[0026] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] Specific examples are given below.

[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides a water cup with controllable water volume, comprising a transparent water cup 1, a shoulder strap 9, and a cup cover 3 located on the upper part of the transparent water cup 1, wherein the shoulder strap 9 can be connected to the transparent water cup 1;

[0029] A connecting port 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the transparent water cup 1, and the connecting port 2 is threadedly connected to the inner part of the cup cover 3. A protective cover 4 is threadedly connected to the upper part of the cup cover 3. Several equally spaced scale lines 5 are fixedly connected to the front and rear of the outer surface of the transparent water cup 1. A handle 6 is fixedly connected to the middle of the right side of the outer surface of the transparent water cup 1. A connecting hole 7 is opened on the upper front end of the handle 6, and a wrist rope 8 is tied inside the connecting hole 7.

[0030] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, the cup cover 3 includes a cover body 31, a buzzer 310 is provided on the left side of the inside of the cover body 31, a fixing hole 32 is opened at the front of the upper end of the cover body 31, a drinking spout 33 is fixedly connected to the fixing hole 32, a battery and a control mainboard 34 are provided on the rear side of the inner part of the cover body 31, a display screen 35 is fixedly connected to the left side of the rear upper end of the cover body 31, a plurality of control buttons 36 are fixedly connected to the right side of the rear upper end of the cover body 31, a charging port 37 and a data external interface 38 are opened on the right side of the outer surface of the cover body 31, a connecting groove 39 is opened on the lower part of the inner surface of the cover body 31, the connecting groove 39 is threadedly matched with the connecting port 2, the fixing hole 32 passes through the upper part of the cover body 31, and the lower part of the drinking spout 33 is flush with the inner upper wall of the cover body 31.

[0031] Through the above scheme: the data external interface 38 opened in the cup cover 3 can export the number of drinking times and single drinking volume recorded inside the cup cover 3, which is convenient for the doctor to adjust the patient's drinking volume according to the patient's physical condition. When the patient is drinking water, the buzzer 310 will sound an alarm when the micro flow meter 332 inside the drinking nozzle 33 detects that the single drinking volume is about to reach half of the set drinking volume threshold. The alarm lasts for 3 seconds. When the micro flow meter 332 inside the drinking nozzle 33 detects that the single drinking volume reaches the set drinking volume threshold, the control motherboard 34 will actively control the solenoid valve 333 in the drinking nozzle 33 to close the passage inside the drinking nozzle 33, and sound an alarm through the buzzer 310. The alarm lasts for 5 seconds to remind the patient that the single drinking is over.

[0032] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, the drinking nozzle 33 includes a water outlet pipe 331, a micro flow meter 332 is provided on the lower side of the water outlet pipe 331, a solenoid valve 333 is provided on the upper side of the water outlet pipe 331, the upper end of the water outlet pipe 331 is fixedly connected to a connecting seat 334, and the middle part of the upper end of the connecting seat 334 is fixedly connected to a soft spout 335. The water outlet pipe 331, the micro flow meter 332 and the solenoid valve 333 are all located inside the fixing hole 32 and are fixedly connected to the fixing hole 32. The connecting seat 334 is located on the upper part of the cover body 31, and the lower part of the connecting seat 334 is in contact with the upper part of the cover body 31. The connecting seat 334 is threadedly connected to the lower side of the inner part of the protective cover 4, and the soft spout 335 is located inside the protective cover 4.

[0033] Through the above scheme: the micro flow meter 332 and the solenoid valve 333 in the drinking spout 33 are both electrically connected to the control main board 34. When the water cup is in use, the micro flow meter 332 can feed back the monitored liquid flow data to the control main board 34 in real time. The control main board 34 controls the solenoid valve 333 so that when the amount of drinking water reaches the set threshold, it can actively close the drinking water passage to ensure accurate control of the patient's single water drinking amount.

[0034] Working Principle: This utility model aims to provide an intelligent volume-controlled interception water cup designed specifically for hemodialysis patients. Its innovation lies in the ingenious design of the cup lid 3, which integrates a drinking spout 33, a control board 34, an intuitive display 35, and a series of easy-to-use control buttons 36. This design allows patients to preset the upper limit of a single drinking amount according to their personal needs through simple button operations.

[0035] During the drinking process, the micro-flow meter 332 built into the drinking spout 33 plays a key role. Like a precise meter, it monitors and records the amount of liquid flowing through in real time. Once the user's pre-set drinking volume threshold is reached, the control board 34 responds immediately by driving the solenoid valve 333 inside the drinking spout 33 to quickly and accurately close the drinking channel, thus ensuring precise control of each drinking volume. This is crucial for hemodialysis patients who need to strictly manage their water intake.

[0036] In addition, to enhance user experience and convenience, the cup is specially designed with a user-friendly grip 6. This design not only makes holding the cup more stable and comfortable, but also cleverly provides a connection hole 7 on its upper part for easy connection of a wrist strap 8. The wrist strap 8 allows patients to easily carry the cup while moving or walking without having to worry about the cup accidentally falling, further enhancing the portability and practicality of the cup. The shoulder strap provided in the device can be connected to the cup when it is in use, preventing hemodialysis patients with edema from suffering skin damage when carrying the cup.

[0037] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
