Abstract
The application relates to a water tank, a water supply structure and an electric appliance. The water tank is detachably installed on a main shell, and comprises a main tank body, a decorative cover installed on one side of the main tank body, and a locking piece movably installed between the main tank body and the decorative cover in a first direction. The locking piece can be switched between a locking position connected with the main shell and an unlocking position separated from the main shell. The decorative cover has a communication port for exposing the locking piece, and the decorative cover covers at least part of the locking piece when the locking piece is in the locking position. The water tank is locked and unlocked relative to the main shell through reciprocating movement of the locking piece. Since the locking piece is partially exposed on the decorative cover through the communication port, the operator can touch and operate the locking piece without any influence. Meanwhile, the decorative cover shields the locking piece to some extent, so that the locking piece is prevented from being completely exposed on the appearance surface of the water supply structure, and the appearance requirement of the water supply structure is met.
