Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen durch einen Deckel verschließbaren Trinkbecher, wobei der Deckel auf den Trinkbecher aufschraubbar ist, und wobei der Trinkbecher einen Griff besitzt, und wobei der Deckel eine Trinktülle aufweist.The invention relates to a closable by a lid cup, wherein the lid is screwed onto the cup, and wherein the cup has a handle, and wherein the lid has a drinking spout.
Ein Trinkbecher der eingangs genannten Art ist bekannt; ein solcher Trinkbecher wird häufig zur Versorgung älterer Menschen eingesetzt, die nicht oder kaum noch in der Lage sind, aus üblichen Bechern oder Tassen ein Getränk zu sich zu nehmen. Durch eine Trinktülle, ähnlich einer Schnabeltasse, wird das Einnehmen flüssiger Nahrung insofern erleichtert. Diese Becher werden allerdings von den Personen, wie bereits ausgeführt, meist älteren Personen, noch gehalten. Neben Rechtshändern gibt es auch eine ganze Anzahl von Menschen, die Linkshänder sind.A drinking cup of the type mentioned is known; Such a drinking cup is often used to care for older people who are not or barely able to take a drink from usual cups or cups. Through a drinking spout, similar to a sippy cup, the intake of liquid food is facilitated. However, these cups are still held by the persons, as already stated, mostly elderly persons. In addition to right-handers, there are also a number of people who are left-handed.
Um nun einen solchen Trinkbecher sowohl für Rechts- als auch für Linkshänder benutzbar zu machen, wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, dass die Gewindeanordnung des Bechers zwei um ca. 180° versetzt zueinander angeordnete Gewindeansätze aufweist, wobei die Anordnung der Gewindeansätze am Gewinde des Bechers derart ist, dass nach Drehung des Deckels sich die Trinktülle etwa im Winkel von 90° zum Griff befindet. Hieraus wird deutlich, dass der Deckel in zweierlei Stellung auf den Trinkbecher aufgesetzt und auf das Gewinde des Trinkbechers aufgeschraubt werden kann. In einer Stellung des Deckels befindet sich nach der Drehung der Deckel derart auf dem Trinkbecher, dass in Bezug auf den Griff der Trinkbecher für Rechtshänder geeignet ist, bei einer zweiten Stellung des Deckels am Gewinde des Trinkbechers hingegen befindet sich nach Drehung des Deckels der Griff im Verhältnis zur Trinktülle in einer Stellung, die den Becher für Linkshänder benutzbar macht.In order to make such a drinking cup usable for both right-handed and left-handed people, it is proposed according to the invention that the thread arrangement of the cup has two threaded lugs offset by approximately 180 °, the arrangement of the thread lugs on the thread of the cup being such that after rotation of the lid, the drinking spout is approximately at an angle of 90 ° to the handle. From this it is clear that the lid can be placed in two different positions on the drinking cup and screwed onto the thread of the drinking cup. In one position of the lid is located after the rotation of the lid on the drinking cup that with respect to the handle of the cup is suitable for right-handed, with a second position of the lid on the thread of the drinking cup, however, is located after rotation of the lid, the handle in Relationship to drinking spout in a position that makes the cup usable for left-handers.
Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen.Further advantageous features of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims.
So ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass der Deckel um einen Winkel von etwa 90° bis zum Anschlag drehbar ist, was bedeutet, dass der Deckel schnell auf den Becher aufdrehbar ist.Thus, it is provided in particular that the cover is rotatable by an angle of about 90 ° to the stop, which means that the lid is quickly aufdrehbar on the cup.
Nach einem weiteren vorteilhaften Merkmal ist die Trinktülle an dem Deckel abklappbar angeordnet. Die Trinktülle, die vorzugsweise als Röhrchen ausgebildet ist, steht über die Oberseite des Deckel im aufgeklappten Zustand über. Bei abgeklappter Trinktülle wird verhindert, dass Verschmutzungen in das Innere des Trinkbechers gelangen können.According to a further advantageous feature, the drinking spout is arranged hinged to the lid. The drinking spout, which is preferably designed as a tube, projects beyond the top of the lid in the unfolded state. When the drinking spout is folded down, it is prevented that soiling can reach the inside of the drinking cup.
In diesem Zusammenhang ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass die Trinktülle im eingeklappten Zustand in einer Vertiefung im Deckel einliegt. Vorteilhaft ist ferner hin, wenn im eingeklappten Zustand der Trinktülle durch die Trinktülle die Öffnung im Deckel verschließbar ist, weil in einem solchen Fall, selbst dann, wenn der Behälter versehentlich umgeworfen werden sollte, die Flüssigkeit im Behälter im Becher nicht austreten kann. In diesem Zusammenhang ist insbesondere ein noppenartiger Vorsprung an der Tülle vorgesehen, durch den die Öffnung im Deckel abgedichtet wird.In this context, it is particularly provided that the drinking spout rests in the folded state in a recess in the lid. It is also advantageous if in the folded state of the drinking spout through the drinking spout, the opening in the lid is closed, because in such a case, even if the container should be accidentally overturned, the liquid in the container in the cup can not escape. In this context, in particular a knob-like projection on the spout is provided, through which the opening in the lid is sealed.
Im Trinkzustand hingegen, d. h. im aufgeklappten Zustand der Tülle, weist die Tülle in ihrer Längsachse einen Ansatz mit einer Bohrung auf, wobei der Ansatz zum flüssigkeitsdichten Zustand mit der Öffnung im Deckel in Wirkzusammenhang bringbar ist. Das bedeutet, dass hierdurch sichergestellt ist, dass während des Trinkvorganges im Übergang von der Öffnung im Deckel zu der Trinktülle keine Flüssigkeit austreten kann.In drinking, on the other hand, d. H. in the unfolded state of the spout, the spout has in its longitudinal axis an approach with a bore, wherein the approach to the liquid-tight state with the opening in the lid in operative connection can be brought. This means that this ensures that no liquid can escape during the drinking process in the transition from the opening in the lid to the drinking spout.
Um Getränke in dem Becher warm oder auch kalt zu halten, ist der Becher vorteilhaft doppelwandig ausgebildet. Der Becher kann ebenfalls zwei einander gegenüberliegende Griffe aufweisen, da - wie sich herausgestellt hat - ältere Personen häufig den Becher eher mit zwei Händen greifen.To keep drinks in the cup warm or cold, the cup is advantageously double-walled. The cup may also have two opposing handles, as it has been found that elderly persons often grasp the cup with two hands.
