Description

A UVC sterilization cup Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a water cup, and more particularly to a UVC sterilization cup. Background Technology

[0002] Water bottles are an essential item in daily life, especially for students, travelers, outdoor sports enthusiasts, and scientific expedition personnel who often carry them with them. However, water stored in water bottles for extended periods can easily breed bacteria, and even after drinking, the damp environment inside the bottle remains a breeding ground for bacteria, directly impacting the health of the drinker.

[0003] Therefore, a water cup using ultraviolet sterilization (CN202022643746-Intelligent Sterilization Water Cup and Intelligent Sterilization System-Utility Model) has emerged, which can effectively kill bacteria. As shown in Figure 3, the bottom of the container has a light-transmitting hole, and a quartz glass plate at the bottom of the container seals the light-transmitting hole, thereby isolating the container space inside the lid from the cavity in the lid itself. This prevents moisture from entering the container space and damaging the circuit, while allowing ultraviolet light to pass through well.

[0004] However, the above structure lacks a waterproof feature between the quartz glass plate and the bottom of the containing space, making it easy for liquid to seep into the containing space from between the quartz glass plate and the bottom of the containing space. Therefore, this application designs a UVC sterilization cup to solve the above problem. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a UVC sterilization cup.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0007] A UVC sterilization cup includes a cup lid and a receiving cavity disposed within the cup lid. The bottom surface of the receiving cavity is provided with a light-transmitting hole and a glass plate. A UVC circuit board and a UVC lamp disposed on the UVC circuit board are disposed within the receiving cavity. The cup is characterized in that it further includes a sealing ring. The inner side wall of the inner hole of the sealing ring is provided with a slot. The glass plate is embedded in the slot. The sealing ring is locked by the UVC circuit board and is in sealed contact with the bottom surface of the receiving cavity and the surface of the glass plate. The light from the UVC lamp is emitted through the inner hole of the sealing ring, the glass plate, and the light-transmitting hole.

[0008] The bottom surface of the accommodating cavity is provided with an annular waterproof baffle, and the sealing ring and the light-transmitting hole are both located in the waterproof baffle. The sealing ring contacts the waterproof baffle to seal it.

[0009] The outer wall of the sealing ring is provided with protruding ridges that can be pressed against the waterproof baffle.

[0010] The cup lid includes an inner liner and a glass panel. The accommodating cavity is located in the inner liner and is closed by the glass panel. The inner liner contains a battery and a display module. The accommodating cavity has a boss. The battery is located on a UVC circuit board and supported by the boss. The battery is fixed in the accommodating cavity by the display module and the glass panel.

[0011] A heat-insulating material is provided between the battery and the UVC circuit board.

[0012] The UVC circuit board is equipped with a temperature sensing element.

[0013] The sealing ring is provided with a temperature sensing hole, and the temperature sensing element is located in the temperature sensing hole.

[0014] The temperature sensing hole is connected to the card slot.

[0015] The temperature sensing hole is filled with thermally conductive silver paste.

[0016] One edge of the sealing ring protrudes, and the temperature sensing hole is located inside the protrusion.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model is equipped with a sealing ring, and a slot is provided on the inner side wall of the inner hole of the sealing ring. The glass plate is embedded in the slot. Therefore, when the sealing ring is locked by the UVC circuit board, the sealing ring can make sealed contact with the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity and the surface of the glass plate, thereby achieving sealing and waterproofing, and preventing water from seeping into the accommodating cavity from the light-transmitting hole, causing damage to the circuit components.

[0029] scope.

[0030] As will be fully understood by those skilled in the art, the features of the different embodiments of this disclosure may be coupled or combined with each other in part or in whole, and may cooperate with each other and be technically driven in various ways. The embodiments of this disclosure may be implemented independently of each other, or may be implemented together in an interdependent relationship.

[0031] Referring to Figures 1 to 4, this utility model discloses a UVC sterilization cup, including a cup lid 1 and a receiving cavity 2 disposed within the cup lid 1. The cup lid 1 is a conventional cylindrical shape. The bottom surface of the receiving cavity 2 is provided with a light-transmitting hole 3 and a glass plate 4. The receiving cavity 2 is provided with a UVC circuit board 5 and a UVC lamp 8 disposed on the UVC circuit board 5. It also includes a sealing ring 7. The inner wall of the inner hole of the sealing ring 7 is provided with a groove 6. The glass plate 4 is embedded in the groove 6. The inner hole of the sealing ring 7 and the light-transmitting hole 3 are at different heights, but the positions of the light-transmitting hole 3 and the inner hole of the sealing ring 7 are misaligned and overlapped. Therefore, the light from the UVC lamp 8 is emitted through the inner hole of the sealing ring 7, the glass plate 4, and the light-transmitting hole 3. The ring 7 is locked in place by the UVC circuit board 5 to seal against the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 2 and the surface of the glass plate 4. Specifically, the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 2 is provided with a connecting post 9 with a screw hole. The UVC circuit board 5 is fixed by connecting the connecting post 9 with screws, and at the same time, the sealing ring 7 is pressed against the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 2. In this way, the sealing ring 7 is sealed by close contact with the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 2 and the surface of the glass plate 4. Moreover, the above structure is simple. The sealing ring 7 is locked by the installation of the circuit board without the need for additional fasteners. The glass plate 4 is preferably a quartz glass plate, and the sealing ring 7 is preferably made of silicone material. Because silicone is relatively soft, the glass plate 7 can directly pull open the sealing ring 7 and lock it into the slot 6.

[0032] As shown in the figure, an annular waterproof baffle 10 is provided on the bottom surface of the accommodating cavity 2, and the sealing ring 7 and the light-transmitting hole 3 are both located in the waterproof baffle 10. The sealing ring 7 contacts the waterproof baffle 10 to seal. Through the above structure, the sealing ring 7 can still contact the waterproof baffle 10 to seal after being deformed by compression, thereby increasing the contact area and achieving better sealing. As a further preferred structure, the outer wall of the sealing ring 7 is provided with a protruding ridge 11 that can be pressed against the waterproof baffle 10. The protruding ridge 11 can contact the waterproof baffle 10 more tightly, thus further improving the sealing effect.

[0033] As shown in the figure, the cup lid 1 includes an inner liner 12 and a glass panel 13, as well as an outer shell 14. The inner liner 12 is located inside the outer shell 14 and is made of plastic. The outer wall of the inner liner 12 has threads, and the inner liner 12 is connected to the mouth of the cup body 15 through the threads. The mouth of the cup body 15 is inserted into the groove between the inner liner 12 and the outer shell 14. The above structure is the connection structure between the cup lid 1 and the cup body 15 of the current mainstream water cups. The accommodating cavity 2 described in this application is located in the inner liner 12 and is sealed by the glass panel 13. The glass panel 13 is glued to the inner liner 12 and the outer shell 14. The glass panel 13 is light-transmitting and sealed, thereby displaying the content of the display module 16. The inner liner 12 is equipped with a battery 17 and a display module 16. The battery 17 supplies power to the inner liner 12 and the display module 16. The display module 16 and the UVC lamp 8 are powered. The cavity 2 is provided with a boss. The battery 17 is located on the UVC circuit board 5 and supported by the boss 18. The battery 17 is fixed in the cavity 2 by the display module 16 and the glass panel 13. The above structure reflects the rationality of component installation. The battery 17 is fixed using existing components without the need for additional fasteners, and the space structure for accommodating the battery 17 is simplified. As a further structure, a heat insulation material (not shown in the figure) is provided between the battery 17 and the UVC circuit board 5. The heat insulation material is preferably EVA cotton, which has a certain elasticity and can insulate heat. The display module 16 presses the battery 17 with the EVA cotton, which can not only fix the battery 17 well, but also play a role in heat insulation.

[0034] As shown in the figure, the UVC circuit board 5 is equipped with a temperature sensing element (not shown in the figure). The temperature sensing element can detect the temperature and display the temperature of the water in the cup, so that people can drink water at a suitable temperature without having to drink a little water to feel the temperature as before. Of course, the temperature sensing element is existing technology, so its specific circuit structure will not be described in detail.

[0035] In this application, the sealing ring 7 is provided with a temperature sensing hole 19, and the temperature sensing element is located in the temperature sensing hole 19, which communicates with the slot 6. Through the above structure, this application not only allows the temperature sensing element to be positioned in a better temperature measurement location for accurate detection, but also makes full use of the sealing ring 7 as the housing space for the temperature sensing element. Of course, for more accurate temperature sensing, thermally conductive silver paste is provided in the temperature sensing hole 19, making heat transfer more direct and rapid.

[0036] As shown in the figure, one side edge of the sealing ring 7 has a protrusion 20, and the temperature sensing hole 19 is located inside the protrusion 20. The protrusion 20 increases the area of ​​one side of the sealing ring 7, thereby facilitating the setting of the temperature sensing hole 19.

[0037] In this application, the battery 17, the display module 16, and the UVC lamp 8 on the UVC circuit board 5 are all prior art, so their circuit structures are not described in detail. This application is not an improvement on their circuit structures, but only an improvement on their mounting structures.

[0038] The above provides a detailed description of a UVC sterilization cup provided by the embodiments of this utility model. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
