Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cup lid technology, to a side-press cup lid, and particularly to a side-press one-button opening and closing cup lid and cup. Background Technology

[0002] As a common accessory for sealing cups, most cup lids are connected to or separated from the cup body by means of threaded connection. To facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the cup lid and the cup body, some cup lids are designed to be opened with a single press.

[0003] For example, the patent with authorization announcement number CN221711635U provides a snap-on cup lid and its cup, which includes a main lid body, a cylindrical outer shell on the periphery of the main lid body, a top cover on the top of the main lid body, a button in the center hole of the top cover, the lower part of the button is in the shape of an inverted frustum, and several inverted buckles are spaced apart on the outer periphery of the lower part of the button. The inverted buckles fit against the inclined surface of the lower part of the button, and the inverted buckles are provided with a latch that can fasten the cup body. By pressing down the button, the latch on the inverted buckles can be moved to release the cup body.

[0004] In this patent, when the cup lid is opened by pressing the button, due to the structural and layout limitations of the button box and other accessories, the downward travel of the button is necessary when the cup lid is unlocked from the cup body. This means that the height of the entire cup lid must be able to accommodate the movement space of the button and other accessories during the downward operation, resulting in a relatively high overall height of the cup lid.

[0005] The height of the cup lid is closely related to the height of some related accessories, such as the main lid body and outer shell in this patent. An increase in the height of the cup lid means that the space for these accessories in the height direction also increases accordingly, and the amount of raw materials required to produce each cup lid will also increase accordingly. This directly leads to an increase in material costs, and this increase in costs will be further amplified during mass production. Utility Model Content

[0031] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0033] This embodiment mainly describes a side-pressure one-button opening and closing cup lid and cup, which reduces the production cost of the cup lid by ignoring the impact of the pressing stroke on the lid height. The details are as follows: Example

[0034] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the cup lid and cup are opened and closed by a single press, including a cup body 1 and a cup lid 001 threadedly connected to the cup body 1. The cup lid 001 includes an outer shell 2, an inner shell 3 fastened in the outer shell 2, two fasteners 4 that slide horizontally in the inner shell 3 and can be partially exposed, a drive member 5 that can slide under pressure and drive the fasteners 4 to retract into the inner shell 3, and a threaded connector 6 that is threadedly connected to the cup body 1 and can be fastened with the fasteners 4. A locking spring 7 that elastically supports the fasteners 4 is installed in the inner shell 3. The locking spring 7 is designed to ensure that the fasteners 4 and the drive member 5 are always in inclined contact.

[0035] The driving component 5 is provided with a sloping groove 5b1, and the fastening component 4 is provided with a guide block 4a that is inserted into the sloping groove 5b1. The inner shell 3 has a fastening outlet 3a on its side wall, and the fastening component 4 is provided with a fastening part 4b located in the fastening outlet 3a. When the locking spring 7 elastically acts on the fastening component 4, the sloping groove 5b1 of the driving component 5 and the guide block 4a of the fastening component 4 are in contact with each other, and the fastening part 4b of the fastening component 4 extends out of the fastening outlet 3a.

[0036] The threaded connector 6 has an inner flange 6a, the cup body 1 has a sealing slope 1a, and the inner shell 3 is equipped with a sealing ring 8. The threaded connector 6 is threadedly fixed to the cup body 1. The fastening part 4b of the fastener 4 is located below the inner flange 6a, and the sealing ring 8 is attached to the sealing slope 1a, so as to realize the detachable sealing of the cup lid 001 to the cup body 1.

[0037] The inner shell 3 is provided with a sliding plane 3b that slides and fits with the fastener 4, and a sliding plane 3c that slides and fits with the drive member 5. The sliding plane 3b and the sliding plane 3c are parallel and horizontally arranged. The outer shell 2 is provided with a movable opening 2a. The drive member 5 is provided with a pressing part 5a1 located in the movable opening 2a and able to expose the outer shell 2. Preferably, the sliding plane 3b and the sliding plane 3c can also be arranged on the same plane.

[0038] Preferably, the two inclined grooves 5b1 on the driving member 5 or the guide blocks 4a on the two fasteners 4 are in a figure-eight structure, and the sidewalls on the two inclined grooves 5b1 or the two guide blocks 4a are obliquely arranged with a wider distance and a narrower distance compared to the movable opening 2a.

[0039] In this application, by having the fastener 4 and the drive member 5 attached to each other on inclined surfaces and sliding on horizontally parallel or coplanar planes, the drive member 5 can be retracted when it is pressed horizontally from the side of the outer shell 2, thus unlocking the cup lid 001. Structurally, the influence of the travel of the pressing member 5a when it is pressed and slidable on the height of the cup lid 001 can be ignored, which can effectively reduce the height of the cup lid 001, that is, effectively reduce the height of accessories such as the inner shell 3, reduce the cost of accessories such as the inner shell 3, and thus reduce the production cost of the cup lid 001.

[0040] The cup lid 001 can be detached from the cup body 1 entirely through its threaded structure, or it can be detached with one click except for the threaded connector 6 through the pressing action of the drive component 5, effectively improving the multi-functional disassembly and applicability of the cup lid 001.

[0041] like Figure 3-7 As shown, the driving component 5 includes a pressing component 5a and an actuating component 5b. The actuating component 5b is disposed in the inner shell 3 and slides against the sliding plane 3c. The actuating component 5b limits the connection of the inner shell 3 and exposes the movable opening 2a. The inclined groove 5b1 of the guide block 4a of the inclined surface actuating fastener 4 is opened on the actuating component 5b, and the pressing part 5a1 is disposed on the pressing component 5a.

[0042] To prevent the actuating member 5b from detaching from the inner shell 3 and the outer shell 2, the inner shell 3 is provided with two stop portions 3d. The pressing member 5a is provided with a hook 5a2 that cooperates with the stop portions 3d. The hook 5a2 is located in the inner shell 3 and cooperates with the stop portions 3d, which can restrict the pressing member 5a from detaching from the inner shell 3 and the outer shell 2. At the same time, to prevent the pressing member 5a from completely entering the inner shell 3 under pressure, the size of the pressing portion 5a1 on the pressing member 5a is larger than the size of the stop portions 3d.

[0043] To ensure the stability of the pressing member 5a when it is pressed and pushes the actuating member 5b to slide, the pressing member 5a is provided with a limiting cavity 5a3, the actuating member 5b is provided with a plug 5b2 inserted into the limiting cavity 5a3, and the inner shell 3 is also provided with a limiting rib 3e to limit the sliding direction of the actuating member 5b. Preferably, the hook 5a2 is located on the outer wall of the limiting cavity 5a3, and the limiting rib 3e is provided on the sliding plane 3c.

[0044] like Figure 3-7 As shown, the inner shell 3 is provided with a limiting post 3f, and an air hole 3g is opened on the limiting post 3f. The air hole 3g is arranged vertically. A valve rod 9 is slidably installed in the air hole 3g. An air-blocking spring 10 is installed between the valve rod 9 and the inner shell 3, and a sealing element 11 is installed on the valve rod 9. The air-blocking spring 10 has an upward elastic potential energy on the valve rod 9, so that the sealing element 11 fits against the lower end face of the inner shell 3 and blocks the air hole 3g. Preferably, the locking spring 7 of the elastic fastener 4 is located between the limiting post 3f and the fastener 4.

[0045] In this embodiment, the actuating member 5b is provided with a guide slope 5b3, and the valve rod 9 is provided with an actuating slope 9a that is in contact with the guide slope 5b3. The setting of the air-blocking spring 10 can ensure that the guide slope 5b3 and the actuating slope 9a are always in contact. The guide slope 5b3 and the actuating slope 9a are set at an angle that is higher in the far direction and lower in the near direction relative to the movable hole.

[0046] When the pressing part 5a is pressed, the sliding part 5b driven by the pressing part 5a is in contact with the guide inclined surface 5b3 through the action inclined surface 9a, which can make the air valve rod 9 press down and make the sealing part 11 move away from the lower end face of the inner shell 3, so that the air hole 3g is open, realizing the release of air pressure in the cup body 1 when the lid is opened with one button.

[0047] like Figure 2-5 As shown, a handle 12 is rotatably mounted on the outer shell 2. The handle 12 is designed to facilitate the lifting and placing of the cup. The outer shell 2 is also provided with a recessed storage groove 2b. The handle 12 can rotate into the storage groove 2b, so that when the handle 12 is stored, the outer shell 2 is kept intact.

[0048] In this embodiment, the storage groove 2b is arranged in a ring shape, and the storage groove 2b has an opening on the top and a side opening. A protrusion 2c is formed in the center of the storage groove 2b. When the handle 12 is stored, the handle 12 wraps around the outer ring of the side wall of the protrusion 2c and fits the bottom of the storage groove 2b. Preferably, the handle 12 and the side wall of the protrusion 2c are limited by damping friction or a buckle structure.

[0049] To facilitate the rotation of the handle 12 away from the outer casing 2, a recessed notch 2d is provided at the connection between the bottom of the storage groove 2b and the side wall of the outer casing 2, so that the handle 12 can be pried from the notch 2d and rotated away from the protrusion 2c. Example

[0050] Compared with the embodiment, the difference in structure is that the threaded connector 6 is not provided, and the cup body 1 is directly provided with a snap-fit ​​groove, and the snap-fit ​​part 4b can be inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove for snap-fit.

[0051] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship that the utility model product is usually placed in during use.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0052] The above provides a detailed description of the side-pressure one-button opening and closing cup lid and cup provided by this utility model. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The above description of the embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand this utility model and its core ideas. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
