Problems solved by technology

One effect of this is that the contact between the overheating sensor and the diffuser plate will become unreliable, thus exacerbating the above problem by increasing the time for the sensor to respond to overheating
There would also be a risk of insufficient electrical contact between the control unit attached to the heater and the cordless electric base, and also between the base molding attached to the control unit (and thus to the heater) and the body. Risk of unacceptable gap opening, especially in metal pots

Embodiment Construction

[0064] figure 1 A liquid heating vessel according to the invention is shown. The container comprises a main container part 2 and a cordless base 4 allowing a cordless connection to a mains power supply by means of an electrical plug 6 . Included in the main container part 2 is a liquid receiving chamber mainly defined by an outer wall 8, a spout 10 for pouring heated liquid out of the container, a handle 12 at the rear for lifting and pouring the container and opening for use with fresh Water fills the lid 14 of the container.

[0065] figure 2 An exploded view of the main container 2 is shown, in particular the components forming the lower part of the main container. These components will be described in more detail with reference to the figures that follow. From the bottom, a molded base cover 16 of generally circular shape can be seen, having a peripheral upstanding edge 18 defining a plurality of snap formations 20, the purpose of which will be described hereinafter. ...

Abstract

A liquid heating vessel (2) is disclosed which comprises: a liquid receiving chamber (8); a metal heater plate (32) closing an opening in the base of the chamber; a heating element (26) in good thermal contact with the heater plate; a control unit (24) attached to the heater plate and arranged to sense an overheating of the heating element; and a support member (16) attached to the control unit (24) and bearing on a peripheral region of the heater plate (32) so as to apply a tension through the control unit (24) which acts on the heater plate (32) in a direction away from the interior of the liquid receiving chamber (8). In addition or alternatively the support member (16) is attached to the control unit (24) and bears on a peripheral region of the heater plate (32) without being attached thereto. Also disclosed is a sub-assembly for such a liquid heating vessel comprising the heater plate (32), heating element (26), control unit (24) and support member (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to liquid heating vessels and subassemblies thereof. The present invention relates particularly, but not necessarily exclusively, to containers and subassemblies that can be produced at a lower cost than conventional products without sacrificing safety performance. Background technique [0002] A liquid heating vessel used to boil water is often called a pitcher or kettle. Polypropylene molded pitchers or jugs are usually constructed as follows. The outer container walls with the lid form the sides and top of the container. A heater plate with heating elements mounted on its underside forms some or all of the base of the vessel. The heater board is connected to a thermally sensitive control unit, such as one of the applicant's widely used U18 series control units. The control unit provides electrical and thermal functions, such as turning off power to the element when the water in the container boils or when the elemen...
