Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric kettle technology, and in particular to an anti-tipping electric kettle. Background Technology

[0002] Electric kettles, as common small household appliances, are widely used in homes and offices due to their convenient heating function. However, traditional electric kettles have a significant drawback: they are prone to tipping over when the kettle is not placed steadily or is subjected to external impact. Tipping over not only causes hot water to spill, posing a risk of scalding, but may also damage furniture or floors.

[0003] Although some anti-tipping devices already exist on the market, such as by increasing the bottom support area or using a complex mechanical locking structure, these solutions generally have the following problems: (1) Mechanical locking devices require additional moving parts, which not only increases production costs but also increases the failure rate; (2) Some designs can only work when tilted slightly and cannot effectively prevent water from flowing out when tilted at a large angle; (3) Complex operating procedures or bulky structures reduce the portability and ease of use of the product.

[0004] For example, some electric kettles improve stability by increasing the base area, but this method takes up a lot of space and cannot solve the problem of tipping over under external impact; other products use a spring-type balance structure, but the function is prone to failure due to spring fatigue after long-term use. In addition, existing improvements to anti-tipping technology often do not fully consider the optimization of the kettle's center of gravity distribution, making it difficult to maintain a stable anti-tipping effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention provides a simple, low-cost, and highly reliable anti-tipping solution that can automatically adjust the center of gravity based on physical principles when an electric kettle tipps over, preventing liquid from spilling out.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: an anti-tipping electric kettle, including a kettle body, a kettle lid at the top of the kettle body and handles rotatably connected to both sides of the top of the kettle body, a water spout connected to one side of the kettle body, and a kettle body bottom cover at the bottom of the kettle body with a counterweight installed inside the kettle body bottom cover to prevent tipping.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the lower surface of the kettle body bottom cover is provided with an annular conductive plug electrically connected to the power base, and the kettle body bottom cover is provided with an electric heating element electrically connected to the annular conductive plug.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, the bottom cover of the kettle body is provided with two mounting posts, and the counterweight is mounted on the mounting posts and located at the end away from the spout.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting a counterweight block inside the bottom cover of the kettle body at the end away from the spout, the center of gravity distribution of the kettle body is optimized. When the kettle body tilts or falls over due to external force, the physical action of the counterweight block causes the center of gravity to shift backward, ensuring that the spout is always tilted upward, thereby effectively blocking the water flow path and significantly reducing the risk of scalding caused by tipping over and damage caused by liquid spillage.

[0014] The directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, front, back, top, and bottom mentioned or possibly mentioned in this specification are defined relative to their structure and are relative concepts. Therefore, they may vary depending on their location and usage; thus, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.

[0015] The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in this specification are intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It should also be understood that the term “and / or” as used herein refers to and includes one or more of the associated listed items, any or all possible combinations thereof.

[0016] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0017] This utility model provides the following: Figures 1-3 The electric kettle shown includes a kettle body 2, a kettle lid 3 at the top of the kettle body 2 and handles 4 rotatably connected to both sides of the top of the kettle body 2, a water spout 5 connected to one side of the kettle body 2, and a kettle bottom cover 6 at the bottom of the kettle body 2, with a counterweight 1 installed inside the kettle bottom cover 6 to prevent tipping.

[0018] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the lower surface of the kettle body bottom cover 6 of this utility model is provided with an annular conductive plug 601 electrically connected to the power base, and the kettle body bottom cover 6 is provided with an electric heating element 602 electrically connected to the annular conductive plug 601, which makes the connection between the kettle body 2 and the power base more stable. Even when the kettle is tilted or shaken slightly, the stability of power transmission can be guaranteed, avoiding the problem of heating interruption caused by poor contact.

[0019] like Figure 2 As shown, the bottom cover 6 of this utility model is provided with two mounting posts. The counterweight 1 is installed on the mounting posts and located at the end away from the spout 5. When the electric kettle tilts or falls over due to external force, the gravity of the counterweight 1 causes the center of gravity of the bottom cover 6 and the entire kettle body 2 to shift backward. Since the counterweight 1 is located at the end away from the spout 5, the spout 5 always remains tilted upward during the tilting process, effectively blocking the water flow path and preventing hot water from spilling out and causing scalding or damage to surrounding items.

[0020] Working principle: In the specific implementation of this utility model, when the electric kettle is in normal working condition, the kettle body remains vertical, and the counterweight 1 is stably installed on the mounting post inside the bottom cover 6 of the kettle body, without interfering with the normal use of the kettle. However, once the electric kettle is tilted or tipped over by external force, the gravity of the counterweight 1 immediately becomes apparent. Its installation position at the end away from the spout 5 causes the center of gravity of the kettle body to shift rapidly backward. This physical change causes the spout 5 to remain tilted upward during the tipping process, effectively blocking the water flow path. Even if the kettle body is tilted to a certain angle, hot water cannot flow out from the spout, thereby greatly reducing the risk of scalding caused by tipping and the damage caused by liquid spillage.

[0021] In summary, this utility model provides a simple, low-cost, and highly reliable anti-tipping electric kettle, effectively solving the problem of traditional electric kettles easily tipping over during use and improving the safety and stability of the product.

[0022] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
