Wine decanter to retain and preserve unconsumed wine

摘要

A wine decanter including a vessel having a bottom wall and a circumferential sidewall with a top rim including a pouring lip, a bottom wall and a circumferential sidewall surrounding an inner chamber, a sealing top fitting within the top rim of the vessel, the sealing top having at least one circumferential sealing ring, the inner chamber having a diameter which is approximately the same diameter of a standard 750 ml bottle of wine, the inner chamber having a bottom portion which retains an amount of wine. A floating sealing disc with a diameter slightly smaller than the diameter of the inner chamber of the sel floats on top of the wine in the inner chamber, thereby preventing oxygen from coming into contact with a top portion of the wine.

主权项

1. A wine decanter comprising:
a. a vessel having a bottom wall and a circumferential double walled glass sidewall including an outer sidewall and a spaced apart inner sidewall, the inner sidewall encircling an inner chamber with a top rim including a pouring lip, a sealing top including a top cap resting on the top rim, the sealing top further including a dome shaped barrier having a pair of spaced apart circumferential sealing rings affixed to the dome shaped barrier and resting against the inner sidewall of the double walled glass sidewall, the dome shaped barrier and the pair of spaced apart sealing rings retained within the inner chamber; b. the inner chamber surrounded by the inner sidewall with a first diameter, the inner chamber having a bottom portion above the bottom wall, the bottom portion used in conjunction with and enabling the retention of an amount of wine; and c. a movable floatable sealing disc used in conjunction with wine retained within the vessel, the movable flotatable sealing disc floating on top of wine within the vessel, the movable flotatable sealing disc having a double wall made of glass with a spaced apart air gap between the double wall, a circumferential sealing ring retained between the double wall made of glass of the movable flotatable sealing disc, the double wall of the movable flotatable sealing disc having a second diameter which is smaller than the first diameter of the inner sidewall, and the circumferential sealing ring having a third diameter which is larger than the second diameter and smaller than the first diameter, the movable flotatable sealing disc having a flat lower surface and a top surface retaining a handle, the circumferential sealing ring enabling the movable flotatable sealing disc to form an oxygen barrier to wine below the movable flotatable sealing disc, the third diameter of the circumferential sealing ring and the second diameter of the movable flotatable sealing disc enabling the movable flotatable sealing disc to move at an angle relative to the bottom wall as the movable flotatable sealing disc floats above the portion of the wine to enable the wine to be poured out of the pouring lip when the wine decanter is tilted and the movable flotatable sealing disc is moved to an angle relative to the bottom wall with no object forming an obstruction between the top of the movable flotatable sealing disc and the pouring lip; d. whereby, the dome shaped barrier and the pair of spaced apart sealing rings prevent outside air and flies from entering into the interior of the vessel.
