Abstract
This Invention, the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1), is composed of a slippery and thin Film Layer (3) on the inner surface where the paper cup and the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder get in contact, a Foamed Layer (2) with Air Bubbles (6) for enhancing the heat-isolating performance on the Film Layer (3), and the Printing Layer (5) for printing trademarks, company names, directions, and other information on the outer surface of the Film Layer, or on the surface between the Film Layer and the Foamed Layer. The Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1) could be easily attached to a paper cup, isolating the heat from a hot beverage to facilitate ease of drinking or transferring the said hot beverage from the cup to another container.
Description
[Descriptions]
[Name of Invention]
Heat-Isolating Cup Holder
1. Technical Field
The currently used Cup Holder, since the surface of the paper cup is too hot when a hot beverage is contained, which is made of a laminated corrugated or embossed cardboard, only has meager heat-isolating ability due to the slow cooling characteri sties of paper once exposed to heat. Its packing unit is too bulky and heavy to be carried easily. And its weak water-resistance affects its durability. It is also composed of expensive materials, in addition to the complex manufacturing process of printing, adhesion, and lamination which makes the cost higher.
Additionally, even when a handle made of cheaper paper compared to the cup material is used for carrying the cup by directly attaching the handle to the cup, it has still very high unit cost and is difficult to hold the cup if it is full.
A handle made of cheaper paper used to carry the cup by directly attaching it to the cup is still very costly. It is .also difficult to hold the cup if it is full.
2. Background Art
The Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1), which is composed of synthetic resins, had Air Bubbles (6) that formed a heat-isolating wall, and the Film Layer (3) made it easy to fit into a paper cup. This design aimed to make it easy and safe for people to drink or carry a hot beverage in a paper cup by hand with the functionality and economical efficiency that the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1) provided.
3. Disclosure of Invention
This Invention involved the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1). So far, it has been inconvenient to drink a hot beverage from a paper cup used in vending machines or takeout orders since the surface of the cup is too hot when a hot beverage is contained. This Invention also allowed a reusable Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1) by simply attaching it to the outer surface of a paper cup. It is highly reliable in isolating heat, easy to keep due to its small volume when folded, and light.
Hence, this invention, the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1), which could be easily attached to a paper cup, was devised with the objective of making it easy and safe to drink a hot beverage from a paper cup. Made of foamed synthetic resins that enhance its heat-isolating performance, it was also proven to be economical.
This Invention with the above objective has the characteristics that it was composed of a slippery and thin Film Layer (3) on the inner surface for ease in handling, a Foamed Layer (2) with Air Bubbles (6) to enhance the heat-isolating
performance of the Film Layer (3), and the Printing Layer (5) to indicate trademarks, company names, directions, and other information on the outer surface of the Film Layer (3), or on the surface between the Film Layer (2) and Foamed Layer (3).
An example of the operation of this invention is described in the following statements, based on the attached drawings and pictures:
Fig. 1, the whole isometric view showing the construction of this design, indicates that the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1) has a Coated and Foamed Fabric (4) from the process of coating the thin Film Layer (3) on a synthetic resin Foamed Layer with Air Bubbles (6). The Foamed and Coated Fabric (4) can be cut into an appropriate shape and size, and be formed by attaching the two sections by heating them into a circular cone, a cylinder, or a tube-shape object, and cutting out the closed part. Also, the Printing Layer (5) can be formed arbitrarily as desired.
Fig. 2 and 3, the magnified principal parts of the design, show that the Foamed and Coated Fabric (4), the raw material of this design, is composed of the Foamed Layer (2) filled with Air Bubbles, the Film Layer (3), and the Printing Layer (5).

5. Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention
Fig. 1, the whole isometric view showing the construction of this design, indicates that the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1) has a Coated and Foamed Fabric (4) from the process of coating the thin Film Layer (3) on a synthetic resin Foamed Layer with Air Bubbles (6). The Foamed and Coated Fabric (4) can be cut into an appropriate shape and size, and be formed by attaching the two sections by heating them into a circular cone, a cylinder, or a tube-shape object, and cutting out the closed part. Also, the Printing Layer (5) can be formed arbitrarily as desired.
6. Industrial Applicability
This Invention involved the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1). It has been inconvenient to drink a hot beverage from a paper cup used in vending machines or takeout orders since the surface of the cup is too hot when a hot beverage is contained.
The detailed construction, operation, and effect of this invention, as constructed as above, are as follows:
The Foamed and Coated Fabric (4) was made of densely attached foamed synthetic resins with a thin Film Layer (3) filled with Air Bubbles (6). The Film Layer (3) was cut into an appropriate shape and size so that the thin Film Layer (3) could be inserted in the inner face easily. The Printing Layer (5) indicated trademarks, company names, directions, and other information on the side of the Film Layer (3).
The Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1) was used in such a way that the paper cup was easily inserted in the Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1), with the inner face of the Cup Holder touching the outer face of the paper cup. It lessened the difficulty of inserting the cup into the Cup Holder due to the friction force generated between the outer surface of the former, and the Foamed Layer (2) of the latter when they directly got in contact.
The Heat-Isolating Cup Holder (1), as shown above, helped people easily carry or hold a paper cup containing a hot beverage as the Air Bubbles (6) in the Foamed Layer (2) formed a heat-isolating wall when a paper cup was inserted into the Cup Holder. An accidental burn could be prevented.
Claims
[Claim 1]
The Heat Isolating Cup Holder(l) composed of a Foamed and coated synthetic resins fabric forming a lot of Air Bubbles(6) shaped into cones, cylinders or tube shapes for easy insertion of a paper cup and the thin Film Layer(3) for reducing the friction between the contact points of the paper cup and the Foamed Layer(2) having a lot of Air Bubbles(6) for isolating heat including the structures shaped by injection or press processing in addition to structures shaped into a tube by cutting out the plate shaped Foamed synthetic resins fabric and attaching the both ends by heating them.
