Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of teaware, and in particular to a teaware in the shape of a plum vase. Background Technology
[0002] Meiping is a traditional Chinese porcelain vase, characterized by its small mouth, short neck, full shoulders, slender base, and ring foot. It gets its name from its small mouth, which is only large enough to hold plum blossoms. Due to its slender shape, it was called "Jingping" during the Song Dynasty and used as a wine vessel. Its elegant and graceful form led to its name "Meiping" after the Ming Dynasty. Modern Meiping vases are mostly used for everyday display and appreciation.
[0003] In addition, existing tea bowls and teacups are placed separately, which causes the structure to be scattered and inconvenient to store during daily use. Furthermore, when packaging teaware after production, the scattered structure requires the customization of larger packaging boxes, which increases costs and takes up more space during transportation.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to represent selected embodiments of this utility model.
[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] Example 1: Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment discloses a plum vase tea set, including a tea bowl 100, a master cup 200, a tea caddy 300a, and a first bowl lid 400a.
[0027] The tea bowl 100 features an open top and a gradually tapering horizontal outline, a unique design that complements the shape of a plum vase and offers practicality. For example, the wide opening at the top helps cool the tea, reducing the risk of scalding the mouth. The smooth, gradually tapering outline also allows for a more fluid pour, minimizing splashing. Furthermore, the tea bowl 100 can be made from traditional tea-making materials such as ceramic or purple clay, which offer excellent heat retention and breathability, better preserving the temperature and aroma of the tea.
[0028] The teacup 100 has a detachable master cup 200 on top. The master cup 200, when inverted, presses down on top of the teacup 100, forming the outer contour of a plum vase. The shape and size of the master cup 200 match the top of the teacup 100, perfectly showcasing the overall shape of the plum vase when inverted. The master cup 200 can be made of the same material as the teacup 100, or other suitable materials such as glass or bone china can be selected according to different needs. A glass master cup 200 has high transparency, clearly displaying the color and luster of the tea; bone china, with its delicate texture and pure white luster, enhances the overall quality of the tea set.
[0029] The tea caddy 300a is detachable and housed within the cavity between the teacup 100 and the host cup 200. Designed for storing tea, the tea caddy 300a is specifically designed to meet the preservation needs of tea. It features a detachable body and lid, facilitating easy access to tea. The body is designed for sealing, effectively preventing moisture and spoilage, thus maintaining the tea's freshness and aroma. The lid and body are connected via threads or snaps to ensure a secure seal. Furthermore, the size of the tea caddy 300a can be customized to meet specific needs, accommodating a sufficient quantity of tea while fitting comfortably within the teacup 100's cavity.
[0030] The first lid 400a is also located in the inner cavity between the teacup 100 and the master cup 200, and is detachable. It can be placed over the top opening of the teacup 100 to assist in the tea brewing process.
[0031] Furthermore, the top of the main body of the first lid 400a is equipped with a grip for easy handling and placement. The grip can be designed with textured surfaces, a curved handle, or similar features to increase friction and prevent slippage. The bottom of the first lid 400a has a ring-shaped protrusion with a serrated structure. This serrated structure serves multiple purposes. Firstly, when the first lid 400a is placed on the teacup 100, the serrated structure increases friction with the rim of the teacup 100, ensuring a more secure fit and preventing slippage during movement or use. Secondly, the gaps created by the serrated structure facilitate pouring out tea.
[0032] Example 2: Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment discloses a plum vase-shaped tea set, including a tea bowl 100, a master cup 200, a large teacup 300b, and a first bowl lid 400a. This embodiment replaces and adjusts the components based on embodiment 1 to meet the usage needs of different users.
[0033] Similar to the tea bowl 100 in Example 1, the tea bowl 100 has an open top and a horizontal outer contour that gradually decreases from top to bottom. This design maintains the basic characteristics of the plum vase shape while providing suitable space for the placement of other components.
[0034] The design and function of the master cup 200 are the same as those in Example 1. It can be detachably inverted and pressed onto the top of the teacup 100, forming the outer contour structure of a plum vase. The choice of its material and shape can be determined according to the user's preferences and actual needs.
[0035] The large teacup 300b is located within the cavity between the tea bowl 100 and the host cup 200, and is detachable. The top of the large teacup 300b is open, allowing it to be used as a standalone tea utensil or for serving tea. Its relatively large size accommodates multiple people drinking tea simultaneously. Materials can include ceramic and glass, depending on the occasion and personal preference. For example, a ceramic teacup 300b creates a warm and traditional atmosphere at family gatherings or meals with friends, while a glass teacup 300b showcases the clarity and beauty of the tea in more casual settings.
[0036] The structure and function of the first bowl lid 400a are the same as those in Embodiment 1. It is located in the inner cavity between the tea bowl 100 and the master cup 200, and can be detachably placed over the top opening of the tea bowl 100. The gripping part on the top of the main body and the annular protrusion and serrated structure on the bottom provide users with a convenient user experience and a good tea-pouring experience.
[0037] Example 3: Based on Example 1, with reference to Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment discloses a plum-vase-shaped tea set, including a tea bowl 100, a master cup 200, a fairness cup 500, small teacups 600, a tea strainer 700, and a second bowl lid 400b. This solution is a more complex tea set combination, integrating multiple functions, and is suitable for users with high requirements for tea set functions.
[0038] The design of Tea Bowl 100 retains the plum vase shape, characterized by an open top and a gradually decreasing horizontal profile from top to bottom. As the core utensil for brewing tea, the choice of material and craftsmanship for Tea Bowl 100 is crucial. A high-quality ceramic Tea Bowl 100 can better bring out the aroma and flavor of tea, while a purple clay Tea Bowl 100 has unique breathability and absorbency, which can make the tea more mellow.
[0039] The master cup 200 can be detachably inverted and pressed onto the top of the teacup 100, forming the outer contour of a plum vase. Its design not only considers the aesthetic appeal of matching the teacup 100, but also emphasizes practicality and comfort. The size and shape of the master cup 200 should be suitable for individual hand-held tea drinking, and the choice of materials should ensure the taste and quality of the tea.
[0040] The fairness cup 500 is located within the cavity between the tea bowl 100 and the host cup 200, and is detachable. The fairness cup 500 is a cylindrical structure with an open top and a spout at the top opening. Its main function is to evenly distribute the tea from the tea bowl 100 into each of the smaller teacups 600 during the brewing process, ensuring a consistent concentration and taste in each cup. The spout design controls the flow rate and direction of the tea, preventing splashing. The fairness cup 500 can be made of glass or ceramic. A glass fairness cup 500 offers high transparency, making it easy to observe the color and concentration of the tea; a ceramic fairness cup 500 has a more traditional feel.
[0041] Three small teacups (600) can be stacked and placed inside the fairness cup (500). This design makes full use of space and is convenient for storage and carrying. The small teacups (600) are small in size, suitable for drinking small amounts of tea, allowing for a better appreciation of the tea's delicate flavor. The material of the small teacups (600) can be the same as or different from the fairness cup (500), depending on the overall design and personal preference. For example, using small teacups (600) of different colors or patterns can increase the interest and visual appeal of the tea set.
[0042] The tea strainer 700 is also located in the inner cavity between the teacup 100 and the host cup 200, and is detachable. The tea strainer 700 includes a filter and a filter holder. The filter holder is placed on the table during use and is used to hold the filter, its main function being to filter tea leaves from the tea. The shape and size of the tea strainer 700 should match the teacup 100, and the material can be ceramic, wood, etc.
[0043] The second lid 400b is located in the cavity between the teacup 100 and the host cup 200, and is detachably placed over the opening at the top of the teacup 100. Its structure is similar to that of the first lid 400a, with a gripping part at the top of the main body, but without an annular protrusion at the bottom.
[0044] This utility model provides various combinations of plum-shaped tea sets to meet the needs of different users. Whether it's a simple tea drinking session for two or a large gathering for tea appreciation, a suitable tea set combination can be found. For example, the tea caddy 300a in Option 1 can conveniently store tea leaves, suitable for personal daily tea drinking; the large teacup 300b in Option 2 can meet the needs of multiple people drinking tea at the same time, suitable for family gatherings or dinner parties with friends; the fairness cup 500, small teacup 600, and tea strainer 700 in Option 3 provide a more professional tea brewing and tasting experience, suitable for users with higher requirements for tea art. This multi-functionality gives the plum-shaped tea set of this utility model a wider market application prospect.
[0045] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
