Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air pot that can be selectively dispensed from either a lower position on the side of the pot body or a higher position.

PRIOR TECHNOLOGY In conventional air pots, liquid is pumped up from a medium bottle through a passageway and is poured out from a spout on the side of the pot body, but the spout height is constant and cannot be adjusted. If the pouring height is high, if you pour a container such as a short teacup on a desk, the drop will become large and the liquid to be poured, such as tea, will scatter, so do not place the container close to the pouring spout. It was cumbersome to have to lift it up to a certain height and then stand still, and there was a risk of getting your hands dirty or getting burned if it moved out of its receiving position.

On the other hand, if the spout height is low, a tall container such as a pot cannot be placed under the spout, resulting in inconveniences such as inability to pour.

In order to overcome this drawback, a structure in which a dispensing auxiliary attachment is attached to and detached from the lower part of the dispensing spout has also been developed (for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 128139/1983).

However, in the structure disclosed in the above-mentioned publication, only a magnet is used to connect the pouring assist attachments 1 to the pot body, or a protruding piece is provided on the upper edge of the attachment and a notch is provided on the bottom surface of the lower part, so that the protruding piece protruding from the main body is connected to the pot body. Insert into the notch,
The upper protrusion piece is inserted into the cover of the spout pipe and is individually defined.

However, with the above-mentioned magnetic type fixation, if another object hits the attachment, it can easily come off or shift, which is very dangerous during pouring, and with the projection type fixation, the upper insertion hole is Since it faces downward, it is difficult for people with poor eyesight to match the protrusion with this, and there is also a risk that it may fall off if it comes into contact with another object.

Purpose of the invention This invention allows anyone to easily assist by attaching the auxiliary attachment in a sliding manner to the upper protrusion of the pot body that covers the water passage, and by fixing the lower part to the main body by magnetism. The purpose is to allow attachments to be attached and detached.

Structure of the Invention The air pot of the present invention has a concave groove or protrusion in the protruding direction on both side walls of the protruding part of the upper part of the pot body that covers the water passage, and a concave groove of the protruding part on both sides of the upper edge of the auxiliary attachment. Or providing a protrusion or groove that engages with the protrusion,
A feature is that a magnet is provided inside the lower part to attract the pot body.

Effects of the invention According to the invention, it is sufficient to simply insert the auxiliary attachment into the protrusion at the top of the pot body from the front and slide it toward the body, and the lower part is attracted and fixed to the body by a magnet.

Therefore, anyone can attach the auxiliary attachment to the pot body very easily, and when removing it, it is only necessary to pull it away from the pot body.

Moreover, since the upper part of the auxiliary attachment is engaged by the protrusion of the recessed groove, there is no risk of it coming off unexpectedly and it is safe.

In the air pot 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 of the embodiment drawings,
Reference numeral 2 denotes a metal pot body, which houses a medium bottle 3 which is better than a vacuum double bottle, and has a dish-shaped top plate 4 fitted on its upper surface.

A through hole 5 is provided in the center of the dish-shaped top plate 4, and a protrusion 4a is formed on the front surface.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a stopper body, which has a ventilation passage 7 and a water passage 8, and the lower end of the water passage 8 extends downward through a pumping pipe 9.

Reference numeral 10 denotes a lid, which is provided to cover the top surface of the pot body 2, and whose negative side is connected to the pot body 2 via a pin 11 so as to be openable and closable, and whose other side is separated from the pot body 2 by a hook 12. possible to connect.

Reference numeral 13 denotes an air pump, which introduces compressed air by pressurizing it with a pressure body 16 provided on the bottom plate 14 of the lid body 10 and provided through the upper plate part 15 of the lid body 10. The liquid 17 in the medium bottle 3 is pushed upward through the passageway 8 by air pressure and is discharged to the outside.

The spout 19 of the water passage 8 passes through the protrusion 4a of the dish-shaped top plate 4 and opens downward at an upper side position of the pot body 2.

Reference numeral 20 denotes an auxiliary attachment, which is hollowed out of synthetic resin and is provided with a protruding strip 22.22 on the upper edge of both side walls 21.21, and the protrusion 22.22 is provided on the outer surface of the protruding portion 4a of the dish-shaped top plate 4 on both side walls over the entire length. Recessed grooves 23, 23 that engage with the strips 22.22
has been established.

In addition, a magnet 24 is attached to the lower inner wall of the auxiliary attachment 20.
is provided so that it can be attracted to the front surface of the pot body 2.

A flow passage 25 is provided inside the auxiliary attachment 20, and the upper end 25a of this flow passage 25 is shaped like a trumpet, and a position corresponding to the spout 19 when the attachment 20 is attached to the front surface of the pot body 2. provided at the lower end 25
b protrudes from the bottom of the attachment.

When attaching the attachment 20 to the pot body 2, connect the protrusions 22 and 22 of the attachment 20 to the protrusion 4a.
It is only necessary to slide it toward the main body side in alignment with the front ends of the grooves 23, 23, and the lower part is attracted by the magnet 24 and is securely fixed.

In this case, the upper end trumpet-shaped portion 25a of the flow path 25 corresponds to the spout 19, and the liquid that has passed through the pumping pipe 9 and the passageway 8 is poured out from the bottom position at the lower end of the flow path 25.

When removing the auxiliary attachment 20, it is sufficient to simply pinch the side walls 21, 21 with your fingers and pull them away from the main body.

In the embodiment described above, protrusions were provided on both side walls of the protruding portion 4a, and grooves were provided on the upper edge of the attachment 20, but the protrusions and the grooves may be provided in reverse.
