Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of kettle manufacturing, and in particular relates to a method for manufacturing a vacuum kettle with an upturned spout. Background Art
[0002] The purpose of setting a spout on a kettle is to make it easier to pour water, ensure that the water flows out smoothly and gathers without dispersion, and prevent the water from flowing down along the kettle body when pouring. For the spout design of a vacuum kettle, since plastic parts are easier to mold, the spout and handle are usually molded in one piece using plastic material, and then installed on the mouth of the kettle. For example, the upper shoulder described in the invention patent application CN112716228A includes a pouring spout (spout) and a handle, and the upper shoulder is connected to the outer shell, the connecting ring and the liner; for example, the connecting piece described in the utility model patent CN204862366U is provided with a handle, and it can be clearly seen from the attached figure that the spout is provided on the connecting piece; the kettle of the above scheme has a spout made of plastic material, which has a poor texture and is easy to age, and the plastic material has a bad impression on health in the minds of consumers; for this reason, it is necessary to use a metal material to mold the spout in one piece with the kettle body, which is more beautiful, healthier, and has a better metal texture and lifespan; and in the prior art, the spout and the kettle body are molded in one piece, and then the spout is punched out at the mouth of the kettle, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1 As shown, the spout of a kettle using this method is generally lower than the mouth of the kettle, and an upturned structure of the spout cannot be produced. In addition, due to the ductility of the stainless steel material, the extent of its convexity is not large. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a vacuum kettle with an upturned spout, wherein the spout and the kettle body are integrally formed, the upturned amplitude of the spout is large, the pouring performance is good, and personalized needs can be met.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.

[0006] S1: taking a circular sheet, and performing a stretching forming process on the circular sheet to process a pot mouth blank, and then sequentially processing an outer flange and a spout on the pot mouth blank;
[0007] S2: Using laser as a cutting tool to cut the bottom of the lower end of the Hukou blank flat, forming a lower connecting opening, so that the Hukou blank is connected from top to bottom;
[0008] S3: Using a laser as a cutting tool to cut the spout of the pot mouth blank, according to the preset angle and size, the outer flange and the redundant part of the upper end of the pot mouth blank are cut off, so that the spout forms an upwardly tilted spout, and the upper end of the pot mouth blank forms an upper end, and the tilted height of the spout is higher than the upper end, and finally the pot mouth is formed;
[0009] S4: Take an inner liner body and an inner liner bottom, weld the lower port of the inner liner body and the upper port of the inner liner bottom, so that the inner liner body and the inner liner bottom are welded and connected to form an inner liner;

[0019] Preferably, the height of the connecting portion in step S5 is 4 to 6 mm.
[0020] Preferably, the height of the connecting portion is 5 mm.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: by adopting the above technical scheme, by first forming the spout in one piece on the mouth of the pot separately, the convex amplitude of the spout can be made larger, and the pouring performance of the spout with a larger size is better, and the method creatively cuts off the spout part and the redundant part of the upper end of the spout through the laser cutting process to form an integral upturned spout, which further improves the pouring performance and is personalized; in the subsequent processing steps, the processing sequence of two steps is more critical, step S5 and step S6, in the method of this scheme, the outer shell and the inner liner are first welded and connected, and the welding part is located 2-10 below the upper connection port of the outer shell. mm, and then weld the mouth of the kettle to the upper connecting port of the outer shell. This order can make the welding of the inner liner and the mouth of the kettle easier; if the mouth of the kettle is welded first, the inner liner will be inserted too deeply into the outer shell, which will make it difficult to match and weld the mouth, and if no connection is reserved on the outer shell, the welding between the mouth of the kettle and the outer shell will interfere with the mouth of the inner liner, causing welding difficulties; therefore, the above-mentioned technical solution can solve the existing technical problems and produce a vacuum kettle with an integrated spout and a kettle body, a large upward tilt of the spout, good pouring performance, and the ability to meet personalized needs, and at the same time provides a better process sequence route.
[0022] A further beneficial effect is that a step is added between steps S6 and S7 to perform plastic surgery on the connection part to eliminate the concave-convex deformation of the connection part caused by welding, thereby ensuring the aesthetics of the kettle and ensuring the regularity of the connection port on the outer shell so that it can be welded to the kettle mouth after docking, thereby improving the quality of welding.
[0023] A further beneficial effect is that a step is added between steps S8 and S9 to perform rolling and shaping treatment on the weld to eliminate the concave-convex deformation of the connection part and the side wall above the lower connection port caused by welding, eliminate the mark left by the welding, and ensure the aesthetics of the kettle.
[0024] A further beneficial effect is that the height of the connection is set to 4 to 6 mm, with 5 mm being selected. This size can ensure the rigidity of the connection and prevent deformation, improve the quality of butt welding, and at the same time, the upper port of the liner is least affected by welding, and this distance is also the optimal size for rolling shaping treatment.
