Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of drinking water adding equipment, in particular to a drinking water structure with a flavoring substance, a cover and a drinking water bottle. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of the pace of modern life, people's requirements for the health and diversity of beverages are increasing. Traditional drinking methods are often limited to boiled water. Although it is healthy and harmless, its monotonous and tasteless characteristics make it difficult to meet consumers' diverse needs for taste and drinking experience. This monotony not only reduces people's willingness to drink water, but may also cause individuals to turn to beverages containing sugar or other flavorings to make up for the lack of taste of boiled water, thereby increasing health risks, such as the incidence of chronic diseases such as obesity and diabetes. In order to meet this challenge, a series of technological innovations aimed at improving the drinking experience have appeared on the market in recent years. Among them, a more popular solution is to integrate a fragrance-enhancing structure in the bottle cap of the drinking container, especially using fragrance release technology to enhance the attractiveness of drinking water through olfactory stimulation and increase users' interest in drinking. This design not only enriches the flavor of drinking water, but also provides users with a more pleasant and personalized drinking experience without changing the water quality itself.

[0003] However, although the existing aroma enhancement structure has a certain aroma enhancement effect and meets the needs of consumers to a certain extent, there are still a series of application problems in the actual application process. First of all, the existing aroma enhancement structure generally adopts a fragrance ring, and the spices are stored in a ring-shaped hard shell, which is then sleeved on a soft bottle cap, and the external air enters the fragrance ring, and then enters the bottle cap, and then enters the cap in combination with the joint set by the cap to achieve aroma enhancement. However, in order to maintain the smoothness of the airway, a hard fragrance ring is required, and the soft bottle cap and the hard cap joint are matched at the same time. The tiny pores between the three must be fully aligned to meet the needs of the aroma enhancement effect. However, the stability of this complex assembly is poor. Whether it is normal use or accidental collision, it is easy to shift or partially fall off and separate, which not only causes poor air supply effect, but also may cause liquid to overflow in reverse and pollute the fragrance. During long-term use, this not only affects the drinking experience of consumers, but also may pose a potential threat to the sanitation and safety of drinking water. Since soft bottle caps are bound to deform during use, and may not be fully matched during installation, although many bayonet settings are currently used to reduce the difficulty of matching, the problem cannot be effectively solved, resulting in frequent maintenance and poor user experience. In addition, the aroma enhancement components are designed with materials of different characteristics, and the combination of soft and hard materials is greatly affected by material deformation, making the interface particularly prone to leakage. The reverse overflow of liquid will contaminate the aroma enhancement along the airway, further affecting the taste and flavor of the drinking water. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to overcome the problems in the prior art that the existing fragrance enhancement structure is easily displaced, resulting in poor fragrance enhancement effect and easy contamination of the structure.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is to provide a drinking structure with an aroma enhancer, comprising: a hollow shell, an absorption structure arranged on the shell, and a liquid channel running through the shell and the absorption structure, the shell comprising: a receiving cavity for placing the aroma enhancer, an air inlet connecting the receiving cavity and the outside, and an air outlet connecting the receiving cavity and the liquid channel. A connecting pipe section for connecting an external straw and the liquid channel is provided on the side of the shell away from the absorption structure, and a limiting structure is provided on the side of the connecting pipe section close to the absorption structure, and the limiting structure is used to limit the length of the external straw entering the liquid channel.

[0006] By setting the accommodating cavity for the aroma enhancer inside the shell combined with the suction structure, the two channels are connected in an integrated manner, which solves the problems of difficult alignment between the gas channel and the liquid channel during assembly of the existing flexible suction nozzle with an external aroma ring, and easy displacement during use, resulting in poor connection between the two channels, causing poor gas entry and liquid backflow. The stable connection between the gas channel and the liquid channel can be maintained under normal drinking and accidental collisions in daily use, reducing maintenance while avoiding the failure of the aroma ring due to improper connection, reducing costs while improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0007] The provision of the connecting pipe section simplifies the structure, allowing the aroma gas and liquid to be fully mixed in the liquid channel, while the provision of the limiting structure makes the installation of the straw more convenient. Since the mixture of the aroma gas and liquid is transferred from the original straw joint to the liquid channel, there is no need to consider the alignment problem. At the same time, the combination space of the gas and liquid is increased, avoiding interference and obstruction of the air outlet, and maintaining the smoothness of the circulation of the aroma-enhancing gas. Different from the prior art design in which the straw needs to be equipped with a straw joint, and the air inlet on the straw joint needs to be further matched with the air outlet during the assembly process, the present solution forms a connecting pipe section at the position where the liquid channel is connected to the outside by providing a table-shaped interface with a cross-section from large to small on one side of the shell, and at the same time uses the minimum cross-sectional size to form a limiting structure, thereby limiting the insertion depth of the straw and making it unnecessary for the thin tube to be re-aligned in the liquid channel, thereby achieving the desired function in a simple and clever way.

[0008] Furthermore, the shell includes: an upper shell and a lower shell, the suction structure is connected to the upper shell, and the upper shell and the lower shell are combined to form a receiving chamber to receive the flavoring material, so as to facilitate the installation and replacement of the flavoring material when needed. An upper connecting structure is provided in the upper shell, and a lower connecting structure is provided in the lower shell. One end of the upper connecting structure is connected to the suction structure, and the other end is nested in the lower connecting structure. The upper connecting structure and the lower connecting structure are mutually nested to form a conduit structure. The liquid channel is provided in the conduit structure, and the receiving chamber is separated from the liquid channel by the conduit structure to avoid mutual penetration of the flavoring material and the liquid, thereby improving the sealing performance, ensuring the purity and taste of the drinking water, and maintaining the freshness and effectiveness of the flavoring material. At the same time, the mutual nesting of the upper connecting structure and the lower connecting structure prolongs the length of the joint seam, thereby enhancing the waterproof sealing effect of the conduit structure as a whole.

[0009] Furthermore, the air inlet is arranged on the side of the shell, and / or on the top surface of the shell, and / or at the junction of the side and top surfaces of the shell, and the air outlet is arranged on the side of the duct structure away from the air inlet, the accommodating cavity surrounds the duct structure, and at least two guide channels are formed to connect the air inlet and the air outlet respectively, so that the gas can fully bring out the taste of the additive, and in a limited space, by increasing the distance between the air inlet and the air outlet, an effective air flow path can be formed, so that the external air flow can be more fully combined with the additive, thereby improving the addition efficiency, making the volatilization of the additive more uniform, and improving the durability and stability of the olfactory perception. A partition cavity is arranged around the upper connecting structure in the upper shell, and the nested interface formed by the upper connecting structure and the lower connecting structure is connected to the partition cavity. After assembly, the partition cavity forms an air barrier connected to the nested interface. This air barrier can further use its own gas pressure to improve the waterproof sealing effect of the duct structure, effectively avoiding the problem of liquid passing through the matching gap to contaminate the flavoring material.

[0010] Furthermore, the conduit structure forms a cylindrical rigid support in the shell, which meets the basic requirements of liquid transmission and can resist external pressure or impact. A matching plane is provided on one side of the conduit structure, and the air outlet is arranged on the matching plane, and a flexible sleeve is sleeved on the conduit structure, and the flexible sleeve matches the air outlet of the matching plane on the conduit structure. The setting of the matching plane is helpful for installation and positioning, and more importantly, it changes the direction of pulling the air outlet during the sleeve knotting process. The flexible sleeve is both a carrier of the unidirectional conduction structure and a sealing structure of the conduit structure. Therefore, the flexible sleeve needs to be expanded in the process of sealing the conduit structure, so as to produce a complete fit to the conduit structure. If the pulling force generated by this expansion acts on the curved surface, it is easy to cause deformation of the air inlet. Setting a plane at one end to carry the air inlet can effectively guide the pulling force after assembly, so that the air inlet only bears horizontal pulling. At the same time, a unidirectional conduction is formed from the accommodating cavity to the liquid channel, which further protects the drying of the accommodating cavity and prevents the liquid from entering the accommodating cavity, thereby extending the storage time of the flavoring material.

[0011] Furthermore, the flexible sleeve is an annular elastic member, one end of the flexible sleeve is connected to the upper shell, and the other end is connected to the lower shell. When the upper shell and the lower shell are assembled, the lower edge of the upper connecting structure abuts the inner ring, and the flexible sleeve forms a barrier from the outside of the outer ring, thereby closing the separated cavity and forming a sealed area, which further improves its sealing effect.

[0012] The flexible sleeve is specifically an elastic sealing ring, which includes: a planar segment that cooperates with the matching plane, and an arc segment connected to the planar segment at both ends. The design of the planar segment reduces the difficulty of processing the air outlet, and the combination of the planar segment and the arc segment solves the need for plane matching of the annular flexible sleeve.

[0013] A spherical self-sealing structure is provided on the plane section, and the air outlet is a conical channel. The cross-section of the conical channel close to the liquid channel is smaller than the cross-section on the side away from the liquid channel. The self-sealing structure matches the conical channel and is embedded in the conical channel. The self-sealing structure includes a self-closing incision. The conical channel and the incision cooperate to form a one-way conductive structure from the accommodating cavity to the liquid channel, so that the incision can only be opened to the side with a smaller cross-section (i.e., the direction of the liquid channel), and is difficult to open in the reverse direction, thereby further improving the sealing effect.

[0014] Furthermore, a flavoring material is provided in the receiving chamber to add a scent to the liquid, and an external connection structure is also provided on the lower shell. Through the external connection structure and the cover body matching the external connection structure, the shell can be quickly installed and replaced to accommodate more containers. The surface of the suction structure is provided with a ridge extending to one side of the air inlet, and the side of the suction structure away from the ridge is provided with a concave arc surface. The ridge and the arc surface form an ergonomic gripping part, which is convenient for users to rotate and install the drinking structure. At the same time, the ridge can also effectively strengthen the connection between the upper shell and the suction structure, and increase the overall strength of the shell. The concave arc surface forms a bulge on the back side, further enhancing the overall structural strength to resist bending due to external forces and prevent displacement and deformation of the air inlet. When an adsorption force is applied to the suction structure, a small part of the suction force will act on the air inlet, so that the external air enters the receiving chamber through the air inlet to bring out the fragrance of the flavoring material, and the scented air enters the liquid channel through the air outlet and flows to the suction structure through the liquid channel.

[0015] The second technical solution adopted by the present invention is to provide a lid for a drinking bottle, including a lid seat, and a drinking structure with a flavoring agent as described in the previous technical solution. By combining the drinking structure with the flavoring agent with the lid of the drinking bottle, the user can apply the drinking structure to various types of drinking bottles without any modification or customization of the bottle body, thereby improving its practicality and convenience. At the same time, the coordinated design of the lid seat and the drinking structure not only ensures the stability and reliability of the drinking structure during use, but also allows the user to easily assemble and replace it. The user only needs to simply install the drinking structure on the lid seat to achieve connection with the drinking bottle without complicated operations or tools. In addition, since the drinking structure and the lid are detachable, the user can easily change the taste and clean and maintain it, which is not only convenient to use, but also ensures hygiene and safety during use.

[0016] Furthermore, the cover seat includes a concave mounting position, and the drinking structure is arranged on the mounting position, so that the drinking structure can be embedded in the cover seat, which not only saves space, but also makes the connection between the drinking structure and the cover seat more firm, and can also increase the protection of the drinking structure to a certain extent. The cover seat also includes a connecting channel, which runs through the cover seat and connects to the liquid channel. A sealing ring is also arranged between the drinking structure and the cover seat to improve the sealing of the connection, which can not only prevent liquid leakage, but also ensure that drinking water can be stably transferred to the shell, thereby improving the transmission effect.

[0017] Furthermore, the side of the cover seat is provided with a concave sleeve position and an elastic sealing ring sleeved on the sleeve position, and a plurality of air channels are provided on the elastic sealing ring. By designing the concave sleeve position and the elastic sealing ring sleeved on the sleeve position, and providing a plurality of air channels on the elastic sealing ring, the balance of air pressure inside and outside the drinking bottle is achieved. This is particularly important when the user drinks or drinks continuously, because as the liquid in the bottle decreases, the air pressure in the bottle will gradually decrease, thereby increasing the difficulty of water absorption. The design of the air channel allows external air to enter the bottle through the air channel to supplement the air pressure reduced due to the reduction of liquid, making the water absorption process easier and smoother, while also avoiding problems such as liquid splashing or leakage caused by unbalanced air pressure.

[0018] The third technical solution adopted by the present invention is to provide a drinking bottle, including a bottle body and a connecting tube, and a lid of a drinking bottle as described in the second technical solution above, wherein the lid is covered on the bottle mouth of the bottle body, one end of the connecting tube is connected to the cover seat and connected to the liquid channel, and the other end extends into the bottle body.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: by adopting a design in which the upper shell and the lower shell are combined to form a accommodating cavity, and by nesting the upper connecting structure and the lower connecting structure to form a duct structure, the mutual infiltration of the flavoring agent and the liquid is effectively avoided, thereby ensuring the purity and taste of the drinking water, while maintaining the freshness and effectiveness of the flavoring agent. In addition, the setting of the air barrier further enhances the waterproof sealing effect of the duct structure and improves the overall performance of the product. In terms of enhancing the efficiency of the gas channel, the reasonable layout of the air inlet and outlet holes and the design of the guide channel enable the external airflow to be more fully combined with the flavoring agent, thereby improving the addition efficiency, making the volatilization of the flavoring agent more uniform, and enhancing the durability and stability of the olfactory perception.

[0020] By designing two or more guide channels that connect the air inlet and the air outlet respectively, the gas can fully bring out the flavor of the flavoring agent, and in a limited space, by increasing the distance between the air inlet and the air outlet, an effective airflow path is formed, which improves the addition efficiency, makes the volatilization of the flavoring agent more uniform, and improves the durability and stability of the olfactory experience. The duct structure forms a rigid support in the shell, which can resist external pressure or impact, avoids functional failure or safety hazards caused by deformation of the shell, and enhances the overall structural stability of the shell. The flexible sleeve mounted on the duct structure forms a conductive structure that connects the liquid channel in a one-way manner, preventing the liquid from flowing back into the containing cavity through the air outlet, which not only maintains the purity of the drinking water, but also extends the service life of the flavoring agent.

[0021] By combining the drinking structure with the flavoring material with the lid of the drinking bottle, the user can apply the drinking structure to various types of drinking bottles without any modification or customization of the bottle body, thereby improving its practicality and convenience. At the same time, the drinking structure and the lid are detachable, so the user can easily change the flavor and clean and maintain it. The side of the lid seat is provided with a concave sleeve position and an elastic sealing ring sleeved on the sleeve position. The elastic sealing ring is provided with a plurality of air channels, which realizes the balance of air pressure inside and outside the drinking bottle, making the water absorption process easier and smoother, and avoiding problems such as liquid splashing or leakage caused by unbalanced air pressure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The drawings of the present invention are only for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. In order to better illustrate the following embodiments, some parts of the drawings may be omitted, enlarged or reduced, and do not represent the size of the actual product; it is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions in the drawings may be omitted.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a drinking structure with flavoring material, including: a shell 100 and an absorption structure 101 arranged on the shell 100, and a liquid channel 102 that penetrates the shell 100 and the absorption structure 101. The shell 100 can be detachably divided into a hollow upper shell 120 and a hollow lower shell 130, and an upper connecting structure 121 is provided in the upper shell 120, and the upper shell 120, the absorption structure 101, and the upper connecting structure 121 are integrally formed. A lower connecting structure 131 is provided in the lower shell 130, and the lower shell 130 and the lower connecting structure 131 are integrally formed. The hollow upper shell 120 and the hollow lower shell 130 are tightly combined by means of threaded connection, snap connection, or socket connection, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the upper and lower parts are enclosed together to form a sealed annular accommodating chamber 103 inside the housing 100, and the accommodating chamber 103 is used to place the flavoring material. A connecting pipe section 104 for connecting an external straw and a liquid channel is provided on the side of the housing 100 away from the suction structure 101, and a limiting structure 105 is provided on the side of the connecting pipe section 104 close to the suction structure, and the limiting structure 105 is used to limit the length of the external straw entering the liquid channel 102.

[0043] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper connecting structure 121 is in the shape of a circular tube, and its lower edge extends to the middle of the air outlet 112. The lower connecting structure 131 is in the shape of a circular tube matching the upper connecting structure 121, and the lower connecting structure 131 includes an inner ring 143 and an outer ring 144 connected to each other, and the outer ring 144 is higher than the inner ring 143. The inner ring 143 abuts against the lower edge of the upper connecting structure 121, and the inner diameter of the upper connecting structure 121 is smaller than the inner diameter of the inner ring 143, so that the part of the upper connecting structure 121 protrudes into the liquid channel 102 to form a secondary limit of the straw. The inner wall of the outer ring 144 fits the outer wall of the upper connecting structure 121, so that the upper connecting structure 121 is nested in the lower connecting structure 131.

[0044] The interior of the conduit structure is designed to have a smooth inner wall to form a liquid channel 102, and the conduit structure separates the liquid channel 102 from the accommodating chamber 103. The housing 100 is provided with an air inlet 111 for connecting the accommodating chamber 103 and the outside, and the outer diameter of the air inlet 111 at the accommodating chamber 103 is larger than the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 103. The conduit structure is provided with an air outlet 112 for connecting the accommodating chamber 103 and the liquid channel 102. The housing 100 is made of food-grade high-strength plastic material.

[0045] There are at least one or more air inlet holes 111, and the air inlet holes 111 can be arranged on the side outside the housing chamber 103 of the housing 100, on the top surface outside the housing chamber 103 of the housing 100, or on the intersection of the side and top surfaces outside the housing chamber 103 of the housing 100. The shape of the air inlet holes 111 can be circular, oval, rectangular, strip, or waist-shaped, etc., which can be selected according to actual application needs. In this embodiment, there is one air inlet hole 111, which is in the shape of a strip and is arranged on the side outside the housing chamber 103 of the housing 100.

[0046] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the air outlet 112 is arranged on the side of the duct structure away from the air inlet 111, the accommodating chamber 103 surrounds the lower connecting structure 131, and at least two guiding channels are formed which are respectively connected to the air inlet 111 and the air outlet 112, so that the gas can travel as long as possible in the accommodating chamber 103, fully bring out the fragrance from the accommodating chamber 103 and then enter the liquid channel 102 from the air outlet 112.

[0047] The suction structure 101 includes a suction nozzle and a structural cavity. The suction nozzle is arranged at one end away from the upper shell 120 and forms a liquid suction port of the liquid channel 102. The structural cavity is connected to the upper shell 120. The upper end of the upper connecting structure 121 is connected to the suction nozzle, and the lower end of the upper connecting structure 121 cooperates with the lower connecting structure 131. A gap is left between the upper connecting structure 121 and the inner wall of the structural cavity, and the gap forms a separated cavity 122. The nested interface formed by the cooperation of the upper connecting structure 121 and the lower connecting structure 131 is connected to the separated cavity 122. The duct structure forms a cylindrical rigid support in the shell 100, a matching plane 132 is provided on one side of the duct structure, and the air outlet is arranged on the matching plane 112. A flexible sleeve 140 is sleeved on the duct structure, and the flexible sleeve 140 includes: a plane section 141 matching with the matching plane 132, and an arc section 142 connected to the plane section 141 end to end, and a spherical self-enclosed structure is provided on the plane section 141. The air outlet 112 is a conical channel, and the cross-section of the conical channel close to the liquid channel 102 is smaller than the cross-section on the side away from the liquid channel 102. The self-enclosed structure matches the conical channel and is embedded in the conical channel. The self-enclosed structure includes a self-closed incision 150, and the conical channel and the incision 150 cooperate to form a one-way conduction from the accommodating cavity 103 to the liquid channel 102. The flexible sleeve 140 is an annular elastic member, one end of the flexible sleeve 140 is connected to the upper connecting structure 121 of the upper shell 120, and the other end is connected to the lower connecting structure 131 of the lower shell 130. When the upper shell 120 and the lower shell 130 are assembled, the lower edge of the upper connecting structure 121 abuts the inner ring 143, and the flexible sleeve 140 forms a barrier from the outside of the outer ring 144. The height of the flexible sleeve 140 is equal to the height inside the accommodating cavity 103 after the upper and lower shells 130 are matched.

[0048] like Figure 8As shown, the conduction structure is formed by one side of the flexible sleeve 140 protruding into the air outlet 112, and a self-enclosed cutout 150 is provided on the conduction structure. The self-enclosed cutout 150 is designed as a cross cutout 150, and the accommodating cavity 103 is connected to the liquid channel 102 in a one-way manner through the cutout 150. When the user absorbs water through the suction structure 101, the external suction force acts on the cross cutout 150, and the cross cutout 150 opens by its own elasticity and allows gas (carrying the aroma of the aroma enhancer) to pass through, thereby realizing the one-way conduction function. When the user stops absorbing water, the cross cutout 150 uses its own elastic recovery to form a self-enclosed cutout 150 in a normal state, ensuring effective isolation between the aroma enhancer and the liquid channel 102.

[0049] The accommodating cavity 103 is provided with a flavoring substance, which may specifically be a solid flavoring bag, a flavoring ring or a flavoring particle, etc., and may be adjusted according to actual application requirements.

[0050] The lower shell 130 is also provided with an external connection structure 170 , which may be a thread, a buckle, an annular convex strip, an annular groove, a transition fit, etc., and may be adjusted according to actual application requirements. like Figure 2 As shown, a gripping portion 110 is further provided between the suction structure 101 and the shell 100, and a ridge 1011 extending toward the air inlet side is provided on the surface of the suction structure 101, and a concave arc surface 1012 is provided on the side of the suction structure 101 away from the ridge 1011, and the ridge 1011 and the arc surface 1012 form the gripping portion 110. When an adsorption force is applied to the suction structure 101, a small part of the suction force will act on the air inlet 111, so that external air enters the accommodating cavity through the air inlet 111, brings out the aroma of the flavoring substance, and enters the liquid channel 102 through the air outlet 112.

[0051] Example 2

[0052] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, this embodiment provides a lid for a drinking bottle, comprising: a lid base 200, and a drinking structure with a flavoring substance as described in Embodiment 1, which is coupled to the lid base 200. The lid base 200 is circular or in other shapes that conform to the size of the bottle mouth, and its edge is designed with a matching structure that is tightly connected to the bottle mouth, which can be a thread, a buckle, a convex strip, a groove or a transition fit, etc., and can be adjusted according to the actual bottle mouth structure to ensure sealing and stability.

[0053] like Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12As shown, a concave mounting position 201 is provided in the middle of the cover base 200, the depth and diameter of the mounting position 201 are adapted to the drinking structure with flavoring material described in Example 1, and a docking structure 202 that passes through the cover base 200. The docking structure 202 is a cylindrical channel that passes through the bottom of the cover base 200, and its diameter matches the liquid channel 102 in the drinking structure to ensure that the two can be seamlessly connected. One end of the docking structure 202 opens at the bottom of the mounting position 201 and is connected to the liquid channel 102, and the other end extends to the bottom of the cover base 200.

[0054] The drinking structure is the core component of the lid, and its shell 100 part (including the upper shell 120 and the lower shell 130) is installed inside the lid seat 200, and a stable connection is achieved by means of threads, buckles or sleeves. The top of the upper shell 120, that is, the installation position 201 of the suction structure 101, is slightly higher than the surface of the lid seat 200, which is convenient for users to directly operate, and the lower shell 130 is close to the bottom of the lid seat 200. A sealing ring 210 is also provided between the drinking structure and the lid seat 200. A sealing groove for placing the sealing ring 210 is provided at the bottom of the lid seat 200. The sealing ring 210 is an annular elastic sealing ring 210, and the sealing ring 210 is arranged around the docking structure 202. At the same time, there is a gap between the shell 100 and the lid seat 200 to facilitate air intake at the air inlet.

[0055] The edge of the installation position 201 is designed with a slight inclination or chamfer to facilitate the installation and removal of the drinking structure.
