[0026] Please refer to Figs. 1 to 3 The utility model provides a kind of straw head 10, applied to straw 100, straw 100 includes tube body 20 and straw head 10, straw head 10 has straw nozzle 11 and pipe interface 12, straw nozzle 11 is used to supply user to suck, pipe interface 12 is butt joint with the one end of tube body 20 and communicates, straw head 10 is provided with shunt passage 13 in it;Wherein, shunt passage 13 includes main flow pipe 131 and at least two shunt pipe 132, one end of main flow pipe 131 is used to communicate in pipe interface 12, the other end of main flow pipe 131 and one end of each shunt pipe 132 communicate, the other end of each shunt pipe 132 penetrates to straw nozzle.
[0027] In the technical scheme of the present application, the straw head 10 is provided with a shunt passage 13, when the user sucks, the liquid enters the main flow pipe 131 from the pipe interface 12 and is shunted into each shunt pipe 132, so that the beverage can flow into the oral cavity from multiple shunt pipes, so that the beverage can more evenly contact the tongue, so that the user can fully experience the taste of the beverage, and the taste of the beverage is better.
[0028] Generally, the straw head 10 and the tube body 20 are made of silica gel, plastic or metal material, and specifically can be polypropylene (PP), polylactic acid, polyethylene (PE), stainless steel, etc., and at least one of the two is plastic or silica gel material, so that when the tube interface 12 of the straw head 10 is docked with the tube body 20, the one with plastic material can be deformed to make the two interference fit, which is convenient for the user to disassemble the straw head 10, and preferably, in some embodiments of the utility model, the straw head 10 is an integral structure and is made of plastic material, and the tube body 20 is made of metal material. In this way, the overall straw is light and heavy, and when the straw 100 is inserted into the cup body, it is more stable.
[0029] In some embodiments of the utility model, the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the at least two shunt pipes 132 is less than or equal to the cross-sectional area of the main flow pipe 131. In this way, the flow rate can be limited to avoid being choked or burned by hot drinks when the user sucks hard.
[0030] Considering that the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the shunt pipes 132 is too small and can be easily blocked by beverage particles, and the suction speed is too slow to affect the experience, in some embodiments of the utility model, the ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the at least two shunt pipes 132 to the cross-sectional area of the main flow pipe 131 is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 9 / 10. Specifically, it can be 1 / 10, 1 / 5, 3 / 10, 1 / 2, 7 / 10, 1 / 8, 3 / 4, etc. This ratio range can not only ensure that the shunt channel has a certain flow limiting effect, but also avoid the cross-sectional area of the shunt pipe 132 being too small, so that the liquid may not flow smoothly into the shunt pipe 132, resulting in poor smoking experience. The common tube diameter of the tube body 20 is between 5mm-15mm, and the ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the shunt pipes 132 to the cross-sectional area of the main flow pipe 131 can be set according to the tube diameter of the tube body 20. For example, for a 15mm tube body 20 with a larger tube diameter, a smaller ratio can be set to limit the flow as much as possible. The specific implementation is set according to the actual situation, which is not limited here.
[0031] Further, in some embodiments of the utility model, the middle part of the straw head 10 is curved. The curved design can allow the user to maintain a more natural posture when drinking, reducing neck and head discomfort and improving user experience.
[0032] Considering that the middle curved portion of the straw head 10 is prone to stress concentration and bending, and the straw head 10 is prone to stress fatigue after being bent multiple times during long-term use, the bending angle of the straw head 10 gradually changes or even breaks in the middle. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present application, each of the shunt pipes 132 is curved to extend to the middle of the straw head 10, and the main flow pipe 131 extends in a straight line. Because in the case of the same outer diameter of the cross section, the portion of the straw head 10 provided with multiple shunt pipes 132 has a larger moment of inertia of the cross section and stronger bending resistance than the portion provided with the main flow pipe 131, therefore, the straw head 10 is less likely to further bend or crack in the middle, which is beneficial to improve the service life of the straw head 10.
[0033] In addition, considering that when the bending angle of the straw head 10 is too large, the user needs to lift the cup body to a higher height during use, which also leads to poor convenience, therefore, in some embodiments of the present application, the bending angle a of the two ends of the straw head 10 is greater than or equal to 110° and less than or equal to 160°. Specifically, it can be 110°, 120°, 130°, 140°, 150°, 160°, etc., which is set according to the specific circumstances, and is not limited herein.
[0034] The number of the above-mentioned shunt pipes 132 can be 2, 3, 4 or more, preferably, in some embodiments of the present application, the shunt pipes 132 are provided with 3. The three shunt pipes 132 can effectively and uniformly distribute the liquid into different channels, so that the beverage can flow into the oral cavity from multiple directions, thereby more uniformly contacting the tongue and improving the taste; and there is no problem of high processing precision requirement due to too many shunt pipes 132 and too small pipe diameter of a single shunt pipe 132.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, the cross section of the straw mouth 11 is provided with a flat geometric shape, and at least two shunt pipes 132 are arranged along the long axis direction of the cross section of the straw mouth 11. The cross section of the straw mouth 11 can be provided with a rectangular, oval, capsule shape, etc., and the long axis direction herein refers to the direction of the longer axis of the flat geometric cross section.
[0036] The present application also provides a straw cup, characterized in that it comprises a cup body and a straw. The specific structure of the straw cup is referred to the above-mentioned embodiments, because the present straw cup adopts all the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here.
[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the straw cup further comprises a cup cover, the cup cover is provided with a plug-in hole, the pipe body 20 of the straw 100 passes through the plug-in hole, and the straw mouth 11 is limited and supported on the outer side surface of the cup cover, so that dust and impurities can be prevented from falling into the cup body through the gap between the pipe body 20 and the plug-in hole.
[0038] The above merely illustrates the embodiments of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structural transformation or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields within the technical concept of the present application and the content of the present application are included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
