ABSTRACT:
A plastic blow molded container (10) having an upper dispensing end (16), a lower base (18) and a body portion (20) extending therebetween is constructed with the body portion having a round upper drum section (36) and an inwardly extending lower annular grip section (38) having depressions (42) spaced about a central axis A of the container. Each depression (42) has a lower blunt end (44), an upper generally pointed end (46) and an intermediate portion (48) having sides (50) that taper toward each other in an upward direction. The lower location of the annular grip section (38) facilitates manual grasping of the bottle when initially grasped from a horizonal support surface while the tapering configuration of the depressions (42) facilitates manual fingertip gripping of the container by varying hand sizes. One embodiment has a lower base (18) with an annular support surface (62). Another embodiment has a lower base (18') including a central hub (66) connected to downwardly extending hollow legs (68) and curved ribs (70) that alternate with each other.
