Abstract
An apparatus for securely retaining a container in place during transport yet offering ease of insertion and removal. The apparatus further facilitates blind, one-hand access to a portable fluid supply without significantly impairing the user's activity. A container portion holds and transports fluid, and is sized according to the needs of the user. The container portion is received by a retaining portion which secures the container portion to a surface such as a hip holster or a bike frame. The retaining portion and container portion securely engage with one another by way of a reciprocal connecting assembly. The reciprocal connecting assembly includes a protuberance and socket assembly which allows the container portion secure retention upon merely dropping it into the retaining portion, or, with a simple, one-handed twisting motion the container portion is virtually locked into place in the retaining portion.
