[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a movable lid includes a lid 2 and a drinking water unit 3 integrally formed on the lid 2. The lid 2 is usually used in conjunction with a container 1. A water inlet unit 4 connected to the drinking water unit 3 is provided at the bottom of the lid 2. When drinking, the liquid in the container 1 flows into the water inlet unit 4 and the drinking water unit 3 discharges the liquid for drinking. A movable unit 6 connected to the water inlet unit 4 is provided on one side of the lid 2. The movable unit 6 can be movably installed on one side of the lid 2. The water inlet unit 4 is opened or closed by manually displacing the movable unit 6. Under normal conditions, the water inlet unit 4 is closed, and the liquid in the container 1 cannot flow into the water inlet unit 4, and therefore will not flow out of the drinking water unit 3. When drinking is needed, only the movable unit 6 needs to be manually displaced to open the water inlet unit 4, and the liquid in the container 1 can flow into the water inlet unit and the drinking water unit 3 discharges the liquid for drinking. When not drinking, the movable unit 6 is manually displaced again to close the water inlet unit. The principle is relatively simple, the structure is relatively simple, the production is relatively convenient, and the operation can be completed with one hand, which is relatively convenient for the user to use.

[0029] The movable unit 6 is provided with a sealing member 7 for increasing the sealing performance after the water inlet unit 4 is closed to prevent the liquid in the container 1 from entering. The drinking water unit 3 includes a suction nozzle for drinking and a direct drinking mouth for drinking. The applicant can produce a suction nozzle drinking water unit or a direct drinking mouth drinking water unit according to different usage requirements.

[0030] The sealing member 7 is provided with a first sealing rib 8, a second sealing rib 9 and a third sealing rib 10, and has a triple sealing structure, which can seal from different positions and angles, further improving the sealing performance. After the water inlet unit 4 is closed, it can effectively prevent the liquid in the container 1 from entering, ensuring the good quality of the product. After closing, it is less likely for liquid to overflow, ensuring the good quality of the product and guaranteeing a good drinking experience for users.

[0031] The first sealing rib 8 is annularly arranged around one end of the sealing member 7, the second sealing rib 9 is also annularly arranged around the other end of the sealing member 7, the third sealing rib 10 is located on both sides of the sealing member 7 and both ends of the third sealing rib 10 extend to the first sealing rib 8 and the second sealing rib 9 respectively.

[0032] The water inlet unit 4 includes a cavity 11 at the bottom of the cover 2, a water inlet channel 12 extending downward from the bottom of the cavity 11, and a straw 13 installed on the water inlet channel 12. The straw 13 is plugged into the water inlet channel 12 and can be removed. When drinking, the liquid in the container 1 passes through the straw 13, the water inlet channel 12, and the cavity 11 in sequence, and finally comes out of the water unit 3 for drinking.

[0033] The cover 2 is provided with a mounting groove 5 on one side, the mounting groove 5 is connected to the cavity 11, and the movable unit 6 is movably mounted on the mounting groove 5. The movable unit 6 includes a locking block 14 and a plug 15 whose end portion of the locking block 14 extends into the cavity 11, the locking block 14 is slidably mounted on the mounting groove 5, the locking block 14 drives the plug 15 to move in the cavity 11, and the water inlet unit 4 is opened or closed by sliding the locking block 14. Under normal conditions, the water inlet unit 4 is in a closed state, the side wall of the locking block 14 is flush with the side wall of the lid 2, the plug 15 blocks the entire cavity 11, and the liquid in the container 1 enters the straw 13 and the water inlet channel 12, but cannot enter the cavity 11; when drinking is needed, the locking block 14 is manually slid to one side to open the water inlet unit 4, the locking block 14 gradually protrudes from one side of the lid 2, and drives the plug 15 to move gradually away from the upper end of the water inlet channel 12. At this time, when using the drinking water unit 3 for drinking, the liquid in the container 1 can pass through the straw 13, the water inlet channel 12, the cavity 11, and the drinking water unit 3 in turn for the user to drink, which is more convenient to use and the sliding method is simple.

[0034] The seal 7 is a first sealing structure, blocking the upper end of the water inlet channel 12, so that the liquid in the water inlet channel 12 cannot enter the cavity 11 through the water inlet channel 12; the first sealing rib 8 is a second sealing structure. If the liquid accidentally passes through the first sealing structure of the seal 7, the second sealing rib 8 is used to close the channel from the cavity 11 to the assembly groove 5, so as to prevent the liquid from leaking from the gap between the lock block 14 and the assembly groove 5 and directly contacting the user's hand; the first sealing rib 8, the second sealing rib 9 and the third sealing rib 10 are connected to form a third sealing structure. If the liquid accidentally passes through the gap between the seal 7 and the water inlet channel 12, the first sealing rib 8, the second sealing rib 9 and the third sealing rib 10 are used to close the gap between the cavity 11 and the seal 7, so that the liquid cannot enter the drinking water unit 3. The multiple sealing structures cooperate with each other, which greatly guarantees the good sealing performance of the water inlet unit 4, ensures that the output has a good quality, and brings a good drinking experience to the user. When the water inlet unit 4 is opened, the plug 15 drives the seal 7 to detach from the top of the water inlet channel 12.

[0035] The locking block 14 is provided with a movable groove 16 penetrating the locking block 14, a button 17 is provided in the movable groove 16, a shaft column 18 is provided passing through the button 17 and both ends of the shaft column 18 are connected to the side walls of the movable groove 16, and the button 17 is rotated to open and close with the shaft column 18 as an end point. A torsion spring 25 is provided on the shaft column 18, and one end of the button 17 for pressing is against the torsion spring 25, and the button 17 is reset by the resilience of the torsion spring 25 after being pressed.

[0036] The assembly groove 5 is provided with an air inlet 19, and a return air valve 20 made of soft rubber material is provided on the air inlet 19. When the user continues to drink the liquid in the container 1 through the drinking water unit 3, the air inside the container 1 is reduced to generate negative pressure, and the outside air can enter the container 1 through the return air valve 20 to balance the pressure difference between the inside and outside, so that the user can continue to drink. When the water inlet unit 4 is closed, the button 17 is used to block the upper end of the return air valve 20 with one end of the seal to prevent the liquid in the container 1 from overflowing from the return air valve 20; when the water inlet unit 4 needs to be opened, the button 17 can be pressed to release the pressure to prevent the liquid from spraying out or making a sound when the air pressure in the container 1 is too high when it is opened; at the same time, the button 17 is pushed to one side so that the lock block 14 drives the plug 15 to move to one side to open the water inlet unit 4, and the button 17 is disengaged from the upper end of the return air valve 20 with the lock block 14. When the water inlet unit 4 is opened, the return air valve 20 is also in an open state, so that the user can continue to drink.

[0037] The assembly groove 5 is provided with a raised support block 21, which is located on both sides of the return valve 20 and is slightly lower than the return valve 20. When the button 17 covers the return valve 20, it will squeeze the return valve 20 to cause it to deform slightly. After deformation, the button 17 contacts the support block 21. The support block 21 plays the role of supporting the button 17, preventing the button 17 from repeatedly opening and closing to damage the return valve 20, thereby increasing the service life. In addition, the support block 21 is also used to lock the button. When the lock block 14 slides to open the water inlet unit 4, the button 17 moves with the lock block 14 and opens the return valve 20. Since the front end of the button 17 is always subject to the downward rebound force of the torsion spring 25, when it slides to the back of the support block 21, the button 17 slightly rotates downward and rests against the back of the support block, preventing the movable unit 6 from sliding inwards and blocking the water inlet channel 12 when the water inlet unit 4 is opened to drink water.

[0038] A cavity 22 is reserved between the bottom of the locking block 14 and the assembly groove 5 for the return air valve 20 to pass through. When the water inlet unit 4 is in a closed state, the return air valve 20 is located below the movable groove 16. When the locking block 14 slides outward to open the water inlet unit 4, the movable groove 16 moves synchronously with the locking block 14, and finally the locking block 14 covers the top of the return air valve 20. The setting of the cavity 22 provides a certain space for the return air valve 20 to pass through, thereby preventing the locking block 14 from getting stuck with the return air valve 20 when sliding.

[0039] An air inlet groove 23 is provided at the bottom of the locking block 14. After the movable unit 6 slides to open the water inlet unit 4, the air inlet groove 23 slides with the locking block 14 to the upper end of the return valve 20, thereby increasing the space between the return valve 20 and the locking block 14 to facilitate air intake. External air enters the air inlet groove 23 through the movable groove 16, and then enters the container 1 through the return valve 20.

[0040] The button 17 is provided with an inclined pressing surface 26, and the pressing surface 26 is provided with anti-skid patterns 27. When opening the water inlet unit 4, the finger presses on the pressing surface 26, and the inclined design helps to push the button 17 and drive the lock block 14 to slide to one side, making it easier to open the water inlet unit 4. The anti-skid patterns 27 can increase the friction with the finger to prevent slipping.

[0041] The locking block 14 is provided with raised sliders 32 on both sides, and the side wall of the assembly groove 5 is provided with a slide groove 33 adapted to the slider 32. When the locking block 14 slides, the slider 32 slides in the slide groove 33, which plays a role in positioning and guiding the locking block 14, ensuring the sliding track of the locking block 14. The slider 32 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed inner recesses 24, which reduces the contact area between the slider 32 and the slide groove 33, thereby reducing the friction during sliding, making the sliding easier and smoother.

[0042] The cover 2 is provided with a mounting groove 28 surrounding the outer side of the mounting groove 5, and a buckle cover 29 is provided on the mounting groove 28, and the buckle cover 20 is adapted to the contour of the mounting groove 28. Both sides of the bottom of the buckle cover 29 are provided with mounting posts 30 extending downward, and the mounting groove 28 is provided with mounting holes 31 adapted to the mounting posts 30. When the buckle cover 29 is assembled on the mounting groove 28, the mounting posts 30 are buckled into the mounting holes 31.

[0043] A spring groove 34 connected to the assembly groove 5 is provided in the installation groove 28, and a spring is provided in the spring groove 34; first spring blocks 35 extending into the spring groove 34 are provided on both sides of the lock block 14, and a second spring block 36 corresponding to the first spring block 35 is provided on the inner wall of the buckle cover 29, and the two ends of the spring are respectively sleeved on the first spring block 35 and the second spring block 36, and the first spring block 34 squeezes the spring to deform, and when the water inlet unit 4 is slid to close, the spring can exert a rebound force on the lock block 14 to help reset.
