Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of teapot technology, and in particular to a rotary-locking teapot. Background Technology

[0002] As we all know, a teapot is a spouted vessel used for brewing and pouring tea. It is a type of tea utensil, primarily used for brewing tea. Structurally, a teapot consists of four parts: the lid, the body, the base, and the foot. The lid has details such as a hole, a knob, a base, and a cover. The body has parts such as the mouth, rim (lip), spout, body, shoulder, and handle (or lever). A filter is usually placed inside the teapot to filter the tea leaves.

[0003] Currently, most teapot lids simply fit over the spout, requiring a single finger to hold the lid in place while pouring tea, making operation somewhat cumbersome. While some teapots with locking lids exist, such as the one disclosed in patent CN201611241383.7, which uses a snap-lock mechanism, the lid is essentially embedded within the spout after locking, leaving only a small portion for the user to grip. Furthermore, because the brewing temperature of tea is relatively high, the heat is transferred to the lid during pouring, causing it to become excessively hot. If the user directly touches the lid to open it, they risk burns. Therefore, existing teapots still present some inconvenience for consumers. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a teapot with rotation locking.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A rotary-locking teapot includes a teapot body, a filter, a collar, and a lid. The collar locks onto the spout of the teapot body, and the inner opening of the collar communicates with the interior of the teapot body. A spout is located on one side of the collar, and a handle is located on the other side. The filter is placed inside the teapot body, with its top end resting on the inner opening of the collar. The lid has a lower edge with a clearance opening relative to the spout. At least one locking protrusion is located at the edge of the lower edge. The inner opening of the collar has a raised surface, and the raised surface of the collar has an "L"-shaped groove corresponding to the number of locking protrusions. An extension block is located on the symmetrical end of the lid opposite to the end with the locking protrusions, and the bottom of the extension block has an "L"-shaped hook. A "C"-shaped locking opening is located at the junction of the collar and the handle.

[0007] Preferably, the inner end face of the hook is provided with a locking groove, and the inner end face of the lock opening is provided with a locking protrusion. When the hook is rotated and placed in the lock opening, the locking protrusion is embedded in the locking groove.

[0008] Preferably, the outer end face of the filter screen is provided with a skirt, the skirt is provided with a clearance position relative to the spout, the skirt is also provided with a limiting opening, and a limiting block is provided in the inner ring opening of the collar. The filter screen is placed on the inner ring opening of the collar through the skirt, and the limiting block is inserted into the limiting opening.

[0009] Preferably, a gap is left between the upper end of the collar and the top of the filter screen, allowing a finger to be inserted.

[0010] Preferably, the upper end of the collar has at least one notch.

[0011] Preferably, the kettle body includes an inner liner and an outer cover, a vacuum cavity is formed between the inner liner and the outer cover, and the port of the inner liner and the port of the outer cover are integrated.

[0012] Preferably, the outer cover has an external thread on its periphery, and the lower port of the inner ring of the collar has an internal thread. The collar is locked to the port of the outer cover through the connection between the external thread and the internal thread.

[0013] By adopting the above-mentioned solution, this utility model relies on the assembly structure design between the lid and the collar, allowing the lid to be rotated and locked onto the collar. This eliminates the worry of the lid falling off when pouring tea, and also eliminates the need for another finger to hold the lid down. At the same time, the extension block, while meeting the requirements for rotational locking, also serves as an unlocking and locking component for the user. Because it is far from the lid and suspended in the air, the temperature transmitted from the lid is negligible, thus avoiding the problem of burning hands when locking or unlocking. Furthermore, the extension block is located at the handle, which also facilitates one-handed operation. Attached Figure Description

[0023] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment provides a rotary-locking teapot, including a teapot body 1, a filter screen 2, a collar 3, and a lid 4. The collar 3 locks onto the spout of the teapot body 1, and the inner ring of the collar 3 communicates with the interior of the teapot body 1. A spout 5 is provided on one side of the collar 3, and a handle 6 is provided on the other side. The filter screen 2 is placed inside the teapot body 1, with its top end resting on the inner ring of the collar 3. The bottom of the lid 4 has a lower edge 7, and the lower edge 7 has a groove relative to the spout 5. The lower edge of the collar 7 has at least one locking protrusion 9 at the edge of the collar 8. The inner ring of the collar 3 has a raised platform 10. The inner ring of the collar 3 has an L-shaped groove 11 at the raised platform 10, which corresponds to the number of locking protrusions 9. The lid 4 has an extension block 12 at the symmetrical end with the locking protrusions 9. The bottom of the extension block 12 has an L-shaped hook 13. The collar 3 and the handle 6 have a C-shaped locking opening 14 at the connection point.

[0024] This embodiment relies on the assembly structure design between the lid 4 and the collar 3, allowing the lid 4 to be rotated and locked onto the collar 3. This eliminates the worry of the lid 4 coming off when pouring tea, and also eliminates the need for another finger to hold the lid 4 down. At the same time, the extension block 12 serves as an unlocking and locking component for the user, while still meeting the requirements for rotational locking. Because it is far from the lid 4 and suspended in the air, the temperature transmitted from the lid 4 is negligible, thus avoiding the problem of burning hands when locking or unlocking. Furthermore, the extension block 12 is located at the handle 6, which also facilitates one-handed operation.

[0025] By default, the collar 3 and the kettle body 1 are already locked together and are generally not separated. In practice, first place the filter 2 into the kettle body 1, overlapping the filter 2 with the collar 3. Then, grasp the kettle lid 4 and slightly tilt it. First, align the protrusion 9 of the lower edge 7 with the groove 11. Then, hold it level, aligning the protrusion 9 and the groove 11, and aligning the hook 13 with the locking opening 14. The kettle lid 4 can then be rotated, and the protrusion 9... It is then inserted into the slot 11, and the hook 13 is inserted into the lock 14, thus forming an assembly. When it is necessary to remove the lid 4, simply push the extension block 12 with your thumb to rotate the lid 4, so that the protrusion 9 and the slot 11, and the hook 13 and the lock 14 are simultaneously displaced, so that the lid 4 can be picked up and separated. The tool for picking can be a knob 100 set on the lid 4, which is convenient for heat-insulating gripping of the lid 4. The shape of the knob 100 can be oval.

[0026] Furthermore, to make the locking more secure, the inner end face of the hook 13 in this embodiment is provided with a locking groove 15, and the inner end face of the lock opening 14 is provided with a locking protrusion 16. When the hook 13 is rotated into the lock opening 14, the locking protrusion 16 is embedded in the locking groove 15, thus achieving a fastening effect. Of course, depending on the design, the positions of the locking groove 15 and the locking protrusion 16 will also be different; the locking groove 15 can be located at the lock opening 14, and the locking protrusion 16 can be located on the hook 13.

[0027] Furthermore, regarding the stacking structure of the filter screen 2, specifically, the outer end face of the filter screen 2 in this embodiment is provided with a skirt 17, the skirt 17 is provided with a clearance position 18 relative to the spout 5, and a limiting opening 19 is also provided on the skirt 17. A limiting block 20 is provided in the inner ring opening of the collar 3. The filter screen 2 is stacked on the inner ring opening of the collar 3 through the skirt 17, and the limiting block 20 is inserted into the limiting opening 19. This not only satisfies the stacking of the filter screen 2, but also prevents the filter screen 2 from rotating.

[0028] Furthermore, to facilitate subsequent grasping of the filter 2, a gap 21 is provided between the upper end of the collar 3 and the top of the filter 2 for finger insertion, and at least one notch 22 is provided at the upper end of the collar 3. This allows the user to easily insert their finger to grasp the filter 2.

[0029] Furthermore, regarding the design of the kettle body 1, the kettle body 1 in this embodiment includes an inner liner 23 and an outer cover 24. A vacuum cavity 25 is formed between the inner liner 23 and the outer cover 24. The port of the inner liner 23 and the port of the outer cover 24 are integrated, so that the vacuum cavity 25 plays a role in heat preservation. In addition, the outer cover 24 in this embodiment has an external thread 26 on its periphery, and the lower port of the inner ring 3 has an internal thread (not shown in the figure). Through the connection between the external thread 26 and the internal thread, the collar 3 is locked at the port of the outer cover 24.

[0030] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
