DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] Embodiments of the present disclosure may be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although certain embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be achieved in various forms and should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the accompanying drawings and the embodiments of the present disclosure are for exemplary purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0036] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present disclosure and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present disclosure may be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0037] Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, 4, and 6, a straw includes a rigid tube 11, a hose 12 sleeved to a bottom of the rigid tube 11, and an elastic installing base 13 sleeved on an outside of the rigid tube 11. The elastic installing base 13 is detachably sleeved in a drinking water outlet 211 of the cover body 21. A user may install or separate the straw 10 according to needs. When a top cover 22 is buckled with the cover body 21, the top cover 22 presses the rigid tube 11, so that the hose 12 is in a compression and bending state, and the straw 10 is placed in the drinking water outlet 211, thereby minimizing the volume of a bottle cover. When the top cover 22 and the cover body 21 are not buckled with each other, the elastic installing base 13 is elastically reset, thereby pushing the rigid tube 11 out of the drinking water outlet 211 and simultaneously opening the top cover 22, so that the user may drink the water in the bottle body through the rigid tube 11. An installing base 131 is designed to be a cylindrical structure that is compatible with the drinking water outlet 211, which facilitates to disassemble.

[0038] Based on the above structure, referring to FIG. 3, the elastic installing base 13 includes the installing base 131 and a spring 132. The installing base 131 is detachably sleeved in the drinking water outlet 211 of the cover body 21. The spring 132 is sleeved on an outer wall of the rigid tube 11, and two opposite ends of the spring 132 are respectively connected to or respectively contact with a bottom of the installing base 131 and a middle of the rigid tube 11. When the top cover 22 and the cover body 21 are buckled with each other, the top cover 22 presses down the rigid tube 11, so that the spring 132 is compressed. When the top cover 22 and the cover body 21 are not buckled with each other, the spring 132 is stretched, so that the rigid tube 11 is pushed out of the drinking water outlet 211 and at the same time the top cover 22 is opened for drinking.

[0039] The rigid tube 11 further includes a snap-fitting convex ring 111, and an end of the spring 132 is sleeved on the snap-fitting convex ring 111, to avoid the spring 132 separating from the rigid tube 11 during installation.

[0040] Referring to FIG. 3, a part of the rigid tube 11 that coincides with the hose 12 defines a groove 114 for forming a vacuum. After sleeving the hose 12 on the rigid tube 11, the user may press a part of the hose 12 corresponding to the groove 114 to discharge air in the groove 114, so that the groove 114 forms the vacuum. The hose 12 is adsorbed on the rigid tube 11 by the vacuum, which may further improve the tightness of the hose 12 sleeved in the rigid tube 11.

[0041] A fixing convex ring 113 is further disposed on the part of the rigid tube 11 that coincides with the hose 12. When the hose 12 is sleeved in a first end of the rigid tube 11, an outer edge surface of the fixing convex ring 113 is connected to or contacts with an inner wall of the hose 12. When the hose 12 is sleeved in one end of the rigid tube 11, and the outer edge surface of the fixing convex ring 113 is connected to or contact with the inner wall of the hose 12, the tightness of the rigid tube 11 and the hose 12 further increases to avoid the hose 12 separating from the rigid tube 11.

[0042] Based on the above structure, the first end of the rigid tube 11 further has an inclined surface 115, so that the hose 12 is deformed along the inclined surface 115 when the hose 12 is sleeved in the first end of the rigid tube 11, which facilitates the user to install the hose 12 in the rigid tube 11.

[0043] Referring to FIG. 4, the present disclosure further provides a straw bottle containing a combined straw. The straw bottle includes a straw bottle body 20, the cover body 21 matched with the straw bottle body 20, and the above straw 10. The cover body 21 is provided with the drinking water outlet 211. One end of the top cover 22 is articulated with the cover body 21, and the other end of the top cover 22 is buckled with the cover body 21, so as to open or close the drinking water outlet 211. The cover body 21 is separated from the straw 10, as shown in FIG. 5.

[0044] Based on the above structure, as shown in FIG. 6, an inner wall of the drinking water outlet 211 is provided with a snap ring 212. Referring to FIG. 1, a deformation paddle 135 is disposed on a side wall of the installing base 131, a snap-fitting protrusion 136 is disposed on an end of the deformation paddle 135, a thickening part 137 is disposed on an upper part of the installing base 131, and a card slot 138 is formed between the thickening part 137 and the snap-fitting protrusion 136. When the top cover 22 and the cover body 21 are buckled with each other, the snap ring 212 is embedded in the card slot 138. When the user installs or separates the straw 10, the snap-fitting protrusion 136 may conflict with the snap ring 212 with the movement of the installing base 131. At this time, the deformation paddle 135 may bend and deform to the inside of the installing base 131, so that the snap-fitting protrusion 136 moves along an inner edge of the snap ring 212, and bypasses the snap ring 212 until the snap-fitting protrusion 136 is embedded in the card slot 138. In this case, the installing base 131 and the cover body 21 are fixed, and the thickening part 137 is connected to or contact with the snap ring 212, so as to prevent the installing base 131 from sliding down the cover body 21.

[0045] In another embodiment, the inner wall of the drinking water outlet 211 is provided with the snap ring 212. Referring to FIG. 7, an outer wall of the installing base 131 is fixed with the snap-fitting protrusion 136, and the card slot 138 is formed between the snap-fitting protrusion 136 and the thickening part 137. Referring to FIG. 8, the snap ring 212 is provided with an avoidance groove 213 that is adapted to the snap-fitting protrusion 136. When the user needs to install the straw 10, it is necessary to rotate the installing base 131, so that the snap-fitting protrusion 136 on the installing base 131 corresponds to the avoidance groove 213, and then the installing base 131 extends into the cover body 21. Thus, the snap-fitting protrusion 136 moves to the lower part of the snap ring 212 through the avoidance groove 213, and the snap ring 212 is placed in the card slot 138. In this case, the user rotates the installing base 131, so that the snap-fitting protrusion 136 and the avoidance groove 213 are staggered with each other, which may achieve the fixing of the installing base 131 and the cover body 21. The connection between the installing base 131 and the cover body 21 may be stabilized, to prevent the installing base 131 from easily detaching from the cover body 21 due to the deformation of the deformation paddle 135.

[0046] Similarly, when the user does not need the straw 10, only the installing base 131 is rotated, so that the snap-fitting protrusion 136 corresponds to the avoidance groove 213, and then the installing base 131 may be taken out of the cover body 21 by pulling the installing base 131 or the straw 10.

[0047] Referring to FIG. 7, the thickening part 137 further defines a concave part 139 that facilitates the rotation of the installing base 131, which may facilitate the user to rotate the installing base 131.

[0048] Based on the above structure, referring to FIG. 2, the outer wall of the rigid tube 11 further defines a stroke limiting groove 112, and the installing base 131 further defines a through hole 133. A shape of the through hole 133 is consistent with a cross-section shape of the stroke limiting groove 112, which may limit the stroke of the rigid tube 11, thereby avoiding the separation of the rigid tube 11 from the installing base 131.

[0049] Each of two sides of the installing base 131 further defines a vertical opening 134. The vertical opening 134 is communicated with the through hole 133, so that a part of the installing base 131 close to the through hole 133 may be deformed. During production assembly, the through hole 133 may be opened by the vertical opening 134, in order to assemble the rigid tube 11 with the installing base 131.

[0050] In the description of the present disclosure, it should be noted that the orientation or position relationship indicated by the terms upper, inside, outside, etc., is based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. The orientation or position relationship indicated by the terms upper, inside, outside, etc., is only intended to facilitate the description of the present disclosure and simplify the description, and does not indicate or imply that a device or an element referred to must have a specific orientation, and be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms cannot be understood as a limitation of the present disclosure.

[0051] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments are only intended to clearly illustrate the present disclosure, and not to limit the scope of the present disclosure. For those skilled in the art, other changes or variations may be made on the basis of the foregoing disclosure, and these changes or variations remain within the scope of the present disclosure.
