FIG. 1 , aconventional cup sleeve 11 is formed by bending corrugated paper, and adhering two opposite ends of the corrugated paper using an adhesive. Thecup sleeve 11 serves as a heat insulator disposed around the circumference of acup 100, and facilitates holding of thecup 100. - However, the corrugated paper has a relatively large thickness and high cost. Recycling of the
cup sleeve 11 is inconvenient since it is necessary to remove the adhesive from thecup sleeve 11. Moreover, thecup sleeve 11 is unable to perfectly fit the circumference of thecup 100 because thecup sleeve 11 has double thickness at the position where the two opposite ends of the corrugated paper overlap and are attached to each other. Thus,such cup sleeve 11 is less likely to be used with a cup having a constant diameter. - In Taiwanese Utility Model No. M320352, a
cup sleeve 13 has been proposed (seeFIG. 2 ). Thecup sleeve 13 is made of an elastic material, and formed with a wavy surrounding surface to provide thermal insulation of thecup 100.

- Referring to
FIG. 3 , the first preferred embodiment of a cup sleeve according to this invention is shown, and the cup sleeve is adapted to be sleeved around acup 100, which has a lower closedend 101 and an upperopen end 102, and which tapers from the upperopen end 102 to the lower closedend 101. In this embodiment, the cup sleeve comprises asleeve body 2 formed with lower and upperopen ends - In the
sleeve body 2, the loweropen end 21 has a perimeter smaller than that of the upperopen end 22. The perimeter of the loweropen end 21 is close to that of the lower closedend 101 of thecup 100. Similarly, the perimeter of the upperopen end 22 is close to that of the upperopen end 102 of thecup 100. - As shown in
FIG. 4 , the cup sleeve is formed by folding a tissue paper to obtain a multilayered tissue paper, overlapping two opposite ends of the multilayered tissue paper, and embossing the overlap portion using an embossing device 200 (such as a steel seal device) formed with a predetermined pattern. After the embossing process, the cup sleeve is formed with an embossed pattern at the overlap portion, thereby forming a rough region 24 (see alsoFIG. 3 ). The overlap portion, which has been subjected to the embossing process, has a thickness substantially the same as that of the non-overlap portion of the cup sleeve. The cup sleeve may be formed with a plurality ofrough regions 24 by virtue of the embossing process. Preferably, thesleeve body 2 has a plurality ofnon-rough regions 23, and a plurality ofrough regions 24 that have a number identical to a number of thenon-rough regions 23, and that are disposed alternately with thenon-rough regions 24. - In this embodiment, the multilayered tissue paper is obtained by folding the tissue paper twice, such that the cup sleeve is a four-layer tissue paper to provide thermal insulation. The cup sleeve has two
non-rough regions 23 and tworough regions 24 on an outer surface thereof, and thenon-rough regions 23 and therough regions 24 are disposed alternately with each other. - The embossed pattern may be a trademark or other patterns for attracting the user's attention. Because the cup sleeve of this invention is made without using an adhesive, it is environmental friendly and can be produced at a relatively low cost. The
rough regions 24 also facilitate holding of thecup 100. Besides, since the cup sleeve is a multilayered tissue paper, the cup sleeve can be removed from thecup 100 to serve as a tissue napkin. -
FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrate the second preferred embodiment of a cup sleeve according to this invention. The second preferred embodiment differs from the first preferred embodiment in that, in the second preferred embodiment, each of thenon-rough regions 23 has apattern part 300 formed with a plurality of throughholes 231. Each of the throughholes 231 extends through thesleeve body 2. In detail, thepattern part 300 has a plurality of intersectingstrip portions 232 to define the throughholes 231, and the throughholes 231 are arranged to form a generally rhombus shape. With thethrough holes 231 formed in the generally rhombus shape, the intersectingstrip portions 232 can be stretched circumferentially such that the cup sleeve of this invention can be expanded to fit around a cup with a slightly larger size (seeFIG. 7 ). -
FIG. 8 illustrates the third preferred embodiment of a cup sleeve according to this invention. The third preferred embodiment differs from the second preferred embodiment in that, in the third preferred embodiment, the throughholes 231 formed in thepattern part 300 of each of thenon-rough regions 23 are formed into a pattern of a coffee cup. Based on an advertising requirement, the throughholes 231 may be formed into other patterns, such as a trademark or an advertisement. -
FIG. 9 illustrates the fourth preferred embodiment of a cup sleeve according to this invention. The fourth preferred embodiment differs from the third preferred embodiment in that, in the fourth preferred embodiment, the loweropen end 21 has a perimeter equal to that of the upperopen end 22, and thesleeve body 2 is formed with a plurality of spaced apart slits 221. Each of theslits 221 extends downwardly from the upperopen end 22 such that the upperopen end 22 is expandable. - Referring to
FIGS. 10 and 11 , when using the cup sleeve shown inFIG. 9 , the lowerclosed end 101 of thecup 100 is inserted into thesleeve body 2 from the upperopen end 22. With the progress of the insertion, although the perimeter of the upperopen end 22 is smaller than that of the upperopen end 102 of thecup 100, the cup sleeve of this invention can be sleeved around thecup 100. This is because the upperopen end 22 of thesleeve body 2 can be circumferentially stretched to expand due to the provision of theslits 221, and because thesleeve body 2 has a thickness much smaller than that of the corrugated paper used in a conventional cup sleeve and can be easily shaped by the user's hands. Accordingly, the upperopen end 22 of thesleeve body 2 can be tightly fitted with the perimeter of the upperopen end 102. -
FIG. 12 illustrates the fifth preferred embodiment of a cup sleeve according to this invention. The fifth preferred embodiment differs from the third preferred embodiment in that, in the fifth preferred embodiment, the cup sleeve further comprises acover body 3, and the loweropen end 21 has a perimeter greater than that of the upperopen end 22. Thecover body 3 is adapted to cover the upperopen end 102 of thecup 100, and has atop wall portion 31 and a surroundingwall portion 32 extending downwardly from a periphery of thetop wall portion 31. The surroundingwall portion 32 has a bottom end connected to the upperopen end 22 of thesleeve body 2. - In this preferred embodiment, the bottom end of the surrounding
wall portion 32 surrounds and engages the upperopen end 102 of thecup 100. Thesleeve body 2 is formed with aperforated tearing line 222 extending annularly along the upperopen end 22 of thesleeve body 2 in proximity to thecover body 3 such that thecover body 3 can be removed from thesleeve body 2. Thetop wall portion 31 may be formed with a drinking opening (not shown). Otherwise, if no drinking opening is formed, the user may remove thecover body 3 to drink the beverage in thecup 100. - In addition, as shown in
FIG. 12 , because the perimeter of the loweropen end 21 of thesleeve body 2 is greater than that of the lowerclosed end 101 of thecup 100, thesleeve body 2 can be further shaped or folded to enhance the thermal insulation effect of the cup sleeve. -
FIGS. 13 and 14 illustrate the sixth preferred embodiment of a cup sleeve according to this invention. The sixth preferred embodiment differs from the fifth preferred embodiment in that, in the sixth preferred embodiment, thesleeve body 2 is in a form of a circular ring shape. - To sum up, the cup sleeve according to this invention can provide thermal insulation between a cup and a user's hand, and the sleeve body of the cup sleeve can be easily recycled and printed with an advertisement.
