ABSTRACT:
A container for liquid includes a body portion for accommodating liquid and a release portion for selective release of liquid contained in the body portion. The body portion and the release portion together define a container structure shaped to facilitate manual throwing and/or catching of the container and/or rolling of the container along the ground while liquid is accommodated within the container. The container structure defined by the container is suitably substantially spheroidal. The body portion is preferably substantially deformable, to facilitate expulsion of liquid contained in the body portion by external squeezing. The release portion includes a frame portion and a seal portion. The seal portion is displaceable relative to the frame portion to occlude or to expose a discharge outlet for the passage of liquid through the outlet. Relative displacement between the seal portion and the frame portion may be rotational, delimited between end positions, and accompanied by relative axial displacement of these components.
