ABSTRACT:
A sports bottle includes a generally cylindrical hollow vessel having a liquid chamber formed therein and a closed end bottom. The generally cylindrical vessel further defines a reduced diameter neck portion and an upper chamber terminating in an upwardly facing mouth. The upper chamber supports a porous antisplash element preferably formed of a coarse porous foam material plastic or the like. An elongated tubular straw extends from the bottom surface within the vessel upwardly through the neck portion and through the antisplash element and beyond the mouth to form an upwardly extending end which receives a flexible mouth tube which is preferably curved toward the user when the sports bottle is secured to a conventional bicycle. In alternate embodiments, the antisplash element within the upper chamber of the vessel is formed of a plurality of tubular members defining passages therethrough and grouped together to form a generally cylindrical multipassage combination. In still further alternate embodiments, a flexible planar member having a plurality of flexible generally triangular segments is secured to the mouth portion of the vessel to provide an antisplash element. In a still further alternate embodiment, a generally planar valve member is pivotally supported within the mouth portion of the vessel and is pivoted to an open position as liquid is poured into the vessel mouth.
