Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9622045A1] A jug-type kettle comprises a body (1) of moulded plastics material having a top opening closable by a lid (17), a spout (2), and a handle (3). A hopper (4) is mounted in the upper region of the body (1), the hopper accommodating a filter cartridge (5) which is removably mounted in a cylindrical well (43) formed in the base of the hopper (4) and extending down into the lower region (7) of the body (1). A conventional electric heating element (6) is mounted in the lower region (7) of the kettle body. The hopper (4) and kettle body (1) are shaped such that the lower region (7) communicates with the spout (2) and also with a steam-responsive control (8) mounted in the handle (3). To use the kettle, water is poured into the hopper (4) via the top opening and is constrained to pass through the filter cartridge (5) before entering the lower region (7) to be heated by the heating element (6).
