Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of multifunctional cup technology, and in particular relates to a dual-purpose cup for brewing tea and coffee. Background Technology

[0002] Many people enjoy both tea and coffee, but brewing tea and pour-over coffee usually requires different tools.

[0003] To brew tea, you first need to soak the tea leaves in hot water for a certain period of time, and then use a filter to separate the tea leaves from the water. Usually, a combination of a water cup and a filter cup is used. First, place the filter cup in the water cup, put the tea leaves in the filter cup, add water to brew, and then take out the filter cup to separate the tea leaves from the water. Then you can drink the tea directly from the water cup.

[0004] Pour-over coffee typically uses an upward-opening conical filter. It is placed above the mouth of a water cup via a wide base. Filter paper is then placed inside the filter, coffee grounds are poured in, and boiling water is poured in. The coffee drips through the holes at the bottom of the filter into the water cup below. The filter is then removed, and the coffee is drunk from the water cup.

[0005] Existing tea brewing tools generally consist of three parts: a water cup, a filter cup, and a lid. The filter cup can only be placed completely inside the water cup for brewing tea and cannot be used to brew coffee.

[0006] Existing pour-over coffee tools generally use a conical filter, which can only be placed on the rim of the cup and is usually only used for brewing coffee, not for making tea.

[0007] People usually need to prepare two different sets of tools when they want to brew tea and pour coffee, which is especially inconvenient when outdoors. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a cup that can be used for both brewing tea and pouring coffee. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a dual-purpose cup for brewing tea and coffee, so as to solve the technical problem that people usually need to prepare two different sets of tools when brewing tea and pouring coffee.

[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a dual-purpose cup for brewing tea and coffee, including a cup body and a filter cup. The filter cup can be placed in the cup body, or it can be rotated and snapped onto or placed on the rim of the cup body. The filter cup is provided with multiple filter holes and multiple protruding posts. The multiple protruding posts are used to stably snap the filter cup onto or place it on the rim of the cup body.

[0010] Preferably, the filter cup is a cylindrical shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the filter cup includes an upper half that has the same shape as the cup body and a lower half that gradually narrows downward.

[0011] Preferably, the plurality of protruding posts are located at the lower outer periphery of the upper half.

[0012] Preferably, the lower half is provided with a plurality of filter holes.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the filter cup is provided with a support portion to support the filter cup so that it can be placed stably alone without tipping over.

[0014] Preferably, it also includes a cup lid, the inside of which has a groove with the same shape as the support portion, the groove engaging with the support portion to support the filter cup to be stably placed on the cup lid.

[0015] Preferably, the cup body is a prismatic cup, and the protruding post is located at the protrusion extending downward from the edge of the filter cup.

[0016] Preferably, the filter cup has an outward protrusion at the edge of its rim to facilitate fixing and removing the filter cup.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention can be used to brew tea and make hand-drip coffee, offering two uses in one, making it simple and practical. When you want to enjoy two kinds of drinks, you don't have to prepare two sets of tools.

[0018] This utility model example uses a set of quadrangular prism-shaped water cups and filter cups with rounded edges, as well as a matching cup lid. The upper part of the filter cup is quadrangular prism-shaped, and the lower part is quadrangular inverted pyramid-shaped. The filter cup can be placed inside the water cup. Each edge of the upper part of the filter cup has a downwardly extended protrusion on its lower side. When the filter cup is rotated so that its straight edge and the straight edge of the water cup form a certain angle when it is placed into the water cup, the protrusion on the lower side of the edge of the filter cup can just be locked or supported on the straight edge of the water cup, so that the filter cup can be stably placed on the cup mouth.

[0019] The matching cup lid of this utility model has a groove on the inside of the cup, which is the same shape as the bottom of the inverted pyramid-shaped filter cup. This allows the filter cup to be placed stably on the cup lid. When making tea or coffee, the cup lid can be turned upside down and placed on the table. This will prevent water from dripping onto the table and ensure that any part that comes into contact with the water is not contaminated, keeping it clean and hygienic.

[0020] When this utility model is used as a tea brewing tool, the filter cup is completely placed inside the water cup, and tea leaves and water are added directly into the filter cup. After brewing, the filter cup is removed, and the tea is drunk from the water cup.

[0021] When this invention is used as a pour-over coffee tool, the filter cup is rotated so that the protruding post on the filter cup can rest on the mouth of the cup. Then, the filter paper and coffee powder are placed in the filter cup, hot water is poured in, and finally the filter cup is removed, and the coffee is drunk from a water cup.
