Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities technology, and in particular to a cup. Background Technology
[0002] Cups are indispensable drinking vessels in people's daily lives. Currently, most cups on the market use direct printing, pasting, or engraving to create patterns or decorations on their exteriors. Once completed, these patterns remain fixed, presenting a static effect. With prolonged use, such monotonous, static patterns can easily lead to visual fatigue and aesthetic boredom, failing to meet the growing demand of modern consumers, especially younger generations, for personalized, fun, and interactive products.
[0003] Although there are some existing technologies that attempt to change the appearance of cups, such as using heat-sensitive materials or electronic displays, these solutions may have problems such as high cost, complex structure, poor durability, or dependence on external energy, making it difficult to widely apply them in ordinary daily products.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cup that is simple in structure, low in cost, requires no external energy, and can provide a dynamic visual experience to enhance the fun and aesthetics of the product and solve the problem of user aesthetic fatigue. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following solution: This utility model provides a cup, comprising: The cup body has an outer wall that is transparent or semi-transparent, and a sandwich layer is provided between the inner wall and the outer wall of the cup body; The interlayer contains at least two types of fillers with different densities and different colors; When the cup is inverted or flipped, the filling material can move within the interlayer due to gravity or buoyancy to form different patterns.
[0007] Furthermore, the filler includes fluids and solid particles; The fluid is a transparent or translucent material; The density of the solid particles is different from that of the fluid.
[0008] Furthermore, the solid particles have at least two colors, with solid particles of the same color having the same density and solid particles of different colors having different densities.
[0009] Furthermore, the density of all the solid particles is greater than the density of the fluid, which includes both gas and liquid; Or the density of all the solid particles is less than the density of the fluid.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer wall of the cup body or the inner wall of the interlayer is provided with a pattern.
[0011] Furthermore, the cup body is prismatic or cylindrical.
[0012] Furthermore, the cup body has openings at both the top and bottom ends, and each opening has a detachable lid.
[0013] Furthermore, a protective sleeve is provided on the outer surface of the cup lid.
[0014] Furthermore, the cup body is provided with a handle.
[0015] Furthermore, the interlayer is an annular sealed cavity surrounding the cup body.
[0016] The present invention achieves the following technical advantages over the prior art: This invention discloses a cup that incorporates fillers of varying densities and colors (such as fluids and solid particles) within a layer of the cup body. When the user inverts or flips the cup, the fillers move, settle, and recombine within the layer under the influence of gravity or buoyancy, automatically forming random and dynamically changing patterns. This process provides the user with a continuously fresh visual experience, greatly enhancing the cup's appeal and artistic aesthetics. Its simple structure, low cost, and convenient operation, coupled with the requirement for no external power source, effectively prevent aesthetic fatigue caused by prolonged viewing of static patterns.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cup that solves the problems existing in the prior art, enabling the cup to provide a dynamic visual experience without external energy, and is simple in structure, low in cost, and easy to operate, effectively avoiding aesthetic fatigue caused by prolonged viewing of static patterns.
[0021] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0022] This utility model provides a cup, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the device includes: a cup body 1, wherein the outer wall 1-2 of the cup body 1 is transparent or semi-transparent, and a sandwich layer 1-3 is provided between the inner wall 1-1 and the outer wall 1-2 of the cup body 1; the sandwich layer 1-3 contains at least two fillers of different densities and colors, shown in the attached figure as a transparent liquid and multicolored solid particles with a density greater than that of the liquid; when the cup body 1 is inverted or flipped, these fillers can move within the sandwich layer 1-3 due to gravity or buoyancy to form different patterns. It should be noted that the fillers are not limited to liquids and solid particles, but can also be two or more liquids or gases with different densities and colors, which can also achieve dynamic visual effects.
[0023] Its working principle is as follows: At least two different types of fillers (such as fluid and solid particles) of different densities and colors are placed within the interlayer 1-3 of the cup body 1. When the user flips or inverts the cup body 1, the fillers move freely, settle, and recombine within the interlayer 1-3 due to gravity or buoyancy, thus automatically forming random and dynamically changing patterns. This process provides the user with a continuously fresh visual experience, greatly enhancing the cup's fun and artistic appeal without requiring external energy, while effectively avoiding aesthetic fatigue caused by prolonged viewing of static patterns.
[0024] As an example of an implementable approach, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the filling material includes fluid and solid particles; the fluid is a transparent or translucent material, while the solid particles have a different density than the fluid; when the user flips or inverts the cup body 1, the solid particles in the interlayer 1-3 slowly sink under the influence of gravity or slowly float under the influence of buoyancy, thus presenting a dynamic image, and the final pattern is different from the arrangement before flipping. To achieve a more layered visual effect, the solid particles can have at least two colors, with particles of the same color having the same density and particles of different colors having different densities, so as to form clear color bands due to density differences.
[0025] When the density of all solid particles is greater than the density of the fluid, the dynamic pattern is formed by the falling solid particles. In this case, the fluid can be a mixture of gas and liquid; the gas rises and can obstruct the bottom of the solid particles that have not completely fallen, thus prolonging the overall falling time and enhancing the duration of the dynamic effect. In this configuration, the solid particles can be sand (4), glass particles, etc., the liquid in the fluid can be water (6) or mineral oil, and the gas can be air (5) or nitrogen, etc. The attached diagram shows an example combination using sand (4), water (6), and air (5). When the user flips the cup 1, the sand (4) slowly sinks in the water (6) under gravity, creating the dynamic image, while the air (5) at the bottom of the sand (4) prolongs its sinking time.
[0026] When the density of all solid particles is less than the density of the fluid, the dynamic pattern is formed by the solid particles floating to the surface. In this case, the solid particles can be foam particles, plastic particles, etc., and the liquid in the fluid can be water or mineral oil, etc.
[0027] As an example of implementation, a pattern is provided on the outer wall 1-2 of the cup body 1 or the inner wall 1-1 of the interlayer 1-3. When the user flips or inverts the cup body 1, the dynamically changing pattern formed by the filling material combines with the pattern provided on the cup body 1 to form a pattern that combines movement and stillness, effectively increasing the fun. The cup body 1 can be prismatic or cylindrical.
[0028] As an example of an implementable approach, such as Figures 1 to 6As shown, the cup body 1 has openings at both the top and bottom, and each opening has a removable lid 2. This design allows the user to use the cup normally from either end after flipping the cup body 1. In addition, a protective sleeve 3, made of silicone or rubber, can be provided on the outer surface of the lid 2 to prevent slipping and absorb shock.
[0029] As an example of implementation, a handle can also be provided on the cup body 1 for easy gripping by the user.
[0030] As an example of implementation, the interlayer 1-3 can be an annular sealed cavity surrounding the cup body 1.
[0031] Any adaptive changes made according to actual needs are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0032] It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, it is obvious that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this utility model. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this utility model.
