Abstract

An electric kettle, comprising a kettle body (1) and a spout (2). The spout (2) is connected onto the kettle body (1). A joint between the spout (2) and the kettle body (1) is located at the bottom of the kettle body. The spout (2) is in communication with a cavity for containing liquid in the kettle body (1) to form a U-shaped communicating vessel. The spout (2) comprises a spout front part (3) with a free end, a flexible connection tube (4), and a riveting tube (5) that is riveted at the bottom of the cavity for containing liquid in the kettle body (1). One end of the flexible connection tube (4) is sleeved with a non-free end of the front part of the spout (2), and the other end of the flexible connection tube (4) is sleeved with the riveting tube (5). The joint between the spout (2) and the kettle body (1) is located at the bottom of the kettle body (1), and therefore, the spout (2) and the cavity for containing liquid in the kettle body (1) form a communicating vessel. Regardless of the water volume in the kettle body and the inclination angle for pouring water, the amount of water flowing from the spout remains constant within the same time period, such that a user can control a flow rate desirably and is effectively prevented from being scalded.

Description

electric kettle

Technical field

The present invention relates to a container for holding and heating a contained object, and more particularly to an electric kettle.

Background technique

An electric kettle is one of the commonly used small appliances, which includes a kettle body and a spout attached to the kettle body. The existing electric kettle has a spout located at an upper position of the kettle body. When the water is poured, the kettle body is inclined toward the spout side, and the liquid in the internal cavity of the kettle body naturally flows out from the spout. The existing electric kettle has long been a common problem that has not been solved: when the water is poured out from the spout, the user cannot control the tilt angle of the pot body well, especially the pot body can be stably tilted to one side. Speed, at the same time, many pots are non-transparent, and the user can't grasp the real-time position of the liquid surface in the pot body, so it is impossible to control the speed of the liquid flowing out of the spout, so that the liquid flowing out of the spout is fast and slow, and for a long time. less. Thus, in actual use, the liquid is liable to be accidentally spilled or splashed, especially when the temperature of the water in the kettle body is too high, which can easily burn the user.

Summary of the invention

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an electric kettle for the current state of the art, which can control the flow rate well when the user pours water from the spout, thereby effectively preventing the user from being burnt.

The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above technical problem is: an electric kettle comprising a kettle body and a spout, the spout being connected to the kettle body, wherein the connection between the spout and the kettle body is located At the bottom of the kettle body, the spout communicates with a cavity for holding liquid in the kettle body and constitutes a U-shaped connector.

In an improvement, the spout comprises a front spout having a free end, a flexible connecting tube and a riveting tube, the riveting tube being riveted to the bottom of the kettle body, the first end of the flexible connecting tube and the front of the spout The non-free ends are connected, and the second end of the flexible connecting tube is connected to the riveting tube. This structure makes the original spout installed on the side of the kettle body as the front part of the spout in the present invention, eliminating the step of reprocessing in production; for the connection of the spout and the kettle body in different sizes of the kettle body The problem that the distance from the side of the kettle body is different, the flexible connecting pipe can be solved with different lengths.

As an improvement, the electric kettle further includes a fixing bracket fixedly coupled to the front portion of the spout, the bracket being screwed to the outside of the bottom of the kettle body. This structure further secures the front of the spout so that the front of the spout is more secure.

As an improvement, the electric kettle further includes a mesh cover, the mesh cover is located in the cavity of the kettle body, and the mesh cover covers the connection between the spout and the kettle body and is connected to the kettle body. The structure can prevent the impurities in the cavity in the pot body and the residue of the soaking, such as tea leaves, from irritating the spout, and avoid blocking the spout.

As a further improvement, the junction of the spout and the kettle body is located on the side of the bottom of the kettle body adjacent the spout. In this way, when pouring water, there is less water left in the cavity inside the kettle.

Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages: since the connection between the spout and the kettle body is located at the bottom of the kettle body, the cavity between the spout and the kettle body forms a communication device, and in the same time, the kettle body What is the capacity of the water, the angle of inclination of the pouring water, and the water output of the spout is the same, which allows the user to control the flow rate very well, effectively avoiding the user being burnt, and at the same time, pouring water from the electric kettle The movement becomes extremely easy, which greatly enhances the comfort of the product and is very practical.

The structure of the present invention can be applied to any electric kettle such as glass, plastic, ceramic, or stainless steel.

detailed description

The invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments of the drawings.

As shown in Figs. 1 to 4, a preferred embodiment of the electric kettle of the present invention comprises an kettle body 1 and a spout 2 attached to the kettle body 1.

Wherein, the kettle body 1 has a bottom portion 11 and a bottom casing 12 that is disposed outside the bottom portion 11. A heating portion for heating the liquid contained in the kettle body 1 is disposed at the center of the bottom portion 11. The specific structure and arrangement of the heating portion can be referred to In some electric kettles, the bottom case 12 shields most of the heating portion, so that the bottom case 12 serves as a base for supporting the entire body 1.

The junction of the spout 2 and the kettle body 1 is located at the bottom 11 of the kettle body 1, the joint is located on the side close to the spout 2, and the spout 2 communicates with the cavity for holding the liquid in the kettle body 1 and constitutes A U-shaped connector.
