[0035] As Figures 1A to 2BAs shown in the drawings, the embodiment of the present application provides a cup cover 1, comprising: a main cover body 10 and a cover side wall 20 surrounding the main cover body 10 along the periphery of the main cover body 10. The main cover body 10 is an inverted cylinder, comprising a top surface 11 and a side wall 12, and the top surface 11 is provided with a connected suction hole and a direct drinking hole; wherein the suction hole is used for inserting a straw to drink the beverage in the cup, and the direct drinking hole is used for directly drinking the beverage in the cup. The suction hole is covered with a first sealing part 30, and the direct drinking hole is covered with a second sealing part 40; a separation line 13 is arranged between the first sealing part 30 and the second sealing part 40, for separating the first sealing part 30 and the second sealing part 40. The size, shape and position of the suction hole and the direct drinking hole on the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10 can be set as required, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitations thereon.

[0036] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1A and Figure 1B The second sealing part 40 and the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10 are provided with a cutting line 15, so that the second sealing part 40 and the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10 are connected through multiple connection points; a part of the first sealing part 30 is connected with the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10, and the rest of the first sealing part 30 is provided with a cutting line 15 between the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10, so that the rest of the first sealing part 30 and the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10 are connected through multiple connection points. In this embodiment, the first sealing part 30 is connected with the top surface 11 through a connecting part 16, and the size of the connecting part 16 can be set as required, and the connecting part 16 is usually arranged at the farthest end of the first sealing part 30 opposite to the separation line 13. The rest of the first sealing part 30 and the second sealing part 40 are provided with a cutting line 15 between the top surface 11, so that the rest of the first sealing part 30 and the second sealing part 40 and the top surface 11 are connected through multiple connection points. As shown in the drawings, Figure 4 and Figure 5A , Figure 5B Through the cutting line 15, the user can conveniently use the straw 5 to open the first sealing part 30 along the cutting line 15, and enter or exit the cup body from the suction hole (see Figure 4 ), or open the second sealing part 40 along the cutting line 15 (see Figure 5A ), and then tear off the second sealing part 40 (see Figure 5B ), so as to completely open the direct drinking hole, so that the user can directly drink the beverage in the cup through the direct drinking hole.

[0037] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2A and Figure 2BAs shown, the side wall part 12 of the main cover body 10 abuts against the inner wall of the cover side wall 20, and the bottom of the cover side wall 20 is inwardly folded to wrap the side wall part 12 of the main cover body 10, i.e. the inwardly folded part of the bottom of the cover side wall 20 sandwiches the side wall part 12 of the main cover body 10 to form a three-layer structure. The inwardly folded part of the bottom of the cover side wall 20 completely wraps the side wall part 12, i.e. the end of the inwardly folded part of the bottom of the cover side wall 20 abuts against the inner wall of the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10. The upper edge of the cover side wall 20 is outwardly curved to form a curled edge part 21 to strengthen the strength of the cover side wall 20.

[0038] As shown in Figure 2B , an inwardly protruding locking protrusion 14 is arranged on the inner wall of the side wall part 12 of the main cover body 10, and when the cup cover 1 is covered on the open end of the cup body, the locking protrusion 14 plays a role of fixing the open end of the cup body in the cup cover 1. The part of the cover side wall 20 that is inwardly folded to wrap the side wall part 12 is also correspondingly inwardly protruded due to the inwardly protruding locking protrusion 14, and the protruding shape is the same as that of the locking protrusion 14. The cross section of the locking protrusion 14 can be semicircular or trapezoidal, so that the locking protrusion 14 and the inner wall of the adjacent side wall part 12 form a slope-shaped guide surface; so that when the cup cover 1 is covered on the open end of the cup body, the open end of the cup body is facilitated to pass over the locking protrusion 14 and enter the space between the locking protrusion 14 and the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10 to be fixed in the cup cover 1. The shape, size and position of the locking protrusion 14 on the side wall part 12 can be set as needed, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitation thereon. The included angle between the side wall part 12 and the top surface 11 of the main cover body 10 can be set as needed, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitation thereon.

[0039] As shown in Figure 3A and Figure 3B , in a specific embodiment, the height of the side wall part 12 of the main cover body 10 is 6 mm, the cross section of the locking protrusion 14 is semicircular with a radius of 1.5 mm, the lower edge of the locking protrusion 14 is 2 mm away from the bottom end of the side wall part 12, and the highest point of the inwardly protruded part of the cover side wall 20 that is inwardly folded to wrap the side wall part 12 is 0.3 mm higher than the protruded part. The main cover body 10 is conical with a large upper part and a small lower part, and the side wall part 12 is inwardly inclined at an included angle of 5° with respect to the axis of the top surface 11.

[0040] In an alternative embodiment, as shown in Figure 6A and Figure 6BAs shown, the cup cover 1 further comprises a holder 3 sleeved on the outer wall of the cup body 2, and the holder 3 is connected with the main cover body 10 through a connecting part 4. The holder 3 has a ring structure with the same shape as the cup body 2 (the cup body 2 is usually a taper with a large upper part and a small lower part, so the holder 3 is also a taper with a large lower part and a small upper part), and the holder 3 is sleeved on the cup body 2 from the bottom of the cup body 2. The size of the holder 3 can be determined according to the position where the holder 3 is to be clamped on the cup body 2. The holder 3 can be made of paper material, and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this. The connecting part 4 is a connecting component for connecting the holder 3 and the cup cover 1, one end of which is engaged with the side wall of the holder 3, and the other end of which is engaged with the cover side wall 20 of the cup cover 1. The connecting part 4 can be made of paper material, and is engaged with the holder 3 and the cup cover 1 by ultrasonic engagement, heat sealing, adhesion, etc., and the embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on this.

[0041] In an alternative embodiment, as shown in Figure 7A and Figure 7B The holder 3 has a ring structure opposite to the shape of the cup body 2 (the cup body 2 is a taper with a large upper part and a small lower part, and the holder 3 is a taper with a small upper part and a large lower part).

[0042] In an alternative embodiment, as shown in Figure 8 The holder 3 is provided with an opening part 301, which functions as a handle.

[0043] By providing the holder 3, the cup cover 1 can be prevented from being accidentally separated from the cup body 2, and the use convenience of the cup cover 1 is improved. The holder 3 also enables the user to hold the cup body 2 even when the beverage in the cup body 2 is very hot, and can also play a role in keeping the beverage in the cup body 2 warm. In addition, by providing the holder 3, when the user needs to remove the cup cover 1 from the cup body 2 in some cases, the cup cover 1 can be placed on the holder 3, avoiding the pollution of the cup cover 1 caused by directly placing the cup cover 1 on a table or other objects, or the pollution of the table surface caused by the beverage attached to the inner wall of the cup cover.

[0044] In an alternative embodiment, a convex-concave structure can be provided on the surface of the holder 3, for example, by stamping or embossing, and / or coating with a non-slip agent, so as to increase the firmness of the fixation between the holder 3 and the cup body 2.

[0045] The main lid body 10 and the lid side wall 20 can be made of a paper material.

[0046] Embodiments of the present application also provide a cup, as shown in Figure 6B comprising a cup body 2 having an open end and a cup lid 1 as described above covering the open end of the cup body 2.

[0047] The cup body 2 can be made of a paper material. As the paper material, it is only required to contain at least a cellulose component, and the content thereof is not particularly limited. The paper material is a degradable material. Various water-resistant papers can also be used, and a coating layer can also be provided on the outer surface of the paper material. As the coating layer, a film or a coating agent can be used. As the film, polyvinyl chloride, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer, polyethylene terephthalate, cellophane, polypropylene, nylon, polyethylene, polyvinylidene chloride, polymethylpentene, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, or the like can be used. As the film, a biodegradable film such as polylactic acid is preferably used.

[0048] In an alternative embodiment, two cup lids 1 are stacked to cover the open end of the cup body 2. When the user is about to leave with the cup while drinking the beverage in the cup (i.e. the sip hole or the straight drink hole has been opened), as shown in Figure 9A and Figure 9B two cup lids 1 are stacked to cover the open end of the cup body 2, and the sip hole and / or the straight drink hole of the two cup lids 1 are staggered, the second cup lid 1 can prevent the beverage in the cup body 2 from spilling out and also has a heat retaining effect.

[0049] In addition, for a cup to be delivered, as shown in Figure 10A and Figure 10B two cup lids 1 are stacked to cover the open end of the cup body 2, and the sip hole and / or the straight drink hole of the two cup lids 1 are staggered, the second cup lid 1 can prevent the beverage in the cup body 2 from spilling out and also has a heat retaining effect.
