[0023] 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.
[0024] Please see Figs. 1 to 3 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0025] Example 1: A simple teapot includes a brewing vessel 4 and a tea container 9. A liquid switch valve assembly is provided at the lower end of the brewing vessel 4. The brewing vessel 4 is placed on the upper end of the tea container 9. The liquid switch valve assembly is provided with a top valve 2 and a valve locking bead 7 that are elastically connected. A top holding assembly is provided at the upper end of the tea container 9. The valve locking bead 7 controls the opening and closing of the top valve 2 by being pressed against the top holding assembly by the gravity of the brewing vessel 4.
[0026] First, place the tea leaves and other ingredients to be steeped into the brewing vessel 4. At this time, the brewing vessel 4 is suspended in the air, or its lower valve locking bead 7 is suspended in the air to avoid upward pressure on the top valve 2. Under the action of elasticity, the top valve 2 closes. After the tea is brewed, place the brewing vessel 4 on the top of the tea container 9. At this time, due to the overall weight of the brewing vessel 4, the valve locking bead 7 and the top holding component press against each other, thereby driving the valve locking bead 7 to move upward and driving the top valve 2 to spring upward. At this time, the top valve 2 opens, and the brewed tea in the brewing vessel 4 falls into the inner cavity of the tea container 9. This eliminates the need for a person to hold the brewing vessel 4 all the time, improving the convenience of tea brewing.
[0027] Example 2: Based on Example 1, a sealing end cap 1 is provided at the upper port of the foaming vessel 4. The liquid switch valve assembly includes an upper fixed frame 3 and a lower fixed frame 6, which are locked together. The upper fixed frame 3 is provided with a water inlet hole, and the lower fixed frame 6 is provided with a water outlet hole. The water inlet hole and the water outlet hole are correspondingly connected. A top valve 2 is provided at the upper end of the upper fixed frame 3 through an elastic component. The top valve 2 is tightly fitted to the upper fixed frame 3 under elastic drive, and the upper pressure plate of the top valve 2 covers the upper end of the water inlet hole.
[0028] By setting inlet and outlet holes, the tea water can be circulated after brewing, and the liquid switch valve assembly can be opened and closed in conjunction with the top valve 2.
[0029] The elastic component is set as a movable spring 5. The upper fixed frame 3 is installed at the lower end of the inner cavity of the brewing vessel 4. The lower fixed frame 6 is set on the lower outer wall of the brewing vessel 4. The top valve 2 and the upper fixed frame 3 are elastically connected by the movable spring 5. The lower end of the lower fixed frame 6 is provided with a valve locking ball 7 connected to the top valve 2. Under the action of the top holding component, the valve locking ball 7 can compress the movable spring 5.
[0030] The top valve 2 and the valve locking ball 7 are elastically installed by setting the movable spring 5. Under the elastic force of the movable spring 5, the top valve 2 is tightly pressed above the water inlet hole to achieve isolation. When the top holding component squeezes the valve locking ball 7, the top valve 2 is driven to rise due to the restoring elastic force of the movable spring 5, so that the brewed tea water enters the tea container 9 along the water inlet hole and the water outlet hole.
[0031] Example 3: Based on Example 2, the top support component is set as filter 8. Filter 8 is installed inside the upper port of tea container 9. Valve locking ball 7 can abut against filter 8 so that movable spring 5 bounces up and drives top valve 2 to separate from upper fixed frame 3.
[0032] By setting up filter 8, it can interact with valve locking bead 7 to drive the top valve 2 to open, and can also further filter the tea water that falls after the top valve 2 opens.
[0033] The outer diameter of the lower fixing bracket 6 is smaller than the inner diameter of the upper port of the filter 8. By limiting the size, it is ensured that the falling tea water falls accurately into the inner cavity of the tea container 9, avoiding lateral overflow.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
