Detailed Description

The terms "first," "second," and the like, as may be used in the following description, are not intended to limit any order, but merely distinguish between various separate components, features, structures, elements, and the like, which may be the same, similar, or different. Meanwhile, descriptions about orientations, such as "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer", "left", "right", "radial", "axial", and the like, which may be used in the following description, are only for convenience of description unless explicitly stated, and are not intended to form any limitation on the technical solution of the present invention.

Fig. 1 shows a perspective view of an exemplary drinking cup according to the present invention, and fig. 2 is a top view of the drinking cup. As can be seen, the beverage cup generally comprises a cup body 10 and a lid 20, wherein the cup body 10 is generally cylindrical in shape and the lid 20 is in the form of a circular disc. Generally, the rim of the open end of the cup body 10 is provided with a flange, and the lid 20 extends axially along the entire circumference with a flange 35, the flange 35 being engaged with the flange on the cup body, so that the lid and the cup body are sealingly engaged with each other.

In addition, the cup cover 20 includes a disk-shaped body 30 integrally and detachably attached with a leakage-proof cover 40, and the leakage-proof cover 40 is provided with a leakage-proof hole (a second through hole 41) which is matched with other structures of the cup cover to effectively prevent leakage when containing beverages such as carbonated beverages or hot water, as will be described in further detail below.

In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, with reference to the cup body, the axial direction or the length direction along the cup body is the axial direction, and the diameter direction along the cup body is the radial direction.

Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the cap. As shown, the body 30 of the lid includes a lower surface facing the cup body and an upper surface facing away from the cup body. On the surface facing away from the cup body 20, the body 30 is provided with an axially extending recess 31 comprising a bottom wall 32 and a side wall 33, the bottom wall 32 being provided with a first through hole 34. On the other hand, the leakage preventing cap 40 is a flat sheet as a whole, and includes a top wall 42 and a rib 43 protruding from a lower surface of the top wall, wherein the top wall 42 is provided with a second through hole 41.

Upon installation of the leakage prevention cap 40 to the body 30, the ribs 43 of the leakage prevention cap and the sidewall 33 of the body are over-tightly fitted to each other in a sealing manner, and the leakage prevention cap 40 and the groove 31 portion of the body define a receiving chamber. In other words, the ribs 43 of the leakage prevention cover have substantially the same configuration as the side walls 33, and the radial dimension of the ribs 43 of the leakage prevention cover is slightly larger than the side walls 33. The leakage-proof cover 40 and its ribs 43 (and thus the side walls 33 of the groove) are preferably fan-shaped concentric with the body 30, since such a shape is easy to machine and install and also aesthetically pleasing. Of course, the leakage-proof cover and the groove of the body can be provided in other suitable shapes, such as square, etc.

As can be seen from FIG. 3, the bottom wall 32 of the body is provided with a first through hole 34, and the top wall 42 of the leakage-proof cover is provided with a second through hole 41, so that the inner cavity of the cup body is communicated with the groove 31 through the first through hole 34 and then communicated with the outside through the second through hole 41. The first through hole 34 and the second through hole 41 are fine through holes. When the cup body is internally provided with steam water, for example, gas generated by the steam water can be discharged through the first through hole and the second through hole, so that the explosion caused by the increase of the pressure in the cup is prevented. Meanwhile, when the cup body is inclined for a short time, the labyrinth structure formed by the first through hole 34, the groove 31 and the second through hole 41 can effectively prevent steam and water from leaking.

Preferably, the first through hole 34 and the second through hole 41 are staggered with respect to the radial direction of the cup cover 20, and the diameter of the second through hole 41 is smaller than that of the first through hole 34. In addition, a plurality of more complicated flow passages, such as a plurality of layers of flow passages, can be added in the space formed by the convex ribs of the leakage-proof cover so as to further increase the resistance of the beverage during the leakage process and obtain better leakage-proof effect. In other words, the leakage preventing cover 40 or the body 30 may be provided with a labyrinth structure of other structure capable of allowing gas to flow out while preventing the leakage of the beverage.

Fig. 4 is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of another exemplary lid, and fig. 5 is a perspective view of the lid of fig. 4. The lid adds a thimble 44 to the leak-proof cover 40 and a cover sheet 36 to the body 30 as compared to fig. 3. Before the leakage preventing cover 40 is attached to the body 30, the first through hole 34 is shielded by the cover piece 36. The connection between the cover sheet 36 and the body 30 is weakened and can be broken by an external force of a predetermined magnitude. In addition, a thimble 44 extends from a lower surface of the top wall 42 of the leakage-proof cover 40 at a position aligned with the first through hole 34 of the body 30. During the process of attaching the anti-leakage cover 40 to the body 30, the thimble 44 applies a force to the cover sheet 36 to make it fall off the anti-leakage cover 40.

The foregoing description is only exemplary of the principles and spirit of the invention. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that changes may be made in the described examples without departing from the principles and spirit thereof, and that such changes are contemplated by the inventors and are within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
