Detailed implementation manners

[0023] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0024] In one embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, a multifunctional water cup for the blind is provided, including a cup body 100, a lid 200 and a base 300; a cavity is provided inside the cup body for holding water; the lid and the base are respectively detachably connected or movably connected to the cup body from both ends of the cavity, for example, by means of threaded connection, snap connection, hinge connection, etc.

[0025] An enclosed first device chamber is provided inside the lid, and a first PCB board 201 is provided inside the first device chamber. Any one or more of an infrared sensing module 202, an object recognition module 203, and a biometric recognition module 204 are integrated on the first PCB board; a speaker 205, a camera 206, a temperature sensor 207 and a first power supply module 208 are also integrated on the first PCB board; the temperature sensor extends downward outside the first device chamber.

[0026] A heating plate 301 is provided on the upper surface of the base, and a water level detector 302 is provided above the heating plate; an enclosed second device chamber is provided inside the base, and a second PCB board 303 is provided inside the second device chamber. A motor 304, a Bluetooth module 305, a positioning module 306, a gyroscope 307 and a second power supply module 308 are integrated on the second PCB board; the motor is used to drive the cup body to rotate;

[0027] A wireless communication module is also integrated on the first PCB board or the second PCB board.

[0028] Among them, the infrared sensing module is used to scan and sense the human body temperature and / or respiration. When an abnormal human body temperature is scanned, an alarm is issued. For example, after the alarm reaches a certain number of times (such as 3 times), the guardian is contacted through the wireless communication module, or when abnormal respiration is detected, the guardian is automatically contacted.

[0029] The biometric recognition module includes a fingerprint recognition module, a voiceprint recognition module, or an iris recognition module, which is used to determine whether the identity of the user matches the identity of the water cup owner to enhance the security of the water cup.

[0030] The object recognition module is electrically connected to the camera and is used to identify objects based on the information collected by the camera and broadcast to the user through the speaker. For example, when the user holds the water cup and walks or places the water cup, the object recognition module recognizes the picture or video information collected by the camera and performs voice broadcast through the speaker to remind the user of the situation of the current environment.

[0031] The Bluetooth module is used to connect the water cup to other Bluetooth devices to achieve wireless communication.

[0032] The temperature sensor is set at the bottom of the first device compartment to facilitate measuring the water temperature in the cup body. At the same time, the measured temperature can also be broadcast to the user through the speaker.

[0033] The gyroscope is used to detect the placement position of the water cup, such as whether it is tilted, etc.

[0034] The heating plate is used to heat the water in the cup body. A water level detector is provided on the heating plate. The water level detector includes a water level detection sensor and a calculation module, which can not only detect the height of the water level, but also calculate the amount of water the user drinks within a certain time range (such as within a day) by detecting the change of the water level. For example, if it is detected that the cup body is empty, a reminder to add water will be issued through the speaker; if during the day, it is detected that the water in the cup has not changed, the user will be automatically scanned or an alarm will be issued to the relevant guardian.

[0035] The positioning module includes a GPS positioning module or a Beidou positioning module, which is used to obtain the current geographical location of the water cup. When the user carries the water cup out, the positioning module can help the guardian understand the user's location through the background.

[0036] The first power supply module and the second power supply module are respectively used to supply power to the devices in the first device compartment and the second device compartment; specifically, it can be a rechargeable battery, etc.

[0037] The motor can specifically be a micro motor, which is used to drive the cup body to rotate, thereby driving the camera to scan the surrounding environment. Specifically, the cavity on the cup body is a cavity with an upper opening, and a coupling shaft 311 linked to the motor is provided at the bottom of the cavity. When the motor rotates, the cup body is driven to rotate through the coupling shaft. Preferably, the coupling shaft is arranged at the center of the bottom of the cavity; the size of the heating plate is equivalent to the size of the bottom of the cavity, and it passes through the coupling shaft and is closely attached to the bottom of the cavity.

[0038] Furthermore, a water outlet 209 and a flip cover 210 are also provided on the lid; the water outlet is independent of the first device compartment; one end of the flip cover is movably connected to the lid, and the other end is used to cover the mouth of the water outlet.

[0039] Furthermore, a wireless charging pad 400 is also included. The wireless charging pad is used to charge the devices in the second device compartment; a wireless charging coil is also integrated on the second PCB board. When the base is placed on the wireless charging pad, the gyroscope is used to detect the docking state between the wireless charging coil and the wireless charging pad.

[0040] The above is an elaboration on the multi-functional water cup for the blind and its usage method of the present invention, which is used to help understand the present invention; however, the implementation manners of the present invention are not limited by the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications made without departing from the principle of the present invention shall be equivalent replacement manners and are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
