Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea canister technology, and more specifically, to a tea canister for filtering tea residue. Background Technology
[0002] Tea residue bins are now available in various styles and are widely used in homes, offices, and various public places. Users simply pour the tea from their cup into the bin to instantly separate the tea from the tea leaves, facilitating subsequent sorting and processing. Then, designated personnel can handle the liquid and tea leaves separately.
[0003] Existing tea residue containers are mostly equipped with perforated baffles. When tea and tea leaves are poured in together, the tea leaves are very easy to get stuck in the perforations. Once adsorption occurs, the perforations become clogged, making subsequent cleaning very troublesome. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides a tea canister for filtering tea residue, solving the technical problem in related technologies where clogged filter holes cause subsequent cleaning difficulties.
[0005] This utility model provides a tea tube for filtering tea residue, including a tube body with an upward opening, a discharge port at the bottom of the tube body, a filter plate slidably fitted inside the tube body, filter holes on the filter plate, and a removal mechanism connected to the filter plate. The removal mechanism includes a removal shaft; The removal shaft has a first position state and a second position state; In the first position state, the removal shaft is located below the filter hole; In the second position state, the removal shaft is located inside the filter hole.
[0006] As a further optimization of this utility model, the removal mechanism also includes a perforated plate, a pull rod, and a return component. The perforated plate is located below the filter plate, the removal shaft is mounted on the perforated plate and is correspondingly arranged with the filter holes, and the pull rod is fixedly fitted in the middle of the filter plate and connected to the perforated plate through the return component.
[0007] As a further optimization of this utility model, the return component includes a spring and a fixed rod. The bottom end of the pull rod forms a receiving groove that is adapted to the fixed rod. One end of the spring is rotatably connected to the receiving groove, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixed rod. The fixed rod is rotatably connected to the middle of the hollow plate.
[0008] As a further optimization of this utility model, a rotating block is rotatably provided inside the receiving groove, and the rotating block is fixedly connected to the end of the spring away from the fixed rod.
[0009] As a further optimization of this utility model, a scraper for scraping the top surface of the filter plate is installed on the outer periphery of the pull rod.
[0010] As a further optimization of this utility model, an overlap edge is formed on the top of the outer periphery of the cylinder.
[0011] As a further optimization of this utility model, the top of the cylinder is covered with a lid.
[0012] As a further optimization of this utility model, the bottom of the cylinder is arranged in a bucket shape.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. The tea canister described in this utility model for filtering tea residue has the following characteristics: during filtration, the removal shaft is initially in the first position below the filter hole, which does not affect the normal penetration of tea water. When the filter hole is blocked, simply press the pull rod to directly push out the blocked residue, thus solving the industry pain point of difficult cleaning after the filter hole is blocked.
[0014] 2. The tea canister for filtering tea residue described in this utility model features a scraper on the outer periphery of a pull rod that fits tightly against the top surface of a filter plate. After filtration, rotating the pull rod allows the scraper to quickly gather the dispersed tea residue, preventing it from scattering and accumulating on the filter plate. This reduces the contact area between the residue and the filter plate, lowering the risk of residue adhesion. The removal mechanism is detachable from the canister. For deep cleaning, the removal mechanism can be directly removed from the canister, allowing for separate rinsing of the filter plate, perforated plate, and removal shaft. This design is particularly suitable for homes, office buildings, and other environments with high cleanliness requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The subject matter described herein will now be discussed with reference to exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are discussed only to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the subject matter described herein, and changes may be made to the function and arrangement of the elements discussed without departing from the scope of this specification. Various processes or components may be omitted, substituted, or added as needed in the examples. Furthermore, features described in some examples may be combined in other examples.
[0020] Example 1 like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, a tea caddy for filtering tea residue according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a cylinder 1 with an upward opening, a discharge port at the bottom of the cylinder 1, a filter plate 2 slidably fitted inside the cylinder 1, a filter hole 201 on the filter plate 2, and an overlay 4 formed on the top of the outer periphery of the cylinder 1.
[0021] When using a tea canister, the support edge 4 is mainly used to stably place the tea canister at the opening (such as a corresponding opening at a sink to place the canister 1 inside). Since the support edge 4 has a certain width and support area, it provides auxiliary support.
[0022] The top of the cylinder 1 is covered with a cover 5; the bottom of the cylinder 1 is shaped like a bucket. A removal mechanism 3 is connected to the filter plate 2; The removal mechanism 3 includes a removal shaft 31; The removal shaft 31 has a first position state and a second position state; In the first position state, the removal shaft 31 is located below the filter hole 201; In the second position, the removal shaft 31 is located inside the filter hole 201.
[0023] The cylinder 1 serves as the main supporting structure of the entire tea canister. Its upward opening is used to pour in the tea and tea leaf mixture, while the bottom outlet is used to discharge the filtered tea. The filter plate 2 is slidably fitted inside the cylinder 1 and can move up and down within the cylinder 1. The filter holes 201 on the filter plate 2 are the core structure for separating the tea and tea leaves. The removal mechanism 3 is directly connected to the filter plate 2, and the removal shaft 31 is a key anti-clogging component in the removal mechanism 3.
[0024] When the tea is filtered, the removal shaft 31 is initially in the first position, that is, below the filter hole 201. At this time, the tea containing tea residue is poured into the opening of the cylinder 1. Under the action of gravity, the tea passes through the filter hole 201 on the filter plate 2 and flows to the bottom of the cylinder 1, and is finally discharged from the outlet. The tea residue is intercepted above the filter plate 2, thus achieving the initial separation of tea and tea.
[0025] As the filtration process proceeds, some small tea leaves may get stuck in the filter holes 201, causing them to become clogged. The removal mechanism 3 can be removed from the cylinder 1. At this time, by operating the removal mechanism 3, the removal shaft 31 is switched from the first position to the second position, that is, it enters the filter hole 201. During the process of entering the filter hole 201, the removal shaft 31 will come into contact with the tea leaves stuck in the hole and generate a squeezing and pushing effect, pushing the tea leaves stuck in the filter hole 201 out of the filter hole 201, so that the filter hole 201 is unobstructed.
[0026] By eliminating the switching between the two position states of shaft 31, the problem of filter hole 201 clogging can be effectively solved, avoiding the trouble of frequently disassembling and cleaning filter plate 2 due to filter hole 201 clogging, thus improving the efficiency and convenience of tea filtration.
[0027] Specifically, the removal mechanism 3 also includes a perforated plate 32, a pull rod 33, and a return component. The perforated plate 32 is located below the filter plate 2. The removal shaft 31 is installed on the perforated plate 32 and is correspondingly set with the filter hole 201. The pull rod 33 is fixedly fitted in the middle of the filter plate 2 and is connected to the perforated plate 32 through the return component.
[0028] In the removal mechanism 3, the perforated plate 32 is located below the filter plate 2. Its main function is to install and fix the removal shaft 31, while the perforated structure design does not obstruct the flow of filtered tea water. The removal shaft 31 is installed on the perforated plate 32 and corresponds one-to-one with the filter holes 201 on the filter plate 2, ensuring that each filter hole 201 has a corresponding removal shaft 31 for anti-clogging operation. The pull rod 33 is fixedly fitted in the middle of the filter plate 2, becoming the force-applying component for the operator to control the action of the removal mechanism 3. The return component is connected between the pull rod 33 and the perforated plate 32 to realize the reset after the removal mechanism 3 is activated.
[0029] By removing the removal mechanism 3 out of the cylinder 1 and pressing down the pull rod 33, the pull rod 33 moves down and drives the filter plate 2 to move down. Since the removal shaft 31 is set to correspond with the filter hole 201, the removal shaft 31 will gradually enter the filter hole 201 and push out the tea residue that is blocked in the hole.
[0030] After the filter hole 201 is cleaned, the operator releases the pressing lever 33. At this time, the return part returns to its original shape under the action of its own elastic force, pushing the filter plate 2 upward, and the removal shaft 31 exits from the filter hole 201, preparing for the next filtration or cleaning operation.
[0031] Specifically, the return component includes a spring 34 and a fixed rod 35. The bottom end of the pull rod 33 forms a receiving groove 331 that is adapted to the fixed rod 35. One end of the spring 34 is rotatably connected to the receiving groove 331, and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 35. The fixed rod 35 is rotatably connected to the middle of the hollow plate 32.
[0032] When the pull rod 33 is pressed down, the pull rod 33 drives the receiving groove 331 to move downward. Since one end of the spring 34 is rotatably connected to the receiving groove 331 and the other end is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 35, the downward movement of the receiving groove 331 compresses the spring 34, causing the spring 34 to undergo elastic deformation. At the same time, the fixed rod 35 continuously enters the receiving groove 331. When the pull rod 33 is released, the spring 34 loses external force and gradually contracts back to its original length under the action of its own elastic restoring force. The extension of the spring 34 pushes the pull rod 33 upward. The upward movement of the pull rod 33 is accompanied by the synchronous upward movement of the filter plate 2, causing the removal shaft 31 to exit the filter hole 201, completing the entire reset process.
[0033] Example 2 Based on Embodiment 1, a rotating block 36 is rotatably provided inside the receiving groove 331. The rotating block 36 is fixedly connected to the end of the spring 34 away from the fixed rod 35. A scraper 37 for scraping the top surface of the filter plate 2 is installed on the outer periphery of the pull rod 33.
[0034] After the removal shaft 31 extends to the limit into the filter hole 201, the top of the removal shaft 31 is flush with the top surface of the filter plate 2. At this time, rotating the pull rod 33 will drive the scraper 37 to scrape the top surface of the filter plate 2, so as to remove the tea leaves.
[0035] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described above, but the present embodiments are not limited to the specific implementation methods described above. The specific implementation methods described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present embodiments, all of which are within the protection scope of the present embodiments.
