[0002] In daily life, thermal insulation containers, such as thermos pots and mugs, are commonly used beverage containers, especially in scenarios where the temperature of beverages needs to be maintained, such as at home, in the office, or during outdoor activities. Traditional thermal insulation containers are usually composed of a lid and a pot body, and their water outlet design is often relatively simple, lacking an effective water flow guiding structure, which makes it easy for the drink to splash when poured, causing inconvenience.
[0003] In addition, the lid structure of traditional thermal insulation containers is relatively simple and lacks multifunctional design. For example, the lid is usually simply covered on the pot body, lacking an effective sealing and opening mechanism, resulting in limited thermal insulation effect and inconvenient operation for users.
[0004] In addition, the spout of a traditional thermos container is usually integrally formed with the pot body, making it difficult to disassemble and clean. After long-term use, it is easy to accumulate dirt and bacteria, affecting the hygiene and safety of the beverage. At the same time, this one-piece design also limits the shape and function of the spout, and cannot meet the diverse usage needs of users.
[0005] In response to the above problems, some split insulation containers have begun to appear on the market, with lids and bodies that can be disassembled for easy cleaning and maintenance. However, these products still have many shortcomings in terms of spout design, lid versatility, and grip connection. For example, the spout lacks an effective water flow guiding structure, which makes it easy to splash when pouring water; the lid lacks a convenient opening and closing mechanism, and the operation is not user-friendly; the connection between the grip and the body is not firm enough and is easy to loosen or fall off.
[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of split heat preservation container, whose spout design can effectively guide water flow and reduce splashing; the lid has a multifunctional design, which is convenient for users to operate and maintain; at the same time, the connection between the gripping part and the kettle body is more firm and reliable, meeting the diverse usage needs of users. The present invention is proposed based on such background technology. Summary of the invention

[0034] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial effects:
[0035] 1. Improved pouring fluency and accuracy
[0036] The unique guide design of the combined spout is the key to achieving smooth and accurate pouring. The central guide groove and the side guide groove structure formed by the guide plate make the water flow out of the water outlet in a dispersed state first, and then orderly converge in the direction of the water outlet through each guide groove. This design effectively avoids the phenomenon of concentrated water spray or splashing that may occur when pouring water from traditional containers. Users can control the direction and flow of water more accurately, whether it is slow filling or fast pouring of large amounts of liquid, which can be done with ease, greatly reducing the risk of liquid spilling due to improper pouring, and improving the convenience and hygiene during use.
[0037] 2. The connection stability between the lid and the kettle body is enhanced
[0038] The installation body plays an important role in the connection between the lid and the body. Its special necking structure and the fine design of each connection section, such as the reliable connection between the threaded connection section and the lid, and the clamping method of the installation section and the opening of the body through the limit block, ensure the stability of the connection between the lid and the body. In daily use, whether the container is moved, placed or subjected to a slight external force collision, the lid is not easy to accidentally fall off or loosen, which effectively prevents heat loss and liquid leakage, provides a solid structural foundation for the thermal insulation performance of the container, and also enhances the overall durability and reliability of the product.
[0039] 3. Optimize the convenience of opening and closing the water outlet and the sealing performance
[0040] The linkage design of the switch handle and the valve body assembly realizes the convenience and efficiency of opening and closing the water outlet. The Z-shaped switch handle has a pressing part that is convenient for users to apply force. The Z-shaped design of the switch handle and the up and down movement of the hinged shaft allow users to open or close the water outlet with a simple press, which is simple and quick to operate. At the same time, the ergonomic design of the switch handle also improves the user's comfort and reduces fatigue during operation.
[0041] When the free end is pressed, the hinged shaft moves up and down in the mounting groove of the mounting plate, driving the valve stem to move, thereby accurately controlling the opening and closing of the water outlet by the valve plug. The sealing ring around the valve plug and the guide sleeve ensure good sealing of the water outlet in the closed state, effectively preventing heat from being lost through the water outlet, and extending the insulation time of the insulation container to the greatest extent, meeting the user's demand for long-term insulation. At the same time, during the opening and closing process, the operation is smooth and fluent, without any jamming or effort, bringing users a comfortable and convenient use experience.
[0042] 4. Universality and adaptability expansion
[0043] The installation section of the installation body has the ability to connect to a variety of kettle bodies or bottle bodies, which greatly expands the versatility of the product. Users can easily install the combined spout on containers of different specifications or types according to different usage scenarios and needs, realizing flexible integration and utilization of resources, and reducing the inconvenience of use or additional purchase costs caused by mismatched containers. Whether it is daily home use, outdoor travel or office environment, the split insulation container of the present invention can better adapt to various situations and provide users with more choices and convenience.
[0044] 5. Improved grip comfort and safety
[0045] The curved structure and connection component design of the gripping part fully consider the comfort and safety of the user's grip. The curved shape fits the natural shape of the human hand, making it more comfortable and natural to hold and reducing hand fatigue. The connection component at the connection end of the kettle body, including the connection block and the locking piece, ensures that the gripping part is tightly and firmly connected to the kettle body. During the process of lifting the container, the gripping part can provide a stable and reliable fulcrum to effectively prevent the container from slipping. Even when the container is full of liquid and heavy, the user can operate it easily and safely, further improving the practicality and user-friendliness of the product.
[0046] To sum up, the split insulated container of the present invention has achieved remarkable technical effects in many aspects such as pouring performance, connection stability, opening and closing convenience, versatility and holding experience through innovative structural design and coordinated work of various components, providing users with a high-quality, multi-functional, safe and reliable insulated container solution, which has broad market application prospects and significant social benefits.

[0060] Traditional thermal insulation containers often lack effective water flow guidance in the spout design, which causes drinks to splash easily when pouring, affecting the user experience. At the same time, the lid has a simple structure and lacks a convenient opening and closing mechanism, which limits the insulation effect and makes the operation cumbersome. In addition, the one-piece design of the spout and the pot body is not only difficult to clean and easy to breed bacteria, but also limits the diversity of the spout's functions. Although split thermal insulation containers have appeared on the market, there are still obvious deficiencies in the water flow control of the spout, the multifunctional design of the lid, and the stable connection of the grip.
[0061] Based on the above problems, the present invention proposes a new type of detachable thermal insulation container integrating water flow guidance, a multifunctional kettle lid, an easily detachable and washable spout and a stable grip.

[0105] 4. Overall assembly
[0106] The assembled kettle cover 2 is connected to the mounting body 31 of the assembled kettle spout 3 installed on the kettle body 1 via the threaded connection section 312 .
[0107] Rotate the pot cover 2 so that the threads of the pot cover 2 are tightly engaged with the threads of the mounting body 31 until the pot cover 2 is installed in place. At this time, the transition section 224 of the lower cover body 22 just extends into the annular limit retaining ring 314 between the threaded connection section 312 and the mounting section 313 of the mounting body 31, and is in close contact with the annular sealing ring 63 circumferentially arranged in the transition section 224, forming a good sealing structure to prevent heat from being lost from the connection between the pot cover 2 and the pot body 1.
[0108] Debug the opening and closing function of the water outlet 52. Press the free end 41 of the switch handle 4 to observe whether the valve stem 62 can move up and down smoothly in the guide sleeve 54, and whether the valve plug 61 can accurately open and close the water outlet 52. At the same time, check the diversion of the water flow when the water outlet 52 is opened, and observe whether the water flow forms a dispersed flow when flowing out of the water outlet 52 according to the design of the diversion part 33, and converges from the water outlet 52 to the water outlet direction through the central diversion groove 332 and the side diversion groove 333, and whether the water flow is uniform and stable, and whether there is any splashing phenomenon.
[0109] If any problems are found, such as excessive friction between components, poor water flow, etc., the corresponding components are adjusted or optimized, such as fine-tuning the shape of the guide plate 331, correcting the matching accuracy of the valve stem 62 and the guide sleeve 54, etc., until all functions of the entire insulation container meet the design requirements.
[0110] The split insulation container of the present invention can be applied to various scenarios such as household daily use, outdoor sports and office environment. The following is an application description of the above three application scenarios:
[0111] 1. Daily use scenarios at home
[0112] In an ordinary household environment, this split insulated container can be used to store hot water for family members to drink at any time.
[0113] The kettle body 1 is made of stainless steel and has good heat preservation performance. The mounting body 31 of the combined kettle spout 3 is tightly connected to the kettle cover 2 through the threaded connection section 312. The guide groove design of the guide part 33 ensures that when pouring hot water, the water flow is stable and will not splash.
[0114] The curved structure of the grip 32 makes it more comfortable for the user to pick up the heat preservation container, and the connecting assembly 7 ensures a firm connection between the grip 32 and the kettle body 1. Even if the kettle is filled with hot water, it can be operated safely.
[0115] Container assembly and initial state:
[0116] First, the mounting body 31 of the combined spout 3 is connected to the kettle body 1. Align the mounting section 313 of the mounting body 31 with the upper opening of the kettle body 1, and use the multiple array-distributed limit blocks 315 on the inner wall of the mounting section 313 to gently rotate and snap into the opening of the kettle body 1, so that the mounting body 31 is firmly fixed on the kettle body 1. At this time, the transition section 224 of the lower cover body 22 extends into the annular limit retaining ring 314 between the threaded connection section 312 and the mounting section 313 of the mounting body 31, and under the action of the annular sealing ring 63 around the transition section 224, a good sealing structure is formed.
[0117] Next, the upper cover 21 of the pot cover 2 is assembled with the lower cover 22. The upper cover 21 is buckled on the upper part of the lower cover 22 to ensure that the hollow parts inside the two fit together. Then the cap 23 is connected and fixed to the upper cover 21 through the connecting hole 24.
[0118] On the kettle lid 2, the hinge shaft 43 of the switch handle 4 passes through the upper through hole 25 of the upper cover body 21 and is hinged to the internal mounting plate 26. The valve plug 61 connected to one end of the valve stem 62 is sealed at the lower opening of the cylindrical cavity 51 of the lower cover body 22. The other end of the valve stem 62 passes through the guide sleeve 54 in the center of the cylindrical cavity 51 and abuts against the abutment portion 45 of the switch handle 4, and the upper end of the valve stem 62 extends into the limiting groove 46 of the abutment portion 45. The entire valve body assembly 6 is in a state of closing the water outlet 52, and the container is ready for storing hot water and other heat-insulating liquids.
[0119] Pouring water operation: When the user needs to pour water, such as making tea or coffee, the user holds the gripping portion 32 with his hand. The curved structure of the gripping portion 32 fits the palm of the hand and provides a comfortable grip. Then press the pressing portion 44 of the switch handle 4 with a finger, and the switch handle 4 rotates around the hinge shaft 43. The hinge shaft 43 moves downward along the mounting groove 27 on the mounting plate 26, driving the valve stem 62 to rise, and the valve plug 61 leaves the lower opening of the cylindrical cavity 51, and the water outlet 52 opens. At this time, hot water flows out from the water outlets 52 on both sides of the cylindrical cavity 51. Due to the effect of the guide portion 33 of the combined spout 3, the water flow is first dispersed to the central guide groove 332 and the side guide grooves 333 of the guide plate 331, and then converges into a uniform and stable water flow and is injected into containers such as tea cups or coffee cups. Users can easily control the size and direction of the water flow according to their needs to avoid hot water splashing out to scald or wet the desktop.
[0120] When parents prepare breakfast for their children and need to prepare milk powder, they gently press the free end 41 of the switch handle 4, the water outlet 52 opens, and hot water flows out of the kettle, converges through the guide groove, and accurately flows into the milk bottle, avoiding the risk of hot water spilling and scalding. After pouring the water, release the switch handle 4, and under the action of the valve plug 61's own gravity and the spring (if any) and other components, the valve stem 62 descends, and the valve plug 61 re-blocks the water outlet 52, restoring the sealed state of the container, and effectively maintaining the temperature of the internal liquid.
[0121] 2. Outdoor travel application scenarios
[0122] Adaptation to different containers: When traveling outdoors, you carry a non-original portable water bottle, the caliber of which is compatible with the mounting section 313 of the mounting body 31 of the split thermal insulation container of the present invention. The user can remove the combined spout 3 from the original kettle body 1 (by reversing the installation steps, such as rotating and unscrewing), and then install it on the portable water bottle. During installation, the stop block 315 of the mounting section 313 is also used to engage with the opening of the water bottle, and the annular stop ring 314 and the sealing ring 63 are used to ensure sealing and connection firmness.
[0123] After assembly, hot water or other drinks are put into the water bottle and the lid 2 is put on. The cap 23 of the lid 2 can prevent dust and other impurities from entering. During travel, when the user needs to drink water, according to the above-mentioned pouring operation mode, the drink can be conveniently poured out by pressing the switch handle 4 without worrying about water leakage or rapid temperature loss. Even in walking and bumpy outdoor environments, the liquid in the container can be effectively preserved due to the tight connection between the lid 2 and the container and the good sealing performance of the valve body assembly 6.
[0124] Portability and safety: The gripping portion 32 plays an important role in outdoor use. When the user walks with the container in hand or places it in a backpack side pocket, the connection assembly 7 (connecting block 71 and locking member 72) between the gripping portion 32 and the kettle body 1 ensures the stability of the connection between the two, preventing the spout or lid 2 from falling off due to shaking. Moreover, the curved design of the gripping portion 32 is convenient for the user to operate with one hand. When drinking water is needed, the user can quickly and safely hold the container to pour water, meeting the needs of outdoor travelers for portability and practicality.
[0125] 3. Application scenarios in office environment
[0126] Sharing by multiple people: In an office, the split insulation container is placed in a public tea room. The container can store hot water or coffee and other drinks in a large capacity for multiple colleagues to use. The design of the guide part 33 of the combined spout 3 allows different users to easily control the water flow when pouring water, avoiding the wet and messy desktop caused by multiple people using it.
[0127] For example, when a colleague finishes using the beverage, the switch handle 4 is closed and the water outlet 52 is sealed. When the next colleague uses the beverage, the temperature of the beverage in the container can still be maintained at a high level, thereby reducing the energy consumption of frequent heating.
[0128] Cleaning and maintenance: Since the present invention adopts a detachable structure, it is very convenient to clean. During regular cleaning, the upper cover 21 and the lower cover 22 of the pot cover 2 can be separated to clean the inside. The combined spout 3 can also be disassembled from the pot body 1 to clean the guide part 33 and other parts to prevent the accumulation of impurities such as scale from affecting the guide effect and hygiene. The pot body 1 itself can also be easily cleaned in a comprehensive manner, ensuring the long-term use hygiene of the container in the office environment, and providing employees with healthy and convenient beverage services.
