Patent attributes
A container having an internal storage area for holding a quantity of fluid. The top of the bottle is provided with a manual trigger-type pump and includes a downwardly depending tube for conducting or syphoning the fluid from the storage area. The internal storage compartment further includes a reserve reservoir for holding a secondary portion of fluid into which the open end of the tube is disposed after the storage area has been substantially emptied through normal operation of the pump. A small remaining portion of the stored fluid is distributed into the reservoir and the open end of the tube is placed therein so that the last portion of fluid can be dispensed in the normal way by the pump. The secondary or reserve reservoir is defined by a curved inner wall, having opposite ends integrally formed with the sidewall of the bottle. The sidewall is open at its top and tapers gently towards the bottom of the bottle. The edge marginal region of the wall, defining the opening leading into the interior of the secondary or reserve reservoir, constitutes a lip over which the last remaining portion of the fluid will flow when the bottle is tipped forward.
