ABSTRACT:
A non-spill container for preventing the spilling of liquid therefrom when the container is tipped or turned upside down is disclosed. The non-spill container includes a bottom member and a top member that is releasably mounted on the bottom member, the bottom member including an annular wall portion and an annular flange portion. The top member that is joined to the bottom member also includes an upper annular wall portion to which an upper annular flange section is joined at the lowermost end thereof, the flanges of the top and bottom members being interconnected to releasably interlock the top and bottom members together. An opening is formed in the top wall of the top member, and a tube is joined to the underside of the top wall and communicates with the opening, the tube depending coaxially from the top wall interiorly of the upper annular wall section to a location that is adjacent to the upper annular flange, the volume of the lower annular wall portion of the bottom member being somewhat less than the volume of the upper annular wall section through which the tube extends so that liquid contained in the lower annular wall portion of the bottom member is prevented from entering the tube for discharge therethrough when the container is tipped during the use thereof.
