Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a liquid container, and more particularly to a spring-loaded cap structure and a bottle. Background Technology

[0002] Existing flip-top bottle caps generally consist of two parts: a cap holder and a flip cap. The flip cap and the cap holder are connected by a flexible connecting strip. When the flip cap is opened, the connecting strip moves accordingly. In reality, the flip cap is only opened when the liquid inside the bottle is being used, so the flip cap is in a closed state for a long time. This causes the connecting strip to undergo a certain degree of permanent deformation, i.e., to maintain the shape when the flip cap is closed. When the flip cap is opened, the connecting strip is straightened (or nearly straightened). At this time, the connecting strip has a certain degree of elasticity, causing the flip cap to have a tendency to spring back. Therefore, it directly affects the user's experience, such as the flip cap springing back and hitting the user's face. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a bottle cap structure and a bottle that prevents rebound.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is: A spring-loaded bottle cap structure and bottle are disclosed, comprising a bottle and a bottle cap. The bottle cap consists of a flip cover and a bottle cap seat. The bottle cap seat is installed on the bottle mouth. A bottle neck ring is provided on the bottle mouth. The flip cover and the bottle cap seat are connected by a connecting strap. When the flip cover is flipped open, the bottom surface of the flip cover abuts against the bottom surface of the bottle neck ring, thus locking the flip cover in place.

[0005] The bottle cap has a first long tear line and a first short tear line along the circumference. The connecting strip is not parallel to the first long tear line. The two sides of the connecting strip have a first inner cut and a first outer cut, respectively. The first inner cut is connected to the first short tear line, and the first outer cut is connected to the first long tear line.

[0006] The bottle cap has a first long tear line along the circumference, the connecting strip is parallel to the first long tear line, and the bottle cap has a second long tear line along the circumference below the first long tear line. The connecting strip is naturally formed between the first long tear line and the second long tear line.

[0007] The flap is provided with a folding part between the connecting strips, and the connecting strips are connected to the folding part.

[0008] The folded portion is provided with symmetrical second short tear lines, which are connected to the first long tear line.

[0009] The folded portion is provided with a third short tear line along the circumferential direction, and the two ends of the third short tear line are aligned with the ends of the second short tear line.

[0010] The folded portion is provided with a crease line along the circumferential direction, and the two ends of the crease line are aligned with the ends of the second short tear line.

[0011] A first extension band is provided between the folded portion and the connecting band, and the first extension band and the connecting band are non-parallel structures.

[0012] The first extension band has a second inner incision and a second outer incision on both sides. The second inner incision is connected to the second long tear line, and the second outer incision is connected to the first long tear line.

[0013] The folded portion is provided with a fourth short tear line, and the two ends of the fourth short tear line are connected to the second inner side cut.

[0014] The folding section is also provided with a second extension band connected to the first extension band. The second extension band has a third inner slit and a third outer slit on both sides. The third inner slit is connected to the second inner slit, and the third outer slit is connected to the second outer slit.

[0015] The folded portion is provided with a fourth short tear line, and the two ends of the fourth short tear line are connected to the third inner side cut.

[0016] The bottom surface of the bottleneck ring is provided with several protrusions arranged circumferentially. After the cover is opened, the protrusions are inserted into the inner wall of the cover.

[0017] A spring-loaded bottle cap structure and a bottle, comprising a bottle cap consisting of a flip cap and a cap seat, the cap seat being installed on the bottle mouth, the flip cap having a folding portion, the folding portion being connected to the cap seat by two symmetrical connecting straps, when the flip cap is opened, the folding portion is outwardly folded, and the connecting straps are stretched to have a contractile force, thus limiting the spring-loaded portion.

[0018] The folded part is provided with fold lines.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this invention are: a neck ring is provided on the bottle mouth, and the flip cover and the bottle cap seat are connected by a connecting strap. After the flip cover is opened, the bottom surface of the flip cover abuts against the bottom surface of the neck ring, locking the flip cover and fixing it directly, thus limiting the flip cover's rebound. This can easily solve the problem of the flip cover directly contacting the user's face when drinking water. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0023] It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0024] The following describes some embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Example 1: Refer to Figure 1-3 A spring-loaded bottle cap structure and bottle are disclosed, comprising a bottle 1 and a bottle cap 2. The bottle cap 2 consists of a flip cover 3 and a bottle cap seat 4. The bottle cap seat 4 is installed on the mouth of the bottle 1. A neck ring 5 is provided on the mouth of the bottle 1. The flip cover 3 and the bottle cap seat 4 are connected by a connecting strap 8. When the flip cover 3 is flipped open (the flip angle is 180°), the bottom surface of the flip cover 3 abuts against the bottom surface of the neck ring 5, locking the flip cover 3 and directly fixing the flip cover, limiting the spring-loaded flip cover. This can easily solve the problem of the flip cover directly contacting the user's face when drinking water.

[0026] The bottle cap 2 has a first long tear line 9 and a first short tear line 10 along its circumference. The connecting strip 8 is not parallel to the first long tear line 9. The connecting strip 8 has a first inner cut 11 and a first outer cut 12 on its two sides, respectively. The first inner cut 11 communicates with the first short tear line 10, and the first outer cut 12 communicates with the first long tear line 9. Figure 3 As shown in AD, the cross-section of the connecting strip 8 can be an arc structure, a straight structure, a wavy structure, etc. The connecting strip 8 can be perpendicular to the first long tear line 9, or form an acute angle or an obtuse angle; the two connecting strips 8 can be parallel, or they can form an included angle (e.g., Figure 2 (As shown).

[0027] Example 2: Reference Figure 4 , 7 The bottle cap 2 has a first long tear line 9 along the circumferential direction. The connecting band 8 is parallel to the first long tear line 9. The bottle cap 2 has a second long tear line 13 along the circumferential direction below the first long tear line 9. The connecting band 8 is naturally formed between the first long tear line 9 and the second long tear line 13. The flip cap 3 has a folding part 14 between the connecting bands 8. The connecting band 8 is connected to the folding part 14. The folding part 14 has symmetrical second short tear lines 15. The second short tear lines 15 are connected to the first long tear line 9.

[0028] Example 3: Reference Figure 5 , 7 The folded portion 14 is provided with a third short tear line 16 along the circumferential direction, and the two ends of the third short tear line 16 are aligned with the ends of the second short tear line 15.

[0029] Example 4: Reference Figure 6 , 7 The folded portion 14 is provided with a crease line 17 along the circumferential direction, and the two ends of the crease line 17 are aligned with the ends of the second short tear line 15.

[0030] In Examples 3 and 4, a third short tear line 16 and a crease line 17 are added respectively to Example 2. Compared with Example 2, the folding part 14 in Examples 3 and 4 is easier to fold, that is, the flip cover 3 can be opened more easily.

[0031] Example 5, Reference Figure 8 , 11A first extension band 18 is provided between the folded portion 14 and the connecting band 8. The first extension band 18 and the connecting band 8 are non-parallel structures. A second inner slit 19 and a second outer slit 20 are provided on both sides of the first extension band 18. The second inner slit 19 is connected to the second long tear line 13, and the second outer slit 20 is connected to the first long tear line 9. A fourth short tear line 21 is provided on the folded portion 14. The two ends of the fourth short tear line 21 are connected to the second inner slit 19.

[0032] Example 6, Reference Figure 9-11 The folding portion 14 is further provided with a second extension band 22 connected to the first extension band 18. The second extension band 22 has a third inner slit 23 and a third outer slit 24 on both sides. The third inner slit 23 is connected to the second inner slit 19, and the third outer slit 24 is connected to the second outer slit 20. The folding portion 14 is provided with a fourth short tear line 21, and the two ends of the fourth short tear line 21 are connected to the third inner slit 23.

[0033] The function of the fourth short tear line 21 in embodiments 5 and 6 is to make the folding part 14 easier to fold, that is, the flap 3 can be opened more easily.

[0034] Example 6 adds the second extension band 22 to Example 5, making Example 6 more suitable for the bottle cap 2 with a higher height than Example 5, while Example 5 is more suitable for the bottle cap 2 with a lower angle. Furthermore, the first extension band 18 can be a straight structure, such as... Figure 8 , 9 As shown, it can also be an arc structure, such as... Figure 10 As shown.

[0035] The bottom surface of the neck ring 5 is provided with several circumferentially arranged protrusions 6. After the flip cover 3 is opened, the protrusions 6 are inserted into the inner wall of the flip cover 3. The protrusions 6 can be composed of several protrusions or a continuous protruding ring structure. The protrusions 6 can be arranged along the entire circle of the neck ring 5 or partially arranged on the neck ring 5 between the two connecting bands 8. This structure requires that the bottle cap 2 is fixed when it is installed on the bottle 1. For example, the bottle cap 2 and the bottle 1 are installed by threads. When the bottle cap 2 is screwed to the limit, the position of the protrusions 6 is aligned with the position of the two connecting bands 8.

[0036] A spring-loaded bottle cap structure and bottle, comprising a bottle cap 2, the bottle cap 2 consisting of a flip cap 3 and a bottle cap seat 4, the bottle cap seat 4 being mounted on the mouth of a bottle 1, the flip cap 3 having a folding portion 14, the folding portion 14 being connected to the bottle cap seat 4 by two symmetrical connecting straps 8, when the flip cap 3 is opened less than 180°, the connecting straps 8 are straightened (at this time the connecting straps 8 are not stretched), the flip cap 3 is restricted from continuing to flip backward, at this time a greater force is applied, forcibly flipping the flip cap 3 backward, the connecting straps 8 are stretched, and the folding portion 14 is pulled, so that the folding portion 14 is folded outward (at this time the opening angle of the flip cap 3 is greater than 180°), when the hand is released, the connecting straps 8 retract, and the flip cap 3 continues to flip backward until the flip cap 3 contacts the bottle cap seat 4 or the bottle 1, or when the connecting straps 8 return to their original length, that is, the flip cap 3 is fully opened.

[0037] The folding part 14 is provided with fold lines. When the folding part 14 is folded, it will be folded along the fold lines, reducing the difficulty of folding the folding part 14.
