Pouring spout sleeve

Abstract

According to some embodiments, a pouring spout sleeve is disclosed. The pouring spout sleeve comprises an upper ring defining an opening that is disposed at a center top portion of the pouring spout sleeve. The upper ring is for securing the pouring spout sleeve to a pouring spout that is inserted into a bottle. A plurality of inner rings circumscribes an inner portion of the pouring spout sleeve to secure the pouring spout sleeve to an exterior surface of the bottle.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A pouring spout sleeve to be removably coupled to a bottle, the pouring spout sleeve comprising;
 an upper ring defining an opening that is disposed at a center top portion of the pouring spout sleeve for securing the pouring spout sleeve to a pouring spout that is inserted into a bottle; and   a plurality of inner rings that circumscribe an inner portion of the pouring spout sleeve to secure the pouring spout sleeve to an exterior surface of the bottle.   
     
     
         2 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , wherein the upper ring extends above a top surface of the pouring spout sleeve. 
     
     
         3 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , wherein the pouring spout sleeve is comprised of a flexible material. 
     
     
         4 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , wherein portions of the plurality of inner rings extend a non-uniform distance from an inner wall of the pouring spout sleeve. 
     
     
         5 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , further comprising one or more light emitting diodes that are disposed flush with a top surface of the pouring spout sleeve. 
     
     
         6 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , further comprising one or more light emitting diodes that are protruding from a top surface of the pouring spout sleeve. 
     
     
         7 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , further comprising an embedded electronic circuit to control one or more light emitting diodes. 
     
     
         8 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 1 , wherein a color of the pouring spout sleeve is based on a type of liquor that will be held in a bottle. 
     
     
         9 . A pouring spout sleeve to be removably coupled to a bottle, the pouring spout sleeve comprising;
 an upper ring extending above a top surface of the pouring spout sleeve and defining an opening that is disposed at a center top portion of the pouring spout sleeve for securing the pouring spout sleeve to a pouring spout that is inserted into a bottle; and   a plurality of inner rings that circumscribe an inner portion of the pouring spout sleeve to secure the pouring spout sleeve to an exterior surface of the bottle.   
     
     
         10 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 9 , wherein the pouring spout sleeve is comprised of a flexible material. 
     
     
         11 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 9 , wherein portions of the plurality of inner rings extend a non-uniform distance from an inner wall of the sleeve. 
     
     
         12 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 9 , further comprising one or more light emitting diodes protruding from a top surface of the pouring spout sleeve. 
     
     
         13 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 12 , further comprising an embedded electronic circuit to control the one or more light emitting diodes. 
     
     
         14 . A pouring spout sleeve to be removably coupled to a bottle, the pouring spout sleeve comprising;
 a smooth flexible cap shaped structure;   a first opening on a top surface of the cap shaped structure to receive a metallic or plastic spout;   a second opening on a bottom of the cap shaped structure to receive a bottle, wherein the first opening is smaller than the second opening;   a raised ring disposed on a top surface of the cap shaped structure that circumscribes the first opening; and   an interior surface of the cap shaped structure may comprise comprising a plurality of inner rings that circumscribe an inner portion of the cap shaped structure to secure the cap shaped structure to an exterior surface of the bottle.   
     
     
         15 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 14 , further comprising one or more light emitting diodes flush with a top surface of the cap shaped structure. 
     
     
         16 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 14 , further comprising one or more light emitting diodes protruding from a top surface of the cap shaped structure. 
     
     
         17 . The pouring spout sleeve of  claim 14 , further comprising an embedded electronic circuit to control one or more light emitting diodes.
