Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of fan water cup technology, and more specifically, it relates to a waterproof structure for a fan water cup. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor sports water bottles, as representative products of multifunctional integrated equipment, have broken through the single function of traditional water storage containers with their innovative designs. Taking smart water bottles with heat dissipation functions as an example, the integration of an embedded fan system in the bottle body achieves the dual benefits of water storage and active airflow cooling.

[0003] However, the structural design of this type of product has significant technical drawbacks: the cup lid assembly with integrated electronic modules (including core components such as batteries and circuit boards) is susceptible to liquid penetration in actual user scenarios due to flawed sealing design. This insufficient waterproofing, leading to water ingress into the circuit system, has become a major technical bottleneck affecting product reliability and lifespan. Therefore, in view of this, research and improvements have been made to the existing structure and its shortcomings, providing a waterproof structure for a fan cup to achieve greater practical value. Utility Model Content

An electronic component for controlling the fan assembly is fixedly mounted inside the mounting cavity. A clamping strip is provided on the top side of the lower cover corresponding to the mounting cavity. A sealing gasket is connected to the clamping strip. A protruding edge is provided on the bottom side of the mounting cavity corresponding to the sealing gasket. The bottom side of the protruding edge abuts against the top side of the outer edge of the sealing gasket.

[0006] Furthermore, the top cover is provided with a connection hole for the charging interface to pass through, and the inner side of the mounting cavity is provided with a baffle corresponding to the connection hole, and the baffle is filled with sealant.

The connecting posts are provided with through holes, and the inner side of the through holes is connected with fastening screws that can be threadedly connected to the screw posts.

[0008] Furthermore, a receiving groove is provided on one side of the lower cover corresponding to the top of the water storage cup, and a sealing ring is connected to the inner side of the receiving groove, with the bottom side of the sealing ring abutting against the top of the water storage cup.

[0009] Furthermore, one side of the mounting cavity is provided with a mounting chamber for mounting a hinge connected to the fan, and the inside of the wire exit hole of the mounting chamber is filled with epoxy resin.

[0010] Furthermore, the top side of the sealing gasket is provided with a fitting strip that has the same shape as the inside of the mounting cavity, and a pressing and sealing part is provided on the outer side near the fitting strip; the sealing gasket is made of rubber.

A protruding edge 7 is provided on the bottom side of the installation cavity 3 corresponding to the sealing gasket 6. The bottom side of the protruding edge 7 abuts against the top side of the outer edge of the sealing gasket 6.

[0031] The upper cover 11 is provided with a connection hole for the charging interface to pass through. The inner side of the mounting cavity 3 is provided with a baffle 4 corresponding to the connection hole. The baffle 4 is filled with sealant to prevent external water from entering the mounting cavity 3 through the connection hole and causing damage to the electronic components.

[0032] The lower cover 2 has multiple sets of screw posts 8 on its top side, and the upper cover 11 has multiple sets of connecting posts 9 corresponding to the multiple sets of screw posts 8.
