Abstract
A bottle uses a sleeve to stabilize it when in the inverted position. The sleeve in normally around the middle of the bottle when the bottle is upright. The bottle has a lock for the sleeve which is a thickened area of the bottle sidewall. When one wishes to invert the bottle, the lock is pushed inwardly and the sleeve is slid upward over the lock and its top edge is above the bottle top. The top edge is what provides a stable base to support the bottle when it is inverted. The sleeve is maintained in this extended position by the lock pressing against the sleeve due to the resiliency of the bottle.
