Abstract

Disclosed is manufacturing an eco-friendly cup holder by recycling a textile waste, a waste fiber, and a waste plastic, and is a method of recycling a textile waste, a waste fiber, and a waste plastic, in which the textile waste, the waste fiber, and the waste plastic are crushed, a non-woven fabric is manufactured, and an eco-friendly cup holder based on the manufactured non-woven fabric.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An eco-friendly cup holder formed based on a non-woven fabric manufactured by recycling a textile waste, a waste fiber, and a waste plastic, the eco-friendly cup holder comprising:
 a holder body formed in a band shape having a certain width to surround an outer circumferential surface of a cup, configured to form a ring shape by bonding one end and the other end that are both sides of the band, and including the non-woven fabric.   
     
     
         2 . The eco-friendly cup holder of  claim 1 , wherein the one end and the other end of the holder body are bonded by high-frequency induction heating using a thermoplastic material. 
     
     
         3 . The eco-friendly cup holder of  claim 1 , wherein the non-woven fabric is treated with an antibacterial agent, and the antibacterial agent is copper oxide, copper sulfide, or 2-Hydroxypropyl-3-Piperazinyl-Quinoline Carboxylic Acid Salt Methacrylate. 
     
     
         4 . A method of manufacturing an eco-friendly cup holder by recycling a textile waste, a waste fiber, and a waste plastic, the method comprising:
 a) manufacturing a non-woven fabric by crushing the waste plastic, the textile waste, and the waste fiber;   b) processing the non-woven fabric into a band-shaped holder member having one end and the other end through pressing and cutting at a high temperature and a high pressure; and   c) forming a holder body by bonding the one end and the other end of the holder member.   
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein a) the manufacturing of the non-woven fabric includes:
 crushing the waste plastic, the textile waste, and the waste fiber into pieces having 5 cm or less, and then scutching the crushed pieces.   
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , further comprising:
 putting a bonding agent for bonding the pieces after the pieces are scutched,   wherein the bonding agent is a natural rubber resin, an epoxy resin, a urea resin, a melamine resin, or an acrylic resin.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein in b), during the pressing process, the non-woven fabric is subjected to a sterilization process. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the non-woven fabric is treated with an antibacterial agent to impart antibacterial properties to the sterilized non-woven fabric, and
 the antibacterial agent is copper oxide, copper sulfide, or 2-Hydroxypropyl-3-Piperazinyl-Quinoline Carboxylic Acid Salt Methacrylate.   
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein the non-woven fabric is treated with an air freshener to impart anti-odor properties to the sterilized non-woven fabric, and
 the air freshener is one selected from the group consisting of anethol, benzaldehyde, benzyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl formate, iso-bornyl acetate, camphene, cis-citral (neral), citronellal, citronellol, citronellyl acetate, para-cymene, decanal, dihydrolinalool, dihydromyrcenol, dimethyl phenyl carbinol, eucalyptol, geranial, geraniol, geranyl acetate, geranyl nitrile, cis-3-hexenyl acetate, hydroxycitronellal, d-Limonene, linalool, linalyl oxide, linalyl acetate, linalyl propionate, methyl anthranilate, alpha-methyl ionene, methyl nonyl acetaldehyde, methyl phenyl carvinyl acetate, raevomenthyl acetate, menthone, iso-Menthone, myrcene, myrsenyl acetate, myrcenol, nerol, neryl acetate, nonyl acetate, phenyl ethyl alcohol, alpha-pinene, beta-pinene, gamma-terpinene, alpha-terpineol, beta-terpineol, terpinyl acetate, vertenex (para-tert-butyl cyclohexyl acetate), amyl cinnamic aldehyde, iso-amyl salicylate, beta-caryophyllene, cedrene, cinnamic alcohol, coumarin, dimethyl benzyl carbinyl acetate, ethyl vanillin, eugenol, iso-eugenol, flor acetate, heliotropin, 3-cis-hexenyl salicylate, hexyl salicylate, lilyal (para-tertbutyl-alpha-methyl hydrocinnamic aldehyde), gamma-methyl ionene, nerolidol, patchouli alcohol, phenyl hexanol, beta-selinene, trichloromethyl phenyl carvinyl acetate, triethyl citrate, vanillin, and veratraldehyde.   
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein in c), a process of forming the holder body in a ring shape by bonding the one end and the other end of the holder member to each other using an adhesive is performed to form the holder body. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the adhesive is heated by high-frequency induction heating.
