Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of drinking water equipment technology, specifically to a water cup with a height adjustment mechanism for water quality optimization. Background Technology
[0002] Water cups are common drinking utensils in daily life, widely used in various scenarios such as home, office, and outdoor travel. Currently, ordinary water cups on the market only have the basic functions of storing and holding water, and do not have water quality optimization or purification functions. When users drink tap water or water that has been left to stand, the water is prone to contain impurities, odors, and trace amounts of harmful substances, which are detrimental to health in the long run.
[0003] As people become increasingly aware of healthy drinking water, smart water cups with water quality optimization and testing functions are gradually becoming more common. Currently, most smart water purifier cups on the market have fixed-installation water quality optimization chambers that are constantly submerged in water. Prolonged submersion can lead to excessive leaching and aging of the optimization materials, reducing the water quality optimization effect and increasing the risk of microbial growth, causing secondary pollution and affecting drinking water safety. Furthermore, most water cups have limited functionality, failing to provide real-time water quality monitoring, data display, or intelligent alerts, thus failing to meet users' refined and intelligent drinking water needs. Finally, a water purifier cup should have a low learning curve, allowing users to master its use through their everyday appliance usage habits without needing to consult an instruction manual.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a water cup with a reasonable structure, convenient assembly and disassembly, the ability to start and stop water quality optimization as needed, simple water purification operation, and intelligent water quality detection function, which is coordinated with the start and stop of water quality optimization. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problems in the prior art, such as the fixed installation of water quality optimization chambers, the tendency of water quality optimization chambers to fail and generate secondary pollution due to long-term immersion in water, the lack of intelligent water quality detection function, and the inability of the intelligent water quality detection function to coordinate with the start and stop of water quality optimization.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention A water cup with a liftable water quality optimization device includes a cup body and a cup lid, and the cup lid is provided with a water quality intelligent detection component and a water quality optimization device lifting component. The intelligent water quality detection component includes a water quality sensor located under the cup lid, an MCU main control module located inside the cup lid, a prompt module, a water quality detection module, a storage module, a function setting module, and a power module. The MCU main control module compares the set values stored in the storage module with the real-time values transmitted by the water quality detection module. During the water quality optimization process, it sends a prompt message to the prompt module to indicate the water quality optimization process. The prompting module is set as a sound prompting device, which receives sound signals sent by the MCU main control module and emits optimization status prompts to broadcast the water quality optimization process and results; The prompt module is set as a display module, which receives display signals sent by the MCU main control module to present optimization status prompt graphics or text, and displays the water quality optimization process and water quality optimization results; The prompt module is set as a light module, which receives light signals sent by the MCU main control module to display the optimization status prompt light, and prompts the water quality optimization process and water quality optimization results; One end of the water quality sensor is inserted into the water cup to contact the water and continuously collect water quality information; the other end is connected to the water quality detection module. The water quality detection module analyzes the water quality information collected by the water quality sensor and transmits the water quality data to the MCU main control module. The storage module is used to store data information from the MCU main control module; The function setting module works with the MCU main control module to perform real-time function switching and value input. The input data is transmitted to the storage module via the MCU main control module. The power module is electrically connected to the aforementioned module to provide a stable power supply for the operation of the device; The lifting assembly of the water quality optimization device is inserted into the lifting screw and the water quality optimization cavity, which are installed vertically downward at the bottom of the cup lid. The water quality optimization cavity has a threaded through hole that matches the lifting screw. The lifting screw is threadedly connected to the water quality optimization cavity through the threaded through hole. The forward and reverse rotation of the lifting screw drives the water quality optimization cavity to move up and down along the vertical direction of the lifting screw. A guide straw is installed inside the cup lid, with its lower end extending to the bottom of the cup's inner cavity and its upper end protruding from the cup lid. A guide hole matching the guide straw is opened on the water quality optimization cavity. The guide straw is vertically inserted into the guide hole, and the inner wall of the guide hole and the outer wall of the guide straw are fitted with a clearance to form a lifting guide track for the water quality optimization cavity. The guide straw and the lifting screw cooperate with each other, and the forward and reverse rotation of the lifting screw drives the water quality optimization cavity to move up and down along the vertical direction of the lifting screw and the guide straw. The water quality optimization chamber is filled with a water quality optimization medium to optimize water quality. The chamber has a cover; opening the cover allows replacement of the water quality optimization medium. The chamber also has convection holes that communicate with the water body, through which the water quality optimization medium releases water-optimizing ions and adsorbs impurities in the water.
[0007] Work process Under normal conditions, the water quality optimization device is located at the top of the lifting screw. After the user adds water to the cup, they close the lid and press the control button to rotate the lifting screw forward. The water quality optimization device descends along the lifting screw, and the guide tube guides and stabilizes its displacement. Once the device reaches the bottom of the lifting screw, it is immersed in the water and performs adsorption or ion exchange to optimize the water quality. At this time, the water quality sensor extends into the water to continuously collect water quality information and transmits it to the water quality detection module. The water quality detection module analyzes the water quality information in real time, derives water quality data, and transmits it to the MCU main control module. The MCU main control module compares the set values stored in the storage module with the real-time values in the water quality data. If the set values are reached, the water quality optimization is considered complete.
[0008] During water quality optimization, the MCU main control module sends prompts to the prompting module. Once optimization is complete, the MCU main control module instructs the lifting screw to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the water quality optimization device to rise along the screw. The device returns to the top of the lifting screw without contacting the water, thus terminating the optimization process.
[0009] If the water quality optimization is not yet complete, the user can also press the control button to control the lifting screw to rotate in the opposite direction, raise the water quality optimization device in advance, and stop the water quality optimization.
[0010] Furthermore, users can replace the water quality improvement device. First, remove the cup lid from the water cup. Use the control buttons to lower the lifting screw to the bottom and remove the old water quality improvement device. Second, align the threaded through-hole and guide through-hole on the new water quality improvement device with the lifting screw and guide straw on the cup lid, respectively. Then, use the control buttons to raise the lifting screw to the top to complete the replacement.
[0011] Furthermore, a wireless input / output module is set up to perform data input / output with the MCU main control module.
[0012] Furthermore, the water quality sensor includes a detection probe, which is disposed on the side wall of the guide tube at a position that can contact the water. Beneficial effects
[0013] 1. Reasonable structure. The present invention features a guide pipe that runs through the water quality optimization chamber, serving both guiding and drinking functions. The guide pipe can limit and guide the rising and falling water quality optimization chamber, preventing deviation and jamming during the rising and falling process, greatly improving the stability of the structure, simplifying the equipment structure, and reducing production costs.
[0014] 2. Easy to assemble and disassemble. The water quality optimization chamber of this invention is detachable and easy to assemble and disassemble.
[0015] 3. Water quality optimization can be started and stopped as needed. This invention uses a threaded, liftable water quality optimization chamber. Users can control the raising and lowering of the water quality optimization chamber using control buttons as needed. During water quality optimization, it lowers to contact the water body, and after optimization, it rises to detach from the water body. Users can also control the water quality optimization chamber to rise in advance using control buttons.
[0016] 4. Simple water purification operation. This invention lowers the water quality optimization chamber by pressing the control button to optimize the water quality, and automatically raises the chamber after optimization is complete, avoiding over-optimization. The overall operation is simple and convenient.
[0017] 5. Intelligent water quality detection provides an intuitive understanding of water quality status. This invention integrates water quality detection, data display, voice alerts, and parameter storage functions, enabling real-time collection and display of water quality data, allowing users to intuitively understand the water quality status.
[0018] 6. The intelligent water quality detection function works in conjunction with the start and stop of water quality optimization. After the water quality optimization is completed, the MCU main control module automatically instructs the lifting screw to rise into the water quality optimization chamber, without requiring further user operation.

During the water quality optimization process, it sends a prompt message to the prompt module b. The prompting module b can be set as a sound prompting device b1, which receives the sound signal sent by the MCU main control module a and emits an optimization status prompt sound to broadcast the water quality optimization process and water quality optimization results; The prompt module b can be set as a display module b2, which receives the display signal sent by the MCU main control module a and presents the optimization status prompt graphics or text to display the water quality optimization process and water quality optimization results; The prompt module b can be set as the light module b3, which receives the light signal sent by the MCU main control module a and presents the optimization status prompt light to indicate the water quality optimization process and the water quality optimization result; One end of the water quality sensor d is inserted into the water cup to contact the water and continuously collect water quality information; the other end is connected to the water quality detection module e. The water quality detection module e analyzes the water quality information collected by the water quality sensor d and transmits the water quality data to the MCU main control module a. The storage module f is used to store data information from the MCU main control module a; The function setting module c works with the MCU main control module a to perform real-time function switching and value input. The input data is transmitted to the storage module f via the MCU main control module a for storage. The power module g is electrically connected to the aforementioned module to provide a stable power supply for the operation of the device; The lifting assembly of the water quality optimization device is inserted into the lifting screw 11 and the water quality optimization cavity 111, which are vertically installed downwards at the bottom of the cup lid 1. The water quality optimization cavity 111 has a threaded through hole 1111 that matches the lifting screw 11. The lifting screw 11 is threadedly connected to the water quality optimization cavity 111 through the threaded through hole 1111. The forward and reverse rotation of the lifting screw 11 drives the water quality optimization cavity 111 to move up and down along the vertical direction of the lifting screw 11. A guide straw 12 is provided inside the cup lid 1, with its lower end extending to the bottom of the inner cavity of the cup body 2 and its upper end extending out of the cup lid 1; a guide through hole 1112 matching the guide straw 12 is provided on the water quality optimization cavity 111; the guide straw 12 is vertically inserted into the guide through hole 1112, and the inner wall of the guide through hole 1112 is clearance-fitted with the outer wall of the guide straw 12, forming a lifting guide track for the water quality optimization cavity 111; the guide straw 12 and the lifting screw 11 cooperate with each other, and the forward and reverse rotation of the lifting screw 11 drives the water quality optimization cavity 111 to move up and down along the vertical direction of the lifting screw 11 and the guide straw 12; The water quality optimization chamber 111 is filled with a water quality optimization medium to optimize water quality. The water quality optimization chamber 111 is equipped with a cover 1113; opening the cover 1113 allows replacement of the water quality optimization medium within the chamber. The water quality optimization chamber 111 is also equipped with a convection hole 1114 that communicates with the water body, through which the water quality optimization medium releases water quality optimization ions into the water within the cup body 2.
[0023] Work process Under normal conditions, the water quality optimization device is located at the top of the lifting screw 11. After the user adds water to the cup, they close the cup lid 1 and control the lifting screw 11 to rotate forward by pressing the control button. The water quality optimization device descends along the lifting screw 11, and the guide straw 12 provides guidance for the displacement of the water quality optimization device, stabilizing its displacement direction. The water quality optimization device descends to the bottom of the lifting screw 11 and is immersed in the water to perform water quality optimization. At this time, the water quality sensor d extends into the water to continuously collect water quality information and transmits it to the water quality detection module e. The water quality detection module e analyzes the water quality information in real time to obtain water quality data and transmits it to the MCU main control module a. The MCU main control module a calls the set value stored in the storage module f and compares it with the real-time value in the water quality data. If the set value is reached, the water quality optimization is determined to be complete.
[0024] During the water quality optimization process, the MCU main control module a sends a prompt message to the prompt module b indicating the progress of the optimization. Once the optimization is complete, the MCU main control module a instructs the lifting screw 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the water quality optimization device to rise along the screw 11. The water quality optimization device returns to the top of the lifting screw 11 without contacting the water, thus terminating the optimization process.
[0025] If the water quality optimization is not yet completed, the user can also press the control button to control the lifting screw 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, raise the water quality optimization device in advance, and stop the water quality optimization.
[0026] Furthermore, the user can replace the water quality optimization device. First, remove the cup lid 1 from the water cup. Use the control button to lower the lifting screw 11 to the bottom and remove the old water quality optimization device. Second, align the threaded through hole 1111 and guide through hole 1112 on the new water quality optimization device with the lifting screw 11 and guide straw 12 on the cup lid 1, respectively. Then, use the control button to raise the lifting screw 11 to the top to complete the replacement.
[0027] Furthermore, a wireless input / output module h is set to perform data input / output with the MCU main control module a.
