Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to an improved leak-proof cup. More particularly, the present invention relates to a cup assembly having a cap bearing a drinking spout at one side and an air vent spaced from the drinking spout, with a flow control element frictionally engaged in the vicinity of the drinking spout and air vent to allow passage of liquid out and air in during use, while preventing significant leakage through the spout and vent when not in use.
- the present invention provides a drinking cup assembly including a cup having an open end; a cap adapted to enclose the open end, the cap including a drinking spout and an air vent and mating surfaces adjacent or incorporated into the drinking spout and the air vent; and a flow control valve including two stacks adapted to engage the mating surfaces, each of the two stacks having a concave valve face at a top portion thereof.
- a flow control valve including two stacks adapted to engage the mating surfaces, each of the two stacks having a concave valve face at a top portion thereof.
- Figure 2 is a perspective view of a cup, cap and valve assembly according to the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a section diagram taken along the lines 3-
- Figure 4 is a side view of the valve of Figure 3; and Figure 5 is a top view of the valve of Figure 3.
- the cup, cap and valve assembly of the present invention is generally referred to by reference numeral 10.
- the assembly 10 includes a cup 12, a cap 14 and a flow control valve 20.
- Cap 14 is adapted to seal cup 12, with the exception of the apertures in the spout 16 and air vent 18 formed in its surface.
- Flow control valve 20 is adapted to communicate with spout 16 and air vent 18, to form the substantially spill-proof assembly 10.
- Cap 14 is formed with mating surfaces, preferably adjacent to or incorporated into spout 16 and air vent 18, to frictionally engage flow control valve 20 and place the flow control valve in fluid communication with spout 16 and air vent 18.
- cap 14 is formed with cylindrical recesses 17 within spout 16 and below air vent 18. These recesses 17 are configured to accept flow control valve 20.
- flow control valve 20 includes two stacks 24.
- Stacks 24 include lower portions 26, upper portions 28 and valve faces 30 bearing slits 32. These stacks 24 are adapted to be pressed into recesses 17 to friction fit flow control valve 20 into cap 14. Accordingly, when recesses 17 have a lower cylindrical portion, as preferred, lower portions 26 of stacks 24 are also preferably substantially cylindrical in shape.
- each stack 24 is elongated.
- each stack 24 is of significant diameter and of substantially equal height.
- the elongated shape of stacks 24 enables them to place valve faces 30 and slits 32 (see Figure 5) in close proximity to the apertures in spout 16 and air vent 18.
- the diameter of stacks 24 permits significant, relatively unconstrained fluid flow to the area of slits 32. It has been found that this arrangement provides optimal balancing of suction needed to open slits 32 and the fluid flow through the slits.
- the outer contour of stacks 24 be stepped, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, but that the inner contour of the stacks be a constant diameter or of constantly diminishing diameter, thus presenting a smooth, unstepped inner face.
- the smooth inner face is preferably either cylindrical, frustoconical, or a combination of the two. This smooth inner face further enhances free fluid flow and promotes easy cleaning of stacks ' 24. The fact that this preferred flow control valve 20 is easy to clean is very important both to the proper and sanitary functioning of the assembly 10, and also to consumer acceptance of the valve.
- valve faces 30 in conjunction with the attendant curved shape of slits 32, provides superior fluid flow rate through slits 32 than existing valve configurations. This makes the assembly 10 easier to drink from and less frustrating and tiring to use. Furthermore, it has been found that elongated single slits 32 are preferred to cross- cuts or other types of apertures through valve faces 30. It is also preferred that slits 32 extend substantially from edge to edge of concave valve faces 30.
- the radius of curvature of the valve face 30 that is aligned with spout 16 is about 0.267 inches.
- the most preferred radius of curvature of the valve face 30 that is aligned with air vent 18 is also about 0.267 inches.
- the most preferred length of slit 32 that is aligned with spout 16 is about 0.235 inches.
- the most preferred length of slit 32 that is aligned with air vent 18 is about 0.170 inches.
- the most preferred inner diameter of the stack 24 that is aligned with spout 16 is from about 0.301 inches to about 0.368 inches, ideally a frustoconical shape having the foregoing as minimum and maximum diameters .
- the most preferred inner diameter of the stack 24 that is aligned with air vent 18 is from about 0.252 inches to about 0.368 inches, ideally a frustoconical shape having the foregoing as minimum and maximum diameters.
- the most preferred height of the stack 24 that is aligned with spout 16 is about 0.803 inches from top to bottom, and about 0.521 inches from indentation to bottom.
- the most preferred height of the stack 24 that is aligned with air vent 18 is about 0.730 from top to bottom, and about 0.550 from indentation to bottom.
- the two stacks 24 are preferably 1.60 inches on center.
- the preferred outer diameter of the lower portion 26 of the stack 24 that is aligned with spout 16 is about 0.522 inches.
- the preferred outer diameter of the lower portion 26 of the stack 24 that is aligned with air vent 18 is about 0.457 inches. These dimensions provide an interference fit with a cup lid having cylindrical recesses 17 having preferred inner diameters of about 0.499 inches and about 0.439 inches, respectively. All of the foregoing measurements are subject to a preferred tolerance of plus or minus about 0.005 inches. In addition, a further dimension that is most preferred is the thickness of valve face 30. It is most preferably about 0.023 inches thick, with a preferred tolerance of only about plus or minus 0.002 inches. This dimension has been found to be very important in providing proper flexion of the valve faces 30 and opening of slits 32 under suction during use.
- the flow control valve 20 be formed from a single piece of elastomeric material to facilitate easy insertion into and removal from recesses 17.
- flow control valve 20 can be formed of two separate valving elements, each adapted to be inserted into recesses 17 or otherwise engage cap 14.
- the elastomeric material used is most preferably silicone, but TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), natural rubber, and synthetic rubber (e.g., isoprene) are also preferred.
- TPE thermoplastic elastomer
- natural rubber e.g., isoprene
- Valve C Sample Suction to Suction for Time to Evacuate Number Start Flow Continuous 100 ml water (sec. (psi) Flow (psi)
- Valve A a valve according to the present invention, requires lower suction to generate a continuous flow than the prior art valves, and requires less time to evacuate 100 ml of water than the prior art elastomeric valve, Valve B. Moreover, this Valve A is more consistent from sample to sample than the controls. This provides a more acceptable product.
