding a beverage container 216 having any size within a range of sizes. The holder 200 has a side wall 202 defining an opening 208 through which the beverage container is insertable and a base 204. A collar 210 is positioned within the opening 208, and the side wall 202 and the base 204 together define a cavity 214 for receiving the beverage container 216. The collar 210 is pliable and is arranged to deform to contact and grip the beverage container 216. The opening 208 has a first width and the collar 210 has an aperture 212 formed therein, the aperture 212 having a second width, the first and second widths being selected to adapt the device to the desired range of sizes.

A beverage receptacle having a) a base; b) a side wall projecting from the base, wherein the side wall defines: (i) a chamber portion where the side wall circumscribes the perimeter of the base; (ii) an elliptical rim portion where the side wall terminates in a rim opposite the base (iii) an elliptical neck portion intermediate the rim portion and the chamber portion, wherein the neck portion has a smaller cross-sectional area than the rim portion at the rim; c) at least one lip interfaces integrated into the rim portion and part of the side wall, wherein the user lip interface includes: (i) a terminus of the rim; and (ii) a slope section extending away from the longitudinal axis; and wherein the rim portion, including the user lip interface, is adapted for a user to consume the liquid beverage while the user is in a reclined position.

The present disclosure generally relates to a fluid container (100) for holding a fluid, specifically adapted for improved user handling by reducing the risk of fluid spillage in combination with easy extraction of the fluid comprised in the container (100). The fluid container (100) comprises a flap portion (110), which in its down-folded state allows for a predetermined amount of liquid to be stored in the container without the risk of leakage, and which flap-portion (110) in its up-folded state allows for easy extraction of fluid from the container (100). The present disclosure also relates to a fluid container system.

A method for producing a liquid-conducting device made of aluminum including a functional surface made of anodized aluminum. A surface of a strip- or layer-shaped aluminum sheet is provided with a masking during a masking phase for producing a processing on the surface of the aluminum sheet and in its structure. The aluminum sheet is processed in an electrolytic process for realizing a functional surface, which is provided with an aluminum oxide layer, on the processing surface, a body surface of the liquid-conducting device, which includes at least one processing surface or one functional surface, being sized as a component of the aluminum sheet during a sizing phase, the liquid-conducting device being separated from the strip- or layer-shaped aluminum sheet during a separating phase.

A device is provided that assists with equalizing air pressure within a container with the atmospheric air pressure as liquid is being poured from the container and includes one or more relatively short air tubes. The device is provided with the ability to simultaneously equalize pressure in the container while also providing a drip collection mechanism. The device may be configured for unidirectional pouring or multi-directional pouring.
