ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to liquid containers. More particularly, the invention relates to a container that uses a dispenser mounted on the liquid container to dispense the liquid. More particularly the invention relates to liquid containers with top mounted dispensers where the container holds a removable bag which holds the liquid.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Liquid containers with a built in dispenser often have a dispenser mechanism mounted at the top of the container. Top dispensers use a draw tube that extends to the bottom of the liquid container. Many such containers have a flat interior bottom. Once the level of the liquid goes below the bottom of the draw tube the dispenser is unable to dispense the remaining liquid, which is often disposed with the container. Accordingly, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide a container and dispenser that dispenses a larger percentage of liquid.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, the foregoing object is accomplished by providing a container such as a bottle with a reservoir at the bottom of the container and an extended draw tube that extends into the reservoir.
Other features of the present invention are disclosed or apparent in the section entitled: “DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION.”
