Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily drinking water appliances, and in particular to a pop-up kettle lid and kettle. Background Technology

[0002] Pop-up lid water bottles, with their convenient "press-and-pop" opening mechanism, have become widely used drinking utensils in home, office, and outdoor travel scenarios. However, currently mainstream pop-up lid water bottles on the market still have many technical shortcomings in terms of structural design and functional compatibility, making it difficult to meet users' needs for ease of use, safety, and functional versatility. Specific problems are as follows: 1. The main cover knob is difficult to operate, affecting opening, closing, and cleaning efficiency. Most existing pop-up lid kettles feature a smooth, one-piece design for the main lid, without any structures to assist in gripping or applying force. In actual use, users need to rotate the main lid to separate it from the kettle body (e.g., to add water or clean the interior). However, the smooth surface of the main lid results in insufficient friction, especially when hands are wet, oily, or sweaty. Fingers are prone to slipping on the lid surface, making it difficult to apply effective torque. This not only increases the difficulty of opening and closing the lid and prolongs the operation time, but also may lead to loss of control due to uneven force, causing the kettle to tilt, spill, or even creating a safety hazard of hand-to-keep collision. This seriously affects the user's operating experience and efficiency.

[0003] II. The front-mounted design of the flip-top button has safety and reliability defects. The pop-up lid button on existing products is generally located on the front of the main lid. This layout inherently conflicts with the core use case of kettles (containing hot water) and poses a safety risk. Firstly, pressing the front button requires the user's finger to be close to the spout area. Steam generated by the high temperature inside the kettle can easily escape from the spout gaps, directly contacting the user's fingers and posing a significant risk of burns. Furthermore, increasing the torque of the drive spring to improve the success rate of opening the lid can cause the lid to pop open too quickly, splashing out any condensation on the inner lid due to inertia, further increasing the risk of burns. Secondly, the front of the main lid is the area where the kettle most frequently comes into contact with the external environment. A front-mounted button is easily accidentally pressed, causing the lid to pop open unintentionally, resulting in liquid leakage, contamination of items, and reduced reliability of the product in mobile environments.

[0004] Third, the direct drinking and straw functions are incompatible, limiting usage scenarios. Existing pop-up lid water bottles mostly employ a single design, offering only one option: a "drinking spout" or a "straw," failing to allow for flexible switching between the two functions. This limitation is significant for different user groups and usage scenarios: for example, adults in office settings tend to prefer quick sips from the drinking spout, while children, the elderly, or those traveling need a straw to avoid spills. However, this single-function design forces users to purchase multiple bottles depending on the situation, increasing costs and causing inconvenience in carrying and storing them. Furthermore, the limited functionality fails to adapt to changing user needs during the same usage process (such as switching from tabletop drinking to in-car drinking with a straw), reducing the product's adaptability and flexibility.

[0005] In summary, existing pop-up lid water bottles have significant technical deficiencies in terms of ease of operation of the main lid, safety and reliability of the pop-up lid, and functional compatibility. They are unable to meet the core needs of modern users for "efficient, safe, and multifunctional" drinking water appliances. Therefore, it is urgent to optimize and improve their structure to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides a pop-up kettle lid and kettle. The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: This utility model provides a spring-loaded kettle lid, including a main lid and a spring-loaded lid; the end face of the main lid is provided with independent fitting parts, connectors and a straw spout; The fitting has a C-shaped structure and is adapted to the spring cover; the connector is located at the opening of the fitting and is elastically hinged to the rear of the spring cover; the straw nozzle is located in the internal space of the fitting and is completely surrounded by the fitting, and a straw is detachably connected to the lower end of the straw nozzle. A button is also provided at the rear of the main cover. The button has a horizontally arranged U-shaped structure. When the button is installed on the main cover, the connector is located in the internal space of the button and is completely surrounded by the button. An elastic element is provided between the button and the connector along the movement direction of the button. The internal space of the fitting is also provided with a latch. The latch is a horizontally arranged U-shaped structure adapted to the button. The open end of the latch engages with the button, and the button releases the spring cover from its locked state through the latch. When the spring cover is in the locked state, the closed end of the latch is in the first position and abuts against the spring cover; When the spring cover is in the unlocked state, the closed end of the latch is in the second position and is disengaged from the spring cover; Wherein, the open end and the closed end of the latch are opposite ends, the first position and the second position are the movement limits of the latch, and the second position is the position away from the connector along the movement direction of the latch from the first position.

[0007] Furthermore, the straw spout includes a suction nozzle, which penetrates the end face of the main cover and is integrally formed with the main cover. The suction nozzle has a straw end and a suction mouth end. The inner wall of the straw end is detachably connected to the straw. The inner diameter of the suction mouth end along the movement direction of the button is smaller than the inner diameter of the straw end.

[0008] Furthermore, the nozzle end has a duckbill-shaped structure.

[0009] Furthermore, the side of the straw outlet facing the connector is also provided with a direct drinking water inlet for setting the direct drinking water assembly.

[0010] Furthermore, the direct drinking water component is made of a soft material.

[0011] Furthermore, the direct drinking water assembly includes an integrally formed direct drinking water spout for direct drinking, a cup mouth sealing member for sealing the cup mouth, and a straw end kit for attaching the straw end. The direct drinking water spout is provided with a straw end kit for attaching the straw end, and the cup mouth sealing member is located on the lower side of the end face of the main cover.

[0012] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the drinking spout is larger than the inner diameter of the mouthpiece end in the direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the button.

[0013] Furthermore, the outer wall where the main cover meets the cup body is provided with an external thread for easy knob turning.

[0014] Furthermore, the upper end of the spring cover is also provided with a handle that is adapted to the spring cover, and the rear part of the handle is axially connected to the rear part of the spring cover.

[0015] This utility model also provides a kettle, including a cup body and any of the above-described pop-up kettle lids.

[0016] Because of the adoption of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages and positive effects compared with the prior art: I. Improve safety and smooth operation to optimize the drinking experience. (1) Avoid the risk of burns: The pop-up button is located at the rear of the main lid. When pressing to open the lid, the user's fingers do not need to be close to the spout area, completely away from the overflow range of high-temperature steam inside the kettle, thus avoiding burns caused by direct contact of steam with fingers from the source of operation; at the same time, the rear button layout does not need to rely on a high-torque spring to overcome the interference of the front pressing, and the lid pops open slowly, which can prevent the condensate water inside the lid from being thrown out due to inertia, further reducing safety hazards.

[0017] (2) Simplified operation: When holding the kettle, the palm naturally wraps around the middle and rear of the kettle body, and the index finger can directly reach the button on the back of the main lid. The opening action can be completed without adjusting the hand posture. After opening the lid, there is no need to adjust the hand position. You can tilt the kettle body to drink or pour water, realizing the continuous operation of "press-open lid-drink water". It is especially suitable for single-handed use scenarios and improves the smoothness of operation.

[0018] II. Reduce the difficulty of opening and closing the main cover, and improve the efficiency of use and maintenance. The main lid features an external threaded structure, significantly increasing friction between the hand and the lid compared to existing smooth-surfaced lids. Whether the user's hands are wet, oily, or sweaty, the external thread allows for quick and effective torque application, easily separating or tightening the lid from the kettle body. This avoids operational difficulties and liquid spills caused by slippage. Simultaneously, the convenient lid opening and closing design facilitates regular disassembly for cleaning the kettle's interior, reducing maintenance difficulty and ensuring drinking water hygiene.

[0019] III. Achieve functional compatibility and broaden the application scenarios and target audience. Adopting a dual-function design of direct drinking and straw, it breaks the limitation of existing products that only offer one of two functions: users can flexibly switch the water dispensing mode according to their actual needs. For example, they can choose the direct drinking spout for quick drinking in office or home scenarios, and switch to the straw for drinking when traveling, outdoors, or when used by children or the elderly to prevent liquid spillage. There is no need to purchase multiple water bottles for different scenarios, which reduces the economic cost for users and also reduces the burden of carrying and storing, greatly expanding the product's usage scenarios and the range of people it can be used for.

[0020] IV. Reduce accidental touches and improve product reliability The rear of the main lid is a non-high-frequency contact area. Placing the button here can reduce the problem of accidental activation caused by external force of the existing front button, reduce the possibility of liquid leakage caused by the lid accidentally popping open, and improve the reliability of the product during movement or storage.
