Patent number: 11672372Abstract: An electric kettle may include a body formed in a cylindrical shape having an open upper surface and an open lower surface, the body defining a space in which fluid, such as water may be contained, an upper body mounted on an upper end of the body and communicating with the open upper surface of the body, a lid seated on the upper body to open and close the open upper surface of the body, a heating module inserted and mounted through the open lower surface of the body to partition an inside of the body vertically and heat fluid inside of the body, and a base on which the lower surface of the body is seated and which transfers power applied from outside to the heating module when the body is seated. The body may include an outer body forming an outer surface and an inner body forming an inner surface. The heating module may be mounted on the inner surface of the inner body.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2020Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Jongok Park, Minkyu Si

Patent number: 11564525Abstract: An electric kettle may include a body made of a metal material, formed by an outer body and an inner body having a cylindrical shape with an open upper surface and an open lower surface, a heat insulation space being formed between the outer body and the inner body, a heating module configured to form a bottom of a space in which fluid, such as water may be contained inside of the body and heat the fluid, a mounting port that passes through the outer body and the inner body, a window made of a transparent material and mounted on the mounting port to allow an inside of the body to be viewed therethrough, and a gasket disposed along a circumference of the window to seal a gap between the inner body and the window. The window may be doubly sealed in contact with the outer body and the gasket.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2020Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Assignee: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Jongwon Park, Minkyu Si

Patent number: 11490758Abstract: An electric kettle may include a body configured to form a space in which fluid, such as water is contained, a heating module provided inside of the body to heat fluid, and a base on which a lower surface of the body is seated and which supplies power to the heating module in a state in which the body is seated. The base may include a connector which is exposed through a side surface of the base and to which a power cable for receiving external power may be connected, and a connector mounting portion formed along a circumference of the connector and protruding further outward than a side surface of the base and a front surface of the connector so as to block fluid or foreign matter from flowing into the connector.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2020Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: LG ELECTRONICS INC.Inventors: Minkyu Si, Jaehoon Ahn

Patent number: 8814409Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a signal input module for inputting a signal as an opening formed at a case of a terminal body is pressed, and the signal input module includes an input key, a light guiding unit, a key mold, a light emitting unit, a circuit board, a dome switch and an actuator, which are all integrally fixed together and moved by being pressed. The light emitting unit is accommodated in a key mold having an opening for allowing light to be transferred to the light guiding unit. The input key, the light guiding unit, the key mold and the light emitting unit are mounted onto one surface of the circuit board, the circuit board is moved by being pressed, and the dome switch mounted onto another surface of the circuit board is transformed so as to generate a signal.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2012Date of Patent: August 26, 2014Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Sungjoon Hong, Minkyu Si
