[0075] As shown in the figures, Figures 1 to 17 The present application provides a heat pump water heater 1, comprising a box 10 and a wire controller assembly 70, the box 10 is internally formed with a containing cavity; the wire controller assembly 70 comprises a mounting seat 72 and a wire controller 73, the mounting seat 72 is reversibly connected with the box 10, and the wire controller 73 is mounted on one side of the mounting seat 72 along the reversing direction of the mounting seat 72; wherein the mounting seat 72 has a first position and a second position on the reversing path, at the first position, the mounting seat 72 is buckled on the outer side of the box 10, and the wire controller 73 is located between the mounting seat 72 and the box 10 along the reversing direction of the mounting seat 72, at the second position, a space for user operation is formed between the wire controller 73 and the outer side of the box 10.
[0076] It can be seen that the heat pump water heater 1 reversibly installs the wire controller 73 on the mounting seat 72, reversibly connects the mounting seat 72 with the box 10, reverses the mounting seat 72 to be buckled on the outer side of the box 10 when not in use, so that the wire controller 73 is located between the outer side of the box 10 and the mounting seat 72, and then the wire controller 73 is wrapped by the box 10 and the mounting seat 72, thereby protecting the wire controller 73, reducing the time of the wire controller 73 being irradiated by sunlight and polluted by rain and dust, and improving the service life of the wire controller 73. When the wire controller 73 needs to be operated, the mounting seat 72 is reversed, and the mounting seat 72 is arranged at an angle with the outer side of the box 10, at this time, a certain operation space is formed between the wire controller 73 and the outer side of the box 10, which is convenient for the user to operate the wire controller 73.
[0077] Exemplarily, the heat pump water heater 1 of the present application can be a heat pump water heater 1 for a swimming pool, which is used to heat the water in the swimming pool by heat exchange, so as to keep the water in the swimming pool at a certain temperature and improve the comfort of swimming for users. The heat pump water heater 1 can also be other heat pump water heaters 1, which are usually arranged outdoors and need to protect the wire controller 73 to reduce the aging damage caused by long-term exposure of the wire controller 73. Specifically, the heat pump water heater 1 has a box body 10, which can be assembled by a plurality of plate members and can be a cuboid or a cylindrical structure. The box body 10 forms an accommodating cavity inside, which is used to install a first heat exchanger 20, a second heat exchanger 30, a compressor 40, a fan assembly 60 and an electric control box assembly 50. The first heat exchanger 20 and the compressor 40 form a heating cycle, the fan assembly 60 dissipates heat for the heating cycle, and the swimming pool water exchanges heat with the heating cycle through the second heat exchanger 30, so that the swimming pool water can be kept at a constant temperature. The wire controller assembly 70 is electrically connected with the electric control box assembly 50, and the electric control box assembly 50 is electrically connected with the compressor 40, the fan assembly 60 and various sensors. Users can control the heat pump water heater 1 through the wire controller assembly 70. The wire controller assembly 70 includes a wire controller 73 of a wire controller main body. The wire controller 73 is generally in the shape of a flat box, and a wire control element is arranged inside. The wire control element is electrically connected with the electric control box assembly 50 through a wire harness or directly electrically connected with other electric elements in the box body 10. The mounting seat 72 can be generally in the shape of a plate and can be a rectangular plate or a trapezoidal plate. The wire controller 73 can be installed on the mounting seat 72 through fixing structures such as buckles and bolts. The mounting seat 72 can be flip-connected with the box body 10 through a rotating shaft. For example, a rotating shaft is arranged at the edge of the mounting seat 72, and the rotating shaft is inserted into a rotating hole on the box body 10 to realize flip-connection of the mounting seat 72 with the box body 10. The axis direction of the rotating hole needs to be parallel to the outer surface of the box body 10 and parallel to the mounting seat 72. The flip axis of the mounting seat 72 can be arranged parallel to the height direction of the box body 10, so that the mounting seat 72 can be horizontally flipped. This arrangement enables the mounting seat 72 to be buckled to the box body 10 at the first position to protect the wire controller 73 and horizontally flipped open at the second position. The wire controller 73 is generally parallel to the height direction of the box body 10, and users can observe and operate the wire controller 73 from a horizontal angle. The flip axis of the mounting seat 72 can be arranged perpendicular to the height direction of the box body 10, so that the mounting seat 72 can be vertically flipped. This arrangement enables the mounting seat 72 to be buckled to the box body 10 at the first position to protect the wire controller 73 and vertically flipped open at the second position. The wire controller 73 is generally perpendicular to the height direction of the box body 10, and users can observe and operate the wire controller 73 from an angle from top to bottom, which is more convenient and comfortable. In addition, to make the mounting seat 72 more tightly buckled to the box body 10, a recessed part can be arranged on the box body 10, so that the mounting seat 72 can be embedded into the recessed part at the first position or the wire controller 73 on the mounting seat 72 can be embedded into the recessed part, to realize tight buckling.
[0078] AsFigure 1 、 4 、5 and 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the overturning axis of the mounting seat 72 is perpendicular to the height direction of the box body 10, when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the overturning axis of the mounting seat 72 is located at the bottom end of the mounting seat 72 along the height direction of the box body 10, and when the mounting seat 72 is in the second position, the wire controller 73 is located at the top end of the mounting seat 72 along the height direction of the box body 10.
[0079] It can be seen that by setting the overturning axis of the mounting seat 72 perpendicular to the height direction of the box body 10, when the wire controller 73 is not used, the mounting seat 72 can be overturned upward, so that the mounting seat 72 is buckled on the outside of the box body 10, and the wire controller 73 is protected between the mounting seat 72 and the box body 10, reducing the case that the wire controller 73 is exposed to the external environment for a long time. When the wire controller 73 needs to be operated, the mounting seat 72 is opened downward by a certain angle, and the wire controller 73 is exposed, at this time, the wire controller 73 can be manually operated from the space between the wire controller 73 and the box body 10, and the operation angle of the wire controller 73 is from top to bottom, which conforms to the ergonomics, and the user experience is better.
[0080] Exemplarily, an axial direction perpendicular to the height direction of the box body 10 can be provided, and the mounting seat 72 and the box body 10 are overturned and connected through the shaft, at this time, when the mounting seat 72 is overturned, the overturning direction of the mounting seat 72 is substantially consistent with the height direction of the box body 10, that is, the mounting seat 72 can be overturned in the vertical direction. In order to facilitate the operation of the wire controller 73 after the mounting seat 72 is opened, the wire controller 73 needs to be arranged at the top end after the mounting seat 72 is opened.
[0081] As shown in Figure 1 、 4 , 9 and 10, in some embodiments of the present application, the outside of the box body 10 is provided with a containing groove 711, and at least part of the wire controller 73 is located in the containing groove 711 when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position.
[0082] It can be seen that the containing groove 711 can be arranged on the outside of the box body 10 to accommodate the wire controller 73, so that the wire controller 73 is embedded into the containing groove 711 when the mounting seat 72 is buckled on the outside of the box body 10, further improving the protection of the wire controller 73, and also making the outer surface of the box body 10 more flat and improving the aesthetics.
[0083] Exemplarily, the containing groove 711 can be punched or punched on the plate of the box body 10, or a hole can be opened on the box body 10 and embedded on the box body 10 through other solid structures, and the containing groove 711 is arranged on the solid structure. The shape and depth of the containing groove 711 can be adapted to the shape and thickness of the wire controller 73, and the containing groove 711 can also be expanded to adapt to the shape of the mounting seat 72, so that the mounting seat 72 can also be embedded in the containing groove 711.
[0084] As Figures 1 to 11 shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the box 10 comprises:
[0085] The top frame 13 is annular, and a receiving cavity is formed in the top frame 13. The top frame 13 is provided with a wire control mounting port 1311 which communicates with the receiving cavity.
[0086] The fixing seat 71 is arranged in the wire control mounting port 1311 and connected with the top frame 13. The fixing seat 71 is provided with a receiving groove 711 on the side away from the receiving cavity. The mounting seat 72 is reversibly connected with the fixing seat 71. When the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the mounting seat 72 closes the receiving groove 711.
[0087] It can be seen that the wire control mounting port 1311 is embedded with the fixing seat 71, and the receiving groove 711 is arranged on the fixing seat 71, so that the mounting seat 72 can be reversibly connected with the fixing seat 71. The structure of the mounting seat 72 and the fixing seat 71 can be realized by the injection molding process. The receiving groove 711 arranged on the fixing seat 71 can protect the wire controller 73. The mounting seat 72 closes the receiving groove 711 in the state of being buckled to the box 10, which further improves the sealing protection of the wire controller 73.
[0088] Exemplarily, the box 10 can comprise the top frame 13 and the support plate 11. Both the top frame 13 and the support plate 11 extend annularly. The support plate 11 is located below the top frame 13. The space surrounded by the top frame 13 and the space surrounded by the support plate 11 together form a receiving cavity. The fan assembly 60 can be installed in the top frame 13. The first heat exchanger 20, the second heat exchanger 30, the compressor 40, etc. can be installed in the support plate 11. The wire control mounting port 1311 can be arranged on the top frame 13. The wire control mounting port 1311 can be rectangular or trapezoidal, and its size and shape are matched with the mounting seat 72. The fixing seat 71 can be connected with the top frame 13 through a buckle or a bolt, etc. The fixing seat 71 can be a basin-shaped structure with a rectangular or trapezoidal cross section. The fixing seat 71 is embedded and installed in the wire control mounting port 1311. The mounting seat 72 is reversibly connected with the fixing seat 71 through a rotating shaft. The wire controller 73 is matched with the shape of the receiving groove 711. When the mounting seat 72 is in the first state, the wire controller 73 is located in the receiving groove 711. The projection of the mounting seat 72 along the depth direction of the receiving groove 711 covers the whole projection of the receiving groove 711 along its own depth direction, so that the mounting seat 72 can completely close the receiving groove 711 to protect the wire controller 73 in the closed space.
[0089] As Figures 5 to 11As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the side of the wire controller 73 away from the mounting seat 72 is provided with an operation panel 7311, and the mounting seat 72 is provided with a first limiting portion 725. When the mounting seat 72 is in the second position, the operation panel 7311 is perpendicular to the height direction of the box 10, and the fixing seat 71 abuts against the first limiting portion 725 to limit the downward overturning of the mounting seat 72 along the height direction of the box 10.
[0090] As can be seen, by providing the first limiting portion 725 on the mounting seat 72, when the mounting seat 72 is in the second position, the first limiting portion 725 abuts against the fixing seat 71, so that the locking of the mounting seat 72 when overturned to a preset angle is achieved. For example, when the mounting seat 72 is overturned by 90°, the first limiting portion 725 abuts against the fixing seat 71 to limit the overturning of the mounting seat 72 and keep it in the position of 90° overturning. At this time, the operation panel 7311 is perpendicular to the height direction of the box 10, i.e., perpendicular to the horizontal direction, so that the operation panel 7311 can be operated from top to bottom, and the operation angle is more comfortable.
[0091] For example, the side of the wire controller 73 away from the mounting seat 72 can be provided with a touch panel or an operation panel 7311 with physical buttons such as rotary knobs, and the mounting seat 72 can be provided with a protruding first limiting portion 725. The first limiting portion 725 is located at the overturning axis of the mounting seat 72. When the mounting seat 72 is overturned to a preset angle, the top side of the first limiting portion 725 abuts against the bottom side of the fixing seat 71 along the height direction of the box 10. At this time, the mounting seat 72 cannot continue to be overturned downward and is kept at the preset angle, so that the operation panel 7311 is kept at the preset position for user operation.
[0092] As shown, Figures 5 to 11 In some embodiments of the present application, the fixing seat 71 is provided with a downwardly open notch 7131 along the height direction of the box 10. The wire controller assembly 70 further includes a resilient buffer member arranged in the notch 7131. The resilient buffer member is mounted on the first limiting portion 725 and / or the fixing seat 71. When the mounting seat 72 is in the second position, at least part of the first limiting portion 725 is located in the notch 7131 and in contact with the resilient buffer member.
[0093] As can be seen, by providing the downwardly open notch 7131 on the fixing seat 71, the first limiting portion 725 can be clamped in the notch 7131, so as to improve the positional stability of the first limiting portion 725 when abutting against the fixing seat 71. Furthermore, the resilient buffer member is arranged in the notch 7131. When the mounting seat 72 is overturned, the resilient buffer member can buffer the first limiting portion 725 when overturned to the second position, so as to reduce the impact strength of the first limiting portion 725 against the fixing seat 71, thereby improving the service life of the fixing seat 71 and the first limiting portion 725.
[0094] Exemplarily, the bottom side of the fixing seat 71 is reversely connected with one side of the mounting seat 72, and the bottom side of the fixing seat 71 is provided with an open notch 7131 which can be rectangular or trapezoidal, and a plurality of notches 7131 can be arranged along the reverse axis, and the mounting seat 72 is also provided with a plurality of first limiting portions 725, so that the mounting seat 72 abuts against the fixing seat 71 at multiple positions in the direction of the reverse axis, and the overall structure is more smooth in stress. In addition, the elastic buffer can be a sheet-shaped structure of silica gel or plastic, which is fixed in the notch 7131 by bonding or clamping, and can also be fixed on the first limiting portion 725.
[0095] As shown in FIGS. Figure 5 , 7 and 9, in some embodiments of the present application, the fixing seat 71 comprises:
[0096] a bottom plate 712, the bottom plate 712 is installed on the cabinet 10 and located in the line control mounting port 1311, the bottom plate 712 is arranged in parallel with the height direction of the cabinet 10;
[0097] two side plates 713, the two side plates 713 are oppositely arranged along a first direction and connected with the bottom plate 712, the first direction is perpendicular to the height direction of the cabinet 10, and a containing groove 711 is formed between the bottom plate 712 and the two side plates 713, and the bottom end of the side plate 713 along the height direction of the cabinet 10 is provided with a notch 7131.
[0098] It can be seen that the containing groove 711 is formed between the bottom plate 712 and the two side plates 713 on both sides, the bottom plate 712 constitutes the main body of the fixing seat 71, the bottom plate 712 can protect the line controller 73 on the inner side of the line controller 73, reduce the influence of the high temperature inside the heat pump water heater 1 on the line controller 73, the side plate 713 can provide the structure of the rotational connection between the fixing seat 71 and the mounting seat 72, and the side plate 713 can protect the side of the line controller 73, reduce the adverse effects of the external environment on the line controller 73. The bottom side of the side plate 713 can also be conveniently provided with the notch 7131, so that the first limiting portion 725 can be clamped in the notch 7131, the notch 7131 limits the first limiting portion 725, and the stability of the mounting seat 72 in the first position is improved.
[0099] Exemplarily, the bottom plate 712 can be a rectangular or trapezoidal plate structure matched with the line control mounting port 1311, the side plate 713 can be bent or integrally formed by injection molding from the two side edges of the bottom plate 712, the side plate 713 extends along the height direction of the cabinet 10 and is connected perpendicularly with the bottom plate 712, and the bottom side of the side plate 713 along the height direction of the cabinet 10 can be provided with a rectangular or trapezoidal notch 7131, so that the first limiting portion 725 extending radially along the shaft of the mounting seat 72 on the mounting seat 72 can be clamped into the notch 7131 when the mounting seat 72 is rotated to the first position.
[0100] In addition, side panels 713 can also be provided on the top side of the bottom panel 712 along the height direction of the box body 10, that is, three side panels 713 are sequentially connected to form a U-shaped extension to strengthen the protection of the wired controller 73 in all directions. A locking structure 74, such as a magnet or elastic snap, can be provided on the side panels 713 located on the top side of the bottom panel 712. The locking structure 74, such as a magnet or elastic snap, can be located on opposite sides of the bottom panel 712 along the height direction of the box body 10 from the rotation axis of the mounting base 72, thereby locking the mounting base 72 in the first position.
[0101] like Figure 6 、 9 As shown in FIG. 11 , in some embodiments of the present invention, the mounting base 72 includes:
[0102] Mounting plate 721;
[0103] The rotating part 722, the rotating part 722 and the wire controller 73 are all arranged on the same plate surface of the mounting plate 721, the two first limiting parts 725 are arranged on the mounting plate 721 at intervals along the first direction, the rotating part 722 is located between the two first limiting parts 725 and is located in the accommodating groove 711, and the opposite ends of the rotating part 722 along the first direction are respectively rotatably connected to the two side plates 713.
[0104] It can be seen that the wire controller 73 and the rotating part 722 are fixed by setting the mounting plate 721. The rotating part 722 can refer to the common rotating connection structure to rotatably connect the mounting plate 721 and the side plate 713 of the plate structure, and the rotating part 722 is located in the accommodating groove 711, so that the wire controller 73 can enter the accommodating groove 711 for protection when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position.
[0105] For example, the mounting plate 721 can be a rectangular plate, and a rotating portion 722 is provided on the side plate 713 of the mounting plate 721 where the wired controller 73 is provided. The rotating portion 722 can include an axis fixing structure 7221 and a long axis extending along a first direction. The long axis is provided through the axis fixing structure 7221, and the two ends of the long axis are respectively plugged into the sides of the two side plates 713 facing the receiving groove 711, thereby achieving a reversible connection between the mounting plate 721 and the fixing seat 71. The rotating portion 722 can also be in the form of two short axis cooperating with two axis fixing structures 7221 spaced apart along the first direction. The two short axis are respectively provided through the two axis fixing structures 7221 and respectively plugged into the sides of the two side plates 713 facing the receiving groove 711, thereby also achieving a reversible connection between the mounting plate 721 and the fixing seat 71.
[0106] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the projection of the fixing seat 71 along the axial direction of the remote control mounting opening 1311 all falls into the projection of the mounting seat 72 along the axial direction of the remote control mounting opening 1311.
[0107] It can be seen that by setting the size of the mounting seat 72 to be larger than the size of the fixing seat 71, the mounting seat 72 can completely shield the fixing seat 71 in the axial direction of the wire control mounting port 1311, so that the appearance of the wire control assembly 70 is more neat and beautiful.
[0108] Exemplarily, the fixing seat 71 can be adapted to the shape of the wire control mounting port 1311, and there is a certain gap between the outer edge of the fixing seat 71 and the wire control mounting port 1311. At this time, the mounting seat 72 can be set to have a shape that is adapted to the shape of the wire control mounting port 1311, and the outer edge profile of the mounting seat 72 can surround the outer edge profile of the fixing seat 71. The outer edge profile of the mounting seat 72 can be set such that when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the outer edge profile of the mounting seat 72 is located in the gap between the outer edge of the fixing seat 71 and the wire control mounting port 1311, or the outer edge profile of the mounting seat 72 also surrounds the wire control mounting port 1311. Thus, the mounting seat 72 can shield part of the space between the fixing seat 71 and the wire control mounting port 1311 while shielding the fixing seat 71, or completely shield the wire control mounting port 1311, achieving a more neat overall appearance.
[0109] As shown in Figures 1 to 5 some embodiments of the present application, the mounting seat 72 has a shape that is adapted to the shape of the wire control mounting port 1311, and the mounting seat 72 completely encloses the wire control mounting port 1311 when in the first position.
[0110] It can be seen that by setting the size of the mounting seat 72 to be larger than the size of the fixing seat 71, the mounting seat 72 can completely shield the fixing seat 71 in the axial direction of the wire control mounting port 1311, so that the appearance of the wire control assembly 70 is more neat and beautiful.
[0111] Exemplarily, the mounting seat 72 can have a rectangular or trapezoidal shape, and the outer profile of the mounting seat 72 can be larger than the profile of the wire control mounting port 1311, so that the mounting seat 72 can completely cover the wire control mounting port 1311 when in the first position, achieving that the wire control 73 is in a relatively closed space. The mounting seat 72 can also have an outer profile that is consistent with the profile of the wire control mounting port 1311, so that the mounting seat 72 can be embedded into the wire control mounting port 1311 when in the first position, plugging the wire control mounting port 1311, and also achieving that the wire control 73 is in a relatively closed space to protect the wire control 73.
[0112] As shown in Figure 7 and 8As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the top frame 13 has a mounting lug 1312, at least part of the mounting lug 1312 extends into the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, the fixing seat 71 is mounted on the mounting lug 1312, and a sealing groove 724 is formed between the hole wall of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 and the outer edge of the fixing seat 71, and the edge of the mounting seat 72 is provided with a sealing flange 723, and at least part of the sealing flange 723 is located in the sealing groove 724 when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position.
[0113] It can be seen that, by arranging the mounting lug 1312 in the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, the fixing seat 71 can be mounted in the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 or have a part coinciding with the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 in the axial direction of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, which facilitates the turning of the mounting seat 72 to the first position and the sending of the drive-by-wire controller 73 from the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 into the containing groove 711 on the fixing seat 71 to externally protect the drive-by-wire controller 73. In order to improve the sealing between the opposite surfaces of the mounting seat 72 and the fixing seat 71, a groove protruding structure can be arranged, i.e., the sealing groove 724 cooperates with the sealing flange 723 to strengthen the sealing of the containing groove 711.
[0114] For example, two mounting lugs 1312 can be arranged in the first direction, for example, a part of the fixing seat 71 located in the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 is arranged in multiple parts along the circumferential direction of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 through a turning process, and buckles or bolt holes are arranged on the mounting lugs 1312 to facilitate the fixing of the fixing seat 71 and the mounting lugs 1312. The fixing seat 71 can not completely block the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, and there is a certain gap between the fixing seat 71 and the hole wall of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 to form the sealing groove 724, which can extend in a ring shape, i.e., the fixing seat 71 and the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 both have a gap to form a ring-shaped sealing groove 724, or the fixing seat 71 and the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 form a U-shaped extending sealing groove 724 or a radial extending sealing groove 724. The edge of the mounting seat 72 can be formed into a sealing flange 723 protruding relative to the main body part of the mounting seat 72 through a turning process, and the extension of the sealing flange 723 matches the sealing groove 724, which can be a ring-shaped sealing flange 723 or a U-shaped extending sealing flange 723. When the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the sealing flange 723 can be embedded into the sealing groove 724 to realize the reinforced sealing between the opposite surfaces of the mounting seat 72 and the fixing seat 71, thereby improving the protection of the drive-by-wire controller 73 between the mounting seat 72 and the fixing seat 71.
[0115] In addition, the edge portion of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 can also be turned inward to form an annular turned edge portion 1313 on the top frame 13, and the annular turned edge portion 1313 extends out of the mounting lug 1312 on the side of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 away from the top frame 13. In this way, a sealing groove 724 is formed between the annular turned edge portion 1313 and the annular outer edge of the fixing seat 71, and the sealing flange 723 can abut against the annular turned edge portion 1313 when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, and abut against the fixing seat 71 to strengthen the sealing at this position.
[0116] As shown in Figures 1 to 11 some embodiments of the present application, the bottom end of the fixing seat 71 is spaced apart from the bottom wall of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311 in the height direction of the cabinet 10, and a communication space 76 is formed therebetween. When the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the accommodation groove 711 communicates with the accommodation cavity through the communication space 76.
[0117] It can be seen that by spacing the bottom end of the fixing seat 71 from the bottom wall of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the accommodation groove 711 communicates with the accommodation cavity through the communication space 76, and the dust and rainwater entering the accommodation groove 711 from the gap can be discharged into the accommodation cavity through the communication space 76, so as to avoid the accumulation of dust and rainwater in the accommodation groove 711 and affect the drive-by-wire controller 73. At the same time, the communication space 76 can also dissipate heat from the drive-by-wire controller 73, so that the fan assembly 60 can discharge the hot air generated by the drive-by-wire controller 73 in the accommodation groove 711, further improving the reliability of the drive-by-wire controller 73
[0118] For example, the bottom plate 712 of the fixing seat 71 is arranged axially perpendicular to the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, the side plates 713 are arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 712 along the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, the sealing grooves 724 are formed between the side plates 713 and the hole walls of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, and the bottom end of the bottom plate 712 is not provided with side plates 713 and is spaced apart from the hole walls of the drive-by-wire mounting port 1311, so that the accommodation groove 711 is open at the bottom end of the fixing seat 71 and communicates with the accommodation cavity.
[0119] As shown in Figure 5 , 9 and 10, in some embodiments of the present application, the heat pump water heater 1 further comprises a lock catch structure 74 mounted on the fixing seat 71 and / or the mounting seat 72, the lock catch structure 74 has a first state and a second state, in the first state, the lock catch structure 74 is connected with the mounting seat 72 and the fixing seat 71 respectively, and limits the rotation of the mounting seat 72, in the second state, one of the mounting seat 72 and the fixing seat 71 is separated from the lock catch structure 74.
[0120] It can be seen that by setting the lock structure 74, the mounting seat 72 can be limited to rotate by the lock structure 74 in the first position, and be kept in the first position, so that the wire controller 73 can be fixed between the mounting seat 72 and the fixed seat 71, and be wrapped and protected by the two, reducing the case that the wire controller 73 is affected by the external environment. And the lock structure 74 can also be opened in the second state to separate the mounting seat 72 from the fixed seat 71, so that the mounting seat 72 can be flipped open, thereby the user can operate the wire controller 73.
[0121] Exemplarily, the lock structure 74 can be an elastic clamping mechanism, for example, an elastic clamping piece is arranged on the fixed seat 71, and a clamping piece is arranged on the mounting seat 72, the clamping piece is inserted into the elastic clamping piece when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, and the elastic force of the elastic clamping piece clamps the clamping piece, so that the mounting seat 72 cannot be flipped open. Under the pulling of external force, the mounting seat 72 can be pulled out of the elastic clamping piece, and the mounting seat 72 is flipped open. The lock structure 74 can also be a magnetic switch mechanism, which realizes that the mounting seat 72 is fixed to the fixed seat 71 in the first state of the lock structure 74, and realizes that the mounting seat 72 can be flipped open in the state that the external force overcomes the magnetic force.
[0122] As shown in FIGS. Figure 5 , 9 and 10, in some embodiments of the application, the mounting seat 72 is also provided with a handle 75, the handle 75 is located on the side of the mounting seat 72 away from the box body 10 in the flipping direction of the mounting seat 72 when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position, the lock structure 74 includes a first magnetic piece 741 and a second magnetic piece 742, the first magnetic piece 741 is installed on the mounting seat 72, the second magnetic piece 742 is installed on the box body 10, one of the first magnetic piece 741 and the second magnetic piece 742 has magnetism, and the other has magnetic attraction, and the first magnetic piece 741 is magnetically attached to the second magnetic piece 742 in the first position.
[0123] It can be seen that by setting the handle 75 on the mounting seat 72, the handle 75 can be a U-shaped structure or a structure with a groove, which facilitates the user to flip open or buckle the mounting seat 72 through the handle 75. And the lock structure composed of the first magnetic piece 741 and the second magnetic piece 742 can attract the mounting seat 72 to the fixed seat 71 when the mounting seat 72 is in the first position or near the first position, so as to limit the mounting seat 72 in the first position, and the mounting seat 72 can also be flipped open through the handle 75, improving the protection of the wire controller 73 when not in use.
[0124] Exemplarily, the handles 75 can be arranged on opposite sides of the mounting seat 72 respectively with the rotating part 722, so that the mounting seat 72 can be pulled away by the handles 75, the handles 75 can be U-shaped arc-shaped rod structures, and can also be handgrip structures formed by local concave of the mounting seat 72. The first magnetic attraction member 741 is arranged on the side of the mounting seat 72 away from the handle 75, and the second magnetic attraction member 742 is arranged at the corresponding position of the fixed seat 71, the first magnetic attraction member 741 can be a metal block, the second magnetic attraction member 742 can be a magnet, or the first magnetic attraction member 741 is a magnet and the second magnetic attraction member 742 is a metal block, or both of them are magnets with opposite polarities, so that when the mounting seat 72 is near the first position, the first magnetic attraction member 741 attracts the second magnetic attraction member 742, thereby buckling the mounting seat 72 to the fixed seat 71. In order to improve the connection reliability of the first magnetic attraction member 741 or the second magnetic attraction member 742, pits can be arranged on the mounting seat 72 and the fixed seat 71, the inner wall of the pit is provided with a convex point or a convex structure, so that the first magnetic attraction member 741 or the second magnetic attraction member 742 can be clamped into the pit, and the connection reliability is improved by the convex structure in the pit to avoid falling off in use.
[0125] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 some embodiments of the present application, the heat pump water heater 1 further comprises a first heat exchanger 20 and an electric control box assembly 50, both of which are installed in the containing cavity, and along the height direction of the box body 10, the first heat exchanger 20 and the electric control box assembly 50 are both located below the line controller assembly 70, the first heat exchanger 20 and the electric control box assembly 50 are connected end to end and form a ring structure around the height direction of the box body 10.
[0126] It can be seen that by connecting the first heat exchanger 20 and the electric control box assembly 50 end to end to form a ring structure, the structural strength of the whole machine is improved, and the shock resistance, durability and noise control of the whole machine are improved.
[0127] Exemplarily, the first heat exchanger 20 is a condenser of the heating cycle of the heat pump water heater 1, and the first heat exchanger 20 is substantially G-shaped. Specifically, the first heat exchanger 20 comprises a first part, a second part, a third part and a fourth part connected in sequence, the first part is arranged opposite to the third part, the second part is arranged opposite to the fourth part, and a gap 7131 space is formed between the fourth part and the first part, the gap 7131 space is located at the corner, and the electric control box assembly 50 is substantially plate-shaped or flat box-shaped. The electric control box assembly 50 is installed at the gap 7131 space, so that the electric control box assembly 50 is arranged in an area with weak ventilation, which has little effect on the ventilation and heat exchange of the whole machine, improves the efficiency of the ventilation and heat exchange of the whole machine, and thus improves the performance of the heat pump water heater 1.
[0128] As shown in Figures 12-17As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the application provides a by-wire controller assembly 70, comprising a by-wire controller 73 and a mounting base 72. The by-wire controller 73 comprises a housing 731 and a circuit board 732, the housing 731 is defined with a mounting cavity 737 having an opening, the circuit board 732 is mounted in the mounting cavity 737, and the mounting base 72 is arranged on the side of the housing 731 having the mounting cavity 737 and covers the opening. The side of the housing 731 facing the mounting base 72 is provided with a first sealing portion 7312, which is located on the outer circumferential side of the circuit board 732 and is arranged along the circumference of the housing 731, and the side of the mounting base 72 facing the housing 731 is provided with a first sealing matching portion 7261 corresponding in position to the first sealing portion 7312 and connected therewith to seal the gap between the housing 731 and the mounting base 72.
[0129] Illustratively, the housing 731 comprises a shell bottom plate and a shell side plate surrounding the circumferential side of the shell bottom plate, and the shell bottom plate is defined with the mounting cavity 737 for mounting the circuit board 732.
[0130] Illustratively, the side of the shell bottom plate facing the mounting base 72 is provided with an annular protruding rib, and the annular protruding rib and the shell bottom plate surround the mounting cavity 737.
[0131] Illustratively, the circuit board 732 is screwed to the housing 731.
[0132] Illustratively, the first sealing portion 7312 can be a sealing ring, the first sealing matching portion 7261 can be a first waterproof groove, and a second waterproof groove can also be arranged on the housing 731, and the sealing ring is partially embedded in the first waterproof groove and partially embedded in the second waterproof groove.
[0133] As can be seen, by arranging the first sealing portion 7312 on the side of the housing 731 of the by-wire controller 73 having the mounting cavity 737 and arranging the first sealing matching portion 7261 on the side of the mounting base 72 facing the housing 731 and corresponding in position to the first sealing portion 7312 and connected therewith, when the circuit board 732 is mounted in the mounting cavity 737 of the housing 731, the mounting base 72 is buckled to the side of the housing 731 having the mounting cavity 737 to cover the opening, thereby packaging the circuit board 732 inside the by-wire controller 73, and since the first sealing portion 7312 and the first sealing matching portion 7261 are both arranged along the outer circumferential side of the circuit board 732 and connected with the second sealing portion 7313, the sealing effect is achieved, thereby reducing the risk of external moisture entering the mounting cavity 737 and causing condensate water to accumulate and cause the circuit board 732 to easily short circuit or catch fire, improving the use safety of the by-wire controller assembly 70 and prolonging the service life of the by-wire controller assembly 70.
[0134] In some embodiments of the present application, one of the first sealing part 7312 and the first sealing matching part 7261 comprises a first sealing groove, and the other comprises a first sealing protrusion which is shaped to fit the first sealing groove and is inserted into the first sealing groove.
[0135] As can be seen, the first sealing part 7312 is a first sealing groove which is arranged around the outer periphery of the circuit board 732, and the first sealing matching part 7261 is a first sealing protrusion which is shaped to fit the first sealing groove, or the first sealing part 7312 is a first sealing protrusion which is arranged around the outer periphery of the circuit board 732, and the first sealing matching part 7261 is a first sealing groove which is shaped to fit the first sealing protrusion. By inserting the first sealing protrusion into the first sealing groove, the mounting gap between the sealing shell 731 and the mounting seat 72 can be sealed, thereby reducing the risk of water vapor entering the inside of the line controller 73 from the outside.
[0136] In some embodiments of the present application, a sealing glue layer is further coated between the first limiting protrusion and the first sealing groove.
[0137] In some embodiments of the present application, the first sealing part 7312 is a first sealing groove, and the first sealing groove has oppositely arranged first and second guide inclined surfaces 73121 and 73122, and the distance between the first and second guide inclined surfaces 73121 and 73122 gradually decreases in the direction from the mounting seat 72 to the sealing shell 731.
[0138] For example, the cross-sectional shape of the first sealing groove is trapezoidal, the first sealing groove has oppositely arranged first and second guide inclined surfaces 73121 and 73122, and the distance between the first and second guide inclined surfaces 73121 and 73122 gradually decreases in the direction from the mounting seat 72 to the sealing shell 731, and the shape of the first sealing protrusion is shaped to fit the first sealing protrusion, so that the first sealing protrusion can move along the first and second guide inclined surfaces 73121 and 73122 during insertion into the first sealing groove until it is inserted into the first sealing groove, thereby sealing the mounting gap between the sealing shell 731 and the mounting seat 72 and improving the assembly efficiency of the product.
[0139] In some embodiments of the present application, the sealing shell 731 further comprises a second sealing part 7313 on the side facing the mounting seat 72, the second sealing part 7313 extends along the circumference of the sealing shell 731 and is located between the first sealing part 7312 and the circuit board 732, and the mounting seat 72 further comprises a second sealing matching part 7262 on the side facing the sealing shell 731, the position of the second sealing matching part 7262 corresponds to the position of the second sealing part 7313, and the second sealing matching part 7262 is connected to the second sealing part 7313 in cooperation.
[0140] Exemplarily, the annular convex rib provided by the bottom plate of the shell is formed with a second sealing portion 7313 on the side facing the mounting base 72.
[0141] It can be seen that, by further providing the second sealing portion 7313 on the side of the shell 731 facing the mounting base 72, the second sealing portion 7313 is also annularly arranged on the outer circumferential side of the circuit board 732, and the second sealing portion 7313 is arranged between the circuit board 732 and the first sealing portion 7312. In addition, by providing the second sealing matching portion 7262 corresponding to the position of the second sealing portion 7313 on the side of the mounting base 72 facing the shell 731, the second sealing portion 7313 is sealingly connected with the second sealing matching portion 7262, thereby achieving the effect of double-layer sealing and further achieving the sealing effect on the circuit board 732, so as to further reduce the risk of short circuit or fire of the circuit board 732 caused by external water vapor entering the mounting cavity 737.
