[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0035] This application discloses a teacup filter. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2The teacup filter includes a filter body 1 and a lower cover 2. The lower cover 2 has holes, and different lower cover 2s have different numbers and sizes of holes, allowing for the replacement of different lower cover 2s to meet different water flow rate requirements. The filter body 1 has a snap-fit ​​groove 3, which extends along the length and circumference of the filter body 1 to form an insertion section 31 and a snap-fit ​​section 32, and penetrates along the thickness of the filter body 1. The lower cover 2 is provided with a snap-fit ​​component 4. During installation, the snap-fit ​​component 4 is inserted along the insertion section 31 and the lower cover 2 is rotated to snap the snap-fit ​​component 4 into the snap-fit ​​section 32. Therefore, the lower cover 2 can be installed easily. The snap-fit ​​component 4 and the snap-fit ​​section 32 are engaged by an interference fit, making the installation of the lower cover 2 more stable.

[0036] In some embodiments, the snap-fit ​​section 32 and the insertion section 31 are arranged perpendicularly. The insertion section 31 is opened in a vertical direction, and the snap-fit ​​section 32 is opened in a horizontal direction, so that the lower cover 2 can be easily installed and removed.

[0037] In some embodiments, the width of the snap-fit ​​member 4 is less than the opening length of the snap-fit ​​section 32. That is, when the snap-fit ​​member 4 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​section 32, there is a gap between the snap-fit ​​member 4 and the insertion section 31, so that the lower cover 2 is not easy to fall off when subjected to external force, and the installation is more stable.

[0038] In some embodiments, at least two snap-fit ​​slots 3 are spaced apart along the circumference of the filter body 1, and snap-fit ​​members 4 are correspondingly provided with the snap-fit ​​slots 3, that is, the number and position of the snap-fit ​​members 4 correspond to the snap-fit ​​slots 3.

When the upper cover 6 is a complete circle, it is interference-fitted with the filter body 1, and is simultaneously limited and fixed by the protrusions 7.

[0042] In some embodiments, a silicone ring 8 is also included. The silicone ring 8 is connected to the outer periphery of the filter body 1. In this embodiment, the upper end of the filter body 1 has an edge. The silicone ring 8 is sleeved on the filter body 1 and initially positioned at the edge. The silicone ring 8 is provided with a plurality of water outlet grooves 9 spaced apart along the circumferential direction. The silicone ring 8 can generate friction with the inside of the cup body 10, thereby fixing the filter body 1 to the inner wall of the cup body 10. At the same time, water can be drunk through the water outlet grooves 9, preventing tea residue from being ingested.

[0043] The implementation principle of a teacup filter in this application embodiment is as follows: the snap-fit ​​groove 3 and the snap-fit ​​part 4 cooperate to realize the detachable connection of the lower cover 2 on the filter body 1, so that the lower cover 2 with different number of holes or different hole sizes can be replaced according to user needs, thereby controlling the water flow rate when brewing different teas, improving the versatility and applicability of the teacup filter, and meeting the user's needs for brewing different types of teas.

[0044] This application discloses a teacup. (Refer to...) Figure 4 The teacup includes the aforementioned teacup filter and cup body 10, with the filter body 1 detachably connected to the cup body 10.

[0045] In some embodiments, a silicone ring 8 is also included. The silicone ring 8 is connected to the outer periphery of the filter body 1, and the silicone ring 8 is provided with a plurality of water outlet grooves 9 spaced apart along the circumferential direction. When the filter body 1 is installed on the cup body 10, the silicone ring 8 is engaged with the cup body 10 by friction.

[0046] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
