Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cups, and in particular to a cup cover and a cup. Background Art

[0002] To improve the convenience of drinking water, some cup lids designed with drinking holes have appeared on the market. These drinking holes allow users to drink water directly or insert a straw to drink. To ensure the sealing of the cup when not in use, the cup lid is usually equipped with a seal to block the drinking hole. Users need to manually remove or open this seal before drinking. Although this type of cup lid effectively achieves the sealing function of the drinking hole through the seal, it still exposes the following defects and shortcomings in actual application:

[0003] When drinking water with a straw, the exposed part of the straw is easily contaminated with dust. Existing seals are usually connected to the cup lid, and their dimensions (especially the length direction) are mostly fixed. As a result, the seals can usually only protect the straw inside the cup from dust and cannot flexibly adapt to the dust protection requirements of straws of different lengths.

[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field. Utility Model Content

[0005] (1) Technical problems solved

[0006] The embodiments of the present application provide a cup lid and a cup, which can solve the problem of how to improve the applicability of the existing technology to the dust-proof requirements of straws of different lengths.

[0007] (2) Technical solution

[0008] To solve the above technical problems, this application provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] In one aspect, a cup cover is provided, comprising: a cover body and a sealing member;

[0010] The cover body is provided with a drinking hole;

[0011] The sealing member includes a connecting portion, a deformable ring, and a sealing portion. The connecting portion is connected to the cover body. The sealing portion can detachably seal the drinking hole and is provided with a dustproof hole. The deformable ring is annular and has elastic deformation capability. The deformable ring is located between the sealing portion and the connecting portion.

[0012] When the sealing portion is separated from the drinking hole and pulled away from the connecting portion, the deformable ring is elastically stretched to extend the distance between the sealing portion and the connecting portion, so that the sealing portion can be placed on the straw located in the drinking hole through the dustproof hole cover.

[0013] In some embodiments, a receiving groove is provided on the cover body, and when the sealing portion seals the drinking hole, the deformable ring is located in the receiving groove.

[0014] In some embodiments, the accommodating groove is provided with a clearance opening, and when the sealing portion seals the drinking hole, the connection between the deformable ring and the sealing portion is located in the clearance opening.

[0015] In some embodiments, a fold is provided at the connection between the deformable ring and the sealing portion.

[0016] In some embodiments, the cover body is provided with an insertion hole, and the top of the sealing portion is provided with an insertion strip. In use, the sealing portion is separated from the drinking hole and is detachably plugged into the insertion hole through the insertion strip.

[0017] In some embodiments, a connecting hole is provided on the cover body, and the connecting portion is detachably connected to the connecting hole.

[0018] In some embodiments, the cover body is provided with a direct drinking hole, and the sealing member further includes a blocking portion, which is connected to the connecting portion and can detachably seal the direct drinking hole.

[0022] On the other hand, a cup is provided, comprising a cup body and the above-mentioned cup cover, wherein the cup cover is arranged on the cup body through the cover body.

[0023] (3) Beneficial effects

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application have at least the following beneficial effects:

[0025] The cup lid and cup of the present application use a sealing member to seal the drinking hole on the lid body. The seal's elastic deformation allows it to provide dust protection for straws of varying lengths. Specifically, the sealing member is connected to the lid body via a connecting portion. When not in use, the sealing member seals the drinking hole. When in use, the sealing member is separated from the drinking hole, allowing a straw to be inserted into the hole. To protect the straw from dust, the sealing member can be pulled away from the connecting portion, causing the deformable ring to elastically deform. This extends the distance between the sealing member and the connecting portion according to the straw's length, allowing the sealing member to fit through the dustproof hole and onto straws of varying lengths, providing dust protection. After the sealing member is removed from the straw, the deformable ring automatically resets, returning the sealing member to its original position to seal the drinking hole, making it easier to reseal the hole. Furthermore, due to the annular shape of the deformable ring, compared to traditional solid deformable structures, the required pulling force to achieve the same amount of deformation is lower, making it more convenient to use. Furthermore, the elastic force generated and the force acting on the straw are smaller, reducing the risk of deformation caused by the straw during dust protection. Equally important, the seal remains connected to the lid while sealing the drinking hole and protecting the straw from dust, preventing the seal from falling or getting lost. This demonstrates that the cup lid of this application is adaptable to dust-proofing requirements for straws of varying lengths and offers the advantages of ease of use and high safety.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] The following will be combined with the 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 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.

[0037] Existing cup lids also have a seal for sealing the drinking hole, which needs to be opened before drinking. Although this cup lid can seal the drinking hole with the seal, it has the following defects and shortcomings: the seal is usually connected to the cup lid and its length is usually fixed. When drinking with a straw, the seal cannot adapt to straws of different lengths, making it inconvenient to use.

[0038] In order to solve the above technical problems, this embodiment provides a cup cover. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, Figure 1 is a three-dimensional diagram of a cup cover in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 This is an exploded view of the cup cover in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 3 This is a top view of the cup cover structure in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Cross-sectional view of section A.

[0039] The cup cover of this embodiment includes: a cover body 1 and a sealing member 2.

[0040] The cover 1 is the main part of the cup cover, which is used to cover the cup body. Figure 2 As shown, a drinking hole 11 is provided on the cover body 1, and the user can drink water directly through the drinking hole 11 or insert a straw to drink.

[0041] The seal 2 comprises a connecting portion 21, a deformable ring 22, and a sealing portion 23. The connecting portion 21 is connected to the lid 1, securing the seal 2 to the lid 1. The sealing portion 23 detachably seals the drinking hole 11, both in a sealed and open state. The sealing portion 23 also includes a dustproof hole 201 for the straw, which covers the exposed end of the straw to prevent dust. The deformable ring 22 is annular and elastically deformable, located between the sealing portion 23 and the connecting portion 21.

[0042] When the sealing portion 23 is separated from the drinking hole 11 and the sealing portion 22 is pulled away from the connecting portion 21, the deformable ring 22 is elastically stretched to extend the distance between the sealing portion 23 and the connecting portion 21, so that the sealing portion 22 can be covered on the straw located in the drinking hole 11 through the dustproof hole 201.

[0043] The cup lid of the above technical solution seals the drinking hole 11 on the lid body 1 with a sealing member 2. The elastic deformation of the sealing member 2 also provides dust protection for straws of varying lengths. Specifically, the sealing member 2 is connected to the lid body 1 via a connecting portion 21. When not in use, the sealing member 23 seals the drinking hole 11. When in use, the sealing member 23 is separated from the drinking hole 11, allowing a straw to be inserted into the drinking hole 11 for use. To protect the straw from dust, the sealing member 23 can be pulled away from the connecting portion 21, causing the deformable ring 22 to elastically deform. This extends the distance between the sealing member 23 and the connecting portion 21 according to the straw's length, allowing the sealing member 23 to fit through the dustproof hole 201 and onto straws of varying lengths, providing dust protection. After the sealing member 23 is removed from the straw, the deformable ring 22 automatically resets, returning the sealing member 23 to its original position to seal the drinking hole 11, making it easier to reseal the drinking hole 11. That is to say, the seal 2 not only effectively seals the drinking hole 11 on the cover body 1, but also, by virtue of the elastic deformation characteristics of the seal 2, flexibly adapts to and tightly wraps straws of various lengths, thereby achieving efficient dust protection. In addition, the seal 2 is firmly connected to the cover body 1 through the connecting portion 21, ensuring convenience and safety during use and avoiding the risk of the seal 2 falling off or being lost. Furthermore, the deformation ring 22 in the seal 2 adopts an annular design. Compared with the traditional solid structure, it can achieve the same deformation effect with less pulling force, which not only saves effort in operation, but also reduces the additional pressure applied to the straw, effectively reducing the possibility of the straw being deformed due to dust protection. In summary, the cup lid of the above technical solution not only significantly enhances the universal applicability of the dustproof function, but also greatly improves the convenience of use and the reliability of the product.

[0044] In order to facilitate the storage of the deformation ring 22, see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a receiving groove 12 is provided on the cover body 1. When the sealing portion 23 seals the drinking hole 11, the deformable ring 22 will be completely or partially located in the receiving groove 12, thereby ensuring that the deformable ring 22 does not protrude from the surface of the cover body 1 when not in use, which is both beautiful and safe.

[0045] For example, see Figure 3 As shown, the shape of the accommodating groove 12 is the same as that of the deformable ring 22 , and the size thereof is slightly larger than that of the deformable ring 22 .

[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the accommodating groove 12 is provided with a clearance opening 13. When the sealing portion 23 seals the drinking hole 11, the connection between the deformable ring 22 and the sealing portion 23 is located in the clearance opening 13. The connection has enough space to move, thereby improving the fit between the deformable ring 22 and the accommodating groove 12, and avoiding the problem of poor sealing effect of the sealing portion 23 or damage to the seal 2 due to insufficient space.

[0047] Exemplarily, the connection is strip-shaped and made of the same material as the deformation ring 22 .

[0048] For example, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a fold 202 is provided at the junction of the deformable ring 22 and the sealing portion 23. This fold 202 allows the deformable ring 22 to deform more easily when subjected to external forces, thereby ensuring that the sealing portion 23 fits tightly against the drinking hole 11 and improving the sealing effect. Furthermore, the design of the fold 202 increases the durability of the deformable ring 22 and prolongs the service life of the seal 2.

[0049] In order to facilitate the fixing of the sealing portion 23 in the use state and prevent it from returning to the position covering the drinking hole 11, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cover 1 is provided with an insertion hole 14, and a plug strip 203 is provided on the top of the sealing portion 23. In the use state, the sealing portion 23 is separated from the drinking hole 11 and is detachably plugged into the insertion hole 14 via the plug strip 203. This not only facilitates the use of the user, but also ensures that the sealing member 2 is properly stored when the drinking hole 11 is not in use.

[0050] In one embodiment of the connection between the connecting portion 21 and the cover 1, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the cover body 1 is provided with a connecting hole 15, and the connecting portion 21 is detachably connected to the connecting hole 15. This detachable design allows the sealing member 2 to be easily replaced or cleaned, thereby improving the practicality and hygiene of the cup cover.

[0051] For example, see Figure 4As shown, the connecting portion 21 has a head portion that is larger than the connecting hole 15. The head portion is elastically deformable and can recover its shape after being compressed. During installation, the connecting portion 21 is inserted from one end of the connecting hole 15. After passing through the connecting hole 15, the head portion is retained at the other end of the connecting hole 15. To remove the seal 2, the head portion is pushed out of the connecting hole 15, thus achieving a detachable connection between the seal 2 and the cover body 1.

[0052] Exemplarily, the detachable connection between the connecting portion 21 and the connecting hole 15 may also be achieved in the following manner: the connecting portion 21 and the connecting hole 15 are respectively provided with external threads and internal threads, and are connected by threads.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in addition to the drinking hole 11, the cover body 1 also features a direct drinking hole 16. To seal this direct drinking hole 16, a blocking portion 24 is added to the sealing member 2. This blocking portion 24 is connected to the connecting portion 21 and can detachably seal the direct drinking hole 16. This allows users to choose to drink from either the drinking hole 11 or the direct drinking hole 16, depending on their needs. It is understood that users can also use a straw to drink from the direct drinking hole 16.

[0054] For example, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the blocking portion 24 also has the above-mentioned inserting strip 203 structure, and a fold 202 is also provided at the connection between the blocking portion 24 and the deformable ring 22 .

[0055] In order to prevent the drinking hole from dust, the sealing part blocks the opening area of ​​the drinking hole through the laterally extending part outside the drinking hole; at the same time, in order to prevent the drinking hole from dust, the blocking part blocks the opening area of ​​the direct drinking hole through the laterally extending part outside the direct drinking hole.

[0056] The shape of the deformable ring 22 can be specifically one of the following: the inner and outer shapes of the ring are circular, oval or waist-shaped. This diversified design not only meets the needs of different users, but also increases the aesthetics and practicality of the product.

[0057] The seal 2 adopts an integrally formed design and is made of soft and durable materials such as silicone or rubber, which not only ensures the sealing effect of the seal 2 but also has good elastic deformation ability, thereby improving its durability and safety.

[0058] The present embodiment provides a cup, which includes a cup body (not shown) and the cup lid described in the above embodiment. The cup lid is covered on the cup body by the cover body 1, thereby forming a complete cup. The specific covering method can adopt the existing technology, such as tight fit or threaded fit, which will not be described here. This design not only ensures the sealing and safety of the cup, but also improves its practicality and aesthetics. Users can choose to use the drinking hole 11 or the direct drinking hole 16 for drinking water according to their needs, and can also maintain the hygiene of the cup by replacing or cleaning the seal 2. It is also important that users can also use the seal 2 to prevent dust from straws of different lengths during use, thereby improving the hygiene of use.

[0059] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
