Abstract

A hand-held vessel (10) has a bottom wall (12), and sidewall (14) and a supportive strap (16) attached to the bottom wall (12) and the sidewall (14). The strap (16) has a first end (38) and a second end (40), whereby the first end (38) is fixedly attached to the sidewall (14) and the second end (40) is selectively secured to the bottom wall (12). The strap (16) is adaptable to accept a user's hand disposed between the strap (16) and the other surface of the sidewall (14). The strap (16) urges the hand against the outer surface of the sidewall (14) to secure the vessel (10) to the hand and stabilize the vessel (10) with respect to movement relative to the hand.

Claims (13)

1. A hand-held vessel comprising:
a container adapted to hold a fluid, the container having a plastic bottom wall and a plastic sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall, the bottom wall and sidewall having an inner surface that defines a cavity and having an outer surface, the cavity having a top opening which is opposite and larger than the bottom wall, and the sidewall having a first side on one side of the cavity and a second side on an opposite side of the cavity;
a thermoplastic elastomer strap connected to the outer surface at a first connection on the second side of the sidewall and below the top opening of the cavity, wherein at the first connection, the strap is integrally formed with an upper rim section of the container, and the strap connected to the outer surface at a second connection below the first connection, wherein the strap has a length, a first width at the first connection, a second width at the second connection, and a third width at an intermediate segment of the strap between the first connection and the second connection, wherein the strap is free of openings therethrough in its intermediate section, and wherein the third width of the strap is greater than the first and second widths of the strap; and a magnet affixed on the container, with the magnet disposed as a retainer along the inner surface and second side of the sidewall generally opposite the first connection and below the top opening of the cavity.
2. A hand-held vessel comprising:
a container having a bottom wall and a sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom wall, the bottom wall and sidewall having an inner surface that defines a cavity and having an outer surface, the cavity having a top opening which is opposite the bottom wall, and the sidewall having a first side on one side of the cavity and a second side on an opposite side of the cavity;
and a strap connected to the outer surface at a first connection on the second side of the sidewall, and the strap connected to the outer surface at a second connection below the first connection, wherein the strap has a length, a first width at the first connection, a second width at the second connection, and a third width at an intermediate segment of the strap between the first connection and the second connection, and wherein the third width of the strap is greater than the first and second widths of the strap.
3. The hand-held vessel of claim 1 wherein the top opening of the cavity is larger than the bottom wall.
4. The hand-held vessel of claim 1 wherein the strap is free of openings therethrough in its intermediate section.
5. The hand-held vessel of claim 1 further comprising a magnet affixed on the container.
6. The hand-held vessel of claim 4 wherein the magnet is disposed as a retainer along the inner surface and second side of the sidewall generally opposite the first connection and below the top opening of the cavity.
7. The hand-held vessel of claim 1 wherein the strap comprises a thermoplastic elastomer.
8. The hand-held vessel of claim 1 wherein at the first connection, the strap is integrally formed with an upper rim section of the container.
9. The hand-held vessel of claim 1 wherein the strap is selectively secured to the container at the second connection.
10. The hand-held vessel of claim 8 wherein the strap has at least one first engagement member, the outer surface of the bottom wall has at least one second engagement member, and wherein the first engagement member mates with the second engagement member.
11. The hand-held vessel of claim 9 wherein the first engagement member is a hole and the second engagement member is a protrusion extending from the outer surface of the bottom wall.
