Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of teacup technology, and in particular to a tea-water separation cup. Background Technology

[0002] As society develops and living standards improve, people have higher and higher requirements for teacups. For Gongfu tea, the steeping time with boiling water should not be too long, otherwise the unique flavor of the tea will be lost. When brewing tea in a teacup, if the tea leaves are placed directly into the cup, some leaves may sometimes enter the mouth with the tea, affecting the drinking experience.

[0003] Some existing tea cups are designed with two separate chambers to separate tea leaves from boiling water in order to meet the need for tea and water separation. However, in order to soak the tea leaves, most tea cups use a large chamber to hold the tea leaves and allow the boiling water to fully soak the tea leaves. Therefore, this makes the tea cup bulky and not easy to carry. Therefore, how to solve the above problems is the purpose of this application.

[0004] The above content is only used to help understand the technical solution of this application and does not represent an admission that the above content is the closest prior art to this application. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Based on this, this application provides a tea-water separation cup to solve one of the aforementioned technical problems.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this application to solve its technical problem is a tea-water separator cup, including: a cup body, a cup lid, and a filter plate. The cup lid includes an upper top cover and a lower top cover. The upper top cover is rotatably disposed above the lower top cover. A limiting device is provided between the upper top cover and the lower top cover to temporarily fix the positional relationship between the upper top cover and the lower top cover. The filter plate can slide within the cup body and is connected to the upper top cover by a hanging rope. The hanging rope passes through the lower top cover and can fix the filter plate below the lower top cover. By rotating the upper top cover, the hanging rope can be wrapped around the outer periphery of the lower top cover and the filter plate can be lifted.

[0007] In some embodiments, the lower top cover includes a surrounding portion and a connecting portion. The connecting portion is used to connect the cup body, the surrounding portion is disposed above the connecting portion for cooperating with the hanging rope, and the bottom of the connecting portion has a receiving groove similar to the outline of the filter plate.

[0008] In some embodiments, an elastic sealing ring is provided in the receiving groove.

[0009] In some embodiments, a locking pin is installed at the axial position of the top of the lower cover to connect the upper cover and the lower cover, and the upper cover is rotatable relative to the lower cover.

[0010] In some embodiments, the locking pin is made of a metal material that can be magnetically attracted, and a magnet is provided on the outer periphery of the cup body.

[0011] In some embodiments, the limiting device includes a spring and a ball. The upper cover has a spring groove. One end of the spring is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the spring groove, and the other end is connected to the ball. The top of the lower cover has a groove that mates with the ball, so that the upper cover can be temporarily fixed in the groove.

[0012] In some embodiments, the filter plate is made of metal.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows: This application can loosen the hanging rope and remove the cup lid, so that the filter plate is still in the cup body, put the tea leaves in, and put the top cover on. After a predetermined time, the top cover can be rotated to tighten the hanging rope. The filter plate will then move the tea leaves located between the filter plate and the cup lid upwards in sync and place them in the receiving slot. The receiving slot occupies very little space, which greatly reduces the space occupied by the conventional tea-water separation cup with two chambers. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. In addition, the technical solutions of various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those of ordinary skill in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] In the embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, this application provides a tea-water separator cup, mainly comprising: a cup body 1, a cup lid 2, and a filter plate 3. The cup lid 2 includes an upper top cover 21 and a lower top cover 22. The upper top cover 21 is rotatably disposed above the lower top cover 22. A limiting device 5 is provided between the upper top cover 21 and the lower top cover 22 to temporarily fix the positional relationship between the upper top cover 21 and the lower top cover 22. The filter plate 3 can slide within the cup body 1 and is connected to the upper top cover 21 by a hanging rope 4. The hanging rope 4 passes through the lower top cover 22 and can fix the filter plate 3 below the lower top cover 22. By rotating the upper top cover 21, the hanging rope 4 can be wrapped around the outer periphery of the lower top cover 22 and the filter plate 3 can be lifted.

[0021] Specifically, when brewing tea, the upper lid 21 is rotated to loosen the hanging rope 4, allowing the filter plate 3 to fall naturally into the cup body 1. Once it reaches the predetermined length, the lid 2 is unscrewed, and tea leaves are placed inside, placing them above the filter plate 3. The user can then brew the tea according to their preference. When the tea is ready and the user wants to separate the tea leaves, the upper lid 21 is closed, and the upper lid 21 is rotated. This causes the hanging rope 4 to lift the filter plate 3 by wrapping around the lower lid 22 until it reaches its highest point. At this point, the upper lid 21 can no longer rotate and is stopped in place by the limiting device 5, preventing the filter plate 3 from falling and effectively separating the tea leaves from the tea. If the tea concentration is not satisfactory, the filter plate 3 can still be lowered to re-soak the tea leaves. When brewing tea is not required, the filter plate 3 can be lifted and used as a regular water cup.

[0022] The following will continue to describe some preferred / improved embodiments based on the above embodiments. Any one of the following embodiments can be selected, or multiple embodiments can be combined.

[0023] Specifically, the lower top cover 22 includes a surrounding part 221 and a connecting part 222. The connecting part 222 is used to connect the cup body 1. The surrounding part 221 is disposed above the connecting part 222 for cooperating with the hanging rope 4. The bottom of the connecting part 222 is provided with a receiving groove 2221 that is similar to the outline of the filter plate 3. In this way, the receiving groove 2221 can be used to receive tea leaves between the lower top cover 22 and the filter plate 3.

[0024] Preferably, in order to prevent tea from flowing out from the hole in the lower cover 22 through the hanging rope 4, an elastic sealing ring 2222 is provided in the receiving groove 2221. The elastic sealing ring 2222 is located on the outer periphery of the receiving groove 2221 and can abut against the edge of the top of the filter plate 3, thus ensuring the sealing of the inside of the cup body 1.

[0025] Reference Figure 2 As shown, a locking pin 23 is installed at the axial position of the top of the lower top cover 22 to connect the upper top cover 21 and the lower top cover 22. The upper top cover 21 is rotatable relative to the lower top cover 22. The locking pin 23 can serve as a connector connecting the upper top cover 21 and the lower top cover 22, and can also serve as the axis of rotation of the upper top cover 21.

[0026] Preferably, the locking pin 23 is made of a metal material that can be magnetically attracted, and a magnet 6 is provided on the outer periphery of the cup body 1. This arrangement allows the cup lid 2 to be temporarily attached to the cup body when tea leaves are added, preventing the filter plate 3 from being accidentally pulled out when the cup lid 2 needs to be placed.

[0027] Specifically, in order to prevent the upper cover 21 from rotating automatically under the weight of the filter plate 3 and causing the filter plate 3 to sink, the limiting device 5 includes a spring 51 and a ball 52. The upper cover 21 has a spring groove 211. One end of the spring 51 is fixedly set at the bottom of the spring groove 211, and the other end is connected to the ball 52. The top of the lower cover 22 has a groove that cooperates with the ball 52, so that the upper cover 21 can be temporarily fixed in the groove.

[0028] Preferably, in order to allow the filter plate 3 to sink naturally into the water, the filter plate 3 is made of metal.
