Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of water cups, and more particularly to a lid. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life and office settings, water cups are an essential household item. Existing water cups are generally equipped with a single drinking spout or only a fixed straw. If there is only a drinking spout, users need to tilt the cup to drink, which can easily lead to spillage on bumpy roads. If there is only a fixed straw, not only is it impossible to clean the straw, but the usage scenarios are also limited, affecting the user experience. Therefore, improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as water cups having separate drinking spouts or fixed straws, which limit usage scenarios and negatively impact user experience, by providing a new type of lid.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: A lid includes a lid body and a straw. The lid body has a vent hole and a water outlet. A first connecting pipe and a second connecting pipe are provided on the lower surface of the lid body. One end of the straw is detachably attached to the first or second connecting pipe. The first connecting pipe is located at the lower opening of the water outlet and communicates with the water outlet. A flap is rotatably mounted on the lid body. A locking block is provided on the flap. A locking groove is provided on the lid body. The lid body, flap, water outlet, and vent hole form an open state and a closed state. In the open state, the flap rotates away from the water outlet, and the water outlet and vent hole are exposed. In the closed state, the locking block is inserted into the locking groove and engages. The flap covers the water outlet and vent hole and seals them.

[0005] Users can drink directly from the spout or attach the straw to the first connecting tube, connecting the straw to the spout and allowing drinking through both. This facilitates use during travel, meeting diverse user needs and enhancing the user experience. The straw can also be removed for cleaning, improving its cleanliness. The flap and lid are locked together via a locking block and locking groove, offering a simple structure and ease of operation. The flap controls the opening and closing of the spout and vent, effectively preventing liquid leakage and making the cup easy to carry. The vent allows adjustment of the pressure difference between the cup and the outside environment, facilitating drinking through the spout. The lid, mainly composed of the flap, lid body, and straw, can be switched between open and closed states via the flap, offering advantages such as simple structure, easy operation, and low production cost.

[0006] Preferably, in the above-described cover, the upper end of the cover body is provided with an arc-shaped platform, the water outlet is located on the arc-shaped platform and the upper part of the water outlet is located on the upper surface of the arc-shaped platform, and the flap is provided with a first sealing plug, which is inserted into the water outlet or removed from the water outlet as the flap rotates.

[0007] The upper part of the spout is located on the upper surface of the curved platform, which better suits the user's drinking habits and further improves the user experience of using the spout. In the closed state, the first sealing plug can be tightly plugged into the spout, which improves the tightness of the flap sealing the spout when closed and prevents water leakage from the spout when the cup is tilted.

[0008] Preferably, in the above-described cover, a limiting protrusion is provided on the cover body. The outer end of the limiting protrusion is arc-shaped. When the cover is in the open state, the flap rotates toward the limiting protrusion, and the outer end of the limiting protrusion abuts against the flap and restricts the flap from rotating.

[0009] The limiting protrusion can interfere with the rotation of the flap, preventing the flap from resetting and accidentally touching the user's face when using the water outlet; the outer end of the limiting protrusion is arc-shaped, which reduces the obstruction encountered when the limiting protrusion is pressed against the flap.

[0010] Preferably, in the above-described cover, the outer wall of the first connecting tube has a deformation groove extending along the height direction of the first connecting tube, one side opening of the deformation groove is located on the lower surface of the first connecting tube, and one end of the straw is inserted into the first connecting tube for insertion and engagement.

[0011] The deformation groove allows the inner wall of the first connecting tube to expand outward and retract inward, thereby improving the smoothness of inserting the straw into the first connecting tube.

[0012] Preferably, in the above-described cover, a hollow second sealing plug is provided inside the vent hole, and a downwardly protruding abutment ring is provided on the lower surface of the flap. In the closed state, the abutment ring surrounds the upper opening of the vent hole and abuts against the upper surface of the second sealing plug.

[0013] The second sealing plug not only allows for venting but also improves the airtightness of the vent hole. The mutual contact between the abutting ring and the second sealing plug allows the flap to seal the vent hole more tightly, preventing liquid from flowing out of the vent hole when the cup is tilted or laid flat. Rotating the flap can simultaneously insert the first sealing plug and the second sealing plug into or out of the spout and vent hole, improving the integration and simplicity of the lid structure.

[0014] Preferably, in the above-described cover, the flap has a raised edge, the lower surface of which is arc-shaped and gradually slopes inward along the height direction. A limiting groove is formed on the flap, and the first sealing plug is disposed in the limiting groove. In the closed state, the arc-shaped platform is inserted into the limiting groove and abuts against the inner wall of the limiting groove.

[0015] The raised edge provides a point of leverage for the user's hand, making it easier for the user to turn the flap off the cover. The lower surface of the raised edge is inclined, which improves the user's grip on the raised edge. The interlocking of the limiting groove and the arc-shaped platform further improves the stability of the flap locking on the cover when closed.

[0016] Preferably, in the above-described cover, a support platform protruding outward is coaxially provided on the outer side wall of the cover body, and a handle is rotatably provided on the cover body. In its natural state, the support platform supports the lower side of the handle.

[0017] The handle makes it easy for users to move and carry the water cup, while the support platform provides support and limits the handle, improving the overall neatness and aesthetics of the lid in its natural state. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 The present invention will be further described in detail with reference to specific embodiments, but these are not intended to limit the present invention: Example

[0021] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a lid includes a lid body 1 and a straw 2. The lid body 1 has a vent 11 and a water outlet 12. A first connecting pipe 3 and a second connecting pipe 4 are provided on the lower surface of the lid body 1. One end of the straw 2 is detachably attached to either the first connecting pipe 3 or the second connecting pipe 4. The first connecting pipe 3 is located at the lower opening of the water outlet 12 and communicates with it. A flap 5 is rotatably mounted on the lid body 1, and a locking block 51 is provided on the flap 5. The cover 1 is provided with a locking groove 13. The cover 1, the flap 5, the water outlet 12, and the vent 11 are in an open state and a closed state. In the open state, the flap 5 rotates away from the water outlet 12, and the water outlet 12 and the vent 11 are exposed. In the closed state, the locking block 51 is inserted into the locking groove 13 and engages with it. The flap 5 covers the water outlet 12 and the vent 11 and closes the water outlet 12 and the vent 11.

[0022] Preferably, the upper end of the cover 1 is provided with an arc-shaped platform 6, the water outlet 12 is located on the arc-shaped platform 6 and the upper part of the water outlet 12 is located on the upper surface of the arc-shaped platform 6, and the flap 5 is provided with a first sealing plug 52. The first sealing plug 52 is inserted into the water outlet 12 or withdrawn from the water outlet 12 as the flap 5 rotates.

[0023] Preferably, the cover 1 is provided with a limiting protrusion 14, the outer end of the limiting protrusion 14 is arc-shaped, and when in the open state, the flap 5 rotates toward the limiting protrusion 14, and the outer end of the limiting protrusion 14 abuts against the flap 5 and restricts the rotation of the flap 5.

[0024] Preferably, the outer wall of the first connecting tube 3 has a deformation groove 31 extending along the height direction of the first connecting tube 3. One side opening of the deformation groove 31 is located on the lower surface of the first connecting tube 3, and one end of the suction tube 2 is inserted into the first connecting tube 3 for insertion and engagement.

[0025] Preferably, the vent hole 11 is provided with a hollow second sealing plug 7, and the lower surface of the flap 5 is provided with a downwardly protruding abutment ring 53. In the closed state, the abutment ring 53 surrounds the upper opening of the vent hole 11 and abuts against the upper surface of the second sealing plug 7.

[0026] Preferably, the flap 5 is provided with a protruding edge 54, the lower surface of the protruding edge 54 is arc-shaped and gradually slopes inward along the height direction, the flap 5 is provided with a limiting groove 55, the first sealing plug 52 is disposed in the limiting groove 55, in the closed state, the arc-shaped platform 6 is inserted into the limiting groove 55 and abuts against the inner wall of the limiting groove 55.

[0027] Preferably, an outwardly protruding support platform 15 is coaxially provided on the outer side wall of the cover 1, and a handle 8 is rotatably provided on the cover 1. In its natural state, the support platform 15 supports the lower side of the handle 8.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the vent 11 includes a first region and a second region distributed from top to bottom. The inner diameter of the first region is larger than that of the second region. The second sealing plug 7 includes a first segment, a second segment, and a third segment distributed from top to bottom. The outer diameter of the third segment gradually decreases downward along the height direction. The first segment is inserted into the first region for a mating fit, the second segment is inserted into the second region for a mating fit, and the third segment protrudes from the vent 11 and abuts against the lower surface of the cover 1, thereby improving the stability of the second sealing plug 7 fixed in the vent 11.

[0029] The outlet 12 includes an upper section and a lower section. The inner diameter of the upper section is larger than that of the lower section. The first sealing plug 52 is arc-shaped away from the outer end of the flap 5. The maximum diameter of the outer end of the first sealing plug 52 is larger than the inner diameter of the lower section of the outlet 12. This allows the first sealing plug 52 to be inserted into the outlet 12, thus providing clearance and guidance, making it easier to smoothly lock the first sealing plug 52 into the outlet 12 and achieve a tight seal on the outlet 12.

[0030] In the closed state, the first sealing plug 52 is locked inside the outlet 12, and the abutment ring 53 abuts against the upper surface of the second sealing plug 7 and, together with the flap 5, seals the upper opening of the vent hole 11, thereby improving the overall airtightness of the cover in the closed state and preventing water leakage.

[0031] More specifically, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the arc-shaped platform 6 is distributed on the upper surface of the cover 1 and is semi-circular. The height of the arc-shaped platform 6 gradually increases towards the outlet 12. The two opposite ends of the flap 5 have rotating shafts. The inner sidewall of the arc-shaped platform 6 is provided with through holes that cooperate with the rotating shafts. The flap 5 and the arc-shaped platform 6 are rotatably connected through the cooperation of the rotating shafts and through holes and rotate towards or away from the outlet 12.

[0032] Two limiting protrusions 14 are provided and are respectively distributed on the inner wall of the arc-shaped platform 6 near the through hole. In the closed state, the outer end of the limiting protrusion 14 abuts against the outer wall of the flap 5. Thus, the limiting protrusions 14 on both sides of the flap 5 can clamp and limit the flap 5, restricting the flap 5 from rotating and resetting towards the water outlet 12, preventing the flap 5 from resetting and hitting the user's mouth when the user uses the water outlet 12.

[0033] like Figures 1-6As shown, when the user wants to drink water, they rotate the flap 5 away from the outlet 12 until the limiting protrusion 14 is pressed against the flap 5. At this time, the user can tilt the cup and drink water through the outlet 12. The user can also insert and fix the straw 2 into the first connecting tube 3 and drink water through the straw 2 and the outlet 12. At this time, there is no need to tilt the cup significantly, and the liquid in the cup is less likely to spill when on bumpy roads, increasing the usage scenarios of the lid. When the straw 2 is not in use, it can be removed for cleaning, improving the user experience.

[0034] The lid is mainly composed of a lid body 1, a straw 2, and a flap 5. Rotating the flap 5 can tightly seal the water outlet 12 and the vent 11 through the first sealing plug 52 and the second sealing plug 7, thus making the overall structure of the lid relatively simple, easy to operate, reducing production costs, and facilitating manufacturing.

[0035] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall be covered by the present utility model.
