Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a disposable cup for cold or hot drinks, such as coffee and iced drinks served in different establishments from the catering industry, comprising on the one hand a drinking hole for sipping the drink, and on the other hand, a hole to pour sugar or other additives and to introduce a stirrer to shake the content of the cup and thus favour the dissolution of the additives. It is also taken into account, as in the case of very cold drinks, such as iced drinks, that the stirrer has an opening for a drinking straw.
  • the present invention solves the stated problem since it allows, once the content has been served and the lid has been coupled to the container, to add extras or additives (sugar, milk, etc.), to shake the content of the cup and to drink the content through the drinking hole made on the lid, all this without having to lift the lid.
  • the lid has a central slot whereby additives are poured and a stirrer is introduced, said stirrer with a special configuration that allows the coupling to the lid, the rotation thereof performing handle functions to shake the content, and the closure of said central slot in such a way that it minimizes the loss of heat and/or cold, depending whether it is a hot or cold drink, and it prevents the liquid to spill in case it accidently turns over.
  • the stirrer presents an opening to introduce a drinking straw. The stirrer can be put in or taken out to pour more additives as many times as desired.
  • the invention relates to a disposable cup with rotary stirrer according to claim 1. Preferred embodiments are defined in the dependent claims.
  • the disposable cup with rotary stirrer comprises a container, a stirrer, a lid that can be coupled to the container, and an opening to let the stirrer through; the stirrer has, near to one of its ends of a first horizontal section, a second vertical section that goes through the opening of the lid, and a third section tilted in relation to the vertical and forming an ⁇ angle with the second vertical section, the end part protruding and performing handle functions.
  • the opening of the lid is circular and it is configured to allow the pouring of additives, being said opening substantially located in the middle of the lid.
  • the stirrer presents, in the upper part of the second vertical section, an:
  • the stirrer is preferably flared in the end of the section that is introduced in the container in the form of a scoop.
  • the stirrer can present a plurality of holes made alongside the section that is introduced in the container.
  • the lid can preferably present either an opening or a nozzle located near its periphery performing functions of a drinking orifice.
  • the upper end of the lid preferably has a raised edge in relation to the surface thereof. In this case the opening performing the function of the drinking orifice can be located on the raised edge of the lid.
  • the opening of the lid is preferably raised in relation to the surface thereof.
  • the third section tilted in relation to the vertical can form a 90° angle with respect to the second vertical section, or a minor angle but sufficient to allow stirring the content.
  • the lid can be vaulted for cold drinks such us iced drinks.
  • the stirrer can in turn comprise a hole to let a drinking straw through, being said hole concentric to the lower circular section.
  • a container 1 a stirrer 2, and a lid 3, preferably made of disposable material.
  • a lid 3 preferably made of disposable material.
  • it is a cup with a flat lid suitable for drinks, such as coffee with milk, either hot or cold.
  • the lid 3 is coupled in the habitual way to the container 1.
  • the lid 3 has a slot or circular opening 4 in its central area with a D TAP diameter and several functions: to allow the stirrer 2 inside and to allow the pouring of sugar and other additives to the content, normally liquid, into the container 1 once the container 1 has been filled with the corresponding drink and the lid 3 has been coupled thereof.
  • the lid 3 presents an opening or slot 13 on its upper end whereby the user will be able to drink the liquid content once the lid 3 and the stirrer 2 have been coupled.
  • an opening it is also possible to use a nozzle performing the same function of drinking orifice, although in that case it would protrude higher with respect to the lid 3.
  • the stirrer has near to one of its ends of a first horizontal section 20, a second vertical section 5 that goes through the opening 4 of the lid 3, and a third section 21 tilted with respect to the vertical forming an a angle, an angle that allows to stir the content, with the second vertical section 5, the end part 6 protruding performing handle functions.
  • the ⁇ angle is approximately 90°
  • the first section 20, the second vertical section 5 and, the third tilted section 21 form some bends in C shape.
  • the angle is approximately 45°, achieving the handle effect as well.
  • the stirrer 2 is introduced through the opening 4 of the lid 3.
  • the stirrer will have to be tilted when the bends in C shape are being introduced, in the case of Figure 1A , located in one of the ends of section 12 that is introduced in the container 1.
  • the stirrer presents a flared section 10 in the form of a scoop.
  • the stirrer 2 presents an upper circular section 7, perpendicular to the second vertical section 5, with a D SUP diameter (shown in Figure 2B ) bigger than D TAP diameter of the circular opening 4 of the lid.
  • the upper end of the lid 3 presents a raised edge 15 in relation to the surface thereof, where the drinking orifice is preferably placed, said drinking orifice that can be either an opening 13 or a nozzle. Said edge 15 will remain at a slightly higher height from stirrer 2, the end 6 protruding to facilitate the rotation of the stirrer 2.
  • Figure 3 shows in detail the fitting between the stirrer 2 and the lid 3.
  • the stirrer presents, in the upper part of the second vertical section 5 of the bends in C shape, a lower circular section 8, located underneath and parallel to the upper circular section 7 and with a diameter D INF inferior to the diameter D SUP of said upper circular section 7.
  • the D INF diameter of the lower circular section 8 is slightly bigger than the D TAP diameter of the circular opening 4 of the lid 3, the lower circular section 8, made of a disposable material, could be introduced by means of pressure into the container, leaving the upper circular section 7 above the lid 3, and the edge of the circular opening 4 of the lid remaining fit to an intermediate slot 9 of the stirrer 2, said slot located between both the upper circular section 7 and the lower circular section 8, allowing the stirrer 2 to rotate without pulling out from the lid.
  • Figures 4A and 4B show the stirrer-lid coupling in detail, where it can be seen that the edge of the opening 4, raised with respect to the lid, is left practically horizontal once the pressure has been exerted with the stirrer 2 and introduced the lower circular section 8 in the container.
  • FIG 5 schematically shows another specific embodiment of the invention, wherein the stirrer 2 presents holes 11 made in the section that is introduced in the container to facilitate the rotation of the stirrer and prevent rotation resistance caused by the liquid in the container.
  • the present invention can also be applied to cold drinks and iced drinks.
  • it can be implemented, as shown in Figure 6 , a vaulted lid with a central opening 24 therein for the introduction of the stirrer-drinking straw.
  • the second vertical section 5 does not start from the centre of the lower circular section (8), as is the case in the different embodiments of the invention shown in figures 1 to 5 , but it starts from one of its ends, thus allowing the passage of a drinking straw to sip the content of the cup, through opening 24 made in the centre of said lower circular section (8).
  • This is also applicable for the cup with flat lid of figures 1A and 1B .
