Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of water cup technology, and more specifically, to a double-walled water cup with built-in sound and light functions. Background Technology

[0002] As consumers increasingly demand both functionality and fun in everyday products, water bottles with sound and light functions are gaining widespread use due to their combination of practical value and interactive experience. On one hand, the sound and light components can provide practical functions such as water temperature reminders and anti-forgetting alarms, meeting users' needs for convenient drinking water; on the other hand, their dynamic light show and sound effect linkage design caters to the pursuit of fun and social sharing among young people and children.

[0003] Existing illuminated cups mostly use surface-mount LEDs or LED strips as light sources. Due to the lack of effective light conduction and homogenization design, unevenness is prone to occur, with some areas being too bright and others being dark at the edges. When large-area patterns need to be displayed, the light source is difficult to uniformly cover the pattern area, resulting in blurred light and shadow effects. On curved cup bodies, the light emitted by surface-mount LEDs or LED strips is easily deformed and distorted due to differences in the angle of refraction, affecting the visual presentation and user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a double-walled water cup with built-in sound and light functions.

[0005] The double-walled water cup with built-in sound and light functions provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A double-walled water cup with built-in sound and light functions includes an outer shell, an inner liner inside the outer shell, the outer shell and the inner liner being detachably connected, and a light-emitting component inside the outer shell.

[0007] The light-emitting component includes a light source, which is located at the bottom of the outer shell. One end of the light source is connected to multiple light guide pillars, and the top of each light guide pillar is connected to an acrylic light guide plate. The outer wall of each acrylic light guide plate is provided with light-shielding aluminum foil.

[0008] The light-emitting component is located between the outer shell and the inner liner.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the combination design of the bottom light source with light guide column and acrylic light guide plate uses the principle of total internal reflection to uniformly transmit light to the hollow pattern area of ​​the outer shell, avoiding the problem of local overbrightness and dark edges caused by light dispersion in traditional surface mount LEDs; the light-shielding aluminum foil further constrains the light path to ensure complete light and shadow coverage and consistent brightness.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer wall of the outer shell is provided with multiple hollow patterns, and multiple acrylic light guide plates are located on one side of the hollow patterns.

[0011] Furthermore, a controller is provided on one side of the light source, located at the bottom inside the outer shell, and a sound component is provided at one end of the controller.

[0012] Furthermore, a switch is located at the bottom of the outer casing, and a charging port is located on one side of the outer casing. The controller is electrically connected to the switch, light source, and sound components.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom of the inner liner is inclined, the top of the inner liner is fixedly connected with a connecting ring, and the top of the inner liner is provided with a cup lid.

[0014] Furthermore, the outer wall of the cup lid is provided with external threads, the inner wall of the outer shell is provided with internal threads, and the cup lid is threadedly connected to the inner shell.

[0015] Furthermore, a fixing ring is fixedly connected to one end of the inner liner, and the fixing ring is located below the connecting ring. A slot is provided at the top of the outer shell, and the fixing ring is inserted into the slot.

[0016] With the above technical solution, when the light-emitting components or circuit components in the interlayer malfunction, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire cup body. Only the inner liner needs to be removed to quickly locate the problematic component, which greatly reduces the difficulty and time cost of maintenance.

[0017] Furthermore, the bottom end of the inner liner is provided with a concave end, which abuts against the bottom end of the outer shell.

[0018] With the above technical solution, when the inner liner falls to its lowest point, the concave end at the bottom abuts against the bottom end of the outer shell, at which point the inner liner is installed.

[0019] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0020] (1) This utility model uses a combination design of bottom light source with light guide column and acrylic light guide plate to uniformly transmit light to the hollow pattern area of ​​the outer shell by using the principle of total internal reflection, avoiding the problem of local overbrightness and dark edges caused by light dispersion of traditional chip LEDs; the light-shielding aluminum foil further constrains the light path to ensure complete light and shadow coverage and consistent brightness.

[0021] (2) When the light-emitting components or circuit components in the interlayer fail, the entire cup body does not need to be disassembled. Only the inner liner needs to be removed to quickly locate the problematic component, which greatly reduces the difficulty and time cost of maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-6 A double-walled water cup with built-in sound and light functions includes an outer shell 1, an inner liner 6 on the inner side of the outer shell 1, the outer shell 1 and the inner liner 6 are detachably connected, and a light-emitting component is provided inside the outer shell 1.

[0031] The light-emitting component includes a light source 9, which is located at the bottom of the outer shell 1. One end of the light source 9 is connected to multiple light guide pillars 10, and the top of each of the multiple light guide pillars 10 is connected to an acrylic light guide plate 11. Each acrylic light guide plate 11 has a light-shielding aluminum foil 8 on its outer wall.

[0032] The light-emitting component is located between the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 6.

[0033] When the user turns on the power via the switch 5 at the bottom of the outer shell 1, the electrical energy stored in the built-in battery component (which is existing technology and not shown in the figure) is distributed to the light source 9 and the sound component by the controller 12. The controller 12 controls the light source 9 to emit light according to the preset program or the user's operation command. The light is transmitted to the acrylic light guide plate 11 through total internal reflection via the light guide column 10. It forms a specific light and shadow effect through the hollow pattern 2 of the outer shell 1. At the same time, the light-shielding aluminum foil 8 prevents light leakage and ensures the presentation of the light effect.

[0034] While emitting light, the sound component emits sound effects under the drive of controller 12, and the sound and light are synchronized to achieve an integrated sound and light display, meeting users' needs for both functionality and fun in the water cup.

[0035] The battery assembly is connected to an external power source via charging port 4 to replenish power. When the power is low, simply use the adapter charging cable to connect to charging port 4 to charge the built-in battery assembly.

[0036] Light source 9 is existing technology.

[0037] By combining the bottom light source 9 with the light guide column 10 and the acrylic light guide plate 11, the light is uniformly transmitted to the hollow pattern 2 area of ​​the outer shell 1 using the principle of total internal reflection, avoiding the problem of local overbrightness and dark edges caused by light dispersion in traditional surface mount LEDs; the light-shielding aluminum foil 8 further constrains the light path to ensure complete light and shadow coverage and consistent brightness.

[0038] Reference Figures 1-4 The outer wall of the outer shell 1 is provided with multiple hollow patterns 2, and multiple acrylic light guide plates 11 are located on one side of the hollow patterns 2. A controller 12 is provided on one side of the light source 9. The controller 12 is located at the inner bottom of the outer shell 1. A sound component is provided at one end of the controller 12. A switch 5 is provided at the bottom of the outer shell 1. A charging port 4 is provided on one side of the outer shell 1. The controller 12 is electrically connected to the switch 5, the light source 9 and the sound component.

[0039] When the user presses the switch 5 at the bottom of the outer casing 1, the power supply is activated, and the electrical energy from the built-in battery is transmitted through the circuit to the controller 12 located at the bottom inside the outer casing 1. The controller 12 then sends electrical signals to the light source 9 and the sound component according to a preset program or user operation command: on the one hand, it drives the light source 9 at the bottom to emit light, and on the other hand, the controller 12 synchronously controls the sound component to play corresponding sound effects, realizing sound and light linkage.

[0040] Reference Figures 5-6The bottom end of the inner liner 6 is inclined, and the top of the inner liner 6 is fixedly connected to a connecting ring 7. The top of the inner liner 6 is provided with a cup lid 3. The outer wall of the cup lid 3 is provided with an external thread 15, and the inner wall of the outer shell 1 is provided with an internal thread 14. The cup lid 3 is threadedly connected to the inner liner 6. One end of the inner liner 6 is fixedly connected to a fixing ring 13, which is located below the connecting ring 7. The top of the outer shell 1 is provided with a slot 16, and the fixing ring 13 is inserted into the slot 16. The bottom end of the inner liner 6 is provided with a concave end 17, which abuts against the bottom end of the outer shell 1.

[0041] The inner liner 6 and the cup lid 3 are threaded together by the corresponding structure of the external thread 15 and the inner wall of the inner liner 6, ensuring a tight seal and preventing leakage.

[0042] When it is necessary to separate the inner liner 6 from the outer shell 1, hold the outer shell 1 firmly with one hand and gently lift the inner liner 6 with the other hand to vertically pull out the fixing ring 13 located in the middle of the inner liner 6 from the slot 16 at the top of the outer shell 1, thereby releasing the insertion and positioning.

[0043] In maintenance scenarios, if the light-emitting components or circuit components inside the interlayer malfunction, there is no need to disassemble the entire cup body. Only the inner layer 6 needs to be removed to quickly locate the problematic component, greatly reducing the difficulty and time cost of maintenance.

[0044] Working Principle: During use, the user connects the power supply by pressing the switch 5 at the bottom of the outer shell 1. The power from the built-in battery is transmitted through the circuit to the controller 12 located at the bottom of the outer shell 1. As the core control unit, the controller 12 sends electrical signals to the light source 9 and the sound component according to the preset program or user operation command. On one hand, the controller 12 drives the light source 9 located at the bottom of the outer shell 1 to emit light. The light is transmitted through multiple light guide pillars 10 by total internal reflection to the acrylic light guide plate 11 at the top. The acrylic light guide plate 11 evenly distributes the light and projects it out through the hollow pattern 2 of the outer shell 1, forming a specific light and shadow effect. At the same time, the light-shielding aluminum foil 8 wrapped around the outer wall of the acrylic light guide plate 11 effectively prevents light leakage and ensures the presentation of the light effect. On the other hand, the controller 12 synchronously controls the sound component to emit corresponding sound effects, realizing sound and light linkage.

[0045] When the inner tube 6 or the light-emitting components and circuit components in the interlayer need maintenance, since the outer shell 1 and the inner tube 6 are designed to be detachable, the user first unscrews the cup cap 3, which is threadedly connected to the inner tube 6. Then, holding the outer shell 1 with one hand, the user gently lifts the inner tube 6 with the other hand and vertically pulls the retaining ring 13 in the middle of the inner tube 6 out of the slot 16 at the top of the outer shell 1. This releases the connection between the two, allowing the inner tube 6 to be removed from the outer shell 1. At this point, the user can directly clean the inner tube 6 or quickly locate and inspect components such as the light source 9, light guide column 10, and controller 12 in the interlayer.

[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.
