I call my invention the Portable coffee, tea and hot chocolate maker. Starting from the
bottom up I will give a description of my invention. On the bottom of the mug is a removable
(screw off) condiment holder. There are four sections to the condiment holder. One for coffee
bags, tea bags, hot chocolate packages and the last one is for sugar and cream.
Next is the battery-powered heater. This is built inside the cup and operated by flicking
a switch underneath mug. This switch is located in between the mug part and the condiment
holder.
On the side of the mug is a long, vertical shaped carrying compartment for the hard
plastic stirrer. At the bottom of the stirrer is a small hook.
The handle of the mug is circular and a portion of it can be removed to allow it to act as
a clip for a bag. It is best illustrated if one was to think of a toilet roll holder. The interior part
can be pushed into the exterior part.
Inside the mug there is two vertical incisions ranging from the top of the cup to the
bottom. In these two incisions is where the "filter bag holder" is placed.
The filter bag holder is a small component of the invention, which acts like a coffee
filter. In this holder like compartment is placed either a coffee or tea bag. As well there is a
hook on the top of the holder which allows it to be removed after use. Once the water has
reached it's desired temperature a bag is placed inside the compartment and into the mug using
the vertical incisions as holders. The water must first pass through the bag to reach the other
side of the mug. Once the filter bag holder has reached the bottom the consumer uses the hard
plastic stirrer with the hook at the bottom to remove the filter bag holder.
The lid is removable by screwing it off and there is a small hole which can be covered
if someone chooses to drink with the lid on.
Appareil portatif pour la préparation du café, du thé et du chocolat chaud. Voici une description de cette invention, de bas en haut. Au bas d'une grosse tasse se trouve un porte-condiments dévissable composé de quatre sections. Des sections contiennent les sachets de café, de thé et de chocolat chaud, et une dernière section contient le sucre et la crème. côté se trouve un émetteur de chaleur à pile qui est intégré dans la tasse et fonctionne en actionnant un commutateur sous celle-ci. Ce commutateur est situé entre la tasse et le porte-condiments. Sur le côté de la tasse se trouve un compartiment porteur allongé et vertical pour l'agitateur de plastique dur. Au fond de l'agitateur, il y a un petit crochet. L'anse de la tasse est circulaire et une partie de cette anse peut être enlevée pour servir de pince pour un sachet. La meilleure façon de l'illustrer est de la comparer à un porte-papier hygiénique. La partie intérieure peut être poussée dans la partie extérieure. l'intérieur de la tasse se trouvent deux rainures verticales allant du haut au fond de la tasse. Dans ces deux rainures est placé le support de sachet filtrant. Celui-ci constitue un petit composant de cette invention, qui sert de filtre à café. Dans ce compartiment de support est placé un sachet de café ou de thé. Il y a un crochet au haut du support qui permet de l'enlever après usage. Lorsque l'eau a atteint une température voulue, un sachet est placé à l'intérieur du compartiment et dans la tasse en se servant des rainures verticales comme supports. L'eau doit d'abord passer à travers le sachet pour atteindre l'autre côté de la tasse. Lorsque le support de sachet filtrant a atteint le fond, l'utilisateur se sert de l'agitateur avec le crochet au fond pour enlever le support. Le couvercle peut être enlevé par dévissage. Il présente une petite ouverture pouvant être couverte, qui permet au consommateur de boire le contenu en laissant le couvercle sur le récipient.
