Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water cup container technology, specifically to a convenient water cup lid structure. Background Technology
[0002] Cups with lids are a common drinking tool. If the cup is designed for insulation, it usually has two lids to minimize temperature changes caused by external factors. The outer lid opens to reveal a spout on the inner lid. Alternatively, for the convenience of certain groups, such as children, the lid is often designed with two layers.
[0003] Water cups with double lids typically only have one dispensing method: either a direct spout for easy drinking, or a straw for sipping. However, with advancements, some water cups now feature lids with dual dispensing methods: one is a direct spout, and the other is a straw. These two methods cater to different drinking needs.
[0004] Currently available cup lids with two dispensing methods still have some drawbacks. For example, their complex structure makes design difficult, increasing design and production costs, and they are not convenient to use. The design of two dispensing methods requires a large lid surface area to accommodate both. Furthermore, in order to combine the two methods onto a single lid and to prevent interference, the directions of the two dispensing methods cannot be aligned. Switching between the two methods requires rotating the cup.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the design of a cup lid with two water dispensing methods based on the current situation. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0028] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0029] The specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] Based on the current problems with water cups, this utility model provides a convenient water cup lid structure. This lid combines two water dispensing methods to accommodate different water usage habits. Specifically, in conjunction with... Figures 1-5 The structure is described below.
[0031] Specifically, this cup lid structure includes a main body 1 that connects to the cup body, and the connection between the main body and the back is a threaded structure. The main body 1 has a straight suction port 2 and a straw port 3 that run through the top and bottom, and these two outlets are used to adapt to different water dispensing methods.
[0032] Meanwhile, a direct suction assembly is provided on the main body 1 in conjunction with the direct suction port 2, and a straw assembly is provided in conjunction with the straw port 3. The direct suction assembly includes a direct suction cover 4, which is fitted with a sealing element 14 that engages with the direct suction port 2, sealing the direct suction port 2. The direct suction cover 4 has a snap-fit structure that engages with the edge of the main body 1. For ease of use, the direct suction cover 4 is hinged to the main body 1, allowing the direct suction port 2 to be exposed simply by flipping it over. The top of the main body 1 also has a cover groove 8 that matches the direct suction cover 4, with the direct suction port 2 positioned within it. This facilitates the storage of the direct suction cover 4.
[0033] The straw assembly includes a straight straw 5 located below the main body 1 and a straw nozzle 6 connected to the upper end of the straight straw 5. To facilitate the sealing of the straw by the storage box of the straw nozzle 6, the straw nozzle 6 is hinged to the main body 1 and seals the straight straw 5 after being hinged and stored. Flipping the straw nozzle 6 can open and close the channel of the straight straw 5. To facilitate the flipping of the straw nozzle 6, a flipping part 10 is provided on the side wall of the straw nozzle 6 to facilitate flipping. The flipping part 10 makes it easier for the user to apply force to the straw nozzle 6.
[0034] The main body 1 has a mouthpiece groove 7 at its top, which is designed to accommodate the straw mouthpiece 6. The straw opening 3 is located within the mouthpiece groove 7, and the straw mouthpiece 6 is hinged within the mouthpiece groove 7, embedding itself into the mouthpiece groove 7 when in the retracted state. The mouthpiece groove 7 facilitates the storage of the straw mouthpiece 6. To prevent the straw mouthpiece 6 from rebounding and causing a seal failure, an anti-reverse part 11 is provided on the outer side of the hinge of the straw mouthpiece 6. The anti-reverse part 11 creates a frictional effect with the side wall of the straight suction port 2, preventing the straw mouthpiece 6 from rebounding. Simultaneously, a snap-fit part 12 is provided on the side of the straw mouthpiece 6 that mates with the main body 1, and a snap-fit hole 13 is provided inside the main body 1. The snap-fit part 12 and the snap-fit hole 13 work together to fix the straw mouthpiece 6 in place, preventing the paper straw from opening and causing leakage.
[0035] The above is the basic scheme of this solution. To optimize the structure, the direct suction component, the straw component, and the main body 1 have been redesigned. Specifically, the cover plate groove 8 and the nozzle groove 7 are designed to be aligned. The direct suction port 2 and the straw port 3 are located symmetrically on the main body 1. The nozzle groove 7 is set inside the cover plate groove 8, the straw port 3 is set inside the nozzle groove 7, and the direct suction port 2 is set inside the cover plate groove 8. At the same time, the direct suction cover 4 is hinged inside the cover plate groove 8, and the straw nozzle 6 is hinged inside the nozzle groove 7. In this way, the direct suction cover 4 is flipped open to expose the direct suction port 2, and the straw nozzle 6 is flipped open to open the channel of the direct suction tube 5. To avoid interference between the direct suction cover 4 and the straw nozzle 6 and to reduce the space occupied by the two methods, the direct suction cover 4 is provided with a clearance part 9 to avoid the straw nozzle 6. In this way, the two can achieve different opening methods without interference.
[0036] The above describes the cup lid structure that combines two water dispensing methods. This structure integrates direct water dispensing and straw dispensing, providing users with two different water usage options to suit a wider range of people and water usage environments. It simplifies the overall structural design, which helps reduce development, design, and production costs. Furthermore, the structural design has been optimized by redesigning the direction of the two water dispensing methods, so that switching between the two water usage methods does not require rotating the cup.
[0037] The above embodiments are used to explain and illustrate the present utility model, and not to limit the utility model. Any modifications and changes made to the present utility model within the spirit and scope of the claims should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
