Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of tea storage containers, specifically a ceramic jar that is convenient for storing tea. Background Technology

[0002] As a beverage ingredient that requires a high level of storage environment, tea is highly susceptible to the effects of factors such as oxygen, humidity, and light. Therefore, ceramic jars, with their advantages of good light protection and moderate air permeability, have become a common container for storing tea in homes and tea companies.

[0003] Meanwhile, a purple clay jar for storing tea, with Chinese patent application number 202020571978.4, has a receiving cavity set in the inner wall of the jar. The receiving cavity is equipped with an MCU, a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor. The sensing parts of the humidity sensor and the temperature sensor directly contact the tea stored in the jar, thereby accurately obtaining the temperature and humidity information of the tea. The temperature and humidity information is then transmitted to the pointer-type temperature and humidity dial on the lid through the analog-to-digital conversion module of the MCU via wires, a first metal contact, and a second metal contact.

[0004] The aforementioned type of purple clay jar for storing tea relies solely on the gap between the convex edge of the lid and the inner wall of the jar for sealing, without a multi-layered sealing structure. There are obvious gaps at the jar opening, allowing outside air, moisture, and odors to easily enter the jar. This makes it impossible to inhibit the oxidation and mold growth of the tea. Temperature and humidity monitoring can only be passively observed and cannot actively improve the storage environment. In addition, the jar has a hollow, one-piece structure, requiring the user to reach into the bottom of the jar to retrieve tea when the amount of tea is small, which can easily cause tea to spill and contaminate hands, making it inconvenient to retrieve tea.

[0005] Therefore, a ceramic jar that facilitates the storage of tea is proposed to address the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, this utility model provides a ceramic jar for easy tea storage. It features a double-layer sealing structure and active air extraction to achieve long-term tea preservation, and a liftable jar to solve the problem of inconvenient tea removal from the bottom of the jar, thus improving the practicality and stability of tea storage.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a ceramic jar for convenient tea storage, comprising a ceramic jar body and a sealed lid. One side of the ceramic jar body has an integrally formed arc-shaped handle, and the other side of the ceramic jar body has a protective base. A miniature air pump is installed inside the protective base. One end of the miniature air pump is connected to an extraction pipe, and one end of the extraction pipe is connected to the outer wall of the ceramic jar body. A one-way valve is provided on the ceramic jar body at a position corresponding to the extraction pipe. The other end of the miniature air pump is connected to an exhaust pipe, which extends to the protective base. On the outside, a moisture-proof receiving groove is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the ceramic jar. A lifting tank is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the ceramic jar. The sealing jar cover is installed on the top of the ceramic jar. An embedded block is provided at the bottom of the sealing jar cover. An opening matching the shape of the embedded block is provided at the center of the top of the ceramic jar, and a frosted matte surface is provided at the opening. An annular ridge is provided on the outside of the embedded block. A first sealing ring is provided at the annular ridge. An annular block is provided at the bottom edge of the sealing jar cover. A second sealing ring is fitted on the outside of the annular block.

[0008] Preferably, the side of the one-way valve facing the extraction pipe is the extraction port, and the one-way valve is located at the top of the ceramic tank.

[0009] Preferably, the moisture-proof container is located at the center of the bottom of the inner cavity of the ceramic jar, and a moisture-proof agent is provided in the moisture-proof container.

[0010] Preferably, the top of the lifting tank is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the ceramic tank is provided with an internal thread that matches the external thread.

[0011] Preferably, a pushing block is fixed to the top of the lifting tank, and micro-ventilation holes are evenly distributed at the bottom of the lifting tank.

[0012] Preferably, the top edge of the ceramic jar is provided with an annular groove that matches the annular block, and the annular block is fitted into the annular groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. The sealing lid of this utility model improves the sealing effect on the ceramic jar by fitting the embedded block with the frosted opening and the annular block with the annular groove. At the same time, the micro air pump can quickly extract air from the jar to create a low-oxygen, slightly negative pressure environment, which inhibits the oxidation rate of nutrients such as tea polyphenols and amino acids in tea, and facilitates the long-term storage of tea.

[0015] 2. This utility model features a lifting hopper. When the amount of tea leaves in the ceramic jar is low, the lifting hopper is rotated by a pushing block, causing it to rise within the ceramic jar and making it easier to retrieve the remaining tea leaves. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] The following describes an embodiment of this utility model based on its overall structure.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides a ceramic jar for easy storage of tea, including a ceramic jar body 1 and a sealed lid 2. One side of the ceramic jar body 1 has an integrally formed arc-shaped handle 3 for easy handling. The other side of the ceramic jar body 1 is provided with a protective base 4. A miniature air pump 5 is installed inside the cavity of the protective base 4. The miniature air pump 5, installed within the cavity of the protective base 4, does not occupy storage space inside the jar, and provides impact and shock absorption protection through the protective base 4, extending the service life of the miniature air pump 5. One end of the miniature air pump 5 is connected to an air extraction pipe 6, and one end of the air extraction pipe 6 is connected to the outer wall of the ceramic jar body 1. A one-way valve 7 is provided on the ceramic jar body 1 at a position corresponding to the air extraction pipe 6. The other end of the miniature air pump 5 is connected to an exhaust pipe 8, which extends to the outside of the protective base 4. The inner cavity of the ceramic jar 1 is provided with a moisture-proof storage groove 9 at the bottom. A lifting tank 10 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the ceramic jar 1. A sealing jar cover 2 is installed on the top of the ceramic jar 1. An embedded block 11 is provided at the bottom of the sealing jar cover 2. An opening matching the shape of the embedded block 11 is provided at the center of the top of the ceramic jar 1, and a frosted matting surface is provided at the opening. The sealing jar cover 2 is precisely fitted with the top opening of the ceramic jar 1 through the bottom embedded block 11, forming a preliminary seal on the jar. An annular protrusion 12 is provided on the outer side of the embedded block 11. A first sealing ring 13 is provided at the annular protrusion 12. An annular block 14 is provided at the bottom edge of the sealing jar cover 2. A second sealing ring 15 is fitted on the outer side of the annular block 14 to improve the sealing effect on the ceramic jar 1.

[0025] In this embodiment, the side of the one-way valve 7 facing the suction pipe 6 is the suction port. The one-way valve 7 is located at the top of the ceramic tank 1, allowing only the air inside the tank to be discharged outward, preventing outside air from flowing back into the tank through the suction pipe 6 after the suction is completed, and ensuring the stability of the micro-negative pressure environment inside the tank.

[0026] The moisture-proof container 9 is located at the center of the bottom of the inner cavity of the ceramic tank 1. The moisture-proof container 9 contains a desiccant, which is a food-grade silicone desiccant.

[0027] The top of the lifting tank 10 is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the ceramic tank 1 is provided with an internal thread that matches the external thread. By pushing the block 16 to rotate the lifting tank 10, the lifting tank 10 is rotated and raised inside the ceramic tank 1.

[0028] A push block 16 is fixed to the top of the lifting tank 10, and micro-vent holes 17 are evenly arranged at the bottom of the lifting tank 10 to ensure that the moisture inside the tank can flow smoothly to the desiccant area and improve the dehumidification efficiency.

[0029] The top edge of the ceramic jar 1 is provided with an annular groove 18 that matches the annular block 14. The annular block 14 is fitted into the annular groove 18. The precise fitting of the annular block 14 and the annular groove 18 enables the rapid positioning of the sealed jar lid 2. After the annular block 14 is embedded in the annular groove 18, the second sealing ring 15 is squeezed and deformed, forming a gapless fit with the inner wall of the annular groove 18, thus forming an outer sealing barrier.

[0030] The working principle and process of a ceramic jar for easy tea storage: The sealing lid 2 is precisely fitted into the top opening of the ceramic jar body 1 through the bottom embedded block 11. The annular ridge 12 on the outside of the embedded block 11, together with the first sealing ring 13, achieves a tight seal on the inner layer of the jar opening. At the same time, the annular block 14 on the edge of the sealing lid 2 is inserted into the annular groove 18 on the top of the ceramic jar body 1. The second sealing ring 15 on the outside of the annular block 14 further forms an outer sealing barrier, improving the sealing effect on the ceramic jar body 1. When long-term storage of tea is required, the micro air pump 5 in the inner cavity of the protective seat 4 is activated. The micro air pump 5 draws air from the jar body through the air extraction pipe 6. The air in the jar body is discharged through the one-way valve 7, and the extracted air is finally discharged through the exhaust pipe 8. The outer side of the protective base 4 creates a slightly negative pressure, oxygen-deficient environment inside the can, inhibiting the oxidation rate of the tea leaves and slowing down the loss of aroma. A moisture-proof storage groove 9 is set at the center of the bottom of the inner cavity of the ceramic can 1. The moisture-proof storage groove 9 is pre-filled with a desiccant. Utilizing the adsorption properties of the desiccant, it continuously absorbs residual moisture and volatile moisture from the tea leaves, maintaining a dry environment inside the can. The bottom of the lifting can 10 is evenly provided with micro-ventilation holes 17, ensuring that the moisture inside the can flows smoothly to the desiccant area, improving dehumidification efficiency, while preventing the tea leaves from directly contacting the desiccant. When the amount of tea leaves in the ceramic can 1 is low, the lifting can 10 is rotated by pushing the block 16, causing the lifting can 10 to rotate and rise inside the ceramic can facilitating the removal of the remaining tea leaves.
