Detailed implementation manners

[0049] The following will describe in detail the implementation manners of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments, so as to fully understand how the present invention uses technical means to solve technical problems and the implementation process of achieving technical effects. It should be noted that these specific descriptions are only to make those of ordinary skill in the art more easily and clearly understand the present invention, rather than a limiting interpretation of the present invention; and as long as there is no conflict, each embodiment in the present invention and each feature in each embodiment can be combined with each other, and the formed technical solutions are all within the protection scope of the present invention

[0050] It should be understood that although terms such as first and second may be used to describe components etc. in the embodiments of the present invention, these components etc. should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish components etc. from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the embodiments of the present invention, "first" can also be referred to as "second", and similarly, "second" can also be referred to as "first", such as the first protrusion, the second protrusion, the first adjustment handle, the second adjustment handle; other component serial number limitations are similar. These components with different serial number limitations can be set to the same structure or different structures according to the actual implementation requirements of the embodiments.

[0051] The technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments:

[0052] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a water cup, and the water cup includes:

[0053] A water control assembly for the water cup, and the water control assembly is used to adjust the amount of water flowing out of the water cup to the water outlet 174. For example, the size of the water outlet pipe connected to the water outlet is adjusted through the water control assembly, or part of the water outlet pipe is blocked, or the amount of water flowing into the water outlet pipe is adjusted; these different implementation manners will be further described in detail below in combination with different embodiments.

[0054] An upper cover 170, on which a water outlet 174 and a water control assembly installation part are provided, and the control assembly installation part includes an adjustment shaft socket part, which facilitates the installation of the water control assembly on the upper cover 170 of the water cup.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment of the present application, the water control assembly is detachably installed on the upper cover 170 of the water cup; and the upper cover 170 and the water cup body 110 are generally in threaded fit or snap fit; after the upper cover 170 is opened, the water control assembly can be conveniently taken out for cleaning. Of course, the present application is not limited to this.

[0056] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown, a pair of handles 120 are also provided on the water cup, which is convenient for children to hold the water cup better. The water outlet 174 and the bottom of the outer side of the upper cover are surrounded by an arc surface 176; the arc surface 176 is made of a hard material. Among them, the hard material has a greater hardness compared to the straw material in the prior art, and it is not easy to deform when a child bites the water outlet 174 and the corresponding arc surface 176; the specific material can be directly made of plastic. The specific radian of the arc surface 176 can be an inclined surface or a curved surface, or a combination of both. Regarding the specific structure of the curved surface 176, its specific shape can be equivalent to surrounding the entire water outlet 174 and the arc surface 176 into a "duckbill shape", but the present application is not limited to this and no specific limitation is made. Taking the duckbill-shaped water outlet method as an example, compared with the traditional cup mouth (such as the straw type), the duckbill-shaped water outlet itself limits the maximum peak of the flow rate. At the same time, when a child drinks water from the duckbill-shaped water outlet, the water can be aligned with the oral cavity and the liquid will not enter the nasal cavity; the water outlet surrounded by the arc surface 176 can control the flow direction of water more precisely because it controls the flow direction of water 360°.

[0057] In the preferred implementation manner of this embodiment, the arc-shaped sealing portion formed by surrounding the arc surface 176 contacts the inner part of the oral cavity, and the arc-shaped sealing portion is set as a water flow blocking portion, and the water in the water cup only flows to the inner part of the oral cavity through the water outlet. In this way, a surrounding "duckbill shape" is formed. Compared with the "duckbill shape" formed by only setting a partial arc surface in the prior art, it can prevent water from splashing to the unenclosed part during the process of water flowing out of the upper cover from the water cup, and it can also make it easier for a child's upper forehead to contact the arc surface, which is a better transition for children from a straw water cup and can promote the perception of the upper forehead, which is more helpful for children's development.

[0058] As Figure 2 、 Figure 7 As shown, in the present application, the water cup further includes: a water volume adjustment indication portion 172 located on the upper cover 170 of the water cup. The water volume adjustment indication portion 173 corresponds to the position of the first adjustment handle 140. Specifically, it corresponds to the protrusion in the hand-gripping portion 146 of the adjustment handle 140. In this way, the information about the water volume size is exactly opposite to the protrusion in the hand-gripping portion 146. For example, words such as "large, medium, small" can be indicated on the water volume adjustment indication portion 172, and arrows indicating the water volume adjustment direction can be added; in this way, the water flow rate corresponding to the water outlet of the water cup can be clearly indicated.

[0059] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2As shown in the figure, the water cup provided in the present application further includes: a sealing cover 130 for sealing the water outlet 174 in the sealing upper cover. A sealing port 132 is provided on the sealing cover 132, which abuts against the water outlet. After the sealing cover 130 is closed, the inner side of the sealing port 132 abuts against the water outlet 174, so that water will not leak out. The sealing port 132 can be a flat surface or a sealing ring that extends into the water outlet 174. One end of the sealing cover 130 can rotate around the rotation axis 150. After the sealing cover 130 is opened, it will also be connected to the water cup. And a lock 162 is provided at the other end of the sealing cover 130, which cooperates with the locking part 164 on the upper cover 170 of the water cup. Regarding the cooperation method of the lock 16 and the locking part 164, it can be designed with reference to existing children's water cups and will not be further explained here.

[0060] The water control component for the water cup will be further explained below in combination with the following embodiments:

[0061] Embodiment 1

[0062] As Figures 3 - 13 shown, the water control component for the water cup provided in this embodiment includes:

[0063] A water volume adjustment component configured to cooperate with the water outlet pipe of the water cup; the position of the water volume adjustment component relative to the water outlet pipe can be moved, and based on the position change between the water volume adjustment component and the water outlet pipe, the water flow rate corresponding to the water outlet pipe is adjusted. In this embodiment, the cooperation between the water volume adjustment component and the water outlet pipe of the water cup means that the water volume adjustment component abuts against a certain part of the water outlet pipe or is located inside the water outlet pipe to control the flow rate of water flowing through the water outlet pipe; specifically, it can be determined in combination with the specific structure in different embodiments. And the water outlet pipe mentioned in this embodiment refers to the part similar to a pipe between the part where water flows out from inside the water cup and the water outlet; the specific structure of the water outlet pipe can also be combined with different specific embodiments, and its pipe structure and pipe position are respectively set differently; and the specific structure of the water volume adjustment component will also change in combination with different embodiments. The main function of the water volume adjustment component is to be able to move, and the moving methods include but are not limited to rotation.

[0064] The first adjustment handle 140 is connected to the water volume adjustment part. One end of the first adjustment handle 140 is provided with a hand-gripping part 146. The first adjustment handle 140 further includes an adjustment shaft connected to the hand-gripping part (including the end part 142, the clamping part 143, the first protrusion 144, the cylindrical part 148, and the second protrusion 149 mentioned below). The hand-gripping part 146 is located outside the upper cover 170 of the water cup. The water volume adjustment component (for example, the water control partition plate mentioned below) is located inside the water cup. The adjustment shaft is connected to the water volume adjustment component. The hand-gripping part 146 receives the action of an external force, and through the adjustment shaft, controls the displacement change of the water volume adjustment component. Among them, the first adjustment handle 140 mentioned in this embodiment is not limited to the structure of "hand" shape, but there is a structure on it that allows the hand to grasp it more conveniently. For example, the hand-gripping part 146 is provided with a protrusion extending upward from the middle of the plane in the middle, so that the hand can easily hold this protrusion and cause the first adjustment handle 140 to generate displacement, such as the rotation mentioned in this embodiment. In other embodiments, it can also be set to facilitate up and down movement.

[0065] In this way, during the process of rotating or pushing down the hand-gripping part 146, the force can be transmitted to the water volume adjustment component connected to the adjustment shaft. The water volume adjustment component can adjust the water volume allowed to flow through the water outlet pipe, so as to achieve the purpose of adjusting the water flow rate corresponding to the water outlet pipe.

[0066] As Figures 3 - 6 shown, in this embodiment, the water volume adjustment component includes the first water control partition plate 210 (hereinafter directly referred to as the water control partition plate in this embodiment). The water control partition plate 210 cooperates with the water outlet pipe of the water cup (the part extending from the water outlet 174 into the water cup and allowing water to flow through; for example Figure 6 the pipe surrounded by the inner wall extending vertically downward from the water outlet). The water control partition plate 210 is provided with a circulation part and a blocking part. The water control partition plate 210 is fixedly connected to the adjustment shaft. During the rotation around the axis of the adjustment shaft, the dimensions of the circulation part and the blocking part in the water control partition plate 210 cooperating with the water outlet pipe of the water cup are adjusted; that is, it is adjusted whether the circulation part is located below the water outlet pipe or the blocking part is located below the water outlet pipe, and the dimensions (such as the area size) of the circulation part and the blocking part respectively located below the water outlet pipe; as Figure 12 、 Figure 13 shown, by adjusting which position (circulation part or blocking part) of the water control partition plate 210 contacts the extension arm below the water outlet pipe, the diameter of the water flow allowed at the water outlet can be determined; for example, Figure 12 when the blocking part contacts the extension arm below the water outlet pipe, the water cannot flow out, Figure 13 when the circulation part is directly opposite to the extension arm below the water outlet pipe, the water can flow out; when the circulation part and the blocking part respectively have part in contact with the extension arm below the water outlet pipe, the specific water output can be determined according to the size of the circulation part directly opposite to the extension arm below the water outlet pipe.

[0067] TakeFigures 3 - 13 In the illustrated embodiment, a water outlet pipe 190 is provided corresponding to the lower part of the water outlet 174. The water outlet pipe 190 is a hollow pipe extending from the water outlet into the water cup, and at least a part of the hollow pipe is located inside the upper cover 179; the water in the water cup flows through the water outlet pipe 190 to the water outlet. It should be noted that for other embodiments, for example, Figure 14 , Figure 15 , Figure 16 In, the water outlet pipe includes, in addition to the hollow pipe, a part that restricts the water flow inside the water cup; Figure 17 In, the water outlet pipe includes, in addition to the hollow pipe, a deformable hose. However, at the connection of the water outlet, a water outlet pipe surrounded by the hollow pipe is provided, which can prevent the water flow from suddenly increasing or splashing after the water flows out; and it is better for water volume control, and it will not be out of control after the water volume inside the water cup is well controlled.

[0068] With the above structure, the water in the water cup can only flow out to the water outlet through the water outlet pipe, so that the adjustment handle for adjusting the water flow will not directly have water flowing out, which avoids the contact between the water and the hand-touching part corresponding to the hand-gripping part, keeps the water quality clean, and during normal drinking, the water will not flow to the hand-gripping part of the adjustment handle.

[0069] In the preferred embodiment of this embodiment, the water outlet pipe includes a hollow extension part extending from the water outlet 174 of the water cup into the water cup (for example Figure 12 the hollow cylinder located below the water outlet 174 in ), and the end of the hollow extension part abuts against the water control partition 210.

[0070] As Figure 9 , Figure 10 shown, in this embodiment, the circulation part includes a first through hole 214, a second through hole 216, a third through hole 218 located on the water control partition 210 and a notch 219 located at the edge of the partition (of course, only one of the through holes and the notch can be selected), and the blocking part includes a partition on the water control partition that can block the water flow. The center of the water control partition 210 is a hollow part through which the adjustment shaft can pass, and this hollow part is set as a non-circular first through hole. An axially extending part (i.e., the first protrusion 144) corresponding to the shape of the first through hole is provided on the adjustment shaft, and the water volume adjustment part is fixedly connected to the axially extending part in the adjustment shaft through the first through hole. Specifically, a hollow part 212 extending downward from the top is provided on the water control partition 210, so that the adjustment shaft can pass through the water control partition 210, and a "D"-shaped opening 217 is provided at the lower end of the water control partition. As Figure 6 , Figure 8 shown, a first protrusion 144 in the shape of a "D" is also provided on the first adjustment handle 140; thus, under the rotation action of the rotation shaft in the hand-gripping part 146, the water control partition will not rotate idly.

[0071] As Figures 3 - 8 shown, below the hand-grip portion 146 of the first adjusting handle 140 further includes: a cylindrical portion 148 that mates with the adjusting shaft socket portion 178 in the upper cover 170, and a second protrusion 149 (a radially extending ring) that mates with the hollow portion 212 on the water control partition 210. The second protrusion 149 also abuts against the upper surface of the "D"-shaped opening 217 to play a sealing role; and a sealing ring 230 is further provided above the second protrusion 149 to further prevent water from leaking along the adjusting shaft to the outside of the upper cover.

[0072] As Figure 9 、 Figure 10 shown, in this embodiment, the water control partition 210 is provided with a plurality of through holes (first through hole 214, second through hole 216, third through hole 218) with different sizes, and each through hole (first through hole 214, second through hole 216, third through hole 218) can be rotated to a position below the end of the water outlet pipe. Thus, by rotating the first adjusting handle 140 to rotate the adjusting shaft, the water flow can pass through holes of different sizes to control the closing, small water volume, medium water volume, and large water volume of the water.

[0073] As Figures 3 - 8 、 Figure 11 shown, in the implementation manner of this embodiment, the water control assembly for the water cup further includes an anti-disengagement portion 220. The anti-disengagement portion 220 is snap-connected to the adjusting shaft, and the water volume adjusting member (such as the water control partition 210) is located between the hand-grip portion 146 and the anti-disengagement portion 220. Specifically, a snap-connection portion 143 (U-shaped column) is provided above the end portion 142 of the adjusting shaft, and the anti-disengagement portion 220 has a second notch 222, which also corresponds to a U-shape, and the size of the end portion is larger than that of the U-shaped portion; thus, the anti-disengagement portion 220 can prevent the first adjusting handle 140 and the water control partition 210 from separating during the normal use of the water cup.

[0074] By adopting the above technical solution provided by this embodiment, by providing an adjusting handle on the outside of the upper cover, the movement (or rotation) of the handle located on the outside of the upper cover can be adjusted without opening the cup body, and the displacement between the lower water volume adjusting member and the water outlet pipe is adjusted by the linkage of the adjusting shaft, so as to easily adjust the water volume at the water outlet of the water cup. Further, the position of the hand-grip portion in the water volume adjusting member is not in direct contact with the drinking water, which is clean and hygienic, and the combination method between the entire water control assembly and the upper cover of the water cup is simple, and it can be easily disassembled and convenient for cleaning.

[0075] Embodiment Two

[0076] Based on Embodiment One, in this embodiment, the water volume adjustment method in the water control assembly for the water cup is different from that in Embodiment One, but the structures of other components on the water cup can be the same; details are not described herein again.

[0077] AsFigure 14 , Figure 15 As shown in Figure 15 , in this embodiment, the water volume adjustment part includes a first partition plate 250. The two end parts of the first partition plate 250 are directly in contact with the side wall of the water cup body, so that water can only flow out through the through hole in the middle part to the water outlet. In this embodiment, the hollow part of the first partition plate 250 itself also serves as part of the water outlet pipe. A film valve 252 is arranged in the water outlet pipe. The film valve 252 cooperates with the adjustment shaft. A ring-shaped abutting part is sleeved or integrally formed on the adjustment shaft. The radial dimension of the ring-shaped part is larger than the dimension of the film valve 252 in the axial direction. The size of the corresponding water flow opening of the film valve is adjusted by the adjustment shaft. For example, in this embodiment, one side of the film valve 252 is fixed on the water control partition plate 250, and the other side is a free end. In this way, water can pass through the through hole 256 on the side wall of the water control partition plate 250, pass through the film valve 252, and flow to the water outlet pipe below the water outlet 174 (as Figure 15 the arrow direction in Figure 15 ).

[0078] An elastic member (such as a spring) 254 is arranged below the film valve, which can open the film valve 252 to facilitate the outflow of water. However, by pressing down the second adjustment handle 240, the ring-shaped abutting part 242 ( Figure 14 or Figure 15 the black part in Figure 15 ) on the adjustment shaft seals the film valve 252, and the more it is pressed down, the more the film valve 252 seals with the edge of the first partition plate 250 until it is completely sealed. Of course, a locking part (such as the cooperation between the groove on the side wall of the upper cover and the protrusion on the side wall of the adjustment shaft) can also be set to cooperate with the second adjustment handle 240 to lock the pressed position after the second adjustment handle 240 is pressed down. Of course, the film valve 252 is not limited to being fixed on one side, and can also be fixed around and open in the middle. The specific form of the film valve 252 can be made of silica gel, but the specific material and structure of this embodiment are not limited thereto.

[0079] Embodiment Three

[0080] This embodiment is also based on Embodiment One. The water volume adjustment method in the water control assembly of the water cup is different from that in Embodiment One, but the structures of other parts on the water cup can be the same; details are not described herein again.

[0081] As Figure 16 shown in Figure 16 , in this embodiment, similar to Embodiment Two, the hollow side wall of the second partition plate 260 is also set as a part of the water outlet pipe. The side wall of this part of the water outlet pipe is provided with water outlet holes 262. The water volume adjustment part includes a sealing part 264 connected to the adjustment shaft (for example, Figure 16The black part in it, the sealing ring 264 made of silica gel, is sleeved on the adjusting shaft). By adjusting the position change between the sealing part 264 and the water outlet hole, the size of the water outlet hole sealed by the sealing ring 264 can be determined, and in this way, the size of the water flow hole corresponding to the water outlet hole can also be controlled; thus, the water flow rate at the water outlet of the water cup can be adjusted.

[0082] Embodiment 4

[0083] This embodiment is also based on Embodiment 1. The water volume adjustment method in the water control component of the water cup is different from that in Embodiment 1, but the structures of other components on the water cup can be the same; details are not described here again.

[0084] As Figure 17 shown, in this embodiment, the water volume adjustment part includes a second water control partition 410. The second water control partition 410 is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the adjusting shaft (i.e., the radial direction) with different radial dimensions (for example, Figure 17 the inclined plane in it, or it can also be a notch similar to that in Embodiment 1, or an arc surface with other shapes); a deformable hose 180 (for example, a material and structure similar to the straw in an existing children's water cup) is arranged at the end of the water outlet pipe below the water outlet 174. The deformable hose 180 is sleeved on the side wall of the pipe integrally formed with the water outlet; the adjusting handle 140 in this embodiment can be set to be the same as that in Embodiment 1. The second water control partition 410 moves along the radial direction of the adjusting shaft to adjust the deformation amount of the deformable hose, that is, by changing the extrusion force of the edge of the second water control partition 410 on the deformable hose 180, the water flow rate allowed by the deformable hose 180 is adjusted, so that the water flow rate corresponding to the water outlet pipe can be adjusted.

[0085] Of course, this embodiment can also be arranged such that a plurality of different deformable hoses are respectively connected to the water outlet pipe below the water outlet 174, and then whether each deformable hose is allowed to supply water to the water outlet pipe or the water supply volume is respectively controlled; thus, the water output corresponding to the water outlet 174 of the water cup is adjusted.

[0086] It should be noted that the above-mentioned various different water volume adjustment methods in this embodiment can also be combined with each other to form more water volume adjustment methods; these new combination methods also belong to the protection scope of this application.

[0087] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only the best embodiment of the present invention and does not impose any formal limitation on the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make many possible changes and simple substitutions to the technical solution of the present invention by using the above-disclosed methods and technical contents within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
