Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention relates to a water amount display panel for a pot such as a thermos bottle.

[Conventional technology]

For pots such as thermos bottles, water level display devices have been used in various pots in the past, in which a water level pipe communicating with the inner bottle is placed vertically along the outer surface of the pot body wall, and this is covered by a water level display window panel with a display window. It is used in

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

If you use a pot equipped with a water level display device like the one above for tea, coffee, etc.,
There is a problem in that dirt adheres to the inner surface of the water level pipe, making it difficult to read the water level. In this case, if you remove the water level display panel and take out the water level pipe, you can replace or clean the water level pipe, but in conventional pots, the water level display panel is fixed with screws, and the screws are attached to complicated mechanical parts such as the bottom of the pot. It has a complicated structure, as it is attached to a screw, and in order to remove the screw, it is necessary to remove other parts. Therefore, it is not easy for a housewife or the like to remove the water level display panel and take out the water level pipe in an ordinary household.

Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to enable the water level pipe to be easily taken out from the water level display panel.

[Means for solving problems]

As a means to solve the above problems, this invention provides a sliding member with a water level display window formed separately from the panel member, and forms a fitting groove with one end open at the upper end of the panel member. The slide member is slidably fitted into the fitting groove.

〔Example〕

The pot shown in the drawing has a pot main body 3 mounted on a base plate 1 via legs 2, and by operating a lever 4 provided at the lower front of the main body 3, hot water is drawn from a nozzle 5 provided on the lower surface of the main body 3. It is a so-called drop-type heat-retaining pot into which water is poured, and an inner bottle 6 is inserted inside.

The water amount display panel 7 in the pot described above consists of a panel member 8 and a slide member 9. The panel member 8 has a substantially trapezoidal cross section (the third
(see figure), engaging pawls 10 formed on both sides thereof are engaged with holes 12 in the body wall 11 of the main body 3, and the lower part thereof is fixed to the bottom surface of the main body 3 with screws 13.

The water level pipe 14 is drawn out of the body wall 11 via flexible joints 15 and 16, and is arranged on the back surface of the slide member 9 along the display window 17. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the slide member 9 is slidably fitted into a fitting portion 18 formed over the front surface and one side of the panel member 8. The lower end of the fitting part 18 is closed near the lower part of the panel member 8, and the upper end thereof is open at the upper end surface of the panel member 8. Further, a guiding protrusion 19 (see FIG. 3) is formed on one side of the fitting portion 18, and a guiding groove 20 is formed on the other side.

The slide member 9 is attached to the front plate 2 so as to be continuous with the front, side and top surfaces of the panel member 8 without any steps.
1, a side plate 22 and a top plate 23;
As shown in the figure and FIG. 4, the aforementioned display window 17 is formed on the front plate 21, and a transparent plate 24 is attached to the back surface of the display window 17. Further, the front plate 21 is formed with a groove 25 that fits into the protrusion 19 of the panel member 8, and the side plate 22 is formed with a groove 25 that fits into the protrusion 19 of the panel member 8.
A protrusion 26 is formed which fits into the ridge 26.

Since the water amount display panel 7 is constructed as described above, the slide member 9 can freely slide vertically with respect to the panel member 8, and can be pulled out upwardly as shown in FIG. When the slide member 9 is pulled out, the water level pipe 14 is exposed, and can be removed by removing it from the joints 15 and 16.

〔effect〕

As described above, this invention provides a slide member that can be freely pulled out on a part of the display panel, and therefore has the advantage that the water level pipe can be easily removed and replaced.
