Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water cup drinking structure technology, and in particular to a knob-type drinking structure that can switch between direct drinking and sipping. Background Technology

[0002] As we all know, a water cup is a container used to hold drinking water. Especially for carrying it when going out, water cups are usually designed in a cylindrical shape with a lid on top. To drink water, you need to open the lid to expose the drinking spout.

[0003] Currently, the design of drinking spouts for water cups generally falls into two categories: direct drinking, which involves a single spout for direct drinking, and sipping, which uses a straw placed inside the cup with the other end attached to the lid for sipping. To simultaneously satisfy both direct drinking and sipping needs, some water cups combine these two structures. For example, patent number 201580004239.9 discloses a lid suitable for containers that integrates direct drinking and sipping. However, this patent directly integrates the direct drinking and sipping structures, each with a separate spout, requiring the user to select the correct spout for either direct drinking or sipping. Furthermore, both the direct drinking spout and the sipping spout are always open, which can cause some problems when drinking water. For example, when drinking directly, water in the straw may flow out of the sipping spout, while when sipping, water in the cup may flow out of the direct drinking spout. No matter which spout is selected, there will be water leakage, which will cause inconvenience to users in actual use.

[0004] Therefore, structural optimization is needed for the existing drinking water system. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a knob-type drinking structure that can switch between direct drinking and sipping.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A knob-type drinking structure that can switch between direct drinking and sipping includes a cup body and a lid that can be sealed onto the cup body. The lid has a drinking spout, one end of which is a water outlet located on the outer end face of the lid. The lower end of the drinking spout is located on the inner end face of the lid and has a sipping inlet and a direct drinking outlet. The sipping inlet and the direct drinking outlet are simultaneously connected to the water outlet. The direct drinking outlet is a flat opening. The lid has a knob, the knob cap of which is located on the outer end face of the lid. The other end of the knob is located on the inner end face of the lid and has a cover plate. When the knob is rotated, the end of the cover plate can cover the direct drinking outlet. A straw is inserted into the sipping outlet.

[0008] Preferably, the cover plate has an upwardly protruding boss relative to the part used to cover the drinking spout.

[0009] Preferably, the edges of the bosses are all rounded.

[0010] Preferably, the cover is provided with a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate at the movement trajectory of the cover plate. When the first limiting plate touches the cover plate, the cover plate is completely removed from the drinking port. When the second limiting plate touches the cover plate, the cover plate covers the drinking port, and the protrusion is embedded in the drinking port.

[0011] Preferably, the knob has a protrusion on its side where it connects to the cover plate, and the second limiting plate has a latch for locking the protrusion. When the protrusion is engaged in the latch, the cover plate is completely removed from the drinking spout.

[0012] Preferably, the cover is provided with a dust cover for covering the water outlet.

[0013] Preferably, the dust cover is hinged to the cover body.

[0014] Preferably, the drinking spout is made of soft rubber.

[0015] Preferably, the drinking spout has a ring opening on its side, the cover passes through the mounting opening, and the drinking spout is pressed to engage the ring opening with the mounting opening, so that the drinking spout is installed on the cover.

[0016] Because of the above-mentioned solution, this utility model not only has two drinking methods, direct drinking and sipping, but also uses a single spout for both the sipping and direct drinking ports. This allows for direct drinking even when water flows out of the straw. Furthermore, a knob and a cover are provided. The direct drinking port can be covered by rotating the knob externally. When only sipping is needed, the direct drinking port can be covered to prevent it from communicating with the cavity above the water surface, thus preventing water from being drawn out. It also prevents water from flowing directly out of the direct drinking port when tilting to drink. Attached Figure Description

[0027] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a knob-type drinking structure that can switch between direct drinking and sipping, including a cup body 1 and a lid 2 that can be sealed to the cup body 1. The lid 2 is provided with a drinking spout 3, which is preferably made of soft rubber. One end of the drinking spout 3 is a water outlet 31 and is placed on the outer end face of the lid 2. The lower end of the drinking spout 3 is placed on the inner end face of the lid 2 and is provided with a drinking inlet 32 ​​and a direct drinking outlet 33. The drinking inlet 32 ​​and the direct drinking outlet 33 are connected to the water outlet 31. The direct drinking outlet 33 is a flat opening. The lid 2 is provided with a knob 4. The knob 4 cap is placed on the outer end face of the lid 2. The other end of the knob 4 is placed on the inner end face of the lid 2 and is provided with a cover plate 5. After the knob 4 is rotated, the end of the cover plate 5 can cover the direct drinking outlet 33. A straw 34 is inserted into the drinking inlet 32. It should be noted that the cover plate 5 needs to exert a force to press firmly against the drinking spout 33. Therefore, during installation, it needs to be slightly lower than the drinking spout 33. After rotation, the material of the cover plate 5 will deform. After the cover plate 5 is aligned, it can cover the drinking spout 33.

[0028] This embodiment not only provides both direct drinking and sipping methods, but also shares a single spout 31 for the sipping port 32 and the direct drinking port 33. This allows for direct drinking even when water flows out of the straw 34. Furthermore, a knob 4 and a cover plate 5 are provided. The direct drinking port 33 can be covered by rotating the knob 4 externally. When only sipping is needed, the direct drinking port 33 can be covered to prevent it from communicating with the cavity above the water surface, thus preventing water from being drawn out. It also prevents water from flowing directly out of the direct drinking port 33 when tilting to drink.

[0029] In actual use, you can choose to drink directly or sip according to your preference. When you choose to drink directly, turn the knob 4 to keep the cover plate 5 from covering the drinking spout 33. The water in the cup will flow from the drinking spout 33 into the spout 31. Even if water flows out of the straw 34, it will also flow into the spout 31. You can drink directly by simply pointing your mouth at the spout 31.

[0030] When you need to drink, turn the knob 4 to cover the drinking spout 33 with the cover plate 5. When drinking, because the drinking spout 33 is blocked, only the straw 34 is connected to the liquid in the cup body 1, so the user can drink by putting their mouth to the spout 31.

[0031] Furthermore, to better cover the drinking spout 33, the cover plate 5 in this embodiment has an upwardly protruding boss 51 relative to the part used to cover the drinking spout 33. Therefore, when the knob 4 is rotated, when the cover plate 5 covers the drinking spout 33, the boss 51 will be inserted into the drinking spout 33, which will achieve a better sealing effect. In addition, in order to facilitate rotation to the drinking spout 33, the edges of the boss 5 in this embodiment are all rounded.

[0032] Furthermore, to prevent the cover plate 5 from rotating outside the specified range, the cover body 2 in this embodiment is provided with a first limiting plate 21 and a second limiting plate 22 at the movement trajectory of the cover plate 5. When the first limiting plate 21 contacts the cover plate 5, the cover plate 5 is completely removed from the drinking port 33. When the second limiting plate 22 contacts the cover plate 5, the cover plate 5 covers the drinking port 33, and the protrusion 51 is embedded in the drinking port 33.

[0033] Furthermore, in order to prevent the cover plate 5 from automatically rotating and accidentally covering the drinking spout 33 during direct drinking, the knob 4 in this embodiment is provided with a protrusion 41 on the side where it connects with the cover plate 5. The second limiting plate 22 is provided with a locking slot 42 for locking the protrusion 41. When the protrusion 41 is engaged in the locking slot 42, the cover plate 5 is completely removed from the drinking spout 33. In this way, the knob 4 can be locked from rotating by itself by relying on the locking between the protrusion 41 and the locking slot 42, thus achieving the locking function.

[0034] Furthermore, to prevent external contamination of the water outlet 31, a dust cover 6 is provided on the cover 2 of this embodiment to cover the water outlet 31. This dust cover 6 isolates the water outlet 31 from the outside environment when not in use. To ensure timely access to the dust cover 6, it is hinged to the cover 2, making it an integral part of the cover 2. This prevents loss and allows for easy coverage of the water outlet 31. The dust cover 6 can be tightly fitted over the water outlet 31. After the dust cover 6 is closed, a storage groove 7 can be provided on the cover 2, allowing the dust cover 6 to be securely fastened within it.

[0035] Furthermore, the drinking spout 3 is made of soft rubber. To facilitate the installation of the drinking spout 3 and the cover 2, in this embodiment, the drinking spout 3 has a ring-shaped opening 35 on its side. The cover 2 passes through an installation port 36, and the drinking spout 3 is pressed to engage the ring-shaped opening 35 with the installation port 36, thus installing the drinking spout 3 onto the cover 2. This allows for quick installation thanks to the properties of the soft rubber material.

[0036] In addition, it should be noted that a vent hole 8 should be provided at the cup lid 2. This is mainly to allow gas to enter when drinking water. After the dust cover 6 is closed, the vent hole 8 can be covered, or a protruding post 9 can be provided and inserted into the vent hole 8 to block it.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
