Cup and method for stacking the same

Abstract

Cups and a method for stacking the same. A cup comprises a plurality of feet, and a plurality of cuts are formed between each foot. The shape of the feet and the shape of the cuts are complementary. By joining the feet of the first cup and the cuts of the second cup, the feet of the first cup and the cuts of the second cup are securely joined.

1 . A cup, comprising a plurality of feet, wherein a plurality of cuts are formed between each of the plurality of feet, and the shape of the feet and the shape of the cuts are complementary.  
   
   
       2 . The cup as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the number of the plurality of feet is three, and the number of the plurality of cuts is three.  
   
   
       3 . The cup as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the shape of the plurality of feet and the shape of the plurality of cuts are both square.  
   
   
       4 . The cup as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the shape of the plurality of feet and the shape of the plurality of cuts are both curved, and each of the plurality of feet is corresponding to each of the plurality of cuts, and the plurality of feet and the plurality of cuts have the same radian, and the sum for the radian of the plurality of the feet equals the sum for the radian of the plurality of the cuts.  
   
   
       5 . The cup as claimed in  claim 1 , further comprising a base and a body, wherein the thickness of the base is greater than the thickness of the body.  
   
   
       6 . The cup as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the plurality of feet are extended outward from the base.  
   
   
       7 . The cup as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein the shape of the plurality of feet and the shape of plurality of cuts are both curved, the radian of the plurality of feet and the radian of the plurality of cuts are equal.  
   
   
       8 . The cup as claimed in  claim 6 , wherein each of the plurality of feet corresponds to each of the plurality of cuts for another cup of the same shape to be joined by their plurality of feet and plurality of cuts.  
   
   
       9 . The cup as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the plurality of feet further comprise protrusions, the plurality of cuts comprise recesses; the protrusions insert into the recesses to match the plurality of feet and the plurality of cuts.  
   
   
       10 . A cup, comprising a plurality of feet, wherein a plurality of cuts are formed between each of the feet, when the plurality of feet of the cup is inserted to the plurality of cuts of another cup, the shape of the plurality of feet of the cup is complementary to the shape of the plurality of cuts of another cup.  
   
   
       11 . The cup as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the shape of the plurality of cuts of the cup is complementary to the shape of the plurality of feet of another cup.  
   
   
       12 . The cup as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the plurality of feet of the cup and the plurality of cuts of another cup are both curved, and both the curved plurality of feet and plurality of cuts have the same radian.  
   
   
       13 . The cup as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the shape of each of the feet of the cup is the same and the shape of each of the cuts of another cup is the same.  
   
   
       14 . The cup as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the number of the plurality of feet of the cup is three and the number of the plurality of cuts of another cup is three.  
   
   
       15 . The cup as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the cup and another cup are in the same shape.  
   
   
       16 . A method for stacking cups comprising: 
 providing a first cup and a second cup, wherein the first cup and the second cup both have a plurality of feet, and a plurality of cuts formed between each plurality of feet; and    joining the plurality of feet of the first cup with the plurality of cuts of the second cup, wherein the plurality of feet of the first cup and the plurality of cuts of the second cup are complementarily in shape.
