Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a beverage cup and its sleeve structure, and in particular to a beverage cup and its sleeve structure having a winder installed on the outer surface of the cup lid. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, due to the rising awareness of environmental protection and plastic reduction, cup sleeves made with less plastic or environmentally friendly materials have emerged. These cup sleeves are used to cover the body of beverage cups, and some even have carrying straps, allowing users to hold the cup while walking. When users no longer wish to use the cup sleeve, they can remove it from the cup and store it. However, most cup sleeves are small and easily lost or forgotten after storage. On the other hand, some users simply discard the cup sleeves after use. Therefore, if they need to reuse them, they have to ask the vendor for or buy them again, resulting in waste.

[0003] Furthermore, most cup sleeves on the market are made of non-woven fabric and are simply sewn together. Although they have handles, these cup sleeves are not strong enough. If they are put on heavy beverage cups, they are easy to be damaged or the handles may break. They are also difficult to reuse for a long time.

[0004] In view of the above problems, in order to enable users to reuse cup sleeves on beverage cups and avoid damage to the cup sleeves during use, it is urgent to develop a cup sleeve structure that is more convenient for users to use, has better structural strength, and is easy to store, and apply it to beverage cups to improve the above common problems.
