The entire system is constructed from impact-resistant ABS plastic with non-slip silicone grips for stable operation. The electronically controlled locking mechanism automatically adjusts the tube tension to create optimal sealing pressure, while the temperature sensor continuously monitors the beverage's temperature. This makes the system particularly suitable for assisted living facilities and everyday use by individuals who value enhanced drinking safety and comfort.
[0032] Fig. Figure 2 illustrates two different orthographic views of the proposed system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0033] Fig. Figure 2 features an improved anti-spill design for the elderly. The system has an electronic adjustment that tightens the ropes until sufficient tension is achieved to ensure an airtight seal. The system has two simple functions: "lock" and "unlock".
[0034] In one embodiment, the system integrates two core functions: The first is the electronically controlled fastening mechanism. This consists of an electric motor connected to a spool that winds tension cables. These cables are anchored to the lid at three points and, when tensioned by the motor, securely close the lid onto the cup, creating a leak-proof seal. The second function of the system is the intelligent lid assembly with a silicone drinking tube and cap, enabling safe and controlled beverage intake. To ensure compatibility with standard-sized cups, two food-grade silicone seals are attached to the underside of the lid, providing an adaptable, leak-proof fit for various cup diameters.In addition, the system includes user-friendly design elements specifically designed to prevent spillage of drinks from cups commonly used by elderly people.
[0035] In one implementation, the user places the cup on the system's upper tray and puts the lid over the cup opening. Once the lid is in place, the user can press the locking button, which immediately activates the motorized locking mechanism and securely fixes the lid in position. To remove the cup, the process is reversed after pressing the release button, allowing for safe and effortless disassembly. The system works by electronically securing the cup within its body by pressing a locking button, creating a secure and stable connection between the lid and cup. This mechanism ensures safe and controlled beverage consumption for elderly users, reduces the risk of spills, and increases drinking comfort.
[0036] Fig. Figure 3A shows a schematic exploded view of the proposed system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0037] Fig. Figure 3B shows a schematic exploded view of the proposed system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
[0038] The system essentially consists of a main body and a lid assembly, both of which are described in detail below.
[0039] As in Fig. 3A and Fig. As shown in Figure 3B, the main body acts as the primary housing of the system and consists of several components, each contributing to its structural integrity and functionality. At the base are the lower grip components (102c) made of low-friction silicone, which are bonded to the lower shell (102a) made of impact-resistant AB S plastic. These grips provide sufficient static friction to prevent unintentional movement of the device during operation. The lower shell (102a) also incorporates three precision-molded grooves geometrically aligned for the placement of ring grips (102e). These ring grips, also made of silicone, enhance stability during manual handling by increasing the coefficient of friction between the user's hand and the device surface, thus reducing the risk of slippage.The lower shell houses the main electronic subsystems, including the circuit board (106h), a rechargeable lithium-ion battery (106g), a DC motor (106a), and a coil unit (106b). The motor is mechanically coupled to the coil, which winds and releases the tension wires when the lid is opened and closed. The system is operated via two external controls: a locking button (106e) and a release button (106f). These are ergonomically positioned and easily accessible. The upper shell (102b), also made of ABS plastic, snaps onto the lower shell, completing the core housing. Final assembly is achieved by attaching the cup handle (102d), a silicone-based component, to the top of the upper shell. This handle is designed to conform to the outer contour of a standard cup and provides a secure grip through localized pressure when the cup is inserted into the device.
[0040] Referring to Fig. 3A and Fig.In 3B, the lid assembly is designed to ensure a secure, leak-proof seal. Two silicone seals (104b) of different diameters are attached to the lid (104a) in the bottom layer. These seals serve to close any micro-gaps between the rim of the cup and the lid, thus improving leak-proofness and stability. The lid (104a) itself is made of ABS plastic and features precision-cut recesses: one for inserting the silicone tube and another, a recessed housing, for the display module (108b). The display module (108b) is an electronic sensor unit responsible for monitoring the beverage temperature and activating the LED display (108c), a high-resolution screen that transmits temperature values in real time.A transparent polycarbonate glass cover (104c) covers the lid, providing both protection and structural stability to the components beneath. Above this are two silicone-based components: the silicone tube (110a) and the silicone tube cap (110b). The silicone tube (110a), made of food-grade, heat-insulating silicone, allows for safe liquid consumption while minimizing heat transfer to the user's lips. The silicone tube cap (110b), made of the same material, acts as a locking mechanism, snapping securely onto the tube opening when not in use to prevent spills and retain heat. Three anchoring elements, designated as cable locks (106d), further secure the assembly. These are robustly attached to the glass cover (104c) and are made of durable ABS plastic. They serve as attachment points for the locking mechanism.Three tensile-bearing ropes (106c) made of high-strength nylon thread, selected for their tensile strength and durability under repeated loads, complete the fastening system. These ropes ensure a stable connection between the lid and the main body during operation.
[0041] In one embodiment, the proposed system includes a universal fitting mechanism that securely fits standard-sized cups using an adjustable clamping mechanism, thus ensuring compatibility with a wide variety of household tableware without the need for resizing. The system features a motorized three-point locking mechanism that electronically secures the lid to the cup, creating a tight, leak-proof seal. Locking and unlocking are performed via clearly marked buttons, enabling smooth and intuitive operation. The lid is equipped with a digital, real-time temperature sensor that clearly displays the current liquid temperature. This allows users, especially the elderly, to visually assess whether the beverage is at a safe drinking temperature, thereby reducing the risk of scalding.A soft, silicone spout integrated into the lid allows for comfortable and controlled drinking, making it easier for people with limited mobility, dexterity, or swallowing difficulties to use, while ensuring leak-proof protection. The sealed lid, combined with the electronic locking mechanism and central drinking spout, provides a leak-proof and spill-free solution, even if the cup is tipped or subjected to minor disturbances. The system is designed for one-handed operation, allowing users to drink and lock / unlock the lid with minimal effort. This improves accessibility for people with motor impairments or those who multitask in their daily lives. The system is made from food-grade materials with a smooth surface, such as medical-grade silicone and BPA-free polymers.This ensures safe contact with beverages and easy cleaning, thus supporting hygienic daily use. All interface elements, including buttons, temperature display, and spout positioning, are designed to provide clear visual and tactile feedback, promoting intuitive operation and supporting users with visual or motor impairments.
[0042] The proposed system offers several advantages over the conventional overflow protection system, some of which are described below: Improved stability – The cup is attached to the bowl with high-tension cables. The tension is generated electronically by a DC motor. Multiple grip surfaces ensure smooth and comfortable enjoyment of the beverage from the cup. Safety – The silicone tube protrudes from the lid, ensuring a controlled flow of liquid when tilting the lid for drinking. The silicone tube comes with a silicone tube cap to cover the opening and prevent spills in case of an accident. Versatility - All standard cup sizes can be integrated with this device. Durability - Durable materials were used for longer use.
[0043] The system's compact, modular design is lightweight and travel-friendly, making it suitable for use at home or on the go without compromising durability or functionality. The system combines leak protection, reliable temperature monitoring, and ergonomic drinking to support independent and safe daily hydration.
