CONTAINER FOR MIXING LIQUIDS
A container for mixing includes a container body having a first end with an opening and a second end opposite the first end. The second end has a closed rounded shape. The container body further includes a container wall between the opening and the second end. The container wall has an interior surface with a single substantially continuous rounded wall face with a plurality of smooth indentations therein arranged in a helical configuration around the wall face between the opening and the second opposite end.
1 . A container for mixing, comprising:
a container body having a first end comprising an opening and a second end opposite the first end, the second end having a closed rounded shape, the container body further comprising a container wall between the opening and the second end, the container wall having an interior surface comprising a single substantially continuous rounded wall face with a plurality of smooth indentations therein arranged in a helical configuration around the wall face between the opening and the second opposite end.
2 . The container of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of smooth indentations are equally spaced about the rounded wall face.
3 . The container of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of smooth indentations comprises six indentations.
4 . The container of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of smooth indentations subtends an angle of approximately 120 degrees between the first end and the second end.
5 . The container of claim 1 , wherein the second end is semispherical.
6 . The container of claim 1 , wherein the container has a larger diameter at the first end than at the second end.
7 . The container of claim 1 , wherein the container has a same diameter at the first end and the second end.
8 . The container of claim 1 , wherein the container wall is a single wall and wherein the container wall has an exterior surface with a plurality of protrusions matching the plurality of smooth indentations on the interior surface.
9 . The container of claim 1 , wherein the container wall comprises a double wall configuration having an exterior surface separated from the interior surface.
10 . The container of claim 9 , wherein the exterior surface comprises a plurality of smooth protrusions matching the plurality of smooth indentations on the interior surface.
11 . The container of claim 9 , wherein the exterior surface comprises a plurality of smooth protrusions different from the plurality of smooth indentations on the interior surface.
12 . The container of claim 9 , wherein the exterior surface comprises a smooth exterior surface.
13 . The container of claim 9 , wherein the exterior surface includes a flat bottom.
14 . The container of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of smooth indentations comprises a depression with rounded edges providing a substantially continuous smooth surface without sharp edges.
15 . An insert for a drinking vessel, comprising:
a mixing body comprising a wall, a first end at a first end of the wall comprising an opening, and a second end at an opposite second end of the wall, the second end comprising a closed rounded shape;
wherein the container wall comprises an interior surface comprising a rounded wall face with a plurality of smooth indentations therein arranged in a helical configuration around the wall face between the opening and the second opposite end.
16 . The insert of claim 15 , wherein each of the plurality of smooth indentations subtends an angle of approximately 120 degrees between the first end and the second end.
17 . The insert of claim 15 , wherein the container has a larger diameter at the first end than at the second end.
18 . The insert of claim 15 , wherein the container has a same diameter at the first end and the second end.
19 . The insert of claim 15 , wherein the container wall is a single wall and wherein the container wall has an exterior surface with a plurality of protrusions matching the plurality of smooth indentations on the interior surface.
20 . The container of claim 15 , wherein each of the plurality of smooth indentations comprises a depression with rounded edges providing a substantially continuous smooth surface without sharp edges.
