Description

The present invention relates to a container for solid and liquid food and beverages with a receiving body, a handle part and a stand.

Such vessels are known as drinking glasses or fruit bowls or the like. In the case of drinking glasses, such as wine or cocktail glasses, the receiving body and the stand are connected to one another by a handle part designed as a stem. In the case of fruit bowls, the handle part can lie in the area of the receiving body and form a unit with it.

It is an object of the present invention to improve and beautify the handling of vessels of the type mentioned at the outset.

This object is achieved in that a light and / or sound source is attached in or on the vessel.

In this way, a beverage or fruit, for example, located in the vessel can advantageously be illuminated, which can result in interesting effects which appeal to the user of such vessels.

The light source can be designed in a simple manner as a battery-operated lamp. It is also possible to design the light source from fluorescent phosphor, which itself lights up and can be recharged is when exposed to light. Finally, the light source can also consist of self-illuminated glass fiber bundles.

The sound source can be designed as a miniature loudspeaker, and already known microchips with a music program can be used.

It is advantageous to attach the light source to or in the handle part.

The handle part can have a hollow interior for receiving batteries and electrical switching elements. This arrangement is particularly suitable for wine, cocktail, Pils glasses or the like, which have a stem as a handle part.

It is advantageous to arrange the light bulb at the upper end of the handle part, since then the content of the receiving body is particularly well illuminated.

A particularly good light distribution results if the handle part is closed at the upper end by a lens-like curvature to which the receiving body is adapted.

An even better use of light is obtained if, below the lenticular curvature, an approximately hemispherical reflector is attached to the side of the light bulb and from below. The scattering losses of the light source are reduced to a minimum, so that the entire luminosity is available for illuminating the contents of the vessel.

Another advantageous possibility is to mount the light source on or in the stand. The stand can be hollow, with a lamp attached to the upper end of the stand.

The upper end of the stand can also be closed off by a lenticular curvature to which the lower end of the handle part is adapted. This ensures in a particularly simple manner that the handle part can act as a light guide.

A particularly appealing light effect results from the fact that the handle part is hollow and itself is designed as a light guide or light-conducting objects such as glass rods or the like are arranged in the cavity.

It is particularly advantageous for parties if the handle part has recesses formed transversely to the light axis, in which inserts with lettering can be inserted. In this way, for example, each drinking glass can be assigned a name that makes it easier to find the glasses again. A look into the glass immediately provides information about who owns the glass.

If the insert is designed as a prism or mirror, the light beam emitted by the light source is deflected transversely to the longitudinal axis of the handle part, so that, for example, the name of the owner can be read from the side.

Appealing color effects can also be achieved in that the handle part is hollow and filled with colored liquids and / or light reflecting objects. Part of the light emitted by the light source is also in this embodiment passed from the stand over the handle part to the receiving body.

The light source can also be arranged on or in the receiving body.

According to a further embodiment, the light source is arranged in the form of a stirring rod on the receiving body. The stirring rod can have spherical ends facing away from one another, a light bulb being arranged in a first end and a battery being arranged in the second end, and the battery and light bulb being connected to the line by the stirring rod.

In another advantageous embodiment, the stirring rod is hollow on the inside for receiving batteries and is spherical on its end facing the receiving body and has a light bulb in this end. A widening at the end of the stirring rod facing away from the receiving body can thereby be dispensed with.

Furthermore, it is advantageously possible for the stirring rod to be hollow on the inside and to have a plurality of light-emitting diodes connected to one another and to a current source. This results in a uniform light distribution over the entire stir bar. The power source can be a so-called button cell to save space.

Furthermore, it is possible for a disk-shaped, at least partially hollow part for receiving a light bulb, a small battery and / or light-emitting diodes to be detachably attached to the end of the stirring rod facing away from the receiving body. This disc-shaped part can be exchangeable in such a way that used batteries are exchanged with it, or that the disk-shaped part in each case represents motifs corresponding to the drink or the contents of the receiving body, such as a lemon wedge, strawberry or the like.

The stirring rod can also advantageously be hollow on the inside and filled with a fluorescent fluorescent liquid or a fluorescent rod. This eliminates the need for a power source, although the possibility is also maintained of achieving different color effects with the stirrer by changing the fluorescent rod.

The end of the stirring rod facing the receiving body is advantageously puzzle-like in order to improve the stirring properties, e.g. B. designed as the striking end of a golf club.

According to a further embodiment, the light source is designed in the form of a circular disc with a cut-out radial segment and can be plugged onto the edge of the receiving body with a recess. The light source designed in this way can be designed, for example, as a lemon slice.

A switch with a switching element protruding into the space thereof can be fitted in the recess, so that the switch is automatically actuated when the lemon slice is plugged on and the lemon slice lights up in the vessel.

It is particularly advantageous that a coupling zone for the circular disk-shaped light source is located at the end of the stirring rod facing away from the receiving body is provided. As a result, the circular disk-shaped light source can be plugged onto the edge of the receiving body on the one hand, or coupled to the end of the stirring rod facing away from the receiving body.

It is advantageous if the coupling zone is adapted to the cut-out radial segment.

A simple design of the coupling zone results from the fact that it has a locking recess for the switch. The switch button in the cut-out radial segment therefore has a double function. In addition to its switching function, the switch button also serves as a resilient locking projection.

An advantageous possibility is to design the circular disk-shaped light source in the form of a ladybird, a cherry or a ball. While beetles and cherries can be designed to be clip-on at the edge of the receiving body, the ball can also be inserted into the receiving body for use. The light and sound sources are advantageously connected to a switch.

Another advantageous possibility is to design the circular disk-shaped light source in the form of an apple or a heart, which, like the lemon slice, can be clipped onto the edge of the receiving body or onto the coupling zone of the stirring rod.

According to a further embodiment of the invention, the light source is designed as a hollow body which can be inserted and closed in the receiving body and which has a battery and a light bulb or a battery and a plurality Contains LEDs, or is filled with phosphor. In this way, drinks can also be illuminated, in the vessels of which there is generally no stirring rod. Such drinks include z. B. Whiskey.

It is advantageous if the light source is in the form of an ice cube. It is possible, for example, that the phosphor in the hollow body designed as an ice cube also has heat-storing properties, so that by previously cooling the ice cube in the freezer compartment it can both illuminate and cool the beverage. Changing your own temperature can result in interesting color effects.

A switch which responds to moisture is particularly suitable for switching the light sources which can be inserted into the vessel on and off, so that when the light sources are inserted or when liquid is poured into the glass, they begin to shine.

It is also possible, particularly in the case of light sources arranged in the vessel itself, to mount the switch on the handle part as a manually operated pressure switch. In this way, the drinking vessel or the fruit bowl can be illuminated at any time as desired.

Another possibility is to design the switch as a contact switch which projects downward beyond the stand. Such a switch is always actuated when the drinking vessel is placed on the stand or is picked up again from its base. In this way, e.g. B. can be achieved that the glass always shines when it is led to the mouth, but remains unlit when it is on the table.

It is particularly advantageous if, in addition to the contact switch, a further three-stage switch connected to it is provided, in the first switching stage of which the power supply is interrupted, in the second switching stage of which the contact switch is short-circuited and in whose third switching stage the current is supplied via the contact switch. This means that the lighting of the drinking vessel is switched off in the first switching stage. In the second switching stage, the lighting is permanently on. In the third switching stage, the lighting of the drinking vessel depends on whether the vessel stands on a surface, i.e. H. that the contact switch is closed, or whether the drinking vessel is held in the hand. It is also possible to use the third switching stage to switch on the flashing lights.

It is advantageous if the switch is attached to the handle part. It can then be easily operated with the hand holding the vessel. According to another embodiment, the switch is attached to the stand. It can then be easily operated with the other hand. Guests who do not know where to put their hands should find out about interesting playing opportunities.

The switch is preferably designed as a rotatable switching ring enclosing the handle part or the stand. More precisely, the handle of the switch is designed as a ring. In this way, the switch can be elegantly integrated into the handle part or the stand without the appearance of the handle part or the stand changing depending on the switching position. This switching ring can also be designed as a two-stage switch, which only knows the switching positions on and off.

According to a further embodiment, the handle part and / or the stand are detachably attached to the receiving body. This has the advantage that both the receiving body and the grip part can be exchanged for other receiving bodies. It is therefore possible, for example, to design the receiving body as a disposable part, while the handle part and the stand are made from higher quality materials. It is even conceivable that the receiving body is already to be bought filled with a drink and then only needs to be plugged onto the handle part. If the filled receptacle is sold, its top can be covered by a sealed lid.

For the parts of the vessel which can be detached from one another, it is advantageous if an axially downwardly extending circumferential web is formed on the underside of the receptacle body and forms a snap closure with a circumferential recess in the upper end of the handle part. With this design, the exchanged receiving bodies simply need to be plugged onto the handle part. As with all the exchangeable receptacles, it is also possible here to replace, for example, a receptacle intended for sparkling wine with one for wine or beer with the same stand and handle. This is particularly interesting for parties, since the drinking vessels have an aesthetically appealing exterior, although the receptacle bodies, which can be manufactured relatively cheaply, can be designed as disposable articles. This eliminates the annoying rinsing of the drinking vessels after a party.

A particularly inexpensive and simple solution for e.g. B. made of plastic it is when the Handle part and / or the stand have a cylindrical upper end to which the underside of the receiving body is adapted. The underside of the receiving body will conveniently tightly enclose the upper end of the handle part or the stand, so that the receiving body can only be removed from the handle part with the application of a force.

For detaching the receiving body from the handle part or the stand, it is particularly favorable if a push button is attached to the handle part and / or the stand for detaching the receiving body.

The universal usability of the drinking vessels can be increased in a simple manner by the fact that the underside of the receiving body has an at least partially flat contact surface. Then z. B. a wine glass, which consists of a receiving body, a handle and a stand, can be converted into a drinking bowl for rice wine or the like by removing the receiving body. In this way, the usability of drinking service can be increased considerably.

According to a further embodiment, a holder for releasably connecting the vessel to another object is attached to the vessel. This other object can be, for example, a plate, which is then held by the drinking vessel; on the other hand, the drinking vessel itself can also be held at a table or other furniture. Both options are particularly advantageous if, for example, in standing parties there is insufficient space to place a drinking vessel. It is particularly simple if the holder is integrally connected to the handle part. It is conceivable that several handle parts in one household Brackets and handle parts with light sources are available so that the drinking vessels can be used for a new purpose by changing the handle parts.

The bracket can also be positively connected to the handle part. As with the positive connection, it is also possible with a positive connection to remove the holder from the handle part when it is not in use.

A particularly simple embodiment of the bracket results from the fact that the bracket is designed as a double-sided clamp. Furthermore, the holder can simply be designed as a slot arranged in the vessel, into which e.g. a plate with its edge can be inserted.

The holder can also have bores for inserting decorative objects or the like. These holes can be available alone, but it is also possible to combine the holder designed in this way with a clamp. For example, the entire handle can be equipped with holes for inserting decorative objects.

Another possibility is to design the holder as a ring that elastically surrounds the handle part. Decorative material such as flowers or the like can be clamped between the ring and the handle part. The handle part is advantageously made of rubber-elastic material.

According to a further embodiment, the vessel is in the handle part and / or the stand and / or the receptacle body with at least one further cavity for receiving solid or liquid food and beverages provided, which has a dispenser opening. In this way, e.g. B. a drinking vessel can be assigned the multiple function of holding a certain amount of solid foods such as nuts or the like in addition to the intake of drinks.

Such a dispenser can advantageously be provided in that the handle part has a dispenser opening to the stand which is cup-shaped on its upper side. In this way, the solid food and beverages stored in the cavity of the handle part can be removed from the top of the stand.

A particularly practical type of dispenser results from the fact that the stand of the vessel is provided with a cavity which is open towards the underside. In this way, the vessel z. B. nuts can be removed by the user simply holding a hand under the underside of the stand and slightly tilting the vessel so that the nuts get into the user's hand from the cavity.

It if it is attached to the openings of the cavities manually operable closure and metering flaps is particularly advantageous. In this way, the dispenser can be operated deliberately, and it is possible to dose the amount of nuts or the like removed.

According to a further embodiment of the vessel, the underside of the stand is provided with an eccentrically arranged dispenser opening, the underside of the dispenser also having a bottom which can be rotated relative to the dispenser and has a dispensing opening, by means of which bottom the dispenser opening can be opened and closed by twisting the same. This design of a donor for nuts or the like is structurally extremely simple and allows the accommodation and consumption of a beverage and solid food from a vessel.

According to a preferred embodiment, the receptacle and the stand are directly detachably connected to one another. The receptacle and stand take on the function of the handle. This is particularly advantageous in the case of cylindrical drinking vessels. The detachable connection of the stand to the receptacle enables different stands to be attached to a receptacle as required.

A simple detachable connection between the receptacle and the stand can be achieved in that both the receptacle and the stand are each hollow cylindrical with approximately the same diameter.

Although the stand can be attached to the receptacle by means of a screw or bayonet lock, it is preferably provided that the receptacle and the stand have radial circumferential grooves on their outer lateral surfaces at their mutually facing regions, in which a common, elastic clamping ring engages . This means that the common elastic clamping ring connects the stand and the receptacle.

In a preferred embodiment, the clamping ring is designed in cross section as an approximately C-shaped profile, the vertical web covering the joint between the receptacle and the stand, while the horizontal, free legs of the profile each engage in one of the circumferential grooves. In this way, the Clamping ring can be removed both from the receptacle and from the stand.

According to another embodiment, the clamping ring is integrally connected to the receptacle or the stand, while it engages in the groove of the stand or the receptacle in a detachable manner. This means that the clamping ring is firmly connected to one of the two parts and releasably connected to the other part.

In order to design the stand as a hollow receptacle for nuts, lighting, advertising media or the like, it is advantageous if the bottom of the stand is closed with a base.

A simple possibility of designing the stand as an ashtray results from the fact that the stand is formed horizontally divided, its lower half being pivotally connected to the upper half via a vertical pivot axis arranged in the cylinder jacket, eccentrically to the cylinder axis. This counteracts the bad behavior often observed at parties of sprinkling cigarette ash on the floor. With the stand designed in this way, every smoker can receive a drinking vessel in which an ashtray is integrated.

In particular for outdoor parties, it is advantageous if the stand is designed as a radio receiver or music player. This can save expensive, high-performance music systems, since every guest interested in music can put together a drinking vessel with a radio receiver. Due to the decentralized music supply, the different tastes of individual guests can also be taken into account will.

It is common to all of the exemplary embodiments that the vessel 1 according to the invention comprises a receiving body 2, a handle part 3 and a stand.

Turning to FIG. 1, it can be seen that in the exemplary embodiment shown there the vessel is designed as a drinking glass. The receiving body 2 can be designed as a transparent glass or plastic part. The handle part 3 is designed as a hollow cylinder and has a diameter that rod batteries can be accommodated in the interior. An electrically operated light bulb 6 is accommodated at the upper end 5 of the handle part 3. The light bulb is surrounded by a hemispherical reflector 7 which is open at the top. The reflector 7 and thus also the light bulb 6 are closed off at the upper end 5 of the grip part 3 by a lens-like curvature 8.

The diameter of the lens-shaped curvature is smaller than that of the reflector 7, so that a circumferential edge 9 extends radially outward from the lens-like curvature 8 at the division plane. In the circumferential edge, an axially downward also circumferential depression 10 is formed.

The underside 11 of the receiving body 2 is adapted to the upper end 5 of the grip part 3 and in particular also has a curvature 12 adapted to the curvature 8. An edge 13 extends from the lower edge of the arch 12 radially outwards. On the edge 13 a circumferential web is axially projecting, which engages in the recess 10 of the circumferential edge 9 of the handle part 3. This engagement creates the connection between the receiving body 2 and the handle part 3. Depending on the choice of material for the recess and the circumferential web 14, a snap closure can be achieved in this way, which enables the receiving body to be detached from the handle part and reattached. In addition to the completely drawn vessel, FIG. 1 shows another shape of a receiving body 2, which is of identical design on the underside, so that this receiving body can also be plugged onto the handle part 3. In this way, a whole series of different drinking vessels for different purposes can be realized with one and the same handle part 3.

The stand 3 of the vessel 1 shown also comprises a hemispherical thickening 15, behind which a contact switch (not shown) is hidden.

FIG. 2 shows a further exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Both in this figure and in all the other figures, reference numerals are used for the same and similar components, which correspond identically to one another and to those of the first exemplary embodiment described above. In the individual exemplary embodiments, only the differences are dealt with.

In the vessel 1 shown in FIG. 2, the light source is in the form of a light bulb, not shown, in the stand 4. The upper end 16 of the stand 4 is covered with a lens-like curvature 8. The cylindrical extending vertically upward from the stand 4 molded handle part 3 is hollow inside. In the interior of the handle part 3, which is open at the top in this example, stickers or part parts are accommodated, for example. It is also possible to accommodate tufts of glass fibers in the handle part, which guide the light emitted through the lens-like curvature 8 upwards to the receiving body 2.

FIG. 3 shows the handle part 3 and the stand 4 of a vessel in which the light source is in turn housed in the stand 4. At the upper end of the stand 4 there is a lens-like curvature 8, which allows the light to shine into the handle part 3 designed as a hollow body. The handle part 3 has recesses formed transversely to the light axis, into which transparent, colored inserts 17 made of paper or inserts 18 with lettering can be inserted. The inserts with lettering can also be made in the manner of a template, so that the light only passes through at the points that form the letters of the lettering.

As can be seen in the top view of the handle part, which is also shown in FIG. 3, the lettering appears when one looks into the glass from above.

FIG. 4 shows a vessel 1 in which the light source is also accommodated in the stand 4. The handle part 3 is designed as a conical intermediate piece, which has a closed cavity. The handle part 3 is made of transparent material and contains a colored liquid and reflective objects, such as. B. glass balls, lucky charms or the like .. At the upper end of the handle part 3 is in turn completed with a lens-like curvature, which the light guided by the light source from the stand through the handle part 3 is evenly distributed in the receiving body 2. The vessel shown in FIG. 4 can be made in one piece, but it is also possible to design the receptacle body 2 or the handle part 2 to be detachable.

Furthermore, FIG. 4 shows a light source in the form of a lemon slice 19 with a cut-out radial segment 20, which is attached to the edge of the receiving body 2. In the cut-out radial segment there is a switch 21 which projects into the radial segment 20 to such an extent that it is actuated when the lemon slice 19 is pushed onto the edge of the receiving body 2.

In addition, there is a cocktail stirrer in the receptacle body 2, which is rod-shaped and has spherical ends 23 and 24, a bulb 6 being accommodated in the spherical end 23 and a battery in the other end 24, which is connected to the bulb 6 in a line.

Another exemplary embodiment of a vessel with a receiving body 2 detachable from the handle part 3 and / or the stand 4 is shown in FIG.

In this embodiment, the receiving body 2 also forms the handle part 3. In the stand 4, a light bulb 6 is attached in the middle, as in the manner described above, 6 batteries 29 being arranged on the side of the light bulb.

As is not shown in more detail here, the receiving body is in the same way as that in FIG. 1 described embodiment attached with a snap on the stand 4. In the stand 4 there is also a push button 30 which is connected to an ejector 31 which is attached to the top 16 of the stand 4.

By pressing the push button 30, the ejector 31 is moved out of the upper side 16 of the stand 4 so that it presses against the lower side 11 of the receiving body 2. In this way, the snap connection between the receiving body 2 and the stand 4 is released, so that the receiving body is blown off. The receiving body 2 shown in this example also has an at least partially flat underside 11, on which the receiving body 2 can also be placed without a stand 4.

Turning now to FIG. 6, one recognizes a drinking vessel 1, the handle part 3 of which is provided with a further cavity 32. This cavity 32 can be arranged, for example, below the cavity above to accommodate the batteries. However, it is equally possible to provide the entire handle part 3 with the cavity 32.

The cavity 32 has at the bottom a dispenser opening 33 directed radially to the top of the stand 4, which is closed by a metering button 34 with a flap which cannot be recognized.

The outer edge 35 of the stand 4 is bent upwards, so that the stand 4 forms a shell.

The cavity 32 of the handle part 3 can be filled with nuts or the like, which can then be pressed at the push of a button Opening 33 reach the top of the stand 4 and can be removed from there.

FIG. 7 shows a further example of a dispenser for solid food and beverages. The drinking vessel shown there has the cavity 32 in the stand 4. An opening 33 is provided on the underside of the stand 4, which opening can be closed by a metering flap 38. The metering flap 38 is connected to the handle part 3 via a linkage 39 in the interior of the stand 4. The handle part 3 is relative to the stand 4 in the axial direction against the force of a spring, not shown, down on the stand 4. By such a displacement, the metering flap 38 is pressed down so that it opens the opening 33, whereby z. B. can leak existing nuts inside the cavity.

The easiest way to actuate this dispenser is to hold the drinking vessel on the handle part 3 with one hand. The other hand grips below the stand 4, which is moved upwards in the direction of the handle part 3. This movement opens the metering flap 38, and nuts or the like roll through the opening 33 into the hand held under the stand 4. If you take your hand away from the underside of the stand, the opening 33 closes again, as a result of which the nuts can no longer emerge from the cavity 32.

A further exemplary embodiment of a drinking vessel 1 according to the invention is shown in FIG. The vessel 1 shown there has a handle part 3 that can be detached from the receiving body 2 and from the stand 4. The handle part 3 is approximately cylindrical as a stem of the drinking vessel. Is integrally connected to the handle part 3 a radially projecting bracket 40 designed as a clamp. With its lower clamping leg 41, the bracket 40 is integrally connected to the handle part 3. The upper clamping leg 42, on the other hand, is movable relative to the lower clamping leg 41 and relative to the handle part 3. Such a movement opens a radially spaced from the grip part 3 clamping jaw 43. The clamping jaw of the holder can be designed so that smaller plates can be clamped there, which can then be clamped by the drinking vessel 1 using the holder 40 on larger plates, what is particularly advantageous for standing receptions with a buffet, since there is no space there to put the drinking vessels down.

Instead of the bracket designed as a clamp, a fork-shaped bracket can also be provided, between whose tines party tickers or the like can then be hung.

FIG. 9 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a drinking vessel 1 with a holder 40. In this drinking vessel, the holder 40 is formed by the handle part 3. In the lower part of the handle part 3 there is an upwardly open cavity 44 which can be filled with water. Above this cavity 44 is a conical, upwardly opening part 40 of the handle part 3. The part 45 is provided with bores 46 which are connected to the cavity 44 in the lower part of the handle part 3.

Flowers can be inserted through the bores 46, for example, so that their stems extend into the cavity 44 filled with water.

The holder 40 can also be used for springs or other plug-in decorations, in which case the cavity 44 does not need to be filled with water.

FIG. 10 shows a further exemplary embodiment which essentially corresponds to that from FIG. 1. The handle part 3 and the stand 4 are shown in a partially broken sectional view. Inside the handle part 3 is hollow and filled with batteries. A light bulb 6 is arranged above the battery and shines into the receiving body 2. Arranged around the light bulb 6 is a three-stage switch 26 which is designed as a switching ring and has an outer diameter which corresponds approximately to the outer diameter of the handle part 3.

Provided in the stand 4 is a contact switch 28, which is pressed by means of a spring 27 in the raised position of the stand beyond the lower end of the stand 4 and is connected to the three-stage switch 26. Except for the special features described, the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 10 corresponds to that of FIG. 1.

The three-stage switch 26 has 3 switch positions. In the first switch position, the light bulb 6 is switched off. In a second switching position, the three-stage switch 26 is closed and connected in series with the contact switch 28. This means that the contact switch 28 is closed by placing the vessel 1 on a base, as a result of which the light bulb 6 is supplied with current and lights up. When the vessel is raised, the contact switch 28 opens so that the power supply is interrupted.

In the third switching stage of the three-stage switch 26, the contact switch 28 is short-circuited, so that the power supply for the light bulb is established regardless of the switching state of the contact switch 28. The bulb lights up continuously.

It is also possible to design the switching ring 26, which is designed as a three-stage switch, as a two-stage switch only with the switching positions on and off. The three-stage switch 26 can also be arranged on the stand.

FIG. 11 shows a further exemplary embodiment with a stirring rod 22 similar to that from FIG. 4.

In contrast to that, the rod 22 is so hollow that there is space for two batteries 6 to power the light bulb.

The end 36 of the stirring rod 22 facing away from the receptacle is designed in the form of a lemon slice. In FIG. 11 the opposite end is shown removed. It can be seen that the lemon slice-shaped end 36 can simply be plugged onto the tubular bar 22.

Figure 12 shows a further embodiment of a stir bar 22, which is also hollow inside. A battery 47 is accommodated in the end 36 facing away from the receptacle, which is also hollow cylindrical. In the adjoining elongated cavity of the stirring rod 22 itself, a plurality of light-emitting diodes 48 connected to one another and to the battery 47 are attached. The opposite end 36 can also be designed to be simply pluggable, as in the exemplary embodiment shown in FIG. 11, so that the contact for the power supply for the light-emitting diodes 48 only comes about when the end 36 is plugged on.

As can clearly be seen from FIG. 12, the lower end of the stirring rod 22, which normally faces the receptacle 2 of a vessel 1, is provided with a paddle 49 in the form of a golf iron.

FIG. 13 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a drinking vessel with a stirring rod 22. This stirring rod 22 is also hollow on the inside, with batteries 47 again being accommodated in the interior. The end facing away from the receiving body 2 now contains the light bulb 6. The opposite end 36 is in turn releasably attached to the actual stirring rod 22, so that the electrical contact only comes about by joining the end 36 and the stirring rod 22. As already in the case of the exemplary embodiments described above, the end 36 facing away from this is also designed as a lemon slice.

FIG. 14 shows another stirring rod 22 which is hollow on the inside, likewise with a removable and detachably fastened end 36. The stirring rod has a light rod 15 which can be inserted loosely in its inner cavity. The light stick 15 can consist of a pressed fluorescent material or a glass or plastic tube filled with fluorescent liquid. Such glow sticks are also conceivable, in which there are initially two separate chemical liquids which, when brought together, initiate a chemical reaction and thereby imitate light.

FIG. 15 shows a vessel 1 with a luminous element in the form of a lamp plugged onto the edge of the receiving body 2 a lemon slice 19, similar to that in FIG. 4. This slice 19 is divided into various radial segments 20 and is hollow inside, a button cell being accommodated in the center of the slice, while one or more light-emitting diodes 48 are accommodated in each of the radial segments 20. The disk-shaped light source 19 is placed on the edge of the receiving body 2 by means of a cut-out radial segment 20. In the area of the edges of the cut-out radial segment 20 there is a pressure switch 21 which is actuated when the disk 19 is placed on the edge of a vessel 1, as a result of which the LEDs 48 are supplied with the current from the button cell 51 and light up.

FIG. 16 shows an exemplary embodiment of the invention in which a stirring rod 22 is provided with a circular light source 19. This is the same circular disk as in the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 15. To attach the illuminated lemon slice 19 to the end 36 of the stirring rod 22 facing away from the receiving body 2, a coupling zone 52 is arranged at the end 36 facing away from the cut-out radial segment 20 Lemon slice 19 is adapted. In addition, the coupling zone 52 has a locking recess 53, in which the pressure switch 21 can engage like a resilient locking projection.

In this way, the luminous lemon slice 19 can be clipped onto a stir bar 22 as well as on the edge of a drinking vessel without any changes.

FIG. 17 shows the same stirring rod 22 as in FIG. 16, but now a heart-shaped one at the coupling zone 52 Light source 54 is clipped on. Except for the outer shape, the heart-shaped light source is designed in exactly the same way as the lemon slice 19.

Another embodiment of the invention is shown in Figure 18. There, the light source is designed as a hollow body 55 that can be inserted and closed in the receiving body 2. The hollow body shown in FIG. 18 is a replica ice cube. However, it is also possible that the hollow body 55 can be designed in the form of a ball or a fruit.

FIG. 19 shows a cross section through a hollow body 55, as can be inserted, for example, in the vessel from FIG. 18. The hollow body 55 shown in FIG. 19 consists of an upper half 56 and a lower half 57, which are detachably connected to one another. A luminous element 58 is accommodated in the interior of the hollow body 55, which can consist of the same materials as the previously mentioned luminous rod 50.

FIG. 20 shows in a further embodiment a hollow body 55 in which a button cell 51 is inserted, to which a plurality of light-emitting diodes 48 connected to one another are connected.

Another embodiment of a hollow body 55 is shown in FIG. A light bulb 6 connected to a battery 47 via a switch is arranged in the interior of the hollow body 55. More specifically, the light bulb 6 is inserted into a reflector 7.

All hollow bodies 55 have in common that the upper and the lower half each made of transparent Plastic material can be formed. However, it is also possible that one of the two halves 56 or 57 can be made of opaque material.

FIG. 22 shows a further exemplary embodiment of the present invention. It is a vessel 1, in which the stand 4 is detachably attached directly to the receiving body 2. The receiving body 2 and the stand 4 also take over the function of the handle part 3. Both the receiving body 2 and the stand 4 are hollow-cylindrical, their diameters being essentially identical.

The stand 4 is designed as a dispenser, wherein it has a base 59 with a dispenser opening 60 arranged eccentrically to the cylinder axis. The bottom 59 is inclined to the dispenser opening.

A further base 61 is provided below the base 59 and can be rotated relative to the base 59. The bottom 61 also has an opening 62 which is aligned with the dispenser opening 60 in a rotational position. By rotating the base 61 relative to the base 59, opening and closing of the dispenser opening and thus removal of nuts or the like located in the stand 4 is possible.

The releasable attachment of the stand 4 to the receiving body 3 is effected in the embodiment shown in FIG. 22 by providing a radial circumferential groove 63 and 64 on the outer circumferential surface of the facing areas of the exception body 2 and the stand 4. A common clamping ring 65 engages in the two radial grooves 63 and 64. The clamping ring 65 has a cross section an approximately C-shaped profile, the vertical web 66 bridging the joint between the receiving body and the stand 4, while the two horizontal legs 67 and 68 each engage in one of the radial circumferential grooves 63 and 64.

As can also be seen from FIG. 22, the bottom of the receiving body 2 has a curvature 12, as in the vessel shown in FIG. 1.

FIG. 23 shows a further exemplary embodiment, in which, in a manner similar to the exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 22, the stand 4 is designed as a hollow cylinder and is fastened to the receiving body 2 by means of a clamping ring 65.

In FIG. 23, the vessel 1 is drawn in an exploded view with the stand 4 removed. The stand 4, which is designed as a cavity, has a closed bottom 61. A lighting insert 69 can be inserted into the stand 4. The lighting insert 69 essentially consists of a light bulb 6 inserted in a reflector 7 and a battery 47 connected to it. The lighting insert 69 itself is also designed as an approximately cylindrical container, its bottom 70 being removable for replacing the batteries or the light bulb. On its upper side, the lighting insert 69 has a curvature 71 which is adapted to the curvature 12 of the receiving body 2. As is not shown in detail here, the lighting insert 69 also has a switch.

To assemble the vessel 1 shown in FIG. 23, the lighting insert 69 is first inserted into the hollow cylindrical stand 4. Then the hollow cylindrical stand 4 pressed from below against the receiving body 2 until the horizontal leg 68 of the clamping ring 65 snaps into the radial circumferential groove 64 of the stand 4. The curvature 71 adapts to the curvature 12 so that the light emitted by the light bulb 6 in connection with the reflector 7 illuminates a drink located in the receiving body.

FIG. 24 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a vessel of a similar construction to that of FIG. 23, but no special insert is used in the stand 4, but rather a chain of lights consisting of light-emitting diodes 48, which is connected to a battery 47 via a flashing relay 72 is.

The assembly of the vessel 1 is carried out in the same way as the assembly of the vessel according to FIG. 23.

FIG. 25 shows a further exemplary embodiment of the present invention. Here too the stand 4 is designed as a hollow cylindrical container. Instead of a separate clamping ring, however, a clamping ring is integrally connected to the stand 4 here. This means that the upper edge of the stand 4 has a radially inwardly directed, circumferential snap nose 73, which is latched into the radial circumferential groove 63 of the receiving body. The stand 4 is preferably made of a plastic in this embodiment.

It is also conceivable to attach a snap lug 73 to the lower edge of the receiving body, which would then engage in the radial circumferential groove 64 of the stand.

FIGS. 26 and 27 show a further exemplary embodiment of the present invention shown.

FIG. 26 shows a vessel in a partially sectioned view, similar to that in the figures described above, but in which the stand 4 is divided into an upper and a lower half 74 and 75 by a horizontal parting line. The upper half 74 consists practically only of a circumferential ring, which has the radial circumferential groove 64 for engaging the horizontal leg 68 of the clamping ring 65, and a bottom 76.

The lower half 75 is pivotable about a vertical axis 77 with respect to the upper half 74. The axis 77, which is fastened to the lower half 75, projects through an opening through the bottom 76 of the upper half 74 and is held in the bottom 76 by a stop 78. More precisely, the lower half 75 of the stand 74 is connected to the upper half 74 of the stand 4 via the axis 77. The axis 77 is arranged eccentrically to the cylinder axis of the vessel 1. This means that the lower half 75 of the stand 74 can be pivoted out of the projection of the receiving body 2 by pivoting about the axis 77 (cf. FIG. 27).

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 26 and 27, the lower half 75 is designed as an ashtray. For this purpose, the lower half has on its outer circumference storage compartments 79 for cigarettes.

However, it is also conceivable to accommodate nuts or other nibbles in the lower half with appropriate spatial layout.

Finally, FIG. 28 shows a last exemplary embodiment of the present invention, in which the stand 4 is designed as a radio, in such a way that the upper edge of the housing of the radio receiver 80 has a radial circumferential groove 64 into which the clamping ring 65 can engage for the purpose of fastening the radio receiver 80 to the receiving body 2.

As can further be seen from FIG. 28, a wheel-shaped volume control 81 is provided on the right-hand side of the radio receiver.

All of the exemplary embodiments shown here can be combined with one another or used independently. Such measures are at the discretion of the person skilled in the art, so that protection is also claimed for this. It is obvious, for example, that the detachable design of the receiving body and the grip part is also possible if no light source is accommodated in the grip part.

It is also possible to accommodate a battery-operated lamp, for example, in a transparent bottle stopper, which has a lens protruding into the bottle neck, which bundles the light generated by the lamp and thus illuminates the contents of the bottle.
