[0002] Currently, most integrated cooktops on the market use screws to connect the control unit and the main unit. In addition, more and more smart modules are being added to the control unit to increase the human-computer interaction and improve the user experience. However, in order to ensure that the smart control module in the control unit can operate normally, extra space needs to be reserved in the ventilation duct for wiring. This installation method not only compresses the air intake space of the integrated cooktop, but also increases the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the integrated cooktop. Therefore, this needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the connection structure between the motor head and the main unit encroaching on the space of the air intake, by providing a new connection structure for quick connection between the motor head and the main unit of an integrated stove.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] A connection structure for quick connection between the integrated stove head and the main unit includes a stove head, a main unit, and also includes a socket assembly and a connector assembly. Both the socket assembly and the connector assembly are in pairs. The socket assembly is located on both sides of the bottom of the stove head, and the connector assembly is located on the main unit and cooperates with the socket assembly to form a connection position and a disconnection position. The socket assembly and the connector assembly are detachably connected. The socket assembly is provided with a first electrical connector, and the connector assembly is provided with a second electrical connector. The socket assembly has a downwardly opening connection space. In the connection position, a portion of the connector assembly extends into the connection space, and the first electrical connector connects to the second electrical connector.

[0006] Both the socket assembly and the connector assembly are in pairs. The socket assembly is located on both sides of the bottom of the motor head. A portion of the connector assembly extends into the connection space, allowing the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector to connect. This design simplifies the assembly and disassembly process of the motor head and the integrated cooktop. Furthermore, it integrates the connection and wiring between the motor head and the integrated cooktop, ensuring that the circuit connection does not encroach on ventilation space and improving the exhaust efficiency of the integrated cooktop. The connection between the first and second electrical connectors within the connection space also protects the connection between them.
