Description

A beverage container that can be used for both cold and hot drinks

The invention relates to a beverage container which can be simultaneously applied to brewing cold drinks and hot drinks, in particular to a detachable filter element and an inner cover body, so that the user can alternately use the filter element and the inner cover body according to requirements. Beverage container.

According to the press, most of the chemical beverages are often added with many chemical additives, and most of them are used in disposable beverage containers (such as: special bottles, aluminum foil bags, Tetra Pak bags or canned drinks, convenience drinks). Paper cups, plastic cups or styrofoam cups used in stores, etc.) Therefore, if consumers drink commercial drinks for a long time, they will not only burden the health but also cause environmental pollution. With the rise of the Chinese people's health concept and the rise of environmental awareness, many consumers now buy beverage containers that can be used continuously, and brew a variety of cold drinks or hot drinks on their own so that they can take care of all kinds of excellent drinks. Personal health and social responsibility for environmental protection.

In order to be able to drink favorite beverages at any time during the journey, or during work or class, many consumers will carry the beverage containers with them. Therefore, in order to facilitate consumers to directly brew beverages in the beverage containers they carry, some manufacturers have introduced beverage containers with filter cartridges, so that consumers can brew all kinds of cold drinks or hot drinks anytime and anywhere according to personal preference. . Although brewing beverages with such a filter-filled beverage container does improve the convenience and practicability of the beverage container, careful analysis of the experience of the consumer's feedback can reveal a beverage container that is conventionally provided with a filter cartridge. There are still many deficiencies to be improved.

Investigate, all kinds of brewed beverages, whether it is coffee, tea or various kinds of herbal tea, will gradually release different ingredients over time during the brewing process. Therefore, in order to enjoy the best drinking flavor, appropriate Mastering the brewing temperature and time has always been a very important issue. Taking coffee as an example, in the process of filling coffee, the first thing that is extracted a lot is the aroma and fruit. The acid-flavored ingredients, while the bitter or astringent ingredients in the coffee powder are extracted at a slower rate. As the brewing time is gradually lengthened, the taste of the coffee will change from partial acid to bitterness. If the time spent soaking in the liquid is too long, the brewed coffee will be very bitter. Similarly, in order to brew a variety of tea or herbal teas with the best flavor, it is necessary to properly grasp the length of time for brewing. However, when a general consumer uses a beverage container with a filter element conventionally, most of the products are continuously immersed in the liquid with the filter element (eg, tea leaves, coffee powder, etc.), so if the consumer passes It takes a long time to drink the brewed beverage, and it is often impossible to taste the best flavor of the beverage.

Although the beverage container with the filter element traditionally can be used for brewing cold drinks or hot drinks, in order to be able to place the filter element, the container body for the beverage is mostly made into the form of a jar, and therefore, in the consumer When drinking a beverage contained therein, the rate at which the beverage flows out is fast. When a consumer brews a hot drink with a beverage container that is traditionally attached with a filter element, it is easy to be burnt by a large amount of high-temperature liquid during the drinking of the hot drink. Obviously, such dangerous design is necessary to be improved.

As can be seen from the above description, when a consumer uses a beverage container with a filter element conventionally, the beverage to be brewed is often soaked for too long, so that the best flavor of the beverage cannot be enjoyed, and in addition, since the beverage with the filter element is conventionally attached The container is designed in the form of a jar. When the consumer brews hot drinks and drinks, it is easily burnt by high-temperature beverages, which is not ideal. Therefore, how to design a cover body can not only avoid the consumer immersing the object to be brewed in the liquid for a long time, and the consumer can enjoy the brewed beverage enjoyment regardless of whether the consumer uses the beverage container to brew hot or cold drinks. That is, it is an important problem that the present invention is intended to solve here.
