Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic teapot technology, specifically to a ceramic teapot that facilitates the filtering of tea residue. Background Technology
[0002] Ceramic teapots are widely used in daily tea drinking due to their safe materials, good heat retention, and excellent texture. Most existing ceramic teapots are equipped with a filter structure, and the mainstream designs are mainly divided into three categories: First, the built-in fixed filter frame, that is, the filter component is integrally formed with the body of the teapot or fixed to the bottom or middle of the teapot with buckles, such as the common ceramic filter grid welded to the inside of the teapot body; second, the independent detachable filter cup, which requires the tea leaves to be placed in the filter cup before putting it into the teapot, and the filter cup is removed to separate the tea leaves when pouring tea; third, the special anti-clogging filter structure.
[0003] According to application number CN202122641045.5, an anti-clogging ceramic teapot is disclosed, including a teapot body, the teapot body including a body, a spout on the top of one side of the body, multiple water outlet holes on one side of the body corresponding to the spout, a handle on the side of the body away from the spout, a lid on the top of the body, a handle at the center of the top of the lid, and a filter anti-clogging structure at the bottom of the inside of the body to effectively prevent the water outlet of the ceramic teapot from being blocked. The filter anti-clogging structure includes a placement chamber and a mounting bracket.
[0004] The ceramic teapots mentioned above, with their built-in fixed filter frames, require the user to reach inside the pot to remove or empty the filter frame when cleaning tea leaves. This allows impurities such as hand oils and skin flakes to adhere to the inner wall of the pot, affecting the taste of the tea and increasing cleaning burden. Furthermore, existing filter structures are designed with a fixed height, ensuring the tea leaves are always fully submerged once placed in the filter frame. However, in actual tea-drinking scenarios, users have different preferences for tea concentration. For example, green tea requires a short, shallow infusion to avoid bitterness, while Pu-erh tea requires a longer, deeper infusion to release its flavor. Fixed-height filter structures cannot flexibly switch between full immersion, partial immersion, and separation of tea leaves and tea, easily leading to uncontrolled tea concentration and affecting the drinking experience. Additionally, some filter frames are tightly connected to the pot body and cannot be removed for rinsing; only rinsing the inside of the pot with water is possible, resulting in incomplete cleaning. Therefore, we offer a ceramic teapot that facilitates easy tea filtering. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a ceramic teapot that facilitates the filtering of tea residue, thereby solving the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a ceramic teapot for easy tea dregs filtering, comprising a teapot body, a lid on the top of the teapot body, and a filter adjustment component inside the teapot body. The filter adjustment component is used to filter and intercept tea dregs and to adjust the height of the filter structure during use. A limit fixing component is provided on the filter adjustment component, which is used to limit the position of the filter adjustment component after the height is adjusted.
[0007] Optionally, the filter adjustment assembly includes an annular filter frame and a guide plate. The annular filter frame is disposed inside the teapot body. A sealing block is threadedly connected inside the annular filter frame. A sealing plate is installed on the top of the sealing block. An adjustment block is installed on the top of the sealing plate.
[0008] Optionally, the guide plate is attached to the top of the lid, and the top of the adjusting block passes through the teapot body, the lid and the guide plate from bottom to top and extends to the outside of the guide plate. The top of the adjusting block is provided with a handle, and the top of the adjusting block is installed with a threaded head. The top of the threaded head passes through the handle and extends into it to be threadedly connected to the inner wall of the handle.
[0009] Optionally, the limiting and fixing component includes a fixing shell, which is installed on the top of the guide plate. A movable moving block is provided inside the fixing shell. A locking block is installed on the right side of the moving block. Three locking slots that are adapted to the locking block are opened on the left side of the adjusting block and at the position corresponding to the locking block.
[0010] Optionally, a connecting block is installed at the bottom left side of the movable block, and a pull plate is installed on the left side of the connecting block, which penetrates the fixed shell and extends to its outside.
[0011] Optionally, a fixing block is installed on the top of the inner wall of the fixing shell, a magnet is installed on the left side of the fixing block, and an iron block that attracts the magnet is installed on the right side of the pull plate and inside the fixing shell.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. This utility model features an integrated design of a through-type adjusting block and an external handle, allowing the lower annular filter frame to rise and fall without opening the lid or reaching inside the pot. The multi-position slot design enables precise control of the filter frame height. Three slots on the left side of the adjusting block correspond to three core scenarios: complete immersion, partial immersion, and complete separation of tea leaves and tea. When the slot is engaged in the uppermost slot, the annular filter frame is fully submerged in water, suitable for teas like Pu-erh and black tea that require long, deep steeping. When engaged in the middle slot, the filter frame is partially submerged, suitable for teas like green and white tea that require short, shallow steeping to avoid bitterness. When engaged in the lowermost slot, the filter frame is completely detached from the water, separating the tea leaves from the tea and preventing overly strong tea. The limiting and fixing components ensure the stability of the annular filter frame after height adjustment, thus guaranteeing its stability within the teapot body.
[0014] 2. With the filter adjustment component, the annular filter frame can be removed without having to put your hand into the teapot. It is also easy to disassemble the annular filter frame separately for maintenance and cleaning, avoiding tea residue residue inside the annular filter frame and improving the flexibility of use.

[0023] The teapot body 1 is equipped with a filter adjustment component 2, which includes an annular filter frame 21 and a guide plate 22. The annular filter frame 21 is located inside the teapot body 1 and holds tea leaves. Through the filter holes on the annular sidewall with a diameter of 0.5-1mm, the tea water and tea leaves are separated, trapping the tea leaves inside the frame. It is connected to a sealing block 23 by threads to form a closed filter space. The annular filter frame 21 is made of 316 stainless steel mesh and 316 stainless steel plate and is cylindrical in shape. The sealing block 23 is threaded inside the annular filter frame 21 and seals the top opening of the filter frame to prevent tea leaves from leaking into the tea water inside the teapot. The top is fixed to the sealing plate 24 to form the filter frame and sealing block 22. The sealing block 23 is integrated with the sealing plate 24. The sealing block 23 is made of 316 stainless steel, and the sealing plate 24 is installed on top of the sealing block 23. The bottom of the sealing plate 24 is in close contact with the top of the annular filter frame 21. The sealing plate 24 serves as an intermediate component connecting the sealing block 23 and the adjusting block 25, transmitting the lifting force of the adjusting block 25. It also covers the top opening of the annular filter frame 21 to prevent tea leaves from overflowing from the top of the filter frame during adjustment. The sealing plate 24 is made of 316 stainless steel, and the adjusting block 25 is installed on top of the sealing plate 24. The guide plate 22 is attached to the top of the lid 100. The guide plate 22 is made of food-grade PP plastic, and has guide holes inside that fit the adjusting block 25, restricting the adjusting block 25 to vertical lifting only. To prevent the adjusting block 25 from shaking and causing the annular filter frame 21 to tilt, the top of the adjusting block 25 extends from bottom to top through the teapot body 1, the lid 100, and the guide plate 22, and extends to the outside of the guide plate 22. The surface of the adjusting block 25 slides in contact with the inner wall of the guide plate 22. The adjusting block 25 can be vertically raised and lowered under the restriction of the guide plate 22, driving the annular filter frame 21 to rise and fall synchronously. The adjusting block 25 is made of 316 stainless steel. The top and bottom of the sealing plate 24 are fixedly connected to the sealing block 23 and the adjusting block 25 by welding. A handle 26 is provided on the top of the adjusting block 25, and the bottom of the handle 26 contacts the bottom of the adjusting block 25. The handle 26 is made of food-grade PP plastic and is connected to the top of the adjusting block 25 by a threaded head 27. The adjustment block 25 is connected to the handle 26 for the user to hold and apply lifting force, controlling the adjustment block 25 to drive the annular filter frame 21 to rise and fall. The detachable design makes it easy to clean or replace it separately. At the same time, it can also drive the lid 100 to open. The top of the adjustment block 25 is equipped with a threaded head 27. The top of the threaded head 27 passes through the handle 26 and extends into it, where it is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the handle 26. The threaded head 27 is fixedly connected to the adjustment block 25 by welding. The threaded head 27 is cylindrical. By setting the threaded head 27, the adjustment block 25 can be separated from the handle 26, allowing the adjustment block 25 to be pulled out from the guide plate 22 and the lid 100, thus separating the adjustment block 25 from the lid 100 for easy cleaning.
[0024] A limit fixing component 3 is provided on the filter adjustment component 2. The limit fixing component 3 includes a fixing shell 31, which is installed on the top of the guide plate 22. The fixing shell 31 is made of food-grade ABS plastic and forms a closed space to accommodate components such as the movable block 32 and the fixing block 37, protecting the internal structure from external impacts. A movable block 32 is provided inside the fixing shell 31. The surface of the movable block 32 slides in contact with the inner wall of the fixing shell 31, which serves to guide the movable block 32. A locking block 33 is installed on the right side of the movable block 32. The movable block 32 is fixedly connected to the locking block 33 by welding. The shape of the locking block 33 is adapted to the locking slot 34. When it is locked into the locking slot 34, it can fix the height of the adjustment block 25. When it is released, it can unlock the adjustment function. Yes, when inserted into the slot 34, it fits the inner wall of the slot 34 with an interference fit, securing it firmly. When pouring tea, the adjusting block 25 will not shift downwards due to inertia. Three slots 34, corresponding to the slot 33, are located on the left side of the adjusting block 25. These slots provide three fixed positions for the adjusting block 25, corresponding to the three states of the annular filter frame 21 being fully submerged, partially submerged, and completely removed from the water surface. The spacing between these positions is reasonable, precisely matching the brewing needs of different teas. An indicator slot 4 is located on the right side of the adjusting block 25, corresponding to the slot 34. The indicator slot 4 clearly displays the current position, allowing users to determine the soaking status without opening the lid, achieving personalized and precise control of the tea concentration. The moving block 32 is installed on the bottom left side. A connecting block 35 is provided, with one end fixed to the left side of the movable block 32 and the other end penetrating through the fixed shell 31 and connected to the pull plate 36. The pull plate 36 transmits its pulling force to the movable block 32, causing it to slide to the left. The connecting block 35 and the movable block 32 are fixedly connected by welding. The left side of the connecting block 35 penetrates the fixed shell 31 and extends to its exterior, where the pull plate 36 is installed. The connecting block 35 and the pull plate 36 are fixedly connected by welding. The pull plate 36 is pulled by the user's finger to control the movable block 32 to slide to the left and unlock its limit. A fixed block 37 is installed on the top of the inner wall of the fixed shell 31. A magnet 38 is installed on the left side of the fixed block 37. The magnet 38 attracts the iron block 39 on the right side of the pull plate 36, generating a pulling force to the right, keeping the movable block 32 moving to the right. The moving block 32 maintains its rightward movement, ensuring that the locking block 33 is tightly engaged in the slot 34. The magnet 38 is made of neodymium iron boron permanent magnet. An iron block 39, made of food-grade stainless steel, is installed on the right side of the pull plate 36, inside the fixed shell 31, and attracts the magnet 38. This stable attraction ensures the locking block 33 remains tightly engaged for a long time. The attraction between the magnet 38 and the iron block 39 maintains the rightward movement of the moving block 32, ensuring the locking block 33 is tightly engaged in the slot 34. Even when the teapot is tilted and subjected to inertial impact, the filter frame will not loosen or fall off, improving safety and stability during use. A positioning rod 5 is installed on the right side of the fixed block 37. The right end of the positioning rod 5 passes through the moving block 32 and extends to its exterior, where it is fixedly connected to the right side of the inner wall of the fixed shell 31.The positioning rod 5 restricts the moving block 32 to slide horizontally along the positioning rod 5, preventing the moving block 32 from shifting up and down or back and forth.
[0025] When in use, hold the external handle 26 and pull it upward to open the lid 100 simultaneously. Then, rotate the annular filter frame 21 to separate it from the threaded sealing block 23. Pour an appropriate amount of tea into the annular filter frame 21, and then reseal the sealing block 23 with the annular filter frame 21 by thread to ensure that the threads are tightened. Then, put the annular filter frame 21 into the teapot body 1 and cover it with the lid 100, so that the tea in the annular filter frame 21 can be steeped in boiling water.
[0026] Pull the pull plate 36 outside the fixed shell 31 to the left with your finger. The pull plate 36 drives the moving block 32 inside the fixed shell 31 to move horizontally to the left along the positioning rod 5 through the connecting block 35. At this time, the locking block 33 on the right side of the moving block 32 will disengage from the locking groove 34 of the adjusting block 25. At the same time, the iron block 39 on the right side of the pull plate 36 separates from the magnet 38 on the left side of the fixed block 37, and the height adjustment function is unlocked.
[0027] With the pull plate 36 pulled to the left, the adjustment block 25 is raised and lowered by the handle 26, causing the annular filter frame 21 to move up and down within the teapot body 1. The appropriate setting can be selected based on the type of tea, which can be visually determined by the marking groove 4 on the right side of the adjustment block 25.
[0028] Fully steep setting, suitable for Pu'er and black tea. Pull down adjustment block 25 until the locking block 33 corresponds to the uppermost slot 34 of adjustment block 25. Then push the pull plate 36 to the right. Magnet 38 and iron block 39 re-attract each other, causing the locking block 33 to be locked into the uppermost slot 34. At this time, the annular filter frame 21 is completely immersed in the water in the teapot body 1, satisfying the deep steeping requirement.
[0029] The partial steeping setting is suitable for green tea and white tea. Pull the adjustment block 25 to the middle position so that the locking block 33 corresponds to the middle locking slot 34, so that the locking block 33 is inserted into the locking slot 34. Only the lower half of the annular filter frame 21 is immersed in the water to avoid the tea leaves from being over-steeped and becoming bitter.
[0030] When the tea residue and tea water separation setting is activated, and the brewing process is stopped, the adjusting block 25 is raised to the highest position, the locking block 33 is inserted into the bottom locking slot 34, the annular filter frame 21 is completely removed from the water surface, the tea leaves stop steeping, and the tea soup is prevented from being too strong.
[0031] When pouring tea, simply hold the handle of the teapot body 1 and tilt the teapot. The ring-shaped filter frame 21 can intercept the tea leaves in the tea leaves, allowing the tea to be poured out through the spout.
[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
