[0033] Reference Figure 1 An anti-overflow kettle according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a kettle body 100 and a spout tube 102. The spout tube 102 is connected to the outer peripheral wall of the kettle body 100. The peripheral wall of the kettle body 100 is provided with a water outlet 103, which is located at the bottom of the inner cavity 101 and can connect the inner cavity 101 and the spout tube 102. Understandably, the inner cavity 101 is provided with a valve body assembly 120, which includes a mounting base 123, a transmission rod 122, a spring 124, and a plug 125. The plug 125 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the transmission rod 122. The mounting base 123 is installed in the inner cavity 101 at the location where the water outlet 103 is set. The mounting base 123 has a channel 126 for connecting the spout tube 102 and the inner cavity 101. The spring 124 and the plug 125 are both installed in the mounting base 123, and the spring 124 is located at the bottom of the plug 125. The spring 124 can push the plug 125 to seal one end of the channel 126, thereby automatically closing the channel 126 to prevent water leakage when the kettle body 100 is overturned, ensuring safety.

[0034] It is understandable that a detachable lid 110 is installed on the top of the kettle body 100. The lid 110 is equipped with a button 111 and a push block 113. Pressing the button 111 can drive the push block 113 to extend in the radial direction of the lid 110. When the push block 113 extends, it can press the transmission rod 122, causing the transmission rod 122 to move and drive the plug 125 to move, so that the channel 126 is open, and the water in the inner cavity 101 can be discharged along the spout tube 102 to realize the water pouring operation.

[0035] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The valve body assembly 120 also includes a mounting tube 121, which is fixedly installed on the inner peripheral wall of the kettle body 100 where the outlet 103 is located. The transmission rod 122 is inserted into the mounting tube 121. At the same time, a guide sleeve 130 is provided at the top end of the mounting tube 121. The inner peripheral wall of the guide sleeve 130 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the transmission rod 122, which can prevent the transmission rod 122 from shaking and help ensure the movement stability of the transmission rod 122.

[0036] It is understood that the mounting pipe 121 connects to the mounting base 123, and the two ends of the channel 126 have a first connecting port 127 and a second connecting port 128. The first connecting port 127 is located at the end of the mounting pipe 121 near the mounting base 123 and connects to the inner cavity 101. The mounting base 123 has a third connecting port 129, which is located at the top of the mounting base 123 connecting to the mounting pipe 121. The inner diameter of the third connecting port 129 is smaller than the outer diameter of the plug 125. The spring 124 can push the plug 125 to seal the third connecting port 129, thereby achieving the function of sealing the channel 126 to prevent water leakage. It is understood that the second connecting port 128 is located on the side of the mounting base 123 opposite to the first connecting port 127, and the second connecting port 128 connects to the spout pipe 102 through the outlet 103. That is, when the plug 125 is pressed down, the first connecting port 127, the second connecting port 128, and the third connecting port 129 are connected in sequence, and the water in the inner cavity 101 can be discharged from the outlet 103 into the spout tube 102, realizing the pouring function. In this embodiment, the third connecting port 129 has a circular cross-section, and the plug 125 is spherical, with a simple structure that can stably seal the third connecting port 129.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, at least two push blocks 113 are provided along the circumference of the cover 110, and the two push blocks 113 are arranged opposite to each other. It can be understood that a tension spring 119 is provided between the two push blocks 113. When the button 111 is reset, the tension spring 119 can pull the two push blocks 113 to move relative to each other to achieve reset, so that the plug 125 and the transmission rod 122 can be reset, thereby closing the channel 126.

[0038] Understandably, the cover 110 is equipped with a self-locking switch 115. When the button 111 is pressed, the self-locking switch 115 prevents the button 111 from returning to its original position and keeps the push block 113 extended, thereby keeping the valve body assembly 120 in the open state and ensuring smooth water pouring operation. Furthermore, when closing, the button 111 needs to be pressed again. The self-locking switch 115 can reset the button 111, thereby retracting the push block 113 and closing the valve body assembly 120 to close the channel 126, achieving the anti-overflow function.

[0039] Understandably, button 111 is equipped with a drive block 112. The drive block 112 has a first drive surface 116 inclined in the radial direction of cover 110. When button 111 is pressed, drive block 112 moves downward, and the first drive surface 116 can press against push block 113, causing push block 113 to move in the radial direction of cover 110. Furthermore, push block 113 has an inclined second drive surface 117 at its end away from drive block 112. When push block 113 moves in the radial direction of cover 110, second drive surface 117 can press against the top of transmission rod 122, causing transmission rod 122 to move downward, thereby opening channel 126, which is beneficial for achieving low-resistance transmission.

[0040] Furthermore, referring to Figure 5 The top of the kettle body 100 has a raised edge 105 surrounding the outer periphery of the lid 110. The raised edge 105 extends radially from the inner wall of the kettle body 100 towards the lid 110, and a mounting edge 104 protrudes outward from the raised edge 105. A washer 114 is provided on the outer periphery of the lid 110 to press against the inner peripheral wall of the mounting edge 104, so as to ensure that the lid 110 is stably closed on the top of the kettle body 100. At the same time, when the push block 113 extends, it can engage with the mounting edge 104 to prevent the lid 110 from falling off during water pouring, thereby improving safety. It is understood that the raised edge 105 has a vent hole 118, and the vent hole 118 has a waterproof and breathable membrane, which can ensure the passage of water vapor while preventing water leakage from the kettle body 100 when tipped over, thus ensuring safety during use.

[0041] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
