[0066] Common liquid containers, such as kettles, consist of a body with a spout at the top. A stopper is housed in the spout, and the stopper is threaded to the inner wall of the spout. Existing push-button stoppers eliminate the need to open the lid or remove the stopper; liquid is poured out by pressing the handle. However, these stoppers require the user to continuously press the handle to pour, which is inconvenient. Furthermore, prolonged pressure on the handle can shorten the lifespan of the stopper.

[0067] This utility model proposes a press-type kettle stopper.

[0068] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of this utility model, the press-type kettle stopper includes a body 1, a pressing element 2, a lower cover 3, and a transmission assembly 4.

[0069] The main body 1 has a water flow channel 11, which has an upper outlet 111 and a lower outlet 112.

[0070] The pressing member 2 is located at the upper end of the body 1 and is rotatably connected to the body 1. The connection point between the pressing member 2 and the body 1 serves as a fulcrum. The pressing member 2 includes a first pressing part 25 and a second pressing part 26 located on both sides of the fulcrum. Specifically, when the first pressing part 25 is pressed down, the second pressing part 26 tilts upward; when the second pressing part 26 is pressed down, the first pressing part 25 returns to its initial state.

[0071] The lower cover 3 is located at the lower end of the body 1. The transmission assembly 4 is located inside the body 1, below the pressing member 2, and includes a fixing structure 41 fixedly connected to the lower cover 3. When the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the transmission assembly 4 drives the lower cover 3 to move away from the lower end of the body 1 to open the lower water outlet 112; when the second pressing part 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the transmission assembly 4 drives the lower cover 3 to move closer to the lower end of the body 1 to close the lower water outlet 112.

[0072] The press-type kettle stopper also includes a thermometer 5, which includes a probe 51 that passes sequentially through the press member 2, the body 1, and the lower cover 3. The press member 2 has a clearance hole 28 through which the probe 51 passes. The clearance hole 28 is elliptical in shape. The thermometer 5 allows for the detection of the water temperature, and the clearance hole 28 avoids the probe 51 during the rotation of the press member 2.

[0073] The pressing element 2 has a first pressing part 25 and a second pressing part 26 located on both sides of the fulcrum. Pressing the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 of the pressing element 2 controls the pressing element 2 to rotate around the fulcrum, thereby driving the transmission component 4. This drives the lower cover 3 to move away from the lower end of the body 1, opening the lower water outlet 112. At this time, the liquid in the kettle can be poured out from the water flow channel 11. It also drives the lower cover 3 to move closer to the lower end of the body 1, closing the lower water outlet 112. Therefore, this utility model allows the user to open the water outlet by pressing one side of the pressing element 2 when water needs to be poured, and close the water outlet by pressing the other side of the pressing element 2 when water does not need to be poured, preventing dust and other foreign objects from entering the kettle. Compared with the prior art, it is easy to operate and does not require continuous pressing of one side of the pressing element 2, avoiding damage to the internal components of the pressing kettle stopper and extending the service life of the pressing kettle stopper.

[0074] The thermometer 5 also includes a display device 52, which is located on the upper side of the pressing member 2 and is connected to the upper end of the probe 51. The display device 52 can display the water temperature and realize the detection of the temperature of the water in the kettle.

[0075] The push-button stopper is used to install on the kettle. The push-button stopper can be directly inserted into the kettle's opening, with its outer circumference abutting against the inner circumference of the opening, thus securing the stopper in place. Alternatively, the push-button stopper may have external threads on its outer side, allowing it to be installed into the kettle's opening via a threaded connection.

[0076] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The body 1 has an inner cavity, and inside the body 1 is a mounting cavity 12. The mounting cavity 12 is located within the inner cavity of the body 1, and its upper side is open. The water flow channel 11 is located outside the mounting cavity 12, and its lower end passes through the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1 to form the lower water outlet 112. The pressing member 2 is rotatably mounted in the inner cavity of the body 1, and at least a portion of the pressing member 2 is located within the inner cavity of the body 1, reducing the volume ratio of the press-type kettle stopper. The cross-sectional size of the inner cavity of the body 1 gradually increases from bottom to top, ensuring sufficient space within the inner cavity of the body 1.

[0077] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pressing member 2 has a clearance groove 21, the body 1 has an ear plate 13, the ear plate 13 is located in the clearance groove 21, the ear plate 13 has a rotating hole 131, and a rotating rod 211 is provided on the groove wall of the clearance groove 21, the rotating rod 211 is located in the rotating hole 131. By providing the rotating hole 131 and the rotating rod 211, the pressing member 2 can be rotated and installed; at the same time, by providing the clearance groove 21, interference between the ear plate 13 and the pressing member 2 is avoided when the pressing member 2 rotates.

[0078] Two ear plates 13 are correspondingly provided on both sides of the body 1, and two clearance grooves 21 and two rotating rods 211 are correspondingly provided. The two rotating rods 211 are coaxial, ensuring the stability of the rotation of the body 1. The ear plates 13 are provided on the inner side wall of the body 1.

[0079] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The pressing member 2 includes an upper pressing member 22 and a lower pressing member 23. Both the upper pressing member 22 and the lower pressing member 23 are recessed downwards, and the upper pressing member 22 is located above the lower pressing member 23. The lower pressing member 23 has a relief groove 21 on its periphery, and the rotating rod 211 is located on the bottom wall of the relief groove 21. The upper pressing member 22 has a blocking part 24 on its periphery, which corresponds to the relief groove 21, thus reducing the exposure of the ear plate 13. By setting the pressing member 2 as the upper pressing member 22 and the lower pressing member 23, the upper pressing member 22 can be installed after the lower pressing member 23 is rotatably installed on the body 1.

[0080] The body 1 extends along a first direction, and the fulcrum includes the rotating rod 211; the rotating rod 211 extends along a second direction, that is, the rotation axis of the pressing member 2 extends along the second direction. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, which can reduce the interference between the pressing member 2 and the inner cavity of the body 1, so as to ensure the rotation range of the pressing member 2.

[0081] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the pressing member 2 includes a first pressing part 25 and a second pressing part 26 located on both sides of the fulcrum, and the upper side of the body 1 includes a first supporting section 14 and a second supporting section 15 located on both sides of the fulcrum; when the first pressing part 25 is pressed, the first pressing part 25 is in contact with the first supporting section 14; when the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the second pressing part 26 is in contact with the second supporting section 15.

[0082] In this way, when the lower outlet 112 of the press-type kettle stopper is kept open or closed, the rotation of the pressing member 2 can be limited by the contact between the first support section 14 and the second support section 15.

[0083] Furthermore, the second pressing part 26 is provided corresponding to the upper water outlet 111. When the lower water outlet 112 is kept closed, the second pressing part 26 adheres to the second supporting section 15 and covers the upper water outlet 111 to reduce dust accumulation on the upper water outlet 111. When the lower water outlet 112 is open, the first pressing part 25 adheres to the first supporting section 14, keeping the upper water outlet 111 open.

[0084] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pressing member 2 further includes a blocking portion 27 formed by the edge of the first pressing portion 25 extending toward the first supporting section 14. By providing the blocking portion 27, when the second pressing portion 26 is pressed down, the blocking portion 27 can abut against the inner wall of the body 1, thereby covering the internal structure of the body 1, which is both aesthetically pleasing and prevents foreign objects from entering the body 1.

[0085] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 In one embodiment of this utility model, the transmission component 4 includes a lifting seat 42, which is located below the pressing member 2. The fixing structure 41 protrudes from the side wall of the lifting seat 42. The pressing member 2 includes a first pressing part 25 and a second pressing part 26 located on both sides of the fulcrum. When the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed down, the first pressing part 25 can press the lifting seat 42 so that the lifting seat 42 moves down, that is, moves downward in the body 1 along the axial direction of the body 1. When the lifting seat 42 moves down, it drives the lower cover 3 to move down, thereby driving the lower cover 3 to move away from the lower end of the body 1.

[0086] In one embodiment of this utility model, in order to guide the lifting of the lifting seat 42, the main body 1 is provided with a mounting cavity 12. The lifting seat 42 and the mounting cavity 12 each have a limiting slider 421 and a sliding groove 121 extending along the axis of the main body 1, with the limiting slider 421 located within the sliding groove 121. Through the cooperation of the sliding groove 121 and the limiting slider 421, the lifting of the lifting seat 42 can be guided.

[0087] Specifically, the main body 1 has a hollow structure, and a guide plate 122 protrudes from the inner bottom wall of the main body 1. The guide plate 122 is arranged around the axis of the main body 1 to form a mounting cavity 12, in which the lifting seat 42 and the limiting slider 421 are located. The guide plate 122 forms the sliding groove 121, and the limiting slider 421 is integrally connected to the lifting seat 42, thereby guiding the lifting seat 42. Two sliding grooves 121 and two sliders are provided on opposite sides of the lifting seat 42 to ensure the stability of the lifting of the lifting seat 42.

[0088] The fixing structure 41 is a protrusion fixed to the periphery of the lifting seat 42. A transmission column 31 protrudes from the upper side of the lower cover 3, with two transmission columns 31 extending vertically. Two first through holes are provided on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1, and the two transmission columns 31 slide through the two first through holes respectively. The upper ends of the transmission columns 31 are connected to the fixing structure 41 by snap-fit ​​or other detachable connection methods. When the lifting seat 42 rises and falls, the transmission columns 31 drive the lower cover 3 to rise or fall synchronously. The presence of two or more transmission columns 31 improves the stability of the connection between the fixing structure 41 and the lower cover 3.

[0089] The lower cover 3 includes an annular seat 32 and an inner sealing ring 33. The inner sealing ring 33 is fixed inside the annular seat 32 by a snap-fit ​​mechanism. An outer sealing ring 16 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the bottom side of the body 1. Both the outer sealing ring 16 and the inner sealing ring 33 are made of flexible material, such as food-grade rubber. The lower outlet 112 is located between the outer sealing ring 16 and the inner sealing ring 33. When the lower cover 3 moves upward, the outer periphery of the annular seat 32 abuts against the outer sealing ring 16, and the inner sealing ring 33 abuts against the bottom side of the body 1, thereby closing the lower outlet 112.

[0090] The two first perforations are located on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1 of the guide plate 122, and the two transmission columns 31 are fixedly connected to the annular seat 32. At the same time, the two transmission columns 31 are located between the outer sealing ring 16 and the inner sealing ring 33, which can prevent water leakage from the first perforations.

[0091] The display device 52 can be an electronic display or a temperature dial. Further, the upper pressing member 22 of the pressing member 2 includes a receiving groove 2b, in which the display device 52 is housed. The receiving groove 2b is recessed on the upper side of the pressing member 2.

[0092] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The thermometer 5 includes a display device 52. At least one of the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2 and the lower sidewall of the display device 52 is provided with a supporting protrusion 7, forming a clearance space 6 between the lower sidewall of the display device 52 and the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2. When the pressing member 2 rotates, the lower sidewall of the display device 52 avoids the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2. The supporting protrusion 7 supports the display device 52, ensuring the clearance space 6. When the pressing member 2 rotates, the upper side of the pressing member 2 can move within the clearance space 6, preventing contact between the pressing member 2 and the display device 52 and ensuring the rotation of the pressing member 2.

[0093] The support protrusion 7 includes two first support protrusions 71, both of which are located on the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2 and within the receiving groove 2b. The two first support protrusions 71 are respectively located on opposite sides of the clearance hole 28, providing support for the display device 52 and creating a clearance space 6 around the periphery of each protrusion 71.

[0094] The support protrusion 7 also includes a second support protrusion 72, which is located in the central area of ​​the lower side of the display device 52. The second support protrusion 72 can support the display device 52, so that a clearance space 6 is formed around the second support protrusion 72.

[0095] The first support protrusion 71 abuts against the second support protrusion 72, further increasing the height of the clearance space 6.

[0096] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The thermometer 5 also includes a display device 52. A receiving groove 2b is formed on the upper side of the pressing member 2. At least a portion of the display device 52 is disposed in the receiving groove 2b. The cross-sectional size of the display device 52 gradually decreases from bottom to top, and the opening size of the receiving groove 2b gradually decreases from bottom to top. When the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the periphery of the display device 52 abuts against the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b.

[0097] When the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the display device 52 can block the area within the receiving groove 2b. By setting the opening size of the receiving groove 2b to gradually decrease from bottom to top, the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b can avoid the peripheral wall of the display device 52 when the pressing member 2 rotates.

[0098] In one embodiment, the horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is circular, and the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is located within the receiving groove 2b. When the pressing member 2 is placed horizontally, the horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b can be elliptical (a circle is an ellipse with equal minor and major radii). The centers of any two horizontal cross-sections of the receiving groove 2b coincide, the minor radii of any two horizontal cross-sections of the receiving groove 2b are equal, the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is not greater than the major radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b, and the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is not greater than the minor radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b.

[0099] The uppermost horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b is the smallest, and the uppermost horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b is circular. The radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is equal to the major radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b, and the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is equal to the minor radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b. When the pressing member 2 is placed horizontally, it is convenient to place the display device 52 into the receiving groove 2b. At the same time, when the pressing member 2 rotates, the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b can avoid the peripheral sidewall of the display device 52.

[0100] The display device 52 includes a first peripheral segment disposed near the first pressing part 25 and a second peripheral segment disposed near the second pressing part 26.

[0101] When the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 is pressed down, the first and second peripheral segments abut against the opposite inner walls of the receiving groove 2b. Since the major radius of the horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b, except for the smallest horizontal cross-section, is larger than the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52, the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b can avoid the display device 52 when the pressing member 2 rotates. At the same time, the display device 52 can block the interior of the receiving groove 2b. When the pressing member 2 rotates, the horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b is designed to provide space in the direction of its major radius to avoid the peripheral wall of the display device 52.

[0102] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6The bottom wall of the inner cavity of the main body 1 is threadedly connected to an installation tube 17. A sealing ring 171 is provided inside the installation tube 17. The probe 51 passes through the sealing ring 171 and the inner sealing ring 33 to prevent water leakage from the probe 51. The probe 51 passes through the installation tube 17, which is located within the installation cavity 12 formed by the guide plate 122. The lifting seat 42 is flexibly mounted on the installation tube 17.

[0103] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 In one embodiment of the present invention, the lifting seat 42 and the pressing member 2 each include a first mounting surface and a second mounting surface; a pressing block 29 is provided on the first mounting surface, and the pressing block 29 and the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 are on the same side; a slot 422 is provided on the second mounting surface.

[0104] When the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed down, the pressing block 29 and the second mounting surface press against each other, causing the lifting seat 42 to move downward in the body 1 along the axial direction of the body 1, driving the lower cover 3 to move away from the lower end of the body 1 until the pressing block 29 is located in the slot 422.

[0105] When the first pressing part 25 is pressed down, the pressing block 29 and the second mounting surface press against each other, causing the lifting seat 42 to move downward in the body 1 along the axial direction of the body 1.

[0106] The pressure block 29 can be located anywhere on the lower side of the pressing member 2, as long as the lowest point of the pressure block 29 is located below the first mounting portion; specifically, the pressure block 29 is located directly below the first pressing portion 25, that is, the pressure block 29 is located within the vertical projection of the first pressing portion 25. Specifically, the first mounting surface is located on the pressing member 2, and the second mounting surface is located on the lifting base 42.

[0107] In one embodiment of this utility model, a slot 422 is provided on the second mounting surface. The pressure block 29 is located in the slot 422 to limit the upward movement of the lifting seat 42, thereby keeping the lower cover 3 open at the lower outlet 112. By providing the slot 422, when the pressure block 29 slides into the slot 422, the lifting seat 42 can move upward a certain distance, realizing the engagement of the slot 422 and the pressure block 29. When the pressing member 2 is stopped, the slot 422 can limit the sliding of the pressure block 29, stopping the movement of the pressure block 29. At the same time, the position of the lifting seat 42 remains in motion, thereby keeping the lower cover 3 at the position of the lower outlet 112.

[0108] The slot 422 is an arc-shaped slot. When it is necessary to close the lower outlet 112, by pressing the second pressing part 26, the pressing block 29 can slide out of the slot 422 and move upward. The lifting seat 42 can move upward under the drive of the transmission component 4 to close the lower outlet 112.

[0109] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 In one embodiment of this utility model, the transmission assembly 4 further includes a transmission member 43; one of the pressing member 2 and the lifting seat 42 includes a third mounting part and the other includes a fourth mounting part; one end of the transmission member 43 is rotatably connected to the third mounting part, and the other end of the transmission member 43 is rotatably connected to the fourth mounting part; when the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the transmission member 43 drives the lower cover 3 to move downward.

[0110] When the first pressing part 25 is pressed, the first pressing part 25 rotates and moves downward, the transmission member 43 rotates, and the length of the transmission member 43 in the vertical direction increases, so that the lower end of the transmission member 43 can push the lifting seat 42 downward.

[0111] Please see Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 The rotation axes at both ends of the transmission member 43 are parallel to the rotation axis of the pressing member 2, and the rotation axes at both ends of the transmission member 43 extend along the second direction. The third mounting part is provided on the pressing member 2, and the fourth mounting part is provided on the lifting seat 42. The distance between the third mounting part and the axis of the body 1 is less than the distance between the fourth mounting part and the axis of the body 1. When the first pressing part 25 is pressed, the transmission member 43 rotates, and the angle between the transmission member 43 and the vertical line gradually decreases, so that the length of the transmission member 43 in the vertical direction increases. At the same time, the height of the connection point at the upper end of the transmission member 43 decreases, further reducing the height of the connection section at the lower end of the transmission member 43, ensuring the downward movement of the lifting seat 42.

[0112] The third mounting portion is a receiving groove on the lower side of the pressing member 2, and the fourth mounting portion protrudes from the upper side of the pressing member 2. The transmission member 43 includes two transmission rods 431 and a connecting rod 432. The two transmission rods 431 are parallel, and the upper ends of both transmission rods 431 are rotatably connected to the third mounting portion. The two transmission rods 431 are located on opposite sides of the third mounting portion. The two ends of both transmission rods 431 are rotatably connected to the fourth mounting portion. The two transmission rods 431 are located on opposite sides of the fourth mounting portion, and the rotation axes of both ends of the transmission rods 431 are parallel to the rotation axis of the pressing member 2. The connecting rod 432 connects the two transmission rods 431.

[0113] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 In one embodiment of this utility model, the transmission assembly 4 includes an elastic telescopic member 44; one of the pressing member 2 and the body 1 includes a first mounting portion and the other includes a second mounting portion; one end of the elastic telescopic member 44 is rotatably connected to the first mounting portion, and the other end of the elastic telescopic member 44 is limited by the second mounting portion; or, one end of the elastic telescopic member 44 is rotatably connected to the first mounting portion, and the other end of the elastic telescopic member 44 is rotatably connected to the second mounting portion; when the first pressing portion 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the elastic telescopic member 44 tilts towards the second pressing portion 26 of the pressing member 2; when the second pressing portion 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the elastic telescopic member 44 tilts towards the first pressing portion 25.

[0114] When the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, and when it tilts towards the second pressing part 26 of the pressing member 2, the elastic telescopic member 44 elastically extends, driving the second pressing part 26 upward to keep the first pressing part 25 in a pressed state. When the second pressing part 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, and when it tilts towards the first pressing part 25, the elastic telescopic member 44 elastically extends, driving the first pressing part 25 upward to keep the second pressing part 26 in a pressed state.

[0115] Furthermore, when the upper end of the elastic telescopic member 44 rotates to the other side of the fulcrum, pressing the first pressing part 25 causes the elastic telescopic member 44 to extend and drive the second pressing part 26 to move upward, thereby accelerating the downward movement of the first pressing part 25. This increases the sound when the first pressing part 25 touches the upper side of the body 1, serving as a prompting sound to remind the user that the lower outlet 112 of the water flow channel 11 remains in the normally open state and there is no need to continuously press the first pressing part 25.

[0116] After the water is poured out, by pressing the second pressing part 26, when the upper end of the elastic telescopic member 44 rotates to the other side of the fulcrum, the elastic telescopic member 44 drives the first pressing part 25 to move upward, thereby accelerating the downward movement of the second pressing part 26. This increases the sound when the second pressing part 26 touches the upper side of the body 1, serving as a prompting sound to remind the user that the lower outlet 112 of the water flow channel 11 remains in a normally closed state and there is no need to continuously press the second pressing part 26.

[0117] The elastic telescopic member 44 includes a positioning rod 441 and an elastic member 442 sleeved on the positioning rod 441; one end of the positioning rod 441 is provided with a limiting part, and the limiting part is movably connected to the first mounting part; wherein, the second mounting part includes a limiting cavity 18, and the end of the positioning rod 441 away from the limiting part is located in the limiting cavity 18.

[0118] The limiting cavity 18 can limit the positioning rod 441, reducing the risk of the positioning rod 441 disengaging from the limiting cavity 18. This ensures the tilting of the elastic telescopic member 44.

[0119] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 The elastic telescopic member 44 includes a positioning rod 441 and an elastic member 442 sleeved on the positioning rod 441; one end of the positioning rod 441 is provided with a limiting part, and the limiting part is movably connected to the first mounting part; the second mounting part includes a mounting protrusion 19, and one end of the elastic member 442 away from the limiting part is sleeved on the mounting protrusion 19.

[0120] By fitting the elastic element 442 onto the mounting protrusion 19, the mounting protrusion 19 can avoid separation from the elastic element 442 when the elastic telescopic element 44 is tilted.

[0121] The mounting protrusion 19 is located inside the limiting cavity 18. The elastic element 442 is a first spring. The first mounting part is provided on the pressing member 2. The second mounting part is provided on the inner wall of the body 1. The second mounting part is located directly below the fulcrum of the holding member. During the rotation path of the holding member, the second mounting part can move to both sides of the fulcrum.

[0122] The elastic element 442 is a first spring sleeved on the positioning rod 441. The end of the positioning rod 441 away from the elastic element 442 protrudes peripherally to abut against the first spring. The first mounting part includes a mounting groove 2a provided on the bottom side of the pressing member. The end of the positioning rod 441 away from the elastic element 442 is located in the mounting groove 2a and is rotatably connected to the pressing member. The rotation axis of the positioning rod 441 is parallel to the rotation axis of the pressing member.

[0123] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the transmission assembly 4 further includes a restoring member 45, which abuts against the lower side of the lifting seat 42; the restoring member 45 provides a restoring force, causing the axis of the body 1 of the lifting seat 42 to move upward within the body 1, thereby driving the lower cover 3 to move toward the lower end of the body 1.

[0124] By applying a restoring force to the lifting seat 42 through the restoring component 45, when the pressure on the lifting seat 42 is upward, the lifting seat 42 can drive the lower cover 3 to move upward.

[0125] The recovery component 45 includes a recovery spring. The lower end of the recovery spring abuts against the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1, and the upper end abuts against the lower side of the lifting seat 42 to apply upward pressure to the lifting seat 42. The recovery spring is sleeved on the mounting tube 17 to ensure that the recovery spring undergoes elastic deformation in the vertical direction.
