ABSTRACT:
A cup-shaped container formed of a molded synthetic resin. A handle is removably secured to a connector portion of the container, with the connection therebetween being constructed to cause an increase in the connection force as a result of weight of liquid placed in the container when the handle is supported as by a person using the container as a drinking cup. In one embodiment, the invention utilizes a closure having frictional engagement with an upper edge portion of the container for selectively closing the same. A connector between the closure and the handle provides an increase in the connection force as a result of the closure being secured to the container edge portion.
