Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of daily necessities, and particularly relates to a container lid and a container having the container lid. Background Art

[0002] In daily life, in order to facilitate the storage of objects, the types of containers are increasing, such as water cups, which are suitable for storing soup, easy to carry, and very popular. At present, water cups with straws can be suitable for athletes, infants, and patients lying in bed. When the water cup is not in use, how to block the straw to prevent leakage is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The main purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a container lid and a container that can selectively block a straw.

[0004] For the above purpose, the present disclosure provides the following technical solutions:

[0005] In one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a container lid, the container lid includes a lid body, a nozzle module, and a button module. The lid body is provided with a nozzle mounting hole extending along the axial direction of the lid body; the nozzle module includes a nozzle, and the nozzle is slidably disposed in the nozzle mounting hole to selectively protrude from the top surface of the lid body. A nozzle hook groove is recessed on the side wall of the nozzle; the button module includes a button body, and the button body is provided with a button hook matching the nozzle hook groove, and the button hook can selectively engage in the nozzle hook groove.

[0006] The container lid provided by the present disclosure includes a lid body, a nozzle module, and a button module. By driving the button body, the combination of the nozzle hook groove and the button hook can be controlled, so that the nozzle can be controlled to protrude from the lid body for convenient use.

[0007] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the button module further includes a button lock. When the button lock is in the unlocked position, the button body can move relative to the nozzle to disengage the button hook from the nozzle hook groove; when the button lock is in the locked position, the button hook engages in the nozzle hook groove. With such a setting, by providing a button lock, the accidental disengagement of the button hook from the nozzle hook groove can be avoided, thereby improving the safety of using the container lid.

[0008] Optionally, the button body includes a mounting base, a flanging of the mounting base, and a button protrusion. A button through-hole for the suction nozzle to pass through is provided in the middle of the mounting base. The button protrusion is provided at the radially outer end of the side wall of the button through-hole, and the button hook is provided at the radially outer end of the side wall of the button through-hole. With such a setting, the button body is radially limited by the suction nozzle, and the structure of the button body is simpler and easier to manufacture.

[0009] Further, the locking position is above the unlocking position. The button body further includes a flanging of the mounting base. The flanging of the mounting base is provided at the radially outer end of the mounting base and protrudes downward from the bottom wall of the mounting base. The button lock is provided with a limiting groove with an upward opening. The flanging of the mounting base extends into the limiting groove, and the lower end of the flanging of the mounting base is spaced from the bottom of the limiting groove, so that the button lock slides up and down between the locking position and the unlocking position. The lock stop portion can be a protrusion provided on the cover body. With such a setting, the structure of the container cover is simpler, and the manufacturing cost is reduced to a certain extent.

[0010] Specifically, the cover body further includes a lock stop portion. The lock stop portion is located radially inside the locking position. When the button lock is in the locking position, the inner side of the button lock fits against the radially outer end edge of the lock stop portion. With such a setting, the button body is in direct contact with the button lock. When the button lock is horizontally pressed, the button body can be driven by a radial driving force to move. The structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0011] In another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the button through-hole is an oval hole, and the long axis of the button through-hole extends parallel to the radial direction of the cover body. With such a setting, the button through-hole is an oval hole, so that the suction nozzle can slide in the button through-hole, that is, the button through-hole provides a guiding function for the movement of the suction nozzle, and the suction nozzle can slide smoothly relative to the button body.

[0012] Specifically, the button module may further include a boss fixed to the cover body. The boss is arranged in the middle of the oval hole in the radial direction of the cover body. The button module further includes a lock spring. The lock spring is arranged in the button through-hole and is pressed between the radially outer side wall of the button through-hole and the boss. With such a setting, the button module can include a lock spring to provide a reset pressure for the button body, so as to facilitate the reset of the button body.

[0013] Further, the suction nozzle is spaced from the inside of the boss in the radial direction. With such a setting, the boss and the suction nozzle are spaced from each other. During the up and down sliding of the suction nozzle, the boss will not generate friction on the suction nozzle, improving the smoothness of the suction nozzle sliding.

[0014] Furthermore, the button lock comprises a radial inner flange and a radial outer flange, the radial outer flange is located radially outside the radial inner flange, the limiting groove is arranged between the radial inner flange and the radial outer flange, and the length of the limiting groove in the radial direction of the container cover is not less than the length of the mounting seat flange in the radial direction of the container cover. In this way, the movement of the button lock can be limited by the mounting seat flange of the mounting seat, thereby preventing the button lock from being separated from the cover body.

[0015] According to another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the button lock also includes a connecting portion connected between the radial inner flange and the radial outer flange, the radial inner flange and the radial outer flange are respectively arranged on the top surface of the connecting portion, and the top surface of the connecting portion is protrudingly provided with a lock convex portion, and the button module also includes a lock spring, the lock spring is sleeved on the lock convex portion, and is pressed between the lock convex portion and the mounting seat flange. In this way, the lock spring can facilitate the button lock to be reset in time to prepare for the next unlocking. Furthermore, the lock convex portion is arranged on the connecting portion to facilitate the accurate positioning of the lock spring, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the container cover.

[0016] Optionally, the length of the radial inner flange in the axial direction of the container cover is smaller than the length of the radial outer flange in the axial direction of the container cover. In this way, the radial outer flange can be used to limit the axial movement of the button lock, and the axial length of the radial inner flange is smaller, which can provide a holding space for the button body to avoid movement interference with the button body.

[0017] Furthermore, the radial inner flange is recessed downwards in the middle of the circumference of the container cover to form a locking groove, so that the accommodating space of the button body is further increased.

[0018] Another aspect of the present disclosure provides a container, comprising a container body and the container cover as described above, wherein the container cover can be fitted over an opening of the container body.

[0019] Optionally, the cover body further comprises a direct drinking port and a direct drinking plug module capable of sealing the direct drinking port, and the direct drinking port is spaced apart from the suction nozzle.

[0020] The container cover and container provided by the present disclosure have at least the following beneficial effects: the container cover provided by the present disclosure includes a button module and a suction nozzle. The movement of the suction nozzle can be controlled by cooperating with the suction nozzle hook groove on the suction nozzle and the button hook on the button body. When the user needs to use the suction nozzle, the suction nozzle can slide and protrude from the top surface of the cover body, which is convenient for use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0062] Now, example embodiments will be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the embodiments of the present disclosure should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and thus their detailed descriptions will be omitted.

[0063] Referring to Figures 1 to 9 , in one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a container, which may include a container body 10 and a container lid 20 that can be closed at the opening of the container body 10.

[0064] Specifically, the container lid 20 may include a lid body 24, a nozzle module 21, and a button module 23. The lid body 24 may be provided with a nozzle mounting hole 248 extending along the axial direction of the lid body 24. The nozzle module 21 may include a nozzle 212, and the nozzle 212 may be slidably disposed in the nozzle mounting hole 248 to selectively protrude from the top surface of the lid body 24. A nozzle hook groove 217 is recessed on the side wall of the nozzle 212. The button module 23 may include a button body 233, and the button body 233 is provided with a button hook 236 that matches the nozzle hook groove 217, and the button hook 236 can selectively engage in the nozzle hook groove 217.

[0065] The container lid provided by the present disclosure may include a lid body 24, a nozzle module 21, and a button module 23. By driving the button body 233 to move, the combination of the nozzle hook groove 217 and the button hook 236 can be controlled, so that the nozzle 212 can be controlled to protrude from the lid body 24 for convenient use.

[0066] In this embodiment, when the nozzle 212 is hidden under the top surface of the lid body 24, the button hook 236 is firmly combined with the nozzle hook groove 217 to prevent the nozzle 212 from accidentally sliding, thereby improving the safety of use of the container lid 20.

[0067] Continuing to refer to the drawings, in an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the button module 23 may further include a button latch 231. When the button latch 231 is in the unlocked position, the button body 233 can move relative to the suction nozzle 212 so that the button hook 236 disengages from the suction nozzle hook groove 217. When the button latch 231 is in the locked position, the button hook 236 engages in the suction nozzle hook groove 217. With this arrangement, by providing the button latch 231, accidental disengagement of the button hook 236 from the suction nozzle hook groove 217 can be avoided, thereby further improving the safety of using the container lid.

[0068] Optionally, the container lid 20 may include a mounting seat 238 provided on the lid body 24. The button latch 231 is slidably provided on the lid body 24 in a first direction to slide between the unlocked position and the locked position. When the button latch 231 is in the unlocked position, the button body 233 can slide in a second direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. As an example, the mounting seat 238 may be integrally formed with the lid body 24, or the mounting seat 238 may be slidable relative to the lid body 24 in its radial direction.

[0069] As an example, the first direction may be the axial direction of the container lid 20, and the second direction may be the radial direction of the container lid 20. The locked position is below the unlocked position. The lid body 24 may further include a latch stop portion 241, and the latch stop portion 241 may be located radially inside the locked position. The latch stop portion 241 may be a protrusion provided on the lid body 24, such as Figure 11 shown. With this arrangement, the structure of the container lid is simpler, and the manufacturing cost is reduced to a certain extent.

[0070] Specifically, the radially outer end of the button body 233 presses against the button latch 231, and the radial travel of the button latch 231 is restricted by the button body 233 to prevent the button body 233 from detaching from the lid body 24. With this arrangement, the button body 233 is in direct contact with the button latch 231. In the case of horizontally pressing the button latch 231, the button body 233 can be driven radially to move, with a simple structure and easy operation.

[0071] In another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, the button body 233 may be provided with a button through hole 234. The button through hole 234 may be located in the middle of the mounting seat 238. The suction nozzle 212 may pass through the button through hole 234 and protrude from the top surface of the lid body 24. The button through hole 234 may be an oval hole, and the button hook 236 may be provided on the side wall of the radially inner end of the button through hole 234. With this arrangement, the button through hole 234 is an oval hole, enabling the suction nozzle 212 to slide within the button through hole 234, that is, the button through hole 234 provides a guiding function for the movement of the suction nozzle 212, and the suction nozzle 212 can slide smoothly relative to the button body 233.

[0072] Specifically, the button module 23 may further include a boss 237 fixed to the cover body 24, and the boss 237 is arranged at the middle of the waist-shaped hole in the second direction. Further, the nozzle 212 is spaced apart from the inner side in the radial direction of the boss 237. With such an arrangement, the boss 237 and the nozzle 212 are spaced apart, and during the up-and-down sliding process of the nozzle 212, no frictional force is generated on the nozzle 212, improving the smoothness of the sliding of the nozzle 212.

[0073] In order to reset the button body 233, the button module 23 may further include a button spring 235, and the button spring 235 is arranged in the button through-hole 234 and is pressed between the outer side wall in the radial direction of the button through-hole 234 and the boss 237. With such an arrangement, the button module 23 may include the button spring 235 to provide a reset pressure for the button body 233, thus facilitating the automatic reset of the button body 233.

[0074] Further, a mounting seat flange 2381 protrudes downward from the outer end in the radial direction of the mounting seat 238. The button lock 231 may include a radially inner flange 2311 and a radially outer flange 2312 that are spaced apart in the radial direction of the container cover 20. Among them, the radially outer flange 2312 may be located radially outside the radially inner flange 2311. The mounting seat flange 2381 may be arranged between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312, and the distance between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312 may be not less than the length of the mounting seat flange 2381 in the radial direction of the container cover 20. A button through-hole 234 is provided in the middle of the mounting seat 238, and the nozzle 212 may extend out of the container through the button through-hole 234 to the outside. With such an arrangement, the mounting seat 238 may be sleeved on the outer periphery of the nozzle 212 and may move in the radial direction of the cover body 24 so that the button hook 236 can be disengaged from the nozzle hook groove 217. In this embodiment, the nozzle 212 can be used for radially limiting the mounting seat 238. Therefore, the mounting seat 238 may be slidably arranged on the cover body 24 in the radial direction of the cover body 24. During the radial movement of the button lock 231, the mounting seat 238 may move radially with it. It can be understood that the mounting seat 238 may also be stationary on the cover body 24.

[0075] When the distance between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312 is the same as the length of the mounting base flange 2381 in the radial direction of the container lid 20, the mounting base 238 can move radially together with the button latch 231. When the distance between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312 is greater than the length of the mounting base flange 2381 in the radial direction of the container lid 20, the mounting base 238 can be stationary relative to the lid body 24, or the mounting base 238 moves a distance less than the movement distance of the button latch 231 in the radial direction of the lid body 24 along the radial direction of the lid body 24.

[0076] In this embodiment, by inserting the mounting base flange 2381 between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312, radial limit can be applied to the button latch 231.

[0077] In another exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to enable the button latch 231 to automatically reset, the button module 23 may further include a latch spring 232. Specifically, the button latch 231 may further include a connecting portion 2314 connected between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312. The radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312 are respectively disposed on the top surface of the connecting portion 2314. A latch convex portion 2313 is protrudingly provided on the top surface of the connecting portion 2314 and is pressed between the latch convex portion 2313 and the mounting base flange 2381. The latch spring 232 is sleeved on the latch convex portion 2313. With such a setting, the latch spring 232 can facilitate the timely reset of the button latch 231 to prepare for the next unlocking. Further, providing the latch convex portion 2313 on the connecting portion 2314 can facilitate the accurate positioning of the latch spring 232, improving the assembly efficiency of the container lid 20.

[0078] Optionally, the length of the radially inner flange 2311 in the axial direction of the container lid 20 can be less than the length of the radially outer flange 2312 in the axial direction of the container lid 20. With such a setting, the radially outer flange 2312 can be used to limit the axial movement of the button latch 231.

[0079] As an example, the radially outer end of the button body 233 can be pressed against the inner surface of the radially outer flanging 2312. Since the button latch 231 is radially limited by the mounting seat flanging 2381, when the inner surface of the mounting seat flanging 2381 abuts against the radially inner flanging 2311, the button latch 231 is at the radially outermost position, and the button latch 231 cannot move radially outward towards the container lid 20. At this time, the radially outer end of the button body 233 abuts against the radially outer flanging 2312 to be at the radially outermost position, and the button body 233 moves towards the center direction close to the container lid 20. Further, the axial length of the radially inner flanging 2311 is less than the axial length of the radially outer flanging 2312, which can provide a receiving space for the button body 233. The button convex portion 2382 can be located above the radially inner flanging 2311 to avoid interference between the radially inner flanging 2311 and the button convex portion 2382.

[0080] Further, in order to further increase the receiving space of the button body 233, the radially inner flanging 2311 is recessed downward in the middle of the circumferential direction of the container lid 20 to form a latch groove 2315, and the button convex portion 2382 can be located above the latch groove 2315.

[0081] Specifically, the container lid 20 can include a lid body 24 and a nozzle module 21. The lid body 24 can include a nozzle guiding portion 242, and the nozzle guiding portion 242 is provided with a nozzle mounting hole 248 extending along the axial direction of the container body 10. The nozzle module 21 can include a nozzle 212 and a nozzle plug 211 for blocking the opening of the nozzle 212. Among them, the nozzle 212 can have a nozzle drinking water channel 219, the nozzle plug 211 can block the nozzle drinking water channel 219, and the nozzle 212 can be disposed in the nozzle mounting hole 248 to selectively protrude from the top surface of the lid body 24.

[0082] The nozzle module 21 provided by the present disclosure includes a nozzle 212, and the nozzle 212 is slidably disposed in the nozzle mounting hole 248 of the lid body 24. When the user needs to use the nozzle 212, the nozzle 212 can be driven to slide to protrude from the top surface of the lid body 24 for convenient operation.

[0083] Further, the container provided by the present disclosure can be a cup, the container lid 20 can be a cup lid, and the nozzle plug 211 can block the opening of the nozzle drinking water channel 219 of the nozzle 212 as needed. For example, when drinking water is not required, the nozzle plug 211 can be inserted into the opening of the nozzle drinking water channel 219 of the nozzle 212, so as to prevent the liquid in the container from leaking out through the nozzle drinking water channel 219 and avoid external impurities from entering the cup body through the nozzle drinking water channel 219.

[0084] As an example, the nozzle plug 211 can be set to be generally in the shape of a "one" character. A sealing convex portion 2111 is protruding and provided on the lower wall of the nozzle plug 211. The sealing convex portion 2111 can be cylindrical, and the diameter of the sealing convex portion 2111 can be equal to the inner diameter of the nozzle drinking water channel 219 so as to be able to be inserted into the nozzle drinking water channel 219.

[0085] Furthermore, a nozzle plug accommodation groove matching the nozzle plug 211 can be provided on the cover body 24. When the nozzle 212 slides down and retracts below the top surface of the cover body 24, the nozzle plug 211 can be pressed into the nozzle plug accommodation groove, and the sealing convex portion 2111 is inserted into the nozzle drinking water channel 219, so that the nozzle plug 211 is firmly clamped on the cover body 24. Optionally, the nozzle plug 211 can be connected to the cover body 24 by a silk thread. For example but not limited to, the silk thread can be a flexible rope. The nozzle plug 211 can be made of rubber material or plastic material, but not limited thereto.

[0086] As an example, the cover body 24 can include a nozzle guiding portion 242. The nozzle guiding portion 242 can protrude and extend from the bottom wall of the cover body 24. The nozzle mounting hole 248 can be arranged in the middle of the nozzle guiding portion 242. It can be understood that the nozzle guiding portion 242 can be in a cylindrical shape.

[0087] In order to further improve the sealing performance of the container cover and prevent the objects in the container from leaking out, the nozzle module 21 can further include a nozzle sealing ring 213. A sealing ring groove extending along the circumferential direction of the nozzle 212 is provided on the outer circumference of the nozzle 212. The nozzle sealing ring 213 is arranged in the sealing ring groove and is pressed between the sealing ring groove and the inner wall of the nozzle guiding portion 242. With such an arrangement, the objects in the container can be sealed below the nozzle sealing ring 213, so that the objects can be blocked in the container to prevent leakage.

[0088] Furthermore, in order to enable the nozzle 212 to automatically reset, the nozzle module 21 can further include a nozzle spring 214. An inward flanging 246 is provided at the bottom end of the nozzle guiding portion 242. The nozzle spring 214 can be sleeved on the outer circumference of the nozzle 212 and the nozzle spring 214 is pressed between the nozzle 212 and the inward flanging 246.

[0089] As an example, the nozzle 212 can include an upper part and a lower part, and the diameter of the upper part can be larger than that of the lower part. A stepped portion 218 can be provided between the upper part and the lower part. The stepped portion 218 is located above the inward flanging 246.

[0090] In this embodiment, the top end of the nozzle spring 214 can be sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the upper part to be clamped on the nozzle 212. Optionally, the top end of the nozzle spring 214 can be pressed against the stepped portion 218, and the bottom end of the nozzle spring 214 can be pressed against the inward flanging 246. When the nozzle 212 retracts below the top surface of the cover body 24, the nozzle spring 214 is compressed. After removing the restraint of the nozzle 212, the nozzle 212 will pop out of the top surface of the cover body 24 under the action of the nozzle spring 214. At this time, the upper part of the nozzle 212 can be exposed above the top surface of the cover body 24, facilitating the user to use the nozzle 212.

[0091] To improve the smoothness of drinking during the use of the cup, a guide portion air inlet groove 243 is provided on the hole wall of the nozzle mounting hole 248 of the nozzle guide portion 242. When the nozzle 212 protrudes above the top surface of the cover body 24, the container cover 20 communicates with the outside through the guide portion air inlet groove 243. Specifically, the guide portion air inlet groove 243 is provided in the upper part of the nozzle guide portion 242. The nozzle sealing ring 213 is located above the stepped portion 218. When the nozzle 212 protrudes above the top surface of the cover body 24, the stepped portion 218 can be above the bottom end of the guide portion air inlet groove 243, so that the guide portion air inlet groove 243 communicates with the gap between the nozzle guide portion 242 and the nozzle 212 below the nozzle 212, keeping the air pressure inside the container the same as that outside.

[0092] To prevent the nozzle 212 from detaching from the cover body 24 during the upward movement, the nozzle module 21 can further include a nozzle fixing nut 215. The nozzle fixing nut 215 can be fixed to the lower part of the nozzle 212 and is located below the nozzle guide portion 242. When the nozzle 212 protrudes above the top surface of the cover body 24, the nozzle fixing nut 215 abuts against the lower part of the nozzle guide portion 242 to limit the upward movement of the nozzle 212 in the axial direction.

[0093] Further, to selectively drive the movement of the nozzle 212, the container cover can further include a button module 23. The button module 23 can include a button body 233. The button body 233 is provided with a button hook 236. A nozzle hook groove 217 matching the button hook 236 is provided on the outer periphery of the upper part of the nozzle 212. When the nozzle 212 is hidden below the top surface of the cover body 24, the button hook 236 can be snap-connected with the nozzle hook groove 217, that is, the button hook 236 can be inserted into the nozzle hook groove 217. Optionally, the nozzle module 21 can further include a straw 216, which is connected to the lower part of the nozzle 212 and can extend to the bottom of the container.

[0094] In this embodiment, the button body 233 may include a mounting seat 238, a mounting seat flange 2381, and a button protrusion 2382. A button through hole 234 is provided in the middle of the mounting seat 238 for the suction nozzle 212 to pass through. A button hook 236 is provided on the radial inner wall of the button through hole 234, and a button protrusion 2382 is provided on the radial outer wall of the button through hole 234. In this embodiment, the button through hole 234 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the suction nozzle 212 to limit its radial movement through the suction nozzle 212.

[0095] As an example, the cover body 24 may be provided with a button mounting hole (not shown) extending radially along the cover body 24, and the button body 233 may be slidably disposed in the button mounting hole. When the button body 233 is located in the first position, the button hook 236 and the nozzle hook groove 217 may be snap-connected.

[0096] Further, the button body 233 may be provided with a button through hole 234, which may be a waist-shaped hole extending radially along the cover body 24, and the suction nozzle 212 may be inserted into the button through hole 234. Preferably, the button hook 236 may be provided on the radially inner wall surface of the button through hole 234.

[0097] In order to enable the button body 233 to automatically reset, the button module 23 may further include a button spring 235, which may be pressed into the button through hole 234 to provide the button body 233 with an extrusion force in a direction away from the suction nozzle 212, that is, the button body 233 is subjected to a radially outward extrusion force. As an example, the inner wall of the radial outer end of the button through hole 234 is protrudingly provided with a button protrusion 2382, and the radial outer end of the button spring 235 is sleeved on the button protrusion 2382, and optionally, the button protrusion 2382 may extend in the radial direction of the container cover 20. A boss 237 is protrudingly provided on the side wall of the button through hole 234 along the circumference of the container cover 20, and the radial inner end of the button spring 235 may be pressed against the boss 237, but it is not limited thereto, and the radial inner end of the button spring 235 may also be pressed against the outer peripheral wall of the suction nozzle 212. In this embodiment, the button spring 235 is pressed against the boss 237 instead of being directly pressed against the outer peripheral wall of the suction nozzle 212, thereby improving the smoothness of the up and down movement of the suction nozzle 212.

[0098] Furthermore, in order to improve the reliability of the button body 233 and avoid leakage of objects in the container due to misoperation, the button module 23 can also include a button lock 231. When the suction nozzle 212 is retracted below the top surface of the cover body 24, the button lock 231 is radially stopped on the lock stop portion 241. The button lock 231 is moved upward and pressed radially, and the button lock 231 can move radially inward to push the button body 233 to move radially inward.

[0099] Specifically, the button latch 231 can be pressed against the radial outer end of the button body 233, and the cover body 24 can include a latch mounting hole (not shown in the figure). The button latch 231 can slide up and down along the axial direction of the container cover within the latch mounting hole to move up and down relative to the cover body 24. When the button latch 231 is above the latch stop portion 241, the button latch 231 can move radially inward together with the button body 233. When the button latch 231 slides up and down, the button body 233 can move up and down with it, or can be stationary at its original position on the cover body 24 and move axially relative to the button latch 231.

[0100] To facilitate the reset of the button latch 231, the button module 23 can further include a latch spring 232. The button latch 231 includes a longitudinal accommodation cavity, and both ends of the latch spring 232 are respectively pressed against the button body 233 and the bottom of the accommodation cavity. Optionally, a latch protrusion 2313 protrudes upward from the connecting portion 2314 of the accommodation cavity, and the lower end of the latch spring 232 is sleeved on the latch protrusion 2313.

[0101] As an example, the container provided by the present disclosure can further include a drinking spout 245 provided on the cover body 24 and a drinking plug module 22 for blocking the drinking spout 245. The drinking plug module 22 can include a drinking plug cover 221 pivotally connected to the cover body 24. A drinking plug body 222 is provided on the drinking plug cover 221, and the drinking plug body 222 can selectively block the drinking spout 245. For example, but not limited to, when the drinking plug cover 221 is closed and connected to the cover body 24, the drinking plug body 222 can block the drinking spout 245. Refer to Figure 10 、 Figure 11 and Figure 13 As well as , a pivot hole 247 is provided on the cover body 24, and the drinking plug cover 221 can be connected to the cover body 24 through the pivot hole 247.

[0102] To make drinking more smooth, the cover body 24 can further be provided with a cover body air inlet hole 244, which is also opened when the drinking spout 245 is opened. Specifically, an air hole plug 224 can also be provided on the drinking plug body 222. When the drinking plug cover 221 is closed and connected to the cover body 24, the air hole plug 224 can block the cover body air inlet hole 244 to prevent the water in the container from leaking out through the cover body air inlet hole 244.

[0103] The working principle of the container cover 20 will be specifically explained below with reference to the drawings.

[0104] Refer to Figure 1, which shows that the container can include a container body 10 and a container lid 20 covering the top opening of the container body 10. The container lid 20 can further include a lid body 24, on which a direct drinking port 245 (shown below) is provided. To prevent the object stored in the container from accidentally flowing out, the container lid 20 can also include a direct drinking plug module 22 covering the position of the direct drinking port 245. To improve the versatility of the container lid 20, a nozzle mounting hole 248 (shown below) can also be provided on the lid body 24. The container lid 20 can further include a nozzle module 21 for covering the position of the nozzle mounting hole 248 and a button module 23 for controlling the movement of the nozzle module 21.

[0105] Referring to Figure 2 , Figures 10 to 13 , specifically, the nozzle 212 can have a nozzle drinking water channel 219 to be able to communicate with the space inside the container body 10, facilitating the drinking of the object inside the container body 10. For example, but not limited to, the object can be soup or liquid beverage. To be able to control the opening and closing of the nozzle drinking water channel 219, the nozzle module 21 can include a nozzle plug 211. A sealing convex portion 2111 protrudes outward from the bottom wall of the nozzle plug 211 to be able to insert into the top of the nozzle drinking water channel 219.

[0106] As shown in the figure, by way of example, the nozzle plug 211 is generally plate-shaped, and the sealing convex portion 2111 is cylindrical, but not limited thereto.

[0107] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 13 , a nozzle guiding portion 242 protrudes downward from the bottom wall of the lid body 24. The nozzle guiding portion 242 is generally cylindrical, and the inner diameter of the nozzle guiding portion 242 can be equal to the outer diameter of the nozzle 212. Further, the nozzle 212 can include an upper part and a lower part, and the outer diameter of the lower part can be smaller than the outer diameter of the upper part. The inner diameter of the nozzle guiding portion 242 can be equal to the outer diameter of the upper part of the nozzle 212, and a stepped portion 218 can be provided between the upper part and the lower part.

[0108] Further, to seal the nozzle module 21 and prevent the liquid inside the container from leaking out, the nozzle module 21 can also include a nozzle sealing ring 213. A sealing ring groove (not shown in the figure) extending along the circumference of the nozzle 212 can be provided on the upper part of the nozzle 212. The nozzle sealing ring 213 can be disposed in the sealing ring groove and pressed between the sealing ring groove and the inner wall of the nozzle guiding portion 242. By way of example, the sealing ring groove is located above the stepped portion 218.

[0109] In order to enable the nozzle 212 to automatically reset, the nozzle module 21 may further include a nozzle spring 214. An inward flanging 246 may be provided at the bottom end of the nozzle guiding portion 242. The nozzle spring 214 may be sleeved on the outer periphery of the nozzle 212 and located in the inner cavity of the nozzle guiding portion 242 to be pressed between the inward flanging 246 and the stepped portion 218.

[0110] As Figure 2 shown, the nozzle 212 may be hidden below the top surface of the cover body 24. At this time, the nozzle spring 214 may be in a compressed state.

[0111] Furthermore, in order to prevent the nozzle 212 from moving upward to disengage from the cover body 24, a nozzle fixing nut 215 may be fixedly provided at the lower part of the nozzle 212. The nozzle fixing nut 215 may be threadedly connected to the nozzle 212, but not limited thereto. A straw 216 may be communicatively provided below the nozzle 212. The straw 216 may extend to the inner cavity bottom wall of the container body 10 so that all the liquid in the container body 10 can be drunk.

[0112] In order to keep the pressure inside and outside the container the same when drinking the liquid in the container, a guiding portion air inlet groove 243 may be provided on the side wall of the nozzle mounting hole 248. When the stepped portion 218 is above the bottom end of the guiding portion air inlet groove 243 when the nozzle 212 protrudes from the top surface of the cover body 24, the guiding portion air inlet groove 243 is communicated with the inside of the container. Specifically, the outer diameter of the lower part of the nozzle 212 is smaller than the inner diameter of the nozzle guiding portion 242, that is, there is a gap between the lower part of the nozzle 212 and the nozzle guiding portion 242. When the stepped portion 218 is above the bottom end of the guiding portion air inlet groove 243 when the nozzle 212 protrudes above the top surface of the cover body 24, this gap is communicated with the guiding portion air inlet groove 243 and then communicated with the outside.

[0113] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 、 Figures 10 to 11 and Figures 14 to 16 , the button module 23 may include a button body 233 and a button lock 231.

[0114] Specifically, in this embodiment, the button body 233 may include a mounting seat 238, a mounting seat flanging 2381, and a button protrusion 2382. A button through hole 234 for the nozzle 212 to pass through is provided in the middle of the mounting seat 238. A button hook 236 is provided on the radial inner side wall of the button through hole 234, and a button protrusion 2382 is provided on the radial outer side wall of the button through hole 234. In this embodiment, the button through hole 234 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the nozzle 212 to limit its radial movement through the nozzle 212.

[0115] The radially outer end of the mounting base 238 is provided with a mounting base flange 2381 extending downward. The button latch 231 can be generally U-shaped and includes a radially inner flange 2311, a radially outer flange 2312, and a connecting portion 2314 connecting between the radially inner flange 2311 and the radially outer flange 2312. The radially outer flange 2312 is located radially outside the radially inner flange 2311, and there is a gap between the radially outer flange 2312 and the radially inner flange 2311. The mounting base flange 2381 can be inserted between the radially outer flange 2312 and the radially inner flange 2311 to limit the radial movement of the button latch 231 through the mounting base flange 2381 and prevent the button latch 231 from detaching from the cover body 24.

[0116] As an example, the distance between the radially outer flange 2312 and the radially inner flange 2311 can be not less than the length of the mounting base flange 2381 in the radial direction of the container cover 20, so that the mounting base flange 2381 can be inserted into the space between the radially outer flange 2312 and the radially inner flange 2311. Further, the axial length of the radially inner flange 2311 along the container cover 20 is less than the axial length of the radially outer flange 2312 along the container cover 20 to provide sufficient accommodation space for the button protrusion 2382.

[0117] Further, in order to enable the button latch 231 to automatically reset, the button module 23 can further include a latch spring 232. A latch protrusion 2313 is protruded upward on the top surface of the connecting portion 2314. The latch spring 232 can be sleeved on the latch protrusion 2313, and the latch spring 232 is longitudinally arranged and its two ends respectively abut against the button body 233 and the latch protrusion 2313. By providing the latch protrusion 2313, the latch spring 232 can be accurately positioned on the latch protrusion 2313, improving the assembly efficiency of the container cover 20.

[0118] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the button body 233 to directly contact the radially outer flange 2312 or the button body 233 to directly contact the latch spring 232, a latch spring accommodation hole 2383 is provided in the middle of the mounting base flange 2381 in the circumferential direction of the container cover 20.

[0119] Further, in order to stably hide the nozzle 212 under the top surface of the lid body 24, the button body 233 may include a button hook 236. Specifically, the button body 233 may be provided with a button through-hole 234 for the nozzle 212 to pass through. Specifically, the button through-hole 234 is provided in the middle of the mounting base 238. The button through-hole 234 may be an oval hole extending in the radial direction of the container lid 20. A button hook 236 is protrudingly provided on the wall surface at the radial inner end of the button through-hole 234. A nozzle hook groove 217 matching the button hook 236 may be provided on the outer side wall of the upper part of the nozzle 212. Through the snap connection between the button hook 236 and the nozzle hook groove 217, the nozzle 212 is stably hidden under the top surface of the lid body 24.

[0120] In order to enable the button body 233 to automatically reset, the button module 23 further includes a button spring 235. Specifically, a boss 237 is provided in the middle of the button through-hole 234 in the radial direction of the container lid 20. The boss 237 is spaced from the nozzle 212 to prevent the nozzle 212 from being rubbed by the boss 237 during the up and down sliding of the nozzle 212 when the boss 237 is in direct contact with the nozzle 212, so that the sliding of the nozzle 212 is smoother. The button spring 235 extends in the radial direction of the container lid 20, and both ends respectively abut against the boss 237 and the radial inner end of the button body 233. As an example, a boss insertion hole 249 is provided on the lid body 24, and the boss 237 can be clamped in the boss insertion hole 249.

[0121] Figure 1 and Figure 2 In, the nozzle 212 is hidden under the top surface of the lid body 24, and the nozzle drinking water channel 219 is blocked by the nozzle plug 211 to prevent the liquid in the container from leaking out. The nozzle sealing ring 213 is located below the guide part air inlet groove 243 and is far from the guide part air inlet groove 243. At this time, the button hook 236 is firmly clamped in the nozzle hook groove 217. The nozzle fixing nut 215 is located below the nozzle guide part 242 and is arranged far from the nozzle guide part 242. The button lock 231 is located at the locking position, that is, on the radial outer side of the lock stop part 241 and abuts against the radial outer edge of the lock stop part 241.

[0122] Figure 3 and Figure 4 In, different from the states in Figure 1 and Figure 2 is that the button lock 231 moves upward to be located at the unlocking position. At this time, the button lock 231 can slide radially inward.

[0123] Figure 5 and Figure 6 In, different from the states in Figure 3 and Figure 4In contrast, the button latch 231 slides towards the center of the container lid 20, pushing the button body 233 to slide radially inwards. At this time, the button hook 236 can disengage from the nozzle hook groove 217, and the nozzle 212 can slide freely up and down.

[0124] Figure 7 and Figure 8 In [reference], the nozzle 212 protrudes above the top surface of the lid body 24. At this time, due to the stop of the nozzle 212, the button hook 236 will remain in this position and will not reset the button body 233. It is necessary to press the nozzle 212 axially downwards again so that the nozzle 212 is hidden below the top surface of the lid body 24 again before the button body 233 can be reset. In this state, the stepped portion 218 is located above the bottom end of the guide portion air inlet groove 243 to connect the outside with the inside of the container. At this time, the nozzle fixing nut 215 abuts below the nozzle guide portion 242 to prevent the nozzle 212 from detaching from the lid body 24.

[0125] In contrast to Figure 1 [reference], Figure 9 shows a structural diagram of the direct drinking port 245 in an open state. Among them, the direct drinking plug module 22 can include a direct drinking plug cover 221 pivotally mounted on the lid body 24 through a plug cover pivot shaft 223 and a direct drinking plug body 222 fixed to the direct drinking plug module 22. When the direct drinking plug cover 221 is in a closed state, the direct drinking plug body 222 seals the direct drinking port 245, as shown in Figure 1 [reference]. Further, a lid body air inlet hole 244 can be provided on the lid body 24 to keep the internal and external pressures equal when drinking the liquid in the drinking container. When the direct drinking plug cover 221 is in a closed state, the air hole plug 224 seals the lid body air inlet hole 244. In this embodiment, the air hole plug 224 is provided on the direct drinking plug cover 221 and is located between the plug cover pivot shaft 223 and the direct drinking plug body 222. Further, as an example, the air hole plug 224 and the direct drinking plug body 222 can be integrally formed of the same material, but this is not limiting.
