  • Patent number: 8272529
    Abstract: The invention provides a drink mixing cup for fluids comprising an outer chamber having an outer rim disposed at its top and a chamber disposed inside the outer chamber having an inner rim disposed below the outer rim by an amount selected to optimize mixing fluids poured from said chambers when drunk by humans while not interfering with their noses. The design allows for nesting of cups to reduce storage space. Anti-nesting ribs prevent full nesting so that separation of cups is not difficult. When thin walls made from plastic are used and the inner chamber is elevated, the fluid in the inner chamber is thermally insulated. When inverted, the chamber below the inner chamber can serve as a drinking glass.

  • Patent number: 7523840
    Abstract: The invention provides a drink mixing cup for fluids comprising an outer chamber having an outer rim disposed at its top and a chamber disposed inside the outer chamber having an inner rim disposed below the outer rim by an amount selected to optimize mixing fluids poured from said chambers when drunk by humans. The design allows for nesting of cups and thermal insulation of the inner chamber. An advantageous method of delivering mixed drinks to patrons can be obtained using one or more cups having an outer chamber and an inner chamber and having a space below the inner chamber disposed inside said outer chamber and a tray having mandrels having a shape corresponding to the space below the inner chamber, whereby the cups can be mounted on the mandrels and prevented from sliding off the tray when tipped.
