Embodiment approach 1

[0029] Embodiment 1 relates to a connection assembly 3, specifically as Figure 1-3 As shown in , it includes a first link 33, a second link 32, an elastic member 34, a first hook 38 and a second hook 35; wherein the first end of the first link 33 and the second link 32 The first end is hinged; the elastic member 34 acts on the first connecting rod 33 and the second connecting rod 32 and makes the first connecting rod 33 and the second connecting rod 32 rotate toward a position close to each other, and the Close means that the angle between the first link 33 and the second link 32 changes from large to small, on the contrary, away from means that the angle between the first link 33 and the second link 32 changes from small to large , Preferably, the angle between the first link 33 and the second link 32 does not exceed 180 degrees. Preferably, the elastic member 34 can be a tension spring or a torsion spring; as shown in the figure, the tension spring used in this embodiment ...

Embodiment approach 2

[0039] Embodiment 2 relates to a water heater, such as Figure 4-7 As shown in , it includes a liner 1 and a microchannel heat exchanger assembly 2 . The microchannel heat exchanger assembly includes two headers 23, and a plurality of flat tubes 22 are arranged between the two headers 23, and the two ends of the flat tubes 23 communicate with the two headers 23 respectively. In the state of use, the microchannel heat exchanger assembly 2 surrounds the outer periphery of the inner container 1 and is fixed on the inner container 1 through the connection assembly 3 in the first embodiment. Its specific connection structure is as Figure 4-7 .

[0040] A connection mechanism is provided on the header 23, the connection mechanism is preferably a pull ring 21, and the number can be one or more. After the microchannel heat exchanger assembly 2 surrounds the inner tank 1, the two flat tubes 23 are arranged adjacent to the surface of the inner tank 1. At this time, the first hook pa...

Abstract

The invention aims to provide a connecting assembly and a water heater, and is used for solving the problem that a water heater is low in assembling efficiency. The connecting assembly comprises a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, an elastic piece, a first hook part and a second hook part, wherein a first end of the first connecting rod is hinged to a first end of the second connecting rod; the elastic piece acts on the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod; by the elastic piece, the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod get close to each other during rotation; the relative distance between a second end of the first connecting rod and the first hook part is not changed; the second hook part can move along with a second end of the second connecting rod; and the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod rotate relatively so that the first hook part and the second hook part can get close to each other or away from each other. By the elastic piece, an included angle between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod is controlled; and by the hook parts, quick connection can be realized, and assembly efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of connectors, in particular to a connector assembly and a water heater. Background technique [0002] In the existing water heaters using micro-channel heat exchangers, when the micro-channel heat exchanger is connected to the inner tank, screws are usually used to fix it, which is inconvenient to assemble and has low efficiency. A tool for efficient assembly of heat exchangers and liners. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of this, the present invention provides a connection assembly for realizing quick connection between two components. [0004] For reaching this purpose, the present invention adopts following technical scheme: [0005] A connection assembly, comprising a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, an elastic member, a first hook and a second hook; wherein the first end of the first connecting rod is hinged to the first end of the second connecting rod; the The elastic member acts o...
