Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of daily ware, and in particular relates to a kettle which prevents water from spreading out at a kettle mouth when poured. Background Art

[0002] There are generally two designs for the water spout of the kettle: 1. Figure 1 The design with drainage water outlet Z1 shown in A. 2. Figure 1 B shows the design of the water outlet Z2 without drainage channel.

[0003] The first type of spout design with a drainage channel allows water to flow directly through the spout's drainage channel after the plug is released during pouring, preventing it from dispersing at the mouth of the pot. However, the required drainage channel typically requires a height difference of at least 15mm to prevent water from dispersing during pouring. This required height difference limits the shape and structure of the pot's mouth, resulting in a relatively simple design.

[0004] The second type of spout design, with a drainage channel and no water channel, eliminates the need for a water channel. The spout can be designed with a wide mouth and doesn't need to consider height differences. This lack of a drainage channel provides more options for the shape of the kettle's mouth, effectively enriching the kettle's appearance. However, without a drainage channel, the water disperses at the mouth of the kettle when pouring, easily spilling onto the outside of the water cup and onto the outer wall of the cup, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a kettle with a simple structure and which can prevent water from spreading when poured, thereby improving user experience.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a kettle that prevents water from spreading out at the mouth of the kettle when poured, comprising a wide-mouthed kettle body without a drainage channel at the water outlet and a kettle cover cooperatively connected to the kettle body, characterized in that: the kettle cover comprises an inner plug and a top cover, and after the top cover and the inner plug are assembled, the side wall of the top cover blocks the upper part of the water outlet of the inner plug, and the area of the exposed part of the water outlet after blocking is 45%-55% of the total area of the inner plug water outlet.

[0007] Furthermore, a step notch is provided on the upper part of the water outlet channel opening of the inner plug, and a water outlet notch is provided on the side wall of the top cover. After the top cover and the inner plug are assembled, the side wall of the top cover above the water outlet notch contacts and cooperates with the step notch to seal the upper part of the water outlet channel opening. The water outlet notch corresponds to the exposed part of the water outlet channel opening of the inner plug.

[0008] Furthermore, the exposed portion of the water outlet channel of the inner plug is in the shape of a transversely arranged rectangle, and its length is 1.6 to 2 times its width.

[0009] Furthermore, a vertically arranged positioning and anti-rotation square groove is provided on the inner side surface of the side wall of the top cover, and a connecting buckle rib is provided on the lower part of the inner side surface of the side wall of the top cover; a positioning card slot and a connecting buckle groove are provided on the inner plug; during assembly, the positioning and anti-rotation square groove cooperates with the positioning card slot for positioning, and the connecting buckle rib cooperates with the connecting buckle groove for clamping.

[0010] Furthermore, the kettle lid also includes a middle control button installed on the top cover and a switch component arranged in the inner plug for controlling the opening or closing of the water outlet channel.

[0011] Furthermore, an airflow exchange channel is provided on the inner plug 1. When the middle button is pressed to open the water outlet channel of the inner plug, the external air and the gas in the kettle body can be exchanged through the airflow exchange channel.

[0012] Furthermore, the area of the exposed portion of the water outlet channel opening of the inner plug is 50% of the total area of the water outlet channel opening.

[0013] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that: by adopting the structure of the present invention, water can be discharged smoothly even for a water outlet structure without a drainage water channel. Specifically, by reducing the area of the inner plug water outlet channel, the water flow pressure is increased when water is discharged, and a water column can be formed to concentrate the water outflow and flow out along the inner wall of the spout, effectively preventing the water flow from dispersing.

[0014] The structure of the present invention eliminates the need for a drainage channel for the water spout, providing more options for the structural design of the kettle mouth and diversifying the product appearance. It also reduces the difficulty of product design and mold manufacturing, simplifies production and assembly, and reduces production costs. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the present invention provides a kettle for preventing water from spreading out at the mouth of the kettle when poured, comprising a wide-mouthed kettle body 200 with no drainage channel at the water outlet and a kettle cover 100 cooperatively connected to the kettle body.

[0025] Specifically, the pot lid 100 includes an inner plug 1 and a top cover 2. The inner plug 1 has a water outlet channel 12 and an outer screw thread 13. The inner plug 1 is threadedly connected to the pot body 200, and after being firmly connected, the outlet of the inner plug's water outlet channel is aligned with the water outlet of the pot body. The inner plug 1 has a water outlet channel 12. After the top cover 2 and the inner plug 1 are assembled, the side wall of the top cover blocks the upper part of the outlet of the water outlet channel. After blocking, the area S2 of the exposed part of the outlet of the water outlet channel is 45%-55% of the total area S1 of the inner plug outlet. With this design, after assembly, the upper part of the outlet of the inner plug outlet channel is blocked, and the outlet area suddenly becomes smaller. When pouring water, the pressure of the water flowing out of the outlet channel increases, thereby accelerating the flow rate of the water and concentrating the water outflow, and flowing out along the inner wall of the spout, without the problem of water dispersion.

[0026] Preferably, a stepped notch 11 is provided at the upper portion of the water outlet opening of the inner plug 1, and a water outlet notch 21 is provided on the side wall of the top cover 2. When the top cover 2 and the inner plug 1 are assembled, the side wall of the top cover above the water outlet notch 21 contacts and engages with the stepped notch 11, sealing the upper portion of the water outlet opening. The water outlet notch 21 corresponds to the exposed portion of the water outlet opening of the inner plug. This design can achieve the purpose of shielding the water outlet while ensuring the effect of the assembly, and the overall visual effect is also good.

[0027] Preferably, the exposed portion of the outlet of the inner plug 1 is a horizontally arranged rectangular shape, and the length is 1.6 to 2 times the width. The use of a rectangular outlet of this specification is more effective in preventing the water flow from spreading.

[0028] Preferably, the inner side surface of the side wall of the top cover 2 is provided with a vertically arranged positioning and anti-rotation square groove 25, which is arranged opposite to the water outlet notch 21. A connecting buckle rib 26 is provided at the lower portion of the inner side surface of the top cover side wall; and the inner plug is provided with a positioning card slot 15 and a connecting buckle groove 16. During assembly, the positioning and anti-rotation square groove 25 is aligned with the positioning card slot 15 and then pressed downward until the connecting buckle rib 26 and the connecting buckle groove 16 engage and clamp, completing the assembly of the top cover and the inner plug. The positioning and anti-rotation square groove 25 and the positioning card slot 15 cooperate to prevent the top cover from rotating, ensuring that the water outlet notch 21 of the top cover is aligned with the exposed portion of the water outlet channel of the inner plug after connection.

[0029] Specifically, the lid 100 of this embodiment has a center-press switch function. Specifically, a center-press button 3 is installed on the top cover 2, and a switch assembly 4 is installed in the inner plug 1. By pressing the center-press button 3, the switch assembly 4 is actuated to open or close the water outlet channel. The state of the water outlet channel being closed is as follows: Figure 2 As shown; the state when the water outlet channel is open is as follows Figure 7 shown.

[0030] Preferably, the inner plug 1 is also provided with an airflow exchange channel 14. When the middle button 2 is pressed to open the water outlet of the inner plug 1, external air and the gas inside the kettle can be exchanged through the airflow exchange channel 14. The provision of the airflow exchange channel 14 can achieve balanced air pressure inside and outside the kettle, making pouring easier. When the kettle is filled with a hot beverage, the water outlet channel is opened to release pressure through the built-in airflow exchange channel 14, preventing high-temperature and high-pressure water vapor from escaping from the outlet when pouring.

[0031] The present invention's design of a top cover and inner plug prevents the problem of water dispersing around the spout when pouring. Of course, those skilled in the art could also weld a cutoff block onto the inner plug's outlet, or directly create a cutoff block on the inner plug's outlet using a complex secondary injection mold structure, similarly achieving the present invention's effect of preventing water from dispersing during pouring. However, this would involve complex molds, multiple steps, and high manufacturing costs, making it unsuitable for mass production.

[0032] The above content is only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention. Simple modifications or equivalent substitutions of the technical solution of the present invention made by ordinary technicians in this field do not deviate from the essence and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
