Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to teaware, and more particularly to a press-type magnetically controlled teapot. Background Technology
[0002] In tea-water separation teapots, using magnetic force for non-contact control is a novel and ingenious design. For example, related technologies disclose a magnetic teapot comprising a teapot body, a tea container placed inside the spout of the teapot body, and a lid covering the tea container. A spout with a magnetic valve core is located at the bottom of the tea container, and a corresponding magnetic control is provided on the lid. This magnetic control typically includes a radial magnet, which the user can rotate with their finger to change the orientation of its magnetic poles. This change in magnetic pole orientation triggers a change in the magnetic force (attraction or repulsion) between the magnet and the magnetic valve core below, thereby controlling the raising and lowering of the magnetic valve core and opening and closing the spout.
[0003] However, this method of controlling the valve core by rotating a magnetic control to change the direction of the magnetic poles has the problem of inconvenience in operation. Users need to use their fingers to "roll" the valve, and the rolling stroke is short, resulting in a poor user experience. In addition, the structure is complex and has poor reliability. It is necessary to design a rotating support structure with bearings or similar functions inside the lid. After long-term use, this rotating structure is prone to loosening or jamming due to wear, leading to problems such as control failure or incomplete closure. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a press-type magnetically controlled teapot.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the push-button magnetic teapot according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0006] The body of the pot;
[0007] The tea container is located in the spout of the teapot body. The bottom of the tea container is provided with a water outlet. The water outlet is provided with a magnetic valve core for controlling the opening and closing of the water outlet. The magnetic valve core can slide vertically in the water outlet and is normally closed. In the normally closed state, the water outlet is closed.
[0008] A teapot lid, which is placed on top of the tea caddy, has a vertically sliding press-type magnetic control that can slide between a first position and a second position.
[0009] When there is water in the tea compartment and the press-type magnetic control is in the first position, the press-type magnetic control forms a first magnetic attraction force on the magnetic valve core. The first magnetic attraction force is insufficient to drive the magnetic valve core to move upward, so that the magnetic valve core remains in the normally closed state.
[0010] When the press-type magnetic control descends from the first position to the second position under the user's pressing operation, the press-type magnetic control forms a second magnetic attraction force on the magnetic valve core. The second magnetic attraction force can drive the magnetic valve core to move upward and switch to the open state, so as to open the water outlet and allow the tea in the tea compartment to flow out.
[0011] According to the embodiments of this utility model, the press-type magnetic control teapot achieves the opening and closing control of the magnetic valve core through the press operation, which significantly improves the user operation experience. The pressing action has a longer stroke and the operation is more intuitive and convenient, and users can get clear pressing feedback. At the same time, the overall structure of the press-type magnetic control is simpler and more reliable and stable, ensuring the long-term stability of the pressing operation and the reliability and stability of the opening and closing control of the magnetic valve core.
[0012] In addition, the push-button magnetic teapot according to the above embodiments of this utility model may also have the following additional technical features:
[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, when there is no water in the tea compartment and the press-type magnetic control is located in the first position, the first magnetic attraction formed by the press-type magnetic control on the magnetic valve core can drive the magnetic valve core to move upward and switch to the open state, so as to open the water outlet.
[0014] According to one embodiment of the present invention, when there is water in the tea compartment and the press-type magnetic control is pressed to the second position and then released to return to the first position, the second magnetic attraction formed by the press-type magnetic control on the magnetic valve core drives the magnetic valve core to move upward and switch to the open state to open the water outlet. After the press-type magnetic control is reset, it forms a third magnetic attraction on the magnetic valve core, which enables the magnetic valve core to remain in the open state.

[0089] The following describes in detail, with reference to the accompanying drawings, an embodiment of the present invention: a press-type magnetic teapot.
[0090] Reference Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the press-type magnetic teapot provided according to the embodiment of this utility model includes a teapot body 10, a tea compartment 20, and a teapot lid 30.
[0091] The teapot body 10 is typically made of materials such as glass, ceramic, or metal, and has a certain volume for holding brewed tea. A handle may be provided on the teapot body 10 for easy gripping and pouring. The top of the teapot body 10 has a spout for easy installation and removal of the tea container 20.
[0092] A tea container 20 is located in the spout of the teapot body 10. The tea container 20 is typically made of materials such as glass, ceramic, or metal. It has a certain volume to hold an appropriate amount of tea leaves and warm water for brewing. A spout 21 is located at the bottom of the tea container 20, used to discharge the tea from the container. A magnetic valve core 22 controls the opening and closing of the spout 21. This magnetic valve core 22 slides vertically within the spout 21 and is normally closed, in which case the spout 21 is shut off. The magnetic valve core 22 is typically made of a material with good magnetic response, such as ferrite, neodymium iron boron permanent magnets, or other alloys with appropriate magnetic properties. The shape and size of the magnetic valve core 22 match the internal structure of the spout 21, ensuring its ability to slide within the spout 21.
[0093] In other words, the magnetic valve core 22 switches between an open and closed position vertically within the spout 21. The magnetic valve core 22 is normally in the closed position within the spout 21, corresponding to its normally closed state. This normally closed state ensures that the spout 21 is sealed by the magnetic valve core 22 in the absence of external magnetic force, preventing tea from flowing out of the tea container 20, thus guaranteeing safety and controllability during use. When the magnetic valve core 22 slides upwards to the open position, the spout 21 can be opened.
[0094] The lid 30 is affixed to the top of the tea container 20. The lid 30 can be made of various materials such as stainless steel, aluminum alloy, plastic, ceramic, wood, and bamboo. The lid 30 has a vertically sliding magnetic control 31 that can slide between a first position and a second position. Preferably, the distance between the first and second positions is 5 to 10 mm, that is, the pressing stroke of the magnetic control 31 is 5 to 10 mm.
[0095] When the tea container 20 contains water and the press-type magnetic control 31 is in the first position, the press-type magnetic control 31 forms a first magnetic attraction force on the magnetic valve core 22. This first magnetic attraction force is insufficient to drive the magnetic valve core 22 upwards, thus keeping the magnetic valve core 22 in the normally closed state (e.g., Figure 5 (As shown). It should be understood that the presence of water in the tea container 20 should be interpreted as the water volume being more than 1 / 2 of the capacity of the tea container 20.
[0096] When the press-type magnetic control 31 descends from the first position to the second position under the user's pressing operation, the press-type magnetic control 31 forms a second magnetic attraction force on the magnetic valve core 22. The second magnetic attraction force can drive the magnetic valve core 22 to move upward and switch to the open state, thereby opening the water outlet 21 and allowing the tea in the tea container 20 to flow out (e.g., Figure 6 (As shown).
[0097] In other words, the press-type magnetic control 31 can be pressed by the user on the lid 30. When the user presses the press-type magnetic control 31, it can switch vertically from a higher first position to a lower second position. The first position is the initial position of the press-type magnetic control 31. In this position, the press-type magnetic control 31 maintains a first distance from the magnetic valve core 22 below. At this time, the magnetic force generated by the press-type magnetic control 31 on the magnetic valve core 22 is a first magnetic attraction force. The first magnetic attraction force is less than the sum of the weight of the magnetic valve core 22 and the water pressure on the magnetic valve core 22, that is, F1 < (G valve core + P water), where F1 is the first magnetic attraction force, G valve core is the weight of the magnetic valve core 22, and P water is the water pressure on the magnetic valve core. The first magnetic attraction is insufficient to overcome the magnetic valve core 22's ability to move under gravity and water pressure. At this time, the magnetic valve core 22 can remain in the closed position under the dual action of gravity and water pressure, and the water outlet 21 remains closed, so the water in the tea chamber 20 can be sealed inside the tea chamber 20.
[0098] When the user applies pressure, the press-type magnetic control 31 begins to move downwards. During this process, the magnetic force between the press-type magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22 gradually increases. When the press-type magnetic control 31 reaches the second position, the distance between them is the second distance, which is less than the first distance. At this time, the magnetic force generated by the press-type magnetic control 31 on the magnetic valve core 22 is the second magnetic attraction force. The second magnetic attraction force is greater than the sum of the weight of the magnetic valve core 22 and the water pressure on the magnetic valve core 22, i.e., F2 > (G_valve core + P_water), where F2 is the second magnetic attraction force, G_valve core is the weight of the magnetic valve core 22, and P_water is the water pressure on the magnetic valve core. In other words, the second magnetic attraction force can overcome the weight of the magnetic valve core 22 and the water pressure on the magnetic valve core 22, thereby driving the magnetic valve core 22 to move upwards to switch to the open position to open the water outlet 21. The tea in the tea compartment 20 flows into the lower pot body 10 under the action of gravity, realizing the separation of tea and water.
[0099] According to the embodiments of this utility model, the press-type magnetic control teapot achieves the opening and closing control of the magnetic valve core 22 through the press operation, which significantly improves the user's operating experience. The pressing action has a longer stroke and the operation is more intuitive and convenient, and users can obtain clear pressing feedback. At the same time, the overall structure of the press-type magnetic control 31 is simpler and more reliable and stable, ensuring the long-term stability of the pressing operation and the reliability and stability of the opening and closing control of the magnetic valve core 22.
[0100] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, when there is no water in the tea compartment 20 and the press-type magnetic control 31 is located in the first position, the first magnetic attraction formed by the press-type magnetic control 31 on the magnetic valve core 22 can drive the magnetic valve core 22 to move upward and switch to the open state, so as to open the water outlet 21.
[0101] In other words, on the one hand, the first magnetic attraction is designed to be greater than the weight of the magnetic valve core 22 itself, i.e., F1 > G_valve core. Therefore, when the tea chamber 20 is empty and there is no water pressure, the first magnetic attraction generated by the press-type magnetic control 31 in its stationary first position is sufficient to overcome the weight of the magnetic valve core 22, automatically adsorbing it and keeping it in the open position. On the other hand, this first magnetic attraction is also designed to be less than the sum of the weight of the magnetic valve core 22 and the downward pressure exerted on the magnetic valve core 22 by the water when there is water in the tea chamber 20, i.e., F1 < (G_valve core + F_water pressure). Therefore, once the user pours water into the tea chamber 20, the combined force of the water pressure and the weight of the magnetic valve core 22 will exceed the first magnetic attraction, thereby keeping the spout 21 closed and ensuring that the lid 30 is placed on top of the tea chamber 20, allowing the tea to be brewed inside the tea chamber 20.
[0102] This embodiment enables the spout 21 to remain open automatically when the tea compartment 20 is dry and the lid 30 is closed. This design greatly improves the product's hygiene and user experience. After the user finishes brewing tea and cleans the tea compartment 20, they can close the lid 30 without any additional operation. The automatic opening of the spout 21 allows the residual liquid in the tea compartment 20 to flow into the pot body 10, promoting the drying of the tea compartment 20. This effectively prevents mold growth or odor caused by moisture, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the tea compartment 20.
[0103] Reference Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, when there is water in the tea compartment 20 and the press-type magnetic control 31 is pressed to the second position and then released to return to the first position, the second magnetic attraction formed by the press-type magnetic control 31 on the magnetic valve core 22 drives the magnetic valve core 22 to move upward and switch to the open state, so as to open the water outlet 21. After the press-type magnetic control 31 returns to its original position, it forms a third magnetic attraction on the magnetic valve core 22, which enables the magnetic valve core 22 to remain in the open state.
[0104] During use, in the initial state, the push-button magnetic control 31 is located in the first position, i.e., the topmost position, maintaining a first distance from the magnetic valve core 22. There is a first magnetic attraction between the push-button magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22. The first magnetic attraction is insufficient to overcome the combined force of gravity and water pressure on the magnetic valve core 22, i.e., F1 < (G valve core + P water), and the magnetic valve core 22 can reliably remain in the closed state.
[0105] When the user needs to open the water outlet 21, by pressing down the push-button magnetic control 31, the push-button magnetic control 31 moves from the first position to the second position. The distance between the push-button magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22 is shortened to the second distance, and a strong second magnetic attraction is generated between them. The second magnetic attraction can overcome the gravity of the magnetic valve core 22 and the water pressure, that is, F2 > (G_valve core + P_water), causing the magnetic valve core 22 to move upward to the open position, thus opening the water outlet 21.
[0106] When the user releases the pressure, the press-type magnetic control 31 returns to the first position. At this time, although the press-type magnetic control 31 is in the first position, since the magnetic valve core 22 has been attracted and fixed in the open position at the top, the distance between the press-type magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22 becomes a third distance, which is less than the first distance in the initial state. The third magnetic attraction F3 generated at this time is greater than the first magnetic attraction F1 in the initial state. This third magnetic attraction can just balance the gravity and water pressure, that is, F3 > (G valve core + P water), so that the magnetic valve core 22 can be stably locked in the open position, and the water outlet 21 is kept open.
[0107] This embodiment significantly optimizes the user's operation when discharging tea. When it is necessary to drain the water from the tea container 20, the user only needs to press the magnetic control 31 once and then release it. The spout 21 will automatically remain open until all the tea is drained, eliminating the need for the user to continuously press the button. This "one-press-to-open" operation transforms a task requiring sustained force into an instant and effortless action, greatly enhancing the user experience.
[0108] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, when the lid 30 is separated from the tea container 20, the magnetic valve core 22 closes the spout 21 under the action of gravity.
[0109] Specifically, when the user needs to add tea leaves, warm water, or perform cleaning operations and removes the lid 30 from the tea compartment 20, the press-type magnetic control 31 on the lid 30 is removed along with the lid 30. In this state, the physical distance between the press-type magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22 located in the water outlet 21 at the bottom of the tea compartment 20 becomes extremely large, exceeding the range where an effective magnetic attraction can be generated between them. Therefore, the magnetic attraction between the press-type magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22 can be considered to have completely disappeared.
[0110] In this situation, the magnetic valve core 22 is mainly subjected to its own gravity in the vertical direction, and when there is water in the tea container 20, it is also subjected to water pressure. Under these circumstances, the magnetic valve core 22 remains in the closed position under the action of gravity, or under the combined action of gravity and water pressure, thereby keeping the water outlet 21 closed.
[0111] This embodiment implements a simple and reliable automatic sealing mechanism. When the lid 30 is separated from the tea container 20, the magnetic valve core 22 can automatically, quickly, and reliably seal the spout 21 under the action of gravity, without requiring any additional operation from the user. In use, opening the lid 30 automatically seals the spout 21, making it convenient to add water or tea leaves to the tea container 20, significantly improving the product's ease of use.
[0112] Reference Figures 2 to 10 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the lid 30 is provided with an elastic element 313, which is used to push the press-type magnetic control 31 upward to reset to the first position when the press is released.
[0113] In the initial state, i.e., when the user applies no pressure, the elastic element 313 is at its natural length or slightly pre-compressed, and its applied elastic potential energy stably holds the magnetic control 31 at the highest point of its stroke, i.e., the first position. When the user applies a vertically downward pressing force to the magnetic control 31, this pressing force needs to overcome the preload of the elastic element 313 and continuously compresses the elastic element 313 as the magnetic control 31 moves downward. During this process, the elastic element 313 passively deforms.
[0114] Once the user releases the pressure applied to the magnetic control 31, the compressed elastic element 313 immediately releases its stored elastic potential energy, generating a vertically upward pushing force. This pushing force acts on the magnetic control 31, driving it to reset upward to its initial first position. The entire reset process is instantaneous and automatic, requiring no additional user intervention.
[0115] In this embodiment, the elastic element 313 not only realizes the automatic reset function of the press-type magnetic control 31, but also greatly enhances the user's operating experience. The progressive resistance and rebound force provided by the elastic element 313 during compression and release provide clear physical feedback, i.e., "feel," for the user's pressing action, thereby enabling accurate judgment of whether the operation has been completed.
[0116] Reference Figures 2 to 10 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the lid 30 is provided with a receiving groove H30. The magnetic control includes a first magnet 312 and a button 311. The first magnet 312 is slidably disposed in the receiving groove H30. The two magnetic poles of the first magnet 312 are arranged opposite each other in the vertical direction. Exemplarily, the first magnet 312 is an axial magnet, and the axis of the axial magnet extends vertically. An axial magnet refers to a magnet with two magnetic poles arranged opposite each other in the axial direction. This layout allows the magnetic lines of force to be concentrated along the vertical axis, resulting in a stronger and more focused magnetic field, thereby achieving more effective attraction control of the magnetic valve core 22.
[0117] Button 311 is located above the first magnet 312 for user operation by pressing. Elastic element 313 is located within the receiving groove H30, between the bottom of the receiving groove H30 and the first magnet 312. When the user presses button 311 downwards, external force is transmitted through button 311 to the first magnet 312, causing it to overcome the elastic force of elastic element 313 and move downwards, while simultaneously compressing elastic element 313. When the external force is removed, the compressed elastic element 313 pushes the first magnet 312 and button 311 upwards to reset.
[0118] Through the design of the above-mentioned specific structure, the compactness of the press-type magnetic control 31 and the convenience of operation are achieved. At the same time, the rapid reset capability of the first magnet 312 and the button 311 is guaranteed, ultimately improving the overall performance of the product and the user experience.
[0119] Reference Figures 2 to 10 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a handle 301 is detachably provided on the lid 30. The handle 301 has a through hole, and the button 311 is located in the through hole, so that the handle 301 can provide stable and precise guidance for the reciprocating motion of the button 311, prevent the button 311 from tilting or shaking during the pressing process, and ensure effective transmission of pressing force and smooth operation.
[0120] The lower periphery of button 311 has a radially outwardly protruding retaining edge, and a limiting step surface is provided in the through hole, with the retaining edge stopping below the limiting step surface. During assembly, the elastic element 313 and the magnet are sequentially inserted into the receiving groove H30, then button 311 is inserted into the through hole from the bottom of handle 301, and finally handle 301 is installed onto the lid 30. When button 311 returns to its original position under the action of elastic element 313, the upper surface of its retaining edge will abut against the limiting step surface in the through hole, thereby limiting the highest position of button 311 and effectively preventing button 311 from coming out of handle 301 due to excessive return force.
[0121] In this embodiment, the handle 301 and the guide and limiting structure of the button 311 are combined, making the overall structure of the lid 30 more compact, simple, and aesthetically pleasing, and easier to assemble. The cooperation between the retaining edge and the limiting step surface achieves a low-cost and highly reliable anti-dislodgement and positioning mechanism, ensuring that the button 311 can accurately stop at the preset initial position when subjected to the reset force of the elastic element 313, thus guaranteeing the consistency and reliability of the magnetic control function.
[0122] Reference Figure 9As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the elastic element 313 is a cylindrical spring, the bottom of the receiving groove H30 is provided with a positioning post 302, the bottom of the first magnet 312 is provided with a positioning hole H31, the lower end of the cylindrical spring is sleeved on the positioning post 302, and the upper end of the cylindrical spring is inserted into the positioning hole H31.
[0123] Through the cooperation of the bottom positioning post 302 and the top positioning hole H31, both ends of the cylindrical spring are effectively fixed, and the cylindrical spring can remain coaxial with the central axis of the receiving groove H30 and the first magnet 312. This ensures that the spring's movement trajectory is highly consistent and the force is uniform throughout its deformation and reset stroke, thereby efficiently and stably converting elastic energy into kinetic energy to drive the first magnet 312 to reset vertically, ensuring smooth and fluid pressing operation and precise reset action.
[0124] Reference Figure 10 As shown, in another embodiment of this utility model, the elastic element 313 is a tower-shaped spring, the large end of the tower-shaped spring abuts against the bottom of the receiving groove H30, and the small end of the tower-shaped spring abuts against the bottom of the first magnet 312.
[0125] This embodiment, by employing a tower-shaped spring with its large end at the bottom and the small end at the top, greatly enhances the working stability of the elastic element 313. The inherent structural characteristics of the tower-shaped spring effectively prevent buckling and displacement during stress, thus eliminating the need for additional auxiliary positioning structures and simplifying the structure. Furthermore, this highly stable structure ensures the stability of the reset action, improving the smoothness and reliability of the pressing operation.
[0126] Reference Figures 11 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, the spout 21 includes a spout tube 211 and a spout cap 212. The spout tube 211 is sealed at the bottom of the tea container 20. Exemplarily, the spout tube 211 passes through the bottom wall of the tea container 20 and is locked and fixed by a locking nut 213. A sealing ring 214 is provided between the locking nut 213 and the bottom wall of the tea container 20 to achieve fixation and sealing. The upper end of the spout tube 211 is located inside the tea container 20 and its peripheral wall is provided with a water inlet hole H2a. The lower end of the spout tube 211 is located outside the tea container 20 and has a water outlet hole H2b. The water inlet hole H2a is used to allow tea water in the tea container 20 to flow into the spout 21, and the spout 21 is used to discharge the tea water. That is, the tea in the tea container 20 can flow into the spout 21 through the water inlet hole H2a on the upper side of the spout 21, and then flow out through the water outlet hole H2b at the lower end of the spout 21.
[0127] A cap 212 is fitted over the top of the spout tube 211, and the inner top surface of the cap 212 has a sliding cavity P21. Preferably, the cap 212 is threadedly connected to the top of the spout tube 211. The size and shape of the sliding cavity P21 are adapted to the upper end of the magnetic valve core 22. The function of the cap 212 is to enclose the magnetic valve core 22 within the spout 21, isolate the tea leaves floating in the tea container 20 from the spout 21, and prevent the tea leaves from entering the spout 21 and affecting or interfering with the movement of the magnetic valve core 22.
[0128] The magnetic valve core 22 is disposed inside the nozzle tube 211, and the upper end of the magnetic valve core 22 is slidably engaged with the sliding cavity P21, so that the magnetic valve core 22 can slide upward inside the nozzle tube 211 to open the water outlet H2b, and can automatically fall down under the action of gravity to close the water outlet H2b.
[0129] The magnetic valve core 22 is magnetic and can form a magnetic coupling relationship with the push-button magnetic control 31 on the lid 30. When the push-button magnetic control 31 is pressed down to the second position, a second magnetic attraction is generated between the push-button magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22, driving the magnetic valve core 22 to slide upward, opening the water outlet H2b, thereby allowing tea to flow into the lower body 10. In this process, on the one hand, since the magnetic valve core 22 is sealed inside the spout 21 by the spout cap 212, and the spout 21 only allows tea to flow in laterally, the magnetic valve core 22 moves entirely inside the spout 21 and is not affected by tea leaves, further improving the stability and reliability of the opening and closing action of the magnetic valve core 22 on the water outlet H2b. On the other hand, the upper end of the magnetic valve core 22 slides smoothly up and down under the guidance and constraint of the sliding cavity P21, further ensuring the reliability of its control over the opening and closing of the water outlet H2b.
[0130] In this embodiment, the above-described structure ensures that the movement of the magnetic valve core within the spout 21 is not easily affected by tea leaves, thus guaranteeing stable and reliable up-and-down sliding of the magnetic valve core 22 within the spout 21. This prevents problems such as tea leaves getting stuck, causing the magnetic valve core to fail to fall back smoothly, and the spout H2b not closing properly and leaking water. This significantly improves the stability and reliability of the opening and closing control of the spout H2b, enhancing the user experience.
[0131] Reference Figures 2 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the magnetic valve core 22 has magnetic poles arranged vertically upwards opposite each other, and the direction of the magnetic poles of the magnetic valve core is opposite to the direction of the magnetic poles of the push-button magnetic control 31, so that a magnetic attraction is generated between the push-button magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22. For example, the upper end of the magnetic valve core 22 is the S pole and the lower end is the N pole, and the lower end of the push-button magnetic control 31 is the N pole and the upper end is the S pole.
[0132] By reversing the magnetic pole orientations, the force between the push-type magnetic control 31 and the magnetic valve core 22 is ensured to remain constant as an attractive force, enabling a drive method that lifts the magnetic valve core 22 by pressing and compressing it a short distance. Furthermore, this magnetic pole orientation configuration achieves a magnetic focusing effect, generating a stronger driving force acting in the effective direction, thus improving the reliability of controlling the magnetic valve core 22.
[0133] Reference Figures 11 to 15 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the water outlet 21 further includes a filter cylinder 23. The filter cylinder 23 is located inside the tea chamber 20 and is coaxially sleeved outside the upper end of the nozzle tube 211. The circumferential surface of the filter cylinder 23 is provided with a filter hole H23, and the water inlet hole H2a is located inside the filter cylinder 23.
[0134] In this embodiment, the filter cylinder 23, which is sleeved on the outer side of the spout tube 211, has filter holes H23 located on the outer side of the filter cylinder 23 relative to the cover structure covering the spout 21. The filter cylinder 23 has a certain height at the bottom of the tea container 20, making it difficult for it to be completely covered by tea leaves. This ensures that the filter holes H23 are not completely covered, and at least some of the filter holes H23 remain unobstructed. Therefore, the smooth flow of tea water can be improved.
[0135] Reference Figures 14 to 15 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the magnetic valve core 22 includes a valve housing 221, a second magnet 223, and a sealing head 224. The valve housing 221 is cylindrical and its upper end is slidably engaged with the sliding cavity P21.
[0136] The second magnet 223 is encapsulated within the valve housing 221. This second magnet 223 can also be an axial magnet, with its axis extending vertically, allowing for better magnetic attraction with the first magnet 312. Encapsulating the second magnet 223 within the valve housing 221 serves two purposes: firstly, it protects the second magnet 223, completely isolating it from the tea, effectively preventing oxidation, corrosion, or magnetic degradation that could occur from prolonged immersion in a humid and hot environment, thus significantly extending the lifespan of the magnetic valve core 22. Secondly, the isolation of the second magnet 223 from the tea ensures the hygiene of the tea, improving its hygiene and safety.
[0137] A sealing head 224 is located at the lower end of the valve housing 221. When the magnetic valve core 22 falls under its own weight, the sealing head 224 blocks the water outlet H2b, thus closing the water outlet H2b. The sealing head 224 can be an integral part of the valve housing 221 or a separate component firmly connected to the lower end of the valve housing 221. The bottom surface of the sealing head 224 facing the water outlet H2b is the sealing surface. When the magnetic valve core 22 falls back under its own weight, the sealing surface of the sealing head 224 can fit tightly against the nozzle, thereby effectively blocking the water outlet H2b and preventing liquid leakage.
[0138] The composite structure of the magnetic valve core 22 described above provides stable structural support and smooth motion guidance for the valve housing 221; the internally encapsulated second magnet 223 provides a powerful and precise magnetic driving force and is effectively isolated and protected, ensuring hygiene and safety; while the sealing head 224 ensures the reliability of the sealing action.
[0139] Reference Figure 15 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the sealing head 224 has a conical sealing surface S22, and the water outlet H2b is formed as a conical hole with a diameter that gradually decreases from top to bottom. When the magnetic valve core 22 falls under its own gravity, the conical sealing surface S22 fits against the conical inner wall of the water outlet H2b to seal the water outlet H2b.
[0140] In other words, the lower end of the sealing head 224 is configured to have a conical sealing surface S22. Correspondingly, the water outlet hole H2b at the bottom of the water outlet 21 is a conical hole with an inner diameter that gradually narrows from top to bottom, and the taper of its inner wall matches the conical sealing surface S22 of the sealing head 224.
[0141] When the lid 30 is opened, the magnetic attraction of the press-type magnetic control 31 to the magnetic valve core 22 disappears. As the magnetic valve core 22 falls vertically under its own weight, its conical sealing surface S22 naturally enters and adheres to the conical inner wall of the water outlet H2b. Due to the inherent guiding characteristics of the conical geometry, even if there is a slight gap in the fit of the magnetic valve core 22 within the sliding cavity P21 or a slight wobbling during the fall, this conical structure can still automatically center and calibrate, guiding the sealing head 224 precisely into the center of the water outlet H2b, ensuring ideal alignment with each closing action. A continuous, uniform 360-degree circumferential contact is formed between the conical sealing surface S22 and the conical inner wall of the water outlet H2b, achieving a seal on the water outlet H2b and effectively preventing tea from seeping or dripping out.
[0142] Reference Figures 14 to 15As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the sealing head 224 has an upwardly protruding connecting post 2241 at its center, and the connecting post 2241 is connected to the lower end of the valve housing 221. Exemplarily, the bottom center of the valve housing 221 has a threaded post 2211, and the connecting post 2241 has a threaded hole adapted to the threaded post 2211. Thus, the sealing head 224 can be installed at the bottom of the valve housing 221 via a threaded connection.
[0143] In this embodiment, the above-described structure creates a large pressure-bearing surface around the connecting column 2241 on the sealing head 224, allowing the water outlet 21 to be subjected to water pressure. By utilizing the combined effects of water pressure and its own gravity, a reliable and stable sealing effect can be achieved when the magnetic valve core 22 is in the closed position.
[0144] Reference Figure 14 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the valve housing 221 includes a cylindrical shell and a cover 222. The top of the cylindrical shell has a receiving groove H30. The second magnet 223 is embedded in the receiving groove H30. The cover 222 is welded and sealed to the top of the cylindrical shell to seal the receiving groove H30.
[0145] In this embodiment, the second magnet 223 is inserted from the top of the cylindrical shell and sealed by welding with the cap 222, thus achieving complete sealing of the second magnet 223 and isolating it from the external environment, especially from tea and water. The structure is simple and easy to assemble and manufacture.
