Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure pertains to the field of smart home technology, and specifically relates to a sealed, wear-resistant water cup. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards and the diversification of consumer demands, water cups have evolved from simple liquid containers into everyday items that combine functionality, portability, and safety, and are widely used in homes, offices, and outdoors. In the structural design of various water cups, the sealing component is a key part that ensures its core function, directly determining the cup's leak-proof performance and safety.

[0003] Existing water cups are prone to failure due to continuous friction between the seal and the rim during long-term use. The rough rim accelerates wear and tear, leading to leakage. The silicone debris and dirt accumulated during wear pose safety hazards and increase the resistance to opening and closing. Utility Model Content

The sealing element is configured such that when the cup lid rotates relative to the cup body under the action of an external force, after the sealing element comes into contact with the cup mouth of the cup body, the sealing element does not rotate with the cup lid relative to the cup body under the action of friction.

[0006] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the sealed anti-wear water cup further includes: A rotating base, which is detachably mounted on the cup lid and rotates relative to the cup body with the cup lid; A support member is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat, and a sealing member is disposed on the support member.

[0010] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the locking mechanism includes: A locking element is rotatably mounted on the cup lid body, and a first hook is provided at one end; A push rod, which is rotatably mounted on the cup lid body; A first elastic element is preset between the locking element and the push rod, and is configured to cause the first hook of the locking element to be in a locked position under the action of elastic force. The push rod is also configured to overcome the elastic force of the first elastic element under the action of the drive unit and push the locking member to rotate until the first hook is disengaged from the second hook on the intermediate connector.

[0011] In one embodiment of this disclosure, the driving unit includes: A fingerprint sensor is disposed on the cup lid body; The motor is mounted on the cup lid body and is communicatively connected to the fingerprint sensor.

[0015] One of the beneficial effects of this disclosure is that the sealed anti-wear water cup of this disclosure sets the sealing element on the cup lid to be rotatable relative to the cup lid. When the cup lid rotates relative to the cup body under the action of external force, as long as the sealing element and the cup mouth of the cup body come into contact, the sealing element can not rotate with the cup lid under the action of friction, thereby avoiding continuous friction between the sealing element and the cup mouth of the cup body. In this way, this disclosure solves the problem of water seepage and dripping caused by friction from the root. There is no risk of water leakage under tilting, shaking, inversion, or even violent exercise scenarios. The sealing stability is not affected by the number of opening and closing. At the same time, there are no scratches or grooves on the surface of the sealing element, reducing the residue of dirt. Attached Figure Description

[0027] With the improvement of living standards and the diversification of consumer demands, water cups have evolved from simple liquid containers into everyday items that combine functionality, portability, and safety, and are widely used in homes, offices, and outdoors. In the structural design of various water cups, the sealing component is a key part that ensures its core function, directly determining the cup's leak-proof performance and safety.

[0028] Existing water cups are prone to failure due to continuous friction between the seal and the rim during long-term use. The rough rim accelerates wear and tear, leading to leakage. The silicone debris and dirt accumulated during wear pose safety hazards and increase the resistance to opening and closing.

[0029] Therefore, this disclosure provides a sealed and anti-wear water cup, specifically including a cup body, a cup lid, and a sealing element. The cup lid is rotatably closed or separated from the cup body. The sealing element is disposed on the cup lid and is configured such that when the cup lid rotates relative to the cup body under the action of external force, after the sealing element comes into contact with the cup mouth of the cup body, the sealing element does not rotate relative to the cup body under the action of friction.

[0030] The disclosed sealed anti-wear water cup features a rotatable seal on the lid. When the lid rotates relative to the cup body under external force, the seal remains stationary due to friction once it comes into contact with the cup rim. This prevents continuous friction between the seal and the cup rim, thus addressing the root cause of water leakage and dripping. There is no risk of leakage even under tilting, shaking, inversion, or vigorous movement. The sealing stability is unaffected by the number of openings and closings. Furthermore, the seal surface is free of scratches and grooves, reducing stain residue.

[0031] For ease of understanding, please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 7 The structure and working principle of the sealed anti-wear water cup provided in this disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0032] In one embodiment, the sealed anti-wear water cup of this disclosure includes a cup body, a cup lid, and a sealing element 1021. The cup lid is rotatably closed or detached from the cup body. The sealing element 1021 is disposed on the cup lid and is configured such that when the cup lid rotates relative to the cup body under the action of an external force, after the sealing element 1021 abuts against the cup mouth 211 of the cup body, the sealing element 1021 does not rotate with the cup lid relative to the cup body under the action of friction.

[0033] In detail, the cup body and lid of this disclosure are rotatably closed or separated, avoiding the bias pressure that may occur with axial pressing closure. Compared with a single-point snap-fit ​​structure, the force of the rotatable connection is more even, and the connecting parts are less likely to deform or break due to frequent opening and closing.

[0034] Furthermore, combined Figure 2 The cup lid of this disclosure is also provided with a sealing element 1021. When the cup lid is closed with the cup body, the sealing element 1021 is axially compressed under the pressure of the cup lid, which can completely seal the cup opening 211 and prevent liquid from leaking through capillary action or gravity. Furthermore, the sealing element 1021 is designed to be rotatable relative to the cup lid, so that when the cup lid rotates relative to the cup body under the action of external force, as long as the sealing element 1021 and the cup opening 211 of the cup body come into contact, there is friction between them. Therefore, under the action of friction, the sealing element 1021 does not rotate with the cup lid, thereby avoiding continuous friction between the sealing element 1021 and the cup opening 211 of the cup body.

[0035] Thus, this invention fundamentally solves the problem of water seepage and leakage caused by friction. Whether in everyday scenarios such as tilting, shaking, or inversion, or in operating conditions such as vigorous exercise, there is no risk of leakage, and the sealing stability does not decrease with increased opening and closing frequency, maintaining high-efficiency sealing performance over a long period. At the same time, the surface of the seal 1021 is not prone to scratches and grooves, effectively reducing stain residue and minimizing the risk of bacterial growth.

[0036] The core material of the seal 1021 is food-grade silicone rubber. Its dense molecular structure and low coefficient of friction can reduce mechanical wear when rotating and fitting with the cup mouth 211, avoiding scratches and grooves on the surface. It has a high elastic recovery rate, which can ensure that the seal 1021 maintains its deformation ability for a long time under a certain amount of compression, accurately sealing the cup mouth 211. There is no leakage regardless of tilting, shaking, inversion or violent movement. The surface is smooth and dense, not easy to leave stains or breed bacteria, and is easy to clean.

[0037] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the sealed anti-wear water cup of this disclosure further includes a rotating seat 1022 and a support member 1023. The rotating seat 1022 is detachably disposed on the cup lid and rotates with the cup lid relative to the cup body. The support member 1023 is rotatably sleeved on the rotating seat 1022, and the sealing member 1021 is disposed on the support member 1023.

[0038] In detail, the rotating seat 1022 of this disclosure is circular and adapted to the cup lid. An installation strip is provided radially on the upper side. The installation strip is interference-fitted with the cup lid, thereby snapping the rotating seat 1022 onto the cup lid. This allows the rotating seat 1022 to rotate with the cup lid relative to the cup body. At the same time, the rotating seat 1022 is located directly above the cup mouth 211. Thus, the support member 1023, which is rotatably sleeved on the rotating seat 1022, is also located directly above the cup mouth 211. This aligns the sealing member 1021, which is fixedly mounted on the support member 1023, with the cup mouth 211. When the cup lid is closed with the cup body, the sealing member 1021 is squeezed by the cup mouth 211, thereby sealing the cup mouth 211.

[0039] In this way, when the cup lid rotates together with the rotating seat 1022, if the sealing element 1021 is not in contact with the cup mouth 211, and the support element 1023 is suspended on the rotating seat 1022, the cup lid will drive the support element 1023 and the sealing element 1021 on the support element 1023 to rotate together under the action of gravity. If the sealing element 1021 is in contact with the cup mouth 211, due to the silicone rubber properties of the sealing element 1021, there is friction between the sealing element 1021 and the cup mouth 211, which hinders the rotation of the sealing element 1021. Since the support element 1023 is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat 1022, the sealing element 1021 and the support element 1023 remain relatively stationary with the cup mouth 211 under the action of friction. This avoids the existing water cup where the sealing element 1021 rotates together with the cup lid when it rotates, causing friction with the cup mouth 211 and resulting in continuous wear, irreversible deformation, and eventually complete damage.

[0040] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, the rotating seat 1022 of this disclosure is configured as a stepped shaft, the rotating seat 1022 is detachably mounted on the cup lid via a small shaft segment, and the support member 1023 is annular, the support member 1023 being sleeved on the small shaft segment with a gap.

[0041] In detail, the rotary seat 1022 of this disclosure is a stepped shaft, specifically, in conjunction with Figure 4 The upper side of the small section of the stepped shaft is equipped with an installation strip to snap into the cup lid, combined with... Figure 5 The small shaft section is used to make clearance fit with the annular support 1023, so that the support 1023 can rotate relative to the rotating seat 1022. Furthermore, the shoulder of the stepped shaft is used to suspend the support 1023, thereby providing a platform for the support 1023 and preventing the support 1023, which is in clearance fit with the small shaft section, from falling off.

[0042] At the same time, combined Figure 2The support member 1023 has an annular protrusion extending upward along the axial direction from its central hole, and a stepped platform extending downward along the axial direction from the cup lid. The small platform section of this stepped platform has the same diameter as the small shaft section of the rotating seat 1022. The annular protrusion on the support member 1023 is in clearance fit with both the small shaft section and the small platform section. When the cup lid rotates and becomes skewed, it prevents the skew force on the support member 1023 from acting only on the small shaft section of the rotating seat 1022, which would cause the mounting strip of the rotating seat 1022 to bear radial stress, thereby loosening or even causing it to crack.

[0043] Furthermore, the stepped platform and the rotating seat 1022 are fitted with the support member 1023 with the same clearance in the axial direction, ensuring that the support member 1023 can rotate relative to the rotating seat 1022 without being jammed by the two.

[0044] See Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the sealing element 1021 of this disclosure is an elastic sealing element. The mating surface of the sealing element 1021 that abuts against the cup mouth 211 is an arc surface that protrudes in the direction of the cup mouth 211. The sealing element 1021 has a plurality of elastic mounting rods, which are elastically inserted into the mounting holes of the support element 1023.

[0045] In detail, the sealing element 1021 has an arcuate surface protruding towards the cup opening 211, forming a line contact seal with the edge of the cup opening 211. When the cup body and the cup lid are closed, the uniform deformation of the arcuate surface precisely fills the gap. Furthermore, the sealing element 1021 has several elastic mounting rods, which are elastically inserted into the mounting holes of the support element 1023. During installation, the elastic deformation of the elastic mounting rods enables quick positioning and assembly. After assembly, the rebound tension of the elastic mounting rods firmly fixes the sealing element 1021 to the support element 1023, preventing the sealing element 1021 from shifting or tilting when the sealed anti-wear water cup of this disclosure is opened, closed, or shaken violently. Meanwhile, the end of the elastic mounting rod abuts against the cup lid, and its buffering characteristics can absorb the instantaneous impact force when the lid is closed, avoiding excessive impact between the support 1023 and the cup lid when the lid is closed, reducing the hard friction between the seal 1021 and the cup mouth 211. Combined with the guiding effect of the arc surface of the seal 1021, the seal 1021 is always kept coaxially fitted with the cup mouth 211, which not only ensures the uniformity of sealing pressure, but also further extends the service life of the seal 1021.

[0046] See Figure 2 and Figure 7In one embodiment, the cup lid of this disclosure includes an intermediate connector 11, a cup lid body 10, and a locking mechanism. The intermediate connector 11 is configured to rotatably close or separate from the cup body, and the cup opening 211 extends through the intermediate connector 11. The cup lid body 10 is rotatably connected to the intermediate connector 11 and is provided with a sealing element 1021. The locking mechanism is provided on the cup lid body 10 and is configured to lock or unlock the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connector 11 under the action of the driving unit.

[0047] In detail, the cup lid body 10 of this disclosure is rotatably closed or separated from the cup body through the intermediate connector 11, thereby ensuring uniform axial sealing pressure and making the seal 1021 and the cup mouth 211 fit tightly, completely blocking the liquid leakage path. Even if the water cup of this disclosure undergoes violent movement or is inverted for a long time, it can prevent the cup lid from accidentally coming loose. At the same time, the cup lid body 10 of this disclosure is rotatably set on the intermediate connector 11 and is provided with the seal 1021. The cup mouth 211 extends through the intermediate connector 11, so that when the cup lid body 10 is closed on the intermediate connector 11, the seal 1021 abuts against the cup mouth 211. Therefore, when drinking water frequently in daily life, it is not necessary to completely unscrew the cup lid. You only need to open the cup lid body 10 to drink water, avoiding the loss or contamination of the unscrewed cup lid.

[0048] Furthermore, combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 The intermediate connector 11 of this disclosure has a rotating shaft on one side and a torsion spring sleeved on the rotating shaft. At the same time, the cup lid body 10 of this disclosure has a rotating shaft seat on the same side. The two ends of the rotating shaft are inserted into the shaft holes of the rotating shaft seat and fixed, so that the cup lid body 10 can rotate and open relative to the intermediate connector 11.

[0049] Furthermore, since the cup lid body 10 of this disclosure can rotate relative to the intermediate connecting member 11, and the cup lid body 10 is provided with a support member 1023 and a sealing member 1021, the sealing member 1021 on the cup lid body 10 is not in perpendicular contact with the cup mouth 211. The sealing member 1021 and the support member 1023 will be subjected to oblique force. This disclosure provides a frustum on the cup lid body 10 that can support the support member 1023, so as to avoid the support member 1023 tilting under the pressure of the cup mouth 211 or even causing the mounting strip of the rotating platform to be subjected to local stress and cracks.

[0050] See Figure 2 and Figure 3In one embodiment, the locking mechanism of this disclosure includes a locking member 121, a push rod 122, and a first elastic element 123. The locking member 121 is rotatably disposed on the cup lid body 10, and a first hook 1211 is provided at one end. The push rod 122 is rotatably disposed on the cup lid body 10. The first elastic element 123 is preset between the locking member 121 and the push rod 122, and is configured to position the first hook 1211 of the locking member 121 in a locked position under the action of elastic force. The push rod 122 is also configured to push the locking member 121 to rotate under the action of the drive unit, overcoming the elastic force of the first elastic element 123, until the first hook 1211 disengages from the second hook 111 on the intermediate connecting member 11.

[0051] In detail, the locking element 121 of this disclosure is fixed on a rotating shaft and rotatably mounted on the cup lid body 10 via the rotating shaft, forming a stable rotational support structure. One end of the locking element 121 is provided with a first hook 1211, the structural dimensions of which are adapted to the second hook 111 on the intermediate connecting member 11, achieving a locking function through the hook engagement. The other end of the locking element 121 adopts an arc-shaped structure that surrounds one side of the push rod 122. Simultaneously, a first elastic element 123 is provided on the side of the locking element 121 opposite to the push rod 122. One end of this elastic element abuts against the locking element 121, and the other end abuts against the cup lid body 10, providing a continuous pre-tightening elastic force to the locking element 121, keeping the first hook 1211 engaged and locked with the second hook 111.

[0052] In one embodiment, the first elastic element 123 of this disclosure is a torsion spring, which is sleeved on the rotating shaft of the locking member 121. One end of the arm abuts against the cup lid body 10, and the other end of the arm abuts against the locking member 121. It is pre-pressed between the cup lid body 10 and the locking member 121. Under the action of the driving unit, the push rod 122 pushes the locking member 121 to rotate, thereby squeezing the torsion spring. When the arm abutting against the locking member 121 rotates around the central axis, the spring wire undergoes elastic torsional deformation, storing the torque in the form of elastic potential energy. After the first hook 1211 and the second hook 111 are unlocked, the driving unit no longer drives the push rod 122 to move. The torsion spring returns to its original shape, releases the stored energy, and causes the arm to return to the initial position, generating a reset torque, thereby resetting the locking member 121 and the push rod 122.

[0053] Furthermore, the push rod 122 is keyed or interference-fitted and fixed on the flat shaft 135. When the drive unit is triggered, it drives the flat shaft 135 to rotate, which in turn drives the push rod 122 to rotate. The push rod 122 then applies a pushing force to the circumferential side of the locking member 121, forcing the locking member 121 to overcome the elastic force of the first elastic element 123 and rotate around the rotation axis. As the locking member 121 rotates, its first hook 1211 disengages from the second hook 111 on the intermediate connecting member 11, thus unlocking. When the force of the drive unit is removed, the first elastic element 123 releases its elastic potential energy, driving the locking member 121 to rotate in the opposite direction and reset. The first hook 1211 and the second hook 111 re-engage, restoring the lock.

[0054] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the driving unit of this disclosure includes a fingerprint sensor 131 and a motor 132. The fingerprint sensor 131 is disposed on the cup lid body 10; the motor 132 is disposed on the cup lid body 10 and is communicatively connected to the fingerprint sensor 131, and after the fingerprint sensor 131 is triggered, it drives the push rod 122 to rotate through the transmission mechanism.

[0055] In detail, the driving unit of this disclosure is set on the cup lid body 10, including a fingerprint sensor 131 and a motor 132. At the same time, the cup lid body 10 of this disclosure is also provided with a control unit. First, the fingerprint sensor 131 collects the user's fingerprint features through capacitive sensing and quickly compares them with the authorized fingerprint information pre-stored in the control unit. Only when the fingerprint verification is successful will the subsequent unlocking action be triggered, thereby preventing others from opening the cup from the source, ensuring drinking water safety and avoiding accidental drinking.

[0056] After the fingerprint sensor 131 verifies the fingerprint, it sends an electrical signal command to the motor 132. The motor 132 starts after receiving the sensor command and drives the push rod 122 to rotate through the transmission mechanism. This drives the locking component 121 on the cup lid body 10 to disengage the first hook 1211 from the second hook 111, thus achieving an automated process without the need for manual force.

[0057] See Figure 2 In one embodiment, the cup lid body 10 of this disclosure includes a cup lid cover 101 and a cup lid connector 102. A transmission mechanism is provided in the installation space of the cup lid cover 101; the cup lid connector 102 is provided in the installation space, and a locking mechanism is provided on the cup lid connector 102.

[0058] In detail, the fingerprint sensor 131 disclosed herein is disposed on the cup lid cover 101, so as to facilitate the user to collect fingerprints and open the cup lid body 10.

[0059] Furthermore, combined Figure 3The transmission mechanism disclosed herein includes a first helical gear 133, a second helical gear 134, and a bushing. The first helical gear 133 is mounted on the output shaft of the motor 132, and the second helical gear 134 is mounted on the bushing and meshes with the first helical gear 133. Subsequently, the flat shaft 135 of the push rod 122 is mounted inside the bushing and is interference-fitted with the bushing. Thus, after the motor 132 of this disclosure starts, the output shaft drives the first helical gear 133 to rotate synchronously. By utilizing the deceleration and torque-increasing characteristics of the helical gear meshing, the high speed and low torque of the motor 132 are converted into the low speed and high torque of the second helical gear 134. This satisfies the driving force required for unlocking the locking element 121 while avoiding excessive torque that could cause structural damage. At the same time, the meshing of the two helical gears can realize the conversion of the power transmission direction, so that the output shaft of the motor 132 and the flat shaft 135 are arranged at a preset angle, which is suitable for the layout requirements of the narrow space inside the cup cover 101. Moreover, the meshing surface has a large contact area and the transmission is smooth.

[0060] When the second helical gear 134 rotates, it drives the bushing to rotate synchronously. Through the connection between the bushing and the flat shaft 135, it drives the push rod 122 to rotate, thereby applying a uniform thrust to the locking member 121, forcing the locking member 121 to overcome the preload of the first elastic element 123 and rotate around the rotation axis until the first hook 1211 and the second hook 111 are completely disengaged, completing the unlocking action.

[0061] See Figure 2 and Figure 7 In one embodiment, the sealed anti-wear water cup of this disclosure further includes a pop-out mechanism, which is configured to unlock the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connector 11, and pop the cup lid body 10 away from the intermediate connector 11.

[0062] In detail, the pop-up mechanism of this disclosure is set on the side of the intermediate connector 11 opposite to the cup lid body 10. When the locking mechanism between the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connector 11 is released, the pop-up mechanism relies on its own pre-stored elastic potential energy to drive the cup lid body 10 to automatically pop open around the axis of the preset rotating shaft. Furthermore, through the torsion spring set on the rotating shaft, a reverse constraint force is provided for the cup lid body 10 during the pop-up process, effectively limiting the maximum pop-up angle of the cup lid body 10, avoiding structural collision damage or poor user experience due to excessive pop-up angle, ensuring that the opening process of the cup lid body 10 is stable and controllable, and always within the preset safe use angle range.

[0063] See Figure 2 and Figure 7In one embodiment, the pop-up mechanism of this disclosure includes a push rod 141 and a second elastic element 142. The push rod 141 is movably disposed on the intermediate connector 11. The second elastic element 142 is disposed on the push rod 141 and the intermediate connector 11. The push rod 141 is configured such that when the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connector 11 are locked, the cup lid body 10 is pressed by the cup lid body 10, causing the second elastic element 142 to be in a compressed state. When the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connector 11 are unlocked, the cup lid body 10 is pushed open by the elastic force of the second elastic element 142. In one embodiment, the second elastic element 142 is a compression spring and is pre-compressed and sleeved on the push rod 141. In conjunction with the locking mechanism of this disclosure, when the fingerprint unlocks, the compression spring releases elastic potential energy to push the cup lid body 10 to pop up. When the cup lid body 10 is closed, the compression spring is pressed by the cup lid body 10, storing elastic potential energy. In this way, the second elastic element 142 can maintain stable elastic performance in repeated compression and reset cycles.

[0064] In detail, the intermediate connector 11 of this disclosure is fixedly connected to a top rod 141 seat, and a second elastic element 142 is provided on the top rod 141 seat through a spring column. The top rod 141 is sleeved on the second elastic element 142. At the same time, the intermediate connector 11 is provided with a through hole, and the cup lid body 10 has a pressing element.

[0065] When the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connecting piece 11 are locked, the pressing piece on the cup lid body 10 is pressed into the through hole, and the push rod 141 is pressed by the cup lid body 10, so that the second elastic element 142 is in a compressed state. When the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connecting piece 11 are unlocked, the push rod 141, under the action of the elastic force of the second elastic element 142, springs into the through hole and pushes up the pressing piece, thereby pushing the cup lid body 10 to open.

[0066] Furthermore, the intermediate connecting member 11 of this disclosure is provided with an internal gear surrounding the lifting structure, and a protruding rack is provided on the push rod 141. Thus, when the push rod 141 springs up under the action of the second elastic element 142, its rack can mesh with the corresponding internal gear, thereby enhancing the stability of the push rod 141.

[0067] See Figure 2 In one embodiment, the cup body of this disclosure includes a main body 20 and a main body connector 21. The main body 20 is connected to the intermediate connector 11 by a thread and has an opening. The main body connector 21 is interference-fitted with the opening and has a cup mouth 211 and an annular groove 212 surrounding the cup mouth 211, so that when the intermediate connector 11 rotates, the spring-opening mechanism rotates in the annular groove 212.

[0068] In detail, the cup body includes a main body 20 and a main body connector 21. The main body 20 and the intermediate connector 11 are detachably connected by a threaded connection. This threaded connection structure features a stable connection and convenient assembly and disassembly, effectively ensuring the sealing performance of the assembly between the main body 20 and the intermediate connector 11. An opening is constructed on the main body 20, allowing the main body connector 21 to be press-fitted with the opening. Simultaneously, a sealing structure exists between the main body 20 and the main body connector 21 to prevent liquid leakage from the opening. The cup opening 211 of this disclosure is located on the main body connector 21. Therefore, the cup opening 211 of this disclosure can extend through the intermediate connector 11, and thus, when the cup lid body 10 and the intermediate connector 11 are closed, it abuts against the sealing element 1021 on the cup lid connector 102, sealing the cup opening 211.

[0069] Furthermore, the main body connector 21 is constructed with an annular groove 212 surrounding the cup mouth 211. The upper end of the outer edge of the annular groove 212 abuts against the intermediate connector 11. A spring-loaded mechanism is provided in the annular groove 212. Thus, when the intermediate connector 11 rotates, the spring-loaded mechanism fixedly provided on the intermediate connector 11 can rotate in the annular groove 212 without being blocked by the cup body.
