The convertible cup holder presents a novel solution to a problem experienced by all beverage drinkers—an entire hand is required to hold a beverage container. The convertible cup holder is a convertible, disposable or reusable insulator, holder and cup-carrier that surrounds a beverage container. In its initial condition, the holder provides thermal insulation against the hot or cold temperature of the beverage. The cup holder can be used to improve the grip on the beverage or to make the beverage more comfortable to hold. If a user requires the use of the hand holding the beverage, the user is able to pull handles disposed within the holder into a deployed position, such that the user can now easily grip the beverage by using only one's finger. With handles deployed, the convertible cup holder allows the average beverage to be suspended and held by a single finger, thereby freeing up the majority of one's hand for other tasks. The beverage could also be suspended by a hook or other nearby object until the user is ready to resume consuming the beverage. The present invention enables a single individual to carry multiple beverages at the same time using only a single hand or finger.

The present invention relates most specifically to a hand-exercising device that, in fact, is a glove. Unlike any “field” apparatus that has come before, it is not worn as an extension to a hand or worn on the top of a hand or strapped or worn on a glove; it is the glove. This allows the flexibility of either the entire hand or any individual digit in a natural movement through a full range of motion thereby exercising the hand and digits in the most prosperous, utilitarian method for full potential of strength improvement humanly possible. This unparalleled achievement is accomplished via strategically integrated slender, pliable, flexible, non-breakable, aluminum and / or aluminum and PVC combination “spring-stays” (as in “to stiffen”) sheathed within the heavy corrugated / striated material of the “apparatus-glove”. In addition, there is a “complete glove itself” model which is, in its entirety, made of one eighth to one sixteenth inch width / depth flexible, spring-aluminum and / or PVC and / or combination alloy-metal then covered and / or integrated within a full material covering which is skin / hand compatible. A fixed and / or resting glove / hand setting results in maximum resistance to both opening and closing movements. Areas for high potential usage pertaining specifically to all sports (football, basketball, golf, soccer, tennis, track & field, baseball, volley ball, et. al.), as well as capacities for therapeutic inclination within the medical, industrial, and business worlds are virtually without boundaries.
