ABSTRACT:
A biaxially oriented plastic blow molded bottle (10) has a domed upper dispensing end (12), a lower freestanding base (14) about whose central hub (24) legs (26) and ribs (28) alternate, and a round body portion (16) with an inwardly extending annular grip (32) constructed to facilitate manual grasping of the bottle. The body portion (16)has the same diameter D above and below the annular grip (32). The annular grip (32) includes upper and lower ends (34,36) that extend outwardly with curved shapes with the upper end having a more abrupt curvature than the lower end. An intermediate portion (38) of the annular grip extends between the upper and lower ends with an inwardly curved shape that is less abrupt than the upper end (34) but more abrupt than the lower end (38). In one embodiment, the bottle (10.sub.tag) has its annular grip (32.sub.tag) provided with a textured outer surface (33) that facilitates gripping of the bottle.
