[0043] Example 1

[0044] The existing desktop water purifier has no visual hierarchy. To achieve a three-dimensional visual effect and smooth touch, the conventional method is to design a desired three-dimensional pattern on the back of the transparent part, and to spray the desired appearance color on the inner side of the transparent part by back spraying. The color sprayed and the designed three-dimensional pattern are presented to the user. Since the transparent part cannot have excess fixing structure in the appearance area of the part, the conventional method is to paste the back spraying part on the bearing part by using glue.

[0045] The transparent back spraying part has high requirements for the mold during injection molding. The position under the ejection pin will be seen by the user, affecting the appearance of the product. The back spraying part needs to be pasted using glue, a pressing tool needs to be prepared, and a certain pressing time is required, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0046] Therefore, the embodiment provides a front shell assembly.

[0047] In one embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 11 The front shell assembly includes a front shell 1 and a back spraying part 2. The front side top of the front shell 1 is provided with a first connecting part, and the bottom thereof forms a second connecting part. The front shell 1 is suitable for fixed connection with a body 4. The back spraying part 2 is made of transparent material. The back side of the back spraying part 2 is provided with a three-dimensional pattern area 201. The top of the back spraying part 2 forms a first fixing part suitable for clamping or inserting with the first connecting part. The bottom of the back spraying part 2 forms a second fixing part suitable for clamping or inserting with the second connecting part.

[0048] In this embodiment, the three-dimensional pattern area 201 is used to draw the appearance pattern that is desired to be achieved, to meet the appearance design requirements. The back spraying part 2 is clamped or inserted with the first connecting part on the front shell 1 through the first fixing part, and is clamped or inserted with the second connecting part on the front shell 1 through the second fixing part. The back spraying part 2 does not need to be pasted using glue, so compared with the prior art, the glue pressing tool and the glue brushing station can be reduced, the installation time is reduced, and the size of the injection molding part is slightly affected by the first fixing part and the second fixing part, so the cost increase is negligible.

[0049] It should be noted that the shape of the appearance pattern drawn by the three-dimensional pattern area 201 is not the focus of the embodiment, and will not be described in detail.

[0050] It should be further noted that since the first fixing part and the second fixing part are located at the top and the bottom of the back spraying part 2, they will not affect the effect of the three-dimensional pattern drawn in the three-dimensional pattern area 201.

[0051] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the first connecting portion comprises a first matching hole 101, and the first fixing portion comprises a first fixing rib 202 adapted to be inserted into the first matching hole 101. In this embodiment, the first fixing rib 202 is inserted into the first matching hole 101, and the connection between the two is simple and convenient.

[0052] As shown in Figure 7 , the front shell 1 specifically comprises a main plate 102, a side plate 103 located on one side of the main plate 102, and a fixing plate 104 connected to the top of the main plate 102 and the side plate 103. The main plate 102 and the side plate 103 are connected in a substantially L shape, and are smoothly connected through a round corner. The fixing plate 104 and the main plate 102 form a plurality of first matching holes 101. When the first fixing rib 202 is inserted into the first matching hole 101, the first fixing rib 202 and the first matching hole 101 are hidden, and the appearance is relatively beautiful.

[0053] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the first fixing portion further comprises a first buckle 203 adapted to be inserted into the first matching hole 101 and to be clamped with the top of the front shell 1. In this embodiment, the provision of the first buckle 203 can ensure the stable connection between the back spraying piece 2 and the front shell 1.

[0054] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the front shell 1 is formed with a first step portion 105, the second connecting portion is a second fixing rib 106 formed on the first step portion 105, the bottom of the back spraying piece 2 is formed with a second step portion 204 adapted to the first step portion 105, the second fixing portion is a second matching hole 205 formed on the second step portion 204, and the second fixing rib 106 is adapted to be inserted into the second matching hole 205. In this embodiment, the second fixing rib 106 is inserted into the second matching hole 205, and the connection between the two is simple and convenient. By forming the second fixing rib 106 on the first step portion 105, the second matching hole 205 on the second step portion 204, and the second fixing rib 106 inserted into the second matching hole 205, the second fixing rib 106 and the second matching hole 205 are hidden.

[0055] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 7 , the first step portion 105 faces the lower side, the second step portion 204 faces the upper side, and the second step portion 204 is formed on the back of the back spraying piece 2. The front surface of the back spraying piece 2 is a smooth surface, and the appearance is beautiful after the back spraying piece 2 is assembled to the front shell 1.

[0056] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the side portion of the back spray piece 2 is provided with a second buckle 206, which is suitable for being buckled with the side portion of the front shell 1. In this embodiment, the provision of the second buckle 206 can make the connection of the back spray piece 2 and the front shell 1 more stable.

[0057] As shown in detail in Figure 1 , the back spray piece 2 is in the shape of an L-shaped with rounded corners, and includes a main plane and a side plane, and the second buckle 206 is located at the edge of the side plane.

[0058] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, in a preferred embodiment, the front shell assembly further includes a top decoration piece 3, which is fixedly connected with the top of the front shell 1. In this embodiment, the top decoration piece 3 is directly fixed on the front shell 1, and the top decoration piece 3 can be individually treated for appearance effect (such as electroplating, gilding, etc.), and since the top decoration piece 3 is relatively small, treating the small part for appearance can reduce the cost of appearance treatment of the product and save the cost of the whole machine, and at the same time, the modeling area of the top decoration piece 3 can be uniquely set according to the appearance modeling to meet the appearance requirements.

[0059] In detail, in an embodiment, the top of the top decoration piece 3 is connected with the top of the front shell 1 by a fastener, or as shown in Figure 1 , the bottom of the top decoration piece 3 is provided with a third buckle 301, which is buckled with the top of the front shell 1.

[0060] In detail, in an embodiment, the top decoration piece 3 is in the shape of an L-shaped, which can wrap two edges of the top plate of the front shell 1.
