Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a dispensing container having an inner cavity for storing content, such as bath products and shampoo, to be dispensed and an opening for dispensing content. The container is supported by a base having a face including a rim ridge about the periphery thereof to define an elevated support ridge and a recessed end surface. A drain slot extends through the rim ridge for allowing fluid trapped under the rim ridge to escape. The base of the container is formed of a base cap which is coupled to a bottle to form the container. The bottle includes a main container segment, a neck having a diameter sized smaller than the main container segment and a shoulder connecting the main container segment and neck. A wall extends from the face of the base cap to define an interior cavity for the base cap. The base cap is sized so that the neck and shoulder of the bottle fits into the interior cavity of the base cap and an exposed end of the wall of the base cap abuts the bottle and a base cavity is defined between the base cap and the bottle. A drainage hole is included through the face of the base cap to allow fluid to escape from the base cavity between the base cap and the bottle.
