[0028] The anti-scalding isolation mechanism includes an anti-scalding isolation component disposed on the inner surface of the handle 105. A fixing installation component is provided at the connection between the top of the anti-scalding isolation component and the top of the handle 105, and an abutment component is provided at the bottom of the anti-scalding isolation component. The anti-scalding isolation mechanism can isolate the hand from the surface of the main body 101 of the electric kettle body 101 when holding the handle 105 after boiling water, so as to prevent burns from contact.
[0029] In order to facilitate the isolation and protection between the inner surface of the handle 105 and the surface of the main body 101 through the anti-scalding isolation component, and to prevent burns, in this embodiment, preferably, the anti-scalding isolation component includes an anti-scalding baffle 1052 disposed on the inner surface of the handle 105, an insulation cavity 1053 formed inside the anti-scalding baffle 1052, and a silicone pad 1054 fixed to the inner surface of the anti-scalding baffle 1052 by screws. When holding the handle 105, the anti-scalding baffle 1052, the insulation cavity 1053 and the silicone pad 1054 can isolate and protect against burns.
[0030] To facilitate the fixed installation of the anti-scalding baffle 1052 using a fixed installation assembly, in this embodiment, preferably, the fixed installation assembly includes an inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 integrally disposed at the top of the anti-scalding baffle 1052. The lower surface of the inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 is provided with a fixing screw 1056, and the inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the handle 105 by the fixing screw 1056. The upper surface of the inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 can be closed to contact the inner top rear end of the handle 105, and the fixing screw 1056 can be rotated to fix the inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 to the handle 105, thus facilitating fixed installation and use.
[0031] In order to facilitate the support of the bottom end of the anti-scalding baffle 1052 by means of the abutment component, in this embodiment, preferably, the abutment component includes an abutment plate 1055 integrally disposed at the bottom end of the anti-scalding baffle 1052. The inner surface of the abutment plate 1055 is in contact with the outer surface of the main pot body 101. After the anti-scalding baffle 1052 is fixedly installed, the bottom end of the anti-scalding baffle 1052 is supported and abutted against the surface of the main pot body 101 by the abutment plate 1055.
[0032] In this utility model, the main body 101 and the gooseneck spout 103 are made of high-quality stainless steel, which is durable, heat-insulating, and corrosion-resistant, and the handle 105 has a comfortable grip.
[0033] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: When using this electric kettle with rotary valve flow control, first open the kettle lid 104 to fill the inside of the main kettle body 101 with cold water, then close the kettle lid 104 again, and use the electric heating base 102 to heat the main kettle body 101 to boil water. After boiling, hold the handle 105 with the knurled surface 106 to pick up the electric kettle body 100 for use.
[0034] Then, when the electric kettle body 100 needs to be poured, while boiling water, the hand-held flow limiter knob 1034 drives the cylindrical valve 1032 to rotate. When the cylindrical valve 1032 is inside the closed cavity seat 1031, it is sealed by the sealing ring 1033 to prevent leakage during rotation adjustment. When the cylindrical valve 1032 is rotated, the through hole inside the closed cavity seat 1031 and the bottom of the gooseneck spout 103 is opened to the size of the water flow. When the cylindrical valve 1032 is rotated, the rotation limiter 1035 limits the control, and the maximum adjustment angle is 90 degrees to precisely control the cylindrical valve 1032 to be fully open or fully closed. Thus, when it is open, it is convenient to control the flow rate when pouring to the outside through the gooseneck spout 103. The flow rate is stable during pouring and it is not easy to cause splashing and overflow. At the same time, the pouring is more accurate and convenient, improving the convenience of flow control and the accuracy of pouring when using the electric kettle body 100 to pour boiling water.
[0035] Finally, before using the electric kettle body 100, the top of the inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 is brought into contact with the inner top of the handle 105, and the fixing screw 1056 is rotated to fix the inner arc-shaped mounting plate 1051 and the anti-scalding baffle 1052. After the anti-scalding baffle 1052 is fixedly installed, the bottom of the abutment plate 1055 contacts the outer surface of the main kettle body 101 for support, thereby fixing the anti-scalding baffle 1052 for anti-scalding isolation. After the electric kettle body 100 boils, if fingers extend into the inside of the handle 105 and grip the handle 105 tightly, they may directly touch the surface of the silicone pad 1054 without notice. The silicone pad 1054 and the heat insulation cavity 1053 provide anti-scalding protection, allowing for safe holding and tilting. This improves the convenience and safety of anti-scalding isolation of the handle 105 when taking the electric kettle body 100 after boiling.
