Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of paper cups, and particularly to disposable portable coffee paper cups. Background Technology
[0002] In the current coffee beverage industry, the use of disposable coffee paper cups and coffee powder is quite common, but existing technologies have many problems.
[0003] Most existing disposable paper cups are only used as containers for beverages and are separate from coffee powder. In practice, consumers need to prepare separate coffee paper cups and coffee powder, a process that is extremely cumbersome. For example, in outdoor or travel settings, people need to carry multiple items such as coffee powder, cups, and stirring tools, which not only increases the burden of carrying them but also makes it easy to forget something, seriously affecting the convenience of use.
[0004] Even those designs that combine coffee and container elements have significant flaws. Some products simply place the coffee powder packet and paper cup together, failing to achieve true integration. This means that when brewing, one still needs to manually tear open the coffee powder packet and pour it into the paper cup, the process is not simplified, and coffee powder is easily spilled during the tearing process, causing waste and potentially making a mess.
[0005] From a storage and transportation perspective, the existing technology is not well-designed. Separate coffee powder packaging and paper cups take up considerable space during storage, hindering retailers from stockpiling large quantities and increasing warehousing costs. During transportation, the separation of the two can easily lead to packaging damage, affecting product quality. Furthermore, this separate design increases waste, requiring separate disposal of paper cups and coffee powder packaging, which is detrimental to environmental protection.
[0006] The current technology of separating coffee paper cups from coffee powder has significant shortcomings in terms of convenience, operation process, storage and transportation, and environmental protection. There is an urgent need for an innovative design to improve this situation. Utility Model Content
[0007] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a disposable portable coffee paper cup to solve the problems existing in the background art.
[0008] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a disposable portable coffee paper cup, including a cup wall and a cup bottom. The cup bottom has a hexagonal structure and six first folds are provided on the cup bottom. The six first folds converge from the end corners of the cup bottom towards the center, dividing the cup bottom into six equal triangular structures. Six cup walls are folded and connected to each other on the outer edge of the cup bottom. The six cup walls are folded and connected to each other or adhered to each other. Second folds are provided on the cup walls. A coffee filter paper is also pasted on the inner side wall of one of the cup walls.
[0009] Preferably, the cup wall has a trapezoidal structure, with its bottom length being the same as the bottom side length of the hexagonal structure, and its top length being greater than its bottom length, so that the cup body forms a hexagonal structure with a large opening and a small bottom.
[0010] Preferably, the second crease includes crease A, crease B and crease C, wherein the two ends of crease A extend to the middle of the upper and lower ends of the cup wall, one end of crease B and crease C are located at the bottom corner of the cup wall, and the other end intersects crease A and is symmetrical about crease A.
[0011] Preferably, the creases B and C have the same length as the first crease, and in the flattened state, the creases B and C form a grid structure with the first crease.
[0012] Preferably, a connecting paper strip is provided on one side of the cup wall, and the connecting paper strip is provided with adhesive to adhere and connect the six cup walls to each other.
[0013] Preferably, the adhesive is a food-grade biodegradable adhesive.
[0014] Preferably, the coffee filter paper is made of food-grade material.

[0023] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] Disposable portable coffee paper cups, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the cup includes a cup wall 2 and a cup bottom 1. The cup bottom 1 has a hexagonal structure and six first fold lines 11 are provided on the cup bottom 1. The six first fold lines 11 converge from the corners of the cup bottom 1 towards the center, dividing the cup bottom 1 into six equal triangular structures. Under the action of the six first fold lines 11, the bottom can be folded out.
[0026] Six cup walls 2 are folded and connected to each other on the outer edge of the cup bottom 1. The six cup walls 2 are folded and connected to each other. A second crease 3 is provided on the cup wall 2. Specifically, the second crease 3 includes crease A31, crease B32 and crease C33. The cup wall 2 can be folded inward through crease A31, crease B32 and crease C33.
[0027] A coffee filter paper 4 is also attached to the inner side wall of one of the cup walls 2. The coffee filter paper 4 is made of food-grade material and forms a space with the cup wall 2 for placing coffee powder.
[0028] Furthermore, the cup wall 2 has a trapezoidal structure, with its bottom length being the same as the bottom side length of the hexagonal structure, and its top length being greater than its bottom length, so that the cup body forms a hexagonal structure with a large opening and a small bottom.
[0029] By combining a novel inner wall structure with a folding structure, coffee powder is stably fixed to the inner wall of the cup, forming an integrated "container-raw material" structure. This replaces the traditional separate structure of coffee powder and cup, making it not only simple to operate and convenient to carry, but also ensuring compatibility between the powder fixing method and the folding structure.
[0030] To use, first unfold the cup wall 2. Once fully unfolded, gently press the bottom 1 of the cup to open the folded paper cup. After the cup is opened, pour in drinking water until it exceeds the upper edge of the coffee filter paper. Finally, gently shake to mix.
[0031] Furthermore, the two ends of crease A31 extend to the middle of the upper and lower ends of the cup wall 2, respectively. One end of creases B32 and C33 is located at the bottom corner of the cup wall 2, and the other end intersects with crease A31 and is symmetrical about crease A31. Moreover, creases B32 and C33 have the same length as the first crease 11, and in the flattened state, creases B32 and C33 form a grid structure with the first crease 11.
[0032] By using microstructured fixed mesh and environmentally friendly processes, the coffee powder is ensured to be less prone to falling off or deliquescence during transportation, folding, and storage. At the same time, the paper cup maintains its foldable characteristics, reduces space occupation, and optimizes the moisture-proof and oxidation-proof sealing design to extend shelf life. Combined with the gradient grooves on the inner wall and the surface treatment of the flow-guiding structure, the coffee powder is evenly dissolved, improving the brewing taste. It meets the synergistic design of portability, stability, and functionality, providing a beverage container that integrates convenience, safety, and efficiency, and developing towards a ready-to-use and green environmental protection direction.
[0033] In this embodiment, the cup wall 2 has a trapezoidal structure, with its bottom length being the same as the bottom side length of the hexagonal structure, and its top length being greater than its bottom length, so that the cup body forms a hexagonal structure with a large opening and a small bottom.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] Disposable portable coffee paper cups, such as Figure 3-4 As shown, the cup includes a cup wall 2 and a cup bottom 1. The cup bottom 1 has a hexagonal structure and six first fold lines 11 are provided on the cup bottom 1. The six first fold lines 11 converge from the corners of the cup bottom 1 towards the center, dividing the cup bottom 1 into six equal triangular structures. Under the action of the six first fold lines 11, the bottom can be folded out.
[0036] Six cup walls 2 are folded and connected to the outer edge of the cup bottom 1. The six cup walls 2 are adhered to each other. Specifically, a connecting paper strip 5 is provided on one side of the cup wall 2, and glue is provided on the connecting paper strip 5 to adhere the six cup walls 2 to each other.
[0037] It should be noted that the adhesive used is a food-grade biodegradable adhesive, such as BASF's Epotal eco-friendly water-based adhesive, natural polymer-based adhesives (such as adhesives made from natural materials such as starch, cellulose, and chitosan), and biodegradable adhesives (such as bio-based modified adhesives such as PLA (polylactic acid) and PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate).
[0038] A second crease 3 is also provided on the cup wall 2. Specifically, the second crease 3 includes crease A31, crease B32 and crease C33. The cup wall 2 can be folded inward by creases A31, B32 and C33. A coffee filter paper 4 is also attached to the inner side wall of one of the cup walls 2. The coffee filter paper 4 is made of food-grade material. The coffee filter paper 4 and the cup wall 2 form a space for placing coffee powder.
[0039] By combining a novel inner wall structure, folding structure, and adhesion structure, coffee powder is stably fixed to the inner wall of the cup, forming an integrated "container-raw material" structure. This replaces the traditional separate structure of coffee powder and cup, making it not only simple to operate and convenient to carry, but also ensuring compatibility between the powder fixing method and the folding structure.
[0040] To use, first unfold the cup wall 2. Then, using the connecting strip 5 and the glue on it, attach the six cup walls 2 together to form a hollow hexagonal structure. Next, gently press the bottom 1 of the cup to open the folded paper cup. After the cup is opened, pour in drinking water until it exceeds the upper edge of the coffee filter paper. Finally, gently shake it to mix well.
[0041] Furthermore, the cup wall 2 has a trapezoidal structure, with its bottom length being the same as the bottom side length of the hexagonal structure, and its top length being greater than its bottom length, so that the cup body forms a hexagonal structure with a large opening and a small bottom.
[0042] Furthermore, the two ends of crease A31 extend to the middle of the upper and lower ends of the cup wall 2, respectively. One end of creases B32 and C33 is located at the bottom corner of the cup wall 2, and the other end intersects with crease A31 and is symmetrical about crease A31. Moreover, creases B32 and C33 have the same length as the first crease 11, and in the flattened state, creases B32 and C33 form a grid structure with the first crease 11.
[0043] Through environmentally friendly processes such as food-grade biodegradable adhesive layers and microstructured fixed mesh, the coffee powder is ensured to be less prone to falling off or deliquescence during transportation, folding, and storage. At the same time, the paper cup maintains its foldable characteristics, reduces space occupation, and optimizes the moisture-proof and oxidation-proof sealing design to extend shelf life. Combined with the gradient grooves on the inner wall and the surface treatment of the flow-guiding structure, the coffee powder is evenly dissolved, improving the brewing taste. It meets the synergistic design of portability, stability, and functionality, providing a beverage container that integrates convenience, safety, and efficiency, and developing towards a ready-to-use and green environmental protection direction.
[0044] In this embodiment, the cup wall 2 has a trapezoidal structure, with its bottom length being the same as the bottom side length of the hexagonal structure, and its top length being greater than its bottom length, so that the cup body forms a hexagonal structure with a large opening and a small bottom.
