Description

2 AT 010 472 U1

The present invention relates to liquid containers, in particular rotating containers.

A glass is known for receiving liquids, this glass has side walls and a bottom and is mounted in a holder (US 5, 294, 018 A). 5

This glass can not provide mixing of the liquid contained therein because of its fixed support.

Likewise, a liquid container is known, the side walls and a bottom has io (EP 1216639 A).

This liquid container can not provide mixing of liquid contained therein by rotating about its vertical axis because it is fixedly mounted on a horizontal plane. A sidewall and bottomed liquid container (RU 42940 U1) comes closest to the proposed invention due to the combination of essential features.

This liquid container provides mixing of a liquid therein by rotating 20 about its vertical axis, but it can not provide complete filling of the container with the liquid because a plane of its upper edge extends obliquely to a horizontal plane.

The technical effect of using the invention is to mix liquid 25 within the container by rotating the container about its vertical axis on a horizontal plane together with maximum filling thereof, and avoiding possible spillage of liquid due to a sloping upper edge.

This technical effect is achieved in that the liquid container has side walls 30 and a bottom, an outer surface of the bottom being provided with a member for rotating the container, which element is shaped like a hemisphere or a cone at the intersection of the central axes.

The plane in which the upper edge of the container walls lies must be parallel to the horizontal plane.

If this plane extends obliquely to the horizontal plane, the vertical thrust axis of the container is offset from the vertical axis of rotation of the container to the higher edge of the container. 40

Accordingly, the container bottom exerts a stronger pressure on the surface on which the container is placed and generates a braking action as the container rotates.

The maximum rotational action of the container is only achieved when its vertical axis of rotation coincides with its vertical axis of thrust.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, in which:

Fig. 1 is a general view of the liquid container; Fig. 2 is a view A thereof as seen in Fig. 1; and

Fig. 3 is the same view, wherein the container rotary member is conically shaped.

The liquid container has side walls 1 and a bottom 2. An outer surface of the bottom 2 is provided with an element 3 for rotating the container about its vertical axis. The element 3 is like a hemisphere or a cone at the intersection of the symmetry axis

Claims (1)

3 AT010 472U1 sen of the container bottom 2 shaped. The height h of the container rotating member 3 is determined depending on the radius R of the container bottom, and its value is large enough to allow rotation of the container but small enough to prevent the container from fluctuating. An upper edge of the container side walls 1 is arranged so as to extend parallel to a horizontal plane. The liquid container is used as follows. Any beverage is poured into the container and the container is caused to rotate on a horizontal plane by means of the element 3, so that the beverage within the container becomes homogeneous, depending on the magnitude of the applied force. Claim: 15 liquid container having side walls and a bottom, wherein an outer surface of the container bottom is provided with a member for rotating the container, which element is shaped as a hemisphere or a cone at the interface of the central axes, characterized in that an upper edge of the Container side walls is arranged so that it extends parallel to a horizontal plane 20.
