Electric kettle with metal healing plate
First Claim
1. Electric kettle comprising a tubular body (1) comprising a side wall (3), heating means (5) comprising at least one electrical resistance (6) associated with a metal heating plate (8) mounted in sealed manner in the lower portion of the body (1) and delimiting with the side wall (3) of the body a reservoir (10) for the liquid to be heated, said heating plate (8) being in direct contact, by its upper surface, with the liquid to be heated, and support means to support a peripheral rim (8a) of the heating plate (8),characterized in that the support means comprise a member forming a skirt (20) which extends vertically within the body (1), between the peripheral rim (8a) of the plate (8) and the lower peripheral edge (16) of the body (1), supporting with its upper peripheral edge (22) the lower surface of the peripheral rim (8a) of the heating plate (8), and which is fixed on the internal surface (3a) of the side wall (3) of the body by first reversible securement means (28, 30), and in that the body (1) of the kettle comprises a base constituted by a closure cover (24) which is secured on the member forming a skirt (20) by a second reversible securement means (32, 37).

Abstract
An electric kettle includes a tubular body (1), heating elements comprising an electric resistor (6) associated with a heating plate (8) mounted in the body lower part, defining with the side wall (3) of the body (1) a reservoir (10) of liquid to be heated and in direct contact by its upper surface with the liquid, and elements supporting a peripheral rim (8a) of the heating plate (8). The support elements comprise a vertical skirt (20) extending inside the body (1) and fixed on the inner surface (3a) of the body side wall (3) by first reversible fixing elements (28, 30), and the body (1) has a base formed by a lid (24) fixed on the skirt (20) with second reversible fixing elements (32, 37).
