.sig'nors to Federal Tool Corporation, Chicago, Ill., :1 corporation-of Illinois Filed May "6, 1 957, Ser. No. 657,204 b Claims. (Cl. 220-94) This invention relates to drinking cups and other like vessels, and more particularly to an improved drinking cup that is very inexpensive to produce and which, if desired, may be discarded after use.
One of the important objects of the present invention is to provide .a drinking cup of the above character that may be closely nested, one within another, during shipment or storage, but which is provided with a handle structure which, when 'in use, has ashape, appearance and disposition on the outside of the cup substantially like the rigid handle of a conventional'coifee cup. In accordance with the broad object just stated, it is a further object of the present invention to provide adrinking cup having ahandle thereon which occupies a sub stantially fiat, horizontal position when thelcup .is stored or shipped in a nested condition with respect to other like cups, thereby permitting very close nesting .of the cups so as to require a minimum of space, the horizontally disposed handle structures of the superimposed cups beingadapted to lie directly upon each other. Another object of the invention is toprovide a cup of the .kind just stated wherein ear-like, parts of thehorizontallydisposed handle structure may be folded downwardly and latched in a downwardly directed position when the cup is about to be used, thereby providing an erected handle structure having substantially the same general shape and feel as thefrig-id .handleiofa conventional coffee cup. Another object of the invention is to provide a cup of .the aforesaid character which may be easily and inexpensively formed as a single piece, and which maybe formed of a single sheet of thermo-fplastic material such, for example, 'as polystyrene. 7
These and other objects and advantages'of 'the present invention will be apparent from the following description of a preferred embodiment thereof, taken with the accompanying drawings, wherein: a I
Fig. 1 is a plan view of a drinking cup or other "bowllike vessel constructed in accordance with the present invention, the ears or ear-like parts of the handle portion of the cup being shown in the generally horizontalposit'ion they occupy during .shipment or storage prior to'use ofthe cup; V Fig. .2 is an enlarged elevational view, with certain portions broken away, of .the cup taken from the right hand side of Fig. 11; 1
Fig. 3 is afragmentary sectionalview, on an'enlarged scale, taken substantially along the line 13- -3 in FigL l; Fig. 4 is a plan view of the cup showing'the condition when the ears of the handle portion ofithe'cuphavebeen folded downwardly to their usable position; j
Fig. 5 is an enlarged elevational View of the handle portion of the cup, with the ears thereof in their downwardly folded position;
Fig. 6 is an enlarged fragmentary cross-section taken through the ears substantially along the lines 6-6 in Fig. 5; and
Fig. 7 is an elevational'view of the cup taken from the right hand side of Fig. 5. v
, As illustrated, the'cup comprisesabowl-shaped'vessel L10 having-a circular bottom 11 and-ariircularyupwafdly ice 2 extending and outwardly liared wall '12 that lterminates; at its upper edge in -;an outwardlyextending lip 13/ will later be explained, the entire cup is preferably formed'from a single sheet of relatively thin thermoplastic material, thereby permitting formation of the cup to be inexpensively accomplished by any suitable and I well known 'fluid pressure or vacuum forming process.
outwardly or radially projecting web-like handle element 14 is integrally formed on the lip 13 of the cup on one sidethereof. The central portion of this web-like handle element, in the present instance, has an up wardly embossed rib 15 formed therein, and the inner end. of the rib 15 is joined or'merges with the upper end of an'inwardly emb'o'ss'edrib 16 that is formed in thewall 12 of the bowl. The rib 516 extends downwardlyfrom the 'jrib '15 toward thebottom 11 of the 'bowl,,it being observed that thesides 16d of the lib 16-are spaced apart and "form a groove (designated by thenunieral "17 for future reference) infthe outer surface'of the wall 12 of the bowl below thehandleelement'14.
'A'pairof laterally ' jprojectingea'rs 18 and 19 are in-.
I tegrally formed on the opposite side edges 'of the handle I facing the lip element 14 along respective lines of fo1d'20 and 21'. The central portion of each ear is downwardly embossed, as at 22*and'23, to jprovide'increased rigidity for the ears, and the inner edges of the ears adjacent the outer edge-of-the'lip 13'follow'the curvature of the lip but are spaced outwardlydherefrom. The outer edges of the ears may be pleasingly curved, 'as illustrated in the drawings', and the outer extremity of each car, on the .side 13, is provided with a .latching edge 24 (Fig; "1) which 'will again be referredto. The downwardly embossed portion 22 of the car 18 is preferably provided with"an"upwarclly embossed dimple 25, and the corresponding downwardly embossed portion 23 of the ear 19 is provided with a downwardly embossed dimple 25, as perhaps best seen-in Figs. '1 and2. 1
The cups, in the 'form just 'de'scribed'may be quickly and inexpensively formed in great numbers either "by injection mold processes or by fluid pressure or vacuum molding processes. When vacuum molding isused in the production of the cups, a plurality of cups maybe vacuum formed from a single sheet of thin, inexpensive, relatively flexible thermoplastic material, such as high impact type polystyrene, it being understood that the cups, in the condition thereof shown in Figs. 1 to 3, will be "cut or stamped out of the sheet after the formation of the cups has been completed. it will also be apparent that'the cups, in this condition, may conveniently be closely stacked or nested, one within the other, in substantially unlimited numbers since the bowls and the handle-portions'o'fthecups will be identical and may be received snugly one within the other. Shipment and storage of stacks- "of the closely nested c'ups therefore the condition thereof illustrated inFigs. -1 to 3,'is held in the hand and the ears 18 and :"19 thereoflare gripped between the fingersof one handfand folded downwardly about their respective lines of ffold 20 and 21 in the direct-ion of'the arrows shown ',in Fig. 2. During this folding movement *of the ears 1'8 and 19, the latching edges 24. thereof are moved, toward the wall 12 .Of jth cup due to the fact that, "in the present instance, the lines of fold 2i) andZl diverge toward the bowl. As the ears I-Band 19 approach their ultimate downwardly directed positions, their latching edges 24 engage'the wall 12 of the bowl and then snap into the groove 17 provided in the outer surface of the bowl by the inwardly embossed rib 16. The snapping entry 'ofthe latching edges 24 of the ears rsand 19mm the groove 17 retains the ears iii x .Ra'tented May24, 1960 i their downwardly folded positions, in which condition the ears, in conjunction with the handle element 14, provide an upstanding handle that looks much like a conventional cuphandle and is usable for lifting the cup in the same manner as the rigid handle of an ordinary coifee cup. At the time the latching edges 24 of the ears are received by the groove 17, the lower or under surfaces of the downwardly embossed portions 22 and 23 of the cars come into contact with each other, as shown in Fig. 7. At the same time, the dimple 26 enters the recessed side of the dimple 25, thereby later preventing any tendency for sliding movement between the embossed portions 22 and 23 of the ears 18 and 19 during use of the cup.
Due to the fact that the present cup may be so inexpensively produced of light weight, thin plastic material, it may be thrown away after use.' However, if it is desired to reuse the cup, the cars 18 and 19 or the wall of the cup may be flexed slightly to disengage the cars from the groove 17, whereupon the ears may be folded upwardly to their original positions, illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2. The cups may'then be restacked or renested, one with another, and stored away for future use, the horizontally positioned ears 18 and 19 of the cups overlying each other and thus permitting close nesting or stacking.
When the present cup is formed of very thin and relatively flexible plastic material, as described above, the ribs 15 and 16 serve materially to reinforce or rigidify the handle portion of the cup and the area of the bowl adjacent the handle. In some instances it may be desirable to rigidify the bowl in a greater area than that effected by the rib 16, in which case additional ribs, such as the upwardly extending and diverging ribs 27 and 28 may be embossed or formed in the wall 12 of the bowl adjacent the rib 16.
The foregoing description of one embodiment of the invention has been given for clearness of understanding only and no unnecessary limitations should be understood to be intended thereby, for it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that numerous variations may be made in the cup within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
