400 55'~~2 0 0 This invention relates to the field of holders for containers, and in particular for an improved holder for storing cups of fluid and maintaining them at a desired temperature.
There are already holders manufactured which are principally designed to store containers of a cylindrical shape. These however do not accommodate an open tapered container satisfactorily, having been designed principally for an even cylindrical container.
The object of this invention is to tailor the said holder to, specifically, principally, readily and satisfactorily accommodate and fit various tapering open drink containers, overcoming the problem of instability on usage whether due to either excess material at the lower edge or to limited access at the upper aperture.
Both of these problems occur if an open tapering drink container full of fluid, is inserted into a holder which has been designed principally for a cylindrical container of even dimension.
These problems are overcome by the present invention, which is a flexible tapering insulating holder for tapering drinking cups, characterized essentially by a truncated conical shape of uniform height and circular cross-section, which is cut from a flat flexible rubber insulating sheet material, such that the circumference at the base is narrower than the circumference at the top of the holder, constituting, when joined at its edges to form a seam, the said insulating holder As a result of the replication of the standardized pattern applicable to the outside surface walls of tapering drinking containers,the said insulating holder, is similarly characterized by a circular outside surface having the lower circumference narrower in diamete=- than the upper, constituting a hollow interior of a size and specific contour to readily accommodate said tapering cups or drink containers for which it has specifically been invented.
-1- To overcome the problem of fitting a tapered drink container exactly, and affording required stability, the said insulating holder is further characterized by the usage of a flexible rubber insulating material such as 'Neoprene' TM and said material being cut to a pattern specifically designed to be smaller in circumference at the base than at the top and of uniform height such as depicted in Figure 3. (page The flexible rubber insulating holder may be produced utilising material of varying thickness and in two forms, either with a floor or without according to the insulating capabilities required.
*Figure 1 (page 3) is a three dimensional representation of the said insulating holder 1 having a circular outside surface 3 which is narrower in diameter at the base than at the top Figure 2 (page 4) is a vertical section of the holder depicting an inserted tapering drink container 2. The tapering feature of the said insulating holder 4 to especially accommodate a tapering 18 drink container is also depicted 6.
