Description

straw

The present invention relates to a straw, in particular to an environmentally friendly straw that can be reused.

Most of the existing traditional straws are integrally formed of plastic material. The traditional straws have a closed wall extending along a long axis direction and a closed wall defined by the surrounding wall and extending along the long axis direction. Suction hole. The traditional straw can be used to suck and pass the liquid through the suction hole, making the drinking of the liquid more convenient. However, this traditional straw is a disposable product, which is discarded as garbage after a one-time use. Unfriendly.

In order to improve the above-mentioned shortcomings, a reusable environmentally-friendly straw has appeared on the market. Such environmentally-friendly straws mostly use metal or glass instead of the original plastic material, and can be cleaned and reused after use. The suction hole is very long, and it is difficult to clean. A long-handled brush that can cooperate with the environmentally-friendly straw can be used to clean the environmentally-friendly straw. Therefore, when using the environmentally-friendly straw, the long-handled brush must also be carried with it. It is very inconvenient to clean, use or carry. The environmentally friendly straw made of metal is opaque. After brushing, it is impossible to directly judge whether it is indeed cleaned, and it is easy to have hygienic doubts in use.

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a straw that is reusable, easy to clean, and convenient to carry.

Therefore, the straw of the present invention includes a straw body and a connection unit.

The straw body is a flexible film-like plastic material, and includes a first side edge and a second side edge opposite to the first side edge.

The connecting unit includes a card member disposed adjacent to the first side edge, and a fitting member disposed adjacent to the second side edge. The card member and the fitting member can cooperate with each other and be in an engagement position. A non-embedded position is switched between the first side edge and the second side edge in the embedded position, and the straw body surrounds a straw-shaped suction hole. , The straw body spread out into a sheet shape.

The effect of the new model is that the straw body can be spread out into a sheet shape when it is in the non-embedded position, so it can be cleaned directly without the use of a matched long-handled brush, and it can also be directly checked to ensure that it is cleaned. Easy, more convenient to carry and use.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, an embodiment of the novel straw includes a straw body 1 and a connection unit 2.

The straw body 1 is a flexible film-like plastic material with a uniform thickness and is between 1.5 mm and 3.5 mm. The straw body 1 includes a first surface 11, a second surface 12 opposite to the first surface 11, a first side edge 13 located between the first surface 11 and the second surface 12, and a A second side edge 14 between the first surface 11 and the second surface 12 and opposite to the first side edge 13.

Referring to FIGS. 2 to 4, the connection unit 2 includes a clamping member 21 disposed on the first surface 11 adjacent to the first side edge 13 and extending along a major axis direction L1, and a clamping member 21 disposed adjacent to the first surface 11. The second side edge 14 is a fitting piece 22 extending along the major axis direction L1. The clamping member 21 has a rod portion 211 connected to the first side edge 13 and a cross-section connected to the rod portion 211 and along a transverse axis direction L2 perpendicular to the long axis direction L1 is larger than the rod portion 211. Head 212. The fitting piece 22 is C-shaped in cross section perpendicular to the long axis direction L1, and has an embedded groove 221 that is small outside and large inside. The insertion groove 221 has a groove bottom 222 adjacent to the straw, and a width smaller than The slot 222 has an opening 223. The cross-sectional width of the clamping member 21 and the fitting member 22 is larger than the thickness of the straw body 1, and they can cooperate with each other and switch between an embedded position and a non-embedded position.

In the engaging position, the engaging groove 221 of the engaging member 22 is engaged with the head 212 of the card member 21, the rod portion 221 is penetrated through the opening 223, and the first side edge 13 and the first The two side edges 14 are connected to each other, and the straw body surrounds to form an elongated suction hole 15 (see FIG. 1). In the engaging position, the straw can suck and pass liquid through the suction hole 15 and can be used for drinking water or other beverages, and the first side edge 13 and the second side edge 14 can be closely adhered to each other, which can effectively To prevent liquid from leaking out of the suction hole 15.

In the non-embedded position, the first side edge 13 is not connected to the second side edge 14 and the straw body 1 is spread out in a sheet shape, so it is possible to directly clean the first side without using a long-handled brush. The surface 11 and the second surface 12 can also be inspected directly to see if they are indeed cleaned. It is more convenient and hygienic in cleaning and use, and it is not necessary to carry the long-handled brush. It is also more convenient to carry and can effectively improve. Reuse of this straw.

The thickness of the straw body 1 is uniform and between 1.5 mm and 3.5 mm, and the length of the straw body 1 along the horizontal axis direction L2 can be lengthened or shortened as needed to adjust the diameter of the suction hole 15 for With general beverages or beverages containing solid foods, solid foods include powder round, coriander and fruit ... and so on.

Since those with ordinary knowledge in the art can infer the extended details based on the above description, they will not be described further.

Through the above description, the advantages of the foregoing embodiment can be summarized as follows: in the fitting position, the first side edge 13 and the second side edge 14 are closely adhered to each other, which can prevent liquid from leaking out of the suction hole 15 during use, In the non-embedded position, the straw body 1 is spread out in a sheet shape, and does not require the use of a long-handled brush, which can be directly cleaned or directly inspected to ensure that it is indeed cleaned. The straw is more convenient in use, cleaning and carrying.

However, the above are only examples of the new model. When the scope of implementation of the new model cannot be limited by this, any simple equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the scope of the patent application of the new model and the content of the patent specification are still Within the scope of this new patent.
