Method and Apparatus for a Removable Handle for a Bottle

Abstract

The device contains a ring structure having at least one interior groove and an exterior threaded portion. The interior grooves of the ring structure are designed to removably engage to an opening on a bottle. A cap is also provided having at least one helical rib to securely attach to the threaded portion of the ring structure when the cap is in a closed position. A handle is further provided that is integral with the rigid skirt.

1 . A device for holding a bottle with an opening formed at the bottle neck, the device comprising:
 a ring structure;   at least one interior groove on the ring structure adapted to removably attach to the opening formed at the bottle neck.   
   
   
       2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the ring structure further comprises a pouring channel. 
   
   
       3 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a cap engagable with the ring structure. 
   
   
       4 . The device of  claim 3 , wherein the cap further comprises at least one helical rib. 
   
   
       5 . The device of  claim 4 , wherein an exterior threaded portion of the ring structure is engagable with at least one interior partition on the cap. 
   
   
       6 . The device of  claim 3 , wherein the cap further comprises at least one gripping portion. 
   
   
       7 . The device of  claim 1 , further comprising a rigid skirt integral with the ring structure, wherein the handle is integral with the ring structure via the rigid skirt. 
   
   
       8 . A method of providing a means for holding a bottle with an opening formed at the bottle neck, the method comprising the steps of:
 removing a cover from the opening of the bottle; and   fixing a ring structure having a pouring channel to the opening of the bottle, wherein the ring structure is integral with a handle.   
   
   
       9 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising the step of turning the ring structure onto the opening of the bottle to an engaged position. 
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 8  further comprising the step of covering the pouring channel with a cap. 
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 10  further comprising the step of providing a helical rib on the cap. 
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising the step of providing exterior threaded portions on the ring structure. 
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 8 , further comprising the step of engaging a helical rib on a cap with an exterior threaded portion on the ring structure. 
   
   
       14 . A system for providing a gripping accessory on a bottle with an opening formed at the bottle neck, the system comprising:
 means for removeably coupling a handle to the opening of the bottle;   means for pouring a liquid from the bottle utilizing the handle.   
   
   
       15 . The system in accordance with  claim 14  further comprising a means for engaging a pouring channel when the handle is coupled to the opening. 
   
   
       16 . The system in accordance with  claim 14  further comprising a means for preventing spilling the liquid onto the bottle when the liquid is being poured.
