Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cup lid technology, and more particularly to a dual-drink cup lid and a magnetic coffee cup. Background Technology

[0002] As consumers increasingly demand convenient beverage carrying and drinking, dual-drinking cup lids with straws and direct drinking functions (such as those on travel mugs and sports bottles) are becoming more and more popular. These lids allow users to flexibly choose to drink through a straw or directly from the rim, depending on the usage scenario and personal habits, making them especially suitable for various occasions such as travel, driving, and sports.

[0003] Currently, most dual-drink cup lids on the market rely on mechanical switching mechanisms to achieve the conversion between two drinking modes. Common implementations include: setting separate straw ejection buttons and direct drinking spout sliders, requiring users to operate two different components separately; or using complex linkage and slide rail mechanisms, where a single actuating element simultaneously controls the straw's raising and lowering and the sealing lid's opening and closing. These traditional solutions generally suffer from the following drawbacks: First, the structure is complex with a large number of parts. Multiple independent moving parts (such as buttons, sliders, springs, and pivots) increase mold costs, assembly difficulty, and failure rate. The complex internal structure also makes the cup lid difficult to clean thoroughly, easily accumulating dirt and grime, posing a hygiene hazard.

[0004] Secondly, the user experience is poor and reliability is insufficient. Users may need considerable force or two steps to switch modes, which is not convenient or smooth enough. After long-term use, mechanical parts are prone to jamming, malfunction, or poor sealing due to wear, aging, or liquid corrosion, leading to liquid leakage from gaps.

[0005] Furthermore, it is difficult to simultaneously ensure both sealing performance and reliable linkage between mode switching. When the straw is raised, the drinking channel must be reliably sealed; conversely, the straw channel must also be properly sealed during drinking. Traditional mechanical structures are prone to seal failure due to component tolerances or deformation after frequent switching, leading to leakage.

[0006] Furthermore, some designs attempt to utilize magnetic assistance for positioning or closing, but their magnetic components are typically single-function, used only for adsorption and fixation, and not deeply integrated with the core driving and switching actions. The overall structure of the cup lid still falls into the trap of multi-part mechanical transmission, and there are still significant limitations in simplifying the structure, improving the smoothness of operation, and enhancing overall reliability.

[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a dual-drinking cup lid solution that is simpler in structure, more intuitive and sensitive in operation, reliable in mode switching, and has excellent sealing performance. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is to provide a double-sided drinking cup lid for covering the cup body, comprising: The cup lid body has an opening on it; A silicone rocker arm is rotatably disposed at the bottom of the cup lid body. The first end of the silicone rocker arm is provided with a first magnetic element, and the second end is connected to a straw. A driving magnet is movably disposed on the top of the cup lid body, and the driving magnet is provided with a first working part and a second working part; The driving magnet has a first position and a second position. When the driving magnet moves to the first position, the first actuating part is located above the first magnetic component, and the second end of the silicone rocker is tilted upward, so that the straw is inserted into the opening for drinking. When the driving magnet moves to the second position, the second actuating part is located above the first magnetic component and exerts an attractive force on the first magnetic component, causing the first end of the silicone rocker to be attracted upward to the bottom of the cup lid body, and causing the second end of the silicone rocker to drive the straw downward and away from the opening for direct drinking.

[0009] Furthermore, the driving magnet is provided with a first working part and a second working part with opposite polarities. The driving magnet has a first position and a second position. When the driving magnet moves to the first position, the first actuating part is located above the first magnetic element and generates a repulsive force on the first magnetic element, causing the second end of the silicone rocker to tilt upward, so that the straw is inserted into the opening for drinking. When the driving magnet moves to the second position, the second actuating part is located above the first magnetic element and generates an attractive force on the first magnetic element, causing the first end of the silicone rocker to be attracted upward to the bottom of the cup lid body, so that the second end of the silicone rocker drives the straw to move downward and away from the opening for direct drinking.

[0010] Furthermore, the driving magnet is circular and rotatably disposed on the cup lid body; the first functional part and the second functional part are respectively a first magnetic block and a second magnetic block disposed on opposite sides of the driving magnet, and the magnetic poles of the first magnetic block and the second magnetic block are oriented in opposite directions.

[0011] Furthermore, the driving magnet is elongated and slidably disposed on the cup lid body; the first functional part and the second functional part are respectively a first magnetic block and a second magnetic block disposed at both ends of the driving magnet, and the magnetic poles of the first magnetic block and the second magnetic block are oriented in opposite directions.

[0012] Furthermore, the middle part of the silicone rocker is connected to the bottom of the cup lid body through a pivot structure, and the first magnetic component is encapsulated inside the first end of the silicone rocker.

[0013] Furthermore, the straw can be detachably connected to the second end of the silicone rocker or integrally formed.

[0014] Furthermore, the cup lid body is provided with an indicator for indicating the current position of the driving magnet.

[0015] A magnetic coffee cup includes a cup body and a double-drinking lid as described above, which is affixed to the cup body.

[0016] The dual-drink cup lid of the present invention, through the above-described magnetic driving scheme, can produce the following significant beneficial effects compared to the prior art: 1. The structure is greatly simplified, reducing manufacturing costs and failure rates: This invention eliminates traditional multi-part mechanical linkage mechanisms (such as buttons, sliders, springs, and linkages), with the core moving parts consisting only of a rotatable silicone rocker and a movable drive magnet. This significant reduction in the number of parts and the compact structure not only lowers mold complexity and production costs but also simplifies the assembly process. Fewer moving parts mean lower wear and a lower risk of jamming, fundamentally improving product reliability and lifespan.

[0017] 2. The user experience is extremely smooth, convenient, and intuitive: Users can switch between two modes simply by sliding or rotating the drive magnet on top of the lid with one hand, using magnetic force to drive the silicone rocker at the bottom without contact. The entire process requires no forceful pressing or step-by-step operation; the movements are light, smooth, and quiet, achieving a convenient "one-finger control" experience. The visual indicators for the magnet's position are clear, and the operating logic (such as sliding towards the straw icon to pop out the straw) is intuitive, minimizing the learning curve for users.

[0018] 3. Reliable sealing performance, effectively preventing leaks: The sealing during mode switching relies on the elasticity of the silicone rocker and its tight fit under magnetic force. In direct drinking mode, the magnetic attraction ensures that the first end of the silicone rocker adheres tightly to the bottom of the lid, reliably sealing the straw channel. In straw mode, magnetic repulsion and structural restraint work together to ensure the straw rises into place. The silicone material has excellent deformation sealing capabilities, and the magnetic force is durable and stable, ensuring the long-term effectiveness of the channel seal in both modes and preventing leakage.

[0019] In summary, this invention, through an innovative combination of magnetic drive and lever principle, achieves ease of operation, reliability of function, durability of structure, and ease of cleaning in an extremely ingenious and simple structure, comprehensively improving the overall performance and user experience of the double-drink cup lid.
