Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart cup lids, and more particularly to a smart cup and kettle lid that supports automatic pop-out lids. Background Technology

[0002] With the trend of electrification in consumer goods, and to better cater to children, technicians have incorporated fingerprint recognition technology into insulated cups. Children using this type of cup must first identify themselves via fingerprint before the lid can be opened, preventing accidental use among children and reducing the risk of germ transmission. In existing technologies, to prevent the lid from being opened when closed, a utility model patent with Chinese patent number CN202221893318.3 discloses an intelligent safety lid and insulated cup. This design uses a locking mechanism that slides up and down, restricting engagement with the lower meshing structure based on successful identity verification. Unlocking: When identity matching is successful and the cup is in the engaged state, the lid can be considered to be connected to the thermos via threads. Rotating the lid will disengage the lid and the thermos, allowing for drinking or adding water. When identity matching is not successful and the cup is in the disengaged state, the upper and lower covers of the lid can rotate relative to each other, thus preventing the threads from being turned to open the cup. However, in actual use, it has been found that after a child completes identity verification, the latched lid cannot automatically pop open, which is inconvenient. Therefore, a more reasonable structural solution is urgently needed, in which the lid can automatically pop open and separate after identity verification, making it easier for children to drink from the cup.

[0032] To more clearly illustrate this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will provide a further picture.

[0033] In the following description, specific examples are given to provide a more in-depth understanding of the present invention. It is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0034] It should be understood that when the terms “comprising” and / or “including” are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of the said feature, integral, step, operation, element, or component, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integrals, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations thereof.

[0035] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a smart cup / pot lid that supports automatic lid opening and closing. Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8 The device includes a lid body 1, a pin, and a trigger 3. One end of the lid body 1 has a sealing groove 11 for sealing the opening of the external cup body, and the other end has a receiving cavity. The receiving cavity is provided with a drive module 12 and a main control board 13 that are electrically connected. The surface of the lid body 1 is also provided with a biometric module that is electrically connected to the main control board 13. The pin 2 is placed in the receiving cavity and is driven by the drive module 12 so that the locking end of the pin 2 can extend and retract within the sealing groove 11. The trigger 3 is placed in the area corresponding to the opening at the bottom of the sealing groove 11 and is electrically connected to the main control board 13.

[0036] The above solution will be further explained in the context of a specific application scenario. First, as a cup lid, its main purpose is to connect with the external pot body 5 through the sealing groove 11 to seal the opening of the pot body. In the locked state, when the lid body 1 closes the external opening, the trigger 3 is squeezed by the edge of the cup opening and accumulates elastic potential energy. The elastic potential energy can be achieved by using elastic silicone, springs, and spring sheets in combination with a suitable working space. At the same time, the drive module 12 drives the locking pin 2 to move, so that the locking end of the locking pin 2 extends into the sealing groove 11 and abuts against the external pot body 5, thus achieving a tight fit between the cup lid and the external cup body. The biometric module 15 identifies the user. If the identity is mismatched, the locked state is maintained. If the match is successful, the unlocked state is entered. Specifically, the drive module reverses its operation, the locking end retracts into the lid body 1 to form the unlocked state, and the elastic potential energy of the trigger 3 is released. At the same time as entering the unlocked state, the lid body 1 is popped open.

[0037] As can be seen, when the locking pin 2 is inserted into the sealing groove 11, it forms a locked state, and the trigger 3 accumulates elastic potential energy. After the identity is correctly matched, the locking pin 2 retracts into the interior of the main cover to form an unlocked state, and at the same time, the elastic potential energy of the trigger 3 is released, realizing the automatic opening of the cup and kettle lid, which is more convenient to use.

[0038] In this embodiment, a mounting plate 4 is also included within the accommodating cavity. The mounting plate 4 is located within the accommodating cavity. A mounting seat 41 is formed on the first side of the sealing groove 11 of the mounting plate 4. The mounting seat 41 is used to fix the main control board 13 and the drive module 12. A recess 42 for accommodating the battery is formed on the second side facing the sealing groove 11. The battery is electrically connected to the main control board 13. It is easy to understand that the first and second sides of the mounting plate 4 respectively form the mounting seat 41 and the recess 42 for assembling the core components. Specifically, a compartment for fixing the drive module 12 is formed inside the mounting seat 41. The main control board 13 is ring-shaped and installed on the top of the mounting seat 41. The mounting plate 4 is provided with wiring holes to connect the compartment and the recess 42, enabling wiring.

[0039] In this embodiment, the locking pin 2 includes a linkage ring 21 and at least one movable pin. The linkage ring 21 is sleeved on the mounting base 41 and overlaps the first surface of the mounting plate 4. The linkage ring 21 is provided with a rack and tooth portion 23 that meshes with the transmission gear fixed on the output shaft of the drive module 12. The mounting plate 4 is also provided with an arc-shaped groove 24 arranged in accordance with the number of movable pins. The connecting end of the movable pin can slide in the arc-shaped groove 24. The movable pin 22 is located at two extreme positions of the arc-shaped groove 24 to form a locked state and an unlocked state. It is easy to understand that the linkage ring 2 1. The rotational motion of the drive module 12 is converted into linear motion to realize the extension and retraction of the movable pin, thereby forming a locked state and an unlocked state. In the specific solution, the outer wall of the profile forming the groove 42 is provided with multiple telescopic holes. One end of the movable pin is located in the arc-shaped groove 24, and the other end is bent and extended into the telescopic hole. This end is the locking end. The telescopic hole constitutes the active channel of each movable pin, realizing the extension and retraction of the locking end. The specific transmission sequence is: drive module 12, transmission gear, rack and tooth part 23, linkage ring 21, movable pin.

[0040] In this embodiment, the trigger 3 includes a metal ring 31 fitted with a silicone sleeve 32, and the silicone sleeve 32 has a slot 33 exposing the metal ring 31; it also includes a first metal post 34 and a second metal post 35, one end of the first metal post 34 and the second metal post 35 being electrically connected to the main control board 13, and the other end passing through the mounting plate 4 and extending into the recess 42; it is easy to understand that when the cup lid is connected to the outer pot body 5, the opening squeezes the silicone sleeve 32 and accumulates elastic potential energy, and the metal ring 31 simultaneously abuts against the first metal post 34 and the second metal post 35, so that the preset circuit of the main control board 13 can be turned on to generate an electrical signal to make the drive module 12 work and maintain the locked state. Naturally, the surface of the linkage ring 21 is provided with a clearance hole 25 for the first metal post 34 and the second metal post 35 to pass through, and the cross-section of the clearance hole 25 is arc-shaped, so that the first metal post 34 will not pass through. The second metal post 35 will not interfere with the rotation of the linkage ring 21. After the identity is correctly matched, the locking state is released, the main control board 13 controls the motor to reverse, and the movable pin 22 can retract into the lid body 1, releasing the locking state. The silicone sleeve 32 releases its elastic potential energy, and the lid body 1 pops out. At the same time, the first metal post 34 and the second metal post 35 also release their contact with the metal ring 31. The preset circuit is not conductive, ensuring the overall product's battery life and reasonable opening. When the user needs to close the outer pot body 5, he only needs to press the lid body 1 directly onto the opening of the outer pot body 5, so that the elasticity of the silicone sleeve 32 is overcome and the first metal post 34 and the second metal post 35 contact the metal ring 31. The drive module 12 then works to lock the pot lid. The overall operation is simple and convenient to use, avoiding the installation and matching time of threaded structures.

[0041] In this embodiment, the edge of the linkage ring 21 is also provided with an avoidance notch 26 and an abutment post 27 located at the limit notch; the mounting plate 4 is provided with a limit switch 28 at the position corresponding to the avoidance notch 26; when the linkage ring 21 rotates, the abutment post 27 will contact the limit stop, so that the control arm of the limit switch 28 is pressed to generate an electrical signal, and the main control board 13 responds to the electrical signal to control the drive module to stop working; in order to better use the product, the biometric module is located on the top surface of the cover body 1, and is also provided with a charging contact 14 for charging the battery.

[0042] In this embodiment, the biometric module 15 is one or more of a voice control module, a fingerprint module, a facial recognition module, or an eye recognition module; preferably, a fingerprint module is used, which is inexpensive and highly stable, and can achieve efficient recognition without the need for a display screen.

[0043] In the specific design, a ring-shaped indicator light 16 is also provided on the top of the main body. The biometric module is placed inside the indicator light 16 and is a fingerprint module. The indicator light 16 can work with the fingerprint module to form a variety of light effects to assist the user. For example, when the fingerprint recognition is successful, the indicator light 16 generates a green light effect to inform the user that the device can be opened. If the fingerprint recognition fails, the indicator light 16 generates a red light effect to inform the user that the recognition failed and the device cannot be opened.

[0044] The advantages of this utility model are:

[0045] As can be seen, when the locking pin extends into the sealing groove, it forms a locked state, and the triggering element accumulates elastic potential energy. After the identity is correctly matched, the locking pin retracts into the interior of the main cover to form an unlocked state. At the same time, the elastic potential energy of the triggering element is released, realizing the automatic opening of the entire cup and kettle lid, making it more convenient to use.

[0046] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of this utility model. However, this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
