About Tada Drinkbeker

Tada is 'n herbruikbare drinkbeker wat ontwerp is vir gebruik deur bestuurders. Die deksel wys duidelik of dit oop of toe is, sodat aandag op die pad kan bly. 'n Magnetiese sluiting laat toe dat die deksel met een hand oop- en toegemaak kan word, en die beker se liggaam pas in algemene motor-bekerhouers terwyl dit 'n gemaklike greep bied. Die deksel en stop is van voedselgraad-polipropileen gemaak, en die liggaam is van voedselgraad-vlekvrye staal gemaak. Die magnetiese onderdele kan uitmekaar gehaal word vir deeglike skoonmaak. Tada ondersteun die daaglikse gebruik van herbruikbare bekers in plaas van weggooi-houers.

Design Challenge
As a car-mounted tumbler, achieving a perfect balance between spill-proof functionality and effortless opening is paramount. Drawing inspiration from the reliable wall switch structure, we skillfully integrated a magnetic closure mechanism into the lid design. This innovative approach enables users to effortlessly open and close the lid, just like flipping a light switch, while providing clear visibility of its open or closed status. To address food safety concerns, we employed a precise spin-welding technique to securely fuse the two magnet-containing components, ensuring exceptional stability and water-tightness. Furthermore, the magnetic structure facilitates easy disassembly, allowing users to thoroughly clean every corner of the cup for impeccable hygiene.
Research
Research has shown that drinking water while driving increases the risk of accidents. This is because when drivers focus on drinking, their attention becomes divided, leading to a decrease in their awareness of the road and surrounding environment, making it difficult for them to timely perceive and respond to sudden situations. Additionally, the act of picking up and putting down a water cup may cause the driver's hands to leave the steering wheel, reducing their ability to control the vehicle. This can be dangerous when quick reactions and precise operations are required in emergency situations.The design of TADA tumbler revolves around enhancing the drinking experience, and the development process includes conceptual and formal research, 3D modeling, physical mock-ups, and prototyping.
Inspiration
With the increase in the number of vehicles, more drivers are drinking beverages inside. Furthermore, environmental issues such as ocean pollution caused by disposable containers are threatening wildlife and human health. In this context, we have developed the TADA tumbler.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2022 and finished in March 2023 in Shanghai.
Operation Flow
With one-handed operation, users can safely access their drink while keeping their other hand free for driving. The spill-proof lid ensures worry-free mobility, preventing spills and leaks. The TADA tumbler enhances the driving experience, allowing users to enjoy their drinks while reducing their carbon footprint. It promotes the use of reusable cups and sustainability in everyday life.
