[0002] The statements herein provide only background information related to this invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] Currently, most drinking cups have single-function lids, allowing only direct drinking or sipping via a straw. However, the market clearly favors either direct drinking or sipping via a straw. To meet these two consumer needs, existing technology has developed a dual-drinking lid with a drinking spout on one side and a sipping spout on the other. However, this type of lid is relatively complex and costly, and the complex spout assembly creates cleaning dead zones, making it prone to bacterial growth. Therefore, this application provides a lid and cup with a replaceable spout. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the aforementioned shortcomings by providing a cup lid and water cup with a replaceable spout.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A cup lid with a replaceable spout includes a lid body and a spout module, wherein the lid body has a spout interface for detachably connecting to the spout module; The drinking spout module includes at least two forms, one of which is a direct drinking spout and the other is a slurping spout.

[0006] Furthermore, the drinking spout module is made of flexible material, and an annular sealing groove is provided at the position of the drinking spout interface on the outer periphery of the drinking spout module. The drinking spout module is sealed and snapped into place with the drinking spout interface through the annular sealing groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the drinking spout module is provided with a protrusion, the annular sealing groove is formed on the protrusion, and the corresponding position of the protrusion on the cover has a groove for accommodating the protrusion. After the drinking spout module is connected to the drinking spout interface, the top of the protrusion is flush with the top surface of the cover.

[0008] Furthermore, the outline shape of the protrusion matches the outline shape of the groove, and the sidewall of the protrusion abuts against the inner wall of the groove.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention discloses a cup lid with a replaceable spout, including a lid body 1 and a spout module 2. The lid body 1 has a spout interface 11, which is used to detachably connect to the spout module 2. The drinking spout module 2 includes at least two forms, one of which is a direct drinking spout and the other is a slurping spout.

[0020] In practice, users can select the appropriate type of spout module 2 according to their drinking needs, and then install the spout module 2 on the spout interface 11 of the cover 1, thus meeting the different needs of different consumers. Furthermore, since only one spout module 2 is connected to the cover 1 during use, the structure is relatively simple, and the detachable design facilitates cleaning of the spout module 2, reducing the chance of bacterial growth.

[0021] It should be noted that multiple drinking spout modules 2 of each type can be set, and this application does not limit their number.

[0022] The bottom of the drinking spout module 2, which is in the form of a drinking spout, is provided with a straw (not shown in the figure).

[0023] In one embodiment, the drinking spout module 2 is made of a flexible material, and an annular sealing groove 22 is provided on the outer periphery of the drinking spout module 2 at the position corresponding to the drinking spout interface 11. The drinking spout module 2 is sealed and engaged with the drinking spout interface 11 through the annular sealing groove 22. This design, by utilizing the flexibility of the flexible material itself, enables better disassembly, allowing for manual disassembly and assembly without tools. Furthermore, the sealing performance of the annular sealing groove 22 is more easily guaranteed, and the seepage path is relatively long.

[0024] Preferably, the flexible material is silicone.

[0025] In one embodiment, the outer periphery of the drinking spout module 2 is provided with a protrusion 21, and the annular sealing groove 22 is formed on the protrusion 21. The cover 1 has a groove 12 at the corresponding position of the protrusion 21 for accommodating the protrusion 21. After the drinking spout module 2 is connected to the drinking spout interface 11, the top of the protrusion 21 is flush with the top surface of the cover 1. This design has two advantages: firstly, the protrusion 21 located in the groove 12 will not protrude from the cover 1, which is not only more aesthetically pleasing, but also makes it easier to detach the drinking spout module 2 from the drinking spout interface 11 due to accidental contact during use; secondly, the protrusion 21 can extend the water seepage path, resulting in a better sealing effect.

[0026] In one embodiment, the outline shape of the protrusion 21 matches the outline shape of the groove 12, and the sidewall of the protrusion 21 abuts against the inner wall of the groove 12. This design, on the one hand, can further extend the water seepage path and prevent water from accumulating in the groove 12 and breeding bacteria; on the other hand, it also helps to improve the reliability of the connection between the spout module 2 and the cover 1.

[0027] In one embodiment, a first positioning part 211 is provided on one side of the protrusion 21, and a second positioning part 13 adapted to the first positioning part 211 is provided on the cover 1. One of the first positioning part 211 and the second positioning part 13 is concave and the other is convex. They are positioned by a concave-convex interlocking manner. By positioning the mouthpiece module 2 in this way, it can be ensured that the contour curve of the top of the mouthpiece module 2 coincides with the contour curve of the top of the cover 1, so that the mouthpiece module 2 can better connect with the mouthpiece interface 11.

[0028] The first positioning part 211 can be concave or convex.

[0029] In one embodiment, the cover 1 is also provided with a flip cover 3 and a latch 4. One side of the flip cover 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the cover 1 via a pivot, and it can flip to cover the drinking spout module 2. The flip cover 3 is provided with a fastening part 31 that is adapted to the latch 4 at the corresponding position of the latch 4. The fastening part 31 cooperates with the latch 4 to limit the flip cover 3. Pressing the latch 4 releases the restriction on the flip cover 3, allowing the flip cover 3 to open.

[0030] Preferably, the rotating shaft is provided with a torsion spring, which is used to automatically open the flip cover 3 after the flip cover 3 is released from the limit. Since this means is common knowledge to those skilled in the art, it will not be described in detail here.

[0031] In one embodiment, a receiving groove 14 is provided on one side of the cover 1, and the latch 4 includes a button 41 that is slidably disposed in the receiving groove 14. An elastic member 42 is provided between the button 41 and the receiving groove 14. The elastic member 42 is used to push the button 41 to move outward of the cover 1. A hook 43 is provided at the position of the corresponding fastening part 31 of the button 41. The hook 43 is used to fasten with the fastening part 31. When the flip cover 3 covers the drinking spout module 2, pressing the button 41 can cause the hook 43 to separate from the fastening part 31; when the button 41 is released, under the push of the elastic member 42, the button 41 moves to the outside of the cover 1, causing the hook 43 to move towards the fastening part 31 and fasten with the fastening part 31.

[0032] Preferably, the fastening part 31 can be a groove formed on the side wall of the flip cover 3, or it can be a protrusion 142 fixed on the side wall of the flip cover 3. More preferably, the hook 43 and the fastening part 31 have the same cross-sectional shape and are centrally symmetrical. The bottom surface of the hook 43 is flat and the top has an inclined chamfer. When the flip cover 3 is flipped and closed on the drinking spout module 2, the bottom of the flip cover 3 abuts against the chamfer, forcing the hook 43 to slide to one side, which facilitates the automatic locking 4 of the flip cover 3.

[0033] Preferably, the elastic element 42 is a spring.

[0034] Preferably, the receiving groove 14 is provided with sliding grooves 141 on both sides, and the button 41 is provided with elastic connecting rods 44 on both sides of the sliding grooves 141. The connecting rods 44 are provided with sliders 45 at the positions corresponding to the sliding grooves 141, which slide and cooperate with the sliding grooves 141. The sliders 45 extend into the sliding grooves 141, and the sliding of the button 41 is limited by the cooperation of the sliding grooves 141 and the sliders 45.

[0035] In one embodiment, a locking plate 46 is slidably provided on the side of the button 41 away from the receiving groove 14. A stop rod 47 is provided on the side of the locking plate 46 corresponding to the button 41. The stop rod 47 passes through the button 41 and extends into the receiving groove 14. When the locking plate 46 slides up and down, it drives the stop rod 47 to slide up and down together. The receiving groove 14 has a protrusion 142 at its top or bottom. The locking plate 46 has two states when sliding: in one state, the abutting rod 47 abuts against the corresponding protrusion 142; in the other state, the abutting rod 47 is misaligned with the corresponding protrusion 142. When the abutting rod 47 abuts against the corresponding protrusion 142, the button 41 cannot be pressed; when the abutting rod 47 is misaligned with the corresponding protrusion 142, the button 41 can be pressed normally. In this way, when it is not necessary to open the cover, by sliding the locking plate 46 up or down, the abutting rod 47 abuts against the corresponding protrusion 142, thus preventing accidental opening of the flip cover 3 by pressing the button 41.

[0036] In one embodiment, when the abutment rod 47 is misaligned with the corresponding protrusion 142, the locking plate 46 does not completely cover the button 41, and the exposed part of the button 41 is provided with a locking mark (not shown in the figure); when the abutment rod 47 abuts with the corresponding protrusion 142, the locking plate 46 completely covers the locking mark. In this way, by checking whether the locking mark is exposed, it can be determined whether the button 41 is in the locked state, making it more convenient to use.

[0037] The utility model also discloses a water cup, including a cup body 5 and a cup lid with the aforementioned replaceable drinking spout.
