Definitions

  • the present invention comprises a device for mixing and capping beverages which is integrated by a sliding mixer body and a hollow tubular piece;
  • the mixing body has a flap that has a box and a plug in its lower part at its back; the hollow tubular part is inserted in the mixer body; it is in this way that the user can move the mixer body towards the bottom of the hollow tubular part and thus, shake the device in the beverage of his choice to homogenize it, or the user can also slide the mixer body to the middle part of the hollow tubular part in such a way that in addition to inserting the hollow tubular part into the opening of the lid, of the disposable cup of the beverage, the cap is inserted under pressure in said opening of the lid thus avoiding spilling the beverage while the user transports it .
  • beverage stirrers are known in the market with different forms that are used to mix from alcoholic beverages to hot beverages such as coffee.
  • alcoholic beverages we find the model patent 10294 where the agitator is a bar with a slightly more bulky finish and in its upper part we find a flattened shape with a motif that also serves for the end user to hold the agitator from there .
  • To stir coffee we also find multiple objects on the market such as wooden tabs, disposable plastic spoons and straws to name a few.
  • the spoons have a suitable contact area to remove the drink but normally when they are disposable they only work for small glasses while, due to their height, in medium and large glasses they cannot reach the bottom and therefore do not serve to mix in that size of glasses
  • Another problem in drinks such as coffee is that many users prefer to drink it through a straw because there is a belief that coffee drunk directly from the glass stains the teeth and therefore it is better to drink it through a straw so that the front teeth do not are in contact with the drink and thus do not stain or stain less.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide an article of manufacture comprising a hollow tubular part, a sliding mixing body having an integrated fin and a plug in its lower part; the hollow tubular part is inserted under pressure into said mixing body; it is in this way that the user finds the present device in the different centers of consumption of beverages that are served in disposable cups;
  • the present invention provides the user with three functions in a single device: a beverage stirrer with the height and sufficient contact area to remove the liquid in any size of vessel, a stopper that prevents the opening of the lid from splashing liquid, and a straw that also allows you to absorb the drink from the glass.

  • the box (4) in its upper part, has a hollow space (6) of circular shape that runs longitudinally through the box (4) and the plug (5); it is through this hollow space (6) that the lower end (7) of the hollow tubular part (1) is inserted under pressure;
  • the hollow tubular part (1) in the mixer body (2) is that the present device distributes to the centers where drinks are served that are served in disposable cups with lid so that there the user slides the mixer body (2 ) towards the lower end (7) of the hollow tubular piece (1) if you want to mix the beverage, or slide it to the middle part (8) of the hollow tubular piece (1) if you want to cover the opening (9) in the lid (10) of the disposable cup (11) (not shown in this figure 1); It should be noted that regardless of the position in which the user arranges the mixing body (2) in the tubular part (1), the drink can always be absorbed through the hollow space (12) of the hollow tubular part (1).
  • the hollow tubular part (1) of the present invention is shown in Figures 1 and 2; the hollow tubular part (1) is a cylindrical body of a long length that surrounds a hollow space (12); It should be mentioned that depending on the external diameter of the hollow tubular part (1), the internal diameter of the hollow space (6) in the box (4) of the mixing body (2) will be manufactured.
  • the hollow tubular part (1) serves to give the device of the present invention the height necessary for the mixing body (2) to reach the bottom of most disposable cups used in the market by removing the beverage from the bottom and achieving a better homogenization than current disposable stirrers;
  • the hollow tubular part (1) also serves to absorb the beverage contained in the vessel, regardless of the position where the mixing body (2) is located.
  • FIG. 10 An embodiment of the hollow tubular part (1) of the present invention is shown in Figure 10, where it is appreciated that once the hollow tubular part (1) is inserted through the circular hollow space (6) in the box ( 4) of the mixing body (2), the ends are flattened (13), for example by pressing them with a metal roller at a temperature that deforms the material of the ends (13) to form stops (14) that prevent once the mixing body (2) and the hollow tubular part ( 1) can be separated.
  • the materials from which the hollow tubular part (1) of the present invention can be made are polymeric materials such as polypropylene.
  • the mixing body (2) is one of the main parts of the present invention and is shown in figures 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7.
  • the mixing body (2) is composed of a fin (3) of a short thickness, which has a rectangular shape with rounded ends (15); said fin (3) has half of its rear part, on its vertical axis, the box (4) that has a rectangular bar shape and that when reaching the bottom of the fin (3) widens, so perpendicularly and equidistant, a certain length towards each end (15) of the fin (3) to form the cap (5) that has a perimeter equal to the perimeter of the opening (9) in the disposable lid (10), in this case for example, the plug (5) resembles a rectangle with rounded corners that in its lower part has a chamfer (16) along the entire perimeter; in its upper part and throughout its perimeter the plug (5) has a flange (17) of a short thickness; the mixing body (2), in its upper part
  • the hollow space (6) Being superimposed on a segment of the outer side (19) of the box (4), the hollow space (6) forms a separation (22) in the middle of the front face (23) of the box (4); said separation (22) widens a short thickness before finishing at the top of the cap (5); the hollow sword (21) also forms a notch (24) in a segment of the chamfer (16).
  • the device of the present invention has a fin (3) in one piece, this allows a larger space to put the logo of the company that sells the drinks, this may be a minimal detail but For advertising purposes it matters.
  • the fin (3) has this shape because it is located outside the passage of the hollow tubular part (1), in this case, on the upper side (25) of the plug (5).
  • the materials from which the mixing body (2) is formed are polymeric such as polypropylene or high density polyethylene.
  • Figure 2 shows the way in which the hollow tubular part (1) and the mixing body (2) of the present invention are assembled; Initially, the hollow tubular part (1) is inserted into the mixing body (2) through the hollow sword (6), then the hollow tubular part (1) is still pushed until it passes through the hollow space (21) and exceed the bottom of the cap (5).

Having stops (14) at the ends (13) of the hollow tubular part (1) prevents the mixing body (2) from accidentally detaching into the user's beverage.
  • the diameter of the hollow tubular part (1) may vary and sometimes be larger than the hollow space (6).
  • the hollow tubular part (1) instead of inserting the hollow tubular part (1) through the hollow space (6), it is inserted below the plug (5) through the hollow space (21).
  • the function of the countersink (20) is to prevent a right angle at the transition point from the larger diameter of the hollow space (21) to the smaller diameter of the hollow space (6).
  • Figure 8 shows the way in which the mixing body (2) of the present invention slides over the hollow tubular part (1), in this case, to be configured such that it serves as a plug over the opening (9) in the cover (10).
  • an objective of the present invention is to allow the mixing body (2) to slide up or down on the hollow tubular part (1) but to prevent said mixing body (2) from rotating on said hollow tubular part (1) when mixing the drink; This is not so easy to achieve since the hollow tubular part (1) has significant variations in its diameter, so that a system that attaches the mixing body (2) to the hollow tubular part (1) must be able to adapt to said variations so that, when the diameter of said hollow tubular part (1) is greater than the average, the mixing body (2) is not so tight that it is uncomfortable or impossible to move by the user, and also, in case the diameter of the hollow tubular piece (1) is smaller than the average, that the mixing body (2) is not so loose that when mixing the drink, turn on the hollow tubular piece (1) losing its function of mixing the drink; To avoid any of the two situations outlined above, the box (4)
