Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electric heating kettles, in particular to an ultrasonic cleaning kettle. Background Art

[0002] Electric kettles are daily necessities frequently used in households. Since tap water contains a certain amount of impurities, these impurities will form scale and adsorb on the inner wall of the kettle after long-term use. These scales will affect the heating efficiency and service life of the kettle, have an impact on human health, and affect the appearance. Therefore, the problem of kettle scale cleaning has attracted people's attention.

[0003] The traditional cleaning method is mainly through manual brushing, but this method has limited cleaning effect and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. When using professional cleaning tools for cleaning, although the corresponding cleaning effect is achieved, these cleaning tools are used less frequently and take up space, especially metal brushes that can easily damage the inner wall of the kettle. The existing technology has defects and deficiencies during use, so it is necessary to improve it.

[0038] Example 1

[0039] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a kettle with ultrasonic self-cleaning function of the present invention is demonstrated, which mainly utilizes the ultrasonic descaling principle.
