Claims

1. A combination cup with a built in corkscrew type tool comprising: two separate portions that join together; a tulip shape drink receptacle attached to a hollow stem with a hollow cavity portion; a corkscrew centrally attached to a base portion; the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity portion sheathing the corkscrew centrally attached to the base; the corkscrew centrally attached to the base portion functioning as both a base to the tulip shaped drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity portion, when joined together, and as a handle to the corkscrew to remove a cork when separated from the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity portion.

2. The combination cup with a built in corkscrew type tool in accordance with claim 1 wherein: the corkscrew centrally attached to the base portion having a base that is circular and attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity and configured to fit the corkscrew securely inside of the tulip shaped drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity portion by means of friction provided by at least one circular ring seal, just slightly larger than an inside diameter of the hollow stem portion; and the friction of the circular ring secures the corkscrew safely in the hallow stem, and when the corkscrew centrally attached to the base is extracted from the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity portion, the corkscrew is configured to be used as a tool to remove corks from bottles.

3. The combination cup with a built in corkscrew type tool in accordance with claim 1 wherein: the corkscrew centrally attached to the base portion functions to extract corks from wine bottles by removing the corkscrew centrally attached to the base portion from the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with a hollow cavity portion, inserting and applying force to the corkscrew centrally attached to the base portion into a cork until the cork is removed, and the corkscrew centrally attached to the base functions to hold the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to the hollow stem with the hollow cavity portion in an upright position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] FIG. 1A is a side view of the combination cup with a built in corkscrew type tool invention. The invention has a tulip shape drink receptacle 1 attached to a hollow stem 2 which serves to sheath the corkscrew 3 in a hollow cavity 4 containing one open-end 5 opposite of the tulip shape drink receptacle 1. The base 6 of the combination cup with a built in corkscrew type tool contains a corkscrew 3 mounted in the center of the base 6 and includes at least one circular seal 7 to fit securely into the inside diameter of the hollow stem 2 that encases the corkscrew 3 in the hollow cavity 4; the corkscrew 3 centrally attached to the base 6 serves as a handle to the corkscrew 3 which functions to provide leverage to remove a cork from a bottle. The corkscrew centrally attached to the base 6, slides into the open-end 5 of the hollow cavity 4 of the hollow stem 2 to provide a base 6 for the tulip shape drink receptacle 1 attached to a hollow stem 2 portion of the combination cup with a built in corkscrew type tool.

[0013] FIG. 1B Illustrates the corkscrew 3 centrally attached to the base 6 portion of the invention and is a side view of the corkscrew 3 and base 6. The base 6 containing a centrally attached corkscrew 3 serves as a handle to the corkscrew 3 which functions to provide leverage to remove a cork from a bottle. At least one circular seal 7 securely joins the corkscrew 3 centrally attached to the base 6 to the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to a hollow stem in FIG. 1C. The base 6 functions to hold the tulip shape drink receptacle attached to a hollow stem portion in FIG. 1.C in an upright position.

[0014] FIG. 1C Illustrates the tulip shape drink receptacle 1 attached to a hollow stem 2 and hollow cavity 4 of the hollow stem 2 portion of the invention and is a side view of the tulip shaped drink receptacle 1 attached to a hollow stem 2 and a hollow cavity 4 of the hollow stem 2 with an open-end 5 opposite of the tulip shape drink receptacle 1 which serves to encase the corkscrew and base as described in FIG. 1B.
