Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Field of industrial application) The present invention relates to a pot for boiling water or keeping warm water installed in a car, and particularly relates to an air pot for dispensing water by operating a push button.

(Prior art and its problems) Recently, an in-vehicle pot that can be installed and used inside a car has been developed, and in order to put it into practical use,
For example, it has been proposed to store the pot body in an outer case that is fixed to the vehicle body so that it can be moved in and out, making it easier to use when cleaning the pot body, replenishing water, etc. In this case, there is a danger that the pot body may pop out from the outer case due to vibration or impact.

Furthermore, when the air pot is installed in a narrow space inside a car, it is easy for an arm or elbow to hit the push button, and there is a risk that the liquid inside may be inadvertently spilled out.

(Purpose of the invention) The present invention was made in view of the above points, and uses the carrying handle of the pot body to prevent the pot body from flying out and the liquid from being poured out accidentally.

(Example) An example of the present invention shown in the drawings will be described in detail below.

Reference numeral 1 denotes an air pot main body having water boiling and heat retention functions, with an air pump housed inside an upper lid 2 and a push button 3 thereof facing upward. Reference numeral 4 denotes a carrying handle which has a shape and has long holes at both ends, and is pivoted so as to be movable up and down within the range of the long holes by a screw 5 which is inserted into the long hole and screwed onto the pot body 1. By moving downward, the grip part 4a
approach pushbutton 3. Thus, the grip portion 4a of the handle 4 acts as a guard for the push button 3, and prevents the arm or elbow from hitting the push button 3 and pressing it, but it also prevents the push button 3 from being pressed with the tip of a finger. isn't it. Reference numeral 6 denotes a retaining plate having spring properties fixed by screws 5, which comes into elastic contact with the handle 4 and applies an appropriate braking force to the vertical movement of the handle 4.
Hold the handle 4 in any position. Reference numeral 7 denotes a cover that covers the end of the handle 4, the screw 5, the holding plate 6, etc., and an engaging body 8 is rotatably supported by a shaft 9 in the lower part of the cover, and the engaging projection 10 of the engaging body 8 is removed. It has an opening 11 for entering and exiting. Reference numeral 12 denotes an operating protrusion protruding from the engaging body 8, which is positioned opposite to the end of the handle 4 when the engaging protrusion 10 is in the retracted state;
When the handle 4 is moved downward, the engaging body 8 is rotated so that the engaging protrusion 10 projects outward by coming into contact with the end of the handle 4. Reference numeral 13 denotes a spring for holding the engaging body 8 with the engaging protrusion 10 in the retracted state or in the protruded state.

Reference numeral 14 denotes an outer case in which the air pot main body 1 is housed in a manner that allows the air pot body 1 to be moved in and out.A metal bottom plate 15 of the outer case is fixed to an arbitrary position on the vehicle body, and an engagement angle 16 is provided upright on the bottom plate 15.

In the above configuration, water is first poured into the air pot main body 1, and then the main body 1 is housed in the outer case 14. In this state, the handle 4 is in the upper position as shown in FIG. 4, and the engaging body 8 is in the retracted state of the engaging protrusion 10 under the biasing force of the spring 13. Next, when the handle 4 is pushed down, the end of the handle 4 comes into contact with the operating protrusion 12 and rotates the engaging body 8 against the spring 13. When the engaging body 8 is rotated by a predetermined angle, the spring 13 is activated. The engaging protrusion 10 is rotated by receiving the biasing force in the protruding direction of the engaging protrusion 10, and the engaging protrusion 10 protrudes outward as shown in FIG. In this state, the engagement protrusion 10 engages with the tip of the engagement angle 16 as shown in FIG. 6, and this engagement prevents the air pot body 1 from accidentally popping out from the outer case 14. To prevent. Further, the grip portion 4a of the handle 4 is close to the push button 3 and acts as a guard, thereby preventing accidental dispensing due to contact with the arm or elbow.

When taking out the air pot body 1, first pull up the handle 4. In this state, the engagement body 8 is still in the protruding state of the engagement protrusion 10;
By moving the handle 4 upward, the engaging protrusion 10 can be brought into the retracted state. Therefore, when the air pot main body 1 is lifted up by holding the pulled-up handle 4, the engaging body 8 is rotated by the engaging angle 16 against the spring 13, and finally the engaging protrusion 1
0 sinks and is disengaged from the engagement angle 16, allowing the air pot body 1 to be taken out.

(Effects of the invention) As described above, according to the structure of the present invention, the carrying handle can be used to prevent the air pot body from flying out and the liquid from being poured out accidentally, which is a very useful invention in practice. .
