[0015] Example 1:
[0016] This embodiment is a portable water cup with a flip-up straw cover, such as Figure 1 、 2 This embodiment comprises: a cup cover 2 buckled on the mouth of a cup 1, a straw 3 mounted on the cup cover that can be flipped up and folded, a straw cover 4 that can be flipped 180 degrees, and the straw cover and the cup cover are connected by a hinge 5.
[0017] The cup can be any type of cup, such as a glass, plastic, or stainless steel thermos. The cup lid is a screw-on lid that securely and securely fits the cup via threads. The straw can be foldable or fixed, but a foldable type is preferred in this embodiment.
[0018] The straw cover can be made of transparent plastic or opaque materials such as stainless steel. The horizontal cross-section of the straw cover is rectangular and can cover the groove into which the folded straw enters. Figure 1 As shown, the straw is folded in the groove and the straw cover is closed. When opening, the straw cover rotates around the hinge in the direction of arrow A to open. Figure 2 The horizontal open shape, the straw can be turned up, such as Figure 2 When closed, the eyedropper is pressed Figure 2 Fold the middle B and close the straw cover as shown by arrow C.
[0019] In order to prevent the straw cover from opening automatically when closed, a straw cover locker and a spring for popping open the straw cover can be provided between the straw cover and the cup cover body. When closing the straw cover, the straw cover is moved by hand and the closed straw cover is locked by the straw cover locker. When the straw cover needs to be opened, the straw cover locker releases the lock on the straw cover, and the straw cover automatically pops open by the force of the spring.
[0020] The straw cover locking pin can be implemented in a variety of ways. For example, an elastic lock can be provided on the closed end of the straw cover of the cup cover body, which can be released by pressing the elastic lock. Alternatively, a ratchet lock can be provided on the hinge connecting the cup cover body and the straw cover, and the ratchet lock can be integrated with the handle to form a design that integrates the handle and the straw cover, making it more convenient to open and close the straw cover.
[0021] Example 2:
[0022] This embodiment is an improvement of the first embodiment and is a refinement of the locking straw cover of the first embodiment. The cup cover body of this embodiment is provided with a straw cover locker, and the cup cover body or the hinge is provided with a cover opening spring.
[0023] The straw lid lock is used to lock the straw lid closed. The straw lid lock can be installed in two locations: one is on the hinge connecting the cup lid body and the straw lid, and the other is on the closed end of the straw lid on the cup lid body. The closed end of the straw lid is the position opposite the straw lid and the hinge, which is equivalent to the position where the door lock is installed on a swing door.
[0024] The lid opening spring is used to automatically open the straw cover for easy use. The lid opening spring can be installed on the cup cover body, such as using a tension spring or a compression spring, or a torsion spring installed on the hinge connecting the cup cover body and the straw cover.
[0025] Example 3:
[0026] This embodiment is an improvement of the above embodiment and is a refinement of the straw cover lock of the above embodiment. The straw cover lock described in this embodiment is a lock button 6 installed on the closing end of the straw cover on the cup cover body. Figure 3 shown.
[0027] Figure 3 Only one form of the lock button is drawn in the figure, that is: using the lever principle, a lever is used, one arm of the lever buckles the opening and closing end of the straw cover, and the other arm is used as a button, which cooperates with the spring to realize automatic opening and closing of the straw cover. Figure 3 It is just a principle expression. Based on this principle, we can combine it with industrial design to form a more beautiful button.
[0028] Example 4:
[0029] This embodiment is an improvement on the above embodiment and is a refinement of the straw cover lock. The straw cover lock described in this embodiment is a ratchet lock mounted on the hinge. The ratchet lock comprises: a ratchet 601 coaxial with and fixedly connected to the straw cover, and a pawl 602 for controlling the rotation of the ratchet. The pawl is opened and closed by a locking button 603 and a return spring 604. Figure 4 shown.
[0030] This embodiment is a ratchet wheel mounted on a hinge. The ratchet wheel is coaxial with the straw cover and fixed on the straw cover. The ratchet wheel rotates together with the straw cover. When the straw cover drives the ratchet wheel to rotate to Figure 4 When in the position shown, the pawl falls into the ratchet teeth of the ratchet wheel, restricting the ratchet wheel from rotating. Due to the action of the return spring, the pawl remains in the ratchet teeth, preventing the ratchet wheel from rotating, thereby locking the straw cover.
[0031] When you need to open the straw cover, press the lock button to Figure 4 The middle arrow E direction rotates, and the pawl rotates in the direction of F, leaving the ratchet teeth, and the straw cover automatically pops open under the action of the cover opening spring.
[0032] Figure 4 The above is only a schematic diagram of the principle. In practice, the principle can be used through industrial design to form a more beautiful ratchet form.
[0033] Embodiment 5:
[0034] This embodiment is an improvement of the above embodiment and is a refinement of the cup cover body of the above embodiment. The cup cover body of this embodiment is further provided with a carrying handle, which is linked to the straw cover.
[0035] The carrying handle and the straw cover can be coaxial and connected by means of an overrunning clutch and a damper, so that the opening and closing of the straw cover is more convenient. The carrying handle can also be linked to a locking button of a ratchet lock.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and is not restrictive. Although the present invention is described in detail with reference to the preferred arrangement scheme, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the present invention (such as the shape of the cup, the form and material of the straw cover, etc.) can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
