IMPROVEMENT IN OR RELATING TO DRINKING VESSEL HOLDERS

摘要

The invention relates to drinking vessel holders for engaging around a tapered cup. In one embodiment the holder comprises a sleeve (20) formed from a band (21) of material with the ends of the band joined together. Sleeve (20) has a taper angle different to that of the cup, whereby one annular edge (20A) of the sleeve engages the cup and the other annular edge (20B) of the sleeve is spaced from the cup so creating an air gap between the sleeve and the cup. In another embodiment a drinking vessel holder comprises a sleeve (110) formed from a band (111) of a material with the ends of the band joined together. Sleeve (110) has at least one cutout (112) whereby, when said sleeve is mounted on a cup printed information, such as "X" is visible through the or each sleeve cutout.
