Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of cup lid technology, specifically relating to a convenient cup lid and cup. Background Technology
[0002] Coffee and milk tea are everyday drinks. To make them convenient to take away, cups containing coffee or milk tea are equipped with lids to prevent spills and make them easier to drink.
[0003] Most coffee and milk tea cup lids currently have a drinking spout and a straw inlet. The drinking spout has a separate plug, but the plug is separately connected to the lid, making it inconvenient to store after removal and easy to lose. The straw inlet has a thin-walled sealing piece added during the injection molding of the lid body, making it easier for the straw to pierce the sealing piece and pass through the straw inlet. However, when the straw inlet is broken, the lid loses its seal, and the coffee or milk tea will leak out when the user tries to use the drinking spout. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology by proposing a convenient cup lid and cup that is simple in structure, has good sealing performance, and can quickly switch between direct drinking and straw use, thus meeting the needs of different users.
[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved by addressing the following technical problem: providing a convenient cup lid, comprising a lid body and a connecting piece, wherein the connecting piece is movably connected to the bottom edge of the lid body, wherein:
[0006] The cup lid body is provided with a drinking spout and a straw inlet near its radial ends, and a heat dissipation groove is provided between the drinking spout and the straw inlet near the middle of the cup lid body.
[0007] The connecting piece includes a first piece, a second piece, and a third piece that are connected to each other. The first piece is connected to the cup lid body and has a tear portion that allows the first piece to be folded relative to the cup lid body. The second piece is movably pressed against the opening of the heat dissipation groove. The third piece is movably inserted into the drinking spout.
[0008] When the first piece extends to the straw inlet and the third piece is inserted into the drinking spout, the first piece can be folded separately relative to the cup lid body due to the tear, so that the straw can extend into the straw inlet.
[0009] In the aforementioned convenient cup lid, the first piece also includes a folding part and a guiding part connected to each other. The folding part is connected to the cup lid body, and the cup lid body has a guiding groove. The guiding part is movably fitted into the guiding groove to guide the second piece and the third piece to align with the heat dissipation groove and the drinking spout, respectively.
[0010] In the aforementioned convenient cup lid, a deformable part is also connected between the folding part and the guide part.
[0011] In the aforementioned convenient cup lid, the first piece also includes a tear piece, which forms the tear portion between the tear piece and the first piece, and an annular piston block is provided on the tear piece, which is movably engaged with the straw inlet.
[0012] In the aforementioned convenient cup lid, a snap-fit block is formed at the end of the tear piece, and a snap-fit groove is provided on the inner wall of the guide groove, with the snap-fit block movably snapped into the snap-fit groove.
[0013] In the aforementioned convenient cup lid, a fastening block is provided on the second piece, and a first heat dissipation hole and a second heat dissipation hole are respectively provided on the fastening block and the heat dissipation groove.

[0016] In the aforementioned convenient cup lid, there is a height difference between the third piece and the second piece.
[0017] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is to also provide a cup, including one of the above-mentioned convenient cup lids.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] (1) The present invention provides a convenient cup lid and cup. Through the structural design of the tear part, the user can selectively fold only the first piece to facilitate the insertion of a straw. At the same time, the straw insertion can be sealed again by the annular piston block to facilitate the smoothness and stability of the user when using the direct drinking spout. The overall structure is simple and effectively realizes the quick switching between "direct drinking mode" and "straw mode", improving the flexibility and convenience of use, and also meeting the needs of different users.
[0020] (2) A deformation section is provided between the folding section and the guiding section, which can effectively absorb the stress of the connecting plate during the folding or sliding process and prevent breakage or deformation. At the same time, the presence of the deformation section also increases the flexibility of the connecting plate, further improving the durability of the structure and the comfort of use.
[0021] (3) The design of the buckle block and buckle groove allows the tear piece to be securely embedded in the guide groove when not in use, preventing misoperation or accidental detachment; when the straw insertion port is needed, it can be easily torn off with force, which improves the safety and controllability of the product, and also enhances the overall coordination and aesthetics of the structure.

Detailed Implementation
[0026] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0027] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, this solution mainly describes a convenient cup lid for use on cups. However, this convenient cup lid is not limited to use in coffee cups or milk tea cups, but can also be applied to other places, such as the structure of insulated cups in daily life.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a convenient cup lid includes a lid body 1 and a connecting piece 2. The connecting piece 2 is movably connected to the bottom edge of the lid body 1. The lid body 1 has a drinking spout 10 and a straw inlet 11 near its radial ends. A heat dissipation groove 12 is provided between the drinking spout 10 and the straw inlet 11 near the middle of the lid body 1. The connecting piece 2 includes a first piece 20, a second piece 21, and a third piece 22 connected to each other. The first piece 20 is connected to the lid. The main body 1 has a tear 200 on the first piece 20, which allows the first piece 20 to be folded relative to the cup lid body 1; the second piece 21 is movably pressed against the opening of the heat dissipation groove 12; the third piece 22 is movably inserted into the drinking spout 10; when the first piece 20 extends to the straw insertion port 11, and the third piece 22 is inserted into the drinking spout 10, the first piece 20 can be folded relative to the cup lid body 1 by the tear 200, so that the straw can be inserted into the straw insertion port 11.
[0030] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting piece 2 can be positioned relative to the cup lid body 1 along... Figure 1Flip the lid clockwise onto the cup body 1 until the first piece 20 seals the straw inlet 11, the second piece 21 blocks the heat dissipation groove 12, and the third piece 22 extends into the drinking spout 10, ensuring that the coffee or milk tea in the cup will not spill out. When the user wishes to drink directly, the user can pull the third piece 22 out of the drinking spout 10, at which point the drinking spout 10 is open, and the user can drink directly through the spout. It is worth noting that the second piece 21 is still attached to the heat dissipation groove 12 at this time to prevent dust and impurities from entering, and the first piece 20 remains in its original position without needing to be folded (that is, the first piece 20 always maintains a seal on the straw inlet 11). If the user wishes to drink with a straw, the third piece 22 can be inserted into the drinking spout 10 to ensure that beverages such as coffee or milk tea will not flow out of the spout. Due to the presence of the tear 200, the user can easily fold the first piece 20 upwards along the tear 200 to provide sufficient space for the straw to be inserted into the straw inlet 11 (at this time, the second piece 21 still covers the heat dissipation groove 12). It is worth noting that folding the first piece 20 does not mean that it has been detached from the connecting piece 2, but that it remains connected. Therefore, if a user wants to use the drinking spout 10 again after using the straw, they can simply fold it back (this is a reset action) to reseal the first piece 20 around the straw inlet 11. This design facilitates quick switching between "direct drinking mode" and "straw mode," enhancing flexibility and convenience while meeting the needs of different users. Furthermore, it allows users to reseal the lid after using both the drinking spout 10 and the straw inlet 11, greatly improving portability. In addition, the linkage design between the connecting piece 2 and the lid body 1 enhances the overall structural integrity and stability.
[0031] The first piece 20 also includes a folding part 201 and a guide part 202 connected to each other. The folding part 201 is connected to the cup lid body 1. The cup lid body 1 has a guide groove 13. The guide part 202 is movably fitted into the guide groove 13 to guide the second piece 21 and the third piece 22 to align with the heat dissipation groove 12 and the drinking spout 10, respectively.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, the folding part 201 and the cup lid body 1 are integrally injection molded. The entire structure of the connecting piece 2 can be folded over the cup lid body 1 by means of the folding part 201. In other words, the folding part 201 provides sufficient space for the folding of the connecting piece 2, avoiding incomplete folding that would affect the sealing of the cup lid body 1. The design of the guide part 202 guides and limits the folding action of the connecting piece 2. Through the cooperation design of the guide part 202 and the guide groove 13, the connecting piece 2 maintains a stable movement trajectory during the folding process, effectively guiding the second piece 21 and the third piece 22 to accurately align with the heat dissipation groove 12 and the drinking spout 10, respectively, avoiding misalignment or mis-sealing. Therefore, this structure improves the guidance and accuracy of the connecting piece 2 during movement, avoiding problems such as poor sealing or inconvenience caused by misalignment, and enhancing the reliability of the product and the user experience.
[0033] Preferably, in this embodiment, a deformable part 203 is also connected between the folding part 201 and the guide part 202, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the deformation part 203 can effectively absorb the stress of the connecting piece 2 during the folding process, preventing breakage or deformation due to excessive material rigidity. At the same time, the presence of the deformation part 203 also increases the flexibility of the connecting piece 2, making it easier to operate under different usage conditions, and further improving the durability and comfort of the structure.
[0034] The first piece 20 also includes a tear piece 204, which forms a tear 200 between the tear piece 204 and the first piece 20. An annular piston block 204a is provided on the tear piece 204, and the annular piston block 204a is movably engaged with the straw insertion port 11.
[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, one end of the tear piece 204 is connected to the first piece 20, while the other parts are separated from the first piece 20 to form the required tear portion 200. Therefore, when the first piece 20, along with the folding portion 201 and the guide portion, tightly embeds the annular piston block 204a into the straw inlet 11, forming a sealed cover for the straw inlet 11, it effectively prevents leakage of beverages such as coffee or milk tea or the entry of external contaminants, thus providing sufficient stability for the user to drink water through the drinking spout 10. When the user wants to switch to straw drinking mode, the third piece 22 can be fastened back to the drinking spout 10. Due to the presence of the tear portion 200, when the tear piece 204 is subjected to external force (such as manual pulling), the tear piece 204 can be folded relative to the first piece 20 along the tear portion 200 (i.e., the area of the tear portion 200 gradually increases), thereby disengaging the annular movable block from the straw inlet 11, making it convenient for the user to insert a straw for drinking. It is worth noting that the tear piece 204 remains connected to the first piece 20 after the folding action (similar to the tear piece 204 being perpendicular to the first piece 20). This design helps the user to fold the tear piece 204 again when switching back to the direct drinking mode, thereby tightly fastening the annular piston block 204a to the straw inlet 11, forming a good sealing structure, while taking into account both ease of use and safety.
[0036] The end of the tear piece 204 is also formed with a snap-fit block 204b, and the inner wall of the guide groove 13 is provided with a snap-fit groove 130, in which the snap-fit block 204b is movably snapped into the snap-fit groove 130.
[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, when the folding part 201 and the guide part drive the second piece 21 and the third piece 22 to accurately fall onto the cup lid body 1, the engagement of the snap block 204b with the snap groove 130 ensures that the tear piece 204 has a clear positioning point in the closed state, preventing accidental folding or misalignment caused by slight external force and ensuring that the connecting piece 2 is always in a stable position. Moreover, this snap structure enhances the connection strength between the tear piece 204 and the guide groove 13, and also facilitates the user in performing the folding operation of the tear piece 204, improving the intuitiveness of the operation and user satisfaction.
[0038] The second piece 21 has a fastening block 210, and the fastening block 210 and the heat dissipation groove 12 have a first heat dissipation hole 210a and a second heat dissipation hole 120, respectively. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this structure helps to accelerate the flow of hot air and improve heat dissipation efficiency. This design not only enhances the ventilation performance of the lid but also effectively prevents heat buildup that could cause burns, thus improving the safety and comfort of the product when holding hot beverages.
[0039] Preferably, the third piece 22 is also provided with a sealing part 220 that engages with the drinking spout 10. The sealing part 220 can be tightly engaged with the drinking spout 10, thereby effectively sealing the drinking spout 10 when not in use, preventing liquid leakage or dust from entering. This structure is simple and practical, improves the sealing performance and hygiene safety of the cup lid, and is easy to carry and store.
[0040] Preferably, the heat dissipation groove 12 is also provided with a baffle plate 121 located between the first heat dissipation hole 210a and the second heat dissipation hole 120. The baffle plate 121 can effectively guide the airflow direction, prevent liquid from overflowing from the heat dissipation hole, and improve heat dissipation efficiency. This design takes into account both safety and functionality, and further optimizes the performance of the cup lid in the use scenario of high-temperature beverages.
[0041] Preferably, there is a height difference between the third piece 22 and the second piece 21, so that they do not interfere with each other during use and ensure that their functions operate independently. For example, opening the drinking port 10 does not affect the normal operation of the heat dissipation slot 12, thus improving the convenience of operation and the rationality of the structural layout.
