DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The utility model provides an embodiment: a connection structure of an electric kettle, comprising a kettle body 1, a connecting base 2 is arranged on the lower surface of the kettle body 1, a connecting block 3 is fixedly connected inside the connecting base 2, a heating element 4 is slidably connected inside the connecting block 3, a fixing block 5 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the heating element 4, a clamping block 6 is slidably connected inside the fixing block 5, a connecting seat 7 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting base 2, a groove 8 is arranged inside the connecting seat 7, a sliding ring 9 is slidably connected inside the connecting seat 7, a clamping groove 10 is arranged inside the sliding ring 9, an outer wall of the clamping block 6 abuts against the inner wall of the clamping groove 10, a connecting plate 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the sliding ring 9, a spring 12 is arranged on the lower surface of the connecting plate 11, one end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected to the inside of the connecting seat 7, and a fixing component is arranged inside the connecting base 2.

[0025] Specifically, through the snap-fit ​​design between the kettle body 1 and the connecting seat 7 on the connecting base 2, a firm connection between the card block 6 and the card groove 10 on the sliding ring 9 is achieved. When the kettle body 1 is pressed down, the sliding ring 9 slides smoothly inside the connecting seat 7, prompting the heating element 4 to be in close contact with the heating element in the connecting seat 7, thereby achieving a high-efficiency heating effect. When the kettle body 1 is removed, the elastic force of the spring 12 resets the sliding ring 9, effectively closing the internal space of the connecting seat 7, achieving a waterproof and dustproof protection effect, effectively avoiding the risk of the connecting base 2 being damaged by water intrusion, and extending the service life of the connecting base 2.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The fixing component includes a knob 14, the outer wall of the knob 14 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting base 2, a groove 13 is provided inside the connecting base 2, a rotating block 15 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the knob 14, a fixed block 16 is fixedly connected to the inside of the rotating block 15, a limiting block 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting base 2, a limiting groove 18 is provided inside the limiting block 17, the outer wall of the fixed block 16 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 18, an insulating layer 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the kettle body 1, a pot cover 20 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the kettle body 1, a rubber strip 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the pot cover 20, and a spout 22 is fixedly connected to the inside of the pot cover 20.

[0027] Specifically, the outer wall of the kettle body 1 is firmly installed with an insulating layer 19. When the amount of water in the kettle is heavy, the insulating layer 19 can effectively block the heat, making it convenient for the user to operate the kettle body 1 safely and smoothly, thereby improving the safety of the electric kettle. By rotating the knob 14, the fixing block 16 can be smoothly embedded in the limit block 17, simplifying the disassembly process of the connecting base 2, shortening the time required for maintenance and disassembly, and further enhancing its practical performance. The rubber strip 21 connected to the kettle cover 20 can effectively prevent boiling water from overflowing, thereby improving the functionality and safety of the electric kettle.

[0028] Working principle: when the connection structure of the electric kettle is needed, the kettle body 1 is inserted into the connection seat 7 on the connection base 2, so that the block 6 connected to the fixed block 5 can be inserted into the slot 10 opened by the sliding ring 9, and the kettle body 1 is pressed down to make the sliding ring 9 slide inside the connection seat 7, so that the heating element 4 can contact the heating element inside the connection seat 7, and the kettle body 1 is taken away, and the spring 12 drives the sliding ring 9 to reset and close the inside of the connection seat 7, so as to achieve the effect of waterproof and dustproof, and as long as the fixed block 5 connected to the kettle body 1 is stuck in the connection seat 7, the sliding ring 9 can be automatically opened, so as to improve the practicality of the electric kettle and avoid The connection base 2 is prevented from being damaged by liquid intrusion, and the service life of the connection base 2 is extended. The outer wall of the kettle body 1 is fixedly connected with an insulating layer 19. When the weight of the water in the kettle body 1 is large, the insulating layer 19 can insulate and facilitate the user to smoothly take the kettle body 1, thereby improving the practicality of the electric kettle. Turning the knob 14 can make the fixing block 16 fit into the limiting block 17, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the connection base 2, shortening the maintenance time, and improving the practicality of the electric kettle. The rubber strip 21 connected to the kettle cover 20 can prevent boiling water from overflowing, and the spout 22 is arranged on the kettle cover 20 to increase the safety of the kettle body 1.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
