When the cup is opened and placed flat on a table, its unique bottom shape makes it prone to tilting. Once tilted, the liquid inside is highly likely to spill, resulting in waste and inconvenience, negatively impacting the user experience.
[0003] Therefore, existing technologies need to be improved and enhanced. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a PP cup for contact lenses that is not easy to tilt when placed flat, and the cup body is more operable, effectively improving the user experience.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A contact lens PP cup includes a cup body, the cup body including a storage area and a gripping area, the gripping area being provided with a first support portion and a second support portion protruding to one side, the storage area being recessed to form a storage cavity for storing contact lenses, the bottom of the storage cavity being on the same horizontal plane as the apex of the first support portion and the apex of the second support portion and being connected to each other to define a triangle.
[0007] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage cavity, the apex of the first support, and the apex of the second support define an isosceles triangle.
[0008] Furthermore, a first positioning piece is provided in the gripping area corresponding to the position of the first support part, and a second positioning piece is provided in the gripping area corresponding to the position of the second support part. The first positioning piece and the second positioning piece are used to fix the cup body when filling the preservation liquid and lens.
[0009] Furthermore, the protrusion height of the first support portion is higher than the protrusion height of the first positioning piece; the protrusion height of the second support portion is higher than the protrusion height of the second positioning piece.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer surface of the storage cavity is provided with several support members, and the lowest point of each support member is located on the same horizontal plane.
[0011] Furthermore, the cup body is covered with a sealing film for sealing the storage cavity, and the sealing film is adhered to the gripping area. Furthermore, the gripping area includes a first extension and a second extension, with a first support portion and a second support portion respectively disposed on the first extension and the second extension, and an included angle between the first extension and the second extension. Furthermore, the surfaces of both the first support portion and the second support portion are arc-shaped.
[0012] Furthermore, the cup body is integrally molded.
[0013] Furthermore, a sealing ring is provided at the opening of the storage cavity, and the sealing film seals the storage cavity through the sealing ring.
[0014] Compared to existing technologies, the contact lens PP cup provided by this utility model includes a cup body, which comprises a storage area and a gripping area.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the contact lens PP cup provided by this utility model includes a cup body 1, which includes a storage area 2 and a holding area 3. The holding area 3 is provided with a first support part 31 and a second support part 32. The storage area 2 is recessed to form a storage cavity 21 for storing contact lenses. The direction of the recess in the storage cavity 21 is the same as the direction of the protrusion of the first support part 31 and the second support part 32. The bottom of the storage cavity 21, the apex of the first support part 31, and the apex of the second support part 32 are on the same horizontal plane and are connected to form a triangle. This three-point support, like a tripod, allows the cup body 1 to be stably placed flat on a table.
[0031] It is understandable that the bottom of the storage cavity 21, the apex of the first support 31, and the apex of the second support 32 are on the same horizontal plane and are connected to form a triangle, which allows the cup body 1 to be placed stably on the table without tilting, that is, it allows the cup body 1 to be placed flat at 180°, preventing the storage liquid in the storage cavity 21 from overflowing.
[0032] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model defines a triangle by connecting the bottom of the storage cavity 21, the apex of the first support part 31, and the apex of the second support part 32 to the same horizontal plane. This makes it less likely for the cup body 1 to tilt when placed flat, effectively improving the user experience. In addition, the first support part 31 and the second support part 32 provide a point of force when the user holds the cup and a support point when placing the PP cup. The two support parts are structurally reused, greatly improving the practicality of the PP cup, while also enhancing the aesthetic design when combined with the storage cavity.
[0033] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage cavity 21, the apex of the first support part 31, and the apex of the second support part 32 are connected to form an isosceles triangle. The isosceles triangle can make the force on both sides of the cup body 1 uniform, making the cup body 1 more stable.
[0034] Furthermore, a first positioning piece 33 is provided in the gripping area 3 corresponding to the position of the first support part 31, and a second positioning piece 34 is provided in the gripping area 3 corresponding to the position of the second support part 32. The first positioning piece 33 and the second positioning piece 34 are used to fix the cup body 1 when filling the preservation liquid and lens. It can be understood that the cup body 1 can be fixed on the filling machine by gripping the first positioning piece 33 and the second positioning piece 34, which facilitates the filling of the preservation liquid and lens.
[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the protrusion height of the first support portion 31 is higher than that of the first positioning piece 33; the protrusion height of the second support portion 32 is higher than that of the second positioning piece 34. When the cup body 1 is placed on a horizontal surface, it ensures that the first support portion 31 and the second support portion 32 are in contact with the ground to support the cup body 1, and also prevents the protrusion height of the first positioning piece 33 and the second positioning piece 34 from being too large, making it difficult for the user's fingers to insert between the first positioning piece 33 and the first support portion 31, or between the second positioning piece 34 and the second support portion 32, thus making it difficult for the user to hold the first positioning piece 33 or the second positioning piece 34.
[0036] Specifically, the protrusion height of the first support portion 31 is 2mm higher than the protrusion height of the first positioning piece 33.
[0037] Specifically, the protrusion height of the second support portion 32 is 2mm higher than the protrusion height of the second positioning piece 34.
[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 3As shown, the outer surface of the storage cavity 21 is provided with several support members 22, and the lowest point of each support member 22 is located on the same horizontal plane. The support members 22 are in direct contact with the tabletop, which can support the cup body 1 more stably. Even if the first support part 31 is shaped, the cup body 1 can be placed stably on the tabletop by means of the support members 22.
[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the first support part 31 and the second support part 32 are provided with a plane 5. The lowest point of the support member 22 is located on the plane 5. The plane 5 allows the first support part 31 and the second support part 32 to be placed flat on the table. The lowest point of the support member 22 is located on the plane 5, which can ensure that the cup body 1 can remain horizontal when placed on the table and prevent the liquid in the storage cavity 21 from overflowing.
[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the cup body 1 is covered with a sealing film 4 for sealing the storage cavity 21, and the sealing film 4 is adhered to the grip area 3. The sealing film 4 can isolate external air and prevent the storage liquid in the storage cavity 21 from overflowing and oxidizing and deteriorating. In addition, the sealing film 4 is adhered to the grip area 3, making it easy for the user to tear the sealing film 4 by hand when using it.
[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the cup body 1 includes a first extension 35 and a second extension 36. A first support 31 and a second support 32 are respectively disposed on the first extension 35 and the second extension 36, and an angle is formed between the first extension 35 and the second extension 36. The angle ensures that the apex of the first support 31, the apex of the second support 32, and the bottom of the storage cavity 21 are on the same horizontal plane and that a line connecting them defines a triangle, effectively providing the stability of the cup body 1.
[0042] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the surfaces of the first support portion 31 and the second support portion 32 are both arc-shaped, making it easy for the user's fingers to fit snugly and facilitating operation. Furthermore, the cup body 1 is integrally molded, meaning the storage area 2 and the gripping area 3 are integrally injection molded, resulting in a more stable connection between the storage area 2 and the gripping area 3, a simple manufacturing process, and lower manufacturing costs. It should be noted that the integral molding of the cup body 1 with the first support portion 31 and the second support portion 32 allows the cup body 1 to be designed in different shapes. In this embodiment, the cup body 1 is shaped like a rabbit, but it can also be designed as a bear, elephant, cat, fish, etc. The shape of the cup body 1 enhances the user's recognition of the product, facilitating quick identification of the types of items contained within, effectively increasing the user experience. The technical solution of this application not only provides practical value but also enhances emotional value.
[0043] Furthermore, a sealing ring (not shown in the figure) is provided at the opening of the storage cavity 21. The sealing membrane 4 seals the storage cavity 21 through the sealing ring. When the sealing membrane 4 covers the surface of the cup body 1, the sealing ring increases the airtightness of the connection between the sealing membrane 4 and the cup body 1, preventing the storage liquid in the storage cavity 21 from overflowing. It should be noted that the assembly process between the sealing membrane 4 and the cup body 1 is to press the sealing membrane 4 onto the surface of the cup body 1. During the pressing process, the sealing ring will tightly abut against the cup body 1 and the sealing membrane 4, thereby achieving a sealing effect.
[0044] In summary, the contact lens PP cup provided by this utility model has a support member 22 that directly contacts the table, providing more stable support for the cup body 1. This facilitates shaping of the storage area 2. The lowest point of the support member 22 is located on a flat surface, ensuring the cup body 1 can be placed horizontally and preventing liquid overflow from the storage cavity 21. The cup body 1 can be fixed in a certain position by holding the first positioning piece 33 and the second positioning piece 34, facilitating the filling of preservation solution and lens insertion. The sealing film 4 isolates external air, preventing the preservation solution in the storage cavity 21 from overflowing and oxidizing. Furthermore, by having the bottom of the storage cavity 21, the apex of the first support member 31, and the apex of the second support member 32 on the same horizontal plane and connected to form a triangle, the cup body 1 is less prone to tilting when placed flat, effectively improving the user experience.
[0045] The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims. All of these forms are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
