[0020] To make the technical solution of this utility model clearer, the following description is in conjunction with the appendix. Figures 1 to 3 This specification provides a detailed description of the present invention. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] A temperature-sensitive and light-guiding straw cup lid includes a lid body 1, a spout 2, a tri-color light module 3, a control module 4, a battery 5, and a temperature sensor 6. The lid body 1 has a vertically penetrating water outlet channel. The spout 2, made of a light-guiding material (such as translucent silicone or translucent plastic), is inserted into and fixed within the water outlet channel, with its upper end extending beyond the top surface of the lid body 1. The lower end of the water outlet channel or the spout 2 has a connecting portion 20 for connecting a straw, allowing the drinker to draw liquid from the cup through the straw.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the tri-color light module 3 is disposed on the wall of the nozzle 2 and can emit light into the nozzle 2. Since the nozzle 2 is made of light-guiding material, when the tri-color light module 3 emits light, the light can be conducted and emitted through the material of the nozzle 2, making the entire nozzle 2 display the corresponding color, thereby intuitively indicating the temperature of the liquid in the cup to the user.

[0023] In another preferred embodiment, the tri-color light module 3 can also be disposed on the cup lid body 1 and placed on the outside of the spout 2. With this design, the tri-color light module 3 is easier to install and maintain. The light from the tri-color light module 3 shines into the spout 2 from the outside, which can also make the spout 2 display the corresponding color, thus achieving the effect of indicating temperature.

[0024] The control module 4, battery 5, and temperature sensor 6 are located inside the cup lid body 1. The control module 4 controls the illumination of the tri-color light module 3, determining the color of the light emitted by the tri-color light module 3 based on the temperature value detected by the temperature sensor 6. The battery 5 powers the tri-color light module 3, control module 4, and temperature sensor 6, ensuring the entire system functions properly. The temperature sensor 6 extends at least partially downwards through the bottom of the cup lid body 1, allowing it to reach into the cavity of the cup and accurately detect the liquid temperature in real time.

[0025] The cup lid body 1 is also equipped with a sealing cap 7 for opening and closing the nozzle 2. The sealing cap 7 prevents dust from entering the nozzle 2, keeping it clean, and also prevents liquid from overflowing from the nozzle 2 when not in use. An opening detection device is provided on the cup lid body 1 and / or the sealing cap 7. When the opening detection device detects that the sealing cap 7 is open, the control module 4 is activated and enters the working state; when the opening detection device detects that the sealing cap 7 is closed, the control module 4 enters the sleep state. This design effectively saves battery power and extends battery life.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the lid opening detection device may employ a magnetic design, including a magnet 8 and a Hall sensor 9. The magnet 8 is located below the lid 7, and the Hall sensor 9 is located on the lid body 1 or the control module 4, corresponding to the magnet 8. The Hall sensor 9 is electrically connected to the control module 4. When the lid 7 is closed, the magnet 8 approaches the Hall sensor 9, which detects the change in magnetic field and sends a signal to the control module 4, causing the control module 4 to enter a sleep state. When the lid 7 is opened, the magnet 8 moves away from the Hall sensor 9, which detects the change in magnetic field and sends a signal to the control module 4, waking it up and putting it into operation.

[0027] In another preferred embodiment, the lid opening detection device can also be a mechanical design, including a push rod and a switch button. The switch button is at least partially exposed on the top surface of the lid / cup body 1, and is used to switch the control module 4. The push rod is located below the lid 7 and corresponds to the switch button. When the lid 7 is opened, the push rod releases the switch button, and the control module 4 enters the working state; when the lid 7 is closed, the push rod pushes the switch button, and the control module 4 enters the sleep state. This mechanical lid opening detection device has a simple structure and reliable operation.

[0028] The control module 4 acquires the water temperature T detected by the temperature sensor 6 and compares it with preset room temperature threshold C1 and high temperature threshold C2. If T < C1, the tri-color light module 3 emits light of the first color; if C1 ≤ T ≤ C2, the tri-color light module 3 emits light of the second color; if T > C2, the tri-color light module 3 emits light of the third color. The first, second, and third colors are all different, allowing the user to intuitively understand the temperature of the liquid in the cup by observing the color of the spout.

[0029] The room temperature threshold C1 is set at 40℃, and the high temperature threshold C2 is set at 50℃. This temperature threshold setting conforms to the human body's perception of beverage temperature. Beverages below 40℃ are suitable for direct consumption, beverages between 40℃ and 50℃ are hot but can be sipped, and beverages above 50℃ are too hot and need to be cooled before consumption.

[0030] The tri-color light module 3 uses three LEDs: blue, green, and red. Blue indicates the liquid is cool enough to drink directly; green indicates the liquid is at a moderate temperature and should be consumed with caution; and red indicates the liquid is too hot and should be allowed to cool down before drinking. This color design aligns with intuitive human perception: blue represents cold, green represents moderate, and red represents hot, allowing users to easily understand the liquid's temperature.

[0031] The side wall of the cup lid body 1 is also provided with a charging port 10 for charging the battery 5. The charging port 10 allows users to easily charge the battery 5 inside the cup lid body 1 without frequent battery replacement, thus improving the product's ease of use and environmental friendliness.

[0032] This utility model's temperature-sensing, light-guiding straw cup lid uses a temperature sensor 6 to detect the liquid temperature in the cup in real time, and uses a three-color light module 3 and a light-guiding spout 2 to visually indicate the liquid temperature status to the user in different colors, effectively preventing scalding accidents. At the same time, the lid-opening detection device and sleep / wake mechanism effectively extend battery life and improve the product's practicality.

[0033] The above description is merely a specific example of this utility model and does not constitute any limitation on this utility model. Obviously, those skilled in the art, after understanding the content and principle of this utility model, may make various modifications and changes in form and details without departing from the principle and structure of this utility model. However, these modifications and changes based on the concept of this utility model are still within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
