Benefits of technology

The present invention is a holding device for a straw that prevents the straw from dropping into a container and makes it easier for the user to use. The holding device is designed to push or pull the straw into or out of the container, without the user's fingers touching the straw or the mouth. This prevents contamination and achieves a sanitary purpose. The straw can be received in the container when not in use, without having to throw it away. The holding device presents a helical suspension state, allowing it to hold straws of different lengths. The elastic stop pieces can expand and contract elastically to fit straws of different diameters. These technical effects make the holding device more convenient, sanitary, and adaptable to different needs.

Problems solved by technology

However, when the straw is loosened from the user's fingers, the straw easily drops into the container body and is out of reach of the user, thereby causing inconvenience to the user when drinking the container.
In addition, the user's fingers directly touch the straw during operation, thereby easily causing a sanitary problem.

Abstract

A holding device includes a fixing plate, a connecting member connected with the fixing plate, and a positioning member connected with the connecting member. The fixing plate is provided with a through hole which has an end provided with a groove which has a helical shape. A tear line is formed between the groove and the fixing plate. The connecting member is defined by the groove of the fixing plate. The positioning member is mounted on the bottom of the connecting member and is provided with a retaining hole for positioning a straw. The holding device is combined with a cap of a container. Thus, the straw is held by the positioning member of the holding device which is limited by the cap, so that the straw will not drop into the container body.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a holding device and, more particularly, to a holding device for holding a straw to prevent the straw from dropping.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]A container comprises includes a container body, a mouth formed on the top of the container body, and a cap mounted on the mouth. After the cap is removed from the mouth, the user can insert a straw from the mouth into the container body to facilitate the user drinking the beverage in the container body. However, when the straw is loosened from the user's fingers, the straw easily drops into the container body and is out of reach of the user, thereby causing inconvenience to the user when drinking the container. In addition, the user's fingers directly touch the straw during operation, thereby easily causing a sanitary problem.BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0005]The primary objective of the present invention is to provide a holdi...
