[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] The utility model provides a paper cup with tea leaves. Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, it includes a cup body 1, a tea bin is arranged at the lower part of the interior of the cup body 1, a filter screen is arranged on the top of the tea bin, the outer side of the filter screen is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the cup body 1, the filter screen is made of corn fiber, put into the inside of the paper cup, and the edge that fits the inside of the cup is heated to 170-200 degrees to make the corn fiber in a molten state, and then cooled to make it bonded to the inner wall of the cup, the outer side of the cup body 1 is provided with an anti-scalding shell 3, the height of the anti-scalding shell 3 is generally about 2 / 3 of the height of the cup body 1, a tea bin for placing tea leaves is arranged at the lower part of the filter screen, the filter screen adopts a first filter screen 2 with a hemispherical structure or a second filter screen 5 with an elliptical inclined arrangement, and a sealing film 6 is arranged on the top of the filter screen, and the sealing film 6 is detachably fixed to the inner wall of the cup body 1.

[0025] In this embodiment, the cup body 1 includes a three-layer structure, the inner layer is a waterproof layer 11, the outer side of the waterproof layer 11 is provided with a main body layer 12, and the outer side of the main body layer 12 is provided with an anti-slip layer 13. The waterproof layer 11 is generally made of polyethylene (PE) or other plastic materials with excellent waterproof performance. Polyethylene is a common plastic and is widely used as the internal waterproof layer of paper cups due to its good waterproofness and durability. It can effectively prevent liquid from penetrating into the paper part of the paper cup, thereby keeping the paper cup dry and strong. The main body layer 12 is mainly made of pulp or aluminum foil. Pulp is a cardboard material processed from plant fibers. It constitutes the main structure of the paper cup and provides the necessary strength and shape. Pulp can be prepared from a variety of plant fibers, such as wood pulp, bamboo pulp, etc., among which wood pulp is one of the most commonly used raw materials. Aluminum foil has high strength and is not easy to damage. The anti-slip layer 13 is generally made of materials with anti-slip properties, such as silicone, rubber or TPR (thermoplastic rubber). These materials have good anti-slip and wear resistance, can increase the friction of the outer surface of the paper cup, and prevent users from falling due to hand slipping when using it. In addition, these anti-slip materials also usually have good touch and comfort, improving the user experience.

[0026] Specifically, the inner wall of the anti-scalding shell 3 fits with the outer wall of the cup body 1, and a limiting ring 4 is installed on the outer side of the top of the anti-scalding shell 3 to facilitate hand holding and limit the position to prevent the hand from slipping.

[0027] Furthermore, the outer side of the sealing film 6 is connected and fixed to the inner wall of the cup body 1 by an adhesive strip 61, and a pull ring 62 is connected to the top of the sealing film 6. When it is convenient to use, the pull ring 62 is pulled up to detach the sealing film 6, thereby exposing the filter screen for easy use.

[0028] Furthermore, the first filter 2 includes a hemispherical mesh surface 21, and a corrugated expansion ring 22 is connected to the bottom of the hemispherical mesh surface 21. The bottom of the corrugated expansion ring 22 is connected to the bottom of the cup body 1. The corrugated expansion ring 22 can be expanded and stretched when brewing tea, thereby increasing the tea warehouse space and facilitating the full expansion of tea leaves. The cross-section of the hemispherical mesh surface 21 forms an angle of 15-45 degrees with the bottom of the cup body 1. The design is in a spherical state because the tilted state of the filter will cause the tea warehouse to occupy too much space when the cups are buckled one by one, which is not conducive to storage and sale together (generally 10 are packaged as a whole in a plastic box). If the filter is designed as a spherical filter, the overall volume is smaller when two cups are buckled. It is convenient for transportation and sales.

[0029] Furthermore, the second filter 5 includes an elliptical mesh surface 51, and a positioning ring 52 is installed on the outer side of the elliptical mesh surface 51. The outer side of the positioning ring 52 is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the cup body 1. The elliptical mesh surface 51 is tilted inside the cup body 1, forming an angle of 15-45 degrees with the bottom of the cup body 1. The angle of 15-45 degrees is formed to allow the tea in the tea compartment to have enough space to expand after being soaked in hot water because of the property of tea leaves to absorb water and expand. In addition, when the filter is in an inclined state, it is convenient to form a vortex when the bottom of the cup is gently shaken. When the concentrated tea soup is thrown out from the tea compartment on one side and then flows back to the tea compartment on the other side, due to the blocking effect of the filter and the stretched tea leaves inside, a part of it flows back into the tea compartment, and the other part diffuses upward along the inclined surface of the filter. Finally, after multiple shaking, the tea soup is fully mixed at the upper and lower ends, thereby achieving the goal of rapid and uniform mixing.

[0030] Furthermore, the cup body 1 is a cylindrical structure, and the internal space gradually becomes smaller from the top to the bottom, so that the cup bodies can be stacked in sequence from top to bottom during storage.

[0031] When using the paper cup with tea leaves of the utility model, the sealing film 6 is first torn off, and the sealing film 6 is separated from the adhesive strip 61 by pulling the pull ring 62 to expose the filter screen below. The filter screen is made of corn fiber, which is melted after heating to 170-200 degrees, and then cooled and firmly bonded to the inner wall of the cup body. The filter screen is divided into two types, one is a first filter screen 2 with a hemispherical structure, and the other is an elliptical second filter screen 5 with an inclined setting. Regardless of the type of filter screen, a tea warehouse is provided at the bottom for storing tea leaves.

[0032] Next, the user adds hot water to the paper cup, and the tea leaves begin to soak and expand. Due to the design of the filter, whether it is a hemispherical or elliptical tilt setting, it provides enough space for the tea leaves to expand. At the same time, this tilted design also helps to form a vortex when gently shaking the paper cup, so that the tea soup can be mixed more fully and ensure that the concentration of the tea is evenly distributed.

[0033] During the tea brewing process, the anti-scalding shell 3 prevents the user's hands from being scalded, and its inner wall is tightly fitted with the outer wall of the cup body 1, providing a good heat insulation effect. At the same time, a limiting ring 4 is installed on the outer side of the top of the anti-scalding shell 3 to facilitate the user's hand holding and prevent the hand from slipping.

[0034] When the user drinks tea, the filter will effectively prevent the tea leaves from entering the mouth, ensuring a refreshing drink. The cup body 1 of the paper cup adopts a three-layer structure design, including a waterproof layer 11, a main layer 12 and an anti-skid layer 13. The waterproof layer 11 is made of polyethylene PE or other materials with excellent waterproof properties to effectively prevent liquid from penetrating into the paper part of the paper cup. The main layer 12 is mainly made of pulp or aluminum foil, providing the main structure and strength of the paper cup. The anti-skid layer 13 is made of anti-skid materials such as silicone and rubber, which increases the friction of the outer surface of the paper cup to prevent the paper cup from slipping in the hands of the user.

[0035] Throughout the use process, this paper cup with tea leaves not only provides a convenient tea drinking experience through its unique design and structure, but also optimizes the brewing process and improves the quality of the tea. After the user enjoys the tea, the paper cup can be easily discarded, and since it is made of environmentally friendly materials, it also meets environmental protection requirements.

[0036] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only preferred examples of the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection of the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
