Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a straw cup, and more particularly to a straw cup and its straw. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, children's straw cups, as a common children's product, have been widely used in daily life. Currently, children's straw cups on the market typically use a traditional single-hole straw design. When children use this type of straw cup to drink water, because there is only one outlet at the top of the straw, water tends to gush out from this single hole when the child sucks, especially when the child sucks forcefully, the water flow is faster and the volume is larger, making it easy for the child to choke. In addition, the single outlet design makes the straw tip relatively sharp, which can easily damage the inner wall of a child's mouth. Furthermore, when using a single-hole straw cup to drink fruit or other complementary foods, large particles of the food can easily get into a child's trachea. For young children, their swallowing and breathing coordination abilities are not yet fully developed; once choked, it may cause discomfort such as coughing and difficulty breathing, and in severe cases, it may even endanger their lives. Utility Model Content

[0003] One objective of this invention is to provide a straw cup and its straw, wherein the straw head of the straw installed in the straw cup has two or more water outlet holes. When a child sucks on the straw head, the liquid contained in the cup body of the straw cup flows through the tube channel of the straw and into the child's mouth through each of the water outlet holes. The multiple water outlet holes of the straw head can disperse the pressure of the liquid flowing out, preventing the child from choking due to the liquid flowing out too quickly under strong suction.

[0004] One objective of this invention is to provide a straw cup and its straw, wherein the straw head is hemispherical, and each of the water outlet holes surrounds the straw head. The angle of inclination of each water outlet hole is acute to the horizontal plane. When a child sucks, the liquid in the cup body can flow through the tube channel and water outlet holes into the child's mouth, allowing the liquid to be evenly distributed in the mouth from multiple directions, thus preventing concentrated liquid outflow and potential impact on specific areas of the mouth. This allows children or those with weak swallowing abilities to drink more comfortably. Furthermore, because the straw head is hemispherical, even if the straw head comes into contact with the inner wall of the child's mouth, the inner wall will not be injured.

[0005] One objective of this invention is to provide a straw cup and its straw, wherein the straw head has six water outlet holes evenly distributed on the side wall of the straw head. The liquid flowing through these outlet holes enters the mouth at an angle, reducing the risk of choking due to liquid rushing directly into the throat. This ensures smooth flow of liquid regardless of whether the child is sucking from the side or the front. For example, even if a child's sucking technique is not perfect, the six water outlet holes still guarantee they can drink smoothly. Furthermore, when a child uses the straw cup to suck on granular complementary foods, the water outlet holes prevent large particles from entering the child's mouth, preventing choking. Even if large particles block one or more of the water outlet holes, smaller particles of complementary food can still enter the child's mouth through the other water outlet holes.

[0006] One objective of this invention is to provide a straw cup and its straw, wherein the straw body is installed in the straw channel of the main cover of the straw cup, the straw head is exposed above the main cover, and the straw body can seal the straw channel. When a child tilts the straw cup to use it, liquid in the cup body space with the straw installed is prevented from flowing out through the straw channel, thus ensuring the reliability of the straw cup when it is used.

[0007] One objective of this invention is to provide a straw cup and its straw, wherein the insertion part of the main cap of the straw cup is inserted into the receiving cavity of the straw cup cap, and the straw head is received in the receiving cavity of the straw cup cap, so that when the straw cup is carried, the straw cup cap can protect the straw head from being kept clean and hygienic.

[0008] One objective of this invention is to provide a straw cup and its straw, wherein the straw is installed in the insertion part of the main cover, and when a child uses the straw cup, the insertion part can prevent the straw installed in the straw cup from shaking, thereby preventing the straw from injuring the child's mouth.

[0037] Refer to the description of this utility model. Figures 1 to 11 A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be disclosed and described in the following description, wherein the straw cup includes a cup body 10, a straw 20 and a main cover 30, the main cover 30 being detachably mounted to the cup body 10 and the straw 20 being mounted to the main cover 30.

[0038] The specific structure of the cup body 10 is not limited in the straw cup of this utility model. For example, in the attached... Figures 1 to 11 In this specific example of the straw cup shown, the cup body 10 includes two handles 11 and a cup body 12, with the two handles disposed opposite each other on both sides of the cup body 12. The cup body 10 has a cup body space 13 for holding drinkable liquid.

[0039] The main cap 30 is installed on the cup body 10. The main cap 30 is used to close the top opening of the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10. The main cap 30 has a straw channel 31, which communicates with the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10. The straw 20 is installed in the straw channel 31 of the main cap 30. The bottom of the straw 20 extends to the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10, and the top of the straw 20 is exposed at the top of the main cap 30. In this way, children can drink the drinkable liquid contained in the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 through the straw 20.

[0040] refer to Figures 5 to 7 The straw 20 includes a tube body 21 and a straw head 22 integrally formed at the top of the tube body 21. The tube body 21 has a tube channel 211, and the straw head 22 has two or more water outlet holes 221, each of which is connected to the tube channel 211. After the straw 20 is installed in the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, the bottom of the tube body 21 extends to the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10, and the straw head 22 is exposed at the top of the main cover 30. The cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 is used to hold drinkable liquid. When a child sucks on the straw 20, the liquid held in the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 flows through the tube body 21 to the water outlet holes 221 of the straw head 22. The liquid is dispersed by each of the water outlet holes 221, which ensures that the liquid is evenly distributed in the mouth and provides a more comfortable drinking experience for children.

[0041] Specifically, please refer to the appendix. Figures 5 to 7The straw head 22 has six water outlet holes 221, which are evenly distributed around the annular wall of the straw head 22. The straw head 22 is hemispherical in shape, and the angle of inclination of each water outlet hole 221 around the straw head 22 is acute with respect to the horizontal plane. This means that the liquid flowing out through each water outlet hole 221 flows obliquely upwards, and the liquid is dispersed by the water outlet holes 221 into the child's mouth. This not only reduces the risk of choking due to liquid rushing directly into the throat, but also prevents large food particles from entering the child's mouth through the water outlet holes 221. For example, when drinking beverages containing particles (such as fruit juice containing pulp) through the straw cup, if one or more water outlet holes 221 are blocked, the other water outlet holes 221 can still flow out normally without affecting the normal use of the straw cup. Meanwhile, because the straw head 22 is hemispherical, even if the straw head 22 comes into contact with the inner wall of a child's mouth, the inner wall of the child's mouth will not be injured. It is understood that in other examples of the straw cup of this invention, the number of water outlet holes 221 on the straw head 22 may be more than six or less than six, and can be selected as needed.

[0042] After the straw 20 is installed in the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, its straw head 22 is exposed above the main cover 30, making it convenient for children to directly use the straw head 22 to suck the liquid contained in the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10. The straw head 22, after being held in the mouth, will not enter the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 through the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30; that is, the straw 20 will not fall into the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10, thereby ensuring that the main cover 30 and the liquid in the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 remain clean and hygienic.

[0043] Further, the straw 20 includes a first extension ring 23 and a second extension ring 24, which are spaced apart from each other on the tube body 21. For example, the first extension ring 23 and the second extension ring 24 are integrally formed with the tube body 21, and the distance between the first extension ring 23 and the straw head 22 is smaller than the distance between the second extension ring 24 and the straw head 22. That is, the first extension ring 23 is located above the second extension ring 24, and the outer diameter of the first extension ring 23 is... The outer diameter of the first extension ring 23 is greater than that of the second extension ring 24. After the straw 20 is installed in the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, the first extension ring 23 and the second extension ring 24 respectively fit against the top opening edge and the bottom opening edge of the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30. The outer diameter of the first extension ring 23 and the outer diameter of the second extension ring 24 are both greater than that of the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, so that the straw 20 can be reliably installed in the main cover 30 and the straw 20 is prevented from falling off the main cover 30 automatically.

[0044] During the process of installing the straw 20 into the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, the end of the tube 21 facing away from the straw head 22 (i.e., the bottom of the tube 21) extends into the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 through the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30. The second extension ring 24, after being deformed by external force and the inner wall of the main cover 30 used to define the straw channel 31, passes through the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30 and moves. The second extension ring 24 returns to its initial state and fits against the edge of the bottom opening of the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, while the first extension ring 23 fits against the edge of the top opening of the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, preventing the straw 20 from continuing to move downward along the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, thereby allowing the straw 20 to be reliably installed on the main cover 30.

[0045] When the straw 20 installed in the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30 is used, the second extension ring 24 not only prevents the straw 20 from detaching from the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, but also prevents the liquid in the cup body space 13 of the cup body 10 from flowing out through the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30 when the straw cup is tilted, thus preventing the straw cup from leaking.

[0046] The straw cup further includes a straw cup lid 40, which has a receiving cavity 41. The straw head 22 of the straw 20 can be received in the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup lid 40 to hide the straw head 22, thereby helping to keep the straw head 22 clean and hygienic when the user carries the straw cup.

[0047] Specifically, the straw cup lid 40 has a connecting end 42 and a cap end 43. The connecting end 42 of the straw cup lid 40 can be installed on the main cover 30. The receiving cavity 41 is formed on the cap end 43 of the straw cup lid 40. A part of the main cover 30 can be inserted into the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup lid 40. The straw head 22 exposed above the main cover 30 is also received in the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup lid 40. The inner wall of the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup lid 40 can seal the water outlet 221 of the straw head 22. In this way, not only can the straw head 22 of the straw 20 be hidden, but liquid leakage can also be prevented. When the user carries the straw cup, the straw cup lid 40 is installed on a part of the main lid 30, and the straw head 22 of the straw 20 is received in the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup lid 40. The straw cup is tilted, and the liquid stored in the cup body 10 flows through the tube channel 211 of the tube body 21 to each of the water outlet holes 221 of the straw head 22. At this time, the lid end 43 of the straw cup lid 40 can prevent liquid from entering the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup lid 40, thereby avoiding liquid leakage.

[0048] refer to Figure 9 The main cover 30 has an insertion portion 32 and an annular groove 321 formed in the insertion portion 32. The cap end 43 of the straw cup cap 40 has an annular protrusion 431 that protrudes into the receiving cavity 41. When the insertion portion 32 of the main cover 30 is inserted into the receiving cavity 41 of the straw cup cap 40, the annular protrusion 431 of the straw cup cap 40 can engage with the annular groove 321 of the main cover 30. Thus, when the straw cup is carried, the cap end 43 of the straw cup cap 40 can be reliably installed in the insertion portion 32 of the main cover 30, allowing the straw head 22 of the straw 20 to be concealed. Furthermore, when the straw cup is tilted, the installation method of the straw cup cap 40 and the main cover 30 further prevents liquid from flowing out of the straw cup from the water outlet 221 of the straw head 22, preventing leakage from the straw cup.

[0049] The straw cup lid 40 has a connecting plug 44 at the connecting end 42, and the main cover 30 has a connecting hole 34. The size of the connecting hole 34 is slightly smaller than the size of the connecting plug 44. The connecting plug 44 is detachably installed in the connecting hole 34 of the main cover 30. Users can replace the main cover 30 with different shapes to decorate the straw cup according to their own needs.

[0050] The straw cup lid 40 has an extension body 45, with the connecting end 42 and the lid end 43 located at opposite ends of the extension body 45. When the lid end 43 of the straw cup lid 40 is installed in the insertion part 32 of the main lid 30, the user can carry the straw cup by holding the extension body 45.

[0051] The main cover 30 also includes a fixing element 35, which is integrally formed on the side edge of the main cover 30. The fixing element 35 has a fixing groove 351, the size of which is slightly smaller than the size of the extension 45 of the straw cup lid 40. This allows the extension 45 of the straw cup lid 40 to be fixed in the fixing groove 351 of the fixing element 35 based on friction. When a child uses the straw cup, the extension 45 of the straw cup lid 40 can be fixed in the fixing groove 351 of the fixing element 35 to prevent the lid end 43 of the straw cup lid 40 from touching the child's face, ensuring a good user experience for the straw cup.

[0052] refer to Figure 8 and Figure 10 The bottom of the cup body 10 has an annular water collection groove 14. The bottom of the tube body 21 of the straw 20 extends into the annular water collection groove 14 of the cup body 10. When the volume of liquid contained in the cup body 10 is small, the annular water collection groove 14 of the cup body 10 can collect the liquid at the bottom of the tube body 21, making it convenient for children to drink liquid through the straw cup.

[0053] When the bottom of the tube body 21 of the straw 20 extends to the annular water collection groove 14 at the bottom of the cup body 10, the upper end of the tube body 21 is fixed to the straw channel 31 of the main cover 30, ensuring that the straw 20 can be used firmly during use by children without displacement, and preventing the straw from poking the child's mouth.
