The handle assembly 400 includes a first handle 410 and a second handle 420. The first handle 410 and the second handle 420 are spaced apart along the circumference of the kettle body assembly 100. Both ends of the first handle 410 are respectively hinged to the outer peripheral side of the kettle body assembly 100, and both ends of the second handle 420 are respectively hinged to the outer peripheral side of the kettle body assembly 100, so that the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 can be close to or away from each other, which can reduce the overall volume of the electric kettle and facilitate users to carry and transport it.

[0056] Specifically, when the kettle seat assembly 200 is in use, the user can rotate the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 in a direction away from the kettle body assembly 100 so that the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 are close to each other, which can facilitate the user to hold the first handle 410 and the second handle 420. When the kettle seat assembly 200 is in the storage state, the user can rotate the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 in a direction close to the kettle body assembly 100 so that the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 are away from each other, so that the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 can both contact the outer peripheral side of the kettle body assembly 100, which can reduce the overall volume of the electric kettle and facilitate the user to carry and transport it.

The first abutting surface 411 can fit with the second abutting surface 421, and can limit the relative movement of the first handle 410 and the second handle 420. When the user holds the first handle 410 and the second handle 420, the handle assembly 400 can be prevented from moving relative to the kettle body assembly 100, and the reliability of the use of the electric kettle can be improved.

[0058] Specifically, the first abutting surface 411 and the second abutting surface 421 are both planar structures. When the user holds the first handle 410 and the second handle 420, the first abutting surface 411 abuts against the second abutting surface 421, which can limit the relative movement of the first handle 410 and the second handle 420, and can avoid the handle assembly 400 from moving relative to the kettle body assembly 100, which can improve the reliability of the electric kettle.

[0059] It should be noted that the first abutting surface 411 and the second abutting surface 421 may also be arcuate structures or curved structures, and the shape of the first abutting surface 411 can match the shape of the second abutting surface 421, which is not limited here.

[0060] It should be pointed out that a limiting structure is provided between the first handle 410 and the second handle 420, and the limiting structure is used to limit the separation of the first handle 410 and the second handle 420. The limiting structure includes a slot 412 provided on the first abutting surface 411 and a column 422 provided on the second abutting surface 421. The column 422 is accommodated in the slot 412 and can abut against the side wall of the slot 412 to limit the separation of the first handle 410 and the second handle 420. When the user releases the handle assembly 400, the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 cannot be separated automatically, which can facilitate the user to hold the handle assembly 400, thereby improving the user experience. It will not be described in detail here. When the user needs to carry or transport the electric kettle, the user can manually separate the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 to allow the clamping column 422 to exit the clamping slot 412, and then respectively rotate the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 in a direction close to the kettle body assembly 100, thereby reducing the overall volume of the electric kettle and making it easier for the user to carry and transport the electric kettle. Of course, in some specific embodiments, the positions of the clamping slot 412 and the clamping column 422 can also be interchanged, that is, the clamping slot 412 is provided on the second handle 420, and the clamping column 422 is provided on the first handle 410, which is not limited here.

[0061] It can be understood that the limiting structure can also be a magnetic structure or a bolt connection structure. When the limiting structure is a magnetic structure, the magnetic structure includes a first magnet provided on the first handle 410 and a second magnet provided on the second handle 420. The first magnet and the second magnet have different magnetic properties, so that the first magnet can magnetically attract the second magnet, so that the first handle 410 and the second handle 420 have a tendency to approach each other, and can also limit the separation of the first handle 410 and the second handle 420, which will not be described in detail here.
