[0044] See Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 1 The following is a front view of a beverage container in some embodiments of this application. Figure 2 It shows Figure 1 Enlarged structural diagram at point A in the middle. Figure 3 A bottom view of the container body in some embodiments of this application is shown. Figure 4 A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the charging device in some embodiments of this application is shown. Figure 5 A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of a beverage container in some other embodiments of this application is shown. The beverage container 100 provided in the embodiments of this application includes a container body 1 and a charging device 2. The container body 1 is provided with at least two first electrical connectors 11. The charging device 2 is provided with a support surface 201 and at least two second electrical connectors 21. The container body 1 can be supported and placed on the support surface 201, and at least two first electrical connectors 11 can make electrical contact with at least two second electrical connectors 21 in a one-to-one correspondence. Wherein, the first electrical connector 11 is an electrical contact, at least one second electrical connector 21 is a conductive ring, and each second electrical connector 21 is coaxially arranged; or, the second electrical connector 21 is an electrical contact, at least one first electrical connector 11 is a conductive ring, and each first electrical connector 11 is coaxially arranged.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the diagram, the H direction is the height direction, the R direction is the radial direction, and the H direction and the R direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0046] The beverage container 100 in this embodiment may have functions such as temperature control, and includes a container body 1 and a charging device 2 that are configured accordingly.

[0047] The container body 1 has a cavity that can hold liquid beverages, solid food, and other items. The container body 1 also includes a functional module (not shown), which may include a power supply component. Powered by the power supply component, the functional module performs auxiliary functions. Thus, the container body 1 can be used independently without connecting to an external power source, offering convenience and flexibility. For example, the functional module may include a temperature control component. The power supply component supplies power to the temperature control component, which regulates the temperature of the items contained in the cavity to a set temperature, providing items at a suitable temperature at any time. The temperature control component may include a heating unit, such as a heating film or heat pipe, or a cooling unit, such as a thermoelectric cooler; no limitation is made here. The power supply component may include a rechargeable battery, such as a lithium-ion battery.

[0048] The container body 1 is also provided with a first electrical connector 11, which is used for conductive connection to transmit current or electrical signals; the number of first electrical connectors 11 is at least two, for example, there can be two, three, four, five or six, etc. Two of the first electrical connectors 11 are electrically connected to the power supply component of the functional module, and can serve as the positive and negative electrodes of the power supply component to connect to an external power source to charge the power supply component.

[0049] The charging device 2 is provided with a support surface 201, which is used to support the container body 1. The support surface 201 can be a plane. For example, when the charging device 2 is placed on a horizontal surface, the support surface 201 is parallel to the horizontal surface. In this way, the container body 1 can be stably supported and placed on the support surface 201. The shape and size of the support surface 201 are not limited, as long as it can support the container body 1.

[0050] The charging device 2 also includes second electrical connectors 21, which are used for conductive connection to transmit current or electrical signals. The number of second electrical connectors 21 is the same as the number of first electrical connectors 11, and the positions of the second electrical connectors 21 are arranged to correspond to the positions of the corresponding first electrical connectors 11 on the container body 1. Thus, when the container body 1 is supported on the support surface 201, each first electrical connector 11 can make electrical contact with each second electrical connector 21 in a one-to-one correspondence, thereby conductively connecting the container body 1 and the charging device 2 to transmit current or electrical signals between them. Two of the second electrical connectors 21 can be electrically connected to an external power source. By making the two first electrical connectors 11 connected to the power supply component make corresponding electrical contact with the two second electrical connectors 21 connected to the external power source, a conductive path is formed, thereby enabling the charging device 2 to charge the power supply component of the container body 1. The first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21 achieve a contact-type conductive connection, simplifying the charging connection structure and eliminating the need for cumbersome disassembly and connection operations. This makes it easy to pick up and put down the container body 1 during charging, making the operation simple and the connection stable. This helps ensure a stable and reliable charging process, reduces wear during frequent use, and makes the device more durable, thus extending the service life of the first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21.

[0051] Wherein, when the first electrical connector 11 is an electrical contact, at least one second electrical connector 21 is a conductive ring, and all second electrical connectors 21 are coaxially arranged; when the second electrical connector 21 is an electrical contact, at least one first electrical connector 11 is a conductive ring, and all first electrical connectors 11 are coaxially arranged. It can be understood that when multiple conductive rings are included, the multiple conductive rings are coaxially arranged; when non-conductive rings are included, the conductive rings are coaxially arranged around the outside of the non-conductive rings. The electrical contact has a contact end 111, and the conductive ring has a circular conductive surface surrounding its central axis. Any contact of the contact end 111 of the electrical contact with any part of the circular conductive surface of the conductive ring can effectively establish a conductive path. Therefore, including the conductive ring, conductive contact can be formed within a 360° range around the central axis of the conductive ring. Simultaneously, because multiple conductive rings are coaxially arranged or coaxially surround the non-conductive ring, multiple electrical contacts can simultaneously form conductive contact with multiple conductive rings without adjusting the direction and position of each contact. Thus, during charging, there is no need to distinguish direction or positive and negative terminals; simply place the container body 1 on the support surface 201 of the charging device 2. The first electrical connector 11 automatically aligns with the second electrical connector 21 and easily forms electrical contact. The container body 1 can be placed horizontally at 360° without rotation or further adjustment, significantly improving the convenience of charging the container body 1 and making it simple and easy to operate.

[0052] The beverage container 100 of this application embodiment is configured with a first electrical connector 11 and a second electrical connector 21 to achieve a contact-type conductive connection through abutment. This simplifies the charging connection structure, eliminates the need for cumbersome disassembly and connection operations, facilitates the placement and removal of the container body 1, and features a simple structure, easy operation, and a more stable and durable connection, which helps ensure a stable and reliable electrical connection. At the same time, the first electrical connector 11 or the second electrical connector 21 is configured as a conductive ring, so the installation of the container body 1 and the charging device 2 is not restricted by direction, and there is no need to distinguish between positive and negative terminals. The container body 1 can be placed directly, allowing users to place it arbitrarily, making operation simple and convenient for users.

[0053] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 At least two first electrical connectors 11 are respectively located at different radial positions on the bottom of the container body 1; see reference Figure 4 At least two second electrical connectors 21 are respectively located at different radial positions on the support surface 201.

[0054] Different radial positions at the bottom of container body 1 refer to positions where the bottom of container body 1 is at different distances from the central axis of container body 1; for example... Figure 3 As shown, when the first electrical connector 11 is an electrical contact, at least two electrical contacts are spaced apart along the radial direction of the container body 1; in embodiments not shown, when the first electrical connector 11 includes a conductive ring, each first electrical connector 11 has a different radius, and the central axis of each first electrical connector 11 is coaxial with the central axis of the container body 1. Different radial positions of the support surface 201 refer to positions on the support surface 201 that are at different distances from the central axis of the support surface 201; for example... Figure 4 As shown, when the second electrical connector 21 includes a conductive ring, each second electrical connector 21 has a different radius, and the central axis of each second electrical connector 21 is coaxial with the central axis of the support surface 201; in embodiments not shown, when the second electrical connector 21 is an electrical contact, at least two electrical contacts are spaced apart along the radial direction of the support surface 201.

[0055] By placing the first electrical connector 11 at the bottom of the container body 1 and the second electrical connector 21 on the support surface 201, when the container body 1 is placed on the support surface 201, the first electrical connector 11 can be pressed against the second electrical connector 21 by the weight of the container body 1, making the connection more stable and helping to ensure a stable and reliable electrical connection.

[0056] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 At least two second electrical connectors 21 include a central electrical contact and at least one conductive ring, the conductive ring being coaxially arranged around the central electrical contact.

[0057] The central electrical contact refers to the conductive contact located at the center of the support surface 201; the shape of the central electrical contact can be circular, elliptical, polygonal, etc., and is not limited here. A conductive ring is coaxially arranged around the central electrical contact, and the conductive ring and the central electrical contact are exposed on the support surface 201 of the charging device 2, and the central axis of the conductive ring and the geometric center of the central electrical contact are both coaxial with the central axis of the support surface 201. The first electrical connector 11 is an electrical contact, one of which can be located at the center of the bottom surface of the container body 1, and the other electrical contacts are arranged around the outer ring of the central electrical contact; when the container body 1 is placed on the support surface 201, the electrical contacts are in electrical contact with the central electrical contact and the conductive ring.

[0058] With this arrangement, the first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21 are more compactly distributed, saving space and helping to reduce the size of the first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21, thus saving costs.

[0059] In embodiments not shown, the second electrical connector 21 may also be conductive rings, with the inner diameters of multiple conductive rings increasing sequentially and being coaxially nested.

[0060] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 And further reading Figure 6 , Figure 6 A partial exploded view of the container body in some embodiments of this application is shown; the bottom of the container body 1 is provided with a mounting groove 121, and the contact ends 111 of at least two first electrical connectors 11 are provided in the mounting groove 121; the container body 1 also includes a protective cover 13, which is floatingly provided in the mounting groove 121, and the protective cover 13 is provided with a through hole 131 corresponding to the contact end 111, so that the contact end 111 can pass through the through hole 131 and be exposed to the protective cover 13.

[0061] In this embodiment, the first electrical connector 11 is an electrical contact. The electrical contact is arranged at the bottom of the container body 1, and the contact end 111 of the electrical contact is located in the mounting groove 121 at the bottom of the container body 1. This reduces the size of the contact end 111 protruding from the bottom surface of the container body 1, making it easier for the container body 1 to be placed stably on a flat surface such as a table or countertop, and convenient to use. A protective cover 13 is also provided in the mounting groove 121. The shape and size of the protective cover 13 are adapted to the shape and size of the mounting groove 121, so that the protective cover 13 can cover the inside of the mounting groove 121. At the same time, the protective cover 13 is provided with a through hole 131 to avoid the contact end 111. The number of through holes 131 can be one, so that the contact ends 111 of all the first electrical connectors 11 pass through the same through hole 131. The number of through holes 131 can also be the same as the number of first electrical connectors 11, with the contact ends 111 of each first electrical connector 11 passing through their respective through holes 131. The bottom surface of the protective cover 13 is the side surface facing out of the mounting groove 121.

[0062] The protective cover 13 is floating, meaning it can reciprocate along the height of the container body 1 within the mounting groove 121. This, combined with the through-hole 131 on the protective cover 13, allows the contact end 111 to protrude from the bottom surface of the cover. At this time, the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 can contact the central electrical contact and conductive ring on the support surface 201 to form a closed circuit, thereby enabling the charging device 2 to charge the power assembly of the container body 1. When not charging, the protective cover 13 protects the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11.

[0063] By placing the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 in the mounting groove 121 and providing a floating protective cover 13, the contact end 111 can be protected, wear and damage to the contact end 111 can be reduced, and service life can be extended while ensuring the contact effect between the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21.

[0064] In some embodiments, the protective cover 13 can be moved to a first position at least partially located outside the end face of the contact end 111 and a second position located inside the end face of the contact end 111; a pushing part 202 is also provided on the support surface 201, which can abut against the protective cover 13 to drive the protective cover 13 to move to the second position.

[0065] The outer side of the end face of the contact end 111 refers to the side of the end face of the contact end 111 that is close to the outside of the mounting groove 121; the inner side of the end face of the contact end 111 refers to the side of the end face of the contact end 111 that is close to the inside of the mounting groove 121. The protective cover 13 can be moved to a first position, at least a portion of the protective cover 13 is located outside the end face of the contact end 111, that is, the end face of the contact end 111 is located inside the bottom surface of the protective cover 13, and the protective cover 13 completely covers the contact end 111, so that the contact end 111 does not protrude and protrude from the bottom surface of the protective cover 13; the protective cover 13 can also be moved to a second position, at which point the protective cover 13 is located inside the end face of the contact end 111, that is, the end face of the contact end 111 is located outside the bottom surface of the protective cover 13, so that the contact end 111 protrudes and protrudes from the bottom surface of the protective cover 13.

[0066] A pushing part 202 is protruding from the support surface 201 of the charging device 2. For example, the pushing part 202 can be a ring of baffles surrounding the outside of the second electrical connector 21. During charging, the container body 1 is placed on the support surface 201, and the pushing part 202 contacts and pushes the protective cover 13 at the bottom of the container body 1, causing the protective cover 13 to move upward to the second position, exposing the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11. At this time, the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 can make electrical contact with the central electrical contact and the conductive ring on the support surface 201, forming a closed circuit, thereby enabling the charging device 2 to charge the power assembly of the container body 1. When not charging, the protective cover 13 remains in the first position, and the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 is located inside the protective cover 13, so that the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 is not exposed when the container body 1 is not charging.

[0067] By keeping the protective cover 13 in the first position, the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 is not exposed when the container body 1 is not placed on the charging device 2, thus preventing the contact end 111 from being exposed for a long time. The contact end 111 is protected, is not easy to wear and damage, and has a longer service life. At the same time, through the push part 202 provided on the support surface 201, the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 can be automatically exposed when the container body 1 is placed on the charging device 2, so as to realize the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21. No driving operation is required, and the container body 1 can be placed directly. The operation is simple and convenient for users.

[0068] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 And further reading Figure 7 , Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the bottom module in some embodiments of this application is shown; the container body 1 includes a bottom module 12, a cavity module 14 and a functional module (not shown in the figure), and the cavity module 14 has a cavity inside; the bottom module 12 is detachably connected to the bottom of the cavity module 14; the first electrical connector 11 and the functional module are both located on the bottom module 12, and the first electrical connector 11 is electrically connected to the functional module.

[0069] For example, the cavity module 14 can be a mug; the cavity module 14 and the bottom module 12 can be connected by a rotating snap-fit. The bottom module 12 has a functional module inside, which enables auxiliary functions of the beverage container 100; a first electrical connector 11 is connected to the functional module for transmitting current or electrical signals; the cavity module 14 and the bottom module 12 are detachably connected, and the first electrical connector 11 is located on the bottom module 12. Thus, the user can disassemble the cavity module 14 for independent use or cleaning, making it flexible and convenient for users.

[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 The mounting slot 121 is located on the bottom surface of the bottom module 12 away from the cavity module 14; the first electrical connector 11 is located at the bottom of the bottom module 12.

[0071] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The container body 1 also includes a bracket 15, which is installed in the groove of the mounting slot 121. The protective cover 13 can abut against the bracket 15 and limit the protective cover 13 to a first position.

[0072] The specific structure of the bracket 15 is not limited, as long as it can be installed in the groove of the mounting slot 121 and abut against the protective cover 13. For example, the bracket 15 includes an annular stop portion 151, the inner diameter of which is smaller than the outer diameter of the protective cover 13, so that the stop portion 151 can abut against the outer edge of the bottom surface of the protective cover 13, thereby blocking and limiting the protective cover 13. By setting the bracket 15, the first position of the protective cover 13 is limited, which can restrict the protective cover 13 from continuing to move outward toward the mounting slot 121, preventing the protective cover 13 from falling out of the mounting slot 121, and ensuring stable and reliable use.

[0073] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 And further reading Figure 8 , Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the structure of the protective cover in some embodiments of this application is shown; the outer periphery of the protective cover 13 is provided with a first limiting part 132, and the bracket 15 is provided with a corresponding second limiting part 152. The first limiting part 132 and the second limiting part 152 can be connected to each other, and the first limiting part 132 and the second limiting part 152 can move relative to each other along the height direction of the container body 1.

[0074] For example, the first limiting part 132 may be a protrusion protruding from the outer peripheral sidewall of the protective cover 13, and the second limiting part 152 may be a corresponding groove formed on the bracket 15; or the first limiting part 132 may also be a groove formed on the outer peripheral sidewall of the protective cover 13, and the second limiting part 152 may be a corresponding protrusion protruding from the bracket 15; the protrusion and the groove can be inserted into each other. Simultaneously, the extending direction of the protrusion is parallel to the central axis of the protective cover 13 and the bracket 15, and / or, the extending direction of the groove is parallel to the central axis of the protective cover 13 and the bracket 15; the protrusion and the groove can slide relative to each other along the central axis of the bracket 15. Thus, the insertion and engagement of the protrusion and the groove can restrict the relative movement of the protective cover 13 and the bracket 15 along the circumference of the bracket 15, and limit the movement of the protective cover 13 along the central axis of the bracket 15. When the bracket 15 is installed in the mounting groove 121, the central axis of the bracket 15 is parallel to the height direction of the container body 1, thereby limiting the movement of the protective cover 13 along the height direction of the container body 1.

[0075] By setting the first limiting part 132 and the second limiting part 152 to cooperate and connect, and the first limiting part 132 and the second limiting part 152 can move relative to each other along the height direction of the container body 1, the protective cover 13 can play a limiting and guiding role, so that the protective cover 13 can only move along the height direction of the container body 1, the movement is more stable, it is not easy to deviate from the direction, and it is simple and convenient to use.

[0076] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 The protective cover 13 may be provided with multiple first limiting parts 132, such as two or three, and the multiple first limiting parts 132 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the protective cover 13. In this way, the limiting and guiding effect of the protective cover 13 is better.

[0077] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 The bottom surface of the protective cover 13 is surrounded by a stepped portion 133, which abuts against the stop portion 151 of the bracket 15 to block and limit the protective cover 13. By setting the stepped portion 133, the bottom surface of the protective cover 13 can pass through the inner ring of the bracket 15 and be flush with the bottom surface of the bracket 15.

[0078] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7The bracket 15 also includes an annular insertion portion 153 and a buckle 154 disposed on the insertion portion 153. The outer diameter of the insertion portion 153 is smaller than the inner diameter of the groove of the mounting groove 121, so that the insertion portion 153 can be inserted into the mounting groove 121. The inner wall of the mounting groove 121 is provided with a retaining groove 122, and the buckle 154 engages with the retaining groove 122 to detachably fix the bracket 15 to the mounting groove 121. A second limiting portion 152 is disposed on the insertion portion 153.

[0079] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The container body 1 also includes an elastic element 16, which is located between the bottom of the mounting groove 121 and the protective cover 13.

[0080] The elastic element 16 can be a spring, a metal sheet, or a rubber column, etc., and is not limited thereto; the two ends of the elastic element 16 abut against the bottom wall of the mounting groove 121 and the surface of the protective cover 13 facing the inside of the mounting groove 121, respectively. For example, see [reference needed]. Figure 8 The protective cover 13 has two cross-shaped ribs 134 on its surface facing the mounting groove 121 to fix and limit the two springs; the elastic element 16 can generate an elastic force on the protective cover 13. When the container body 1 is placed on the support surface 201, the actuating part 202 actuates the protective cover 13, compressing the elastic element 16 and moving the protective cover 13 upward, thereby exposing the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 to make electrical contact with the central electrical contact and conductive ring on the support surface 201; when not charging, the elastic element 16 drives the protective cover 13 to move toward the groove of the mounting groove 121, and with the cooperation of the bracket 15, the protective cover 13 is held in the first position, ensuring that the contact end 111 of the first electrical connector 11 is not exposed when not charging, fully protecting the contact end 111 and extending its service life.

[0081] In other embodiments, see Figure 5 At least two first electrical connectors 11 are respectively located at different heights on the outer peripheral wall of the container body 1; at least two second electrical connectors 21 are located on the outer peripheral side of the support surface 201 and are spaced apart along the height direction of the charging device 2.

[0082] At least two first electrical connectors 11 are spaced apart along the height direction of the container body 1 on the outer peripheral wall of the container body 1, and correspondingly at least two second electrical connectors 21 are spaced apart along the height direction of the charging device 2. In this way, the contact conductive structure is set on the side of the container body 1, which can play a waterproof role and make it safer and more durable.

[0083] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 5In this embodiment, the first electrical connector 11 is a conductive ring, and the conductive ring is arranged around the outer peripheral wall of the container body 1. In this embodiment, the second electrical connector 21 is an electrical contact; the first electrical connector 11 is a conductive ring, and multiple conductive rings are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the container body 1 on the outer peripheral wall of the container body 1.

[0084] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 And further reading Figure 9 and Figure 10 , Figure 9 Cross-sectional views of charging devices in other embodiments of this application are shown. Figure 10 An exploded view of a charging device in some other embodiments of this application is shown; the charging device 2 includes a base 22, an upper cover plate 23, a control component 24 and a bottom cover plate 25. The base 22 has an internal mounting cavity 221, and the side wall 222 of the base 22 has a mounting hole 223 communicating with the mounting cavity 221. The upper cover plate 23 is mounted on the base 22 and is located on one side of the side wall 222. The upper cover plate 23 may be a metal cover plate. A support surface 201 is formed on the upper cover plate 23, and the side wall 222 is located on the outer periphery of the support surface 201. The control component 24 is disposed within the mounting cavity 221 of the base 22. The control component 24 includes a mounting bracket 241, a control board 242, and a protective bracket 243. The control board 242 can be a PCB (Printed Circuit Board). The control component 24 is limited by the side recess 244 of the mounting bracket 241 cooperating with the limiting connecting post 224 of the base 22 and is fixed to the base 22 with screws. The second electrical connector 21 is an electrical contact, one end of which is connected to the control board 242, and the other end extends through the mounting hole 223 of the base 22. The control board 242 and the protective bracket 243 are limited by two pillars provided on the mounting bracket 241. The bottom cover plate 25 is connected to the bottom of the base 22 and closes the mounting cavity 221 of the base 22. The charging device 2 also includes an anti-slip pad 26, which is connected to the bottom of the base 22.

[0085] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 The charging device 2 is also provided with a limiting surface 203, which is arranged around the outer periphery of the support surface 201. The inner diameter of the limiting surface 203 is adapted to the bottom outer diameter of the container body 1.

[0086] The limiting surface 203 and the supporting surface 201 define the placement area of ​​the container body 1; for example, the limiting surface 203 is perpendicular to the supporting surface 201. During charging, there is no need to distinguish the direction and position; the container body 1 can be placed directly in the placement area. The first electrical connector 11 can automatically align with the second electrical connector 21 and form electrical contact. There is no need to rotate or further adjust the container body 1, which significantly improves the convenience of charging the container body 1. It is simple to operate and convenient for users.

[0087] In some embodiments, continue reading Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 The charging device 2 is also provided with a guide surface 204, which is connected to the end of the limiting surface 203 away from the support surface 201 and is inclined towards the outside of the support surface 201.

[0088] The guide surface 204 is generally funnel-shaped and tapers towards the limiting surface 203. It can guide the bottom of the container body 1 into the placement area enclosed by the limiting surface 203. The end of the guide surface 204 away from the support surface 201 has a large opening area, which makes it easy to place the container body 1 without having to work hard to align the placement position. This further improves the convenience of charging the container body 1, making the operation simple and convenient for users.

[0089] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 5 The number of the first electrical connector 11 and the second electrical connector 21 are both two.

[0090] Two first electrical connectors 11 are electrically connected to the power supply assembly of the container body 1 and can serve as the positive and negative charging electrodes of the power supply assembly. For example, one is located at the center of the bottom of the container body 1 and the other is located on its outer ring. Two second electrical connectors 21 are correspondingly arranged on the support surface 201 of the charging device 2. The two first electrical connectors 11 and the two second electrical connectors 21 are in one-to-one contact and conduct electricity to form a conductive path, which can transmit current between the container body 1 and the charging device 2, thereby enabling the charging device 2 to charge the power supply assembly of the container body 1.

[0091] In some other embodiments, see [reference] Figure 11 and Figure 12 , Figure 11 A bottom view of the container body in some other embodiments of this application is shown. Figure 12 A top view of a charging device in some embodiments of this application is shown; there are four first electrical connectors 11 and four second electrical connectors 21; two of the first electrical connectors 11 are in contact with two of the second electrical connectors 21 to conduct electricity, and the other two first electrical connectors 11 are in contact with the other two second electrical connectors 21 to conduct electrical signals.

[0092] The other two first electrical connectors 11 can be electrically connected to the functional modules of the container body 1 and can serve as signal input and output interfaces for the functional modules. By adding two first electrical connectors 11 and two second electrical connectors 21 to make contact and conduct electricity, electrical signals can be transmitted between the container body 1 and the charging device 2, which is beneficial to realize intelligent control of the container body 1, enhances the functionality, and makes it more convenient for users.
