Question 1

Can I lift drinks off the Tipsi Tray with a single hand while carrying it with the other hand?

Accepted Answer

We always recommend placing the TIpsi Tray on a flat surface before removing drinks. The balance point of the tray is in the dead centre and this can be manipulated by the carrying hand. Drinks and items can of course be placed to the side but it becomes more difficult. For a full tray of drinks, removing a single drink from one side can displace the balancing point. For this reason we recommend placing the tray down when it is full.

Question 2

Can the tipsi tray carry taller glasses such as branded lager glasses? Chalice? Etc. Thanks

Question 4

How does the TIpsi Tray actually work?

Accepted Answer

When you hold an open top drink, whether that be a cup of coffee, a glass of water or a beer there is always the chance of spilling it. Because of Newton’s Third Law we know that if a force is applied abruptly to one side of the cup, then the liquid inside the cup exerts a force of equal measure but in the opposite direction. There is also the force of gravity acting on the cup and liquid in a downward motion.

Basically if you knock the side of the cup then you enact a force on that side that then enacts the same force on to the liquid inside. This force causes it to splash to the opposite side and leave the edge of the cup, meaning it spills.

When you put the drink on the Tipsi Tray, you are holding the handle at the top and causing a new centre point at the top of that handle. By holding it loosely you allow the tray to move freely and if any lateral force was applied to your hand (someone bumped into you) then this does not translate to the handle or the tray or the side of the cup. Everything on the tray will swing together in the same direction. Gravity and the normal force end up working together and go in the same direction as the force that knocked the cup resulting in equal acceleration to the tray, cup and liquid meaning no spill.
