Insulated Container
Present embodiments relate to an insulated container. More specifically, but without limitation, the present embodiments relate to an insulated container having a removable cap or lid, that may be threadably connected to a base of the container. The removable cap or lid may have a rotatable closure.
1 . An insulated liquid container, comprising:
a body having a base and a surrounding wall extending from a periphery of said base;
a threaded neck at an upper end of said body;
a lid which is threadably connectable to said body, said lid having an upper surface, a depending radially inner wall, and a depending radially outer wall;
said depending radially inner wall having a lid thread which engages said threaded neck of said body on a radially inward surface of said threaded neck;
said depending radially depending outer wall disposed radially outwardly of said threaded neck such that said threaded neck is disposed between said depending radially depending inner wall and said depending radially outer wall.
2 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , said surrounding wall of said body having an outer body wall and an inner body wall.
3 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , said surrounding wall having a first lower diameter and a second upper diameter.
4 . The insulated liquid container of claim 3 , said first lower diameter being smaller than said second upper diameter.
5 . The insulated liquid container of claim 4 , further comprising a handle extending from said surrounding wall.
6 . The insulated liquid container of claim 5 , said handle comprising an inner portion, a middle portion, and an outer portion.
7 . The insulated liquid container of claim 6 , said inner portion and said outer portion being formed of differing materials.
8 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , said depending outer wall of said lid being transparent for visual indication of said threaded neck therein.
9 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , said inner wall of said lid disposed radially inwardly of said threaded neck.
10 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , said threaded neck being tapered from a thicker lower portion to a thinner upper portion.
11 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , said lid having an opening in the upper surface for liquid.
12 . The insulated liquid container of claim 11 , further comprising a rotatable closure to open and close access for said opening.
13 . The insulated liquid container of claim 12 , said lid having a hub in which said rotatable closure rotates.
14 . The insulated liquid container of claim 13 , said hub having one of scallops or protuberances to provide a positive feedback of specific closure position.
15 . The insulated liquid container of claim 13 , said lid having a channel with stops to limit rotation of said rotatable closure at specific positions.
16 . The insulated liquid container of claim 1 , further comprising anchors disposed on said surrounding wall of said body.
17 . The insulated liquid container of claim 16 , further comprising fasteners disposed through a handle and engaging said anchors.
