[0024] As an embodiment, limiting structure 2 is protruded on cup body 1 inner wall to form limiting protrusion, which can limit cup body 1 and strengthen the strength of cup body 1.Specifically, limiting structure 2 is an integral part of cup body 1, which is convenient for integrated molding.Specifically, cup body 1 can be a plastic part, such as polypropylene part, which is convenient for injection molding and mass production.

[0025] As an embodiment, limiting structure 2 is arranged towards the axis of cup body 1, so that limiting structure 2 is opposite to the outer side of one of cup body 1, which makes the contact area between limiting structure 2 and one of cup body 1 large, has good limiting effect on cup body 1, and is not easy to scratch the outer side of cup body 1, with high reliability.

[0026] As an embodiment, the limiting structures 2 are evenly distributed along the inner side walls of the cup bodies 1, and the limiting structures 2 uniformly extrude the cup bodies 1, so that the cup bodies 1 are uniformly stressed.

[0027] Figure 3 is a front view of the beverage cup of the utility model, Figure 4 is Figure 3 is an enlarged schematic view of A in FIG. 1, and Figure 3 and 4 In the embodiment shown in the drawings, in order to further improve the cup separating effect, a circular arc 3 is arranged between the side surface of the limiting structure 2 near the axis of the cup body 1 and the corresponding inner bottom surface of the cup body 1. The arrangement of the circular arc 3 strengthens the connection strength between the bottom of the cup body 1 and the side wall of the cup body 1, effectively prevents the downward impact of gravity on the bottom of the cup body 1, and causes the bottom of the cup body 1 to be damaged, reduces the contact area between the cup body 1 and the limiting structure 2, prevents the cup body 1 from being stuck at the position where the limiting structure 2 is connected to the cup body 1, and makes the cup bodies 2 easy to separate. Specifically, the bottom surface of the limiting structure 2 is fixed on the inner surface of the corresponding cup body 1, so that the connection strength between the bottom of the cup body 1 and the side wall of the cup body 1 is strengthened, and the downward impact of gravity on the bottom of the cup body 1 is effectively prevented, and the bottom of the cup body 1 is damaged.

That is, when the shortest distance between the side surface of the limiting structure 2 near the cup body axis 1 and the cup body 1 axis is equal to the radius of the lower end of the cup body 1, the bottom surface of one of the cup bodies 1 abuts against the inner bottom surface of the other cup body 1, so that the stacking tightness between the cup bodies 1 is small; when the shortest distance between the side surface of the limiting structure 2 near the cup body axis 1 and the cup body 1 axis is less than the radius of the lower end of the cup body 1, the bottom surface of one of the cup bodies 1 abuts against the inclined surface of the limiting structure 2, so that the stacking tightness between the cup bodies 1 can be adjusted, and the lower one of the cup bodies 1 is pressed, and the stacking between the cup bodies 1 is tighter, which can be adjusted according to the use condition.

[0032] Specifically, the limiting structure 2 is a limiting protrusion, which plays a role in strengthening the strength of the cup body 1 and limiting the cup body 1 to prevent it from being easily separated. Specifically, the bottom surface of the limiting structure 2 is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the corresponding cup body 1, and the side surface of the limiting structure 2 away from the cup body 1 axis is fixed to the inner side wall of the corresponding cup body 1. Specifically, the shape of the cross section of the limiting structure 2 is similar to a trapezoid.

[0033] Specifically, in order to further improve the reliability of separation, the outer side surface of the upper end of the cup body 1 is provided with an annular protrusion protruding from the outer side surface of the cup body 1, and there is a gap between the adjacent two annular protrusions when stacking, so that the cup body 1 can be separated by inserting a hand into the gap.
