ABSTRACT:
A non-handled, flexible and lightweight plastic bottle for dispensing a liquid product, such as edible oils, by tilting the bottle along its vertical axis and pouring. The bottle has a flexible body with a rigid grip design. The grip design has a generally C-shaped cross-section when taken parallel to the bottle's vertical axis and an oblong cross-section when taken perpendicular to the bottle's vertical axis. The oblong cross-section of the grip area has a major axis parallel to its longest dimension and a minor axis parallel to its shortest dimension. The grip area has two parallel opposing beams parallel to the major axis which are inwardly indented. The two beams are joined in a closed circuit by two opposing arches, which are also inwardly indented but to a lesser extent. Each arch has a three-dimensional reinforcing means along its periphery from a point adjacent one beam to a point adjacent the opposing beam. The rigid grip design allows the user to grab the bottle with one hand while reducing the movement of the beams along the major and minor axis.
