[0032] See also Figures 1 to 6The present invention discloses a tea extraction cup, comprising a cup body 210, a cup cover 230, a tea strainer 220, and a sealing cover 240. An extraction cavity is formed in the cup body 210, and tea bags and water are used to extract tea in the extraction cavity. The cup cover 230 is detachably mounted on the top of the cup body 210, and a mounting opening 231 is provided in the center of the cup cover 230. The tea strainer 220 is no higher than the height of the extraction cavity. The tea strainer 220 is inserted downward from the mounting opening 231 and detachably mounted with the cup cover 230, and is suspended from the bottom of the extraction cavity. The sealing cover 240 blocks the top opening of the tea strainer 220.

[0033] The tea bag is placed in the tea strainer 220. In most existing tea brewing cups, the tea strainer 220 is usually detachably mounted on the bottom of the cup body 210. However, this structure makes it inconvenient to remove the tea bag. After brewing, since the tea strainer 220 is fixed in the cup body 210, if the user needs to separate the tea and the tea bag, they need to reach into the extraction chamber and remove the tea strainer 220 from the bottom of the cup body 210. This operation is not hygienic and is relatively inconvenient. In addition, the cup body 210 needs to have a corresponding locking portion for fixing the tea strainer 220, which increases the difficulty of cleaning these corners.

[0034] The present invention improves the fixing method of the tea strainer 220. The tea strainer 220 is inserted through the installation opening 231 of the cup cover 230 and installed on the cup cover. The body of the tea strainer 220 is suspended in the extraction chamber. Compared with the traditional method of fixing the tea strainer 220 to the bottom of the cup, the installation method of the present invention is more superior. Specifically, when the tea is extracted, the user removes the cup cover 230 and the tea strainer 220 is removed together. In addition, the user can also directly remove the tea strainer 220 (with a tea bag in the tea strainer 220) from the installation opening 231 to separate the tea bag from the tea and prevent the concentration of the tea from changing due to being left for too long. When removing the tea strainer 220, the user does not need to reach into the cup, but can take it out from the cup cover 230. This installation method of directly connecting the tea strainer 220 to the cup cover 230 is more in line with food hygiene. In addition, in traditional tea-brewing cups, the tea strainer 220 is fixed to the bottom of the cup body 210, and the bottom of the cup body 210 needs to be designed with a number of grooves / fixing columns that engage with the tea strainer 220. The tea-brewing cup structure of the present invention eliminates the need for additional design of engaging parts at the bottom of the cup body 210 for fixing the tea strainer 220, making the bottom structure of the cup body 210 simple, easy to clean, and reducing bacterial growth.

[0035] Furthermore, the diameter of the tea strainer 220 is no larger than the diameter of the mounting opening 231, so that the tea strainer 220 can be inserted into the cup body 210 from above the mounting opening 231. The opening at the top of the tea strainer 220 is used to put in or take out a tea bag. Before brewing tea, the user holds the top of the tea strainer 220, installs the tea strainer 220 on the cup lid 230, and then drops the tea bag into the tea strainer 220. This process does not require contact with the interior of the cup body 210, making the operation simple, clean and hygienic.

[0036] Further, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a retaining ring 220a is provided on the upper outer side of the tea strainer 220. The retaining ring 220a secures the tea strainer 220 to the mounting opening 231. Specifically, the outer diameter of the retaining ring 220a is larger than the diameter of the mounting opening 231, while the height of the tea strainer 220 does not exceed the height of the extraction chamber, so that the tea strainer 220 is secured above the mounting opening 231 and suspended above the bottom of the cup.

[0037] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the body of the tea strainer 220 is also provided with a limiter 220b, and the mounting port 231 is provided with a limiter 231a corresponding to the position of the limiter 220b. The limiter 220b passes through the limiter 231a and then rotates to engage with the mounting port 231. Specifically, the mounting port 231 is provided with two symmetrical limiters 231a, and the body of the tea strainer 220 is provided with two corresponding limiters 220b. Before brewing tea, the user throws the tea bag into the tea strainer 220, aligns the limiter 220b of the tea strainer 220 with the limiter 231a and inserts it. After inserting, the tea strainer 220 is rotated to engage with the cup cover 230 to prevent the tea strainer 220 from being thrown out during the tea brewing process. After the tea brewing is completed, the tea strainer 220 is rotated to align the limiter 220b with the limiter 231a and then the tea strainer is removed to separate the tea bag and the tea. This process avoids the user's hands from touching the inside of the cup body 210, which is clean and hygienic.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer side of the cover 240 is provided with a sealing strip 240a. When the cover 240 is installed on the top of the tea strainer 220, the sealing strip 240a closes the gap. Specifically, the tea strainer 220 has an opening at the top for inserting or removing tea bags. The cover 240 can block the opening at the top of the tea strainer 220 to prevent liquid from splashing. The sealing strip improves the sealing degree of the cover 240 blocking the top of the tea strainer 220.

[0039] The tea strainer 220 has a solid upper portion and a hollowed-out strip-shaped lower portion. The solid upper portion ensures that the tea strainer 220 is sturdy and not easily deformed. The hollowed-out portion creates an inclination range of 75°-85°. The obliquely arranged strip-shaped filter channels help form eddies, thereby enhancing the release of tea components and ensuring a more complete tea extraction.

[0040] In this embodiment, if Figure 1As shown, the height formed by the bottom of the tea separator 220 and the bottom of the extraction chamber ranges from 1 / 4 to 1 / 2 of the extraction chamber height. Specifically, if the distance is too large, the mixing effect between the tea bag and the drinking water will be weakened, resulting in incomplete tea extraction and a weak tea flavor. If the distance is too small, the tea bag will be too close to the bottom, which will cause the water flow through the tea leaves to slow down, easily causing the tea leaves to be over-soaked, and the tea may become too strong or bitter. Therefore, controlling the distance between the bottom of the tea separator 220 and the bottom of the extraction chamber between 1 / 4 and 1 / 2 of the extraction chamber height helps achieve the best mixing effect for the tea and water.

[0041] In addition, if Figure 6 As shown, the present invention also provides a tea extraction machine including a machine base 100 and the above-mentioned tea extraction cup 200. The tea extraction cup 200 is detachably connected to the machine base 100. A driving mechanism is provided in the machine base 100. A stirring blade 110 is installed at the bottom of the cup body 210. The stirring blade 110 is driven by the driving mechanism to rotate to stir the liquid in the tea extraction cup 210.

[0042] When the user makes tea, he first inserts the tea strainer 220 through the installation opening 231 of the cup cover 230 to fix the tea strainer 220 and the cup cover 230. Then, he puts the tea bag into the tea strainer 220, installs the cup cover 230 and the cup body 210 filled with a certain amount of drinking water, covers the opening at the top of the tea strainer 220 with the sealing cover 240 to seal the opening, and finally places the tea making cup 200 on the machine base 100, turns on the switch to start making tea. The installation method of inserting the tea strainer 220 into the cup body 210 from above the cup cover 230 avoids direct contact with the cup body and is more hygienic.

[0043] After the tea is brewed, the tea bag should be removed promptly to prevent it from soaking for too long and affecting its concentration. Specifically, the tea cup 200 is removed from the machine base 100. Next, the cover 240 is rotated and removed, and the cup lid 230 is removed from the cup body 210. The tea strainer 220 is removed along with the cup lid 230, and the tea bag placed in the tea strainer 220 is removed. The design of directly connecting the tea strainer 220 to the cup lid 230 facilitates the separation of tea and tea bag after brewing, while the cup body 210 can continue to hold tea, eliminating the need to reach into the cup body 210 to remove the tea bag. This simple, convenient, clean, and hygienic process.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
