When the patient needs to pinch his nose to reduce the nausea or discomfort caused by the taste of the medicine when taking the medicine, the patient only needs to hold the cup body 1 with his palm, and then use the fingers of the hand other than the thumb to pinch the pinching block 41. At this time, the mouth is placed at the drinking mouth position at the top of the cup body 1, and the nose is clamped in the middle of the rubber nose clip 36. The pinching block 41 is pinched in the direction of the cup body 1, and the pinching block 41 drives the abutting block 45 to abut the driving block 43 to slide along the mounting groove 42 in the direction of the push spring 44, and the driving block 43 drives the connecting rod 46 to pull the first connecting rope 31 and the second connecting rope 32 to move, supported by the arc sleeve 2 and the bracket 3. At this time, the first connecting rope 31 pulls the corresponding first sliding sleeve 35 to move along the support rod 34 toward the second sliding sleeve 39, and the second connecting rope 32 pulls the corresponding second sliding sleeve 39 to move along the support rod 34 toward the first sliding sleeve 35. The tops of the first sliding sleeve 35 and the second sliding sleeve 39 both drive the corresponding rubber nose clip 36 to move, thereby clamping the nose placed in the middle of the rubber nose clip 36. Finally, the bottom of the cup body 1 is lifted upward so that the open end of the cup body 1 is located at the bottom, so that the liquid medicine in the cup body 1 can flow into the patient's mouth accurately and quickly through the drinking opening at the open end of the cup body 1 by the action of gravity, which is quick and convenient.
