Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities technology, and in particular to a lid and a teapot. Background Technology
[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, more and more stainless steel containers are being produced. The lids used with these containers are also becoming increasingly diverse. Lids are generally used to seal and prevent impurities from entering the container. Some existing lids are formed by bending stainless steel and glass bodies, making them less prone to damage, allowing for easy observation of the container's interior, and saving on manufacturing costs.
[0003] However, because stainless steel lids require a bending process to hold the glass lid in place, the bent and clamped part of the stainless steel cannot be too far from the glass lid. However, some existing containers are still quite thick, which means that when the lid is placed on top, the surrounding protruding clips cannot provide a good fixation and seal. As a result, stainless steel lids are suitable for a limited range of containers and cannot be widely adopted. Utility Model Content

[0006] Furthermore, the sidewall portion includes an elastic portion that tilts and converges towards the center closer to the upper limit portion, and a first rolled edge portion that bends inward at one end away from the upper limit portion to clamp the support member.
[0007] Furthermore, the support member includes a support portion and a pressing portion, wherein the pressing portion is disposed at one end of the support portion near the upper limit position portion, and the closer it is to the upper limit position portion, the more it tilts and converges towards the center; the support portion is in contact with the side wall portion.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper limit portion includes a lid edge that is bent out to be larger than the diameter of the spout, and a blocking portion that extends obliquely from the lid edge toward the center, wherein the end of the blocking portion near the center is bent inward to form a second rolled edge portion.
[0009] Furthermore, the lid also includes a protrusion on the side wall portion, and a limiting groove that mates with the spout is formed between the protrusion and the lid edge.
[0010] Furthermore, a plurality of the protrusions are spaced apart on the sidewall portion; or the protrusions are arranged in a ring on the sidewall portion.
[0011] Furthermore, the upper limit part, the side wall part, and the support member are integrally bent into shape.
[0012] Furthermore, the tilt angle of the elastic part is set to 1°-5°; and / or the height of the side wall part is set to 10mm-15mm; and / or the width of the blocking part is set to 6mm-9mm; and / or the cover is made of a transparent structure; and / or the cover or the upper limit part is provided with mounting holes that mate with the grip.

[0029] In the following description, specific details such as particular system structures and techniques are set forth for illustrative purposes and not for limitation, in order to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention can be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other instances, detailed descriptions of well-known systems, apparatuses, circuits, and methods are omitted so as not to obscure the description of the present invention with unnecessary detail.
[0030] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A cover according to the first embodiment of this utility model includes: a cover body 1, a fixing member 2, and a support member 4 that cooperates with the fixing member 2 to fix the cover body 1. The fixing member 2 includes an upper limit part 21 and a side wall part 22 extending downward around the upper limit part 21. A limiting cavity 5 is provided between the upper limit part 21 and the support member 4. The lower end of the support member 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the side wall part 22. The upper end of the support member 4 cooperates with the upper limit part 21 to press and fix the cover body 1 in the limiting cavity 5.
[0031] This application uses a support member 4 added between the cover 1 and the fixing member 2 to press and fix the cover 1 in the limiting cavity 5. During installation, the upper limit portion 21 and the side wall portion 22 of the fixing member 2 are first bent out. Then, the cover 1 is placed in the space surrounded by the side wall portion 22, contacting the lower part of the upper limit portion 21. Next, the support member 4 is placed in the space surrounded by the side wall portion 22, and then inserted into the space so that the upper end of the support member 4 contacts the lower part of the cover 1. Finally, the lower end of the support member 4 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the side wall portion 22. The upper end of the support member 4, in cooperation with the upper limit portion 21, presses and fixes the cover 1 in the limiting cavity 5. The process is relatively simple and convenient. The height of the support member 4 is proportional to the height of the side wall portion 22. Even when manufacturing taller lids, only the height of the support member 4 and the side wall portion 22 needs to be increased; there's no need to increase the thickness of the side wall portion 22's bend. This results in a more aesthetically pleasing overall appearance and allows for a thinner bend at the bottom of the lid, saving space. Furthermore, increasing the height of the side wall portion 22 by adding the support member 4 provides more space for the protruding latch, enabling the lid to fit a wider range of containers with thicker openings. This improves the seal and stability between the lid and the container, expanding its applicability.
[0032] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the sidewall portion 22 includes an elastic portion 221 that tilts and converges towards the center closer to the upper limit portion 21, and a first rolled edge portion 222 that bends inward at the end away from the upper limit portion 21 to form the clamping support 4.
[0033] This application utilizes an elastic portion 221 in the side wall portion 22, which is inclined and converges towards the center closer to the upper limit portion 21. The bottom end of the elastic portion 221 is larger than the top end, and the whole is truncated cone-shaped. With the bottom being wider and the top narrower, when the lid is installed on the container, the container opening will squeeze the elastic portion 221, causing its side to contract inward. After passing the container opening, the elastic portion 221's own elasticity will expand outward to seal the container opening, so that the lid is fixed at the container opening by the elasticity of the elastic portion 221. This increases the firmness and sealing between the lid and the container, making it suitable for more usage environments, expanding the scope of application, and adapting to containers of different sizes.
[0034] This application also includes a first rolled edge portion 222, formed by bending one end away from the upper limit portion 21 inward to clamp the support member 4. The first rolled edge portion 222 clamps one end of the support member 4, which facilitates manufacturing, saves manufacturing costs, and makes it easier to install the support member 4 and the side wall portion 22 together, making the operation more convenient and labor-saving, and improving installation efficiency.
[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the support member 4 includes a support portion 41 and a pressing portion 42. The pressing portion 42 is disposed at one end of the support portion 41 near the upper limit portion 21. The closer it is to the upper limit portion 21, the more it tilts and converges towards the center. The support portion 41 is in contact with the side wall portion 22.
[0036] This application uses a pressing part 42 located at one end of the support part 41 near the upper limit part 21, which tilts and converges towards the center as it gets closer to the upper limit part 21. This tilting and converging of the pressing part 42 towards the center increases the area supporting the cover 1 and provides a certain amount of elasticity, allowing the cover 1 to be more securely and stably installed in the limiting cavity 5. The elasticity provided to the pressing part 42 also provides a certain amount of cushioning force when the cover falls, reducing damage to the cover 1 and extending its service life.
[0037] By having the support part 41 contact the inner wall of the side wall part 22, this application can increase the contact area between the support part 41 and the side wall part 22, improve the stability and firmness of the support part 4 after installation, provide stable compressive force for the cover 1, and extend the service life of the cover.
[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the upper limit portion 21 includes a lid edge 211 that is bent out to be larger than the diameter of the spout, and a blocking portion 212 that extends obliquely from the lid edge 211 toward the center, the end of the blocking portion 212 near the center being bent inward to form a second rolled edge portion 213.
[0039] This application includes an upper limit portion 21 comprising a rim 211 bent out to a diameter larger than the mouth of the container, and a blocking portion 212 extending obliquely from the rim 211 towards the center. The rim 211, larger than the mouth diameter, prevents impurities from entering the container and improves the fit between the lid and the container, making operation more convenient and effortless, and enhancing the stability and firmness of the lid after it is fastened. The blocking portion 212, extending obliquely from the rim 211 towards the center, increases the blocking area between the upper limit portion 21 and the lid body 1, allowing for assembly with lid bodies 1 of different sizes, thus expanding its applicability. Furthermore, the blocking portion 212, extending obliquely from the rim 211 towards the center, possesses a certain degree of elasticity, enabling it to generate a greater compressive force with the pressing portion 42, further improving the stability and firmness of the lid body 1 after assembly.
[0040] This application incorporates a second rolled edge 213 formed by bending the end of the blocking portion 212 near its center inward. The second rolled edge 213 contacts the cover body 1. This reduces friction between the end of the blocking portion 212 and the cover body 1, further extending the service life of the cover body 1. It also increases the blocking strength against the cover body 1, improving overall stability and robustness. Furthermore, it enhances the sealing performance between the blocking portion 212 and the cover body 1, thereby improving the overall sealing performance of the cover.
[0041] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the lid also includes a protrusion 6 provided on the side wall portion 22, and a limiting groove 7 that mates with the spout is formed between the protrusion 6 and the lid edge 211.
[0042] This application utilizes a protrusion 6 on the side wall portion 22, which forms a limiting groove 7 between the protrusion 6 and the lid edge 211 to mate with the spout. After passing the spout, the protrusion 6 is located at the lower end of the spout, allowing the spout to fall into the limiting groove 7, further improving the fit between the lid and the container, making the lid fit more securely, and also improving the adaptability between the lid and the spout, thus maintaining good sealing inside the container.
[0043] The protrusion 6 is provided on the elastic part 221 of the side wall 22. Through the outward expansion elasticity of the elastic part 221, the fit between the protrusion 6 and the spout can be further improved, making the protrusion 6 and the inside of the spout more tightly contacted, and further improving the sealing performance of the lid.
[0044] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, a plurality of protrusions 6 are spaced apart on the sidewall portion 22. Alternatively, the protrusions 6 are arranged in a ring on the sidewall portion 22.
[0045] This application utilizes multiple protrusions 6 spaced apart on the side wall portion 22, making manufacturing more convenient and cost-effective, and adaptable to different sizes of spouts. The ring-shaped arrangement of the protrusions 6 on the side wall portion 22 increases the contact area with the inside of the spout, further improving the seal and ensuring a tighter and more secure connection between the lid and the container. Different types of protrusions 6 can be selected depending on the container being used, thus expanding the applicability.
[0046] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the upper limit portion 21, the side wall portion 22, and the support member 4 are integrally bent into shape.
[0047] This application utilizes an upper limit portion 21, a side wall portion 22, and a support member 4, formed by integral bending. During bending, the upper limit portion 21 and the side wall portion 22 are first bent out. Then, the cover 1 is placed into the space surrounded by the side wall portion 22. The side wall portion 22 is then bent to create the support member 4. By controlling the height of the side wall portion 22 and the support member 4, the overall height of the cover is controlled, making manufacturing simpler and more convenient, resulting in a tighter connection between components, extending the service life, and reducing bacterial growth. The height of the support member 4 is adjusted in real-time by changing the thickness of the cover 1, reducing material waste and saving manufacturing costs.
[0048] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the tilt angle of the elastic portion 221 is set to a range of 1°-5°. And / or the height of the sidewall portion 22 is set to a range of 10mm-15mm. And / or the width of the blocking portion 212 is set to a range of 6mm-9mm. And / or the cover 1 is made of a transparent structure. And / or the cover 1 or the upper limit portion 21 is provided with mounting holes 11 that mate with the grip.
[0049] This application sets the tilt angle of the elastic part 221 to a range of 1°-5°. With a 1° tilt, the elastic part 221 requires only minor deformation to fit into the spout, making it easier and less strenuous to install the lid. This also results in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance with minimal deformation and a more reliable structure. A 5° tilt creates a stable frustum-shaped structure that is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, enhancing the elasticity of the elastic part 221 and improving the fit with the spout. This results in a tighter and more secure seal. The tilt angle of the elastic part 221 can be selected according to actual needs.
[0050] This application sets the height of the side wall portion 22 to a range of 10mm-15mm. A side wall portion 22 with a height of 10mm increases its length extending into the spout, providing sufficient space for the protrusion 6 to fit snugly against the spout, reducing gaps and improving the seal and firmness after fitting. A side wall portion 22 with a height of 15mm reduces contact between the side wall portion 22 and the liquid inside the container, thus reducing contamination of the internal liquid. It also reduces the amount of liquid carried out when the lid is removed, thus protecting the surrounding environment and reducing liquid waste, making it more economical and environmentally friendly during use. The height of the side wall portion 22 can be selected according to actual needs.
[0051] This application sets the width of the blocking part 212 to a range of 6mm-9mm. A 6mm wide blocking part 212 can limit the position of the cover 1 while reducing the area covered, thus exposing more of the observation area and allowing the user to clearly observe the position and shape changes of the liquid inside the container, enabling timely response. A 9mm wide blocking part 212 increases the limiting area of the cover 1, making it suitable for limiting and fixing thicker covers 1, improving stability and sealing during use, and expanding its applicability. The width of the blocking part 212 can be selected according to actual needs.
[0052] This application utilizes a transparent structure for the lid 1, allowing observation of the container's interior even after the lid is secured to the spout, facilitating timely opening and operation, and enhancing the overall aesthetics. The lid 1 can be made of glass or plastic, simplifying manufacturing and reducing costs.
[0053] This application provides a mounting hole 11 on the cover 1 or the upper limit part 21 to mate with the handle. The mounting hole 11 facilitates the installation of the handle on the cover. During installation, only a part of the handle needs to pass through the mounting hole 11. Then, the part that has passed through is fixed to one side of the mounting hole 11 by bolts or clips, so that the handle and the cover remain relatively stationary, making it easier to pick up the cover and making the operation more effortless and convenient.
[0054] Please see Figures 3 to 6 In some embodiments, this application also provides a teapot, including the lid described above, and a body 8 that cooperates with the lid. The body 8 includes a main body 81 and a constriction portion 82, with the constriction portion 82 disposed at the spout of the main body 81.
[0055] This application relates to a lid and a pot body 8 that mates with the lid. The pot body 8 includes a main body 81 and a contracting part 82, which is located at the spout of the main body 81. The contracting part 82 has a certain elasticity and can expand outwards. When the lid is fastened onto the pot body 8, the first rolled edge 222 of the lid passes through the contracting part 82, expanding it outwards. Then, the elastic part 221 is inserted into the contracting part 82. Utilizing the outward elasticity of the elastic part 221 and the inward elasticity of the contracting part 82, the lid and pot body 8 fit more tightly, improving sealing and stability, and offering better adaptability. This allows it to be used with pot bodies 8 of different sizes, expanding its applicability.
[0056] Please see Figures 3 to 6In some embodiments, the pot body 8 further includes: a handle 83 and a spout 84, both of which are connected to the main body 81, with the handle 83 communicating with the interior of the main body 81; and / or a constriction portion 82 formed by rolling the edge of the pot opening of the main body 81 inward.
[0057] This application connects the handle 83 and the spout 84 to the main body 81. The handle 83 is connected to the interior of the main body 81. The handle 83 makes it easier to move the kettle body 8, making operation more effortless. The spout 84 facilitates pouring out the liquid inside and prevents leakage during pouring, thus playing a certain role in protecting the surrounding environment.
[0058] This application utilizes a shrinkage portion 82 formed by rolling the edge inward from the spout of the main body 81, which facilitates manufacturing and saves production costs. The rolled edge of the shrinkage portion 82 also reduces wear on the lid, extending its service life. This ensures the lid maintains a tight seal with the spout of the main body 81 for a longer period.
