Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention relates to a beverage holder, in particular a one-piece holder for securely fixing a beverage cup to the stadium seat.
[0002] In football stadiums, there is usually no designated place to put drinks at the fold-down seats; in this case, drinks either have to be placed on the floor or held in your hand. Furthermore, it's easy for a drink to tip over or spill. Comfort is not good.
[0003] The invention is based on the objective of creating a drink holder that is easy to assemble and disassemble without tools.
[0004] A particularly good feature of the beverage holder according to the invention is that it is designed to hold a stadium cup containing 500 ml (0.5 kg) of beverage and would be able to hold up to 3 times that amount (1.5 kg) permanently.
[0005] The beverage holder according to the invention comprises a one-piece solution with a clip for attachment and serves directly as a cup holder, the rounded shape of which does not bother passersby. Removing and inserting the beverage cup is easily accomplished thanks to the conical recess (D).
[0006] Another advantage of the drink holder according to the invention is that it fits into any trouser pocket and can be taken along and reused after the stadium visit.
[0007] According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the cup holder and the handle are made from a single piece without sharp edges. The risk of injury when walking past is eliminated by the rounded outer contour.
[0008] The stadium cup holder according to the invention is particularly advantageous because it is made of UV-resistant PETG material and does not age quickly.
[0009] The invention will be further explained below with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1: Cup holder side view Fig. 2: Drink holder bottom view according to Fig. 1 Fig. 3: Drink holder, angled view with conical mount
