  • the band can be plugged in a known manner on the cup, the cup are inserted into a prepared band and / or the band are wrapped around the cup, with the desired insulating properties set without further processing of the band.
  • the upper edge of the upper of the support areas can at least indirectly pass into a sealing flange radially widening the upper cup rim and lying approximately in a radial plane.
  • the insulating region may extend without further profiling at least in sections along a further, 'with respect to the common truncated cone surface radially offset inwardly truncated cone surface.
  • the insulating region has at least one stabilization segment forming a radial extension and preferably extending to the common truncated cone lateral surface. It has been found that the heat transfer occurring in the region of the stabilizing segment can be accepted by the heated foodstuff received in the container on a band which possibly revolves around the plastic cup, if the band bears only punctiformly or linearly on the stabilizing segment.
  • a particularly reliable stabilization results when two, three or more in the circumferential direction preferably equidistant juxtaposed stabilizing webs are provided.
  • At least one stabilizing segment is in the form of a knob-shaped bulge, which suitably bears tangentially on the common truncated cone surface, so that a possibly . existing banderole only punctiform rests on the knob-shaped bulge.
  • a stabilizing segment in the form of the container axis at least partially encircling, suitably extending in a radial plane ring be executed.
  • Corresponding rings give an optionally to be provided band an additional support surface, so that the cup is easier to reach.
  • the ring is designed so that it rests only linearly on the band, so that the heat transfer in the region of the ring is small, with an insulating cavity is formed between the ring and support area or between the possibly existing multiple rings.
  • band and plastic cup are materially interconnected.
  • standard adhesives hotmelt, dispersion, etc.
  • hotmelt, dispersion, etc. can be used, which can also be used for bonding the band strips together.

  • the grammage is 350 g / m 2 or less, esp. 300 g / m 2 or less, more preferably 270 g / m 2 or less.
  • the stability of containers according to the invention can be further increased while avoiding excessive use of plastic material, if the bottom of the cup is backed by a bottom of paper or paperboard having a similar grammage as the material used to make the band.
  • an outer edge of the jacket bottom can be bent downwards to form a brim underframe of a flanged bottom edge of the band.
  • the band 50 and / or the jacket bottom 60 is penetrated by at least one opening.
  • the opening with respect to the cup bottom 12 or the insulating region 26 is arranged so that a passage to the limited by the insulating region 26 and the band 50 insulating cavity and / or the limited by the cup base 12 and the bottom of the shell 60 insulating cavity is provided.
  • the opening can also be slit-shaped. There may also be two or more corresponding openings be.
  • the at least one opening makes it possible to transport heated air from the insulating cavity and to obtain air circulation. By means of this circulation, a further reduction of the heat transfer from the plastic cup 10 to the band 50 is possible.
