Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a kettle, and more particularly to a folding kettle. Background Technology
[0002] A kettle is a common tool for boiling water, and there are many different types of kettles depending on the needs. Household kettles are usually placed on an induction cooker or gas stove to boil water, or they can be heated directly with electricity. However, the size of most household kettles is fixed, making them inconvenient to carry when going outdoors for sports or other activities.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, the applicant previously invented a folding kettle, applied for and received a utility model patent (application number: 202123279241.9). However, in practice, the spout structure is located at the top, and the water outlet is located on the lid to facilitate pouring. Compared to traditional kettle spout structures, the water flow guidance is still insufficient, making it easy to spill water during pouring. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model aims to provide a folding kettle that, in addition to achieving folding, incorporates a spout structure for precise water pouring. Furthermore, the spout is detachable and can be available in various shapes for customers to choose from.
[0005] The present invention relates to a folding kettle, comprising a silicone kettle body, a metal kettle bottom, a kettle lid, and a handle. The metal kettle bottom is integrally formed with the silicone kettle body as an insert. The handle is connected to the left and right sides of the top of the silicone kettle body. An installation hole is provided on the upper front side of the silicone kettle body. A recessed installation step is provided inside the installation hole. A silicone spout is installed in the installation hole. The outer bottom surface of the silicone spout has an outwardly extending first annular portion and a second annular portion. An annular positioning groove is formed between the first annular portion and the second annular portion. The silicone spout passes through the installation hole from the inside of the silicone kettle body. The second annular portion is positioned against the installation step. After the first annular portion deforms and passes through the installation hole, it is clamped to the side wall of the installation hole by the annular positioning groove to achieve an interference fit seal.
[0006] Preferably, the second annular portion is located at the bottom of the spout, the first annular portion is located in front of the second annular portion, and the outer diameter of the second annular portion is larger than the outer diameter of the first annular portion.
[0007] Preferably, the silicone kettle body includes a top connecting section and a middle and lower folding section. The handle is connected to the connecting section. The folding section gradually increases in size from top to bottom. The folding section includes a first thin-walled folding section at the top and a second thin-walled folding section at the bottom. When folding, the entire silicone kettle body is folded into three sections with the first thin-walled folding section and the second thin-walled folding section as the folding points, so that the upper area of the silicone kettle body falls into the lower area.
[0008] Preferably, the upper surface of the lid is provided with a gripper.
[0009] Preferably, the front and rear ends of the handle extend inward from the bottom, and the connecting section is provided with four mounting holes. The four hinge posts of the two handles are respectively inserted into the four mounting holes to realize the hinge of the handle.
[0010] Preferably, the metal base of the kettle is made of stainless steel, and the lid is made of PCTG plastic.
[0011] This invention adds a spout structure to the folding mechanism, enabling precise water pouring. The spout is also detachable, allowing for the design of different spout shapes to meet customer needs. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model provides a folding kettle, including a silicone kettle body 1, a metal kettle bottom 2, a kettle lid 3, and a handle 4. The metal kettle bottom 2 is integrally formed with the silicone kettle body 1 as an insert. The handle 4 is connected to the left and right sides of the top of the silicone kettle body 1. The upper front part of the silicone kettle body 1 is provided with a mounting hole 11. The inner side of the mounting hole 11 is provided with a recessed mounting step. A silicone spout 5 is installed in the mounting hole 11. The outer side of the bottom of the silicone spout 5 is provided with an outwardly extending first annular portion 51 and a second annular portion 52. An annular positioning groove 53 is formed between the first annular portion 51 and the second annular portion 52. The silicone spout 5 passes through the mounting hole 11 from the inside of the silicone kettle body 1. The second annular portion 52 is positioned against the mounting step. After the first annular portion 51 deforms and passes through the mounting hole 11, it is locked by the annular positioning groove 53 to achieve an interference fit and seal.
[0021] In the above scheme, the second annular portion 52 is located at the bottom of the spout 5, the first annular portion 51 is located in front of the second annular portion 52, and the outer diameter of the second annular portion 52 is larger than the outer diameter of the first annular portion 51.
[0022] Specifically, the silicone kettle body 1 includes a top connecting section 12 and a middle and lower folding section 13. The handle 4 is connected to the connecting section 12. The size of the folding section 13 gradually increases from top to bottom. The folding section 13 includes a first thin-walled folding section 131 located at the top and a second thin-walled folding section 132 located at the bottom. When folding, the entire silicone kettle body 1 is folded into three sections with the first thin-walled folding section 131 and the second thin-walled folding section 132 as the folding points, so that the upper area of the silicone kettle body 1 falls into the lower area.
[0023] In addition, a gripper 6 is provided on the upper surface of the lid 3.
[0024] In addition, hinge posts extend inward from the bottom of the front and rear ends of the handle 4, and four mounting holes are provided on the connecting section 12. The four hinge posts of the two handles 4 are respectively inserted into the four mounting holes to realize the hinge of the handle 4.
[0025] Furthermore, the metal base 2 is made of stainless steel, and the lid 3 is made of PCTG plastic.
[0026] When folding, this invention allows the silicone kettle body 1 to be folded into three sections by simply pressing down, using the first thin-wall fold line 131 and the second thin-wall fold line 132 as folding points, so that the upper part of the silicone kettle body 1 falls into the lower part. To open, hold the metal kettle base 2 with one hand and pull the handle 4 upwards with the other to unfold the entire silicone kettle body 1. Fill it with water, put on the lid 3, and boil water. The boiled water will then pour out from the silicone spout 5.
[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, or alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical principles of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
