Definitions
- the present invention relates to a molded pulp cup lid, and more particularly to the molded pulp cup lid capable of combining with a cup rim tightly to prevent the liquid contained in a cup from spilling out and facilitate user to carry, stack, or move takeout paper cups, and retard the flow of beverage.
- takeout paper cup is often called “single-use paper cup”, “single-use portable paper cup” or “disposable paper cup”.
- the conventional takeout paper cup is usually composed of a cup and a cup lid, and the cup is provided for containing liquid beverage, and the cup lid is covered onto the cup rim to prevent the liquid beverage contained in the cup from spilling out.
- the conventional cup lid used for the takeout paper cup is made of a plastic material such as PP, PS, PVC, etc. and manufactured by plastic injection molding, and such product is usually called a “plastic cup lid”.
- the conventional plastic cup lid has recycle and disposal issues which produce serious pollutions. Particularly, the quantity is huge, and thus it is very difficult for the recycle process and leads to serious damages to the environment. With today's high awareness of environmental protection, the use of a disposal plastic cup lid is totally contrary to the awareness of environmental protection.
- the conventional plastic cup lid is manufactured by the plastic injection molding and thus limited by the moving space required for the demolding, so that the plastic cup lid product cannot satisfy the requirement of covering the paper cup onto the cup rim tightly.
- the conventional plastic cup lid is formed by the plastic injection molding, so that the top of the cup lid and the drinking opening are arranged on the same plane, and when a user sets his/her mouths close to the drinking opening and tilts the cup for drinking the beverage, the whole of the liquid of the beverage contained in the cup rushes to the drinking opening, so that if the user tilts the cup with a too-large angle, the flow of the beverage will be too fast and may even spill out from the cup.
- the aforementioned structure of the conventional paper cup requires improvements.
- the present invention adopts the molded pulp cup lid manufactured by the pulp molding process to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional plastic cup lid.
- a primary objective of the present invention to provide a molded pulp cup lid capable of combining with a cup rim tightly to prevent liquid or beverage contained in a cup from spilling out, and allowing users to stacks several cups with one another to facilitate the carry of the cups.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide a molded pulp cup lid having a drinking opening formed on a high platform to prevent the beverage contained in the cup from having a too large flow when the cup is tilted for drinking.
- the present invention is particularly to provide a molded pulp cup lid, comprising a main surrounding wall surrounded into a circle, a rear arc edge upwardly erected from a rear side of the main surrounding wall, and both sides of the rear arc edge extending forward and surrounding from both sides to form a horizontal side platform, and the front of the side platform being inclined and extended to a section of an oblique protective slope, and the fronts of the oblique protective slopes on both sides being combined into a high platform, and the junction of an inner edge of the high platform and the inner edges of the oblique protective slopes on both sides being tangentially drooped in an arc shape to form an inner protective wall; and the rear arc edge, side platform, oblique protective slope and high platform being surrounded into a circle, and a cup top being formed at the middle and having a height lower than the cup top after being offset, and the cup top having a small venting hole formed thereon; and a drinking
- the easy-to-tear edge is cut into a thickness smaller than half of its original thickness.

- FIG. 10 is a schematic view of covering a molded pulp cup lid onto a cup and stacking them together vertically in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.
- the molded pulp cup lid 1 is manufactured by molding, suction, shaping, and hot press molding, and the molded pulp cup lid 1 comprises a main surrounding wall 10 surrounded into a circle, and a rear arc edge 11 upwardly erected from a rear side of the main surrounding wall 10 , and the rear arc edge 11 extends forwardly and surrounds from both sides for approximately half of a circle to gradually form a horizontal side platform 12 , and an outer edge and an inner edge of the rear arc edge 11 are curved lines, and the inner edge has a curvature greater than that of the outer edge (or the inner edge is more curved than the outer edge), and then the front of the side platform 12 is inclined upwardly and extended to a section of an oblique protective slope 13 , and both of the outer edge and inner edge of the oblique protective slope 13 are curved lines, and the inner edge has a curvature greater than that of the outer edge (
- the widths arranged in an ascending order are the width of the rear arc edge 11 (but it is wider when extending sideway), the width of the side platform 12 (which is greater than the width of the rear arc edge 11 ), the width of the oblique protective slope 13 9 (which is greater than the width of the side platform 12 ), and finally the width of the high platform 14 (since it is formed by extending both sides into one), so that the high platform 14 has the fourth largest width, and the inner edges of the rear arc edge 11 , the side platform 12 , the oblique protective slope 13 and the high platform 14 (wherein the inner edge of the high platform 14 is the tangential inner protective wall 141 ) are surrounded into a circle, and the plane situated on the plane of the middle of the circle has a height below the cup top 15 , and the depth of the cup top 15 at the rear arc edge 11 is preferably 2 mm, and a small venting hole 151 is formed on the cup top 15 and at a position with a distance from the rear arc edge
- the upper side of the high platform 14 is based on the arc outer edge, and a drinking opening 20 with a slight downward recession in the height-wise direction is formed at the central positon.
- a horizontal opening plate 21 is formed on a side of the drinking opening 20
- the inner edge of the opening plate 21 is the top edge of the inner protective wall 141 at where an arc easy folding edge 211 is formed
- a raised pusher 22 is formed at the central position of the opening plate 21 .
- the pusher 22 , the opening plate 21 and the high platform 14 are integrally formed as a whole, and the connecting edges of the opening plate 21 and the drinking opening 20 excluding the easy folding edge 211 are tapered thin easy-to-tear edge 23 .
- the aforementioned three connecting edges are cut to a thickness less than half of its original thickness to form the easy-to-tear edges 23 , and the top and bottom easy-to-tear edges 23 as shown in FIG. 5 must be cut to reach the easy folding edge 211 . Therefore, when the drinking opening 20 is not in use, the drinking opening 20 is not exposed, but completely covered by the opening plate 21 and the pusher 22 . In the meantime, when the drinking opening 20 is not in use, the easy-to-tear edges 23 are connected in a tapered thin manner.
- the cup top 15 has an accommodating cavity 24 downwardly and concavely formed thereon and at a position with a distance from the high platform 14 , and a hatchback raised blocking platform 25 formed at the rear of the accommodating cavity 24 , and the blocking platform 25 encircles the accommodating cavity 24 from both sides.
- the main surrounding wall 10 are bent downwardly and extended to form an arc covering edge 17 , and finally expanded into a ring-shaped lift plate 18 .
- An inwardly and slightly curved shape is defined from an end of the countertop 16 to an end of the covering edge 17
- an outwardly and slightly curved shape is defined from an end of the covering edge 17 to an end of the lift plate 18 .
- the molded pulp cup lid 1 is used with a cup 30 .
- a ring-shaped binding edge 31 is generally formed at a cup rim of a cup 30 , so that when the molded pulp cup lid 1 is covered onto the cup rim of the cup 30 (filled with a beverage), the molded pulp cup lid 1 is covered onto the binding edge 31 in correspondence with the covering edge 17 . Since the covering edge 17 has a minimum inner diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the binding edge 31 , therefore the covering edge 17 will be blocked by the binding edge 31 and cannot be passed through at the beginning.
- the whole “takeout paper cup” (including the cup 30 , the beverage contained in the cup, and the molded pulp cup lid 1 ) can be moved safely. If a hot drink is filled into the cup 30 , the pressure produced in the cup 30 can be released from the small venting hole 151 to prevent overpressure in the cup 30 .
- the molded pulp cup lid 1 is made of a mixture of paper pulp and/or plant fiber, and manufactured by molding, pulp suction, shaping, and hot press molding, so that the plastic cup lid preferably has a good deformation performance and elasticity within a force applying range.
- the covering edge 17 at the position of the minimum inner diameter of the molded pulp cup lid 1 will be expanded outwardly to cross the binding edge 31 , and the covering edge 17 will restore its original shape after the user releases his/her hands.
- the covering edge 17 can cross and cover the binding edge 31 .
- the takeout paper cup generally contains hot drink (such as freshly brewed coffee, etc.), so that the user must set his/her mouth onto the drinking opening 20 and tilts the cup in order to drink the beverage.
- the drinking opening 20 is formed on the high platform 14 , and the bottom of the high platform 14 is separated to provide a small space as shown in FIG. 9 , so that when the user sets his/her mouth to the drinking opening 20 and tilts the cup to drink the beverage, the beverage contained in the cup will flow into the small space under the high platform 14 , and the flow is limited to produce a buffering effect.
- the beverage can flow slowly and smoothly out from the drinking opening 20 without the risk of scaring the user or spilling the beverage on the user.
- the cup top 15 is not situated at the center of the molded pulp cup lid 1 but situated in an offset status, so that two “takeout paper cups” can be stacked with each other to facilitate their carry.
- this invention designs the bottom of the cup 30 has an outer diameter equal to the diameter of the cup top 15 , and the distance h between the bottom surface and the bottom edge of the cup 30 is slightly greater than the height of the blocking platform 25 , so that the bottom of a takeout paper cup can be put on the cup top 15 of another takeout paper cup, and the bottom of the upper takeout paper cup can be placed exactly into the cup top 15 of the lower takeout paper cup, and the space between the bottom edge and bottom surface of the upper takeout paper cup can be provided for allowing the blocking platform 25 of the takeout paper cup to stay. Therefore, the upper and lower takeout paper cups can be stacked with each other as shown in FIG. 10 .
- the upper takeout paper cup when the upper and lower takeout paper cups are stacked, the upper takeout paper cup is offset with respect to the lower takeout paper cup, so that the upper and lower takeout paper cups will be stacked in a way that one on the left and the other one on the right.
- the user hold the upper and lower takeout paper cups by both hands including a left hand and a right hand

Abstract
Disclosed is a molded pulp cup lid made of a material which is a mixture of paper pulp and/or plant fibers. The molded pulp cup lid is manufactured by a mold with pulp suction molding and hot pressing technologies, and has a binding edge capable of covering the cup securely, an offset cup top, and a drinking opening formed on a high platform to achieve the effects of preventing a liquid contained in the cup from spilling to the outside, facilitating users to carry or move the stacked takeout paper cups, and retarding the flow of the beverage at the drinking opening.
Description
- The present invention relates to a molded pulp cup lid, and more particularly to the molded pulp cup lid capable of combining with a cup rim tightly to prevent the liquid contained in a cup from spilling out and facilitate user to carry, stack, or move takeout paper cups, and retard the flow of beverage.
- Most people, particularly office workers, would buy a cup of coffee from a branded chained convenience store or a fast food restaurant to start a day's work almost every day. Without drinking coffee, one seems to be lacking in enthusiasm for work. If consumers do not bring their own cups for the takeout coffee, then convenience stores or fast food stands will use a “takeout paper cup” to help the consumers to contain the coffee and let the consumers carry the “takeout paper cup” and drink the coffee from the paper cup. Such “takeout paper cup” is often called “single-use paper cup”, “single-use portable paper cup” or “disposable paper cup”. The conventional takeout paper cup is usually composed of a cup and a cup lid, and the cup is provided for containing liquid beverage, and the cup lid is covered onto the cup rim to prevent the liquid beverage contained in the cup from spilling out.
- In general, the conventional cup lid used for the takeout paper cup is made of a plastic material such as PP, PS, PVC, etc. and manufactured by plastic injection molding, and such product is usually called a “plastic cup lid”. The conventional plastic cup lid has recycle and disposal issues which produce serious pollutions. Particularly, the quantity is huge, and thus it is very difficult for the recycle process and leads to serious damages to the environment. With today's high awareness of environmental protection, the use of a disposal plastic cup lid is totally contrary to the awareness of environmental protection. In addition, the conventional plastic cup lid is manufactured by the plastic injection molding and thus limited by the moving space required for the demolding, so that the plastic cup lid product cannot satisfy the requirement of covering the paper cup onto the cup rim tightly. After the paper cup is combined with the cup rim, they may be loosened easily and cause a leakage of the beverage, and users has the safety concern of the use. Further, the conventional plastic cup lid is formed by the plastic injection molding, so that the top of the cup lid and the drinking opening are arranged on the same plane, and when a user sets his/her mouths close to the drinking opening and tilts the cup for drinking the beverage, the whole of the liquid of the beverage contained in the cup rushes to the drinking opening, so that if the user tilts the cup with a too-large angle, the flow of the beverage will be too fast and may even spill out from the cup. Obviously, the aforementioned structure of the conventional paper cup requires improvements.
- At present, a mixture of paper pulp and/or plant fiber has been developed, and the mixture is processed by molding, grouting, and shaping as well as hot press molding to form a pulp molded product, but most of the products are made of isolation buffer materials, and no one ever thought that it would be molded into the molded pulp cup lid by using the pulp molded material. Unlike the conventional plastic cup lid, the present invention adopts the molded pulp cup lid manufactured by the pulp molding process to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional plastic cup lid.
- In view of the drawbacks of the conventional plastic cup lid, the inventor of the present invention based on years of experience in the related industry to conduct extensive research and experiment, and finally developed molded pulp cup lid to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional plastic cup lid.
- Therefore, it is a primary objective of the present invention to provide a molded pulp cup lid capable of combining with a cup rim tightly to prevent liquid or beverage contained in a cup from spilling out, and allowing users to stacks several cups with one another to facilitate the carry of the cups.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide a molded pulp cup lid having a drinking opening formed on a high platform to prevent the beverage contained in the cup from having a too large flow when the cup is tilted for drinking.
- To achieve the above-mentioned objective, the present invention is particularly to provide a molded pulp cup lid, comprising a main surrounding wall surrounded into a circle, a rear arc edge upwardly erected from a rear side of the main surrounding wall, and both sides of the rear arc edge extending forward and surrounding from both sides to form a horizontal side platform, and the front of the side platform being inclined and extended to a section of an oblique protective slope, and the fronts of the oblique protective slopes on both sides being combined into a high platform, and the junction of an inner edge of the high platform and the inner edges of the oblique protective slopes on both sides being tangentially drooped in an arc shape to form an inner protective wall; and the rear arc edge, side platform, oblique protective slope and high platform being surrounded into a circle, and a cup top being formed at the middle and having a height lower than the cup top after being offset, and the cup top having a small venting hole formed thereon; and a drinking opening being concavely formed in the height-wise direction at the center position of the high platform, and a horizontal opening plate being formed on a side of the drinking opening, and the inner edge of the drinking opening being the top edge of the inner protective wall to constitute an easy folding edge, and a pusher being formed and protruded from the central position of the opening plate, and the connecting edges of the opening plate and the drinking opening except the easy folding edge being tapered thin easy-to-tear edges, and the easy-to-tear edges reaching the easy folding edge; and an accommodating cavity being downwardly and concavely formed on the cup top and at a position with a distance from the high platform, and a hatchback raised blocking platform being formed at the rear of the accommodating cavity, and the blocking platform encircling the accommodating cavity from both sides; and the bottom of the main surrounding wall extending outwardly to a small distance to form a countertop and then bent downwardly and extended to inwardly in an arc shape to form a covering edge, and then expanded outwardly to form a lift plate.

- With reference to
FIGS. 1-4 for a moldedpulp cup lid 1 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the moldedpulp cup lid 1 is manufactured by molding, suction, shaping, and hot press molding, and the moldedpulp cup lid 1 comprises a main surroundingwall 10 surrounded into a circle, and arear arc edge 11 upwardly erected from a rear side of the main surroundingwall 10, and therear arc edge 11 extends forwardly and surrounds from both sides for approximately half of a circle to gradually form ahorizontal side platform 12, and an outer edge and an inner edge of therear arc edge 11 are curved lines, and the inner edge has a curvature greater than that of the outer edge (or the inner edge is more curved than the outer edge), and then the front of theside platform 12 is inclined upwardly and extended to a section of an obliqueprotective slope 13, and both of the outer edge and inner edge of the obliqueprotective slope 13 are curved lines, and the inner edge has a curvature greater than that of the outer edge (or the inner edge is more curved than the outer edge). Finally, the fronts of obliqueprotective slopes 13 on both sides are jointly combined with ahigh platform 14, and the junction of the inner edge of thehigh platform 14 and the inner edges of the obliqueprotective slopes 13 on both sides is tangentially drooped in an arc shape to form an innerprotective wall 141. Viewing each portion from above (as shown inFIG. 2 ), the widths arranged in an ascending order are the width of the rear arc edge 11 (but it is wider when extending sideway), the width of the side platform 12 (which is greater than the width of the rear arc edge 11), the width of the obliqueprotective slope 13 9 (which is greater than the width of the side platform 12), and finally the width of the high platform 14 (since it is formed by extending both sides into one), so that thehigh platform 14 has the fourth largest width, and the inner edges of therear arc edge 11, theside platform 12, the obliqueprotective slope 13 and the high platform 14 (wherein the inner edge of thehigh platform 14 is the tangential inner protective wall 141) are surrounded into a circle, and the plane situated on the plane of the middle of the circle has a height below thecup top 15, and the depth of thecup top 15 at therear arc edge 11 is preferably 2 mm, and asmall venting hole 151 is formed on thecup top 15 and at a position with a distance from therear arc edge 11, so that thecup top 15 is not situated at the center of the moldedpulp cup lid 1 but situated in a backwardly offset status as shown inFIGS. 1 and 2 . - The upper side of the
high platform 14 is based on the arc outer edge, and a drinking opening 20 with a slight downward recession in the height-wise direction is formed at the central positon. InFIG. 5 , ahorizontal opening plate 21 is formed on a side of the drinking opening 20, and the inner edge of theopening plate 21 is the top edge of the innerprotective wall 141 at where an arceasy folding edge 211 is formed, and a raisedpusher 22 is formed at the central position of theopening plate 21. During manufacture and molding, thepusher 22, the openingplate 21 and thehigh platform 14 are integrally formed as a whole, and the connecting edges of the openingplate 21 and thedrinking opening 20 excluding theeasy folding edge 211 are tapered thin easy-to-tear edge 23. In other words, the aforementioned three connecting edges are cut to a thickness less than half of its original thickness to form the easy-to-tear edges 23, and the top and bottom easy-to-tear edges 23 as shown inFIG. 5 must be cut to reach theeasy folding edge 211. Therefore, when thedrinking opening 20 is not in use, thedrinking opening 20 is not exposed, but completely covered by the openingplate 21 and thepusher 22. In the meantime, when thedrinking opening 20 is not in use, the easy-to-tear edges 23 are connected in a tapered thin manner. Thecup top 15 has anaccommodating cavity 24 downwardly and concavely formed thereon and at a position with a distance from thehigh platform 14, and a hatchback raised blockingplatform 25 formed at the rear of theaccommodating cavity 24, and the blockingplatform 25 encircles theaccommodating cavity 24 from both sides. - With reference to
FIG. 6 , after the bottom of the main surroundingwall 10 extends outwardly to a distance to form acountertop 16, the main surroundingwall 10 are bent downwardly and extended to form anarc covering edge 17, and finally expanded into a ring-shapedlift plate 18. An inwardly and slightly curved shape is defined from an end of thecountertop 16 to an end of the coveringedge 17, and an outwardly and slightly curved shape is defined from an end of the coveringedge 17 to an end of thelift plate 18. - During the use of the molded
pulp cup lid 1 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the moldedpulp cup lid 1 is used with acup 30. InFIGS. 7 and 8 , a ring-shaped bindingedge 31 is generally formed at a cup rim of acup 30, so that when the moldedpulp cup lid 1 is covered onto the cup rim of the cup 30 (filled with a beverage), the moldedpulp cup lid 1 is covered onto the bindingedge 31 in correspondence with the coveringedge 17. Since the coveringedge 17 has a minimum inner diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of thebinding edge 31, therefore the coveringedge 17 will be blocked by the bindingedge 31 and cannot be passed through at the beginning. Now, a user just needs to press the moldedpulp cup lid 1 into a substantially symmetrical part by hands, and the minimum inner diameter of the coveringedge 17 of the moldedpulp cup lid 1 will be expanded slightly to cross thebinding edge 31 after receiving the pressing force, so that pressing the moldedpulp cup lid 1 along the rim of thecup 30 will drive the coveringedge 17 to cross and cover thebinding edge 31 as shown inFIG. 7 , so as to achieve the effect of sealing and covering the moldedpulp cup lid 1 onto thecup 30 securely. Now, the whole “takeout paper cup” (including thecup 30, the beverage contained in the cup, and the molded pulp cup lid 1) can be moved safely. If a hot drink is filled into thecup 30, the pressure produced in thecup 30 can be released from thesmall venting hole 151 to prevent overpressure in thecup 30. - In an embodiment of the present invention, the molded
pulp cup lid 1 is made of a mixture of paper pulp and/or plant fiber, and manufactured by molding, pulp suction, shaping, and hot press molding, so that the plastic cup lid preferably has a good deformation performance and elasticity within a force applying range. When the user press the moldedpulp cup lid 1 into a symmetrical part by hands and applies a slight force to press the moldedpulp cup lid 1 downward, the coveringedge 17 at the position of the minimum inner diameter of the moldedpulp cup lid 1 will be expanded outwardly to cross thebinding edge 31, and the coveringedge 17 will restore its original shape after the user releases his/her hands. By pressing different positions of the moldedpulp cup lid 1, the coveringedge 17 can cross and cover thebinding edge 31. - In
FIG. 9 , when the user wants to drink the beverage contained in thecup 30, the user presses thepusher 22 protruded from the moldedpulp cup lid 1 by hands, and then applies a force to push thepusher 22 backward, and the easy-to-tear edge 23 coupled to the openingplate 21 and thedrinking opening 20 will be broken immediately, and torn all the way to theeasy folding edge 211, and thepusher 22 together with the openingplate 21 will be deflected and turned by using theeasy folding edge 211 as an axis of rotation. Now, thepusher 22 will touch the inner side of the blockingplatform 25 first, and thepusher 22 will push theaccommodating cavity 24 for an urgent stay when the pushing force is applied continuously. Therefore, thedrinking opening 20 is no longer blocked or covered by the openingplate 21 and thepusher 22, so that thedrinking opening 20 can be exposed and provided for the user to drink the beverage contained in thecup 30 through thedrinking opening 20. - The takeout paper cup generally contains hot drink (such as freshly brewed coffee, etc.), so that the user must set his/her mouth onto the
drinking opening 20 and tilts the cup in order to drink the beverage. In the structure of the moldedpulp cup lid 1 of the present invention, thedrinking opening 20 is formed on thehigh platform 14, and the bottom of thehigh platform 14 is separated to provide a small space as shown inFIG. 9 , so that when the user sets his/her mouth to thedrinking opening 20 and tilts the cup to drink the beverage, the beverage contained in the cup will flow into the small space under thehigh platform 14, and the flow is limited to produce a buffering effect. As a result, the beverage can flow slowly and smoothly out from thedrinking opening 20 without the risk of scaring the user or spilling the beverage on the user. - With reference to
FIGS. 1, 2 and 8 for a moldedpulp cup lid 1 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, thecup top 15 is not situated at the center of the moldedpulp cup lid 1 but situated in an offset status, so that two “takeout paper cups” can be stacked with each other to facilitate their carry. InFIG. 10 , this invention designs the bottom of thecup 30 has an outer diameter equal to the diameter of thecup top 15, and the distance h between the bottom surface and the bottom edge of thecup 30 is slightly greater than the height of the blockingplatform 25, so that the bottom of a takeout paper cup can be put on thecup top 15 of another takeout paper cup, and the bottom of the upper takeout paper cup can be placed exactly into thecup top 15 of the lower takeout paper cup, and the space between the bottom edge and bottom surface of the upper takeout paper cup can be provided for allowing the blockingplatform 25 of the takeout paper cup to stay. Therefore, the upper and lower takeout paper cups can be stacked with each other as shown inFIG. 10 . - In an embodiment of the present invention, when the upper and lower takeout paper cups are stacked, the upper takeout paper cup is offset with respect to the lower takeout paper cup, so that the upper and lower takeout paper cups will be stacked in a way that one on the left and the other one on the right. When the user hold the upper and lower takeout paper cups by both hands (including a left hand and a right hand), the user's palm can touch the
cup 30 closer to provide a better stability to facilitate the carry of thecup 30. - The main idea of the present invention is to use a mixture of paper pulp and/or plant fiber to produce molded
pulp cup lid 1 by the manufacturing processes including molding, pulp suction, shaping, and hot press molding. This invention is characterized in that the moldedpulp cup lid 1 comprises the coveringedge 17 capable of covering the bindingedge 31 of thecup 30, thecup top 15 with an offset position, and thedrinking opening 20 formed on thehigh platform 14 and has the effects of preventing the beverage (or liquid) contained in thecup 30 from spilling out, facilitating the carry of thecups 30 by stacking them on top of one another, and retarding the flow of the beverage flowing out from thedrinking opening 20. - In summation of the description above, the present invention complies with the patent application requirements, and is duly submitted to the Patent and Trademark Office for review and granting of commensurate patent rights.
