New description: [New technical field] [0001] This new type relates to reusable straws, especially a reusable multi-section straw. [Prior Art] [0002] Many restaurants or beverage shops provide environmentally friendly paper cups to consumers in response to environmental protection, but the supplied straws are still plastic straws. The cost of such straws is low, but it is not only likely to cause environmental pollution, but is generally not resistant to high temperatures. Therefore, when used in conjunction with hot drinks, chemical substances harmful to the human body may be released, posing a potential risk to human health. [0003] As environmental awareness becomes more and more important, many people bring their own reusable tableware, such as chopsticks, spoons, knives, forks, etc., but few people will bring their own straws. [0004] The proliferation of plastic straws has long been one of the most negligent and difficult to overcome in promoting environmental protection work. Although there are glass straws on the market that can be reused by consumers, the fragile nature of glass products is a potential hazard to the use of glass straws, especially for young children. Therefore, glass pipettes are clearly not an ideal replacement for conventional straws. [New Content] [0005] In view of this, how to reduce or solve the damage caused by the existing straws to the environment is a problem to be solved in the industry.

[0019] Since the straw 100 can be split into two sections, it does not need to occupy too much space, so the user can put the straw 100 together with other personal tableware, such as chopsticks, spoons, knives, forks, etc. Carry it in the box or bag, increasing the chance of reusing the straw. Form No. A0101. Page 8 of 16 [0020] In addition, when the user presses the straw 100 to the bottom of the beverage container, since the hollow sleeve body 122 of the tube section 120 only partially protrudes and is engaged with In the hollow sleeve body 112 of the tube segment 110, it does not completely shrink into the hollow sleeve body 112 of the tube segment 110. Therefore, the length of the traditional two-stage plastic straws that are generally available in commercially available aluminum-slung beverages may be suddenly shortened by extrusion, causing the straws to be unable to pick up the liquid at the bottom of the container, and will not occur on the straw 100. In practice, both the tube segment 110 and the tube segment 120 can be designed to have substantially the same shape and size. As a result, the cross-sectional area, the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the open end 114 of the tube 11 和 and the open end 124 of the official knuckle 120 are the same, and the open end 116 of the tube section 110 and the open end of the battalion section $2^ 126 two: the cross-sectional area, inner diameter, and outer diameter of all are the same V. This design is used, regardless of whether the user inserts the open end 1 24 of the tube section 120 into the open end 116 of the tube section 110' or Inserting the open end 114 of the pipe joint no into the open end 126 of the pipe joint 120 can be used smoothly. "This design method is also more conducive to mass production, and can further reduce the manufacturing cost of the pipette 1". 4: '* [0022] FIG. 2 is a schematic view of another embodiment of the four tubes of the present invention: 2〇〇. The straw 200 is similar to the straw 1 described above, except that the open end 214 of the tube segment 210 and the open end 224 of the tube segment 220 have a beveled surface in the straw 2, which facilitates the straw 200. Puncture the insert on a portion of the beverage container "to design the open end 224 of the tube section 220 to be chamfered" also helps the user to align the open end 224 of the tube section 220 with the tube section when reassembling the straw 2 Open End 116 of 210 » [0023] Similar to the previous embodiments, both the tube section 110 and the tube section 22 can be designed to have substantially the same shape and size. In this way, regardless of the form number A0101, page 9 / page 16 [0024] M394070 user inserts the open end 224 of the tube section 220 into the open end ι6 of the tube section 21〇, or the open end of the tube section 210 The open end 126' of the 214 insertion tube section 22〇 can be used smoothly. In practice, the tube section 11〇 in FIG. 1 can be combined with the tube section 22〇 in FIG. 2 to form a straw, or the tube section 12〇 of the figure can be combined with the tube section 21〇 in FIG. 2 to form a straw. straw. [0025] The foregoing embodiment utilizes a two-section tube joint configuration to illustrate the embodiment of the present invention, but this is for convenience of description only, and is not intended to limit the present embodiment. For example, an additional tube section (not shown) similar in shape may be added after the tube section 12 of FIG. i, the additional tube section also has a hollow sleeve body and two open ends, one of which The outer diameter or cross-sectional area of the open end is smaller than the inner diameter or cross-sectional area of the open end 26 of the pipe joint i 2', and the outer surface shape of the open end corresponds to the inner surface shape of the open end 126. When the open end of the additional tube section projects into the open end 126 of the tube section 2 ,, the hollow sleeve body of the additional tube section can partially extend into the hollow sleeve body 122 of the tube section 'ν' 120, and The hollow sleeve body 122 is removably joined to each other so that a three-section straw can be formed. The same concept can also be applied to the embodiment of Fig. 2, and for the sake of brevity, the description will not be repeated here. [0026] Today's social beverage stores are everywhere, and the total amount of plastic straws consumed daily is very alarming. The use of the reusable straw structure disclosed above can increase the proportion of repeated use of the straw by increasing the convenience and safety of the user carrying the personal straw, thereby reducing environmental pollution and reducing waste of natural resources.
