[0027] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] The orientations mentioned in this specification are based on the orientations of a water receiving device of the present invention when it is working normally, and do not limit the orientations during storage and transportation. They only represent relative positional relationships, not absolute positional relationships.

[0029] Embodiment 1:

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown together, a water receiving device includes a water receiving bucket bracket 1 fixed on a display cabinet for supporting a water bucket, a mounting hole 11 is opened on the water receiving bucket bracket 1 at the bottom position of the water bucket, a water receiving box 2 is detachably installed in the mounting hole 11, and the water receiving box 2 is located at the bottom of the condensed water pipe; the upper surface of the water receiving box 2 does not protrude from the supporting surface of the water receiving bucket bracket 1.

[0031] Specifically, the mounting hole 11 is a sinking hole, and the water receiving box 2 is embedded in the sinking hole; the water receiving box 2 includes a box body with an open top, and a convex edge is arranged around the box body. The box body is inserted into the central hole of the sinking hole and the convex edge is supported on the step of the sinking hole. This design allows the water receiving box 2 to be installed stably, and at the same time ensures that the upper surface of the water receiving box 2 is not higher than the supporting surface of the water receiving bucket bracket 1, and does not affect the placement of the bucket.

[0032] An auxiliary hole 12 connected to the center hole is provided on the step of the sink hole; when the convex edge is supported on the step of the sink hole, the auxiliary hole 12 will not be covered by the convex edge. When the water receiving box 2 needs to be removed from the mounting hole 11, a finger is inserted into the auxiliary hole 12, and then the convex edge of the water receiving box 2 is pinched, so that the water receiving box 2 can be removed smoothly. One or two auxiliary holes 12 can be provided. If two are provided, the two auxiliary holes 12 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the water receiving box 2.

[0033] Embodiment 2:

[0034] like Figure 3 - Figure 7 As shown in the figure, because there is a certain height difference between the water receiving box 2 and the condensed water pipe, and the depth of the water receiving box 2 is relatively shallow, when the condensed water drips into the water receiving box 2, splashes will be generated, thereby causing a large amount of water stains on the water receiving bucket bracket 1. Therefore, in order to avoid splashes, this embodiment is further improved on the basis of the first embodiment.

[0035] A splash cover 3 is detachably mounted at the top opening of the box body, and the upper surface of the splash cover 3 does not protrude from the supporting surface of the water receiving bucket bracket 1; a water receiving port 31 is arranged at the center of the splash cover 3, and a funnel tube 32 extending toward the bottom of the box body is arranged at the bottom of the water receiving port 31, and the bottom of the funnel tube 32 does not contact the bottom of the box body. The size of the water receiving port 31 is as large as possible to obtain a larger water receiving area; and the setting of the funnel tube 32 can collect the condensed water dripping from above, and at the same time block the water droplets generated by the splashing of the condensed water to prevent it from splashing onto the water receiving bucket bracket 1.

[0036] The splash cover 3 is detachably mounted at the top opening of the box body, and its installation method can be bolted. In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the disassembly and installation of the splash cover 3, a block 21 extending into the box body is provided on the inner side wall of the box body, and the splash cover 3 is inserted into the inner cavity of the box body and supported on the block 21; in order to improve the strength and supporting force of the block 21, the block 21 in this embodiment is a closed structure that surrounds the side wall of the top opening of the box body. The bottom of the splash cover 3 is provided with a barb 33 extending into the box body and hooked on the block 21, and the barb 33 can be deformed under pressure to hook or fall out of the block 21. This buckle connection method is simple and reliable, and is convenient for user operation. There are multiple barbs 33 around the splash cover 3, and two barbs 33 are provided in this embodiment, which are respectively located at the front and back sides of the splash cover 3.

[0037] The barb 33 includes a column 331 fixed at the bottom of the splash cover 3 and extending downward, and a limit head 332 fixed at the bottom of the column 331 and protruding toward the outside of the splash cover 3. The column 331 abuts against the block 21 and its length is equal to the upper and lower widths of the block 21. The limit head 332 extends into the bottom of the block 21, and the block 21 is clamped between the limit head 332 and the splash cover 3.

[0038] In order to improve the durability and operability of the barb 33, the upper and lower sides of the limit head 332 are respectively provided with arc heads, and the design of the arc heads can reduce the friction and resistance of the barb 33 when hooking or escaping from the block 21, thereby extending the service life. When the splash cover 3 is pressed downward, the arc head contacts the block 21 and forms an interaction force, the arc head pushes the column 331 to deform, the arc head avoids the block 21, and after passing through the block 21, the arc head resets and rests against the bottom of the block 21, thereby completing the hooking; when the splash cover 3 needs to be removed, the splash cover 3 is pulled upward, the arc head contacts the block 21 and forms an interaction force, the arc head pushes the column 331 to deform, the arc head avoids the block 21, and after passing through the block 21, the splash cover 3 is removed.

[0039] In order to avoid the splash cover 3 from being loosened due to frequent removal of the splash cover 3 during drainage, a drainage channel 22 is provided on one side of the top of the box body, and the drainage channel 22 connects the inside of the box body with the outside; when the box body is tilted, the water in the box body can be discharged from the drainage channel 22. This design allows the user to easily drain the accumulated water without removing the splash cover 3. The splash cover 3 can not only prevent the splash of condensed water, but also play a certain role in blocking water. When the water receiving box 2 is removed to dump the internal water, it can prevent the water from flowing out of the side wall of the water receiving box 2 due to the shaking of the water receiving box 2 during the process of taking the water receiving box 2.

[0040] In order to prevent the hook 33 from interfering with the drainage channel 22, the drainage channel 22 is arranged on the left or right side of the water receiving box 2 in this embodiment. With this design, when a person takes down the water receiving box 2 from the front, he can directly turn it sideways without turning his hands to pour out the condensed water in the water receiving box 2.

[0041] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
