Description

[0001] PH BALANCING LID

[0002] Technical Field

[0003] The invention relates to a PH balancing lid that enables users to measure PH during water consumption, has a mechanism for storing PH measurement paper to measure the obtained values, and also, thanks to a PH powder chamber containing PH balancing powder inside the lid body, allows users to mix this powder with water by pressing a button whenever they want, and to balance the PH.

[0004] Prior Art

[0005] Today, bottled waters are commonly offered to consumers as drinking water, and maintaining pH balance is of critical importance for health. However, uncontrolled or improper operation of processes and conditions can lead to changes in the pH levels of these waters over time, resulting in an unhealthy product.

[0006] Especially during long-term storage or packaging processes, it becomes inevitable for the pH balance of waters to be disrupted. One of the main reasons for this is the leakage or reaction of components of the containers or packaging materials that come into contact with water. For example, unwanted changes in pH levels can occur due to the mixing of chemicals from plastic packaging into water. Additionally, inadequate control of storage conditions such as temperature, light, and air can also affect the pH level of water.

[0007] The imbalance of pH levels leads to water acquiring acidic or alkaline properties. This can have negative effects on consumers' digestive systems and overall health. Particularly, it is known that an acidic environment can exacerbate digestive disorders like acid reflux in some individuals. Similarly, imbalances in overly alkaline waters can also lead to digestive issues. Moreover, the disruption of pH levels can affect the solubility of minerals in water and therefore reduce its nutritional properties.

[0008] In the previous Technical Patent TR2006 / 03832, which is similar in nature to the invention discussed earlier, there is mention of a leak-proof lid. This invention involves a middle section that separates from a tear-off area and folds over a hinge based on the diameter of the water dispenser pin, and it includes a small sealing ring around the tear-off area and a larger sealing ring around the smaller one, providing a leak-proof seal for water dispensers. While this invention introduces innovation in a lid mechanism, its main purpose is to ensure water tightness. However, the similarity of the lids is merely modular in nature.

[0009] Although the previous technical file mentioned above may seem similar to the invention, it is independent and inadequate. Variations in the natural pH levels of water due to air leakage and similar processes have prompted the inventor to pursue a new approach in usage.

[0010] In conclusion, the uncontrolled alteration of pH balance in bottled waters can lead to an unhealthy product and pose potential risks to consumers. Therefore, meticulous management and supervision of processes from water production to storage and presentation to consumers are vital for obtaining a healthy and safe product.

[0011] Considering the example above, the aim is to provide an ideal solution for a range of industrial applications by making water caps healthier, more precise, efficient, and secure for human health. The invention presents an innovation that stands out in optimizing healthy water consumption.

[0026] Detailed Description

[0027] The subject of the invention is the PH balancing lid (1), and its features include:

[0028] A cylindrical geometric shape with an empty interior, forming the main lines of the invention (1) with a body (2), A protective claw (2.1) located at the top of the mentioned body (2), preventing unintentional finger triggering of the spring button (5) by the user,

[0029] A PH paper chamber (3) located inside the mentioned body (2), containing a circular housing void that allows the user to place a single-use PH measurement paper (A) inside,

[0030] A connecting piece (3.1) between the body (2) and the chamber cover (4) serving as a connector,

[0031] A chamber cover (4) with sealing properties for the PH measurement paper (A) inside the PH paper chamber (3) to prevent water and moisture from affecting it, and capable of being opened and closed by the user's finger triggering,

[0032] A spring button (5) located at the exact center of the body (2) of the invention (1), which, when pressed from the top by the user in cases where the PH level on the PH measurement paper (A) is deemed unsatisfactory, allows the PH regulating powder inside the PH powder chamber (5.1) to mix with water,

[0033] A PH powder chamber (5.1) where the PH regulating powder, once mixed with water, is stored and allows continuous refilling by the user.

[0034] These are the components and features included in the invention (1) of the PH balancing lid.

[0035] In the invention (1), when the user wants to measure PH values, they open the chamber cover (4) inside the body (2) to remove the PH measurement paper (A) and measure the liquid's PH value. Later, they can place a new PH measurement paper (A) inside as needed. When the user wants to adjust the PH value of the water, they press the spring button (5) located on the body (2). This action mixes the PH regulating powder inside the PH powder chamber (5.1) located at the bottom of the body (2) with the water, achieving the desired PH level.

[0036] The compartments inside the body (2) are waterproof, ensuring that the PH measurement paper (A) and the regulating powder are not affected by moisture. The spring button (5) on the body (2) is positioned for easy access and user- friendly operation.

[0037] This design provides a practical solution that allows users to measure the PH levels of their drinking water and adjust the PH values as needed.
