Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an air pot with a water level display device that is provided with a water level tube that displays the water level on the outside of the inside of the medium bottle.

Prior art and its problems Conventionally, in an air pot, as shown in FIG.
It is known that a panel 13 is attached to the outer surface of the exterior body 11, and has a see-through window 14 on the front side (on the left side in FIG. 1) that covers the outer surface of the water pipe 12 and allows the water level pipe 12 to be viewed from the outside. .

However, when injecting water, the water injection pipe 15 is often placed horizontally towards the operator to avoid splashing the liquid onto himself/herself. Therefore, it was difficult to check changes in water level during water injection operations. Therefore, if the user continued to operate the air pump without realizing that the amount of liquid remaining in the medium bottle was low, there was a problem in that liquid such as hot water would splash out of the spout, causing burns.

Purpose of the invention The present invention was made in view of the problems of the conventional technology.The purpose of this invention is to provide a water level display device that allows changes in water level to be confirmed from a wide range even during water injection operations, and prevents burns caused by splashing of hot water, etc. The aim is to provide an air pot with an attached air pot.

Composition of the Device In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an outwardly protruding structure at the corner of the side of the panel whose peripheral portion is attached to the outer surface of the exterior body in order to cover the outer surfaces of the water level pipe and the water injection pipe. The water level pipe is provided with a curved bulge, the transparent window is provided in a curved shape in the bulge of the panel, and a part of the water level pipe is fitted into the bulge. It is possible to visually see from a wide range from the front direction of the water injection pipe arrangement to the side direction of the water injection pipe arrangement.

Embodiments Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figures 2 and 3 show an embodiment of the present invention, in which 1 is a metal exterior housing a medium bottle (not shown) inside, 2 is an air pump (not shown) provided on the upper part of the exterior. By operating the above-mentioned air pump, air can be sent into the medium bottle in the same way as in the past, and the liquid inside the medium bottle can be poured out through the water injection pipe.

A water level pipe 3 that communicates with the inner bottle at its lower part is vertically arranged on the outside of the front surface of the exterior body 1, and a resin panel 4 that covers the outer surface of the water level pipe 3 is provided on the exterior surface of the exterior body 1. attached.

Note that 6 is an extension pipe connected to the lower end of the water injection pipe and extending the spout downward, and this extension pipe 6 is also covered by the panel 4. Further, numeral 7 is a back plate placed behind the water level pipe 3 and provided with a striped pattern etc. so that the water level can be clearly identified.

Curved bulges 9 projecting outward are formed on both sides of the panel 4, and a curved see-through window 5 is provided at the corner of one of the bulges. 8
is a liquid level scale engraved on the panel 4.

Therefore, the water level can be confirmed from both the front direction (front side) and the side surface side of the water injection pipe arrangement, that is, from a wider range than in conventional systems, and the incident range of light that reaches the water level pipe 3 through the see-through window 5 is improved. is over a wide range as shown by the angle θ, so the water level pipe 3 can be seen more clearly. In addition, since the transparent window 5 is provided in a curved bulge at the side corner of the panel 4, the amount of protrusion is small, and there is little risk of damage due to collision with other articles.

Purpose of the invention As is clear from the above explanation, according to the invention, a curved bulge protruding outward is provided at the corner of the side of the panel that covers the outer surfaces of the water injection pipe and the water level pipe.
By providing the transparent window in a curved shape in the bulging part of the panel and arranging a part of the water level pipe to fit into the bulging part, the water level pipe can be seen not only in front of the water injection pipe, but also in the front where the water filling pipe is installed. It is also visible from the side, that is, from a wider range than conventional systems, and changes in water level can be confirmed from a wide range even during water pouring operations, making it possible to prevent burns from splashing hot water.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A lid body with a built-in air pump is installed on the top of the exterior body that houses the medium bottle, and by operating the air pump, air is sent into the medium bottle, and the liquid inside the medium bottle is poured out through the water injection pipe. At the same time, a water level pipe for displaying the amount of liquid in the medium bottle is arranged vertically on the outside of the exterior body, and the outer surface of this water level pipe and the water filling pipe section is covered,
and an air pot with a water level display device in which a peripheral portion of a panel having a see-through window through which the water level pipe can be viewed from the outside is attached to the outer surface of the exterior body, and a curved portion protruding outward at a corner of the side portion of the panel. By providing a shaped bulge, providing the transparent window in a curved shape in the bulging part of the panel, and arranging a part of the water level pipe to fit into the bulging part, the water level pipe can be made into the above-mentioned shape. An air pot with a water level display device, which is characterized by being visually visible from a wide range from the front of the water pipe arrangement to the side direction of the water injection pipe arrangement.
