When walking with drinks, it often happens that drinks spell from the cup and dirty clothes. This self-balancing cup holder consists of two sets of connecting columns that are perpendicular to each other. When the cup is put in, under the action of gravity, the cup holder will automatically adjust the Angle, so that the cup will always stays horizontal. This way, the liquid in the cup will not spill out when slightly shaken. The combination is divided into cup-holder, cup-handle and cup-pallet. It can be used in different scenarios, such as restaurant, cafe or street. Through such a small improvement can solve the problem of drinks spilling.
