Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of multifunctional tea boxes, specifically a multifunctional tea box. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of tea storage and packaging, tea boxes are crucial for protecting tea quality, and their performance directly affects the tea's moisture-proofing, odor-proofing, and freshness-preserving effects. Although there is a wide variety of tea boxes on the market, they still have many shortcomings in practical use, as detailed below:
[0003] Insufficient sealing performance: Most tea boxes use a traditional lid-and-box locking structure, which is simple and prone to loosening and becoming inadequate after prolonged use. Tea has a strong hygroscopic and absorbent property, and a poor seal will cause it to quickly absorb moisture and even absorb external odors, seriously affecting the taste, aroma, and shelf life of the tea.
[0004] Limited Functionality: Existing tea boxes mostly only have a single function of storage, lacking added value. As consumers' demands for product personalization and multi-functionality increase, boxes that can only be used to store tea cannot meet diverse needs such as decoration and reuse.
[0005] Decorative patterns are easily damaged: To enhance aesthetics, some tea boxes feature decorative patterns on their surface. However, these patterns are often directly printed or pasted onto the outer layer of the box. During daily use, the patterns are prone to peeling, blurring, or wear due to friction, bumps, water stains, etc., resulting in a decrease in the box's appearance and affecting the product's quality.
[0006] Inconvenient opening and closing: Some tea boxes are not designed with a special force-bearing structure, and you have to use force to pry open or close the lid or box body. This is difficult for users with less strength (such as the elderly or women) and the user experience is not good.
[0007] Poor component reusability: Most components of the box are fixedly connected and cannot be disassembled for individual use. After the tea is used up, the entire box is often left idle or discarded, resulting in resource waste and contradicting the current concepts of green environmental protection and efficient resource utilization.
[0008] To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a multifunctional tea box. Utility Model Content
[0009] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a multifunctional tea box to solve the problems of easily damaged decorative patterns, inconvenient opening and closing operation, and poor reusability of components in the prior art mentioned in the background art.
[0010] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multifunctional tea box, comprising a bottom shell, a holding shell, a sealing shell, a top cover, buckles A and B. The holding shell is fixedly connected to the left end of the bottom shell, and the sealing shell is fixedly connected to the right end of the top cover. The outer side of the sealing shell is slidably connected to the holding shell. Buckle A is fixedly connected to the inner side of the holding shell near the top cover, and buckle B is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sealing shell near the bottom shell. A magnetic suction plate is provided at the left end of the top cover, and a PVC plastic plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the magnetic suction plate. A patterned layer is installed on the PVC plastic plate.
[0011] Furthermore, there are twelve clips A, which are evenly installed on the inner side of the holding shell, and there are twelve clips B, which are evenly installed on the inner side of the sealing shell.
[0012] Furthermore, both the bottom shell and the top cover are U-shaped, the sealing shell is embedded inside the top cover, and the holding shell is embedded inside the bottom shell.
[0013] Furthermore, a groove A is provided on the outer right side of the upper cover, and a groove B is provided on the outer right side of the bottom shell. The groove A and the groove B are arranged symmetrically from left to right.
[0014] Furthermore, the left side of the PVC plastic sheet has a frosted surface design, and the pattern layer is printed on the frosted surface of the PVC plastic sheet.
[0015] Furthermore, the PVC plastic sheet is hollow and double-layered, with the patterned layer disposed on the inner side of the PVC plastic sheet.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] This utility model features a combination of buckle A, buckle B, a magnetic plate, a PVC plastic sheet, and a pattern layer. Buckle A and buckle B are interference-fitted to facilitate the sealing of the holding shell and the sealing shell. The cavities inside the holding shell and the sealing shell can hold tea leaves. The groove design makes it easy to open and close to retrieve the tea leaves. The magnetic plate is magnetically connected to the top cover and can be removed separately, allowing the pattern layer to be used as a standalone creative product. With the magnetic plate, it can be used as a refrigerator magnet, for example. The PVC plastic sheet is used to support and protect the pattern layer, and the components are highly reusable.

[0027] Example 1
[0028] Please see Figures 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: a multifunctional tea box, including a bottom shell 1, a holding shell 2, a sealing shell 3, a top cover 4, buckles A5 and B6. The holding shell 2 is fixedly connected to the left end of the bottom shell 1, and the sealing shell 3 is fixedly connected to the right end of the top cover 4. The outer side of the sealing shell 3 is slidably connected to the holding shell 2. Buckles A5 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the holding shell 2 near the top cover 4. Buckles A5 and B6 are correspondingly arranged, and both buckles A5 and B6 are arc-shaped to facilitate the limiting of the sealing shell 3 and the top cover 4. The bottom shell 1 and the top cover 4 are aligned, and then the sealing shell 3 is placed into the holding shell 2 and secured. Buckle A5 and buckle B6 should work together seamlessly, allowing buckle B6 to pass through buckle A5 to the right side of buckle A5, thus limiting and fixing the holding shell 2 and the sealing shell 3 to prevent them from falling off. Buckle B6 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sealing shell 3 near the bottom shell 1. A magnetic plate 7 is provided on the left end of the top cover 4. The magnetic plate 7 has strong magnetism and can be attracted to the top cover 4. It can also be forcefully snapped off at any time to separate the magnetic plate 7 from the top cover 4, and can be removed separately as a creative product. A PVC plastic plate 8 is fixedly connected to the left side of the magnetic plate 7, and a pattern layer 9 is installed on the PVC plastic plate 8.
[0029] There are twelve clips A5, which are evenly installed on the inside of the container 2. There are also twelve clips B6, which are evenly installed on the inside of the sealing shell 3. The interference fit between clips A5 and clips B6 facilitates the limiting and fixing of the sealing shell 3 and the container 2, and facilitates the fitting and sealing of the container 2 and the sealing shell 3.
[0030] Both the bottom shell 1 and the top cover 4 are U-shaped. The sealing shell 3 is embedded inside the top cover 4, and the holding shell 2 is embedded inside the bottom shell 1, which facilitates the protection of the sealing shell 3 and the top cover 4.
[0031] The upper cover 4 has a groove A on the outer right side, and the bottom shell 1 has a groove B on the outer right side. The grooves A and B are symmetrically arranged to facilitate the opening of the upper cover 4 and the bottom shell 1 with fingers. For example, the four fingers of both hands support the bottom of the upper cover 4 and the bottom shell 1 respectively, the right thumb holds the groove B, and the left thumb holds the groove A, making it easy to open the upper cover 4 and the bottom shell 1 with force.
[0032] The left side of the PVC plastic sheet 8 has a frosted surface design, and the pattern layer 9 is printed on the frosted surface of the PVC plastic sheet 8. This design can reduce the possibility of the pattern layer 9 being incomplete due to bumps or knocks on the PVC plastic sheet 8, thus affecting the visual effect. The unevenness of the frosted surface can be understood as small pixels. Bumps or knocks do not affect the pattern layer 9 on the raised part of the frosted surface of the PVC plastic sheet 8. After the PVC plastic sheet 8 is bumped, the pattern layer 9 still maintains the integrity of the view, improving the closing effect. In addition, the frosted surface has a good anti-slip effect.
[0033] Working principle:
[0034] The bottom shell 1 is used to install the holding shell 2, and the top cover 4 is used to install the sealing shell 3. The sealing shell 3 is placed inside the holding shell 2, and the buckle B6 passes through the buckle A5. The buckle A5 and the buckle B6 are interference fit to facilitate the sealing of the holding shell 2 and the sealing shell 3. The cavity inside the holding shell 2 and the sealing shell 3 can hold tea leaves. The magnetic plate 7 is magnetically connected to the top cover 4. The magnetic plate 7 can be removed separately, so that the pattern layer 9 can be used as a creative product on its own. With the magnetic plate 7, it can be used as a refrigerator magnet, for example. The bottom shell 1 and the holding shell 2 improve the pressure resistance and protection effect. The sealing shell 3 and the top cover 4 improve the moisture-proof effect through the limiting seal of the buckle A5 and the buckle B6. The overall volume is small and easy to carry. The frosted design of the PVC plastic plate 8 allows the pattern layer 9 to be printed or sprayed on the PVC plastic plate 8, which can reduce the impact of bumps on the appearance of the pattern layer 9. The frosted surface also has a good anti-slip effect when held.
