Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tea tray technology, and in particular to a tea tray with a quick-drying function on the tabletop. Background Technology

[0002] As an important utensil in tea culture for placing tea utensils and receiving tea, the structural design of the tea tray directly affects the user experience and ease of cleaning. Among them, the round tea tray is widely used because of its beautiful shape and the auspicious meaning of completeness.

[0003] The existing technology has the following problems: In actual use, existing round tea trays usually rely solely on drainage holes at the bottom or shallow grooves at the edges for drainage. The surface is mostly flat or curved, and after tea is poured or drained, some water often remains on the surface, especially near the center and corners. This residual water is not only difficult to remove by conventional pouring, but also easily breeds bacteria or leaves watermarks over time, affecting the cleanliness and lifespan of the tea tray. This will cause inconvenience to users and cannot meet their needs for a dry and clean tea tray surface. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a tea tray with a quick-drying function on the countertop in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] The technical solution of this application is implemented as follows:

[0006] This application provides a tea tray with a quick-drying function on the tabletop, including a tea tray body. An embedded structure is provided in the middle of the tabletop of the tea tray body. A quick-drying structure is embedded and fixed in the tea tray body through the embedded structure. The quick-drying structure includes an embedded block. The embedded block is adapted to fit into the embedded structure and is positioned and installed in the middle of the tabletop of the tea tray body through the embedded structure. A rotating shaft is fixedly installed at the top of the embedded block. A connecting plate is radially fixed to the outside of the rotating shaft. The connecting plate is rotatably installed on the top of the embedded block through the rotating shaft. One end of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and the top of the other end is fixedly connected to an installation cylinder. A scraper is detachably installed on the side of the installation cylinder away from the rotating shaft. The bottom of the scraper is in close contact with the tabletop of the tea tray body.

[0007] In one embodiment, the scraper includes a connecting rod, one end of which is detachably mounted on the side of the mounting cylinder away from the rotation axis, and the bottom of the other end is integrally formed with a mounting plate. The bottom of the mounting plate has a mounting groove along its length, and a water-absorbing block is embedded in the mounting groove. The bottom of the water-absorbing block is in close contact with the main surface of the tea tray.

[0008] In one embodiment, an external threaded rod is coaxially fixed at one end of the connecting rod near the mounting cylinder, and an internal threaded hole adapted to the external threaded rod is opened on the side of the mounting cylinder away from the rotation axis. The connecting rod is detachably installed on the side of the mounting cylinder away from the rotation axis through the threaded engagement between the external threaded rod and the internal threaded hole.

[0009] In one embodiment, when the water-absorbing block rotates around the rotation axis with the scraper, its rotation trajectory can cover the entire surface of the tea tray body, and the rotation range of the water-absorbing block does not cover the area where the embedded structure is located.

[0010] In one embodiment, the embedded structure includes a mounting hole that extends through the center of the tea tray body surface. A filter screen is fixedly installed in the center of the mounting hole, and an embedded cylinder is coaxially fixed in the center of the filter screen.

[0011] In one embodiment, the bottom of the embedded groove is provided with a plurality of drainage holes, which are connected to the interior of the tea tray body.

[0012] In one embodiment, a positioning block is integrally formed on the outer side of the embedding block, and a positioning groove adapted to the positioning block is extended from the inner wall of the embedding groove. The embedding block is positioned and installed in the embedding groove by the fitting and engaging of the positioning block and the positioning groove.

[0013] The advantages or beneficial effects of the above technical solutions include at least the following:

[0014] This application discloses a tea tray with a quick-drying function for the countertop, comprising a quick-drying structure. During operation, the rotating shaft in the quick-drying structure drives the connecting plate to rotate, transmitting the rotational motion to the mounting cylinder and scraper. The scraper rotates synchronously around the countertop with the rotating shaft. During rotation, the water-absorbing blocks in the scraper can both scrape away water on the countertop, carrying some water into the interior of the tea tray body and the edge water groove, and absorb residual water through the absorbency of the sponge material. Furthermore, the rotation trajectory of the water-absorbing blocks covers the entire countertop, ensuring that both the center and edge areas are cleaned, guaranteeing comprehensive drying, and preventing water from remaining on the countertop for a long time.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-2 A tea tray with a quick-drying function includes a tea tray body 1, which is used for installation and connection, and serves as a basic load-bearing structure to provide a table surface for placing tea utensils and performing tea ceremony operations.

[0033] An embedded structure 2 is provided in the middle of the table surface of the tea tray body 1. The embedded structure 2 serves to connect and position the tea tray body 1, providing an installation position for the quick-drying structure 3. This allows the quick-drying structure 3 to be stably embedded in the middle of the table surface of the tea tray body 1, and enables the quick-drying structure 3 to rotate around the table surface to scrape off the water.

[0034] The main body 1 of the tea tray is fixed with a quick-drying structure 3 by an embedded structure 2. One end of the quick-drying structure 3 is in contact with the embedded structure 2. With the help of the embedded structure 2, the water on the table can be removed by scraping, thus achieving the function of quick-drying the table.

[0035] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 3 The quick-drying structure 3 includes an embedded block 31, which is made of 304 stainless steel. The embedded block 31 is adapted to fit into the embedded structure 2 and is positioned and installed in the center of the tea tray body 1 through the embedded structure 2. The embedded block 31 is adapted to fit into the embedded structure 2 to achieve positioning and provide stable support for the rotating shaft 32.

[0036] A rotating shaft 32 is fixedly installed on the top of the embedded block 31. The rotating shaft 32 is the core support component that enables the connecting plate 33 and the scraper 35 to rotate. It drives the scraper 35 to rotate around the table surface by rotating its own axial direction. In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 32 is made of 304 stainless steel and is fixedly connected to the top of the embedded block 31 by welding.

[0037] A connecting plate 33 is fixedly welded to the outer radial side of the rotating shaft 32. The connecting plate 33 is rotatably mounted on the top of the embedded block 31 via the rotating shaft 32. One end of the connecting plate 33 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 32. The connecting plate 33 serves to connect the rotating shaft 32 and the mounting cylinder 34, transmitting the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 32 to the mounting cylinder 34 and the scraper 35, so that the scraper 35 can rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft 32, and the scraper 35 can scrape the water off the surface of the tea tray body 1.

[0038] The top of the other end of the connecting plate 33 is fixedly connected to the mounting cylinder 34, which provides an installation position for the scraper 35. The detachable connection facilitates the installation and removal of the scraper 35, allowing users to quickly clean and store the scraper 35.

[0039] A scraper 35 is detachably installed on the side of the mounting cylinder 34 away from the rotating shaft 32. The bottom of the scraper 35 is in close contact with the surface of the tea tray body 1. During rotation, it scrapes away the water on the surface of the tea tray body 1. Some of the water will flow into the water tank inside the tea tray body 1 under the action of the scraper 35, and the other part will be absorbed by the scraper 35, thereby achieving the effect of rapid drying of the surface.

[0040] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 4-5 The scraper 35 includes a connecting rod 351. One end of the connecting rod 351 is detachably installed on the side of the mounting cylinder 34 away from the rotating shaft 32. The connecting rod 351 serves as an intermediate component connecting the scraper 35 and the mounting cylinder 34. The detachable installation method enables a stable connection between the scraper 35 and the mounting cylinder 34, making it convenient for users to clean and store the scraper 35.

[0041] Meanwhile, the connecting rod 351 can transmit the rotational force received by the mounting cylinder 34 to the mounting plate 352 and the water-absorbing block 354, so as to scrape off and absorb the water on the surface of the tea tray body 1 by rotation.

[0042] The other end of the connecting rod 351 has an integrally formed mounting plate 352. The bottom of the mounting plate 352 has a mounting groove 353 along the length direction. The mounting plate 352 provides a mounting base for the water absorption block 354 by opening the mounting groove 353. The integrally formed structure forms a stable whole with the connecting rod 351, ensuring that the water absorption block remains stable during the rotation of 354.

[0043] The mounting slot 353 is used to accommodate and position the absorbent block 354. By fitting and engaging with the absorbent block 354, it can prevent the absorbent block 354 from shifting or falling off when scraping the countertop. Because it is an embedded fit, the absorbent block 354 can be disassembled separately for replacement or cleaning.

[0044] The mounting groove 353 is fitted with a water-absorbing block 354. The bottom of the water-absorbing block 354 is in close contact with the surface of the tea tray body 1. The water-absorbing block 354 is made of a sponge with strong hydrophilicity, good elasticity and moisture resistance. The water-absorbing block 354 is in close contact with the surface of the tea tray body 1. During the rotation process, it can not only scrape the water on the surface and let some of the water flow into the water tank inside the tea tray body 1, but also absorb the remaining water on the surface through its own adsorption capacity, thereby achieving the effect of rapid drying of the surface.

[0045] Among them, the connecting rod 351 is coaxially fixed with an external thread rod 355 at one end near the mounting cylinder 34. The mounting cylinder 34 is provided with an internal thread hole that is adapted to the external thread rod 355 on the side away from the rotating shaft 32. The connecting rod 351 is detachably installed on the side of the mounting cylinder 34 away from the rotating shaft 32 through the thread engagement between the external thread rod 355 and the internal thread hole.

[0046] The connecting rod 351 and the mounting cylinder 34 are connected by threads to form a stable structure to ensure stable transmission of rotational force and to ensure that the water-absorbing block 354 can perform its scraping and water-absorbing functions. The connecting rod 351 can also be quickly disassembled and installed for easy cleaning, replacement and storage.

[0047] When the water-absorbing block 354 rotates around the rotation axis 32 with the scraper 35, its rotation trajectory can cover the entire surface of the tea tray body 1, and the rotation range of the water-absorbing block 354 does not cover the area where the embedded structure 2 is located.

[0048] The rotation trajectory of the water-absorbing block 354 covers the entire countertop, which can completely scrape away the water on the countertop and ensure that the quick-drying effect is thorough. Its rotation range avoids the embedded structure 2, so as to prevent the water-absorbing block 354 from reabsorbing the water that has flowed into the tea tray body 1 through the embedded structure 2 when it covers the area, thereby ensuring a smooth water flow path and improving the drying efficiency of the countertop.

[0049] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 6-8 The embedded structure 2 includes a mounting hole 21, which is opened through the middle of the table surface of the tea tray body 1. The mounting hole 21 is mainly used for installation, providing an assembly position for components such as the filter screen 22 and the embedded cylinder 23, and also serves as a channel for water to flow into the interior of the tea tray body 1.

[0050] A filter screen 22 is fixedly installed in the middle of the mounting hole 21. The filter screen 22 is used to filter impurities in the tea water flowing into the mounting hole 21, so as to prevent impurities from clogging the subsequent drainage path and ensure smooth water discharge.

[0051] An embedded cylinder 23 is coaxially fixed in the middle of the filter screen 22. The embedded cylinder 23 is used for installation and connection. In this embodiment, the filter screen 22 and the embedded cylinder 23 are installed by coaxial welding.

[0052] An embedding groove 24 is provided at the top center of the embedding cylinder 23. The embedding cylinder 23 is adapted to fit the embedding block 31 through the embedding groove 24, and the embedding block 31 is positioned and assembled in the center of the tea tray body 1. The embedding groove 24 is used to position and fix the embedding block 31, so that the water absorption block 354 can rotate around the embedding groove 24 as a reference, thereby cleaning the water on the table.

[0053] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 8 The bottom of the embedded groove 24 is provided with several sets of seepage holes 25. The seepage holes 25 are connected to the inside of the tea tray body 1. When water enters the embedded groove 24, it flows quickly into the inside of the tea tray body 1 through the seepage holes 25, thus preventing water from accumulating in the embedded groove 24.

[0054] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 9-10 The outer side of the embedded block 31 is integrally formed with a positioning block 311, and the inner wall of the embedded groove 24 is correspondingly extended with a positioning groove 241 adapted to the positioning block 311. The embedded block 31 is positioned and installed in the embedded groove 24 by the adaptation and fitting of the positioning block 311 and the positioning groove 241.

[0055] Working principle:

[0056] The main body 1 of the tea tray provides a stable installation position for the quick-drying structure 3 through the embedded structure 2, wherein the fitting and interlocking of the embedded block 31 and the embedded groove 24 ensures that the quick-drying structure 3 is firmly installed in the center of the tabletop.

[0057] During operation, the rotating shaft 32 of the quick-drying structure 3 can drive the connecting plate 33 to rotate. The rotational motion is transmitted to the mounting cylinder 34 and the scraper 35 through the connecting plate 33, so that the scraper 35 rotates synchronously around the table surface with the rotating shaft 32. The water-absorbing block 354 at the bottom of the scraper 35 is in contact with the table surface. During the rotation, some water will be carried into the interior of the tea tray body 1 and the edge water groove by the water-absorbing block 354, while the remaining water will be absorbed by the sponge material water-absorbing block 354, so as to achieve rapid drying of the tea tray table surface.

[0058] Furthermore, the rotation trajectory of the absorbent block 354 covers the entire countertop, thus ensuring thorough cleaning while avoiding the area of ​​the embedded structure 2 to prevent reabsorption of the drained water.

[0059] The mounting hole 21 in the embedded structure 2 serves as a water inflow channel, the filter screen 22 filters impurities to prevent clogging, and the seepage hole 25 at the bottom of the embedded groove 24 quickly drains the water entering the groove into the tea tray body 1 to avoid stagnation.
