Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of children's water cups, and in particular to a children's water cup with an adjustable and detachable handle. Background Technology
[0002] Children's water bottles are essential items in the daily lives of infants and children, mainly used for holding drinking water, milk, or other beverages. Their design typically prioritizes safety, leak-proofness, ease of cleaning, and ergonomic grip comfort for children. As a crucial component of the children's water bottle, the handle's design directly impacts the convenience and comfort of children drinking water or milk independently. A well-designed handle should help children of different ages easily grasp it, fostering their ability to feed themselves independently.
[0003] Most children's water bottles on the market currently use fixed handles, meaning the relative position of the handle to the cup body is fixed. This makes it impossible to flexibly adjust the handle according to children's different gripping habits, changes in gripping posture as they grow older (e.g., from palm gripping to finger gripping), or different usage scenarios (e.g., drinking water, drinking milk, or tilting the cup with both hands). This may cause discomfort or strain for children in certain gripping postures, and even affect their willingness to use the bottle independently. Furthermore, the fixed handle forms a protruding structure on the outside of the cup body, which takes up a lot of space when the water bottle needs to be put into a backpack, diaper bag, or other storage space, making storage inconvenient and reducing the product's portability. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technical solutions, this utility model provides a children's water cup with an adjustable and detachable handle, which can effectively solve the technical problem that the handle cannot be adjusted or detached.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0006] A children's water bottle with an adjustable and detachable handle includes a cup body, a cup lid, and a handle. The cup lid is detachably fitted onto the opening of the cup body. The handle is located on the outside of the cup body and the cup lid. The handle and the cup lid are installed through a detachable connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism includes a ball-head connector located on the side wall of the cup lid and a ball-and-socket connector located on the inside of the handle. The ball-head connector can be paired and inserted into the ball-head connector. The ball-and-socket connector can rotate freely relative to the ball-head connector. A ball-head connector is installed on the outside of the ball-head connector. The surface of the ball-head connector can be clamped by the inner wall of the ball-head connector through a locking member.
[0007] Furthermore, the locking element is a locking ring, and the interior of the locking ring is threadedly connected to the surface of the ball-and-socket connection.
[0008] Furthermore, the ball-and-socket connection is composed of three or more elastic claws, with deformation gaps between the elastic claws. The inner walls of the elastic claws are provided with arc-shaped grooves. The three or more elastic claws surround one circle, and the arc-shaped grooves combine to form a ball-and-socket that matches the ball-and-socket connection.
[0009] Furthermore, the cup lid is provided with a drinking spout and a drinking cap, the drinking cap being rotatably connected to the cup lid, and the drinking cap being able to cover the drinking spout.
[0010] Furthermore, a silicone suction cup is installed inside the drinking spout, and a storage groove for storing the silicone suction cup is provided on the surface of the cup lid.
[0011] Furthermore, the ball-head connector can be paired with a detachable hook, and the hook is provided with a strap groove for installing a shoulder strap.
[0012] Furthermore, the hook is provided with a groove for engaging the ball head connector and a through hole passing through the ball head connector, the groove being located at the edge of the through hole and communicating with the through hole.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this invention are: the handle angle is flexibly adjustable, improving grip comfort and adaptability. Through the cooperation of the ball-head connector on the side wall of the lid and the ball-and-socket connector on the inside of the handle, the handle can rotate freely at multiple angles relative to the lid and the cup body. The handle can be easily rotated to the most suitable position for the current usage scenario. The locking mechanism ensures that the inner wall of the ball-and-socket connector reliably clamps the surface of the ball-head connector. This design allows the handle to be securely locked after adjustment to the desired angle. When the handle is not needed, the user can easily detach it from the lid. After detachment, the cup body structure is more compact, significantly reducing space occupation and greatly improving the product's portability. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0021] 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.
[0022] The following is combined Figures 1-6 This invention provides a detailed description of a children's water bottle with an adjustable and detachable handle:
[0023] A children's water bottle with an adjustable and detachable handle includes a cup body 1, a cup lid 2, and a handle 3. The cup lid 2 is detachably fitted onto the opening of the cup body 1. The handle 3 is located on the outside of the cup body 1 and the cup lid 2. The handle 3 and the cup lid 2 are installed through a detachable connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism includes a ball-head connector 4 located on the side wall of the cup lid 2 and a ball-and-socket connector 5 located on the inside of the handle 3. The ball-head connector 4 can be paired and inserted into the ball-head connector 4. The ball-and-socket connector 5 can rotate freely relative to the ball-head connector 4. The ball-head connector 4 is installed on the outside of the ball-head connector 4. The surface of the ball-head connector 4 can be clamped by the inner wall of the locking member 6.
[0024] The handle 3 is flexibly adjustable, enhancing grip comfort and adaptability. Through the interaction of the ball joint 4 on the side wall of the lid 2 and the ball socket 5 on the inner side of the handle 3, the handle 3 can freely rotate at multiple angles relative to the lid 2 and the cup body 1. The handle 3 can be easily rotated to the optimal angle for the current usage scenario, such as drinking milk or water, allowing for independent gripping by children, or aligning with a child's individual gripping habits. This significantly improves grip comfort, stability, and ease of operation, meeting the needs of children of different ages. The locking element 6 reliably clamps the surface of the ball joint 4 to the inner wall of the ball socket 5. This design ensures that the handle 3 is securely locked after adjustment to the desired angle, preventing angle shift or loosening due to accidental contact or force during use, thus ensuring safety and reliability for children's gripping and drinking. When the handle 3 is not needed, or in situations where space is limited such as when the cup needs to be placed in a bag, the user can easily detach the handle 3 from the lid 2 by releasing the locking element 6. After disassembly, the cup body 1 has a more compact structure, significantly reducing the space occupied and making the water cup easier to carry and store, greatly improving the product's portability.
[0025] The locking element 6 is a locking ring. The inside of the locking ring is threadedly connected to the surface of the ball socket connection part 5. When the locking ring is rotated, the thread generates axial displacement, which pushes the inner wall of the ball socket connection part 5 to uniformly and tightly fit the ball head surface, achieving a firm lock and effectively preventing the handle 3 from being accidentally rotated or loosened during use. The threaded structure makes the locking and unlocking operations more intuitive and convenient, which users can easily complete. Users can also clearly perceive the degree of locking by hand. The threaded fit itself has high mechanical strength and reliability, ensuring the stability and durability of the locking mechanism in long-term repeated use.
[0026] The ball-and-socket connection 5 consists of four elastic jaws 501, with a deformation gap 502 between them. The inner wall of each elastic jaw 501 has an arc-shaped groove 503. The four elastic jaws 501 surround the ball, and the arc-shaped grooves 503 combine to form a ball-and-socket connection that matches the ball-and-socket connection 4. When the ball is inserted or locked, the elastic jaws 501 undergo radial elastic deformation. This allows the ball to smoothly insert into the ball-and-socket connection, and also adaptively and tightly wraps around ball surfaces of different sizes or with slight manufacturing errors, improving the fitting accuracy and the uniformity of the clamping force distribution. The arc-shaped grooves 503 on the inner wall of the jaws precisely match the curvature of the ball, and the complete ball-and-socket connection formed by multiple grooves greatly increases the contact area. When a locking ring applies force, the pressure distribution on the contact surface is more uniform, thus providing a strong and evenly distributed clamping force in the locked state, ensuring that the handle 3 can be securely locked at any angle and preventing slippage.
[0027] The cup lid 2 is provided with a drinking spout 201 and a drinking cap 7. The drinking cap 7 is rotatably connected to the cup lid 2 and can close the drinking spout 201. A silicone sucker 8 is installed inside the drinking spout 201. The surface of the cup lid 2 is provided with a storage groove 202 for storing the silicone sucker 8. The silicone sucker 8 provides a soft and comfortable sucking experience, especially suitable for the delicate mouths of infants and young children, improving drinking comfort. When not in use, it can be flipped over to easily close the drinking spout 201, effectively preventing dust and foreign objects from entering the cup and ensuring the hygiene of the beverage. At the same time, the drinking cap 7 pushes the silicone sucker 8 to fold and store it in the storage groove 202. This effectively avoids the problem of the sucker being exposed to the outside and contaminated, dusty, or accidentally damaged, significantly improving the hygiene and safety of the product and its service life, while also making the cup lid 2 look cleaner.
[0028] The ball-head connector 4 can be paired with a detachable hook 9. The hook 9 has a strap groove 901 for attaching a shoulder strap. By replacing the handle 3 with a detachable hook 9 on the same ball-head connector 4, the user can install the shoulder strap in the strap groove 901 of the hook 9 and hang it on the cup. This greatly expands the ways to carry the water cup, allowing it to be carried on the shoulder or crossbody, making it particularly suitable for outings, travel, or hands-free scenarios, significantly improving portability and convenience. The hook 9 has a slot 903 that engages with the ball-head connector 4 and a through hole 902 that passes through the ball-head connector 4. The slot 903 is located at the edge of the through hole 902 and communicates with it. After the ball-head connector 4 passes through the through hole 902, it slides into the slot 903, and the hook 9 can rotate relative to the cup lid 2 through the slot 903.
