Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ceramic cup technology, specifically to a ceramic cup that is easy to clean. Background Technology
[0002] A ceramic mug is a cup made of ceramic material. Ceramics are inorganic non-metallic materials made from natural mineral raw materials such as clay, quartz, and feldspar, fired at high temperatures. Ceramic mugs are characterized by their hardness, high temperature resistance, and good heat retention. Their surface is usually smooth, and some are glazed, making the mug more beautiful and easier to clean. In terms of appearance, ceramic mugs come in various shapes, such as cylindrical and flared, and their capacity ranges from tens of milliliters to hundreds of milliliters to meet different needs. Ceramic mugs can be used to hold beverages such as tea and coffee. Because the material is safe and non-toxic, long-term use is harmless to the human body, making it one of the most common drinking utensils in daily life.
[0003] Currently, when cleaning traditional ceramic cups, you need to reach inside the cup with a cloth to scrub the inner wall. However, the inside of a ceramic cup is long and narrow, making it inconvenient to reach inside and move your hand around inside.
[0004] Therefore, a ceramic cup that is easy to clean was proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more comprehensive description will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Several embodiments of this utility model are provided. However, this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the disclosure of this utility model will be more thorough and complete. Example 1
[0022] Please see Figure 1-4This embodiment provides a convenient ceramic cup, including a ceramic cup 1. The top of the ceramic cup 1 is covered with a cup lid 2. A rubber cleaning seat 3, whose size matches the inner wall and bottom of the ceramic cup 1, is fitted on the inner side of the bottom of the cup lid 2. A connecting rod 12 for storage is installed on the outer side of the ceramic cup 1. The connecting rod 12 can connect the rubber cleaning seat 3 to the inner bottom of the cup lid 2. First, the connecting rod 12 is removed from the storage position on the outside of the ceramic cup 1. Then, the two ends of the connecting rod 12 are connected and fixed to the bottom of the rubber cleaning seat 3 and the inner bottom of the cup lid 2, respectively. After the connection is completed, the user holds the cup lid 2 and can insert the rubber cleaning seat 3 into the inner wall and bottom of the ceramic cup 1 through the connecting rod 12. The cleaning is completed by rotating and lifting the cup lid 2, without having to directly touch the inside of the cup with the hands, thus effectively improving the convenience of cleaning the ceramic cup. Example 2
[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment further provides a storage compartment 11 on the outer surface of the ceramic cup 1. A connecting rod 12 is placed on the inner side of the storage compartment 11. A rubber sealing plug is inserted into the top opening of the storage compartment 11. The maximum outer diameter of the rubber sealing plug is slightly larger than the inner diameter of the top opening of the storage compartment 11. When inserting the sealing plug, it is necessary to press it firmly, and use the elastic deformation of the rubber material to squeeze it into the opening. Afterwards, the elastic force of the rubber material trying to return to its original shape will cause its outer wall to continuously and tightly adhere to and press against the inner wall of the opening of the storage compartment 11, thereby generating a huge static friction force to achieve a durable and effective seal and prevent it from loosening on its own. Example 3
[0024] Please see Figure 2 Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment further specifies that a ring 21 is installed at the bottom of the cup lid 2, and a rubber cleaning seat 3 is snapped into the inner side of the ring 21. The outer diameter of the rubber cleaning seat 3 and the inner diameter of the ring 21 are interference fit, and the compression elastic deformation of the rubber cleaning seat 3 and the inner wall of the ring 21 generate a compressive force to achieve the snapping. When the rubber cleaning seat 3 is pressed into the ring 21, the side wall of the rubber cleaning seat 3 undergoes a slight inward elastic deformation due to the compression of the inner wall of the ring 21. This deformation generates a huge positive pressure between the contact surfaces of the two, which is then converted into sufficient static friction to overcome the weight of the rubber cleaning seat 3 itself and other slight external forces, thereby achieving a stable and reliable snapping and fixing. Example 4
[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment further specifies that a groove 22 is formed at the center of the inner side of the bottom of the cup lid 2. A spring 24 is installed at the bottom of the inner side of the groove 22, and a rubber stopper 23 is connected to one end of the spring 24. The diameter of the rubber stopper 23 matches the opening diameter of the groove 22. When the rubber stopper 23 compresses the spring 24, it can extend deep into the interior of the groove 22. In the initial state, the rubber stopper 23 is flush with the opening of the groove 22. The inner side of the opening of the groove 22 is provided with an internal thread, and the connecting rod 12 is provided with a matching external thread corresponding to this end. One end of the connecting rod 12 extends into the groove 22. The rubber stopper 23 is squeezed and the spring 24 is compressed, and then it is threadedly connected to the inner side of the groove 22. The bottom center of the rubber cleaning seat 3 is provided with a threaded hole 31. The corresponding end of the connecting rod 12 is provided with an external threaded post that matches the threaded hole 31 of the rubber cleaning seat 3 and is threadedly connected to it. When the connecting rod 12 is connected to the groove 22, its end will naturally squeeze and push the rubber stopper 23, exposing the threaded interface, thereby completing a firm threaded connection with the cup lid 2. The other end of the connecting rod 12 is threadedly connected to the rubber cleaning seat 3, which makes it convenient for the user to install and remove the rubber cleaning seat 3.
[0026] Working principle: When using this ceramic cup, first remove the rubber sealing plug on the top of the storage compartment 11 and take out the connecting rod 12 inside. Then, rotate and connect one end of the connecting rod 12 to the threaded hole 31 at the bottom center of the rubber cleaning seat 3 and tighten it. Then, align the other end of the connecting rod 12 with the opening of the groove 22 at the bottom center of the cup lid 2 and press it down with a little force to push the rubber plug 23 into the groove 22. At this time, rotate the connecting rod 12 to make it engage with the internal thread and tighten it, thereby completing the installation of the entire cleaning mechanism. After installation, the user holds the cup lid 2 and inserts the rubber cleaning seat 3 into the ceramic cup 1. By rotating, lifting up and down, and sliding the cup lid 2 back and forth, the user can drive the rubber cleaning seat 3 to thoroughly wipe the inner wall and bottom of the ceramic cup 1. Its arc design can fit the cup wall well and achieve cleaning without dead corners. The whole process does not require the user to put their hand into the cup. After use, rotate the connecting rod 12 in the opposite direction to separate it from the groove 22 at the bottom of the cup lid 2. After the connecting rod 12 is removed, the compressed spring 24 immediately rebounds, pushing the rubber stopper 23 back to its original position, so that its top is flush with the opening of the groove 22 again, automatically resealing the interface to prevent dirt from entering. Then, separate the connecting rod 12 from the rubber cleaning seat 3, and put the rubber cleaning seat 3 back into the ring 21 at the bottom of the cup lid 2 for storage. After wiping the connecting rod 12 clean, put it back into the storage compartment 11 and tighten it with the rubber sealing plug to complete the storage, thereby effectively improving the convenience of cleaning ceramic cups.
[0027] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.
[0028] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
