Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of disposable cup holders, and particularly relates to a multifunctional sugarcane pulp cup holder. Background Art

[0002] With the enhancement of environmental awareness and the pursuit of a sustainable lifestyle, the market demand for degradable and environmentally friendly disposable tableware is increasing continuously. As a common catering auxiliary item, disposable cup holders are widely used in various occasions such as fast food restaurants, cafes, and parties. However, most of the existing disposable cup holders have a relatively single design, mainly having the following deficiencies:

[0003] 1. Single function: Most of the disposable cup holders on the market at present only have the basic function of supporting cups. This single functional design limits the usage scenarios and applicable scopes of the products, and cannot meet the diverse needs of users in different situations. For example, in the case where a coaster is needed, traditional cup holders often cannot provide an effective solution.

[0004] 2. Limited environmental friendliness: Due to the single function, many users often directly discard these products when they do not need them as cup holders. And many disposable cup holders are made of plastic or paper, with a slow decomposition speed and complex recycling processes, increasing the pressure of garbage disposal.

[0005] In summary, the existing disposable cup holders have obvious deficiencies in terms of functionality and environmental protection. Developing a multifunctional and easily transformable disposable cup holder can not only improve the practicality and user experience of the product, but also reduce resource waste, better meeting the requirements of sustainable development. Through innovative designs and technologies, the multifunctionality and environmental performance of the product can be significantly improved, providing users with more convenient, comfortable, and environmentally friendly options.

[0023] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , a multifunctional sugarcane pulp cup holder includes a bottom ring part 100 and a top ring part 200. The bottom ring part 100 and the top ring part 200 are connected by a plurality of annularly arranged connecting pieces 300, and there is a space between the connecting pieces 300. A bending groove 310 is provided in the middle of the outer surface of the connecting piece 300 so that the connecting piece 300 can be bent outward. When the connecting pieces 300 are all extended, the cup holder is in the form of a cup holder; when the connecting pieces 300 are all bent outward, the cup holder is in the form of a cup mat. The above design enables the cup mat to have multiple usage forms. By changing the state (extended or bent) of the connecting piece 300, the user can easily switch its usage form according to actual needs. And considering the convenience of transportation and storage, when not in use, the entire cup holder can be folded into the shape of a cup mat, occupying extremely little space, enabling merchants to store a large number of such products more conveniently without worrying about occupying too much space.

[0024] For the convenience of users who are accustomed to using cups with handles, the present application is also designed with a cup handle. Specifically, a cup handle piece 400 is provided on one side of the top ring portion 200. A clamping portion 410 is provided at the end of the cup handle piece 400, and a card slot 320 for assembling with the clamping portion 410 is provided on the cup holder corresponding to the cup handle piece 400. The cup handle piece 400 can be converted into a cup handle to enhance the safety and comfort of the cup when held, and avoid the cup slipping due to accidents. The number of the card slots 320 is at least two, so that the user can adjust the cup handle according to needs, providing higher flexibility, and can disperse the acting force to a certain extent, improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0025] To improve the strength of the cup handle piece 400 and avoid the cup handle piece 400 being torn due to the excessive weight of the water cup when used as a cup holder, the thickness of the cup handle piece 400 is equal to the thickness of the top ring portion 200. This ensures a good combination between the cup handle piece 400 and the main body part, avoids unevenness caused by thickness differences, and can ensure the strength of the cup handle piece 400. The connection between the cup handle piece 400 and the top ring portion 200 has a rounded corner transition to strengthen the connection strength between the cup handle piece 400 and the top ring portion 200, reducing the possibility of fracture.

[0026] In addition, to ensure the strength of the overall structure of the cup holder, a number of vertical reinforcing ribs 330 are provided on the connecting piece 300, which can effectively increase the rigidity of the connecting piece 300 and avoid the connecting piece 300 being torn. One end of the reinforcing rib 330 is connected to the bottom ring portion 100 or the top ring portion 200. Such a design enables the reinforcing rib 330 to better conduct the force to the bottom ring portion 100 or the top ring portion 200, further enhancing the integrity and load-bearing capacity of the entire structure. The thickness of the top ring portion 200 and the bottom ring portion 100 is at least 2 mm, which helps to ensure that the product has sufficient strength and durability, and can maintain a good shape without deformation even after long-term use.

[0027] To further enhance the user experience, this design also particularly takes into account environmental protection factors. The material used is natural sugarcane pulp, which not only has good biodegradability, but also consumes much less energy and produces much less pollution during the production process than traditional plastic products. In addition, considering that liquid splashing may occur in the actual use scenario, the surface of this multifunctional cup holder has been specially treated to make it have certain waterproof performance, thereby extending the service life and keeping the appearance clean.

[0028] The protection scope of the present utility model includes but is not limited to the above embodiments. The protection scope of the present utility model is subject to the claims. Any replacement, deformation, and improvement that are easily conceivable by those skilled in the art to this technology fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
