Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea boxes, and in particular to a mate tea caddy with a tea powder filtering function. Background Technology

[0002] Mate tea is a traditional South American herbal tea. Because its processing involves crushing the tea leaves into small pieces, it contains a lot of tea powder. This powder helps control the strength of the tea's flavor. Since most people prefer a milder flavor in mate tea, after pouring the tea leaves into a cup, they need to cover the rim with their palm, tilt the cup, and shake it to dislodge some of the tea powder onto their hands. This process is inconvenient and makes their hands dirty.

[0003] To address this technical problem, a tea box capable of filtering tea residue has emerged. For example, a patent application (patent number 201711447440.1) published in Chinese patent literature, entitled "A Tea Box Capable of Filtering Tea Residue," mainly includes a tea box body, a lid and a filter screen located at the top and bottom of the tea box body, with a residue box placed over the filter screen at the bottom of the tea box body. While this solution can allow tea fragments in the tea box body to fall into the residue box through the filter screen, it still has the following shortcomings in practical applications:

[0004] First, because the filter screen is located at the bottom of the tea box, when the tea box is shaken to filter out tea dust, the tea dust accumulated at the top of the tea pile needs to pass through the middle and bottom of the tea pile before it can reach the filter screen for filtration. This makes the shaking process time long and not fast or reliable.

[0005] Secondly, because the filter screen has a top opening and filter holes on all four sides and bottom, when the tea canister is tilted and inverted to pour out tea, the residue box is located above the main body of the tea box. This causes tea fragments to flow back into the main body of the tea box through the filter screen, resulting in poor reliability.

[0006] Therefore, given the aforementioned shortcomings of existing tea box products with filtering functions, the applicant believes it is essential to redesign and improve their structure in order to better facilitate people's consumption of mate tea. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned problems and shortcomings, and to provide a mate tea canister with a tea powder filtering function. The mate tea canister has tea powder filtering holes arranged on all four sides of the upper, middle and lower parts of the tea storage chamber, so that the tea powder can be filtered nearby, which greatly shortens the shaking processing time, making the operation faster and more reliable. Moreover, whether the mate tea canister is upright, horizontal or tilted and inverted, it can prevent the tea powder from flowing back, and the reliability of use is very high.

[0008] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: A mate tea canister with tea powder filtering function includes a tea canister body. The tea canister body has an inner cavity that runs vertically through its upper and lower ends. The upper and lower ends of the inner cavity are respectively covered with an upper cover and a lower cover. The feature is that it also includes a filter cylinder. The filter cylinder is fitted into the inner cavity to divide the inner cavity into a tea storage chamber and a tea powder filtering chamber. The tea powder filtering chamber is arranged to cover the four sides and bottom of the tea storage chamber. The filter cylinder has a cylindrical structure with an open top and a sealed bottom. The upper, middle and lower parts of the four sides of the filter cylinder are also provided with a number of tea powder filtering holes. The tea storage chamber and the tea powder filtering chamber are connected through the tea powder filtering holes.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the filter cylinder is further provided with a partition baffle, which divides the tea powder filtration chamber into a side filtration chamber that covers the four sides of the tea storage chamber and a tea powder storage chamber that covers the bottom of the tea storage chamber. The partition baffle is also provided with a tea powder through hole that connects the side filtration chamber and the tea powder storage chamber. A backflow blocking step is also formed between the tea powder through hole and the tea powder storage chamber.

[0010] Preferably, a sealing ring is provided between the reflux blocking step and the tea powder storage chamber.

[0011] Preferably, the side filter chamber is further provided with a first guide slope to guide the tea powder to the tea powder passage.

[0012] Preferably, the partition baffle is a vertically arranged cylindrical baffle structure, and a second guide slope is provided between the bottom surface of the filter cylinder and the partition baffle, which is arranged opposite to the tea powder passage.

[0013] Preferably, a third guide slope is provided between the bottom surface and the surrounding sides of the tea storage chamber.

[0014] Preferably, the filter cylinder includes an upper frame, a lower frame, and a cylindrical filter screen disposed between the upper frame and the lower frame, with each tea powder filter hole disposed on the cylindrical filter screen.

[0015] Preferably, the cylindrical filter screen is further provided with reinforcing connecting frames on both sides, which are respectively connected to the upper frame and the lower frame.

[0016] Preferably, the top edge of the upper frame is further provided with an annular support protrusion, which is sandwiched between the upper end of the inner cavity and the upper cover.

[0017] Preferably, the upper cover includes a sealing cover mounted on the upper end of the inner cavity and a dustproof cap plate rotatably disposed on the sealing cover. The sealing cover has a first tea outlet that communicates with the tea storage chamber and can be covered by the dustproof cap plate. The dustproof cap plate has a second tea outlet that corresponds to the first tea outlet. A positioning groove is provided on the side of the sealing cover near the first tea outlet or on the side of the sealing cover away from the first tea outlet. The dustproof cap plate also has a positioning protrusion that can be inserted into or removed from the positioning groove.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model utilizes a filter cylinder to divide the inner cavity into a tea storage chamber and a tea powder filtration chamber. Furthermore, several tea powder filtration holes are provided on the upper, middle, and lower parts of the filter cylinder's surrounding sides. This ensures that tea powder is filtered on all four sides of the tea storage chamber, allowing for close-range filtration and significantly reducing shaking time, making operation faster and more reliable. Moreover, because the tea powder filtration chamber covers the sides and bottom of the tea storage chamber, whether the yerba mate canister is upright, horizontal, or tilted, the filtered tea powder in the filtration chamber remains below the tea storage chamber, preventing backflow. Additionally, the sealed bottom of the filter cylinder prevents tea powder on the bottom lid from entering the tea storage chamber when the yerba mate canister is tilted or inverted, effectively preventing backflow and ensuring high reliability. Meanwhile, as the tea leaves are poured out, they continue to slide through the tea powder filter holes below for further tea powder filtration, making it more reliable. Attached Figure Description

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mate tea caddy with tea powder filtering function of this utility model includes a tea caddy body 1. The tea caddy body 1 has an inner cavity 11 that runs vertically through its upper and lower ends. The upper and lower ends of the inner cavity 11 are respectively covered by an upper cover 2 and a lower cover 3. In order to achieve the purpose proposed by this utility model, as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model also includes a filter cylinder 4, which is fitted into the inner cavity 11 to separate the tea into a tea storage chamber 101 and a tea powder filtration chamber 102. The tea powder filtration chamber 102 is arranged to cover the four sides and bottom of the tea storage chamber 101. The filter cylinder 4 is a cylindrical structure with an open top and a sealed bottom. Several tea powder filtration holes 41 are also provided on the upper, middle and lower parts of the four sides of the filter cylinder 4. The tea storage chamber 101 and the tea powder filtration chamber 102 are connected through the tea powder filtration holes 41.

[0026] In practical applications, such as Figure 3 As shown, the upper cover 2 and the tea canister body 1 are respectively provided with internal threads 12 and external threads 13 between them. This allows the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 to be connected to the upper and lower ends of the inner cavity 11 of the tea canister body 1 in an openable manner, so that the upper cover 2 can be opened to put tea into the tea storage chamber 101, and the lower cover 3 can be opened to pour out the tea powder accumulated inside.

[0027] To further prevent tea powder from flowing back, such as Figure 3As shown, the bottom of the filter cylinder 4 is also provided with a partition baffle 42. The partition baffle 42 divides the tea powder filtration chamber 102 into a side filtration chamber 103 covering the four sides of the tea storage chamber 101 and a tea powder storage chamber 104 covering the bottom of the tea storage chamber 101. The partition baffle 42 is also provided with a tea powder passage 43 connecting the side filtration chamber 103 and the tea powder storage chamber 104. A backflow blocking step 44 is also formed between the tea powder passage 43 and the tea powder storage chamber 104. This ensures that the tea powder in the side filtration chamber 103 can flow into the tea powder storage chamber 104 through the tea powder passage 43, and the backflow blocking step 44 blocks the tea powder in the tea powder storage chamber 104, greatly preventing the tea powder from flowing into the tea powder passage 43. This effectively reduces the probability of tea powder flowing back into the side filtration chamber 103, making it more reliable. In practical applications, there are multiple tea powder through holes 43, which are arranged around the central axis of the partition baffle 42.

[0028] To improve the backflow blocking effect of the step 44 on tea powder and further prevent tea powder backflow, such as Figure 3 As shown, a sealing ring 5 is also provided between the backflow blocking step 44 and the tea powder storage chamber 104.

[0029] In order to allow the tea powder in the side filter chamber 103 to flow more easily into the tea powder passage 43, such as Figure 3 As shown, the side filter chamber 103 is also provided with a first guide slope 105 to guide the tea powder to the tea powder passage 43.

[0030] In practical applications, the partition baffle 42 can be an annular horizontal baffle structure (not shown). Preferably, as... Figure 3 As shown, the partition baffle 42 is a vertically arranged cylindrical baffle structure. This allows the volume of the tea storage chamber 101 to be greater than the volume of the tea powder filtration chamber 102 without changing the internal volume of the inner cavity 11, thus accommodating more tea leaves in the tea storage chamber 101.

[0031] To ensure that the tea powder passing through the tea powder passage 43 can more easily fall to the bottom of the tea powder storage chamber 104, and to prevent the tea powder from splashing around, thereby further preventing the tea powder from flowing back, such as... Figure 3 As shown, a second guide slope 45 is provided between the bottom surface of the filter cylinder 4 and the partition baffle 42, which is arranged opposite to the tea powder passage 43.

[0032] In order to allow the tea powder accumulated at the bottom of the tea storage chamber 101 to flow more easily to the surrounding sides of the tea storage chamber 101, thereby achieving the purpose of filtering the tea powder, such as... Figure 3 As shown, a third guide slope 46 is also provided between the bottom surface and the surrounding sides of the tea storage chamber 101.

[0033] To further improve the structure of filter cartridge 4, making it simple, easy to implement, easy to manufacture, and with high overall structural strength, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the filter cylinder 4 includes an upper frame 47, a lower frame 48, and a cylindrical filter screen 49 disposed between the upper frame 47 and the lower frame 48. Each tea powder filter hole 41 is respectively disposed on the cylindrical filter screen 49. By setting the upper frame 47 and the lower frame 48, the structural strength of the upper and lower ends of the cylindrical filter screen 49 can be improved, preventing deformation and ensuring a very good tea powder filtration effect. Specifically, the partition baffle 42 is integrally formed at the bottom of the lower frame 48.

[0034] To further improve the overall structural strength of filter cartridge 4, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the cylindrical filter screen 49 is further provided with reinforcing connecting frames 40 on both sides, which are respectively connected to the upper frame 47 and the lower frame 48. This enhances the vertical structural strength of the cylindrical filter screen 49, thereby increasing the overall structural strength of the filter cylinder 4.

[0035] To ensure that the filter cartridge 4 remains stable and does not easily loosen or wobble after being installed inside the inner cavity 11, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the top edge of the upper frame 47 is also provided with an annular support protrusion 471, which is sandwiched between the upper end of the inner cavity 11 and the upper cover 2. Specifically, the annular support protrusion 471 rests against the upper surface of the tea canister body 1, so that even if the upper cover 2 is opened, the filter cylinder 4 can remain stable and not easily loose.

[0036] To further improve the structure of the top cover 2, and to facilitate the emptying of tea from the tea storage chamber 101 without disassembling the top cover 2, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the upper cover 2 includes a sealing cover 21 mounted on the upper end of the inner cavity 11, and a dustproof cap plate 22 rotatably mounted on the sealing cover 21. The sealing cover 21 has a first tea outlet 211 that communicates with the tea storage chamber 101 and can be covered by the dustproof cap plate 22. The dustproof cap plate 22 has a second tea outlet 221 that corresponds to the first tea outlet 211. When pouring out the tea in the tea storage chamber 101, simply rotate the dustproof cap plate 22 so that the second tea outlet 221 is directly above the first tea outlet 211, thereby connecting the second tea outlet 221 with the first tea outlet 211, and allowing the tea in the tea storage chamber 101 to be poured out after passing through the first tea outlet 211 and the second tea outlet 221.

[0037] To prevent the dustproof cap 22 from rotating arbitrarily after the second tea outlet 221 is positioned directly above the first tea outlet 211, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a positioning groove 212 is provided on one side of the sealing cap 21 near the first tea outlet 211, and the dustproof cap plate 22 is also provided with a positioning protrusion 222 that can be inserted into or detached from the positioning groove 212. Meanwhile, to prevent the dustproof cap plate 22 from rotating freely after it covers the first tea outlet 211, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a positioning groove 212 is also provided on the side of the sealing cap 21 away from the first tea outlet 211. The dustproof cap plate 22 is also provided with a positioning protrusion 222 that can be inserted into or detached from the positioning groove 212. In actual production, depending on the usage, the positioning groove 212 can be provided on only one side of the sealing cap 21, but preferably, positioning grooves 212 are provided on both sides of the sealing cap 21. In practical applications, only one positioning protrusion 222 needs to be provided on the dustproof cap plate 22 to achieve the corresponding positioning groove 212 in the above two situations.

[0038] In practical applications, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the sealing cover 21 is also provided with a hinge shaft 213 in the middle, and the dustproof cap plate 22 is also provided with a hinge hole 223 that is hinged to the hinge shaft 213 in the middle.
