Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electric kettles, in particular to an electric kettle with a tea preheating function. Background Art

[0002] Before brewing tea, tea leaves should be preheated. First, to raise the temperature of tea leaves to be close to the water temperature for brewing tea, thereby improving the quality of tea soup. Second, after the tea leaves are preheated, as the temperature of the tea soup rises, it is helpful to appreciate the aroma of tea leaves and identify the quality of tea leaves. The following methods can generally be used to preheat tea leaves: one method is to first pour boiling water over the pot to warm it, put in an appropriate amount of tea leaves, cover the pot and simmer the tea leaves for 1 minute, then open the lid to appreciate the aroma of the tea leaves. Another method is to warm the teapot and put in tea leaves, and pour the tea water with a suitable temperature into the pot in a circular manner (i.e., pour it in a clockwise arc). It should be noted that once the tea leaves are soaked, they should stop, cover the pot immediately, and pour out the tea in the pot immediately. At this time, the tea leaves in the pot have absorbed heat and moisture, and the tea preheating is completed. The first method, especially in cold weather, requires a large amount of hot water to pour over the tea set to reach the appropriate temperature to simmer the tea leaves; the second method requires skilled techniques and quick movements. How to design an electric kettle with tea preheating function and convenient and simple preheating operation is a technical problem to be solved by the utility model. Utility Model Content

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0018] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact with the second feature through an intermediate medium, and a first feature being "above", "above" or "above" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0019] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model provides an electric kettle. The electric kettle comprises a kettle body 1 and a kettle cover 2 arranged at the upper end of the kettle body. The electric kettle also comprises a preheating plate 3, and the preheating plate 3 comprises a plate body 31 and a hanging member 32. The hanging member 32 is used to hang the preheating plate 3 in the upper end of the kettle body 1.

[0020] The kettle body 1 is a basic facility for containing water, and an electric heating assembly is arranged at the bottom thereof, and the kettle cover 2 is arranged at the upper end of the kettle body 1. The preheating plate 3 is hung in the upper end of the kettle body 1 through a hanging member 32.

[0021] During use, first add water to the kettle body 1, then connect the electric kettle to the power supply, start the heating function, the water temperature rises, and the preheating plate 3 is heated. At this time, open the kettle cover 2, place the tea leaves in the preheating plate 3, and then cover the kettle cover 2 to preheat the tea leaves in the kettle. The tea leaves absorb heat and moisture through water vapor, thereby realizing the preheating function. After the preheating is completed, open the kettle cover 2, and you can appreciate the aroma released by the tea leaves. Then, pour the preheated tea leaves into the tea set for brewing, which can greatly improve the quality of the tea soup.

[0022] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the hanging member 32 adopts an inverted L-shaped design and is connected to the outside of the plate body 31 through a connecting strip 34, so that the hanging member 32 can be hung on the edge of the upper port of the kettle body 1. This design allows the preheating plate 3 to be fixed in the kettle body 1 more firmly.

[0023] In another specific embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the hanging member 32 is formed by extending upward along the side wall of the plate body 31 and then folding outward. Through this arrangement, the hanging member 32 can be hung on the edge of the upper port of the kettle body 1. Figure 3 As shown, the hanging member 32 further includes an outer folding edge folded downward from the outer edge of the outer folding edge.

[0024] In another specific embodiment, the preheating tray 3 further includes a handle 33. The handle 33 is connected to the hanging member 32 and is placed outside the kettle body 1. With this arrangement, the user can use the handle 33 to take the preheating tray 3 out of the kettle body 1, which is easy to operate and can prevent the user's hands from directly touching the high-temperature preheating tray 3, thereby improving the safety of use.

[0025] In summary, the electric kettle of the present invention can not only effectively preheat tea leaves and improve the quality of tea, but also is easy to operate, which can greatly improve the user experience.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformation made using the contents of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
