Abstract

The present invention provides a container for drinking fluids wherein the container has an integrated interior compartment for storing solid elements used for treating drinking fluids. The interior compartment includes a plurality of perforations that allow the fluid found in the container to flow through the interior compartment to allow such fluid to interact with the contents of the interior chamber. The interior chamber may include a compound for treating the fluid and for forming, for example, alkaline water. The treatment compound is compressed into solid beads that will interact with the drinking fluid but will not substantially dissolve. In one embodiment the treatment compound comprises of Tourmaline, Kaoline, Magnesium, Magnesium Oxide, Silicone Dioxide and Calcium Oxide.

Claims (29)

1. A container for drinking fluids comprising:

a. an elongated, hollow vessel comprising a side wall and a base wall with an opening formed at a top end;

b. a base well having a first diameter, an open top, and a well side wall, said base well attached to said base wall within the hollow vessel, said well side wall having at least one annular rim formed therein; and

c. a chamber top having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter and an open bottom and a chamber side wall, said chamber side wall having at least one deformable tab formed therein for engaging the at least one annular rim of the base well to fixedly secure the chamber top to said base well to form an inner chamber within said hollow vessel.

2. The container of claim 1 wherein said base well and said chamber top include perforations for permitting fluid flow between the hollow vessel and the inner chamber.

3. The container of claim 2 wherein said inner chamber stores a fluid treatment compound.

4. The container of claim 3 wherein the fluid treatment compound is formed into solid beads.

5. The container of claim 2 wherein said fluid treatment compound is a mineral agent.

6. The container of claim 5 wherein the mineral agent comprises Tourmaline, Kaoline, Magnesium, Magnesium Oxide, Silicone Dioxide and Calcium Oxide.

7. The container of claim 1 further comprising a cap for selectively opening and closing the container.

8. A container for drinking fluids comprising:

a. an elongated, hollow vessel comprising a side wall and a base wall with an opening formed at a top end;

b. a base well having a first diameter, an open top, and a well side wall, said base well attached to said base wall within the hollow vessel, said well side wall having at least one rim formed therein; and

c. a chamber body having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter and a chamber side wall, said chamber side wall having at least one deformable tab formed therein for engaging the at least one rim of the base well to secure the chamber body to said base well.

9. The container of claim 8 wherein said base well and said chamber body include perforations for permitting fluid flow between the hollow vessel chamber and the chamber body.

10. The container of claim 9 wherein said chamber body stores a fluid treatment compound.

11. The container of claim 10 wherein the fluid treatment compound is formed into solid beads.

12. The container of claim 9 wherein said fluid treatment compound is a mineral agent.

13. The container of claim 12 wherein the mineral agent comprises Tourmaline, Kaoline, Magnesium, Magnesium Oxide, Silicone Dioxide and Calcium Oxide.

14. The container of claim 8 further comprising a cap for selectively opening and closing the container.

15. A container for drinking fluids comprising:

a. an elongated, hollow vessel comprising a side wall and a base wall with an opening formed at a top end;

b. a base well having a first diameter, an open top, and a well side wall, said base well attached to said base wall within the hollow vessel; and

c. a chamber body having a second diameter smaller than the first diameter and a chamber side wall, said chamber side wall having at least one deformable tab formed therein for engaging the well side wall to secure the chamber body to said base well.

16. The container of claim 15 , wherein the well side wall is of a non-uniform diameter to facilitate engagement with the at least one deformable tab of the chamber side wall.

17. The container of claim 16 , wherein the well side wall includes a rim.

18. The container of claim 15 wherein said base well and said chamber body include perforations for permitting fluid flow between the hollow vessel and the chamber body.

19. The container of claim 18 wherein said chamber body stores a fluid treatment compound.

20. The container of claim 19 wherein the fluid treatment compound is formed into solid beads.
