Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0040187A1] Existing rubber hot-water bottles have a screw-type closure which is arranged directly on the hot-water bottle, and which forms a rather hard seal which causes discomfort to the user when lying on the bottle. Moreover, a screw-type closure is tedious to operate and must be screwed in using a certain amount of force which also corresponds to forces required for loosening. In order to avoid these disadvantages, the invention provides that the bottle neck (21) is configured in such a way that the closure is located distinctly at a distance from the body (20) of the bottle when the fill opening (22) is closed. According to another embodiment, a clamping device (23, 40, 60) is provided on the bottle neck (21) of the rubber hot-water bottle with which the bottle neck (21) can be closed. Clamping devices are easy to operate and require only a small amount of force for closing. In addition, they are easy to open and comprise a very flat design so that they do not cause discomfort to the user.
