Abstract

The present invention acts as a container for food or beverages and may be converted into an apparatus to enhance an applause or boo. One embodiment is an elongated resilient member (20) attached to a container (110). The elongated resilient member is in close proximity to the container such that when the elongated resilient member is pulled away (M) from the container and released the elongated resilient member snaps back making an audible sound. Another embodiment is an apparatus for holding a beverage container. The apparatus has a top (48), a bottom (44), and at least two sidewall sections (58, 59) fixedly attached. By detaching the sidewall sections in at least one place the sidewall sections may be open and closed such that the sidewall sections hit each other to make an audible sound.

Description

i METHOD AND APPARATUS TO INTENSIFY AN APPLAUSE OR OVATION FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for creating a sound or noise, or enhancing applause or ovations, more particularly with a device cap of creating, generating, projecting or amplifying an audible sound, which allows the person or the viewer spend a minimum amount of energy to create a noise or applause or ovations, while maintaining or increasing the level of the applause sound.
The applause-enhancing device may also include a means for holding a beverage or food, or a beverage or food container. The present invention can also provide an insulating means for maintaining the food or beverage at a desired temperature. The present invention also relates to articles and packages in which a mark, message or something similar can be easily read from a first orientation or perspective, with a second message that is selectively hidden when the articles or container are viewed from the first perspective, more even the second message can be looked at when viewed from a second orientation or perspective. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Spectators at an audience normally express approval of an act or artist at create an audible sound that is known as applause. An audience can consist of a single viewer, or a large number of observers. Applause is typically created by striking both hands to generate an audible sound known as "applause".
Applause is usually created by putting together the fingers of the first hand where they form a row and touch each other, and flatly hitting the palm of the opposite hand. An applause is also generated when hitting palm against palm or fingers against fingers. 20 Applause or ovations is the most commonly used method to demonstrate appreciation for an actor's approval or performance. Conversely, viewers show their disapproval of an actor or performance by booing, and booing can be as passionate and intensely loud as applause or cheers. In any case, the reaction of the audience to an actor or performance is indicated by a noise or audible sound. The applause or ovations is not limited to applause, but includes vocal sounds such as speaking or shouting, stomping with the feet and sounds made by a variety of other actions or devices that make noise.
The dynamics involved in projecting a noise when hitting two elements, such as the hands, is simple and creates an audible and sharp sound. Sound is a vibration, or series of vibrations, that travel through 1 air or some fluid. A sound is usually perceived by an auditory organ or as an auditory sensation. The sound also feels like a vibrating sensation.
While normal applause produces a satisfactory level of sound, prolonged or repeated applause can cause swelling and irritation of the tissue of the hand. The pain that is created by repeated applause also results in a diminished desire on the part of the audience or spectator to clap and / or clap.
Temperature also plays a factor in the ability of the audience to generate applause. When an event is held outdoors in a cold climate, spectators and fans should wear heavier clothing to protect the body from the elements of the cold. Gloves are usually worn in cold climates, which greatly inhibits the viewer's ability to generate audible applause with their hands. Whether one has to take off gloves or mittens to generate a loud applause, or applaud with gloves on, which produces a muffled applause. Then the spectators must shout to generate the desired applause or ovations.
Viewers also use their voice to cheer or boo, and they usually raise their voice or shout during an event. Many spectators put their hands in hollow form around their mouth to create a configuration similar to a megaphone to direct the sound in a desired direction. While the normal scream produces a satisfactory level of sound, prolonged or repeated screaming can produce a loss of voice and an irritation of the tissue of the throat. The pain that is created by the repeated screaming also results in a diminished desire of an audience or spectator to scream.
Some examples of prior art devices used to create applause or ovations are: drums, noisemakers, wind instruments, megaphones and rattles. A simple device for making noise by Kerr is taught in U.S. Patent No. 4,463,517, wherein a multi-vane apparatus with a central pole moves forwards and backwards to generate a noise. The use of Kerr's invention does not replicate a normal applause movement. Other pallet related devices are taught in US patents # D378, 384 by Gilbert, and # D351, 627 by Bec ith, but are limited to one palette and lack an auditory camera or a means to project a voice and to hold a drink or food, or a container for drink or food.
Several attempts have also been made to combine a megaphone and rate as taught in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,501,363 by Muller et al, # 4,125,218 by ueboer, and # 4,618,066 for Vail where a drink is placed directly in the internal cavity of the rate. Then a liquid-proof seal is needed to contain a liquid in the rate itself, and the lid that closes separately must be removed before using the rate as a megaphone. The lid or reusable lids that close can easily get lost during the course of an event. A certified food grade material or plastic should also be used in any appliance where the food or beverage is in direct contact with the appliance.
Figure 1 shows a container of the prior art 110, which is used to hold a food or drink, which comprises an internal cavity 113, and a base or foot 112. As illustrated, the container can be filled with food or drinks and it can be grasped with one hand. Many containers of the prior art include indicative signs or advertisements. Figure 2 illustrates a cross-sectional view of the prior art container 110 of Figure 1 which comprises an i-ternal cavity 113, a base or foot 112, and a rear part 111. The prior art container works Well as a container, it can be stacked, and it is usually manufactured as a disposable product at the lowest possible cost. A cold or hot drink placed in such a container quickly loses its desired temperature.
Figure 17 shows a cropped perspective of an isolated rate container or carrier of the prior art 11, which has a bottom 12 holding a beverage container or a can 10. A bottle or a food container can also be held by the container. carrier 11. Many carriers for rates of the prior art may also include advertisements and / or indicia.
Figure 26 shows a full side perspective of a prior art container or rate carrier 211 having a mark or signal 219, wherein the rate carrier holds a container for a beverage or a can 10, which has an opening in the upper part that jumps when depressed 13. A bottle or container of food can also be held by the carrier 211.
Typical food or beverage containers are produced in very large volumes, and are disposable, and can include recycled or recyclable materials.
What is needed is an apparatus and method for intensifying applause or cheering, which can also serve as a container for food or drinks, or which can hold a container for food and beverages, and which can include, individually or in combination, a means to create, project or amplify a sound, an insulating medium, a means of support, a means of grasping, a means of engaging, a means to alter, a means to free, a means to engage, a means to open, a means to limit, a mark of identification, a signal, a message or announcement which can be observed ddeessddee uunnaa first perspective, and a mark, signal, message or announcement "hidden" or hidden, which can be observed from a second perspective, and which solves the previously mentioned problems.
