Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of electric kettles, and in particular to an electric kettle with a humidification function. Background Technology
[0002] Electric kettles generate heat by heating a resistance wire (heating tube) with an electric current, and then use heat transfer to raise the water temperature to boiling. However, in existing electric kettles, if the water is not placed in a thermos immediately after boiling, it will cool down if left unattended for a long time. The water then needs to be reheated for later use. Furthermore, the kettle is powered off after each boiling, causing the boiling water to overflow or release as steam. Most of this steam condenses on the top of the kettle as it cools and drips back inside. This means the hot steam from boiling water is not effectively utilized, and repeated boiling can also affect water quality. To address these problems, this application provides an electric kettle with a humidification function. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an electric kettle with humidification function, which solves the technical problem that the hot steam after boiling water in an electric kettle cannot be effectively utilized, and achieves the purpose of improving the practicality of the kettle.
[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an electric kettle with humidification function, including a base as a supporting foundation, a heat preservation control mechanism for keeping water warm at the top of the base, an exhaust mechanism for discharging steam from boiling water at the top of the heat preservation control mechanism, and a heating mechanism for heating the heat preservation control mechanism inside the base.
[0005] The exhaust mechanism includes a top cover located above the heat preservation control mechanism. A steam mesh cover is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top cover, and an exhaust hole is opened at the top of the top cover. A lifting cover is movably connected to the top of the top cover, and a filter water outlet plate is fixedly connected to one side of the top cover.
[0006] Preferably, the vent is connected to the steam mesh cover, and the bottom end of the steam mesh cover has several equally spaced holes.
[0007] Preferably, the filter outlet plate has several holes extending through it.
[0008] Preferably, the heat preservation control mechanism includes a kettle shell fixedly connected to the top of the base, an inner kettle shell fixedly connected to the inside of the kettle shell, reference transparent plates fixedly connected to both sides of the kettle shell and the inner kettle shell, and a handle fixedly connected to one end of the outer side of the kettle shell, with a control board installed on the handle.

[0010] Preferably, one end of the top cover is rotatably connected to the top of the kettle shell near the handle.
[0011] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model provides an electric kettle with humidification function, which has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. Due to the exhaust mechanism, this utility model can centrally exhaust the hot steam inside the heat preservation control mechanism. Furthermore, since the bottom of the steam mesh cover has several equally spaced holes, the exhaust steam can be uniform, thereby achieving the effect of humidifying the external ambient air.
[0013] 2. Due to the heating mechanism, this utility model can intermittently and repeatedly heat the kettle after boiling, thereby preventing the hot water inside the kettle from cooling down and preventing the nitrite content in the water from increasing due to repeated boiling. In addition, it can continuously discharge steam from the exhaust mechanism to humidify the air. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] Existing electric kettles, if not promptly placed into a thermos after boiling water, will allow the water inside to cool down over time. This necessitates reheating for later use. Furthermore, the kettle automatically shuts off after each boil, causing some boiling water to overflow or escape as steam. Most of this steam then condenses on the top of the kettle as it cools and drips back in. This means the hot steam from boiling water is not effectively utilized, and repeated boiling can negatively impact water quality. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figures 1-7 This embodiment provides an electric kettle with a humidification function, solving the technical problem that the hot steam after boiling water in an electric kettle cannot be effectively utilized. The device includes a base 1 as a supporting foundation, a heat preservation control mechanism 2 for keeping the water warm at its top, an exhaust mechanism 3 for discharging boiling steam at its top, and a heating mechanism 4 for heating the heat preservation control mechanism 2 inside the base 1. Water is stored through the heat preservation control mechanism 2, the water inside the heat preservation control mechanism 2 is heated by the heating mechanism 4, and the hot steam discharged through the exhaust mechanism 3 humidifies the air.
[0029] In existing kettles, only a small amount of hot steam escapes through the drain outlet after boiling water, while a large amount of hot steam condenses again at the top inside the kettle and flows back inside. This means that the hot steam generated after boiling water is not effectively utilized. To solve this problem, an exhaust mechanism 3 is proposed. The exhaust mechanism 3 includes a top cover 31 located above the heat preservation control mechanism 2. A steam mesh cover 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the top cover 31, and an air vent 33 is opened at the top of the top cover 31. A lifting cover 34 is movably connected to the top of the top cover 31, and a filter water outlet plate 35 is fixedly connected to one side of the top cover 31.
[0030] To ensure more uniform discharge of hot steam, the vent 33 is connected to the steam mesh cover 32, and the bottom of the steam mesh cover 32 has several equally spaced holes, while the filter water outlet plate 35 has several holes.
[0031] During the water boiling process, the water stored in the heat preservation control mechanism 2 is heated by the heating mechanism 4. After the water boils, the lid 34 at the top of the top cover 31 is opened for sealing. At that time, the hot steam will flow into the air outlet 33 through the steam mesh cover 32 and then flow to the outside through the air outlet 33. This makes the hot steam flow more even and can make full use of the steam generated after boiling the water to humidify the environment. During this period, the heat preservation control mechanism 2 will control the heating mechanism 4 to continuously and slowly heat the water without boiling it, so that the hot steam can be continuously discharged.
[0032] Example 2
[0033] Based on Example 1, which solved the technical problem of ineffective utilization of the hot steam after boiling water in an electric kettle, the problem of increased nitrite content in repeatedly boiled water still exists. Combined with... Figures 1-7 As shown, the specific implementation process is as follows: After boiling water in an existing kettle, if the water cools down, it needs to be boiled again. This repeated boiling will deteriorate the water quality and accelerate the accumulation of scale inside the kettle. To solve this problem, a heat preservation control mechanism 2 and a heating mechanism 4 are proposed. The heat preservation control mechanism 2 includes a kettle shell 21 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. A kettle inner shell 24 is fixedly connected to the inside of the kettle shell 21. Reference transparent plates 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the kettle shell 21 and the kettle inner shell 24. A handle 23 is fixedly connected to one end of the outer side of the kettle shell 21. A control plate 25 is installed on the handle 23. The heating mechanism 4 includes a support base 41 fixedly connected to the inside of the base 1. A power board 42 is installed on the top of the support base 41. A heating plate 43 is installed on the top of the power board 42. A light guide ring 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the support base 41 above the heating plate 43. One end of the top cover 31 is rotatably connected to the top of the kettle shell 21 near the handle 23.
[0034] During the boiling process, water from the outside is stored in the inner shell 24 of the kettle, and the heating plate 43 is controlled by the control chip 25 installed inside the handle 23. This allows the heating plate 43 to continuously heat the water after it has boiled, preventing the hot water inside the kettle from boiling repeatedly, ensuring that the water does not get cold, and ensuring that hot steam is continuously discharged to humidify the environment.
