[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] A sliding-lid water cup includes a cup body 1 and a cup lid 2, which are connected by threads. The cup lid 2 has a rotatable sliding base 3, and the sliding base 3 has a sliding lid assembly 4 that can be slidably opened or closed. A connecting part 5 is provided between the sliding lid assembly 4 and the sliding base 3. The sliding lid assembly 4 is slidably mounted on the upper end of the sliding base 3 via the connecting part 5. The lid can be opened by sliding to allow the user to drink water. The operation is simple and convenient, and it can be opened with one hand; the user can open the lid with the other hand while holding an item in one hand. A guide part 6 and a limiting part 7 are provided between the sliding lid assembly 4 and the sliding base 3. The sliding lid assembly opens or closes along the guide part, ensuring the movement trajectory of the sliding lid assembly and preventing misalignment. After the sliding lid assembly 4 is opened or closed, it is limited by the limiting part 7 to prevent the sliding lid assembly 4 from automatically closing when the user drinks water, or the sliding lid assembly in a closed state from automatically opening, ensuring a good user experience.
[0028] The sliding cover assembly 4 includes an upper sliding cover 8 and a lower sliding cover 9 that are interlocked, and the upper sliding cover 8 and the lower sliding cover 9 are detachably connected. The connecting part 5 includes a guide groove 10 extending from one end of the center of the lower sliding cover 9 to the other end, a guide post 11 extending upward from one end of the sliding cover base 3 and passing through the guide groove 10, and a limiting block 12 installed on the top of the guide post 11 and larger in size than the guide post 11. The upper end of the guide groove 10 is provided with a limiting groove 13 for installing the limiting block 12. When the sliding cover assembly 4 slides, the guide post 11 moves within the guide groove 10, and the limiting block 12 moves within the limiting groove 13. The limiting block 12 is wider than the guide groove 10, which achieves the effect of longitudinally limiting the sliding cover assembly 4, so that it can only slide back and forth and cannot be pulled up to remove the sliding cover assembly 4. It also guides the sliding of the sliding cover assembly 4. If the sliding cover assembly 4 needs to be disassembled, the upper sliding cover 8 needs to be removed first, and then the limiting block 12 needs to be removed before the lower sliding cover 9 can be pulled up to remove it. Disassembly and installation are relatively simple.
[0029] The guide part 6 includes a slider 14 protruding upward from the top of the sliding cover base 3 and a groove at the bottom of the sliding cover assembly 4 that adapts to the slider 14. The guide part 6 is located on both sides of the connecting part 5. When the sliding cover assembly 4 is opened or closed, the slider 14 can slide in the groove, which further guides the sliding of the sliding cover assembly 4, prevents the sliding cover assembly 4 from becoming misaligned after long-term use, and makes the sliding of the sliding cover assembly 4 smoother, thus increasing the quality of the product.
[0030] The limiting part 7 includes a lower magnetic element 16 inside the slider 14 and a first upper magnetic element 17 and a second upper magnetic element 18 inside the sliding cover assembly 4. The first upper magnetic element 17 and the second upper magnetic element 18 are mounted on the sliding cover 9 and are located at both ends of the sliding groove, respectively. When the sliding cover assembly 4 slides outward to open, the lower magnetic element 16 is magnetically attracted to the first upper magnetic element 17. When the sliding cover assembly 4 slides inward to close, the lower magnetic element 16 is magnetically attracted to the second upper magnetic element 18. The limiting part 7 limits the movement by magnetic attraction.
[0031] The cup lid 2 has a downwardly extending cavity 19, within which a drive component 20 and a spout assembly 21 are housed. The upper end of the drive component 20 engages with the sliding base 3. The sliding base 3, drive component 20, and spout assembly 21 are linked together. The sliding base 3 has a spout hole 22 for raising and lowering the spout assembly 21. When the cup lid is opened, the sliding cover assembly 4 opens the spout hole 22, pushing the sliding cover assembly 4 to rotate the sliding base 3. The drive component 20 rotates with the sliding base 3 and drives the spout assembly 21 to rise above the sliding base 3 through the spout hole 22, allowing the user to drink the liquid from the cup body 1 using the spout assembly 21. When the cup lid is closed, the sliding cover assembly 4 rotates in the opposite direction, the drive component 20 rotates with the sliding base 3 and drives the spout assembly 21 to descend and hide inside the cavity 19, and the sliding cover assembly 4 closes the spout hole 22.
[0032] The driving component 20 includes a rotatable driving shell 23 placed within the cavity 19 and a screw cap 24 at the upper end of the driving shell 23. The cup lid 2 has a mounting groove 25, and the diameter of the screw cap 24 is smaller than that of the mounting groove 25. The screw cap 24 is rotatably mounted within the mounting groove 25. The sliding cover base 3 has a downwardly extending mounting ring 26 on its outer edge. The mounting ring 26 is adapted to the inner contour of the mounting groove 25. The mounting ring 26 wraps around the screw cap 24, and the inner wall of the mounting ring 26 is engaged with the outer wall of the screw cap 24. The sliding cover base 3 is linked to the screw cap 24 through the engagement. When the sliding cover base 3 rotates, it drives the screw cap 24 and the driving shell 23 to rotate.
[0033] The suction nozzle assembly 21 is installed inside the drive housing 23. The suction nozzle assembly 21 includes a guide pipe 27 for water inlet and a liftable suction nozzle 28 fitted onto the guide pipe 27. The inner wall of the cavity 19 is provided with a movable groove 29 extending upward in an arc shape from bottom to top. The side wall of the drive housing 23 is provided with a longitudinal groove 30. Movable blocks 31 on both sides of the suction nozzle protrude from the groove 30 and are engaged in the movable groove 29. When the drive component 20 rotates, the groove 30 rotates and pushes the movable blocks 31 to move along the trajectory of the movable groove 29, thereby raising and lowering the suction nozzle 28. The width of the groove 30 is equal to that of the movable blocks 31. During rotation, the movable blocks 31 always move up and down within the groove 30, serving a guiding function.
[0034] The inner wall of the bottom of the suction nozzle 28 is provided with a concave sealing groove 32, and a sealing ring 33 is provided in the sealing groove 32 to increase the sealing between the guide tube 27 and the suction nozzle 28 and prevent the liquid in the container from overflowing from the gap between the guide tube 27 and the suction nozzle 28 when it passes through the guide tube 27.
[0035] The bottom of the cavity 19 is provided with a downwardly extending assembly groove 34. The end of the guide tube 27 extends out of the bottom of the cavity 19 and is snapped into the assembly groove 34. The end of the guide tube 27 is rotatably installed in the assembly groove 34. The bottom of the assembly groove 34 is open. The bottom of the guide tube 27 is provided with a downwardly extending sealing element 35 extending out of the assembly groove 34. The sealing element 35 is rotatably engaged with the opening of the assembly groove 34 to form a seal, preventing liquid in the cup body 1 from passing through the gap between the sealing element 35 and the assembly groove 34.
[0036] The sealing element 35 has a slit 36. When the slit 36 is closed by squeezing both sides of the sealing element 35, the diameter of the sealing element 35 decreases, and the locking state with the opening of the assembly groove 34 is released. After removal, the nozzle assembly 21 can be pulled upwards for easy cleaning and to prevent dirt from accumulating inside after long-term use. Due to its soft rubber material, the sealing element 35 has a rebound force after being squeezed and can return to its original position.
[0037] The assembly slot 34 has an openable first water inlet 37 on one side, and a second water inlet 38 on the side wall of the end of the guide tube 27. When the spout assembly 21 is rotated to open, the guide tube 27 rotates until the second water inlet 38 is aligned with the first water inlet 37. Liquid in the cup body 1 can enter the guide tube 27 through the first water inlet 37 and the second water inlet 38, and finally be dispensed from the spout 28 for drinking. When the spout assembly 21 is rotated to close, the spout 28 descends and retracts into the drive housing 23. The guide tube 27 also rotates accordingly and closes the first water inlet 37, preventing liquid in the cup body 1 from entering.
[0038] A sealing ring 39 is provided between the assembly groove 34 and the guide tube 27. The sealing ring 39 is fitted onto the guide tube 27 and is used to increase the sealing performance after the first inlet 37 is closed. The sealing ring 39 has a hole 40 corresponding to the second inlet 38. When the sealing ring 39 is fitted onto the guide tube 27, the hole 30 corresponds to the second inlet 38. The sealing ring 39 rotates synchronously with the guide tube 27. When the spout assembly 2 rotates and rises, the hole 40 rotates until it is aligned with the first inlet 37. The liquid in the cup body 1 enters the guide tube 27 through the first inlet 37, the hole 40, and the second inlet 38 in sequence, and finally exits through the spout 22 for drinking.
[0039] The bottom of the cavity 19 is provided with a threaded straw adapter 41, which can be used to install a straw on the straw adapter 33. A lever 42 is provided on one side of the straw adapter 41 to facilitate the removal of the straw adapter 41 by rotating the lever 42.
[0040] The cup body 1 is provided with a silicone ring 43, and a protruding connecting hole 44 is provided on one side of the silicone ring 43. A detachable hanging ring 45 is provided on the connecting hole, which can be installed to lift the cup. The hanging rod 45 can be removed when not in use.
[0041] The cup lid 2 is equipped with a return air valve 46. When drinking continuously, negative pressure is generated. In order to ensure that the user can continue to drink, outside air can enter the cup body 1 through the return air valve 46 to balance the pressure difference between the inside and outside.
[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
