Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cup lid technology, specifically to a double-drinking cup lid and a water cup. Background Technology

[0002] Many water bottles now have a dual-drinking function, which generally has two drinking spouts: a direct drinking spout and a straw spout. When using them, you open the direct drinking spout to drink water when you want to drink directly, and you open the straw spout to drink water when you want to sip. Moreover, the direct drinking spout and the straw spout are usually located at both ends of the cup lid, which is not convenient for switching drinking modes. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies in terms of the inconvenience of switching drinking modes, this utility model provides a double-drinking cup lid and a water cup.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] This utility model provides a double-sided drinking cup lid and a water cup, including a lid body forming an installation cavity. The upper end of the installation cavity is provided with a connected drinking spout, and the lower end opening of the installation cavity is located inside the lid body. A rotating body is installed inside the installation cavity. The rotating body has a first channel that runs vertically through it, and also includes a straw. The upper end of the straw is connected to the lower end of the first channel. The rotating body is also provided with a second channel. When the rotating body rotates relative to the installation cavity by less than a specified angle, the rotating body closes the lower end opening of the installation cavity, and the straw, the first channel, and the drinking spout form a drinking channel. When the rotating body rotates relative to the installation cavity by more than a specified angle, the second channel simultaneously connects the lower end opening of the installation cavity and the upper end drinking spout, and the lower end opening of the installation cavity, the second channel, and the drinking spout connect to form a direct drinking channel.

[0006] Furthermore, the lower end of the first channel is provided with a straw mounting base, and the upper end of the straw is connected to the straw mounting base.

[0007] Furthermore, the mounting cavity is a spherical cavity, the rotating body is spherical, and the second channel is a recessed part opened on the side of the rotating body. The recessed part surrounds the side of the rotating body. When the cover is tilted, after the rotating body rotates at a certain angle, one side of the recessed part is connected to the lower opening of the mounting cavity, and the other side of the recessed part is connected to the drinking spout.

[0008] Furthermore, the mounting cavity is a horizontally placed cylindrical shape, the rotating body is a cylindrical shape adapted to the shape inside the mounting cavity, and the second channel is a through hole that passes horizontally through the rotating body. When the cover is tilted, after the rotating body rotates at a certain angle, the lower end of the through hole is connected to the lower opening of the mounting cavity, and the upper end of the through hole is connected to the drinking spout.

[0009] Furthermore, the lid is provided with a spout connection part, and the spout is installed into the spout connection part.

[0010] Furthermore, the suction nozzle forms the upper part of the mounting cavity.

[0011] Furthermore, the lower end of the straw is a counterweight.

[0012] Furthermore, an air intake hole is provided on the cup lid.

[0013] Furthermore, the angle is specified as C, and the range of C is 10° to 60°.

[0014] Furthermore, a water cup includes a double-sided drinking cup lid.

[0015] The beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows: by installing the lid onto the cup body, the user can drink water through the spout whether the cup is vertical or tilted. When tilted, the straw swings to one side under the action of gravity and drives the rotating body to rotate. At this time, the lower opening of the mounting cavity, the second channel and the spout are connected to form a direct drinking channel. When the cup is in a vertical state or tilted at a slight angle, the rotating body closes the lower opening of the mounting cavity, and the direct drinking channel is in a closed state. The straw, the first channel and the spout form a drinking channel. By controlling the tilt angle and cooperating with the action of gravity, the automatic switching between the drinking channel and the direct drinking channel can be achieved, which is convenient to use.

[0031] like Figures 1-10As shown, this utility model provides a double-sided drinking cup lid and a water cup, including a lid body 1, which forms an installation cavity 2. A spout 6 is provided at the upper end of the installation cavity 2, and the lower opening of the installation cavity 2 is located inside the lid body. A rotating body 3 is installed inside the installation cavity 2. The rotating body 3 has a first channel 4 that runs vertically through it. It also includes a straw 5, the upper end of which is connected to the lower end of the first channel 4. A second channel is also provided in the middle of the rotating body 3. The initial state is when both the lid body and the straw are vertical. When the lid body is tilted, the straw swings under gravity and drives the rotating body to rotate relative to the installation cavity. When the lid body is vertical or nearly vertical... When the body is vertical, the rotation angle of the rotating body relative to the mounting cavity is less than or equal to C. The rotation angle is small, and the rotating body 3 closes the lower opening of the mounting cavity 2. The second channel is not connected to the lower opening of the mounting cavity 2. When the cover is tilted and exceeds a certain angle, the rotation angle of the rotating body relative to the mounting cavity exceeds C. The rotation angle is large. At this time, the second channel connects the lower opening of the mounting cavity 2 and the upper spout 6. The value of C can be adapted to different cup shapes. The preferred C is between 10° and 60°. C can be 10°, 20°, 30°, 40°, 45°, 60°, etc.

[0032] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in the first embodiment, the mounting cavity is a spherical cavity, and the rotating body 3 is spherical. The first channel 4 of the rotating body 3 runs through both the upper and lower ends. The lower end of the first channel is provided with a straw mounting seat 7, and the upper end of the straw is connected to the straw mounting seat. The second channel is a recess 10 opened on the side of the rotating body. The recess surrounds the side of the rotating body and can be a continuous groove. When the cover is tilted, the straw swings to one side under the action of gravity and drives the rotating body to rotate. After rotating a certain angle, one side of the recess connects with the lower opening of the mounting cavity. The other side of the recess is connected to the spout. At this time, the lower opening of the mounting cavity, the recess, and the spout are connected to form a direct drinking channel. When the cover is in a vertical position and the recess is not connected to the lower opening of the mounting cavity, the rotating body closes the lower opening of the mounting cavity, and the direct drinking channel is closed. The straw, the first channel, and the spout form a drinking channel. The cover is installed on the cup body. By controlling the tilt angle and using gravity, the automatic switching between the drinking channel and the direct drinking channel can be achieved, which is suitable for different drinking scenarios.

[0033] like Figures 6-10 As shown, in the second embodiment, unlike the first embodiment, the mounting cavity is a horizontally placed cylinder, and the rotating body is also a cylinder adapted to the shape inside the mounting cavity. The second channel is a through hole 11 that passes horizontally through the rotating body. When the cover is tilted, the straw swings to one side under the action of gravity and drives the rotating body to rotate. After rotating a certain angle, the lower end of the through hole is connected to the lower opening of the mounting cavity, and the upper end of the through hole is connected to the drinking spout. At this time, the lower opening of the mounting cavity, the through hole and the drinking spout are connected to form a direct drinking channel.

[0034] The cover is provided with a spout connection part 8. The spout is installed to the spout connection part. The two can be connected by different methods such as snap-fit, threaded connection, and adhesive. The spout can form the upper part of the mounting cavity to accommodate the rotating body.

[0035] The lower end of the straw is a counterweight, meaning that the straw has a relatively large mass. Preferably, the lower end of the straw is set to have a large mass, or a counterweight structure can be added to ensure that when the lid is tilted, the straw can swing normally under the action of gravity and drive the rotating body to overcome resistance and rotate.

[0036] An air inlet 9 is provided on the lid, allowing air to enter during drinking to ensure smooth sipping.

[0037] How it works: The lid is installed on the cup body, allowing the user to drink water through the spout whether the cup is upright or tilted. When tilted, the straw swings to one side under gravity, causing the rotating body to rotate. At this time, the lower opening of the mounting cavity, the second channel, and the spout are connected to form a direct drinking channel. When the cup is upright or tilted at a slight angle, the rotating body closes the lower opening of the mounting cavity, and the direct drinking channel is closed. The straw, the first channel, and the spout form a drinking channel. By controlling the tilt angle in conjunction with gravity, the drinking channel and the direct drinking channel can be automatically switched, making it convenient to use.

[0038] The embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
