Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of drinking water equipment, and particularly relates to a kettle. Background Art

[0002] Currently, water containers such as kettles on the market typically use floats as liquid level detection devices. These floats float with the water level inside the kettle to monitor the water level, preventing it from being too high or too low, which could affect heating. However, the floats are prone to getting stuck or blocked by foreign objects, making it impossible for the float to accurately detect the water level inside the kettle. This prevents users from accurately and timely determining the water level, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a kettle to solve at least one of the above problems.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical issues, the present invention employs the following technical solution: a kettle comprising a kettle body and a water level detection assembly, the water level detection assembly comprising a capacitive detection plate and a mounting frame abutting against the outer wall of the kettle body. The mounting frame surrounds the capacitive detection plate, thereby defining a first glue filling cavity with an opening toward the kettle body and a second glue filling cavity with an opening away from the kettle body on either side of the capacitive detection plate. A mounting gap is defined between the two sides of the capacitive detection plate and the inner wall of the mounting frame, providing communication between the first and second glue filling cavities. This technical solution has the following technical effects:

[0005] The utility model arranges a water level detection component with a capacitance detection plate on the outside of the kettle body. The capacitance detection plate can measure the height of the liquid level in the kettle by measuring the change in capacitance, so as to realize real-time monitoring of the water level in the kettle without contacting the liquid. The measurement accuracy is high and the failure rate is low. The user can know the water level in the kettle in a timely and accurate manner, and the user experience is good. By setting the water level detection component to a structure in which the capacitor detection plate and the mounting frame are embedded, the capacitor detection plate can divide the internal area of ​​the mounting frame into a first glue filling cavity and a second glue filling cavity located on both sides of the capacitor detection plate. When installing the water level detection component and the kettle body, the mounting frame can be first installed on the outer wall of the kettle body so that the mounting frame abuts against the outer wall of the kettle body, and then glue is poured into the area of ​​the mounting frame belonging to the first glue filling cavity, and then the capacitor detection board is embedded in the mounting frame. Finally, glue is poured into the area of ​​the mounting frame belonging to the second glue filling cavity. After the glue solidifies, the capacitor detection board is encapsulated in the glue to prevent external water vapor impurities from affecting the detection accuracy of the capacitor detection board, thereby ensuring the detection accuracy of the capacitor detection board. Because an installation gap is reserved between the two sides of the capacitor detection board and the inner wall of the mounting frame, the first glue filling cavity can be filled with glue during glue pouring. When installing the capacitor detection board, excess glue in the first glue filling cavity can flow into the second glue filling cavity through the installation gap, thereby avoiding a large number of bubbles affecting the detection results due to insufficient glue in the first glue filling cavity, thereby further improving the detection accuracy of the capacitor detection board.

[0006] In the kettle described above, at least one guide rib is provided on each of the two inner sidewalls of the mounting frame. The two sides of the capacitance detection plate abut against the guide ribs, thereby forming an installation gap between the capacitance detection plate and the inner sidewall of the mounting frame. When the capacitance detection plate is mounted on the mounting frame, the guide ribs abut against the capacitance detection plate to position the two sides of the capacitance detection plate. This naturally forms an installation gap between the two sides of the capacitance detection plate and the inner sidewall of the mounting frame, thereby reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency.

[0007] In the aforementioned kettle, a stopper protrusion extending into the first glue-filling cavity is provided on one end of the guide rib facing the kettle body, and the side of the capacitance detection plate facing the kettle body abuts against the stopper protrusion. When installing the capacitance detection plate, the side of the capacitance detection plate facing the kettle body abuts against the guide rib, indicating that the capacitance detection plate is installed and positioned, reducing assembly difficulty and ensuring that the capacitance detection plate is quickly inserted into the set position of the mounting frame. This forms a first glue-filling cavity of a fixed depth between the capacitance detection plate and the kettle body, ensuring that the glue completely encapsulates the capacitance detection plate, thereby ensuring the detection accuracy of the capacitance detection plate.

[0008] In the above-mentioned kettle, the two inner side walls of the mounting frame are further provided with limiting springs located in the second glue-filling cavity. The capacitor detection plate pushes the limiting springs aside to be embedded in the mounting frame. After the capacitor detection plate is installed in place, the limiting springs reset and abut against the capacitor detection plate to press the capacitor detection plate against the limiting protrusion. During the process of embedding the capacitor detection plate into the mounting frame, the capacitor detection plate first pushes the limiting springs aside, and the limiting springs undergo elastic deformation to form a avoidance for the capacitor detection plate. When the capacitor detection plate is installed in place, the limiting springs reset under the action of elastic force and abut against the side of the capacitor detection plate away from the guide rib to press the capacitor detection plate against the limiting protrusion, thereby achieving the limiting of the capacitor detection plate. The limiting springs can press capacitor detection plates of various thicknesses against the limiting protrusion, while having a good limiting effect, reducing the difficulty of installing and disassembling the capacitor detection plate, improving assembly efficiency, and facilitating maintenance and replacement.

[0009] In the above-mentioned kettle, a crimping protrusion located within the second glue-filling cavity is provided on the inner wall of the top of the mounting frame. The crimping protrusion abuts against the side of the capacitor detection plate facing away from the kettle body to prevent the top of the capacitor detection plate from horizontally escaping from the mounting frame. A guide arc is provided on the crimping protrusion to guide the capacitor detection plate during installation with the mounting frame. During the process of embedding the capacitor detection plate into the mounting frame, the upper end of the capacitor detection plate can be first inserted into the gap between the crimping protrusion and the kettle body along the guide arc, and then the lower end of the capacitor detection plate can be rotated with the upper end of the capacitor detection plate as the central axis until the capacitor detection plate is installed in place. At this time, the crimping protrusion abuts against the side of the capacitor detection plate facing away from the kettle body to prevent the top of the capacitor detection plate from horizontally escaping from the mounting frame. The guide arc can guide the assembly of the top of the capacitor detection plate with the mounting frame during installation of the capacitor detection plate, making installation of the capacitor detection plate smoother.

[0010] In the kettle described above, the mounting frame includes a frame body in which the capacitance detection board is embedded, and a peripheral edge disposed around the outer periphery of the frame body. The peripheral edge is disposed on the side of the frame body facing the kettle body to abut against the outer wall of the kettle body. The peripheral edge increases the contact area between the mounting frame and the kettle body, thereby minimizing the risk of glue overflowing from between the mounting frame and the kettle body during glue injection.

[0011] In the aforementioned kettle, the side of the mounting frame facing the kettle body is an arcuate surface, which surrounds the first glue-pouring cavity and is bonded to the outer wall of the kettle body. The arcuate surface surrounds the first glue-pouring cavity to ensure that the mounting frame fits tightly against the outer wall of the kettle body during installation. The bonding between the mounting frame and the outer wall of the kettle body limits the mounting frame's position and enhances the seal between the mounting frame and the kettle body, facilitating subsequent glue-pouring operations.

[0012] The above-mentioned kettle further includes a limit frame detachably connected to the kettle body. The water level detection assembly is installed and positioned on the kettle body by being embedded in the limit frame. The limit frame is removed from the kettle body after the water level detection assembly and the kettle body are assembled. When the water level detection assembly needs to be installed on the kettle body, the limit frame can be first installed on the outer wall of the kettle body, and then the water level detection assembly can be embedded in the area enclosed by the limit frame. The water level detection assembly is abutted against the inner wall of the limit frame to achieve its installation and positioning on the outer wall of the kettle body. After the water level detection assembly and the kettle body are assembled, the limit frame can be removed from the kettle body, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the water level detection assembly and improving assembly efficiency.

[0013] In the aforementioned kettle, the kettle further includes a base mounted on the bottom of the kettle body, and the upper and lower ends of the retaining frame facing the kettle body are respectively plugged into the kettle body and the base. The plug-in protrusions are plugged into the plug-in holes to achieve a detachable connection between the retaining frame and the kettle body, resulting in a simple structure and easy installation and removal.

[0014] In the aforementioned kettle, the kettle further includes a handle mounted on the outer wall of the kettle body, and the water level detection assembly is disposed between the kettle body and the handle. The handle and the outer wall of the kettle body together clamp the water level detection assembly. The water level detection assembly is disposed between the handle and the kettle body, so that most of the structure of the water level detection assembly is obscured by the kettle body and the handle, thereby enhancing the aesthetics of the kettle.

[0038] Example 1:

[0039] A kettle, such as Figures 1 to 8As shown, it includes a kettle body 110 and a water level detection component. The water level detection component is arranged on the outer wall of the kettle body 110 to detect the water level in the kettle body 110. The water level detection component includes a capacitor detection plate 200 and a mounting frame 300. The capacitor detection plate 200 is embedded in the mounting frame 300 so that the mounting frame 300 surrounds the capacitor detection plate 200. The end surface of the mounting frame 300 surrounding the capacitor detection plate 200 abuts against the outer wall of the kettle body 110 so that the capacitor detection plate 200 extends vertically along the outer wall of the kettle body 110. The two end surfaces of the mounting frame 300 protrude from the two sides of the capacitor detection plate 200 to enclose a first glue filling cavity 510 and a second glue filling cavity 520. The detection board 200 is located between the first glue filling cavity 510 and the second glue filling cavity 520. The first glue filling cavity 510 is located on the side of the capacitance detection board 200 facing the kettle body 110, with its opening facing the kettle body 110. The second glue filling cavity 520 is located on the side of the capacitance detection board 200 facing away from the kettle body 110, with its opening facing away from the kettle body 110. A mounting gap 530 is defined between the two sides of the capacitance detection board 200 and the inner sidewall of the mounting frame 300, allowing the first glue filling cavity 510 and the second glue filling cavity 520 to communicate through the mounting gap 530. The capacitance detection board 200 measures the level of the liquid in the kettle body 110 by measuring changes in capacitance. When the liquid level rises, the total dielectric constant between the two electrodes of the capacitance detection board 200 increases, thereby increasing the capacitance. Conversely, when the liquid level drops, the total dielectric constant between the two electrodes of the capacitance detection board 200 decreases, thereby decreasing the capacitance.

[0040] The utility model sets a water level detection component with a capacitance detection plate 200 on the outside of the kettle body 110. The capacitance detection plate 200 can measure the height of the liquid level in the kettle body 110 by measuring the change in capacitance, so as to realize real-time monitoring of the water level in the kettle without contacting the liquid. The measurement accuracy is high and the failure rate is low. The user can know the water level in the kettle in a timely and accurate manner, and the user experience is good. By setting the water level detection component to a structure in which the capacitor detection plate 200 and the installation frame 300 are embedded, the capacitor detection plate 200 can divide the internal area of ​​the installation frame 300 into a first glue pouring cavity 510 and a second glue pouring cavity 520 located on both sides of the capacitor detection plate 200. When installing the water level detection component and the kettle body 110, the installation frame 300 can be first installed on the outer wall of the kettle body 110 so that the installation frame 300 abuts against the outer wall of the kettle body 110, and then glue is poured into the area of ​​the installation frame 300 belonging to the first glue pouring cavity 510, and then the capacitor detection board 200 is embedded in the installation frame 300, and finally, glue is poured into the area of ​​the installation frame 300 belonging to the second glue pouring cavity 520, and the glue is solidified. After curing, the capacitance detection board 200 is encapsulated in a colloid to prevent external water vapor impurities from affecting the detection accuracy of the capacitance detection board 200, thereby ensuring the detection accuracy of the capacitance detection board 200. Because an installation gap 530 is reserved between the two sides of the capacitance detection board 200 and the inner side wall of the installation frame 300, the first glue potting cavity 510 can be filled with glue during glue pouring. When the capacitance detection board 200 is installed, the excess glue in the first glue potting cavity 510 can flow into the second glue potting cavity 520 on the other side of the capacitance detection board 200 through the installation gap 530, thereby avoiding a large number of bubbles that affect the detection results due to insufficient glue in the first glue potting cavity 510, thereby further improving the detection accuracy of the capacitance detection board 200.

[0041] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, one or more guide ribs 330 are provided on each of two opposing inner sidewalls of the mounting frame 300. The guide ribs 330 protrude from the inner sidewalls of the mounting frame 300. When the capacitance detection board 200 is embedded in the mounting frame 300, the two sides of the capacitance detection board 200 abut against the guide ribs 330, thereby forming an installation gap 530 between the capacitance detection board 200 and the inner sidewalls of the mounting frame 300. When the capacitance detection board 200 is installed on the mounting frame 300, the guide ribs 330 abut against the capacitance detection board 200 to position the two sides of the capacitance detection board 200. This naturally forms an installation gap 530 between the two sides of the capacitance detection board 200 and the inner sidewalls of the mounting frame 300, thereby reducing assembly difficulty and improving assembly efficiency.

[0042] like Figure 7As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting protrusion 340 is provided on the guide rib 330, and the limiting protrusion 340 is located at one end of the guide rib 330 close to the kettle body 110. The limiting protrusion 340 extends horizontally from the guide rib 330 to the center position of the first glue filling cavity 510. When installing the capacitance detection plate 200, the side of the capacitance detection plate 200 facing the kettle body 110 abuts against the guide rib 330, which means that the capacitance detection plate 200 has completed installation and positioning, reducing the difficulty of assembly, ensuring that the capacitance detection plate 200 is quickly embedded in the set position of the installation frame 300, so as to form a first glue filling cavity 510 with a fixed depth between the capacitance detection plate 200 and the kettle body 110, ensuring that the colloid completely wraps the capacitance detection plate 200, and thus ensuring the detection accuracy of the capacitance detection plate 200.

[0043] In order to prevent the capacitance detection board 200 abutting against the guide rib 330 from being detached from the guide rib 330 during glue pouring, in this embodiment, limiting spring pieces 350 are further provided on the two inner side walls of the installation frame 300. The limiting spring pieces 350 are located in the second glue pouring cavity 520. When the capacitance detection board 200 is embedded in the installation frame 300, the capacitance detection board 200 first pushes away the limiting spring pieces 350, and the limiting spring pieces 350 undergo elastic deformation to avoid the capacitance detection board 200. Figure 6 As shown, when the capacitance detection plate 200 is installed in place, the limiting spring piece 350 is reset under the action of elastic force and abuts against the side of the capacitance detection plate 200 away from the guide rib 330 to press the capacitance detection plate 200 against the limiting protrusion 340, thereby limiting the capacitance detection plate 200. The limiting spring piece 350 can press capacitance detection plates 200 of various thicknesses against the limiting protrusion 340, has a wide range of applications, and has a good limiting effect. At the same time, it reduces the difficulty of installation and disassembly of the capacitance detection plate 200, improves assembly efficiency, and facilitates maintenance and replacement.

[0044] In this embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, a crimping protrusion 360 is provided on the inner wall of the top of the mounting frame 300, and the crimping protrusion 360 is located in the second glue potting cavity 520. A guide arc surface 361 is provided on the crimping protrusion 360. In the process of embedding the capacitance detection board 200 into the mounting frame 300, the upper end of the capacitance detection board 200 can be inserted into the gap between the crimping protrusion 360 and the kettle body 110 along the guide arc surface 361, and then the lower end of the capacitance detection board 200 is rotated with the upper end of the capacitance detection board 200 as the center axis until the capacitance detection board 200 is installed in place. At this time, the crimping protrusion 360 is abutted against the side of the capacitance detection board 200 facing away from the kettle body 110 to prevent the top of the capacitance detection board 200 from horizontally escaping from the mounting frame 300. The guide arc surface 361 can guide the assembly of the top of the capacitance detection board 200 and the mounting frame 300 during the installation process of the capacitance detection board 200, so that the installation of the capacitance detection board 200 is smoother.

[0045] The mounting frame 300 in this embodiment includes a frame body 310 and a surrounding edge 320. The capacitance detection board 200 is embedded in the frame body 310. The surrounding edge 320 surrounds the outer peripheral side of the frame body 310. The surrounding edge 320 is provided on the side of the frame body 310 facing the kettle body 110. The end face of the surrounding edge 320 is flush with the end face of the frame body 310, so that the mounting frame 300 installed on the kettle body 110 has its surrounding edge 320 and the frame body 310 simultaneously abutting against the outer side wall of the kettle body 110. The surrounding edge 320 can increase the contact area between the mounting frame 300 and the kettle body 110 to minimize the glue from overflowing from between the mounting frame 300 and the kettle body 110 during glue pouring. Preferably, the side of the mounting frame 300 facing the kettle body 110 is a curved surface 311, and the curved surface 311 is arranged around the first glue pouring cavity 510 to ensure that the mounting frame 300 can fit tightly with the outer wall of the kettle body 110 during installation. The mounting frame 300 and the outer wall of the kettle body 110 can be bonded together by a sticky glue such as double-sided tape 600 to limit the mounting frame 300 and enhance the sealing between the mounting frame 300 and the kettle body 110, thereby facilitating subsequent glue pouring operations.

[0046] The kettle in this embodiment also includes a handle, which is installed on the outer wall of the kettle body 110. The water level detection component in this embodiment can be connected to the handle at different positions of the kettle body 110, or can be installed at the same position of the kettle body 110. Preferably, the water level detection component is arranged between the kettle body 110 and the handle, and the handle is fixed on the kettle body 110 to clamp the water level detection component together with the outer wall of the kettle body 110. The water level detection component is arranged between the handle and the kettle body 110, so that most of the structure of the water level detection component is blocked by the kettle body 110 and the handle, thereby making the kettle more beautiful.

[0047] The kettle in this embodiment may further include a limit frame 400, which is detachably connected to the kettle body 110. When the water level detection assembly needs to be installed on the kettle body 110, the limit frame 400 can be first installed on the outer wall of the kettle body 110, and then the water level detection assembly can be embedded in the area surrounded by the limit frame 400. The water level detection assembly is abutted against the inner wall of the limit frame 400 to achieve its installation positioning on the outer wall of the kettle body 110. After the water level detection assembly and the kettle body 110 are assembled, the limit frame 400 can be removed from the kettle body 110, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the water level detection assembly and improving assembly efficiency.

[0048] like Figure 1As shown, a base 120 is provided at the bottom of the kettle body 110, and a plug-in hole 111 is provided on both the kettle body 110 and the base 120. Plug-in protrusions 410 are respectively provided at the upper and lower ends of the limit frame 400 facing the kettle body 110. The plug-in protrusions 410 are plugged into the plug-in hole 111 to achieve a detachable connection between the limit frame 400 and the kettle body 110. The structure is simple and easy to install and disassemble. At the same time, the plug-in hole 111 can also reserve an installation position for the handle. Of course, it can be understood that the plug-in hole 111 here can be a through hole or a blind hole with one end closed.

[0049] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. All technical solutions based on the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, certain improvements and modifications that do not depart from the principles of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
