Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric kettle technology, and in particular to a low-noise electric kettle. Background Technology

[0002] An electric kettle typically consists of a kettle and a base, with a coupler between them for power connection. Water is naturally placed inside the kettle, and when the power is turned on, the coupler energizes the heating element at the bottom of the kettle, heating the water inside. Nowadays, electric kettles have become an indispensable household appliance. As people's living standards continue to improve, their demands for the quality of electric kettles are also increasing.

[0003] The power of existing electric kettles is constant. When boiling water at a higher power, more water vapor is produced after the water boils. The frequently produced water vapor will constantly hit the lid of the kettle, causing the lid to vibrate and make noise, which will affect the user's tea drinking experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a low-noise electric kettle. To solve the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution.

[0005] A low-noise electric kettle includes a base, a kettle assembly placed on the base, and a lid assembly covering the kettle assembly. A coupler is provided on the base, and a connector adapted to the coupler is provided at the bottom of the kettle assembly. The kettle assembly is placed above the coupler, and the base and kettle assembly are electrically connected via the coupler and connector. The base contains a power adjustment module, a button module, and a control panel. The bottom of the kettle assembly contains a heating module and a temperature sensing chip for detecting water temperature. The temperature sensing chip, heating module, control panel, button module, and power adjustment module are electrically connected, and the power adjustment module switches the boiling mode.

[0006] Furthermore, the power adjustment module includes a fast boiling button, a slow boiling button, and an adaptive boiling button, which are electrically connected to the control panel. After the adaptive boiling button is activated, as the water temperature in the kettle assembly gradually rises, the power of the heating module is gradually reduced by controlling the control panel.

[0007] Furthermore, the base is equipped with a water pumping module, and the bottom of the kettle assembly is equipped with a water inlet that connects to the water pumping module. The water pumping module includes at least two water pumps connected in series, a water inlet pipe exposed on one side of the base and connected to the water pumps, and a guide pipe located at the center of the coupler. The guide pipe is positioned corresponding to the water inlet, and external water enters the kettle assembly through the water inlet pipe, water pump, guide pipe, and water inlet in sequence.

[0008] Furthermore, the water inlet includes a water inlet channel located at the bottom of the kettle assembly and a one-way valve disposed on the water inlet channel. When the water pump is working, the one-way valve is opened for water to enter.

[0009] Furthermore, the four edge areas below the base are provided with recessed mounting grooves, and anti-slip components are installed in the mounting grooves.

[0010] Furthermore, the kettle assembly includes an outer shell, an inner shell, a spout on one side and a handle on the other side, and the inner shell has several water outlet holes on the side near the spout.

[0011] Furthermore, the lid assembly includes an upper lid, a lower lid, and a handle mounted at the center of the upper lid, with a raised limiting step on the outer edge of the upper lid abutting against the opening of the kettle.

[0012] Furthermore, an exhaust zone is formed between the recessed side of the lower cover and the inner shell, and an exhaust hole is provided on the upper cover, with the exhaust hole located above the exhaust zone.

[0013] Furthermore, the button module includes a water boiling button and a water adding button.

[0014] Furthermore, the kettle assembly includes a metal kettle assembly.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects that this utility model can achieve are:

[0016] The base of this utility model includes a power adjustment module, a button module, and a control panel. The bottom of the kettle assembly houses a heating module and a temperature-sensing chip for detecting water temperature. The temperature-sensing chip, heating module, control panel, button module, and power adjustment module are electrically connected. The power adjustment module includes a fast boiling button, a slow boiling button, and an adaptive boiling button. When the fast boiling button is activated, the control panel controls the heating module to increase its power for rapid boiling. When the slow boiling button is activated, the control panel controls the heating module to decrease its power for slow boiling. When the adaptive boiling button is activated, the control panel controls the heating module's power to gradually decrease as the water temperature rises. This prevents excessive power when the water in the kettle assembly is about to boil, which would generate too much steam and cause it to collide with the lid assembly, creating noise that would negatively impact the user experience. Furthermore, the user can switch between the three boiling modes as needed, offering multiple functionalities and ensuring a good user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a low-noise electric kettle includes a base 1, a kettle assembly 2 placed on the base 1, and a lid assembly 3 covering the kettle assembly 2. A coupler 4 is provided on the base 1, and a connector 5 adapted to the coupler 4 is provided at the bottom of the kettle assembly 2. The kettle assembly 2 is placed above the coupler 4, and electrical connection between the base 1 and the kettle assembly 2 is achieved through contact between the coupler 4 and the connector 5. The base 1 contains a power adjustment module 5, a button module 6, and a control panel 8. The bottom of the kettle assembly 2 contains a heating module 9 and a temperature sensing chip 10 for detecting water temperature. The temperature sensing chip 10, heating module 9, control panel 8, button module 6, and power adjustment module 7 are electrically connected. The power adjustment module 7 allows switching between different boiling modes, providing multiple different boiling modes and strong functionality to meet the different boiling needs of users under different conditions.

[0025] The power adjustment module 7 includes a fast boiling button 31, a slow boiling button 32, and an adaptive boiling button 33, which are electrically connected to the control panel 8. When the fast boiling button 31 is pressed, the control panel 8 controls the heating module 9 to heat the water in the kettle assembly 2 at high power, resulting in faster boiling speed but also higher noise. Users can activate the fast boiling button 31 when they urgently need hot water. When the slow boiling button 31 is pressed, the control panel 8 controls the heating module 9 to boil water at lower power, requiring a longer boiling time but with lower noise and power consumption. Users can activate the slow boiling button 32 when they are not in a hurry. After the adaptive boiling button 33 is activated, the heating module 9 initially boils water at high power. As the water temperature in the kettle assembly 2 gradually rises, the control panel 8 controls the heating module 9 to gradually reduce the power, resulting in a moderate boiling speed. This avoids excessive steam generated when the water in the kettle assembly 2 is about to boil, which could cause the lid assembly 3 to continuously collide with the kettle assembly 2, generating noise that would affect the user experience and ensure a good user experience.

[0026] The base 1 is also equipped with a water pumping module 22. The bottom of the kettle assembly 2 is equipped with a water inlet 23 that connects to the water pumping module 22. After the water pumping module 22 is started, external water flows into the kettle assembly 2 through the water pumping module 22 and the water inlet 23. There is no need to manually lift the kettle assembly 1 to fill it with water. The water can be automatically replenished by pressing the button module 6, which meets the convenience of daily use for users.

[0027] The water pumping module 22 includes at least two water pumps 24 connected in series, an inlet pipe 25 exposed on one side of the base 1 and connected to the water pumps 24, and a guide pipe 26 located at the center of the coupler 4. The guide pipe 26 corresponds to the position of the water inlet 23. External water enters the kettle assembly 1 sequentially through the inlet pipe 25, the water pumps 24, and the guide pipe 26 for water replenishment. Traditional water pumps occupy a large volume, which requires the base 1 to be thick to accommodate the water pumps. If the water pump is small, the water pumping efficiency may be low, resulting in a slow water replenishment speed in the kettle. This design replaces the traditional water pump with multiple water pumps connected in series, reducing the height of the water pumps without affecting the water pumping efficiency. Therefore, the base 1 can be manufactured thinner, with a higher aesthetic appeal. The thinner base 1 also makes it easier for users to place the kettle assembly 2 on the base 1, saving more effort.

[0028] The water inlet 23 includes a water inlet channel 27 located at the bottom of the kettle assembly 2 and a one-way valve 28 provided on the water inlet channel 27. When the water pump is turned on, the one-way valve 28 is opened by water pressure to allow water to enter. After the water supply is completed, the one-way valve 28 is closed, and the water inside the kettle assembly 2 cannot flow back through the one-way valve 28.

[0029] The kettle assembly 2 includes an outer shell 11, an inner shell 12, a spout 13 on one side, and a handle 14 on the other side. The user grips the handle 14 and tilts the entire kettle assembly 2 to pour water, which gradually flows out along the path of the spout 13. The double shell design of the inner shell 11 and the outer shell 12 helps to increase heat preservation performance and prevent the temperature of the water inside from dropping too quickly over time.

[0030] The inner shell 12 has several water outlet holes 15 on the side near the spout 13. When pouring water, the water inside enters the spout 13 through the water outlet holes 15, which avoids pouring out too much water at once and helps to control the amount of water poured.

[0031] The lid assembly 3 includes an upper cover 16, a lower cover 17, and a handle 18 installed at the center of the upper cover 16. The lid assembly 3 can be picked up by gripping the handle 18. The outer edge of the upper cover 16 is provided with a raised limiting step 19 to abut against the opening of the kettle assembly 2. When the lid assembly 3 is closed, the lower cover 17 is inside the kettle assembly 2. The raised limiting step 19 on the outer edge abuts against the lower cover to prevent the lid assembly 3 from falling into the kettle assembly 2.

[0032] The gap between the recessed side of the lower cover 17 and the inner shell 12 forms a venting zone 20. The upper cover 16 is provided with a venting hole 21, which is located above the venting zone 20. When boiling water, the water vapor generated inside first enters the venting zone 20 and then exits through the venting hole 21, preventing the internal air pressure from being too high and opening the cover assembly 3.

[0033] The button module 6 includes a boiling water button and a water adding button. Pressing the boiling water button starts or stops the heating module 9, and pressing the water adding button starts the water pumping module 22 to continue water supply.

[0034] The heating module 9 includes a heating wire, which heats the water in the kettle assembly 2 by means of electric heating.

[0035] The base 1 has four recessed mounting grooves 30 on its lower edge areas. Anti-slip elements 29 are installed in the mounting grooves 30 to increase friction and prevent slippage. By designing the mounting grooves 30 to be recessed, the anti-slip elements 29 are partially located inside the mounting grooves 30 and partially exposed after installation, further reducing the overall thickness of the base 1.

[0036] The kettle assembly 1 includes a metal kettle assembly. The metal material has a textured feel and is relatively hard, making it less prone to breakage.

[0037] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this invention, and no reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
