[0005] In order to solve the problems mentioned in the background and improve the buckling efficiency of the cup cover, the present application provides a cup cover, which comprises a cup cover upper part and a cup cover lower part, the cup cover lower part is fixedly connected with the cup cover upper part, the cup cover upper part comprises a first base body extending in the height direction of the cup cover upper part, the outer side of the first base body is surrounded by a plurality of first protrusions, the cup cover lower part comprises a first table body, the first table body is in a columnar shape, each first protrusion is in abutment with the inner end of the first table body of another cup cover to realize buckling.
[0006] In this way, the bottom of the first base body of the cup cover upper part is fixedly connected with the cup cover lower part, when the cup cover is stacked with another cup cover, the first protrusion is in abutment with the inner end of the first table body of another cup cover, it is worth mentioning that the inner wall of the first table body is provided with a stepped structure, so that the end face of the first protrusion extending outward can be exactly lapped with the end face of the step in the first table body, so that the cup cover can be firmly stacked together.
[0007] According to an embodiment of the present application, a plurality of grooves are arranged around the first table body, and the grooves are arranged below the first protrusions to firmly connect the cup cover with another cup cover.
[0008] In this way, each groove is formed directly below each first protrusion, and the inside of the first table body is formed with a boss corresponding to the groove, that is, the thickness of the boss is equal to the depth of the groove, the boss is in a cylindrical shape and the left and right ends are also in a circular shape, when the cup cover is buckled, the boss is exactly arranged below the first protrusion, so as to further firmly connect the cup cover with another cup cover, and avoid loosening during loading and transportation, thereby preventing the cup cover from being damaged.
[0009] According to an embodiment provided by the present application, the first base body is in the shape of a circular truncated cone, and a radius of the first base body away from the lower end of the cup cover is greater than a radius of the first base body close to the lower end of the cup cover.
[0010] In this way, the first base body is in the shape of an inclined circular truncated cone, which facilitates the upper end of the first base body to be easily sleeved into another cup cover, and the larger size of the lower end facilitates the placement of the spoon body. Meanwhile, the first base body is mainly arranged on both sides of the upper end of the cup cover, and a certain space is left in the middle to facilitate the user to firmly hold the cup cover, thereby improving the user experience.
[0011] According to an embodiment provided by the present application, the first protruding part is arranged in an inclined manner, and the thickness of the first protruding part is greater than 1 mm.

Preferably, the maximum thickness of the first protruding part is controlled to be between 1 mm and 1.5 mm, and the inclination is controlled to be between 10 degrees and 20 degrees. The boss formed in the groove can be exactly clamped on the inclined surface of the first protruding part, thereby reducing the possibility of the cup cover being loosened.
[0013] According to an embodiment provided by the present application, the first base body further comprises a second protruding part, and the second protruding part is arranged on the inner side of the first base body and corresponds to the first protruding part.
[0014] In this way, the extension direction of the second protruding part on the first base body is consistent with the protruding direction of the first protruding part, and the inner wall of the first base body is in the shape of an inclined surface. The second protruding part is arranged correspondingly to the first protruding part, so that the first base body has a concave-convex structure, and the overall structure of the first base body has stronger bending resistance, thereby further enhancing the strength of the top of the cup cover.
[0015] According to an embodiment provided by the present application, the upper end of the cup cover further comprises a plurality of second base bodies, and the second base bodies are arranged on the same side as the first base body, and the height of the second base bodies is lower than that of the first base body.
[0016] In this way, the height of the second base body is flush with the height of the first base body, and the side of the second base body is provided with a clamping block which protrudes outward to the side close to the first circular truncated cone. The middle part of the protruding part is provided with a notch, and the notch can facilitate positioning. The protruding part can abut against the lower end of another cup cover, thereby further providing support and avoiding the deformation of the cup cover caused by uneven force applied by the equipment during the pressing process.
[0017] According to an embodiment provided by the present application, the middle part of the inner side of the second base body is provided with a clamping block, and the middle part of the clamping block is provided with a circular-arc-shaped groove.

[0040] With the rapid development of the yogurt industry, spoon-eating products are increasingly favored by consumers. However, there are problems in the packaging of the spoon, such as imperfect packaging and inconvenient use. In terms of packaging, for example, in the case of separate packaging of the spoon and attachment to the cup packaging, the spoon is easily lost during the flow process. By using hot melt adhesive to stick the spoon inside the cup cover, additional glue is used, which is not conducive to green and sustainable development of packaging, and there are problems such as difficulty in tearing and poor consumer experience.
[0041] In the prior art, a buckle structure is designed inside the cup cover, and the spoon is fixed by using the spoon body, so that the consumer can easily remove the spoon to eat the food in the cup.
[0042] The cup cover with the spoon cannot be normally stacked, which leads to the fact that automatic buckling of the cover cannot be realized on the production equipment and can only be buckled by hand, affecting the production efficiency.
