Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to cup cover technical field, especially relate to a fixing structure of cover subassembly. BACKGROUND

[0002] When driving a car, a special cup is usually equipped on the car to facilitate the driver to drink. This special cup is often called a car cup. Since the driver needs to drive the car, he can only operate the car cup with one hand.

[0003] The earliest car cup is directly open to facilitate the driver to operate. The driver can directly drink the water in the cup. However, the dust inside the car can easily fall into the cup through the opening, causing the water in the cup to mix with the dust. To solve the dust problem, the car cup has been innovated in design and introduced a dust cover to improve the hygiene of use. After introducing the dust cover, how to conveniently open and close with one hand has become the design focus of the car cup. Among them, the slide cover type cup cover that uses a sliding mechanism to realize opening and closing is widely welcomed due to its convenience for one-handed operation.

[0004] For example, patent US10124942B2 provides a cover assembly that can be used on a car cup. Specifically, a first opening (through which the driver drinks the liquid in the cup) is provided on the cover body, a sliding block is slidably arranged on the cover body, a first positioning magnet is provided on the sliding block, and a second positioning magnet and a third positioning magnet are provided on the cover body. When the sliding block is slid to a position where the first positioning magnet and the second positioning magnet are attracted to each other, the sliding block is kept in the closed position under the action of the magnetic force. When the sliding block is in the closed position, it covers the first opening, so that the liquid in the cup will not flow out of the first opening. When the sliding block is slid to a position where the first positioning magnet and the third positioning magnet are attracted to each other, the sliding block is kept in the open position under the action of the magnetic force. At this time, the sliding block does not cover the first opening, and the first opening is exposed, so that the driver can drink the liquid in the cup through the first opening.

[0005] For example, patent CN217565584U provides a resilient opening and closing cup cover that can be used on a car cup. A sliding groove is provided on the cover body, one end of the sliding groove is provided with a drinking opening, and a sliding cover is slidably arranged in the sliding groove. A closing positioning groove and an opening positioning groove are sequentially provided on the side wall of the sliding groove, and a resilient wall is protrudingly provided on one side of the sliding cover. When the sliding cover is slid to a position where the resilient arm is arranged in the closing positioning groove, the sliding cover covers the drinking opening so that the liquid in the cup will not flow out of the drinking opening. When the sliding cover is slid to a position where the resilient arm is in the opening positioning groove, the sliding cover does not cover the drinking opening, and the drinking opening is exposed, so that the driver can drink the liquid in the cup through the drinking opening.

[0006] The two cup covers described above can be held by the driver when in use, and the driver can push the sliding cover with his fingers to perform opening or closing operation, which is simple and convenient to operate.

[0007] However, as time goes by, more and more people begin to integrate the car cup used in the car into daily life, such as for outdoor, garage, office, etc., so as to make it a convenient and practical life product. The continuous expansion of the use scene of the car cup prompts the user to put forward higher and more diversified demands for its function.

[0008] When the car cup is used in daily life instead of being placed in the car cup holder in the car, the situation that the car cup is knocked down is increasingly frequent. How to ensure that the liquid in the cup does not spill out when the car cup is knocked down has become a new design requirement and innovation direction. Utility model content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application or the prior art, specific embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present application, and those skilled in the art can obtain other drawings and embodiments according to these drawings without creating any creative labor.

[0040] In order to make the drawing simple, only the parts related to the present application are shown in the drawings, which do not represent the actual structure of the product. In addition, in order to make the drawing simple and easy to understand, in some drawings, only one of the parts with the same structure or function is shown, or only one of them is marked. In this paper, "one" not only means "only one", but also means "more than one".

[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 14 The present embodiment provides a fixing structure of a cover assembly, which comprises a lid body 1, a sliding cover 2 and an elastic sealing piece 3. The lid body 1 is provided with a sliding groove 7, and the groove bottom surface of the sliding groove 7 is provided with a drinking port 4. The sliding cover 2 is slidably arranged in the sliding groove 7, and the sliding cover 2 is configured to be slidable between a closing position and an opening position on the lid body 1; the sliding cover 2 and the lid body 1 are magnetically detachably connected.

[0042] The elastic sealing piece 3 is arranged on the sliding cover 2, and the sliding cover 2 drives the elastic sealing piece 3 to move when sliding; when the sliding cover 2 is in the closing position, the sliding cover 2 covers the drinking port 4 and the elastic sealing piece 3 covers the drinking port 4, and when the sliding cover 2 is in the opening position, the sliding cover 2 and the elastic sealing piece 3 are both away from the drinking port 4, and at the same time, the air hole 31 on the lid body 1 is in a ventilating state.

[0043] The sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 from the open position to the closed position is the first direction, and the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 from the closed position to the open position is the second direction. The drinking opening 4 is arranged at one end of the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7 in the first direction.

[0044] The end of the sliding cover 2 in the first direction is provided with at least one fixing assembly between the side wall of the sliding groove 7, and the fixing assembly comprises a clamping groove 20 and a clamping block 21. Either one of the clamping groove 20 and the clamping block 21 is arranged at the end of the sliding cover 2, and the other one is arranged at the side wall of the sliding groove 7. When the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, the clamping block 21 is inserted into the clamping groove 20.

[0045] For the convenience of description, the combination of the cover body 1, the sliding cover 2 and the elastic sealing member 3 is referred to as a cover assembly. The cover assembly is generally used in cooperation with a containing member. The cover body 1 in the cover assembly is threadedly connected or coveringly connected to the opening of the containing member to form a container (in addition to the cover assembly and the containing member, other components can be added according to actual needs). For example, the containing member can be a cup body or a bottle body, and the cover assembly is connected to the cup opening of the cup body or the bottle opening of the bottle body to form a cup or a bottle with a cover. The content in the containing member can be taken out from the drinking opening 4 on the cover body 1.

[0046] When the user needs to pour out the content (for example, the content is water, and the user needs to drink water), the sliding cover 2 on the cover body 1 can be slid to the open position, and the user can pour out the content from the drinking opening 4. When the user does not need to pour out the content (for example, the user does not need to drink water), the sliding cover 2 can be slid to the closed position. In this state, the sliding cover 2 covers the drinking opening on the cover body 1, the elastic sealing member 3 covers the drinking opening, the sliding cover 2 presses the elastic sealing member 3 at the drinking opening to seal the drinking opening, and the clamping block 21 and the clamping groove 20 in the fixing assembly are clamped to fix the end of the sliding cover 2 corresponding to the drinking opening 4, so that the container does not leak in the pouring state. Moreover, when the content is hot water, hot gas is easy to push the elastic sealing member 3 away from the end of the sliding cover 2 through the drinking opening 4, thereby damaging the seal and causing leakage. The arrangement of the fixing assembly can effectively prevent such leakage. It should be noted that although the container is usually used to contain liquid such as drinking water, it can also be used to contain solid particles, and the type of content in the container is not limited.

[0047] The fixing structure of the cover assembly of the present embodiment will be further described below.

[0048] The drinking opening 4 is a through hole that communicates the first side and the second side of the cover body 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the drinking opening 4 is arranged at the end of the sliding cover 2 in the first direction. Figure 2As shown, when the cover body 1 is placed on a horizontal plane, the upper side of the cover body 1 is the first side of the cover body 1, the lower side of the cover body 1 is the second side of the cover body 1, the upward direction is the first side direction of the cover body 1, and the downward direction is the second side direction of the cover body 1.

[0049] The magnetic detachable connection between the sliding cover 2 and the cover body 1 can be, for example, as described in the background art, a first magnet 5 is arranged on the sliding cover 2, and a second magnet 6 is arranged on the cover body 1. The first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 are attracted to each other, thereby attracting the sliding cover 2 to the cover body 1. Figure 14

[0050] When the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, the sliding cover 2 presses the elastic sealing member 3 against the drinking opening 4 of the cover body 1, and the sliding cover 2 compresses the elastic sealing member 3 (and requires the elastic sealing member 3 to be elastically deformed), thereby achieving the sealing of the drinking opening 4 by the elastic sealing member 3. There are various ways to achieve the compression of the elastic sealing member 3 by the sliding cover 2 in the closed position, such as using a first magnet 5 and a second magnet 6 that generate a magnetic force large enough to attract each other. In this way, no other structural improvements are needed for the cover assembly, and only the first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 that generate a larger magnetic force need to be replaced, which is a friendly production process, but also has other disadvantages - the first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 that generate a larger magnetic force have a higher cost. In the present embodiment, the guiding and pressing structure is provided to compress the elastic sealing member 3 against the drinking opening 4 of the cover body 1 when the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position.

[0051] Specifically, the guiding and pressing structure can guide the portion of the sliding cover 2 provided with the elastic sealing member 3 to move in the second side direction of the cover body 1 during the sliding of the sliding cover 2 to the closed position, so that the sliding cover 2 can compress the elastic sealing member 3 against the cover body 1 when the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, thereby achieving the sealing of the drinking opening 4 by the elastic sealing member 3.

[0052] For ease of description, the stroke of the sliding cover 2 from the open position to the closed position is referred to as the first stroke, and the stroke of the sliding cover 2 guided by the guiding and pressing structure to the closed position is referred to as the second stroke. The second stroke is equal to the first stroke or a part of the first stroke. Preferably, the second stroke is a part of the first stroke and is located at the end of the first stroke.

[0053] ​The guiding and pressing structure comprises at least one guiding and pressing assembly, the guiding and pressing assembly comprises a first guiding part and a second guiding part, the first guiding part is arranged on the cover body 1, and the second guiding part is arranged on the sliding cover 2 and moves synchronously with the sliding cover 2. In the second stroke, the first guiding part and the second guiding part are in sliding connection, and the second guiding part is located in the direction of the second side of the first guiding part towards the cover body 1. The first guiding part and the second guiding part are configured to, in the second stroke, move towards the second side of the cover body 1 when the second guiding part slides under the limitation of the first guiding part.

[0054] Specifically, at least one of the first guiding part and the second guiding part is a guiding surface. When the first guiding part is the guiding surface, the first guiding part is a guiding surface arranged in the direction of the second side of the cover body 1; when the second guiding part is the guiding surface, the second guiding part is a guiding surface arranged in the direction of the first side of the cover body 1. The guiding surface is offset in the first direction towards the second side of the cover body 1, and the specific offset manner can be offset in a planar manner (i.e. an inclined plane), offset in a curved surface manner (i.e. the farther the curved surface is in the first direction, the closer it is to the second side of the cover body 1), or offset in a combination of a planar and a curved surface manner, etc., and the specific manner is not limited.

[0055] When the first guiding part on the cover body 1 is the guiding surface, in the second stroke, the second guiding part moves synchronously with the sliding cover 2, and the second guiding part slides against the guiding surface (i.e. the first guiding part) when the sliding cover 2 slides in the first direction. Since the guiding surface is offset in the first direction towards the second side of the cover body 1, the second guiding part will gradually move towards the second side of the cover body 1 under the limitation of the guiding surface, thereby driving the sliding cover 2 to move towards the second side of the cover body 1.

[0056] When the second guiding part on the sliding cover 2 is the guiding surface, in the second stroke, the guiding surface will abut against the first guiding part when the sliding cover 2 slides in the first direction. Since the guiding surface is offset in the first direction towards the second side of the cover body 1, in the process of moving in the first direction with the sliding cover 2, the part of the guiding surface abutting against the second guiding part is gradually offset in the first direction towards the second side of the cover body 1, and the first guiding part is fixed on the cover body 1 and does not change in position. Therefore, in the process of moving in the first direction with the sliding cover 2, the guiding surface will gradually move towards the second side of the cover body 1, thereby driving the sliding cover 2 to move towards the second side of the cover body 1.

[0057] When the first guiding part on the cover body 1 and the second guiding part on the sliding cover 2 are both guiding surfaces, in the second stroke, the second guiding part slides along the first guiding part in the process of moving in the first direction with the sliding cover 2, and gradually moves towards the second side of the cover body 1 in the process of sliding, thereby driving the sliding cover 2 to move towards the second side of the cover body 1.

[0058] In the second stroke, in the direction perpendicular to the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7, the moving distance of the portion of the sliding cover 2 with the elastic seal 3 is less than the distance by which the elastic seal 3 protrudes from the sliding cover 2. Thus, when the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, it can press the elastic seal 3 tightly against the drinking spout 4 of the cover body 1, causing the elastic seal 3 to deform elastically and thus sealing the drinking spout 4. Since the distance by which the elastic seal 3 protrudes from the sliding cover 2 is small, the moving distance of the portion of the sliding cover 2 with the elastic seal 3 in the direction perpendicular to the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7 in the second stroke should also be small, generally within 5 mm, preferably around 0.6 mm. Of course, the specific distance that the portion of the sliding cover 2 with the elastic seal 3 moves in the direction perpendicular to the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7 in the second stroke needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0059] The sliding distance of the cover 2 from the open position to the closed position is small. Therefore, in the second stroke, the part of the cover 2 with the elastic seal 3 moves a small distance on the plane parallel to the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7. Generally, it is selected to be within 10 mm, preferably about 2 mm.

[0060] In this way, the wire pressing structure will not affect the user's feel when the user pushes the sliding cover 2.

[0061] The sliding groove 7 has a closed positioning groove 9 and an open positioning groove 10 sequentially arranged on at least one side wall. The sliding cover 2 has an elastic arm 11 on at least one side. When the elastic arm 11 is located in the closed positioning groove 9, the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position. When the elastic arm 11 is located in the open positioning groove 10, the sliding cover 2 is in the open position. In this embodiment, preferably, the sliding groove 7 has a closed positioning groove 9 and an open positioning groove 10 sequentially arranged on both side walls, and the sliding cover 2 has an elastic arm 11 on both sides. More preferably, the elastic arms 11 on both sides of the sliding cover 2 can be symmetrically arranged, and the closed positioning groove 9 and the open positioning groove 10 on both side walls of the sliding groove 7 are also symmetrically arranged.

[0062] like Figure 7 As shown, the elastic arm 11 is connected to connecting arms 12 at both ends of the sliding cover 2 in the sliding direction. The other end of the connecting arm 12, which is not connected to the elastic arm 11, is connected to the sliding cover 2. That is, both ends of the elastic arm 11 are connected to the sliding cover 2 through connecting arms 12. There is a gap 13 between the elastic arm 11 and the connecting arm 12 and the side wall of the sliding cover 2. The gap 13 is used for the elastic deformation of the elastic arm 11 and the connecting arm 12. When the sliding cover 2 slides between the closed position and the open position, the elastic arm 11 elastically deforms towards the gap 13, so that the elastic arm 11 can slide out from the closed positioning groove 9 or the open positioning groove 10 and slide in the non-closed positioning groove area and the non-open positioning groove area on the side wall of the sliding groove 7.

[0063] The portions of the inner side walls of the sliding groove 7 located on both sides of the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 are sliding inner side walls 14, and the closing positioning groove 9 and the opening positioning groove 10 are arranged on the sliding inner side walls 14.

[0064] The guiding and pressing structure specifically comprises a guiding assembly, the fixing assembly and the anti-disengagement assembly in this embodiment, wherein the guiding assembly plays a main guiding and pressing role (the guiding and pressing role is the role of moving the sliding cover 2 to the second side of the cover body 1 in the second stroke), and the second stroke refers to the stroke of the sliding cover 2 sliding under the limitation of the guiding assembly in the process of sliding from the opening position to the closing position.

[0065] The guiding assembly comprises a guiding groove 16 and a guiding protrusion 17, and either one of the guiding groove 16 and the guiding protrusion 17 is arranged on the sliding inner side wall 14, and the other one is arranged on the sliding outer side wall 15. In the stroke of the sliding cover 2 sliding from the opening position to the closing position, the guiding protrusion 17 is slidingly connected in the guiding groove 16 at least in part of the stroke, and specifically in the second stroke. The guiding groove 16 is offset to the second side of the cover body 1 in the first direction.

[0066] Specifically in this embodiment, the two sliding inner side walls 14 of the sliding groove 7 are respectively provided with the guiding assembly in cooperation with the corresponding sliding outer side wall 15. Moreover, when the sliding cover 2 is in the closing position, there is a guiding assembly on each side of the first direction of the drinking opening 4. In this way, when the sliding cover 2 is in the closing position, the guiding assemblies on both sides of the drinking opening 4 can well apply force to the sliding cover 2, so that the sliding cover 2 presses the elastic sealing piece 3 at the drinking opening 4, so that the elastic sealing piece 3 seals the drinking opening 4 and prevents the contents in the container from flowing out. In the guiding assembly, the inner side wall of the guiding groove 16 on the sliding cover 2 close to the second side of the cover body 1 (that is, the inner side wall of the guiding groove 16 facing the first side of the cover body 1, which is located on the second side of the cover body 1 of the guiding protrusion 17) is the guiding surface.

[0067] The end of the guiding groove 16 in the first direction can be provided with an opening, and the opening is used for the guiding protrusion 17 to slide into the guiding groove 16 from the opening in the process of the sliding cover 2 sliding to the first direction.

[0068] The portions of the inner side walls of the sliding groove 7 located on both ends of the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 are end inner side walls, and the drinking opening 4 is arranged on the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7 close to one of the end inner side walls, which is a specific end inner side wall 18. The portions of the outer side walls of the sliding cover 2 located on both ends of the sliding direction of the sliding cover 2 are end outer side walls, and the end outer side wall facing the specific end inner side wall 18 is a specific end outer side wall 19.

[0069] The fixing component is disposed between the inner sidewall 18 and the outer sidewall 19 of a specific end. The locking block 21 and the locking slot 20 are configured such that, during the process of the locking block 21 being inserted into the locking slot 20, the locking block 21 / locking slot 20 disposed on the outer sidewall 19 of the specific end moves toward the second side of the cover body 1 under the constraint of the locking slot 20 / locking block 21 disposed on the inner sidewall 18 of the specific end.

[0070] Specifically, in this embodiment, the slot 20 is provided on the side wall of the sliding groove 7, and the block 21 is provided at the end of the sliding cover 2. In the fixing assembly, the inner wall surface of the slot 20 facing the second side of the cover body 1 is the aforementioned guide surface, and the outer surface of the block 21 facing the first side of the cover body 1 is the aforementioned guide surface.

[0071] Therefore, the fixing component not only serves to fix the device, but also provides a guiding and pressing function during the second stroke of the sliding cover 2.

[0072] The anti-detachment assembly includes a locking member 22 protruding from the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7 and a locking block 23 disposed on the sliding cover 2. The locking member 22 protrudes a certain distance from the bottom surface 8 towards the first side of the cover body 1 and then bends in the second direction, so that the locking member 22 and the bottom surface 8 cooperate to form a locking groove facing the second direction. During the process of the sliding cover 2 sliding from the open position to the closed position, the locking block 23 extends into the locking groove; and the locking block 23 and the locking groove are configured such that during the process of the locking block 23 extending into the locking groove, the locking block 23 moves towards the second side of the cover body 1 under the restriction of the inner side wall of the locking groove facing the second side of the cover body 1. In the anti-detachment assembly, the inner wall surface of the locking groove facing the second side of the cover body 1 is the aforementioned guide surface, and the outer surface of the locking block 23 facing the first side of the cover body 1 is the aforementioned guide surface.

[0073] like Figure 12 As shown, the locking block 23 can be disposed at the connection between the connecting arm 12 and the sliding cover 2. The locking member 22 can protrude from the bottom surface 8 of the groove and extend into the gap 13, that is, the locking member 22 is disposed in the gap 13. Preferably, two anti-detachment components can be disposed between the cover body 1 and the sliding cover 2, and two locking members 22 are disposed on the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7.

[0074] The anti-detachment component, besides providing a guiding downward pressure during the second stroke of the sliding cover 2, also serves to prevent detachment. When a container with the cover assembly is dropped from a height (e.g., when a user accidentally bumps the container while holding it, or when it falls from a table after being bumped), the anti-detachment component effectively prevents the sliding cover 2 from coming off the cover body 1. If the sliding cover 2 does detach from the cover body 1, its small size makes it easy to lose.

[0075] The slide cover 2 and the cover body 1 are assembled together, and a user can replace one of them at will, for example, when one of them is damaged, the damaged one is replaced, and for another example, the slide cover 2 can be lost sometimes (the cover body 1 is connected to a container and is large in size, and is not easy to be lost in comparison), and needs to be replaced. In order to facilitate the user to assemble the slide cover 2 and the cover body 1, the slide cover 2 can be designed as a central symmetric structure, so that the user does not need to distinguish the two ends of the slide cover 2 in the sliding direction when installing the slide cover 2, and the user is facilitated to install. The slide cover 2 is of a central symmetric structure, and the guide groove 16, the clamping block 21, the clamping block 23, the elastic sealing member 3 and the like on the slide cover 2 need to be centrally symmetrically arranged.

[0076] Although the slide cover 2 presses the elastic sealing member 3 against the cover body 1 when in the closed position, if the slide cover 2 presses the elastic sealing member 3 against the cover body 1 throughout the sliding process of the slide cover 2, a lot of frictional resistance will be increased, and the hand feeling of the user will be affected. Therefore, the embodiment is further provided with a lifting structure, which is arranged between the cover body 1 and the slide cover 2, and is used to guide the slide cover 2 to move to the first side direction of the cover body 1 during the process that the slide cover 2 slides away from the closed position, so that the slide cover 2 relaxes the pressing of the elastic sealing member 3. Preferably, in the direction perpendicular to the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7, the distance that the slide cover 2 moves under the action of the lifting structure during the process that the slide cover 2 moves away from the closed position is greater than the distance that the elastic sealing member 3 protrudes from the slide cover 2, so that after the slide cover 2 moves away from the closed position, the elastic sealing member 3 does not contact the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7, and the sliding frictional resistance of the slide cover 2 in the sliding groove 7 is reduced.

[0077] For the convenience of description, the stroke of the slide cover 2 from the closed position to the open position is referred to as a third stroke, and the stroke of the slide cover 2 moving to the first side direction of the cover body 1 relative to the cover body 1 in the guidance of the lifting structure is referred to as a fourth stroke. The fourth stroke is a part of the third stroke, and is located at the first end of the third stroke.

[0078] The lifting structure comprises at least one lifting assembly, and the lifting assembly comprises a lifting protrusion 24 and a corresponding groove 25. Any one of the lifting protrusion 24 and the groove 25 is arranged on the surface of the slide cover 2 facing the cover body 1, and the other one is arranged on the surface of the cover body 1 facing the slide cover 2. When the slide cover 2 is in the closed position, the lifting protrusion 24 is located in the groove 25, and when the slide cover 2 slides away from the closed position, the lifting protrusion 24 moves away from the groove 25 to make the slide cover 2 move to the first side direction of the cover body 1 relative to the cover body 1. Further, the groove 25 is correspondingly provided with a sliding groove 26, one end of the sliding groove 26 communicates with the groove 25; when the slide cover 2 slides on the cover body 1, the lifting protrusion 24 slides in the sliding groove 26, and when the slide cover 2 slides to the closed position, the lifting protrusion 24 slides to the groove 25. The arrangement of the sliding groove 26 can guide the movement of the lifting protrusion 24.

[0079] Specifically in the embodiment, the lifting protrusion 24 is arranged on the cover 2, the groove 25 and the sliding groove 26 are arranged on the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7; four lifting assemblies are arranged in the cover assembly, two lifting assemblies arranged in a direction perpendicular to the first direction form a group, and two groups of lifting assemblies are arranged along the first direction.

[0080] In the second stroke, the area in which the cover 2 slides in the sliding groove 7 is the same as the area in which the cover 2 slides in the sliding groove 7 in the fourth stroke, and the sliding direction of the cover 2 in the second stroke is opposite to the sliding direction of the cover 2 in the fourth stroke.

[0081] The elastic sealing member 3 includes a first sealing part 27, which is arranged on the side of the cover 2 facing the cover body 1. When the cover 2 is in the closed position, the first sealing part 27 covers the drinking opening 4, and the first sealing part 27 extends to the surrounding part of the drinking opening 4 in the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7. In this way, when the cover 2 presses the elastic sealing member 3 against the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7, the elastic sealing member 3 can seal the drinking opening 4. However, this sealing method has poor sealing performance. Therefore, in the embodiment, the elastic sealing member 3 is further improved, and the elastic sealing member 3 further includes a second sealing part 28.

[0082] As shown in Figure 10 the second sealing part 28 is annular and protrudes from the side of the first sealing part 27 facing the groove bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7; when the cover 2 is in the closed position, the drinking opening 4 is located inside the annular structure of the second sealing part 28. Preferably, the elastic sealing member 3 can include multiple layers of second sealing parts 28, and the annular structures of the multiple layers of second sealing parts 28 are sequentially sleeved to improve the sealing effect.

[0083] Further, the first sealing part 27 extends away from the cover body 1 through the channel on the cover 2 and extends to the surface on the side of the cover 2 away from the cover body 1, and the size of the member formed by the first sealing part 27 on the surface on the side of the cover 2 away from the cover body 1 is greater than the channel on the cover 2. The member can be used as an anti-slip strip 30 when the user pushes the cover 2. In addition to being able to prevent slipping, the anti-slip strip 30 can also prevent the first sealing part 27 from being detached from the cover 2. Preferably, the first sealing part 27 can form multiple anti-slip strips 30 through multiple channels on the cover 2, respectively.

[0084] The air hole 31 can be arranged on the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7 to communicate the first side and the second side of the cover body 1, the air passage 32 corresponding to the air hole 31 is arranged on the surface of the sliding cover 2 facing the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7, and the air hole sealing piece corresponding to the air hole 31 is arranged on the sliding cover 2. When the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, the air hole sealing piece seals the air hole 31; when the sliding cover 2 is in the open position, the air hole sealing piece is away from the air hole 31, the air hole 31 is communicated with the air passage 32, and the container can be communicated with the outside through the air hole 31 and the air passage 32 in addition to the drinking opening 4.

[0085] Specifically in the embodiment, the air hole sealing piece can be a third sealing part 29 protruding on the first sealing part 27, the third sealing part 29 is arranged on the first sealing part 27 in the direction of the bottom surface 8 of the sliding groove 7; the third sealing part 29 is annular structure. At this time, the third sealing part 29 is part of the elastic sealing piece 3, and the air hole sealing piece is part of the elastic sealing piece 3. Preferably, the third sealing part 29 can also be provided with multiple layers, and the annular structures of the multiple layers of the third sealing part 29 are sequentially sleeved, so as to improve the sealing effect.

[0086] The sliding cover 2 is a central symmetric structure, and the sliding cover 2 is provided with two elastic sealing pieces 3. When the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, the drinking opening 4 is located in the annular structure of the second sealing part 28 of one of the elastic sealing pieces 3, and the air hole 31 is located in the annular structure of the corresponding third sealing part 29 of the other elastic sealing piece 3. In this way, when the sliding cover 2 is in the closed position, the two elastic sealing pieces 3 seal the drinking opening 4 and the air hole 31, respectively.

[0087] Preferably, the entire elastic sealing piece 3 is integrally made, and the elastic sealing piece 3 is made of silica gel or rubber.

[0088] Of course, in other embodiments, the elastic sealing piece 3 and the air hole sealing piece can also adopt other structures, for example, in the embodiment in which the elastic sealing piece 3 is only provided with the first sealing part 27 (without the second sealing part 28), the part of the elastic sealing piece 3 after the central symmetry can be used as the air hole sealing piece.

[0089] The embodiments of the utility model are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. Even if various changes are made to the utility model, as long as the changes belong to the scope of the utility model claims and equivalent technologies, they still fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
