Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of liquid container technology, and more particularly to a double-lid container. Background Technology

[0002] Switching between dual drinking modes has always been a pain point in the design of drinking container lids. In order to enable drinking containers to have dual drinking modes, various lids have emerged one after another.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN105916411B discloses a lid suitable for a container, comprising a spout on the lid body, a first opening in the spout providing a first fluid path to fluid disposed in a reservoir of the attached container, a second opening within the spout providing a second fluid path to fluid disposed in the reservoir of the attached container, wherein the second opening has a rectangular shape; a straw connection portion fluidly communicating with the second opening, the straw connection portion having a circular cross-section; and a straw having an end configured to be received at the straw connection portion to allow the second fluid path to extend into the reservoir of the attached container, the straw having a circular cross-section. A common wall separating the first and second openings is also included.

[0004] Although this solution offers dual drinking modes, the two modes coexist without switching. In straw mode, if the angle is too large, the liquid will flow out of the drinking spout. This technical solution is merely a stopgap measure.

[0005] Chinese patent CN214341531U discloses a container lid, a water outlet control screw for the container lid, and a drinking container, including a water outlet control screw and a water outlet valve; the lid body has a container inner cavity connection port and a straw connection port; the water outlet valve is fixedly disposed in the middle of the lid body, and the inner cavity of the water outlet valve has a water outlet hole for pouring mode communicating with the container inner cavity connection port and a water outlet hole for straw mode communicating with the straw connection port; the water outlet control screw is rotatably disposed on the lid body, and a tube with a mouthpiece is disposed on the water outlet control screw, the tube having a through hole and being inserted into the inner cavity of the water outlet valve; when the water outlet control screw rotates, a pouring mode can be formed in which the through hole, the pouring mode water outlet hole, and the container inner cavity connection port are interconnected.

[0006] This technical solution truly achieves the switching between direct drinking and straw drinking modes by changing the water outlet of the water valve, rather than a vague coexistence of the two modes. However, the water outlet valve has a complex structure and requires a water outlet control knob, resulting in numerous parts, complicated processing, troublesome assembly, low production efficiency, and high costs. The solution is not ideal. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dual-drinking lid for a container, which mainly solves the problems of cumbersome switching between direct drinking and straw use, and the complex structure of the lid that is difficult to assemble in the prior art.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0009] A double-drinking cap for a container includes a cap body and a spout disposed on the cap body, wherein a first liquid channel is provided in the spout, extending from the upper surface to the lower surface of the cap body.

[0010] The upper surface of the cap body is provided with a recess facing the lower surface, and a through hole is provided at the bottom of the recess; the part of the suction nozzle located in the recess is provided with a drainage port, which is connected to the through hole through the recess and forms a second liquid channel; a switching element that can block or connect the second liquid channel is provided in the recess; when the switching element blocks the drainage port, the second liquid channel is blocked; when the switching element does not block or does not completely block the drainage port, the second liquid channel is connected.

[0011] The switching component includes an operating part and a blocking part that are connected to each other. The operating part has a through socket, and the switching component is sleeved on the nozzle through the socket. The blocking part is located in the recess. By controlling the raising or lowering of the operating part on the nozzle, the blocking part can be opened or blocked from the drain port, thereby connecting or blocking the second liquid channel.

[0012] The switching component is stepped, and the upper part of the blocking part is located at the bottom edge of the operating part.

[0013] The switching element is made of silicone.

[0014] A limiting cover is provided at the opening of the recessed part. The limiting cover is provided with a perforation. The limiting cover is fitted onto the suction nozzle through the perforation and covers the opening of the recessed part.

[0015] The limiting cover is provided with a snap-fit ​​part, which snaps into the cover body.

[0016] The upper cover is pivotally connected to the main body of the cover, and when the upper cover covers the main body of the cover, it covers the mouthpiece.

[0017] The first liquid channel is located at the opening on the lower surface of the cover body, where a straw insertion part is provided.

[0018] The lid and the nozzle are molded as one piece.

[0019] The advantages of this invention are: 1. It creatively creates a recessed portion with a through hole at the bottom on the cap body and a flow outlet at the bottom of the spout, thereby creating a second liquid channel on the cap body; 2. The switching component makes switching between direct drinking and straw drinking methods quick and convenient; 3. The operating part of the switching component is sleeved on the spout, ensuring both the stability of the switching component's position and the stability of its operation, while also achieving convenient switching; 4. The limiting cover plate is connected to the cap body in a snap-fit ​​manner, ensuring that the switching component will not detach from the recessed portion and that switching can be achieved within a short distance; 5. The design of the switching component greatly reduces the number of parts in the product, significantly lowers the cost, facilitates installation, and greatly improves production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this patent.

[0029] To simplify the description of this embodiment, some components that are well-known to those skilled in the art but are not related to the main content of this invention may be omitted in the accompanying drawings or description. Additionally, for ease of description, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, but these do not represent the actual product dimensions or the complete structure.

[0030] This invention discloses a double-lid body for a container, such as... Figure 1-7 As shown, the device includes a lid body 1 and a suction nozzle 2. The suction nozzle 2 is disposed on the upper surface of the lid body 1 and protrudes from the upper surface of the lid body 1. Preferably, the lid body 1 and the suction nozzle 2 are integrally formed.

[0031] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a first liquid channel 21 is provided inside the nozzle 2, extending from the upper surface to the lower surface of the cap body 1. Furthermore, a straw insertion part 23 is provided at the opening of the first liquid channel 21 on the lower surface of the cap body 1. When the cap body 1 is placed over the container opening, the liquid inside the container can be drawn out from the nozzle 2 through the straw and the first liquid channel 21. The first liquid channel 21 is the straw drinking method in dual-drinking.

[0032] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the upper surface of the cover body 1 is provided with a recess 11 facing the lower surface, the lower part of the suction nozzle 2 is located in the recess 11, and a through hole 12 is provided at the bottom of the recess 11, the through hole 12 penetrates the upper and lower surfaces of the cover body 1.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, the portion of the nozzle 2 located within the recess 11 is provided with a flow port 22. The flow port 22 is connected to the through hole 12 through the recess 11 to form a second liquid channel. The second liquid channel allows liquid to enter the nozzle 2 from the through hole 12, through the recess 11, and then through the flow port 22. The second liquid channel is the direct drinking method in the dual drinking method.

[0034] To switch between straw drinking and direct drinking methods, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown, a switching element 3 capable of blocking or connecting the second liquid channel is provided within the recessed portion 11; as Figure 2 As shown, when the switching component 3 does not block or does not completely block the drainage port 22, the second liquid channel is connected, enabling direct drinking. Figure 1 As shown, when the switching component 3 blocks the drainage port 22, the second liquid channel is blocked, and the liquid can only be drawn out by the nozzle 2 through the first liquid channel 21 via a straw.

[0035] Preferably, such as Figure 5 As shown, the switching component 3 includes an operating part 31 and a blocking part 32 connected to each other. The operating part 31 has a through socket 33. The switching component 3 is stepped, and the upper part of the blocking part 32 is located at the bottom edge of the operating part 31. The switching component 3 is fitted onto the suction nozzle 2 through the socket 33, and the blocking part 32 is located in the recess 11. Figure 2As shown, the control unit 31 rises on the nozzle 2, thereby causing the sealing part 32 to rise in the recess 11. When the sealing part 32 rises to expose the drain port 22, that is, when the drain port 22 is not blocked or not completely blocked, the passage between the drain port 22 and the through hole 12 is connected, and the second liquid channel is established, so that the liquid can be poured out from the nozzle 2 in a direct drinking manner.

[0036] When you need to switch to straw drinking mode, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control unit 31 descends on the suction nozzle 2, thereby causing the sealing part 32 to descend within the recess 11. When the sealing part 32 completely blocks the drain port 22, the second liquid channel is blocked, and the liquid can only be sucked out by the suction nozzle 2 through the first liquid channel 21, but cannot be poured out of the suction nozzle 2 through the first liquid channel 21.

[0037] Preferably, the switching component 3 is made of silicone, which is convenient for both installation and replacement.

[0038] To ensure that the switching component does not detach from the nozzle 2 during switching, a limiting cover 4 is provided at the opening of the recess 11, such as... Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the limiting cover plate 4 is provided with a through hole 41. The limiting cover plate 4 is fitted onto the suction nozzle 2 through the through hole 41 and covers the opening of the recess (11). The limiting cover plate 4 is provided with a snap-fit ​​part 42, which snaps into the cover body 1. The operating part 31 of the switching member 3 also passes through the through hole 41, and the switching member 3 slides on the suction nozzle 2 through the through hole 41.

[0039] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, for hygiene and safe carrying, an upper cover 5 is provided. The upper cover 5 is pivotally connected to the cover body 1. When the upper cover 5 covers the cover body 1, it covers the nozzle 2, thus ensuring that the liquid in the container will not flow out.

[0040] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of the invention. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should be considered within the technical scope of this invention.
