[0067] Common liquid containers, such as kettles, consist of a body with a spout at the top. A stopper is housed in the spout, and the stopper is threaded to the inner wall of the spout. Existing push-button stoppers eliminate the need to open the lid or remove the stopper; liquid is poured out by pressing the handle. However, these stoppers require the user to continuously press the handle to pour, which is inconvenient. Furthermore, prolonged pressure on the handle can shorten the lifespan of the stopper.

[0068] This utility model proposes a press-type kettle stopper.

[0069] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, the press-type kettle stopper is used to install at the mouth of the kettle body. The press-type kettle stopper includes a body 1, a pressing member 2, a lower cover 3, a lifting seat 4, a transmission member 8, and a retaining member. The body 1 has a water flow channel 11, which has an upper outlet 111 and a lower outlet 112. The pressing member 2 is located at the upper end of the body 1 and is rotatably connected to the body 1. The connection between the pressing member 2 and the body 1 is a fulcrum. The pressing member 2 includes a first pressing part 25 and a second pressing part 26 located on both sides of the fulcrum. The lower cover 3 is located at the lower end of the body 1. The lifting seat 4 is located below the pressing member 2, and a fixing structure 41 that is fixedly connected to the lower cover 3 is protruding from the side wall of the lifting seat 4. The transmission component 8 is located between the lifting seat 4 and the pressing component 2, with both ends of the transmission component 8 movably connected to the lifting seat 4 and the pressing component 2, respectively. When the first pressing part 25 is pressed, the transmission component 8 rotates and pushes the lifting seat 4 downward. When the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the transmission component 8 drives the lower cover 3 upward. After the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the retaining member keeps the rotation angle of the pressing component 2 unchanged.

[0070] In the technical solution of this utility model, the pressing member 2 is provided with a first pressing part 25 and a second pressing part 26 located on both sides of the fulcrum. By pressing the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2, the pressing member 2 can be controlled to rotate around the fulcrum, thereby causing the transmission member 8 to rotate and push the lifting seat 4 to move downward. The lifting seat 4 can drive the lower cover 3 to move away from the lower end of the body 1 to open the lower water outlet 112. At this time, the liquid in the kettle can be poured out of the kettle from the water flow channel 11. By pressing the second pressing part 26, the second pressing part 26 can simultaneously control the pressing member 2 to rotate around the fulcrum, thereby causing the transmission member 8 to rotate and pull the lifting seat 4 to move upward. The lifting seat 4 can drive the lower cover 3 to move closer to the upper end of the body 1 to close the lower water outlet 112. After the first pressing part 25 is pressed, the retaining member keeps the rotation angle of the pressing part 2 unchanged, thereby keeping the height of the lifting seat 4 unchanged and the height of the lower cover 3 unchanged, thus keeping the lower water outlet 112 in the open state. After the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the retaining member keeps the rotation angle of the pressing part 2 unchanged, thereby keeping the height of the lifting seat 4 unchanged and keeping the lower water outlet 112 in the closed state. Therefore, this utility model allows users to open the water outlet by pressing one side of the pressing part 2 when they need to pour water, and close the water outlet by pressing the other side of the pressing part 2 when they do not need to pour water, preventing dust and other foreign objects from entering the kettle body. Compared with the prior art, it is convenient to operate and does not require continuous pressing of one side of the pressing part 2, avoiding damage to the internal components of the press-type kettle stopper and extending the service life of the press-type kettle stopper.

[0071] The push-button stopper is used to install on the kettle. The push-button stopper can be directly inserted into the kettle's opening, with its outer circumference abutting against the inner circumference of the opening, thus securing the stopper in place. Alternatively, the push-button stopper may have external threads on its outer side, allowing it to be installed into the kettle's opening via a threaded connection.

[0072] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 9The body 1 has an inner cavity, and inside the body 1 is a mounting cavity 12. The mounting cavity 12 is located within the inner cavity of the body 1, and its upper side is open. The water flow channel 11 is located outside the mounting cavity 12, and its lower end passes through the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1 to form the lower water outlet 112. The pressing member 2 is rotatably mounted in the inner cavity of the body 1, and at least a portion of the pressing member 2 is located within the inner cavity of the body 1, reducing the volume ratio of the pressing-type kettle stopper. The cross-sectional size of the inner cavity of the body 1 gradually increases from bottom to top, ensuring sufficient space within the inner cavity of the body 1.

[0073] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The pressing member 2 has a first mounting portion 29, and the lifting seat 4 has a second mounting portion 43, the second mounting portion 43 being located on the side of the first mounting portion 29 near the second pressing portion 26; one end of the transmission member 8 is rotatably disposed on the first mounting portion 29 about an axis extending in a first direction, and the other end is rotatably disposed on the second mounting portion 43 about an axis extending in a first direction; when the first pressing portion 25 is pressed, the transmission member 8 rotates and moves downward to push the lifting seat 4 downward; when the second pressing portion 26 is pressed, the transmission member 8 rotates and moves upward to pull the lifting seat 4 upward.

[0074] When the first pressing part 25 is pressed down, the first mounting part 29 moves down, which causes the upper end of the transmission member 8 to move down, and the distance between the first mounting part 29 and the second mounting part 43 in the horizontal direction decreases, causing the transmission member 8 to rotate, and causing the included angle between the transmission member 8 and the vertical axis to gradually decrease, causing the entire transmission member 8 and its lower end to move down, and the transmission member 8 can push the lifting seat 4 to move down.

[0075] When the second pressing part 26 is pressed down, the first mounting part 29 moves upward, which causes the upper end of the transmission member 8 to move upward, and the distance between the first mounting part 29 and the second mounting part 43 in the horizontal direction increases, causing the transmission member 8 to rotate, and causing the included angle between the transmission member 8 and the vertical axis to gradually increase, causing the entire transmission member 8 and its upper end to move upward, and the transmission member 8 can pull the lifting seat 4 upward.

[0076] The first direction is horizontal and perpendicular to the lifting direction of the lifting seat 4. Specifically, the first direction is perpendicular to the axis of the body 1. The pressing member 2, the lifting seat 4, and the transmission member 8 are all located within the inner cavity of the body 1. The pressing member 2, the lifting seat 4, and the transmission member 8 can all be made of plastic or metal, and are not limited here. The first mounting part 29 is located on the lower side of the pressing member 2, and the second mounting part 43 is located on the upper side of the lifting seat 4. The first mounting part 29 can be a groove or a protrusion in the pressing member 2, and the second mounting part 43 can be a groove or a protrusion in the lifting seat 4. The first mounting part 29 and the second mounting part 43 can be located on the same side of the fulcrum or on opposite sides of the fulcrum. When both the first mounting portion 29 and the second mounting portion 43 are located on the side of the fulcrum closer to the first pressing portion 25, the second mounting portion 43 is located on the side of the first mounting portion 29 closer to the second pressing portion 26, and the first mounting portion 29 is located on the side of the second mounting portion 43 closer to the first pressing portion 25; when both the first mounting portion 29 and the second mounting portion 43 are located on the side of the fulcrum closer to the second pressing portion 26, the first mounting portion 29 is located on the side of the second mounting portion 43 closer to the first pressing portion 25; when the first mounting portion 29 is located on the side of the fulcrum closer to the first pressing portion 25, the second mounting portions 43 are all located on the side of the fulcrum closer to the second pressing portion 26.

[0077] The transmission component 8 includes at least two transmission rods 81, which are arranged sequentially along a first direction and are parallel to each other. One end of each transmission rod 81 is rotatably mounted on the first mounting portion 29 about an axis extending along the first direction, and the other end is rotatably mounted on the second mounting portion 43 about an axis extending along the first direction. The rotation axes of any identical ends of the at least two transmission rods 81 are coaxial. By providing two or more transmission components 8, the other transmission rods 81 can remain operational even if one transmission rod 81 fails, ensuring the long-term use of the press-type stopper.

[0078] Specifically, there are two transmission rods 81. The material of the transmission rods 81 can be plastic or alloy, and there is no limitation on this; the number of transmission rods 81 can also be three, four or more, and there is no limitation on this.

[0079] The transmission component 8 further includes at least one connecting rod 82, which extends along an axis extending in a first direction, and connects at least two transmission rods 81. Connecting at least two transmission rods 81 via the connecting rod 82 ensures synchronous rotation between the at least two transmission rods 81, improving the stability of the lifting seat 4 during lifting.

[0080] The connecting rod 82 is provided as a single unit. The connecting rod 82 can be made of plastic or metal, and the connecting rod 82 is integrally connected with the transmission rod 81 to ensure the structural strength between the connecting rod 82 and the transmission rod 81. The connecting rod 82 and the transmission rod 81 can also be detachably connected, which is not limited here.

[0081] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pressing member 2 has a clearance groove 21, the body 1 has an ear plate 13, the ear plate 13 is located in the clearance groove 21, the ear plate 13 has a rotating hole 131, and a rotating rod 211 is provided on the groove wall of the clearance groove 21, the rotating rod 211 is located in the rotating hole 131. By providing the rotating hole 131 and the rotating rod 211, the pressing member 2 can be rotated and installed; at the same time, by providing the clearance groove 21, interference between the ear plate 13 and the pressing member 2 is avoided when the pressing member 2 rotates.

[0082] Two ear plates 13 are correspondingly provided on both sides of the body 1, and two clearance grooves 21 and two rotating rods 211 are correspondingly provided. The two rotating rods 211 are coaxial, ensuring the stability of the rotation of the body 1. The ear plates 13 are provided on the inner side wall of the body 1.

[0083] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 9 and Figure 4 The pressing member 2 includes an upper pressing member 2 and a lower pressing member 2, both of which are recessed downwards. The upper pressing member 2 is located above the lower pressing member 2. The lower pressing member 2 has a relief groove 21 on its periphery, and the rotating rod 211 is located on the bottom wall of the relief groove 21. The upper pressing member 2 has a blocking part 24 on its periphery, which corresponds to the relief groove 21, thus reducing the exposure of the ear plate 13. By setting the pressing member 2 as an upper pressing member 2 and a lower pressing member 2, the upper pressing member 2 can be installed after the lower pressing member 2 is rotatably installed on the body 1.

[0084] The body 1 extends along a first direction, and the fulcrum includes the rotating rod 211; the rotating rod 211 extends along a second direction, that is, the rotation axis of the pressing member 2 extends along the second direction. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other, which can reduce the interference between the pressing member 2 and the inner cavity of the body 1, so as to ensure the rotation range of the pressing member 2.

[0085] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the upper side of the body 1 includes a first supporting section 14 and a second supporting section 15 located on both sides of the fulcrum; when the first pressing part 25 is pressed, the first pressing part 25 adheres to the first supporting section 14; when the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the second pressing part 26 adheres to the second supporting section 15.

[0086] In this way, when the lower outlet 112 of the press-type kettle stopper is kept open or closed, the rotation of the pressing member 2 can be limited by the contact between the first support section 14 and the second support section 15.

[0087] Furthermore, the second pressing part 26 is provided corresponding to the upper water outlet 111. When the lower water outlet 112 is kept closed, the second pressing part 26 adheres to the second supporting section 15 and covers the upper water outlet 111 to reduce dust accumulation on the upper water outlet 111. When the lower water outlet 112 is open, the first pressing part 25 adheres to the first supporting section 14, keeping the upper water outlet 111 open.

[0088] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pressing member 2 further includes a blocking portion 27 formed by the edge of the first pressing portion 25 extending toward the first supporting section 14. By providing the blocking portion 27, when the second pressing portion 26 is pressed down, the blocking portion 27 can abut against the inner wall of the body 1, thereby covering the internal structure of the body 1, which is both aesthetically pleasing and prevents foreign objects from entering the body 1.

[0089] In one embodiment of this utility model, in order to guide the lifting of the lifting seat 4, the main body 1 is provided with a mounting cavity 12. The lifting seat 4 and the mounting cavity 12 each have a limiting slider 42 in one and a sliding groove 121 extending along the axis of the main body 1 in the other. The limiting slider 42 is located within the sliding groove 121. Through the cooperation of the sliding groove 121 and the limiting slider 42, the lifting of the lifting seat 4 can be guided.

[0090] Specifically, the main body 1 has a hollow structure, and a guide plate 122 protrudes from the inner bottom wall of the main body 1. The guide plate 122 is arranged around the axis of the main body 1 to form a mounting cavity 12, in which the lifting seat 4 and the limiting slider 42 are located. The guide plate 122 forms the sliding groove 121, and the limiting slider 42 is integrally connected to the lifting seat 4, thus guiding the lifting seat 4. Two sliding grooves 121 and two sliders are arranged on opposite sides of the lifting seat 4 to ensure the stability of the lifting of the lifting seat 4.

[0091] The fixing structure 41 is a protrusion fixed to the periphery of the lifting seat 4. A transmission column 31 protrudes from the upper side of the lower cover 3, with two transmission columns 31 extending vertically. Two first through holes are provided on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1, and the two transmission columns 31 slide through the two first through holes respectively. The upper ends of the transmission columns 31 are connected to the fixing structure 41 by snap-fit ​​or other detachable connection methods. When the lifting seat 4 rises and falls, the transmission columns 31 drive the lower cover 3 to rise or fall synchronously. The presence of two or more transmission columns 31 improves the stability of the connection between the fixing structure 41 and the lower cover 3.

[0092] The lower cover 3 includes an annular seat 32 and an inner sealing ring 33. The inner sealing ring 33 is fixed inside the annular seat 32 by a snap-fit ​​mechanism. An outer sealing ring 16 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the bottom side of the body 1. Both the outer sealing ring 16 and the inner sealing ring 33 are made of flexible material, such as food-grade rubber. The lower outlet 112 is located between the outer sealing ring 16 and the inner sealing ring 33. When the lower cover 3 moves upward, the outer periphery of the annular seat 32 abuts against the outer sealing ring 16, and the inner sealing ring 33 abuts against the bottom side of the body 1, thereby closing the lower outlet 112.

[0093] The two first perforations are located on the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1 of the guide plate 122, and the two transmission columns 31 are fixedly connected to the annular seat 32. At the same time, the two transmission columns 31 are located between the outer sealing ring 16 and the inner sealing ring 33, which can prevent water leakage from the first perforations.

[0094] In one embodiment of this utility model, the press-type kettle stopper further includes a thermometer 5, which includes a probe 51 that passes sequentially through the press member 2, the body 1, and the lower cover 3. The press member 2 has a clearance hole 28 through which the probe 51 passes. The clearance hole 28 is elliptical in shape. The thermometer 5 allows for the detection of the water temperature, and during the rotation of the press member 2, the clearance hole 28 avoids the probe 51.

[0095] The thermometer 5 also includes a display device 52, which is located above the pressing member 2 and connected to the upper end of the probe 51, capable of displaying the water temperature. The display device 52 can be an electronic display or a temperature dial. Further, the upper pressing member 2 includes a receiving groove 2b, in which the display device 52 is housed. The receiving groove 2b is recessed into the upper side of the pressing member 2.

[0096] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 9 The thermometer 5 includes a display device 52. At least one of the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2 and the lower sidewall of the display device 52 is provided with a supporting protrusion 7, forming a clearance space 6 between the lower sidewall of the display device 52 and the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2. When the pressing member 2 rotates, the lower sidewall of the display device 52 avoids the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2. The supporting protrusion 7 supports the display device 52, ensuring the clearance space 6. When the pressing member 2 rotates, the upper side of the pressing member 2 can move within the clearance space 6, preventing contact between the pressing member 2 and the display device 52 and ensuring the rotation of the pressing member 2.

[0097] The support protrusion 7 includes two first support protrusions 717, both of which are located on the upper sidewall of the pressing member 2 and within the receiving groove 2b. The two first support protrusions 717 are respectively located on opposite sides of the clearance hole 28, providing support for the display device 52 and creating a clearance space 6 around the two first support protrusions 717.

[0098] The support protrusion 7 also includes a second support protrusion 727, which is located in the central area of ​​the lower side of the display device 52. The second support protrusion 727 can support the display device 52, so that a clearance space 6 is formed around the second support protrusion 727.

[0099] The first support protrusion 717 abuts against the second support protrusion 727, further increasing the height of the clearance space 6.

[0100] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 9 and Figure 5The thermometer 5 includes a display device 52. A receiving groove 2b is formed on the upper side of the pressing member 2. At least a portion of the display device 52 is disposed within the receiving groove 2b. The cross-sectional size of the display device 52 gradually decreases from bottom to top, and the opening size of the receiving groove 2b gradually decreases from bottom to top. When the first pressing portion 25 or the second pressing portion 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the periphery of the display device 52 abuts against the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b.

[0101] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 When the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the display device 52 can block the area within the receiving groove 2b. By setting the opening size of the receiving groove 2b to gradually decrease from bottom to top, the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b can avoid the peripheral wall of the display device 52 when the pressing member 2 rotates.

[0102] In one embodiment, the horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is circular, and the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is located within the receiving groove 2b. When the pressing member 2 is placed horizontally, the horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b can be elliptical (a circle is an ellipse with equal minor and major radii). The centers of any two horizontal cross-sections of the receiving groove 2b coincide, the minor radii of any two horizontal cross-sections of the receiving groove 2b are equal, the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is not greater than the major radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b, and the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is not greater than the minor radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b.

[0103] The uppermost horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b is the smallest, and the uppermost horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b is circular. The radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is equal to the major radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b, and the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52 is equal to the minor radius of the smallest horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b. When the pressing member 2 is placed horizontally, it is convenient to place the display device 52 into the receiving groove 2b. At the same time, when the pressing member 2 rotates, the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b can avoid the peripheral sidewall of the display device 52.

[0104] The display device 52 includes a first peripheral segment located near the first pressing part 25 and a second peripheral segment located near the second pressing part 26. When the first pressing part 25 or the second pressing part 26 is pressed down, the first peripheral segment and the second peripheral segment abut against the two opposite inner sidewalls of the receiving groove 2b. Since the long radius of the horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b, except for the smallest horizontal cross-section, is larger than the radius of the largest horizontal cross-section of the display device 52, the inner wall of the receiving groove 2b can avoid the display device 52 when the pressing member 2 rotates. At the same time, the display device 52 can shield the interior of the receiving groove 2b. When the pressing member 2 rotates, the horizontal cross-section of the receiving groove 2b provides space in the direction of its long radius to avoid the peripheral sidewall of the display device 52.

[0105] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The bottom wall of the inner cavity of the main body 1 is threadedly connected to an installation tube 17. A sealing ring 171 is provided inside the installation tube 17. The probe 51 passes through the sealing ring 171 and the inner sealing ring 33 to prevent water leakage between the probe 51 and the installation tube 17. The probe 51 passes through the installation tube 17, which is located within the installation cavity 12 formed by the guide plate 122. The lifting seat 4 is flexibly mounted on the installation tube 17.

[0106] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The retaining member includes an elastic telescopic member 9; one of the pressing member 2 and the body 1 includes a third mounting portion and the other includes a fourth mounting portion; one end of the elastic telescopic member 9 is rotatably connected to the third mounting portion, and the other end of the elastic telescopic member 9 is limited by the fourth mounting portion; or, one end of the elastic telescopic member 9 is rotatably connected to the third mounting portion, and the other end of the elastic telescopic member 9 is rotatably connected to the fourth mounting portion; when the first pressing portion 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the elastic telescopic member 9 tilts towards the second pressing portion 26 of the pressing member 2; when the second pressing portion 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed, the elastic telescopic member 9 tilts towards the first pressing portion 25.

[0107] When the lifting seat 4 moves downward, it causes the lower cover 3 to move downward, thereby moving the lower cover 3 away from the lower end of the main body 1. When the first pressing part 25 of the pressing member 2 is pressed down, and the elastic telescopic member 9 tilts towards the second pressing part 26 of the pressing member 2, the elastic telescopic member 9 elastically extends, driving the second pressing part 26 upward to keep the first pressing part 25 in a pressed state. When the second pressing part 26 of the pressing member 2 is pressed down, and the elastic telescopic member 9 tilts towards the first pressing part 25, the elastic telescopic member 9 elastically extends, driving the first pressing part 25 upward to keep the second pressing part 26 in a pressed state.

[0108] Furthermore, when the upper end of the elastic telescopic member 9 rotates to the other side of the fulcrum, pressing the first pressing part 25 causes the elastic telescopic member 9 to extend and drive the second pressing part 26 to move upward, thereby accelerating the downward movement of the first pressing part 25. This increases the sound when the first pressing part 25 touches the upper side of the body 1, serving as a prompting sound to remind the user that the lower outlet 112 of the water flow channel 11 remains in the normally open state and there is no need to continuously press the first pressing part 25.

[0109] After the water is poured out, by pressing the second pressing part 26, when the upper end of the elastic telescopic member 9 rotates to the other side of the fulcrum, the elastic telescopic member 9 drives the first pressing part 25 to move upward, thereby accelerating the downward movement of the second pressing part 26. This increases the sound when the second pressing part 26 touches the upper side of the body 1, serving as a prompting sound to remind the user that the lower outlet 112 of the water flow channel 11 remains in a normally closed state and there is no need to continuously press the second pressing part 26.

[0110] The elastic telescopic member 9 includes a positioning rod 91 and an elastic member 92 sleeved on the positioning rod 91; one end of the positioning rod 91 is provided with a limiting part, and the limiting part is movably connected to the third mounting part; wherein, the fourth mounting part includes a limiting cavity 18, and the end of the positioning rod 91 away from the limiting part is located in the limiting cavity 18.

[0111] The limiting cavity 18 can limit the positioning rod 91, reducing the risk of the positioning rod 91 disengaging from the limiting cavity 18. This ensures the tilting of the elastic telescopic member 9.

[0112] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8The elastic telescopic member 9 includes a positioning rod 91 and an elastic member 92 sleeved on the positioning rod 91; one end of the positioning rod 91 is provided with a limiting part, and the limiting part is movably connected to the third mounting part; the fourth mounting part includes a mounting protrusion 19, and one end of the elastic member 92 away from the limiting part is sleeved on the mounting protrusion 19.

[0113] By fitting the elastic element 92 onto the mounting protrusion 19, the mounting protrusion 19 can avoid separation from the elastic element 92 when the elastic telescopic element 9 is tilted.

[0114] The mounting protrusion 19 is located inside the limiting cavity 18, the elastic element 92 is a first spring, the third mounting part is provided on the pressing member 2, the fourth mounting part is provided on the inner wall of the body 1, the fourth mounting part is located directly below the fulcrum of the holding member, and the fourth mounting part can move to both sides of the fulcrum during the rotation path of the holding member.

[0115] The elastic element 92 is a first spring sleeved on the positioning rod 91. The end of the positioning rod 91 away from the elastic element 92 protrudes circumferentially to abut against the first spring. The third mounting part includes a mounting groove 2a provided on the bottom side of the pressing member. The end of the positioning rod 91 away from the elastic element 92 is located in the mounting groove 2a and is rotatably connected to the pressing member. The rotation axis of the positioning rod 91 is parallel to the rotation axis of the pressing member.

[0116] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The press-type stopper includes a return member 10 located below the lifting seat 4. When the second pressing part 26 is pressed, the return member 10 pushes the lifting seat 4 upward. The return member 10 applies an upward thrust to the lifting seat 4.

[0117] In one embodiment of this utility model, the recovery member 10 abuts against the lower side of the lifting seat 4; the recovery member 10 provides a restoring force, causing the lifting seat 4 to move upward within the body 1 along the axial direction of the body 1, thereby driving the lower cover 3 to move towards the lower end of the body 1.

[0118] By applying a restoring force to the lifting seat 4 through the restoring component 10, when the pressure on the lifting seat 4 is upward, the lifting seat 4 can cause the lower cover 3 to move upward.

[0119] The recovery component 10 includes a recovery spring. The lower end of the recovery spring abuts against the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the body 1, and the upper end abuts against the lower side of the lifting seat 4, so as to apply an upward pressure to the lifting seat 4. The recovery spring is sleeved on the mounting tube 17, which can ensure that the recovery spring undergoes elastic deformation in the vertical direction.
