After installation, it is not convenient to disassemble and maintain, and violent disassembly may damage the equipment or damage the appearance of the wall.

[0003] The patent application with application number 202220987723 uses a limiting buckle arranged at the edge of the installation slot to make the temperature control panel clamped in the installation slot, which is stable and not easy to loosen. However, a large force is required to disassemble it, which is easy to damage.

[0004] The patent application with application number 202220032178 uses an aluminum alloy panel to set a wall-mounted iron frame inside, integrates circuit components on a panel, and is easy to operate and control multiple devices. However, compared with mechanical temperature control panels, the installation is complex and the maintenance cost is high. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present application provides a mounting structure for a temperature control panel, which can be firmly installed on the wall of a room while being compatible with various styles and sizes of decorative middle frames on the market, thereby meeting the uniformity and aesthetics of the user's wall panel. Moreover, by changing the distance between the magnets and increasing the magnetic attraction, the mounting structure can be adapted to decorative middle frames of different thicknesses. When disassembly is required, no tools are needed to pry and disassemble, and the mounting structure can be directly disassembled, which is convenient to operate.

[0006] The present application is achieved by the following measures:

[0007] A mounting structure for a temperature control panel, comprising a seat, a display control unit, a decorative middle frame, a compressible material, a magnet, an opening, a connecting boss, a positioning column, and a positioning hole. The seat is fixed on a wall reserved line box. The display control unit is installed on the seat. The decorative middle frame is located between the seat and the display control unit. The compressible material is installed between the display control unit and the decorative middle frame. The opening is on the decorative middle frame. The connecting boss is on the display control unit. The magnet is distributed on the seat and the display control unit. The positioning column is on the seat. The positioning hole is on the display control unit.

[0008] Further, the base can be firmly installed in the wall of a room or building by screws, and the display control unit includes display and operation structures such as a screen, buttons, switches, sensors, and indicator lights.

[0009] Further, the connecting boss on the display control unit is connected to the base through an opening on the decorative middle frame, and the decorative middle frame is clamped therebetween. The opening is larger than the connecting boss in size, and can be compatible with different types of decorative middle frames, and is suitable for different scenes and devices.

[0010] Further, when the compressible material is installed between the decorative middle frame and the display control unit, a friction force is generated between the compressible material and the decorative middle frame, which prevents the decorative middle frame from moving radially in the direction of gravity, and the position of the decorative middle frame can be adjusted.

[0011] Further, the base is provided with at least two magnets, and the display control unit is provided with a corresponding number of magnets with opposite polarity. The magnets are divided into fixed magnets and variable magnets. The fixed magnets are firmly installed on the connecting boss of the base and the display control unit, and the variable magnets are installed on the connecting boss of the display control unit by a spring device, which can be radially displaced by the spring device to protrude from the plane of the connecting boss.

[0014] Or, generally, the spring is in a free state, at this time the variable interval magnet protrudes a distance from the plane of the connecting boss, when the display control unit is installed on the support, the spring is compressed, the variable interval magnet is adsorbed with the corresponding fixed magnet, when the thickness of the decorative middle frame increases, the interval of the fixed magnet becomes larger, the magnetic force becomes smaller, at this time, because the spring has a certain amount of expansion, the thicker the decorative middle frame, the smaller the compression amount of the spring, so that the variable interval magnet can adapt to the device middle frame of different thickness.

[0015] Further, the fixed magnet and the variable interval magnet are electromagnets, the spring is internally provided with a sliding rheostat, and the movable end of the spring is fixedly connected with the sliding sheet of the sliding rheostat, the sliding rheostat is electrically connected with the electromagnet, when the display control unit is installed on the support, the spring is compressed, the sliding sheet moves with the movable end of the spring, so as to change the length of the resistance wire of the access circuit, with the increase of the compression amount of the spring, the length of the resistance wire of the access circuit decreases, the current increases, and the magnetic force of the electromagnet increases, so as to enhance the firmness of the installation between the display control unit, the decorative middle frame and the support.

[0016] Further, a micro air pump is arranged in the support, a plurality of air holes are arranged on the panel of the support, and a second switch electrically connected with the micro air pump is arranged on the display control unit, the micro air pump can be used to pump air and inflate the space between the support, the decorative middle frame and the display control unit, when the thickness of the decorative middle frame increases, the locking device is opened through the first switch, the spring is elongated to make the variable interval magnet axially displace and protrude from the plane of the connecting boss and be adsorbed with the corresponding fixed magnet; in order to further improve the firmness of assembly, the micro air pump is turned on through the second switch on the display control unit, the area between the support, the decorative middle frame and the display control unit is pumped through the air holes, and the area between the three is in a negative pressure state, so that the support, the decorative middle frame and the display control unit are assembled more firmly, when disassembly is needed, the area between the three is inflated through the micro air pump controlled by the second switch to restore the internal air pressure, so as to facilitate disassembly.

[0017] Further, a plurality of air bags are arranged inside the compressible material, the air bags are detachably connected with a micro air pump through a gas pipeline, the micro air pump can be used for air extraction and inflation of the air bags, when the display control unit is mounted on the bearing, the air bags can be extracted by the micro air pump, so that the compressible material is fully compressed, the friction between the decorative middle frame, the compressible material and the display control unit is increased, and the assembly is more firm; when disassembly is needed, the air bags can be inflated by the micro air pump, so that the compressible material is expanded, thereby overcoming the adsorption force of the electromagnet, and the display control unit and the decorative middle frame are conveniently disassembled.

[0033] The seat 1 is firmly fixed on the wall, when the display control unit 5 and the decorative middle frame 3 are installed on the seat 1, the magnets on the seat 1 and the magnets on the display control unit 5 are closely attracted, the compressible material 4 is compressed under the action of strong magnetic force to generate friction force to limit the radial displacement of the decorative middle frame 3, at the same time, the positioning column 10 is inserted into the positioning hole 11 to limit the radial displacement of the display control unit 5.

[0034] When the thickness of the decorative middle frame 3 increases, the fixed magnet 2 on the connecting boss 8 and the fixed magnet 2 of the bearing 1 cannot be in contact due to the increase of the thickness of the decorative middle frame 3 when the display control unit 5 and the decorative middle frame 3 are installed on the bearing 1, the suction force is small, the variable distance magnet 6 can protrude from the plane of the connecting boss 8 by the action of the spring 12, so as to be close to the magnet of the bearing 1, and the structure is reliable.

[0035] Specifically, the spring 12 is provided with a locking device, a first switch for controlling the locking device is arranged on the display control unit 5, the locking device makes the spring 12 in a compressed state and makes the variable distance magnet 6 flush with the fixed magnet 2, when the thickness of the decorative middle frame 3 increases, the locking device is opened through the first switch, the spring 12 is elongated to make the variable distance magnet 6 axially displace, protrude from the plane of the connecting boss 8, make the magnet distance smaller, increase the magnetic force, and increase the stability of the structure.

[0036] Embodiment

[0037] The difference from embodiment 2 is that the spring 12 is in a free state in general, at this time the variable distance magnet 6 protrudes from the plane of the connecting boss 8 by a distance, when the display control unit 5 is installed on the bearing 1, the spring 12 is compressed, the variable distance magnet 6 is adsorbed with the corresponding fixed magnet, when the thickness of the decorative middle frame 3 increases, the distance between the fixed magnets 2 is larger, the magnetic force is smaller, at this time, because the spring 12 has a certain amount of expansion, the thicker the decorative middle frame 3 is, the smaller the compression amount of the spring 12 is, so that the variable distance magnet 6 can adapt to the middle frame 3 of different thicknesses.

[0038] Specifically, the fixed magnet 2 and the variable distance magnet 6 are both electromagnets, the spring 12 is internally provided with a sliding rheostat, and the movable end of the spring 12 is fixedly connected with the sliding sheet of the sliding rheostat, the sliding rheostat is electrically connected with the electromagnet, when the display control unit 5 is installed on the bearing 1, the spring 12 is compressed, the sliding sheet moves with the movable end of the spring 12, so as to change the length of the resistance wire connected to the circuit, with the increase of the compression amount of the spring 12, the length of the resistance wire connected to the circuit decreases, the current increases, and the magnetic force of the electromagnet increases, thereby enhancing the firmness of the installation between the display control unit 5, the decorative middle frame 3 and the bearing 1.

[0039] Example 4. On the basis of Example 2, a micro air pump is provided in the support 1, a plurality of air holes are provided on the panel of the support 1, and a second switch electrically connected to the micro air pump is provided on the display control unit 5. The micro air pump can be used to evacuate and inflate the space between the support 1, the decorative middle frame 3 and the display control unit 5. When the thickness of the decorative middle frame 3 increases, the locking device is opened by the first switch, and the spring 12 is extended to cause the variable-spacing magnet 6 to axially displace, protrude from the plane of the connecting boss 8, and be adsorbed by its corresponding fixed magnet; in order to further improve the firmness of the assembly, the micro air pump is opened by the second switch on the display control unit 5, and the area between the support 1, the decorative middle frame 3 and the display control unit 5 is evacuated through the air holes, and the area between the three is in a negative pressure state, so that the support 1, the decorative middle frame 3 and the display control unit 5 are assembled more firmly. When disassembly is required, the micro air pump is controlled by the second switch to inflate the area between the three to restore the internal air pressure, which facilitates disassembly.

[0040] Example 5. On the basis of Example 4, a plurality of airbags are provided inside the compressible material 4. The airbags are detachably connected to a micro air pump through a gas pipeline. The micro air pump can be used to evacuate and inflate the airbags. When the display control unit 5 is installed on the support 1, the airbags can be evacuated by the micro air pump, so that the compressible material 4 is fully compressed, thereby increasing the friction between the decorative middle frame 3, the compressible material 4, and the display control unit 5, making the assembly more secure; when disassembly is required, the airbags can be inflated by the micro air pump to expand the compressible material 4, thereby overcoming the adsorption force of the electromagnet, making it convenient to disassemble the display control unit 5 and the decorative middle frame 3.
