[0025] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that these descriptions are merely descriptive and exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] It should be noted that similar labels in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it may not be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0027] Figures 1-6As shown, a rotating lid thermos includes a cup body 1, a lid 2 detachably connected to the cup body 1, a mounting groove 16 on the lid 2, and a cover plate 3 rotatably connected in the mounting groove 16. When the thermos is in use, the cover plate 3 is perpendicular to the bottom surface of the mounting groove 16 and is in an open state. The cover plate 3 is a round plate. The bottom surface of the mounting groove 16 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 11 on one side of the through hole 10 to facilitate the rotation of the cover plate 3. When the cover plate 3 is open, the end of the cover plate 3 away from the straw is located in the arc-shaped groove 11.

[0028] Figures 2-6 As shown, when drinking beverages, the cover plate 3 above the arc groove 11 is pressed. At this time, the cover plate 3 rotates as it is pressed, and one end of the cover plate 3 rotates along the arc surface inside the arc groove 11 until it abuts against the inner side wall of the arc groove 11. At this time, the cover plate 3 is perpendicular to the mounting groove 16 and the thermos cup is opened, making it convenient to drink. This design allows the thermos cup to be opened with one hand while driving, improving the convenience of operation and making it easy to use while driving.

[0029] Figures 2-6 As shown, magnetic sheets 12 that can attract each other are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover plate 3 and the inner wall of the arc groove 11. When the two magnetic sheets 12 attract each other, the cover plate 3 opens and the rigid tube 5 slides out of the through hole 10.

[0030] Figures 2-6 As shown, when the thermos is opened, the magnetic piece 12 on the lid 3 and the magnetic piece 12 on the inner wall of the arc groove 11 attract each other, thereby fixing the lid 3 in place and preventing the lid 3 from rotating when drinking water, which would affect the drinking experience. This design ensures that the thermos can be used normally.

[0031] The top surface of the cover plate 3 is provided with a groove 4 above the arc groove 11. When the cover plate 3 is rotated, a finger can be placed in the groove 4 and pressed to push the cover plate 3 to rotate. This design facilitates the application of force and positioning, so that the cover plate 3 can be accurately rotated into the arc groove 11 when pressed.

[0032] Figures 2-6 As shown, the cover plate 3 is hinged to the mounting groove 16 via a rotating shaft 14. A torsion spring 15 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 14 to drive the cover plate 3 to rotate. When the cover plate 3 is opened, the torsion spring 15 deforms. Therefore, after drinking, the cover plate 3 is rotated in the opposite direction, causing the two magnetic pieces 12 to separate. At this time, the cover plate 3 is released from its fixed position, and the deformed torsion spring 15 drives the cover plate 3 to reset, thus facilitating the reset of the cover plate 3 and further improving the ease of operation. At the same time, the torsion spring 15 can prevent the cover plate 3 from opening arbitrarily when there is a bump.

[0033] Figures 2-6As shown, a through hole 10 is provided in the mounting groove 16 below the cover plate 3. A straw extending into the cup body 1 is slidably connected in the through hole 10. The length of the straw is less than the depth of the cup body 1. When the cover plate 3 is in the mounting groove 16, the top of the straw is flush with the opening of the through hole 10 near the end of the cover plate 3. When the cover plate 3 is opened, the straw slides upward and the top of the straw is higher than the cover plate 3.

[0034] Figures 2-6 As shown, when the cover plate 3 is parallel to the mounting groove 16, the straw slides into the through hole 10 and the bottom end of the straw abuts against the inner bottom surface of the cup body 1. At this time, the straw is in a retracted state. When you need to drink water, press the groove 4. At this time, the cover plate 3 rotates as it is pressed. The force applied to the straw is reduced, and the straw gradually slides upward to expose itself, making it easier to drink water. Drinking water through the straw can avoid the situation of tilting your head back to drink water and obstructing your vision, making the car thermos cup more suitable for use while driving.

[0035] Figures 2-6 As shown, the straw includes a rigid tube 5 that slides within the through hole 10 and a flexible tube 6 that slides within the cup body 1. The rigid tube 5 and the flexible tube 6 are fixedly connected. When the cover plate 3 is opened, the rigid tube 5 slides out of the through hole 10.

[0036] Figures 2-6 As shown, by setting up a rigid tube 5 and a flexible tube 6, when drinking water, the rigid tube 5 can slide up and down more easily without deformation, while the flexible tube 6 can change shape according to the state of the liquid in the cup body 1, thus facilitating drinking.

[0037] Figures 2-6 As shown, several grooves 13 are provided on the inner wall of the through hole 10, and a slider 7 is provided on the rigid tube 5 that slides within the grooves 13. The slider 7 is integrally formed with the rigid tube 5.

[0038] Figures 2-6 As shown, when the rigid tube 5 slides, the slider 7 slides within the groove 13. The cooperation between the slider 7 and the groove 13 can effectively limit the radial sliding range of the rigid tube 5, preventing the rigid tube 5 from separating from the through hole 10 during the sliding process and affecting the drinking water.

[0039] Figures 2-6 As shown, a spring 8 is fixedly connected between the slider 7 and the groove 13. When the rigid tube 5 is located in the through hole 10, the spring 8 deforms. When the cover 3 is opened, the deformed spring 8 can push the slider 7 and the rigid tube 5 to slide upward, so that the rigid tube 5 is automatically exposed when the cover 3 is opened, making it convenient to drink water. This design further improves the convenience of using the thermos while driving.

[0040] Figures 2-6As shown, the top of the flexible tube 6 has several closed pieces 9 integrally formed, and two adjacent closed pieces 9 abut against each other. When drinking beverages, the closed pieces 9 deform and the flexible tube 6 is connected to the rigid tube 5.

[0041] Figures 2-6 As shown, when drinking beverages through the rigid tube 5 and the flexible tube 6, the closing piece 9 deforms due to the force, making the flexible tube 6 and the rigid tube 5 connected, facilitating the passage of beverages. After drinking, the deformed closing piece 9 returns to its original position, closing the channel between the flexible tube 6 and the rigid tube 5, preventing water from spilling due to bumps when not in use, and effectively improving the sealing effect of the thermos.
