BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a handle mounting member according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the attachment member of the handle of the present invention is fixed to an upper shoulder portion of a spout 8 formed in a kettle body 7 whose upper opening can be detachably disclosed by a lid body 15 and a rear portion thereof. This is for rotatably supporting both ends of the curved handle 10 and is integrally formed by casting of a metal such as aluminum.

As shown in FIG. 2, the handle mounting member 1 is formed integrally with a main body fixing portion 2 directly fixed to the kettle main body 7 and at the center of the main body fixing portion 2. And a handle holder 5. The main body fixing portion 2 has a substantially elliptical shape as a whole, and one surface thereof is curved to form a curved contact surface 3 for abutting against a curved outer surface of the mounting surface of the kettle main body 7. The curved contact surface 3 is formed with a pair of projections 4, 4 fitted into a pair of mounting holes 9, 9 formed in the kettle body 7. On the other hand, this body fixing portion 2
The handle holding portion 5 formed integrally with the main body fixing portion 2
A disk-shaped member protruding from both ends toward the center at a predetermined acute angle, and a support shaft 6 of an appropriate length is protruded from the center of the disk shape. Through hole formed in the part
The handle 10 is fitted from the outside, and the disc-shaped surface is configured to abut a concave notch 13 formed on the outer surface of the end of the handle 10 to hold the end of the handle 10.

The handle 10 is curved in an overall bow shape formed of a hard heat-resistant plastic or the like. As shown in FIG. 2, one end portion 11 of the bow shape is displaced to one side and the cross section is mountain-shaped. Is provided with a protruding stopper portion 14.

The above-mentioned pair of mounting members 1 and 1 have mounting holes 4 and 4 formed on the curved abutting surfaces 3 and 3 of the main body fixing portions 2 and 2 and formed in the kettle main body 7. 9, 9 and 9, 9 respectively, and are tightly fixed by crimping the tips of the projections 4, 4, 4, 4 projecting inside the kettle body 7 inside. The support shafts 6, 6 provided on the handle holding portions 5, 5 of the pair of attachment members 1, 1 are fitted from outside into through holes 12, 12 formed at both end portions 11, 11 of the handle 10, respectively. The respective disc-shaped surfaces of the handle 10 abut against the concave notches 13, 13 of the handle 10 from outside to hold the handle 10. By this holding, the handle 10 can be pivoted about the support shaft 6 of the handle holding portion 5 of the mounting member 1 so that the handle 10 is tilted to one side from the upright state, but is turned to the other side. When the handle 10 is turned down, the stopper portion 14 formed on the tip portion 11 of the handle 10 by being displaced to one side contacts the surface of the main body fixing portion 2 of the mounting member 1 and the handle 10 falls down to the other side. It is something that prevents them from doing so. Therefore, the handle 10 always keeps the standing state,
At the time of pouring water from the upper opening of the kettle body 7 or cleaning the inside, the kettle body 7 is tilted down to the above one side as necessary so as to facilitate the operation.

As described above, the handle mounting member 1 according to the present invention.
Is a molded product in which the main body fixing part 2 for the kettle main body 7 and the handle holding part 5 for the handle 10 are integrated in a unique shape, thereby using rivets and other small parts that are complicated to handle. The handle 10 can be easily attached to the kettle body 7 via the attachment member 1 simply by caulking the body fixing portion 2 to the kettle body 7 without fixing.

[0014]

According to the present invention, the handle mounting portion is formed integrally with a main body fixing portion for fixing to the kettle main body and a handle holding portion for holding the handle, and is formed on the curved contact surface of the main body fixing portion. The pair of protrusions formed are fitted into a pair of mounting holes formed in the kettle body, and the tips of the protrusions protruding inside the kettle body are caulked and fixed from the inside of the kettle body, and are fixed to the kettle body. By using a pair of members, the support shaft of the handle holding portion can be fitted from the outside into through holes formed at both ends of the handle, so that the handle can be easily held.

According to the handle mounting member of the present invention, the handle can be mounted by simply fixing the main body fixing portion to the kettle main body by caulking, and the handle is attached to the support shaft provided on the handle holding portion. The mounting operation is much simpler than the conventional mounting of the handle mounting member because it is securely held by merely inserting it.No special handling is required, especially since handling of rivets and other fine parts is not required at all. It can be installed without the need.

Further, since the main body fixing portion and the handle holding portion are integrated and can be easily mass-produced by molding, it can greatly contribute to cost reduction in kettle manufacturing.
