Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a water outlet structure for a kettle. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of kettle technology, to solve the problems of scalding, spillage, and residual liquid in traditional tilting kettles, electric kettles with automatic spouts have gradually emerged. Theoretically, these kettles use a bottom pump to draw liquid from the kettle and transport it through pipes to the top spout, which can provide convenient water dispensing. However, the pipe layout design of existing products has a core shortcoming: the delivery pipe does not have a dedicated limiting structure to constrain the pipe when it passes through the kettle body, nor does it have a pre-set channel for the pipe to pass through. This results in the pipe being randomly threaded and arranged without any fixed points or channels. This design without fixed points or channels makes the pipe prone to shaking under liquid delivery pressure or external vibration, causing continuous friction with the kettle body, handle, and other components, leading to damage to the outer insulation layer and the risk of leakage. Furthermore, because the pipe lacks a clear direction, it is prone to twisting and bending, which not only increases the delivery resistance but also causes cracks at stress concentration points due to long-term impact, significantly shortening its service life. The disordered pipe layout also makes it difficult to quickly locate the path during assembly and makes pipe disassembly difficult during maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a water outlet structure for a kettle that can effectively limit the flow of water, ensure a neat pipe layout, improve the reliability and service life of the kettle, and facilitate assembly and maintenance.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A water outlet structure for a kettle includes a kettle body, a water outlet component located below the kettle body, and a liquid outlet component located above the kettle body. A delivery pipe is provided between the water outlet component and the liquid outlet component for communication. The delivery pipe passes through the kettle body. A limiting structure is provided on the kettle body for planning the route of the delivery pipe. The delivery pipe is arranged along the route defined by the limiting structure. The limiting structure limits the delivery pipe. The water outlet component delivers liquid through the delivery pipe to the liquid outlet component for discharge.

[0005] Preferably, the water outlet assembly includes an inlet head and a water pump, and the delivery pipe includes an inlet pipe and a delivery pipe. The inlet end of the water pump is connected to the inlet head through the inlet pipe, and the outlet end of the water pump is connected to the delivery pipe. Power is provided by the water pump, and a complete delivery path is formed through the inlet pipe and the delivery pipe. The cooperation between the inlet head and the water pump can more thoroughly extract the liquid in the container and reduce residual liquid.

[0006] Preferably, the limiting structure includes two limiting plates, and a channel for the conveying pipe to pass through is formed between the two limiting plates. The limiting structure uses two limiting plates to form a channel, and the double-sided limiting can more stably constrain the conveying pipe and prevent the pipe from shifting due to pressure or vibration during liquid transportation. At the same time, the channel design provides a clear direction for the pipe, avoids pipe twisting, and reduces liquid transportation resistance.

[0007] Preferably, the kettle body is provided with a handle, and the handle is provided with an inner plate with a certain space inside. Two limiting plates are set on the inner plate inside the handle. By setting the limiting plates on the inner plate inside the handle, the unused space inside the handle is fully utilized, and there is no need to increase the volume of the kettle body, making the overall structure of the kettle more compact.

[0008] Preferably, the handle is provided with a through hole one for the delivery pipe to enter and a through hole two for the delivery pipe to exit. The through hole one is located on the side of the handle near the lower part of the kettle body, and the through hole two is located on the side of the handle near the upper part of the kettle body. The through holes one and two on the handle correspond to the entry and exit positions of the pipe, respectively, which clearly defines the starting and ending points of the pipe's path in the handle and avoids the pipe from being randomly tangled in the handle.

[0009] Preferably, the kettle body is provided with a kettle top, and the kettle top is provided with a channel groove, which is connected to the through hole two for the delivery pipe to pass through. The channel groove on the kettle top is connected to the through hole two, which provides guidance for the transition of the delivery pipe from the handle to the liquid outlet, avoids the pipe from bending arbitrarily at the top, and reduces local resistance during the liquid delivery process.

[0010] Preferably, the liquid outlet component includes a liquid outlet section and a water outlet head. The water outlet head is located inside the liquid outlet section and has a water inlet end. The delivery pipe is connected to the water inlet end. The water outlet head is built into the liquid outlet section, and the liquid outlet section is a shell. The water outlet head is fixed inside the liquid outlet section for protection.

[0011] Preferably, the kettle body has a kettle bottom, and the water pump is located inside the kettle bottom, with the bottom space providing a stable installation environment for the water pump.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This utility model effectively limits the conveying pipe through a limiting structure, preventing it from shaking, rubbing, or tangling, reducing wear and leakage risks, and improving reliability and service life. The limiting structure uses two limiting plates to form a channel, providing stable constraint on both sides, avoiding pipe twisting, reducing conveying resistance, and having a simple structure that is easy to assemble. The limiting structure is also set up using the internal space of the handle, making the whole compact. The through hole of the handle matches the top channel groove to ensure the pipe is neat and facilitates assembly and maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0019] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number. Example

[0020] Please see Figure 1-4 A water outlet structure for a kettle includes a kettle body 1, a water outlet component 5 located below the kettle body 1, and a liquid outlet component located above the kettle body 1. A conveying pipe 54 connects the water outlet component 5 and the liquid outlet component, and the conveying pipe 54 passes through the kettle body 1. The kettle body 1 has a limiting structure for planning the route of the conveying pipe 54. The conveying pipe 54 is set along the route defined by the limiting structure, and the limiting structure limits the conveying pipe 54. The water outlet component 5 conveys liquid through the conveying pipe 54 to the liquid outlet component for discharge. By setting the conveying pipe 54 to connect the water outlet component 5 and the liquid outlet component, and setting the limiting structure on the path of the conveying pipe 54, the conveying pipe 54 can be effectively limited, preventing the conveying pipe 54 from shaking, tangling, or rubbing against other components during the use of the kettle, reducing the risk of pipe wear and leakage, and improving the reliability and service life of the kettle.

[0021] The water outlet assembly 5 includes an inlet head 51 and a water pump 53. The delivery pipe 54 includes an inlet pipe 52 and a delivery pipe 54. The inlet end of the water pump 53 is connected to the inlet head 51 through the inlet pipe 52, and the outlet end of the water pump 53 is connected to the delivery pipe 54. Power is provided by the water pump 53, and a complete delivery path is formed through the inlet pipe 52 and the delivery pipe 54. The cooperation between the inlet head 51 and the water pump 53 can more thoroughly extract the liquid in the container and reduce residual liquid.

[0022] The limiting structure includes two limiting plates 62, forming a channel between the two limiting plates 62 for the conveying pipe 54 to pass through. The limiting structure uses two limiting plates 62 to form a channel, and the double-sided limiting can more stably constrain the conveying pipe 54, preventing the pipe from shifting due to pressure or vibration during liquid transportation. At the same time, the channel design provides a clear direction for the pipe, avoids pipe twisting, reduces liquid transportation resistance, and forms a channel for the conveying pipe 54 to pass through. The structure is simple, easy to process and assemble, and can stably limit the conveying pipe 54, ensuring a regular pipe layout and making the internal structure of the kettle more orderly.

[0023] The kettle body 1 is provided with a handle 6, and the handle 6 has an inner plate 61 inside, which has a certain space. Two limiting plates 62 are set on the inner plate 61 inside the handle 6. By setting the limiting structure on the inner plate 61 inside the handle 6, the internal space of the handle 6 is fully utilized without occupying other space in the kettle, making the overall structure of the kettle compact. The through hole one and through hole two 63 set on the handle 6 provide a clear path for the insertion and exit of the delivery pipe 54, further ensuring the regularity of the pipe layout and facilitating assembly and maintenance.

[0024] The handle 6 is provided with a through hole 1 for the delivery pipe 54 to pass through and a through hole 2 63 for it to exit. The through hole 1 is located on the side of the handle 6 near the bottom of the kettle body 1, and the through hole 2 63 is located on the side of the handle 6 near the top of the kettle body 1. The through holes 1 and 2 63 on the handle 6 correspond to the positions where the pipe passes through and exits, respectively, clearly defining the starting and ending points of the pipe's path within the handle 6, thus preventing the pipe from becoming disorderly tangled within the handle 6.

[0025] The kettle body 1 has a kettle top 2 on top, and a channel groove 21 is provided on the kettle top 2. The channel groove 21 is connected to the through hole 63 for the delivery pipe 54 to pass through. The channel groove 21 on the kettle top 2 is connected to the through hole 63, which provides guidance for the transition of the delivery pipe 54 from the handle 6 to the liquid outlet component. This allows the delivery pipe 54 to pass smoothly from the handle 6 to the liquid outlet component, ensuring the smoothness of the delivery pipe 54 path, avoiding bending and twisting of the pipe, reducing resistance in the liquid delivery process, and improving water output efficiency.

[0026] The liquid outlet component includes a liquid outlet section 3 and a water outlet head 31. The water outlet head 31 is located inside the liquid outlet section 3 and has a water inlet end 32. The delivery pipe 54 is connected to the water inlet end 32. The water outlet head 31 is built into the liquid outlet section 3, which is a housing. The water outlet head 31 is fixed inside the liquid outlet section 3 for protection.

[0027] The kettle body 1 has a kettle bottom 4 below it, and the water pump 53 is located inside the kettle bottom 4. The bottom space provides a stable installation environment for the water pump 53 and can effectively draw liquid from the kettle body 1, reduce residual liquid in the kettle, and improve the efficiency of the kettle.

[0028] When water is needed, the water pump 53 is activated. Liquid inside the kettle body 1, under the action of the water pump 53, enters the pump 53 sequentially through the inlet head 51 and the liquid inlet pipe 52. The pump 53 then transports the liquid to the delivery pipe 54. The delivery pipe 54 passes sequentially through the first through-hole on the handle 6, the channel formed by the two limiting plates 62, the second through-hole 63, and the channel groove 21 on the top of the kettle 2, finally delivering the liquid to the inlet end 32 of the outlet head 31, from which it is discharged. Throughout the process, the limiting plates 62 effectively limit the movement of the delivery pipe 54, preventing it from shaking. The first through-hole, the second through-hole 63, and the channel groove 21 provide a clear path for the delivery pipe 54, ensuring the regularity of the pipe layout and allowing the liquid to be smoothly transported from the water outlet assembly 5 to the liquid outlet component.

[0029] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations or modifications.
