Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically to a straw that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] Straws are widely used tools in daily life and industry. Their basic function is to transfer beverages or liquids from a container to the mouth using atmospheric pressure. There are many types of straws, including disposable plastic straws, paper straws, metal straws, glass straws, and environmentally friendly biodegradable straws, each with its specific applications and advantages and disadvantages.

[0003] A straw typically consists of a tube. When people use a straw to drink water, they inhale to reduce the amount of air inside the straw, thereby lowering the air pressure inside. At this time, the atmospheric pressure outside the straw pushes the liquid into the straw until the liquid level reaches the height of the straw and enters the mouth.

[0004] However, because reusable straws are difficult to clean, beverage residue on the straw wall can easily breed bacteria, which can affect the user's health.

[0005] Based on this, the present invention designs a straw that is easy to clean in order to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

Limiting grooves are respectively opened on both sides of the left half tube. A metal sheet is embedded in the side of the limiting groove near the inner wall of the tube body. A limiting strip is fixedly installed on the upper part of the right half tube. A magnetic block is embedded in the side of the limiting strip near the inner wall of the tube body. Several rubber particles are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting strip. When the limiting strip is located in the limiting groove, the magnetic block is attracted to the metal sheet, and the rubber particles are pressed against both sides of the limiting groove. The left half tube and the right half tube form a tube body.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, during cleaning, force is applied to the left and right halves of the tube respectively, causing the left half and the right plate ring to separate, exposing the inner wall of the tube. At this time, a cleaning tool can be used to clean the inside of the tube. It is simple to use. After cleaning, the limiting groove on the left half and the limiting strip on the right half are aligned and then joined together. The magnetic attraction force of the metal sheet causes the rubber particles between the left and right halves to be squeezed, forming a closed tube between the left and right halves. The straw can then be restored to its usable state. It is convenient to use, effectively reduces bacterial residue inside the straw, and improves the cleaning efficiency of the straw.

[0008] Preferably, a positioning block is fixedly provided at the bottom of the right half-pipe, and a positioning groove is provided at the bottom of the left half-pipe. When the left half-pipe and the right half-pipe form a pipe body, the positioning block is located in the positioning groove.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the two ends of the tube can be kept flush when the left and right halves are spliced, thus ensuring the splicing quality of the straw.

[0010] Preferably, a plurality of the rubber particles are arranged in a staggered manner on a horizontal line.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, no gap will be generated after the left half tube and the right half tube are spliced ​​together, and the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the tube can be formed normally when the straw is in use.

[0012] Preferably, the outer wall of the tube is provided with grooves, the grooves are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the tube, and elastic bands are sleeved in the grooves.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the splicing between the left and right halves of the tube is made tighter, further ensuring the quality of the straw.

[0014] Preferably, the tube body is made of plastic.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the straw is spliced, the left and right halves can exert relatively uniform pressure on the rubber particles, so that the rubber particles can achieve a better sealing effect.

[0016] In summary, this application has the following beneficial technical effects: By adopting the above technical solution, during cleaning, force is applied to the left and right halves of the tube respectively, causing the left half and the right plate ring to separate, exposing the inner wall of the tube. At this time, a cleaning tool can be used to clean the inside of the tube, which is simple to use. After cleaning, the limiting groove on the left half and the limiting strip on the right half are aligned and merged. Through the magnetic attraction of the metal sheet, the rubber particles between the left and right halves are squeezed, forming a closed tube between the left and right halves, and the straw can be restored to its usable state. It is convenient to use, effectively reduces bacterial residue inside the straw, and improves the cleaning efficiency of the straw. Attached Figure Description

[0025] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0027] A straw that is easy to clean includes a left half tube 1 and a right half tube 2. Limiting grooves 4 are respectively opened on both sides of the left half tube 1. A metal piece 6 is embedded in the side of the limiting groove 4 near the inner wall of the tube. A limiting strip 5 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the right half tube 2. A magnetic block 7 is embedded in the side of the limiting strip 5 near the inner wall of the tube. Several rubber particles 11 are fixedly installed on both sides of the limiting strip 5.

[0028] During cleaning, apply force to the left half 1 and right half 2 of the straw respectively, causing the limiting strip 5 to disengage from the limiting groove 4. The left half 1 and right half 2 separate from opposite sides, exposing the inner wall of the tube. At this point, cleaning tools can be used to quickly clean the inner wall of the tube. The operation is simple and convenient. After cleaning, bring the left half 1 and right half 2 closer together, align the limiting strip 5 with the limiting groove 4, and press the left half 1 and right half 2 so that the limiting strip 5 enters the limiting groove 4. The rubber particles 11 on both sides of the limiting strip 5 press against the left half 1. The magnetic block 7 attracts the metal sheet 6, making the connection between the left half 1 and right half 2 tighter. The left half 1 and right half 2 are quickly spliced ​​together, allowing the straw to be quickly disassembled and installed. This allows the inner wall of the straw to be cleaned better, reducing the difficulty of cleaning the inner wall of the straw and improving the cleaning efficiency of the straw.

[0029] The bottom of the right half tube 2 is provided with a fixed positioning block 9, and the bottom of the left half tube 1 is provided with a positioning groove 8. The outer wall of the tube body is provided with a groove 10, which is symmetrically arranged at both ends of the tube body. An elastic band 3 is sleeved in the groove 10. When the straw is spliced, the limiting strip 5 on the right half tube 2 slides along the limiting groove 4 until the positioning groove 8 and the positioning block 9 abut against each other, so that the two ends of the tube body are flush with each other. After the splicing is completed, the elastic band 3 is sleeved in the groove 10, so that the elastic band 3 can further squeeze the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2, so that the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 can fit together more tightly.

[0030] Several rubber granules 11 are arranged in a staggered manner on two horizontal lines. The tube body is made of plastic. The left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 are adhered to each other by the force of the magnetic block 7 and the elastic band 3, which causes the rubber granules 11 to be deformed by compression. After deformation, the rubber granules 11 can further reduce the gap between the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2, so that the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the tube can be formed normally when the straw is in use, thus ensuring the quality of the straw.

[0031] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: During cleaning, force is applied to the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 of the straw respectively, so that the limiting strip 5 is disengaged from the limiting groove 4, and the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 are separated from opposite sides. At this time, the inner wall of the tube is exposed, and cleaning tools can be used to quickly clean the inner wall of the tube. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0032] After cleaning, bring the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 closer together, align the limiting strip 5 with the limiting groove 4, press the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2, and then adjust the positions of the two ends of the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 so that the positioning groove 8 on the left half tube 1 abuts against the positioning block 9, keeping the two ends of the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 flush. At this time, the rubber particles 11 on both sides of the limiting strip 5 abut against the left half tube 1, and the magnetic block 7 adsorbs the metal sheet 6, making the connection between the left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 tighter. The left half tube 1 and the right half tube 2 are quickly spliced. After splicing, put the elastic band 3 into the groove 10, so that the straw can be quickly disassembled and installed, so that the inner wall of the straw can be better cleaned, reducing the difficulty of cleaning the inner wall of the straw and improving the cleaning efficiency of the straw.
