For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection, electrical connection; direct connection, indirect connection through an intermediate medium, internal communication between two components, or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.
[0036] Example 1:
[0037] See also Figures 1-8 The present invention discloses a cup cover with an automatic pressure relief function, comprising:
[0038] The lower cover 1 has a ventilation hole 11 in the middle;
[0039] The upper cover 2 is detachably mounted on the top of the lower cover 1 and has an exhaust hole 21 corresponding to the air vent 11;
[0040] The support base 3 is detachably mounted between the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 1 , and a pressure relief valve assembly mounting hole 31 is provided in the center thereof, communicating with the air vent 11 and the exhaust hole 21 , and a pressure relief hole 32 is provided on the outer periphery of the pressure relief valve assembly mounting hole 31 , communicating with the air vent 11 and the exhaust hole 21 ;
[0041] The waterproof and breathable membrane 4 is installed at the bottom of the support base 3 corresponding to the pressure relief hole 32;
[0042] The pressure relief valve assembly 5 is detachably mounted in the pressure relief valve assembly mounting hole 31 .
[0043] The beneficial effects that can be achieved by the present invention are as follows: when the air pressure in the cup is too high during heating, the gas in the cup passes through the waterproof breathable membrane 4 and is discharged from the exhaust hole 21; and when the pores of the waterproof breathable membrane are blocked by water molecules in the steam due to continued heating, the air is discharged to the exhaust hole 21 through the pressure relief valve assembly 5, which plays a dual pressure relief role, improves the pressure relief capacity, and enhances the safety performance of the electric heating cup during heating.
[0044] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a snap ring 12 is formed on the outer peripheral side of the air vent 11 corresponding to the top of the lower cover 1, and a snap ring groove 33 is provided at the bottom of the support base 3 to fit with the snap ring 12, so as to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the support base 3.
[0045] The top of the lower cover 1 is concave downwardly to form a cup body connecting portion on the outer peripheral side corresponding to the clamping ring 12, and the cup body connecting portion is provided with an external thread.
[0046] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a lower sealing ring 6 is installed in the snap ring groove 33 and is sealed with the snap ring 12 to enhance the sealing performance between the support base 3 and the lower cover 1.
[0047] The top surface of the lower cover 1 corresponding to the inner ring side of the snap ring 12 is a concave structure with a height gradually decreasing from the center of its side, so that water condensed on the top of the lower cover 1 can flow back into the cup body through the air vent 11.
[0048] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a support ring 34 is fixed to the outer peripheral side of the exhaust hole 21 at the top of the support seat 3, and the top of the support ring 34 abuts against the bottom of the upper cover 2 to form an air circulation cavity on the inner ring side of the support ring 34 between the support seat 3 and the upper cover 2. The pressure relief valve assembly mounting hole 31, the pressure relief hole 32 and the exhaust hole 21 are all connected to the air circulation cavity, so that the air flowing out from the pressure relief valve assembly 5 or the waterproof breathable membrane 4 can enter the air circulation cavity and finally be discharged through the exhaust hole 21.
[0049] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, a sealing groove is opened on the top of the support ring 34, and an upper sealing ring 7 sealed with the upper cover 2 is installed in the sealing groove to achieve a sealed connection between the support seat 3 and the upper cover 2.
[0050] To further optimize the above technical solution, the pressure relief valve assembly 5 includes a valve cover 51 and a spring 52. The valve cover 51 is positioned over the pressure relief valve assembly mounting hole, with a gap between its top end and the upper cover 2. The spring 52 is connected to the upper cover 2 at its top end and to the valve cover 51 at its bottom end, driving the valve cover 51 to slide axially along the pressure relief valve assembly mounting hole 31 to open or close it. Specifically, a valve cover connecting ring is formed on the outer periphery of the pressure relief valve mounting hole at the top of the support base 3. The bottom of the valve cover 51 has an annular slot that plugs into the valve cover connecting ring. When there is too much water in the cup body, the waterproof breathable membrane 4 is soaked in water and becomes ineffective, or when there is too much condensed water on the surface of the waterproof breathable membrane 4, the air permeability of the waterproof breathable membrane 4 decreases, and the air cannot be discharged in time. At this time, the air pressure inside the cup body will become larger and larger. When the pressure reaches a certain level, the pressure of the air in the cup acting on the valve cover 51 is greater than the elastic force of the spring 52, and the valve cover 51 will be lifted up. At this time, the air is discharged into the air circulation cavity through the pressure relief valve assembly 5 and discharged from the exhaust hole 21, thereby reducing the air pressure inside the cup body, eliminating safety hazards, and ensuring the safety performance of the product.
[0051] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, it also includes an upper cover connecting component 8, which includes multiple hooks 81 and multiple blocks 82. The multiple hooks 81 are fixed at circumferential intervals on the bottom of the upper cover 2 on the outer peripheral side of the corresponding support seat, and the multiple blocks 82 correspond one-to-one to the multiple hooks 81 and are fixed on the top of the lower cover 1. Each block 82 is engaged with the corresponding hook 81, so that the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 1 can be detachably connected, and disassembly and assembly are convenient.
[0052] In order to further optimize the above technical solution, an outer cover 9 is further included. The outer cover 9 is a double-layer structure. The outer cover 9 is arranged on the outside of the upper cover 2 and its lower end is detachably connected to the lower cover 1. After the outer cover 9 is removed, it can be used as a drinking cup. The water in the cup can be poured into the outer cover 9 for convenient drinking.
[0053] To further optimize the above technical solution, multiple sets of outer cover connecting assemblies 10 are fixed to the top of the lower cover 1 at evenly spaced intervals along the circumference. Each set of outer cover connecting assemblies 10 includes a pressure plate 101 and a limiting protrusion 102. A limiting slot 91 is defined on the inner sidewall of the outer cover 9. The pressure plate 101 is arranged perpendicular to the lower cover 1 and fixed to the top of the lower cover 1. The limiting protrusion 102 is fixed to the upper part of the pressure plate 101 on a side away from the center of the lower cover 1 and engages with the limiting slot 91. The edge of the limiting slot 91 is an arcuate surface, and the limiting protrusion 102 is a spherical protrusion. The outer cover 9 is fixed to the lower cover 1 by the engagement of the limiting protrusion 102 with the limiting slot 91, making it easy to use.
[0054] The various structures of the present invention are all detachable, easy to repair and replace, and have good sealing performance, which can effectively prevent water leakage.
