Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric kettle seats, in particular to a kettle heating component mounting structure and an electric kettle seat. Background Art
[0002] An electric kettle stand generally consists of a stand and a heating assembly (including a coupler). Many heating assemblies are equipped with a weight sensor, which can determine the amount of water in the kettle and its water level, preventing dry boiling due to water shortage and overflow when adding water. Currently, electric kettle stands on the market often have one end of the weight sensor or the mounting base that supports the weight sensor directly mounted on the bottom surface of the electric kettle stand top cover using screws. Although this mounting structure is simple and easy to assemble, it suffers from problems such as unstable installation, low load-bearing capacity, and unreliable load-bearing capacity. Therefore, the present application provides a reliable coupler mounting structure that can solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model proposes a kettle heating component installation structure that can support a larger weight and has higher structural strength.
[0004] In a first aspect, a kettle heating assembly mounting structure is provided, comprising a kettle seat top cover, a clamping member, a mounting seat, a weight sensor and a heating assembly, wherein:
[0005] The top cover of the kettle seat is provided with a mounting opening for exposing the heating component.
[0006] The clamping piece is arranged on the top surface of the pot seat top cover and is close to the installation opening.
[0007] The mounting seat is arranged on the bottom surface of the kettle seat top cover, close to one side of the mounting opening, forming a unilateral offset installation, and screws are passed through and locked to the kettle seat top cover, the clamping piece and the mounting seat, so that the top surface of the entire kettle seat top cover also supports the weight sensor and the heating component, thereby improving the installation firmness and reliability of the mounting seat.
[0008] One end of the weight sensor is mounted on the mounting seat, and the other end is a load-bearing end and extends close to the mounting opening.
[0009] The heating component is installed on the load-bearing end of the weight sensor and exposed from the installation port. While providing heating for the kettle, it can also weigh the water in the kettle.
[0010] The kettle heating assembly mounting structure provided by the present invention is provided with a clamping piece. During installation, the clamping piece and the mounting seat clamp the upper and lower surfaces of the kettle seat top cover together, so that the top surface of the kettle seat top cover also supports the weight sensor and the heating assembly, thereby improving the installation firmness and stability of the mounting seat, and it is not easy to fall off even after long-term use.
[0011] Preferably, the load-bearing end of the weight sensor is provided with a load-bearing ring, and extension arms are provided on both sides of one end of the mounting seat facing the load-bearing ring. The extension arms are arranged along the outer circumference of the load-bearing ring and are locked with the kettle seat top cover by screws, or are screwed through the kettle seat top cover and locked with the clamping member, so that the fixed support point of the mounting seat can be relatively close to the load-bearing end of the weight sensor, which can shorten the lever arm length of the weight sensor installed in a lever manner, and further reduce the distance that the weight sensor moves downward after bearing weight, thereby avoiding the bottom surface of the kettle or the bottom surface of the coupler seat contacting the kettle seat top cover and causing inaccurate weighing.
[0012] Preferably, an avoidance gap is provided at the position relative to the deformation part in the middle of the mounting seat and the weight sensor, which can avoid the contact between the mounting seat and the deformation part in the middle of the weight sensor to affect the weighing accuracy. At the same time, the weight sensor does not need to be equipped with additional gaskets to increase the height during installation, which not only reduces costs but also makes installation easier.
[0013] Preferably, the clamping member is annular and is arranged on the outer ring of the mounting opening, thereby providing a more reliable supporting force.
[0014] Preferably, in order to improve the strength of the pot seat top cover, the top surface of the pot seat top cover is provided with a panel, such as a glass panel, and the clamping member is arranged on the top of the panel.
[0015] Preferably, the screw passes through the opening on the mounting seat and the opening around the mounting opening, and is screwed into the screw hole at the bottom of the clamping member to avoid exposure of the screw and improve the appearance. At the same time, the screw is not easily loosened by contact.
[0016] Preferably, one end of the mounting seat away from the mounting opening is also locked to the bottom of the kettle seat top cover by screws, so that each position of the mounting seat can be reliably fixed.
[0017] Preferably, a surrounding water collecting tank is provided around the installation opening to collect water from the top cover of the kettle seat, thereby preventing water from wetting the heating component and its circuit directly through the installation opening.
[0018] Preferably, in order to actively drain the collected water and avoid water overflow or residual odor, a drainage channel is provided at the bottom of the water collection tank. The drainage outlet of the drainage channel extends downward and is staggered with the heating component and its circuit, so that the water can be drained to the bottom shell of the kettle seat and then discharged through the drainage holes provided in the bottom shell of the kettle seat.
[0019] Preferably, the heating assembly includes a coupler and a coupler base, wherein the coupler is mounted on the weight sensor via the coupler base. The coupler base is provided with a shielding ring for shielding the water collection tank. On the one hand, this prevents water from the kettle from directly falling into the installation opening, and on the other hand, it can also shield the installation opening and the water collection tank.
[0020] Preferably, in order to further prevent the circuit from getting wet, the bottom of the kettle seat top cover is provided with a fence surrounding the installation opening, and the drain outlet of the drainage channel is arranged on the periphery of the fence, thereby completely isolating the overflowed and discharged water from the coupler and its circuit.
[0021] In a second aspect, an electric kettle stand is provided, which adopts the kettle heating component mounting structure described in the first aspect.
[0022] From the above description of the present invention, it can be seen that the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] 1. The kettle heating assembly mounting structure provided by the present invention is provided with a clamping member. During installation, the clamping member and the mounting base clamp the upper and lower surfaces of the kettle seat cover together, so that the top surface of the kettle seat cover also supports the weight sensor and the heating assembly, thereby improving the installation firmness and stability of the mounting base, and preventing it from falling off even after long-term use;
[0024] 2. The mounting base is provided with an extension arm extending toward the outer periphery of the load-bearing ring, so that the fixed support point of the mounting base can be relatively close to the load-bearing end of the weight sensor. This can shorten the lever arm length of the weight sensor installed in a lever manner, thereby reducing the distance the weight sensor moves downward after bearing weight, thereby preventing the bottom surface of the kettle or the bottom surface of the coupler seat from contacting the kettle seat top cover, thereby preventing inaccurate weighing;
[0025] 3. An avoidance notch is provided at the position where the mounting base and the deformed part in the middle of the weight sensor are opposite to each other, which can prevent the mounting base from contacting the deformed part in the middle of the weight sensor and affecting the weighing accuracy. At the same time, the weight sensor does not need to be equipped with additional gaskets to increase its height during installation, which not only reduces costs but also makes installation easier.
[0026] 4. The clamping piece is annular and surrounds the installation opening, which can provide more reliable support force;
[0027] 5. A surrounding water collection tank is provided around the installation opening to collect water from the top cover of the kettle seat to prevent water from directly passing through the installation opening and wetting the heating component and its circuits;
[0028] 6. A drainage channel is provided at the bottom of the water collection tank. The drainage outlet of the drainage channel extends downward and is staggered with the heating component and its circuit, which can actively drain the collected water to avoid water overflow or residual odor;
[0029] 7. The bottom of the kettle seat top cover is provided with a fence surrounding the installation opening, and the drainage outlet of the drainage channel is arranged on the outer periphery of the fence, thereby completely isolating the overflowing and discharged water from the coupler and its circuit, further preventing the circuit from getting wet.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0039] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clear and understandable, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0040] See also Figures 1 to 6 A kettle heating assembly 5 installation structure includes a kettle seat top cover 1, a clamping member 2, a mounting seat 3, a weight sensor 4 and a heating assembly 5, wherein,
[0041] The kettle cover 1 is provided with a mounting opening 11 through which the heating assembly 5 is exposed. The clamping member 2 is positioned on the top surface of the kettle cover 1, adjacent to the mounting opening 11. The mounting base 3 is positioned on the bottom surface of the kettle cover 1, adjacent to the mounting opening 11. This provides a single-sided offset mounting arrangement. Compared to a double-sided mounting arrangement for the weight sensor 4, this design is not only cost-effective but also avoids weighing errors caused by individual variations in the weight sensor 4. The mounting base 3 is secured to the kettle cover 1 and the clamping member 2 via screws 6, thereby providing support for the weight sensor 4 and heating assembly 5 from the entire top surface of the kettle cover 1, enhancing the secure and reliable installation of the mounting base 3. The weight sensor 4 is mounted on the mounting base 3 at one end, with the other end being a load-bearing end that extends adjacent to the mounting opening 11. The heating assembly 5 is mounted on the load-bearing end of the weight sensor 4 and exposed through the mounting opening 11. This allows the kettle to be heated while also weighing the water within.
[0042] In this embodiment, a load-bearing ring 41 is provided at the load-bearing end of the weight sensor 4, and extension arms 31 are provided on both sides of one end of the mounting base 3 facing the load-bearing ring 41. The extension arms 31 are arranged along the outer circumference of the load-bearing ring 41 and are locked to the kettle seat top cover 1 by screws 6, or are locked to the clamping member 2 by screws 6 passing through the kettle seat top cover 1. This allows the fixed support point of the mounting base 3 to be relatively close to the load-bearing end of the weight sensor 4, shortening the lever arm length of the weight sensor 4 installed in a lever manner, thereby reducing the distance the weight sensor 4 moves downward after bearing weight, thereby preventing the bottom surface of the kettle or the bottom surface of the coupler seat 52 from contacting the kettle seat top cover 1, thereby preventing inaccurate weighing.
[0043] Based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment, an avoidance notch 32 is provided at a position relative to the deformation part in the middle of the mounting base 3 and the weight sensor 4, which can avoid the mounting base 3 and the deformation part in the middle of the weight sensor 4 from contacting each other to affect the weighing accuracy. At the same time, the weight sensor 4 does not need to be equipped with an additional gasket to increase the height during installation, which not only reduces costs but also makes installation easier.
[0044] In one embodiment, the clamping member 2 is annular and is disposed on the outer ring of the mounting opening 11, thereby providing more reliable support. In addition, to enhance the strength of the pot holder cover 1, a panel 12, such as a glass panel 12, is disposed on the top surface of the pot holder cover 1, and the clamping member 2 is disposed on top of the panel 12.
[0045] In another embodiment, the screw 6 passes through the openings in the mounting base 3 and the openings around the mounting opening 11 and is screwed into the screw hole at the bottom of the clamping member 2. This prevents the screw 6 from being exposed, improving the aesthetics and preventing the screw 6 from being easily contacted and loosened. Furthermore, the end of the mounting base 3 away from the mounting opening 11 is also secured to the bottom of the kettle holder cover 1 by a screw 6, ensuring that the mounting base 3 is securely fixed at all positions.
[0046] Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment, a surrounding water collecting tank 13 is provided around the installation opening 11 to collect water from the kettle seat top cover 1 and prevent water from directly wetting the heating component 5 and its circuit through the installation opening 11.
[0047] In another embodiment, in order to actively drain the collected water and prevent it from overflowing or leaving residual odor, a drainage channel 14 is provided at the bottom of the water collection tank 13. The drainage port of the drainage channel 14 extends downward and is staggered with the heating component 5 and its circuit, so that the water can be drained to the bottom shell of the kettle seat and then discharged through the drainage holes provided in the bottom shell of the kettle seat. In addition, the heating component 5 includes a coupler 51 and a coupler seat 52. The coupler 51 is installed on the weight sensor 4 through the coupler seat 52. The coupler seat 52 is provided with a shielding ring that blocks the water collection tank 13. On the one hand, it prevents the water on the kettle from falling directly into the installation port 11. On the other hand, it can also shield the installation port 11 and the water collection tank 13.
[0048] On the basis of the above embodiment, in order to further prevent the circuit from getting wet, the bottom of the kettle seat top cover 1 is provided with a barrier 15 surrounding the installation opening 11, and the drainage outlet of the drainage channel 14 is arranged on the periphery of the barrier 15, thereby completely isolating the overflowed and discharged water from the coupler 51 and its circuit.
[0049] In other embodiments, an electric kettle stand is provided, which adopts the above-mentioned kettle heating component 5 installation structure.
[0050] The installation structure of the kettle heating component 5 provided by the present invention is provided with a clamping member 2. During installation, the clamping member 2 and the mounting seat 3 are used to clamp the upper and lower surfaces of the kettle seat top cover 1, so that the top surface of the kettle seat top cover 1 also supports the weight sensor 4 and the heating component 5, thereby improving the installation firmness and stability of the mounting seat 3, and it is not easy to fall off even after long-term use.
[0051] The above is an exemplary description of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the concept and technical solution of the present invention are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
