Bottle

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a bottle having a neck portion and a body portion for containing liquid contents therein. The body portion includes a plurality of guides which are formed around at least a partial area or an entire area of the body portion in a spiral pattern. The guides protrude inwards from the inner surface of the body portion to have convex shapes, so that the liquid contents are guided towards an opening of the neck portion while spirally revolving inside the body portion, and the body portion is able to be compressed by compression force with respect to a longitudinal direction. A cross-section of each of the plurality of guides has an angled shape of “>” or “<”, and an outermost midpoint (c) of a horizontal medial line of the guide has a round shape, a pointed shape or a vertically angled shape. An upper bent point (a) is formed in an upper portion extending upwards from the outermost midpoint (c) of each of the guides, and a lower bent point (c) is formed in a lower portion extending downwards from the outermost midpoint (c), so that an upright strength of the body portion is maintained even when the liquid contents contained in the body portion move.

1 . A bottle having a neck portion and a body portion for containing liquid contents therein, the body portion comprising:
 a plurality of guides formed around at least a partial area or an entire area of the body portion in a spiral pattern, the guides protruding inwards from an inner surface of the body portion to have convex shapes, so that the liquid contents are guided towards an opening of the neck portion while spirally revolving inside the body portion, and the body portion is able to be compressed by compression force with respect to a longitudinal direction,   wherein a cross-section of each of the plurality of guides has an angled shape of “>” or “<”, and an outermost midpoint (c) of a horizontal medial line of the guide has a round shape, a pointed shape or a vertically angled shape.   
     
     
         2 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein an upper bent point (a) is formed in an upper portion extending upwards from the outermost midpoint (c) of each of the guides, and a lower bent point (c) is formed in a lower portion extending downwards from the outermost midpoint (c), so that an upright strength of the body portion is maintained even when the liquid contents contained in the body portion move. 
     
     
         3 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 2 , wherein a distance between the outermost midpoint (c) and the upper bent point (a) differs from a distance between the outermost midpoint (c) and the lower bent point (b) so that the upper bent point (a) and the lower bent point (b) are misaligned from each other, and
 a length (ac) of a portion connecting the outermost midpoint (c) to the upper bent point (a) is greater than a length (bc) of a portion connecting the outermost midpoint (c) to the lower bent point (b), and an interior angle of the lower bent point (b) is greater than an interior angle of the upper bent point (a), so that when the bottle is crushed by compressing, the guides are compressed in such a way that the lower bent point (b) having the larger interior angle is bent towards and folded into the upper bent point (a) having the smaller interior angle, thus minimizing restoring force of the guides after the guides are compressed.   
     
     
         4 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein a cross-section of an inner junction between the adjacent guides has a round shape, a vertically angled shape or a pointed shape. 
     
     
         5 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of guides comprises at least four or more even number of spiral lines, and the guides spiral in either of the clockwise or counterclockwise directions. 
     
     
         6 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 5 , comprising a paper bottle, a PET bottle, a metal bottle or a glass bottle. 
     
     
         7 . A bottle having a neck portion and a body portion for containing liquid contents therein, the body portion comprising:
 a plurality of guides formed around at least partial area or an entire area of the body portion in a spiral pattern, the guides protruding inwards from an inner surface of the body portion to have convex shapes, so that the liquid contents are guided towards an opening of the neck portion while spirally revolving inside the body portion,   wherein a cross-section of each of the plurality of guides has an angled shape of “>” or “<”, and an outermost midpoint (c) of a horizontal medial line of the guide has a round shape, a pointed shape or a vertically angled shape, and a lower bent point (c) is formed in a lower portion extending downwards from the outermost midpoint (c) of the guide,   the guide is configured such that an upper interior angle (x) of the upper portion with respect to the horizontal medial line of the outermost midpoint (c) is greater than a lower interior angle (y) of the lower portion below the lower bent point (b) with respect to the horizontal line, and   a horizontal length (AC) of a portion connecting the outermost midpoint (c) to the inner junction between the adjacent guides is greater than a horizontal length (AB) of a portion connecting the lower bent point (b) to the inner junction between the guides, so that when the bottle is crushed by compressing, each of the guides is compressed in such a way that the lower bent point (b) is bent upwards and folded onto the upper portion of the guide, thus minimizing restoring force of the guides after the guides are compressed, and maintaining an upright strength of the body portion even when the liquid contents contained in the body portion move.   
     
     
         8 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 7 , wherein a cross-section of an inner junction between the adjacent guides has a round shape, a vertically angled shape or a pointed shape, and
 the plurality of guides comprises at least four or more even number of spiral lines, and the guides spiral in either of the clockwise or counterclockwise directions.   
     
     
         9 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 7 , comprising a paper bottle, a PET bottle, a metal bottle or a glass bottle. 
     
     
         10 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 8 , comprising a paper bottle, a PET bottle, a metal bottle or a glass bottle. 
     
     
         11 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 2 , wherein the plurality of guides comprises at least four or more even number of spiral lines, and the guides spiral in either of the clockwise or counterclockwise directions. 
     
     
         12 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 3 , wherein the plurality of guides comprises at least four or more even number of spiral lines, and the guides spiral in either of the clockwise or counterclockwise directions. 
     
     
         13 . The bottle as set forth in  claim 4 , wherein the plurality of guides comprises at least four or more even number of spiral lines, and the guides spiral in either of the clockwise or counterclockwise directions.
