A beverage brewing pot includes a first pot liner, a second pot liner, a water-air pump and a controller. A brewing chamber is arranged between the first pot liner and the second pot liner. The first pot liner, the second pot liner and the brewing chamber are in communication. At least the first pot liner is sealed during operation. A first water-level sensor is provided at the top of the first pot liner, and a second water-level sensor is provided at the top of the second pot liner. The controller controls the water-air pump to feed air to the first pot liner to direct the water to flow into the second pot liner. The controller controls the water-air pump to operate reversely, such that the water in the second pot liner is pumped back to the first pot liner.

A beverage carafe comprises a beverage reservoir and a channel for directing a flow of liquid from the reservoir when the carafe is tilted for dispensing the liquid. The channel has a floor and an elongated protrusion projecting upward from the floor. The protrusion is transverse to the flow of the liquid through the channel and has a curved distal face and curved sides.

A device for preparing a filtered coffee beverage is composed of a filter pot and a coffee container. In the starting position, the suitably dimensioned filter pot is situated inside the coffee container and supported on the bottom wall of the latter. In this position, boiling water is poured into the filter pot, and then ground roasted coffee is added, which is mixed with the water by stirring or by means of shaking the device. Thereafter, the filter pot is moved to an upper filtering position, in which the coffee beverage passes through a filter screen at the bottom of the filter pot into the coffee container.

A manufacturing method of an antimicrobial and adhesion-proof titanium tableware having a contact portion for contacting foods, food ingredients, drinking water, beverages, or body parts of a user. The manufacturing method includes a preparation step implemented by using a titanium substrate to produce a tableware preform; a preparation step implemented by using a titanium substrate to produce a tableware preform; a surface treatment step implemented by washing a surface of the tableware preform and removing a primary oxidation layer on the surface of the tableware preform; and an oxidation step which includes: placing the tableware preform in a vacuum calcination furnace, heating the tableware preform to reach a temperature ranging from 700? C. to 850? C., and introducing oxygen for allowing one part of the surface of the tableware preform corresponding to the contact portion to be exposed to the oxygen for 3 hours to 12 hours.

A locking mechanism assembly can include a locking member that can move between a retracted position and a deployed position. A first spring is coupled to a proximal portion of the locking member and exerts a force on the locking member in the proximal direction toward the retracted position. A second spring is coupled to the locking member and exerts a force on the locking member in a distal direction toward the deployed position, opposite to the direction of force exerted by the first spring. One of the first and second springs includes a shape memory material that moves to a pre-deformed state when exposed to heat, thereby increasing in tension such that the force it exerts on the locking member exceeds the force exerted on the locking member by the other of the first and second springs, causing the locking member to move to the retracted or deployed position.

A filter cup is revealed. The filter cup includes an outer cup, an inner cup mounted in the outer cup and a grip. The inner cup consists of a filter bottom surface on the bottom thereof, a plug-like member on the filter bottom surface, and at least two flanges on top of the inner cup. A discharge hole is disposed on bottom of the outer cup and sealed by the plug-like member. Two rotating members are pivotally connected to the outer cup and each includes a leaning portion projecting therefrom. The grip is connected to the rotating members. The rotating members are driven to move for pushing the flanges and moving the inner cup vertically by the leaning portions thereof when the grip is pulled. Thus a gap is formed between the plug-like member and the discharge hole, allowing liquid in the inner to flow out therethrough.

A container, such as a beverage container or a mug, may include electronics to run applications. In some examples, the container may include a display for visually displaying icons, menus, data, and other elements. In some examples, the container may include one or more sensors, such as touch sensitivity built into the display or a separate touch-sensitive panel, and/or a motion sensor. In some examples, the container may use the one or more sensors to receive input from a user to run interactive applications on the display. In some examples, the container may recognize particular forms of input, such as user swipes in specified directions and/or for specified durations on the touch-sensitive display, and/or motion of the container in specified directions to execute specified commands for the applications. The recognized input may form a user interface for the user.
