Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hand-poured coffee pots and teapots, in particular to a water control valve on a kettle. Background Art

[0002] When making hand-poured coffee and brewing loose-leaf tea, since there are certain requirements for the size of the water flow, it is crucial to have a kettle with adjustable water flow size.

[0003] For existing kettles, such as a teapot disclosed in the utility model patent with the application number 201620539259.8, its main structure includes a teapot body and a fixed base. On both sides of the teapot body, there are respectively a teapot spout and a teapot handle. Above the teapot body, there are a teapot lid and a teapot handle. Below the teapot body, there is a teapot base. An automatic temperature control system is provided on the teapot base. The automatic temperature control system includes a temperature controller, a heater, and a switch. Above the automatic temperature control system, there is a metal heat conduction plate. On both sides of the edge of the teapot base, there are respectively clamping blocks. In the fixed base, there are clamping grooves that are mutually engaged with the clamping blocks. Below the fixed base, there is a support rod, and at the end of the support rod, there is a vacuum suction cup; during use, the automatic temperature control system can ensure that the tea water in the teapot is always in a relatively high temperature state. When the temperature controller detects that the temperature of the tea water in the teapot body is relatively low, the temperature controller controls the heater to continue heating. When the temperature rises to a certain value again, the temperature controller controls the heater to stop heating, and so on in a cycle.

[0004] However, for the existing hand-poured coffee pots and teapots on the market, when making hand-poured coffee and brewing loose-leaf tea, the water flow size of the spout cannot be adjusted. It relies on holding the kettle body to adjust the tilting angle to control the water flow size, and it is not easy for novices to control the water flow size during brewing. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a water control valve on a kettle that can control the water outlet flow of the spout, facilitating novices to adjust the water flow size during brewing.

[0006] The water control valve on the kettle of the utility model includes a kettle; it also includes a fixing mechanism, a control mechanism, an adjusting mechanism, and a blocking mechanism. The fixing mechanism is installed on the kettle to prevent water from entering the device. The control mechanism is installed on the fixing mechanism and drives the blocking mechanism to move. The adjusting mechanism is installed on the control mechanism and drives the control mechanism to rotate. The blocking mechanism is installed on the fixing mechanism and controls the water outlet flow; when pouring water is needed, the user rotates the adjusting mechanism, the adjusting mechanism drives the control mechanism to rotate, and the control mechanism drives the blocking mechanism to move to conveniently adjust the blocking area of the blocking mechanism, thereby adjusting the water outlet flow. By setting the fixing mechanism, the influence of water flow on the control mechanism is avoided, and the service life of the device is prolonged.

[0007] Preferably, the kettle includes a kettle body, a kettle tube, and a kettle tube sealing silicone. The kettle body is placed on a tabletop. A cavity is provided inside the kettle body. The kettle tube is installed on the kettle body and communicates with the inside of the cavity of the kettle body. The kettle tube sealing silicone is installed at the connection between the kettle body and the kettle tube, and the kettle tube sealing silicone is fixed on the kettle tube through a hollow cylinder at the front section. A chute and a through hole are provided on the kettle tube sealing silicone. When a user adds hot water into the cavity of the kettle body, when pouring water is needed, the user picks up the kettle body and tilts it. The hot water enters the kettle tube through the through hole of the kettle tube sealing silicone and then is discharged through the kettle tube.

[0008] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes a fixing base, a fixing base rear cover, screws, and two groups of decorative covers. The fixing base is installed inside the cavity of the kettle body. The fixing base rear cover is installed on the fixing base. Two groups of positioning holes are provided on the fixing base rear cover. Two groups of screws are respectively installed in the two groups of positioning holes of the fixing base rear cover. The decorative covers are installed inside the cavity of the kettle body. The staff tightens the two groups of screws with a screwdriver to fixedly connect the fixing base rear cover and the fixing base. By providing the fixing base, the fixing base rear cover, and the decorative covers, the entry of water vapor into the control mechanism is reduced, the influence of water vapor on the device is reduced, and the service life of the device is prolonged.

[0009] Preferably, the control mechanism includes an adjusting shaft, a driving gear, a gasket, and a first sealing ring. The adjusting shaft is rotatably installed on the fixing base. A thread is provided at the top of the adjusting shaft. The driving gear is installed on the adjusting shaft. The gasket is installed on the adjusting shaft. The first sealing ring is installed on the adjusting shaft. The gasket is located between the driving gear and the first sealing ring. The adjusting mechanism drives the adjusting shaft to rotate. The adjusting shaft drives the driving gear to rotate. The driving gear drives the blocking mechanism to rotate. The gasket is used to press the first sealing ring. By providing the gasket and the first sealing ring, the waterproof sealing effect of the device is enhanced.

[0010] Preferably, the adjusting mechanism includes a sealing gasket, a sealing seat fixing nut, a second sealing ring, a water flow adjusting knob, and a water flow adjusting knob metal shell. The sealing seat fixing nut is sleeved on the adjusting shaft. The sealing seat fixing nut is installed on the adjusting shaft and threadedly connected to the thread of the adjusting shaft. The second sealing ring is installed on the adjusting shaft. The water flow adjusting knob is sleeved on the sealing seat fixing nut. The water flow adjusting knob metal shell is sleeved outside the water flow adjusting knob. When a user turns the water flow adjusting knob metal shell, the water flow adjusting knob metal shell drives the second sealing ring and the sealing seat fixing nut to rotate. The sealing seat fixing nut drives the adjusting shaft to rotate. By providing the sealing gasket and the second sealing ring, the waterproof sealing effect of the device is enhanced.

[0011] Preferably, the plugging mechanism includes a driven gear shaft, a driven gear, and a water flow regulating piece. The driven gear shaft is rotatably installed on the fixed seat. The driven gear is installed on the driven gear shaft and meshes with the driving gear for transmission. The water flow regulating piece is slidably installed in the chute of the kettle tube sealing silica gel, and a tooth groove is formed at the top of the water flow regulating piece to mesh with the driven gear. The driving gear drives the driven gear and the driven gear shaft to rotate, and the driven gear drives the driven gear shaft to move up and down, thereby adjusting the plugging area of the through hole of the kettle tube sealing silica gel by the water flow regulating piece, so as to control the water outlet flow rate. By adjusting the tooth number ratio of the driven gear and the driving gear, the transmission ratio is changed, so that the water outlet flow rate can be adjusted from the minimum to the maximum by rotating the metal shell of the water flow regulating knob for one circle.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: when pouring water is needed, the user rotates the adjusting mechanism, the adjusting mechanism drives the control mechanism to rotate, and the control mechanism drives the plugging mechanism to move, which is convenient to adjust the plugging area of the plugging mechanism, thereby adjusting the water outlet flow rate. By setting the fixing mechanism, the influence of water flow on the control mechanism is avoided, and the service life of the device is prolonged. Brief Description of the Drawings
