Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically a water cup that is easy to clean. Background Art

[0002] As we all know, a water cup is a vessel specifically designed to hold water, primarily for drinking alcohol or tea. Water cups are made of materials including, but not limited to, glass, plastic, ceramic, and metal. However, during daily use, the liquid in a water cup can easily become a breeding ground for bacteria after remaining in the cup for a period of time. Bacteria can multiply rapidly in the cup, especially in unclean tap water pipes, where microorganisms such as blue-green algae may also enter the cup through the water source. Therefore, regularly cleaning water cups to prevent bacterial growth is crucial. Currently, most existing water cups lack a cleaning mechanism. Longer cups are difficult to clean due to the difficulty of reaching in, and their higher center of gravity makes them prone to tipping over when placed on a table. Therefore, we propose a water cup that is easy to clean to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a water cup that is easy to clean, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

A turntable is installed in the middle of the sealed bearing, and a crank is installed on the turntable. A rod is installed at the bottom of the turntable, and a brush is installed at the bottom of the rod. A locking knob is installed on one side of the rod, and the brush is fixed to the rod via the locking knob. The cup base is installed at the bottom of the cup body, and a cup body stabilizing mechanism is installed inside the cup base. The cup body stabilizing mechanism includes a large gear, a small gear, a damping shaft, a dial wheel, connecting rods, a support plate, and a rotating shaft. The large gear is rotatably installed inside the cup base. A small gear is provided on one side of the large gear. The small gear is fixedly connected to the damping shaft installed on the cup base and meshes with the large gear. A dial wheel is installed on the small gear. Three connecting rods are hinged to the large gear. The other ends of the three connecting rods are hinged to the support plate. A rotating shaft is rotatably installed on the support plate and fixedly connected to the cup base.

[0020] 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 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.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-3 In this embodiment of the utility model, a water cup that is easy to clean includes a cup body 1, a cup lid 2, and a cup base 3. The cup lid 2 is threaded onto the cup body 1, and a sealing bearing 5 is embedded in the cup lid 2. A turntable 6 is installed in the middle of the sealing bearing 5, and a crank handle 10 is installed on the turntable 6. A rod 7 is installed at the bottom of the turntable 6, and a brush 8 is installed at the bottom of the rod 7. A locking knob 9 is installed on one side of the rod 7, and the brush 8 is fixed to the rod 7 by the locking knob 9. The brush 8 includes a brush head 801, a brush rod 802, a mounting hole 803, and a brush. The brush head 801 has bristles 804 evenly distributed facing the inner wall of the cup body 1. The brush head 801 is equipped with a brush rod 802, which is inserted into the rod tube 7. The brush rod 802 has a mounting hole 803 on one side that matches the locking knob 9. The brush rod 802 has a positioning protrusion 805 on one side that matches the positioning groove on the inner wall of the rod tube 7. The positioning protrusion 805 makes the insertion position of the brush rod 802 and the rod tube 7 more accurate, which facilitates the subsequent installation of the locking knob 9.

[0022] A hanging rope 11 is installed on the cup lid 2. The hanging rope 11 makes it convenient for people to carry the cup and hang it up for storage.

[0023] A heat-insulating cup sleeve 12 is provided on the cup body 1. The heat-insulating cup sleeve 12 can prevent people's hands from being burned by the cup body 1 and improve the safety of use.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4A cup base 3 is installed at the bottom of the cup body 1. A cup stabilizing mechanism 4 is installed inside the cup base 3. The cup stabilizing mechanism 4 includes a large gear 401, a small gear 402, a damping shaft 403, a dial wheel 404, a connecting rod 405, a support plate 406, and a shaft 407. The large gear 401 is rotatably installed inside the cup base 3. A small gear 402 is located on one side of the large gear 401. The small gear 402 is fixedly connected to the damping shaft 403 installed on the cup base 3. The small gear 402 meshes with the large gear 401. A dial wheel 404 is installed on the small gear 402. Three connecting rods 405 are hinged to the gear 401. The other end of the three connecting rods 405 is hinged to a support plate 406. A rotating shaft 407 is rotatably mounted on the support plate 406. The rotating shaft 407 is fixedly connected to the cup base 3. A dial 404 extends from the side of the cup base 3. This design allows the user to easily rotate the dial 404 with their fingers. The side of the cup base 3 has a slot 13 that matches the three support plates 406. The bottom surface of the support plate 406 is flush with the bottom surface of the cup base 3, so that the support plate 406 can contact the table to provide support.

[0025] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0026] When using the cup, to clean the inside of the cup, unscrew the lid 2 from the cup body 1, add cleaning water to the cup body 1, insert the brush handle 802 of the brush 8 into the tube 7 inside the lid 2, and then use the locking knob 9 to fix the tube 7 to the brush 8. Next, place the brush 8 into the cup body 1 from top to bottom and rotate the lid 2 to secure it firmly to the cup body 1. Then, hold the lid 2 and the cup body 1 together with one hand, and turn the crank handle 10 with the other hand. The crank handle 10 drives the brush 8 to rotate via the turntable 6. Clean the inner wall of the cup body 1. After cleaning, remove the brush 8. During use, the user can turn the dial 404, which drives the small gear 402 to rotate. The small gear 402 meshes with the large gear 401 and drives the support plate 406 to rotate around the pivot 407 via the connecting rod 405. During rotation, the support plate 406 extends from the slot 13 to the outside of the cup base 3, forming three support lines to provide a larger support surface for the cup and thus improve the stability of the cup.

[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
