Abstract

An illuminable container device, comprising a housing for containing a liquid; a recess configured within a base area of said housing, with said recess extending upwardly into said housing and in a substantially cylindrical shape; a light device, comprising a light housing with a substantially cylindrical shape, said light housing comprising a plurality of ridges, which are positioned vertically around a circumference of said light housing; said light device configured to fit into and substantially fill said recess being held therein by a pressurized fit.

Claims

1. An illuminable container device, comprising:

a housing for containing a liquid;

a recess configured within a base area of said housing, with said recess extending upwardly into said housing and in a substantial dome shape;

wherein said recess comprises a plurality of sub-recesses situated around a circumference area of said recess and that are concave in shape and extend laterally into said housing;

a light device, comprising a light housing that is substantially cylindrical in shape with a miniature dome situated at a center of a top area of said light device;

said light housing comprising a plurality of ribs situated around a circumference of said light housing; and

said plurality of ribs are convex in shape and configured to fit within said plurality of sub-recesses of said recess.

2. The device of claim 1, wherein said plurality of ribs further comprises a set of three ribs.

3. The device of claim 1, wherein said plurality of sub-recesses further comprise a set of three sub-recesses.

4. The device of claim 1, wherein said housing is comprised of a recyclable plastic material.

5. The device of claim 1, wherein said light device is configured for multi-setting lighting configurations.

6. An illuminable container device, comprising:

a housing for containing a liquid;

a recess configured within a base area of said housing, with said recess extending upwardly into said housing and in a substantially cylindrical shape;

a light device, comprising a light housing with a substantially cylindrical shape, said light housing comprising a plurality of ridges, which are positioned vertically around a circumference of said light housing;

said light device configured to fit into and substantially fill said recess being held therein by a pressurized fit.

7. The device of claim 6, wherein said housing is comprised of a recyclable plastic material.

8. The device of claim 7, wherein said recess is reinforced with a thicker layer of said recyclable plastic material.

9. The device of claim 8, wherein said recess is rigid in nature.

10. The device of claim 6, wherein said recess is substantially the same in shape as said light device.

11. The device of claim 6, wherein said plurality of ridges are slightly curved in shape.

12. The device of claim 11, wherein said plurality of ridges are configured to stabilize said light device within said recess.

13. The device of claim 6, wherein said light device is configured for multi-setting lighting configurations.

14. A wearable illuminable container device, comprising:

a housing for containing a liquid;

a recess configured within a base area of said housing, with said recess extending upwardly into said housing and in a substantially cylindrical shape;

a light device, comprising a light housing with a substantially cylindrical shape, said light housing comprising a plurality of ridges, which are positioned vertically around a circumference of said light housing, said plurality of ridges being curved in nature; and

a lanyard configured to couple around said device by an adjustable multi-prong securing element.

15. The device of claim 14, wherein said lanyard further comprises a safety element.

16. The device of claim 15, wherein said safety element further comprises a plurality of complementary snaps configured to uncouple when subjected to a substantial amount of force.
