| 20100059534 | Adjustable Volume Toddler Cup - Adjustable volume cups and methods for use are disclosed. One or more embodiments of the invention are directed to adjustable volume cups having a housing with at least one recess and a bottom slidably movable within the housing having at least one projection for cooperative interaction with the at least one recess. | 03-11-2010 |
| 20100282767 | Detachable Foldable Handle for Drinking Vessels - A reusable, foldable, detachable handle is disclosed that can grip a drinking vessel by pressing against both the upper and lower rims of the vessel, thereby providing stable and reliable attachment thereto. The detachable handle can be folded when not in use for easy carrying and storage, and when in use it can be fixed in an unfolded configuration by a sleeve or flap that spans a foldable portion. Preferred embodiments allow attachment to vessels of different heights by being adjustable in length and/or by including a plurality of base-gripping features at different locations along the handle. Some preferred embodiments include gripping spike that enhances gripping security by applying opposing pressure to the upper rim. The gripping spike can be fixed in location or slidable along the handle. Further preferred embodiments include a bottle opener, and some preferred embodiments are attachable to a key ring or include a key ring. | 11-11-2010 |
| 20110101009 | BEVERAGE CUP FOR USE IN SPACECRAFT OR WEIGHTLESS ENVIRONMENTS - A beverage cup comprised by an open top and at least one channel defined by a corner with an acute angle so placed that the channel runs along the cup side from the cup bottom to the cup rim. In the absence of significant gravitational force as found in microgravity, weightless or weightlessness of spacecraft or the International Space Station, capillary forces between the beverage and the cup wall allow the beverage to creep along the channel and be in near proximity to the open cup rim. Lips placed at or near the channel at the rim can readily sip, drink, and consume the beverage without the need for a straw and without undue spillage for normal drinking motions including toasting. The channel conducts the beverage via capillary forces from the bottom of the cup to the rim until the beverage has been consumed. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20110297688 | DRINKING VESSEL - A drinking vessel is disclosed which channels aromatic vapors of the beverage to the nose of the drinker. The vessel has a generally barrel-shaped body which has a bottom, a belly and a top, along with a front and back. An opening at the top of the body extends upwardly along a plane from the front of the body to the back of the body at an angle α. The diameter of the belly is greater than the diameter of the vessel at its bottom or at the opening of the body. When provided with a handle, the vessel serves as a coffee cup. Made of glass without a handle it serves as a spirits glass. When provided with a stem it serves as a wine glass. | 12-08-2011 |
| 20120080439 | Travel Mug for Microwave Oven - The present invention relates to a travel mug that is made of metal materials and can be used for microwave oven, comprising: a container having a double-layered structure with an inner shell and an outer shell, wherein said inner shell and said outer shell are joined by a joint in such a way that a cavity is provided therebetween, and a heat transfer medium is filled to at least part of said cavity; a first neat transfer member and a second transfer member formed from the bottom of said outer shell; a handle formed on one side of said outer shell; a pressure release device formed at one side of said outer shell; and a lid having a receiver part forming a concave portion to receive said joint. | 04-05-2012 |
| 20130200087 | CUP SLEEVE CLIP - The invention is directed to a clip that enhances the function of a beverage cup sleeve, such that the clip affords additional protection from hot liquids, diminishes spillage, reduces slipping, is compact, light-weight, and reusable or disposable. Briefly, the invention is directed to a cup sleeve clip for use with a cup sleeve. The clip is formed from an elongated structure. Hooks are formed at opposite ends of the structure, along the length on one side with the open side of each hook directed to the opposite end of the elongated structure, to form a shape similar to a compacted “C” shape. The hooks engage with the upper and lower edges of the sleeve. At least one cantilevered handle is attached to the upper end on the opposite side of the structure. The cantilevered tab engages with the user's hand or an object to assist in supporting the cup. | 08-08-2013 |
| 20140034661 | Device for storing liquid - A device for storing liquid comprises a housing having side walls, an inner cavity wherein said housing comprises two unequal vertical parts and is designed to prevent said liquid being spilled and to revert to the vertical position when the vertical symmetry axis of said device leaves the original. The center of mass of said device filled with said liquid is at the bottom of said housing, lower than the geometrical center of said device. The lower outer surface of said housing is convex and is a sphere segment. The upper part of said walls of said housing is bent towards said inner cavity to form a central aperture for filling and emptying said inner cavity such that said liquid stored in said inner cavity cannot be spilled when said device leaves the vertical. | 02-06-2014 |
| 20140054305 | CUP HOLDER WITH RECESSED MOVABLE HANDLE - A cup holder sidewall having a sidewall including a pair of recesses situated on opposite sides of a vertical midline, each of the recesses including at least one socket portion. A pair of handle elements adapted to be received wholly within the pair of recesses in the sidewall, each of the handle elements including at least one socket engaging portion received in the at least one socket portion of one of the recesses. The socket engaging portions being pivotable within the socket portions so as to permit the handle elements to be displaced from within the sidewall recesses to a position projecting outward from the sidewall sufficiently to permit the pair of handle elements to be grasped in one hand. | 02-27-2014 |
| 20140069945 | Cup With Repositionable Handles - An infant cup includes a container, and at least one handle with a first distal end, a second distal end, and a gripping portion. The distal ends of the at least one handle are coupled to the container, and the handle is repositionable between a deployed position and a stored position. When the handle is configured to the stored position, the gripping portion of the handle is positioned proximate to the container. When the handle is configured to the deployed position, the gripping portion is positioned away from container. In addition, the infant cup may include a second handle that also contains a deployed position and a stored position. | 03-13-2014 |
