Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of kettles, in particular to a small-volume fixed handle type kettle. Background Art

[0002] The handle of the kettle, which is very common on the market now, is usually set on one side. The reason is not only to prevent burns, but also to save space. Although it saves space, it does not save effort. In addition, the kettle with the handle set on one side usually cannot be used with an open flame. Therefore, it is more convenient and labor-saving to move the kettle outdoors or up and down the stairs at home.

[0003] At present, there are two types of handles on kettles: fixed and rotating. The distance between the handle and the kettle lid is generally controlled at 60 mm to prevent the kettle lid and steam from scalding the user's hands. If the handle is fixed, the height of 60 mm is relatively space-consuming for a kettle. The rotating connection method allows the handle to be folded when it is not needed, which can solve the problem of occupying space. However, the rotating handle also has disadvantages. The gasket on the handle shaft will fail after long-term use, so that the handle will shake during pouring water, which will cause safety hazards. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1-5 ;

[0028] The kettle described in the utility model adopts a fixed handle design, specifically including a kettle body and a kettle cover 2 that are detachably connected. The kettle cover 2 is provided with a heat insulation structure. The handle body 3 in this embodiment can be fixedly arranged on the kettle body, or fixedly connected to the kettle cover 2, which can ultimately achieve the same technical effect. In the prior art, the exhaust hole 15 is usually designed on the kettle cover 2. When the water boils, the steam is discharged from the exhaust hole 15, which just corresponds to the position of the handle body 3, resulting in scalding of the hands. In this embodiment, the exhaust hole 15 is arranged on the kettle body. More specifically, the kettle generally has a maximum water level line to remind the user, so the exhaust hole 15 can be arranged above the maximum water level line. The lateral exhaust method is adopted to avoid the position of the handle body 3, thereby avoiding scalding of the hands. In addition, by arranging a heat insulating structure on the pot lid 2, even if the fingers are close to the pot lid 2, they will not feel hot. By changing the position of the exhaust hole 15 and cooperating with the heat insulating structure arranged on the pot lid 2, the distance between the handle body 3 and the end face of the pot lid 2 can be shortened as much as possible. Normally, the distance between the handle body 3 and the end face of the pot lid 2 is 60mm, and the above structure can reduce the distance between the handle body 3 and the end face of the pot lid 2 to h, h is 40mm-25mm. Since the pot lid 2 will not burn, this is not a limited safety distance, but is only for providing space for fingers to penetrate.

[0029] Based on the fixed connection of the handle body 3, water pouring can be stable without shaking, and the distance between the handle body 3 and the pot lid 2 can be shortened, which greatly reduces the overall volume of the kettle. When it needs to be carried out, it occupies less space and is easy to store.

[0030] It should be noted that if the handle body 3 is fixedly connected to the kettle body, space should be reserved for taking out the kettle lid 2. Preferably, the kettle body opening, the kettle lid 2 and the handle body 3 correspond to each other in a straight line. In life, the kettle body opening is not necessarily opened in the center position. For example, the kettle body is relatively large and the opening is relatively small. In this way, the opening may be set in an eccentric position, and the span of the handle is also relatively large. However, based on the present technical solution, the opening, the kettle lid 2 and the handle body 3 are still kept in a straight line, and the overall longitudinal height of the kettle can still be shortened, which should fall within the protection scope of the technical solution.

[0031] In the embodiment of the utility model, the heat insulation structure of the pot cover 2 can be covered with a heat insulation pad on the surface of the pot cover 2. This method is suitable for electric kettles, wherein the pot body, the pot cover 2 and the handle body 3 can be made of plastic, and of course the inner tank for holding water is still made of edible grade stainless steel; or the pot body, the pot cover 2 and the handle body 3 are all made of metal materials, but are still heated by electric heating, and the heat insulation pad can also be used;

[0032] If the use environment is heated by open flame, the pot body, pot lid 2 and handle body 3 must be made of metal material. Since the temperature of open flame is very high, the heat insulation structure adopts a vacuum structure of the pot lid 2 as heat insulation. Of course, the vacuum method does not mean that the temperature of the pot lid 2 will not rise. The pot lid 2 will still have a certain temperature rise due to external influences, but the rising temperature will not burn the hands, which complies with safety regulations. Preferably, under the premise of vacuum structure, the surface of the pot lid 2 is covered with a silicone pad to further achieve a heat insulation effect.

[0033] The utility model discloses two ways of connecting the kettle cover 2 and the kettle body;

[0034] The first method, refer to Figure 2 The kettle cover 2 is connected to the kettle body by a threaded lock 4, that is, the kettle cover 2 is fixed to the kettle body by rotating the thread. For details, please refer to the rotating buckle in the public technical document "CN204670913U, an anti-dumping electric kettle";

[0035] The second method, refer to Figure 1 , the pot cover 2 is connected to the pot body through the buckle structure 5;

[0036] Regardless of which method is used, if the handle body 3 is fixedly connected to the pot body, this will cause the pot lid 2 to have very little room for movement, making it difficult to take out. Therefore, the handle body 3 is preferably fixedly connected to the pot lid 2. After the handle body 3 is connected to the pot lid 2, it is more convenient to open or close the pot lid 2. Furthermore, the handle body 3 and the pot lid 2 adopt an integrally formed structure, which is more convenient for production.

[0037] The utility model describes in detail the second connection mode, wherein one end of the pot cover 2 is rotatably connected to the pot body, and the other end is detachably connected to the pot body through a buckle structure 5. There are many implementation methods for the buckle structure 5, one of which is that there is a movable lock on the other side of the handle body 3, and the lock cooperates with the hook of the pot body 11 to realize the function of opening and closing the pot cover 2; and this embodiment adopts the following structure:

[0038] Reference Figure 3-Figure 5 Specifically, it includes a slot 51 arranged near the opening of the pot body, a horizontally extending step 1 52 is arranged at the slot 51, an open mounting position 53 is arranged in the handle beam body 3, a movable block 54 is arranged in the mounting position 53, the movable block 54 slides in the mounting position 53, a spring 55 is arranged between the movable block 54 and the inner wall of the movable cavity, and of course, the mounting position 53 should be provided with a corresponding limiting structure at the opening to prevent the movable block 54 from sliding out of the mounting position 53, and a step 2 56 is arranged on the other side of the movable block 54, and the step 2 56 extends out of the mounting position 53; a switch assembly is provided on the handle beam body 3 for making the platform Step one 52 and step two 56 are unhooked; preferably, both step one 52 and step two 56 are provided with inclined surfaces. When the pot cover 2 needs to be fixed, the inclined surfaces of step one 52 and step two 56 cooperate with each other to push the movable block 54 to compress the spring 55 to move into the installation position 53. When step two 56 is located below step one 52, the movable block 54 is moved forward under the thrust of the spring 55, so that step one 52 and step two 56 are stacked downward and buckled, and the switch assembly actively pushes the movable block 54 into the installation position 53, so that step one 52 and step two 56 are misaligned, that is, unlocking is achieved.

[0039] Further, the switch assembly includes a knob 571 rotatably connected to the handle body 3, a torsion spring 572 is provided at the rotatable connection, and a first resistance block 573 is provided at a position of the knob 571 close to the movable block 54, the first resistance block cooperates with the second resistance block 574, and the second resistance block 574 is provided on the movable block 54;

[0040] There are also two ways to set the knob 571. One way is that the rotation direction of the knob 571 is the same as the extension direction of the handle body 3. When the knob 571 rotates forward, the resistance block 1 573 rotates backward. The resistance block 1 573 keeps in contact with the resistance block 2 574, and gradually moves backward as the resistance block 1 573 rotates, thereby pushing the resistance block 1 573 to move backward, and the movable block 54 will also move backward with it.

[0041] The second method is that the rotation direction of the knob 571 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the handle body 3, the resistance block 1 573 is arranged at the end of the knob 571, and the resistance block 1 573 is an arc block, which gradually becomes thicker from one end to the other end. When the step 1 52 and the step 2 56 are in a locked state, the thinner side of the arc block in the initial state conflicts with the resistance block 2 574. When unlocking is required, the knob 571 is rotated to make the arc block gradually transition to the thicker side, and at the same time, the resistance block 2 574 is gradually pushed backward, that is, the movable block 54 is pushed backward to make the step 2 56 separate from the step 1 52. After unlocking, the knob 571 is released, and the knob 571 will be reset under the action of the torsion spring 572, that is, the contact position between the arc block and the resistance block 2 574 will gradually transition from the thicker side to the thinner side. At the same time, the movable block 54 is pushed out and reset under the action of the spring 55.

[0042] Furthermore, the arc block 573 can be in the shape of a "C" or "L" arc surface, which also gradually becomes thicker from one end to the other end. This can increase the contact area with the resistance block 2 574, so that it can better withstand the backward force and avoid unlocking failure.

[0043] Preferably, the setting position of the knob 571 will change according to the shape of the handle body 3. For example, if the handle body 3 adopts an arc-shaped design, then the knob 571 is designed to be inclined. In addition, the interference block 1 573 always maintains interference with the interference block 2 574. A limiting protrusion 582 is provided at the bottom of the movable block 54, and a limiting groove 581 used in conjunction with the limiting protrusion 582 is provided at the installation position 53. Through such a structure, the position of the movable block 54 is limited.

[0044] In the embodiment of the utility model, the kettle body comprises a kettle body 11 and a kettle spout 12, a storage groove 13 for accommodating the kettle spout 12 is provided on one side of the kettle body 11, the kettle spout 12 is rotatably connected to the kettle body 11, and a sealing sleeve 14 is provided at the rotatable connection; when the kettle needs to be carried outside, the kettle spout 12 can be rotated and stored in the storage groove 13 to hide it and reduce the space occupied, preferably, the exhaust hole 15 is provided on a side close to the storage groove 13, that is, its opening is provided at the storage groove 13;

[0045] Furthermore, a rotating part 161 with an opening 1 is provided at the end of the spout 12, and a rotating part 2 162 with an opening 2 is provided at the kettle body 11. The rotating part 161 and the rotating part 2 162 are rotatably connected, and a sealing sleeve 14 is provided at the rotating part 2 162. The sealing sleeve 14 is tightly attached to a portion of the outer wall of the rotating part 161. When the spout 12 is in an unfolded state, the opening 1 corresponds to the opening 2. When the spout 12 is in a retracted state, the opening 1 and the opening 2 are misaligned. Other positions of the rotating part 161 correspond to the opening 2 and are sealed, and at the same time cooperate with the sealing sleeve 14 to prevent water leakage. Further, the sealing sleeve 14 is provided with a flange 17 adapted to the opening 2, and the outer periphery of the flange 17 abuts against the inner edge of the opening 2 to prevent water in the kettle from seeping out from the opening 2 to the rotating part 2 162.

[0046] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
