Description
HANDLE FOR BEVERAGE CAN
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This Application claims priority on patent Application 200720146207.5 filed on July 2, 2007 in China.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to articles for daily use, preferred a tool for holding, especially preferred a structure for holding beverage can.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Workers, who need the use of ladders and work during hot weather require cool drinks usually contained in metal cans. The can handle enables the beverage to be attached to a working tool belt or hook keeping hands free to ascend ladders.
Because the can is metal it transfers heat or cold readily. Thus a beverage can that has been chilled will feel cold to the hand. Also the heat of the hand will warm up the beverage in the can faster than the drinker might desire.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of the present invention to provide a handle for beverage can, which could firmly hold beverage can and easy to carry.
In order to realize said object, the technical means are, Handle for Beverage Can comprises an upper portion, a middle portion and a lower portion, where the shape of said upper portion and lower portion is matched to that of the top and bottom edge of said beverage can, as to the upper portion and lower portion could grip the beverage can. And said middle portion connects said upper portion and lower portion.
The handle as defined before, wherein said upper portion includes a top portion clasps the top edge of said beverage can.
The handle as defined before, wherein said lower portion includes a gripping means which comprises a convexity shaped to the approximate shape of the bottom edge of the beverage can.
The handle as defined before, wherein the middle portion is generally arcuate in overall configuration so as to form said handle, spaced away from the sidewall of said beverage can.
The handle as defined before, wherein said handle is of one piece, integral construction made through stretch and curve, without any joints.
The handle as defined before, wherein said handle comprises a resilient material selected from the group consisting of plastic or and metal.

Taking such means, drinker could attach the middle portion to his belt and let the upper and lower portion grip to the edge of the beverage can. It is convenient for user to detach the beverage can and enjoy a drink. The means also avoid the direct contact between hand and cooled drink.
These and further objects of the invention will become more readily apparent upon a consideration of the following commentary taken in conjunction with the appended drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
FICx 1 is a main view of a embodiment of the utility model;
FIG. 2 is a view taken from the left side of FIG 1;
FIG 3. is a view of the embodiment during use, and FIGS. 4A-4D are Schematic illustration of the process of the embodiment during use.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
FIG 1 is a main view of an embodiment of the invention. The handle 4 for beverage can comprises upper portion 1, middle portion 2, lower portion 3. The upper portion 1, the middle portion 2 and the lower portion 3 are of one piece, integral construction made of metal or plastic. The lower portion 3 of the handle 4 includes means 30 for gripping the edge 31 of the bottom portion of the beverage can.
Advantageously, the gripping means 30 comprises a convexity shaped to the approximate shape of the bottom edge 31 of the beverage can. And said upper portion 1 includes a top portion 10 which perfectly clasps the edge 11 of the top portion of the beverage can.
FIG. 2 is a view taken from the left side of FIG. 1.
According to FIG 3 and FIGS. 4A-4D, in operation, the top portion 10 of the upper portion 1 is engaged into the top edge 11 of the beverage can (FIGS. 4A, B).
The middle portion is then slightly flexed sufficient to permit attachment of the lower portion 3 of the handle 4 so as to engage the bottom edge 31 of the beverage can into the gripping means 30 of the lower portion 3 (FIG 4C). Thus the beverage can is firmly gripped by the upper and lower portion of the handle (FIG 4D).
Detachment from the beverage can is simply the reverse of the foregoing process. The middle portion 2 could be attached to the user's leather belt or a hanging strap, which makes it possible for drinker to bring a beverage can during work.
The handle is preferably of unitary construction for ease of fabrication and economy of costs, and comprises an appropriate resilient material, such as a plastic or a metal. The material comprising the handle must be sufficiently rigid to support a full beverage can, yet be sufficiently flexible to permit attachment and detachment of the upper portion and lower portion so as to grip the respective edges of the beverage can. Preferably, the handle comprises a plastic or metal material, so as to minimize heat transfer between the user's hand and the beverage can.
Thus, there has been disclosed a handle for a beverage can for engagement with the top and bottom edges of the beverage can. Various changes and modifications of an obvious nature will make themselves available to those of ordinary skill in the art, and all such changes and modifications are considered to be within the scope of the appended claims.
These and further objects of the invention will become more readily apparent upon a consideration of the following commentary taken in conjunction with the appended drawings.
