Double Chamber Cocktail Glass DCCG is a glass with two compartments for two separate drinks. It is equipped with a cap system (2), which allows the drinks to be sipped separately from two different outlets without getting mixed. (DCCG) consists of torso, cap and a cooling band.
CONVENTIONAL PRODUCTS
Some cocktails or liquors consist of two different drinks, which should be sipped one after another. Conventionally these liquors are served in two separate glasses. Having the drink in two separate glasses can be a problem if it is drunk during a cocktail or pub environment where the user doesn’t sit on a table. DCCG allows the user to carry these types of cocktails / drinks in a single glass and sip them separately without mixing with each other.
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of DCCG is offering the luxury to carry two different drinks in one glass and allow them to be sipped separately from different outlets without mixing each other. DCCG is also equipped with a cooling band that keeps the drinks cool without the need of ice that takes extra volume in the glass and also dilutes the drinks after a while.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
DCCG consists of a two-compartment torso (1) and cap (2) that allows the user to sip two different drinks separately without mixing them. The user rotates the glass and tilts it at the required angle to drink from each compartment separately. The use of the cooling band (3) keeps the temperature of the drinks down without taking extra volume in the glass and diluting the drinks.
The torso (1) is divided into two compartments (1c, 1d) with the compartment dike (1b). The cap (2) is inserted into the torso mouth and sits on the top edge of the compartment dike (1e). The torso has a neck covering (1a) that hides out the cap (2) details. The cap (2) consists of four parts: Cap-top part (2-1), Cap-bottom part (2-2) and two float valves (2-3). The Cap-top part (2-1) has two outlets (2-1a) on each side. Its elliptic top contour (2-1c); Fig.3) allows the drinks to flow through the outlets (2-1a) into the mouth of the torso. The cap- bottom part (2-2) is made of an elastomeric material and has a notched neck (2-2a) for a tight and impermeable insert into the torso. The float valves (2-3) in each float valve chamber (2-1b) can move freely inside.
In order to sip one of the drinks the torso should be rotated till the correct chamber faces the mouth and tilted at a right angle (Fig.7). Due to the buoyant force of the drinks the float valves (2-3) moves upwards in the float valve chambers (2-1b). The drink at the lower chamber flows through the cap inlets (2-2b), float valve chamber (2-1b) and cap outlets (2-1a) into the torso mouth. The drink at the upper chamber cannot flow out of the float valve chamber (2-1b), because the upper outlet (2-1a) is choked by the upper float valve (Fig.7). For sipping the other drink the torso should be rotated 180 degrees and tilted at the right angle. This time the second drink flows into the torso mouth while the first drink is choked in the cap assembly (2).
