Figure 8 The middle K direction is the direction for removing the bearing member; Fig. 9 A bottom view of a gas water heater provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the gas water heater includes a shell 1, a enclosure 3 and a bearing 4. A joint 2 is installed at the bottom of the shell 1, and a drinking water outlet mechanism 11 is arranged at the front side of the shell 1; the enclosure 3 and the shell 1 are arranged in layers in the vertical direction, and the enclosure 3 and the shell 1 are detachably connected, the enclosure 3 is used to cover the joint 2, and the front side of the enclosure 3 has a concave side wall 31; the bearing 4 is connected to the enclosure 3, and the enclosure 3 and the concave side wall 31 enclose a space for avoiding a water container, and the water outlet of the drinking water outlet mechanism 11 faces the bearing 4.

[0044] The gas water heater of the above structure is provided with a blocking member 3 under the outer shell 1. On the one hand, it can cover the protruding pipe joint 2 at the bottom of the outer shell 1 to improve the overall aesthetics of the water heater. On the other hand, the blocking member 3 is also used to fix the supporting member 4. Moreover, a space for accommodating a water container is formed between the supporting member 4 and the front concave side wall 31 of the blocking member 3. This allows a vessel with a larger diameter to be placed on the supporting member 4, and at the same time facilitates the water container to be directly opposite the water outlet of the drinking water outlet mechanism 11, thereby avoiding the situation where the user constantly has to support and adjust the mouth of the water container with his hands due to the water container being too wide. This makes it convenient for the user to fill water and improves the user experience of the water heater.

[0045] It can be explained that the drinking water outlet mechanism 11 adopts the conventional method, and the structure of the drinking water outlet mechanism 11 is no longer described in detail.

[0046] Furthermore, buttons are provided at the drinking water outlet mechanism 11, such as a switch button, a function switching button, a hot water button, a water outlet button, a water temperature adjustment button, etc., to enhance the user experience.

[0047] It can be explained that a water collecting tank is provided at the support member 4 , and a filter, such as a filter screen, is placed at the collecting port of the water collecting tank to separate and collect the excess water that overflows when receiving water.

[0048] It can be explained that the concave side wall 31 includes an inclined transition section 311 and a vertical avoidance section 312 connected to each other, and the bearing member 4 is connected to the vertical avoidance section 312 .

[0049] Furthermore, the front side of the enclosure 3 also has a vertical connecting section 313, the upper end of the vertical connecting section 313 is connected to the outer shell 1, the lower end of the vertical connecting section 313 is connected to the inclined transition section 311, and the maximum lateral spacing H1 between the vertical connecting section 313 and the vertical avoidance section 312 is 16mm-23mm.

[0050] Likewise, a transverse distance H2 between the front side wall of the housing 1 and the free end 42 of the carrier 4 is 72 mm-78 mm.

[0051] In order to prevent the bearing member 4 from tipping over, a plurality of connecting members 5 are provided, such as two, three or more. Figure 1 The number of the limiting grooves is related to the number of the connecting members 5. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, preferably, two connecting members 5 are provided and two limiting grooves are provided.

[0052] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the gas water heater also includes a connecting member 5, one end of which is fixedly connected to the socket on the front side of the enclosure 3, at least one positioning protrusion 51 is provided on the connecting member 5, and a positioning groove 41 cooperating with the positioning protrusion 51 is correspondingly provided at the bottom of the supporting member 4.

[0053] In the process of assembling the carrier 4 and the connector 5 of the gas water heater of the above structure, the carrier 4 and the connector 5 are fixed by placing the positioning protrusion 51 in the positioning groove 41, and the connector 5 is fixed to the enclosure 3 by fixing one end of the connector 5 to the jack on the front side of the enclosure 3. When the user disassembles the carrier 4 as needed, it is only necessary to take the positioning protrusion 51 out of the positioning groove 41. Similarly, when installing the carrier 4, it is only necessary to place the positioning protrusion 51 in the positioning groove 41. When disassembling or installing the carrier 4 of the gas water heater, there is no need to disassemble or install other components, which simplifies the disassembly and assembly steps and facilitates the maintenance of the carrier 4.

[0054] It can be explained that if Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the connecting member 5 is a columnar structure, and the positioning protrusion 51 is a protruding ring fixed on the side wall of the connecting member 5. Two protruding rings are provided, and the two protruding rings are arranged at an interval.

[0055] Furthermore, the connector 5 is divided into a threaded section 52 and a support section 53. The threaded section 52 is used for threaded connection with the jack. Two convex rings are arranged on the support section 53, one of which is close to the intersection of the threaded section 52 and the support section 53, and the other convex ring is for hand-held rotation. In addition, the maximum radial dimension of the convex ring arranged close to the intersection of the threaded section 52 and the support section 53 is greater than the major diameter of the threaded section 52.

[0056] The gas water heater of the above structure is connected to the threaded hole by the threaded section 52 to achieve the fixation of the connecting member 5 and the enclosure 3, and the supporting section 53 is added to support the bearing member 4 to ensure that the bearing member 4 is stably placed after installation to avoid the bearing member 4 from tipping over due to excessive torque. In addition, two convex rings are set on the supporting section 53, one of the convex rings is set close to the intersection of the threaded section 52 and the supporting section 53, and the maximum radial dimension of the convex ring set close to the intersection of the threaded section 52 and the supporting section 53 is greater than the major diameter of the threaded section 52, so as to limit the length of the threaded section 52 screwed into the enclosure 3, avoid damage to the threaded structure when it is screwed in too much, and avoid tilting of the bearing member 4 when it is screwed in too little.

[0057] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when a water container such as a water cup is placed on the bearing member 4, due to the effect of gravity, the bearing member 4 is compressed, which can easily damage the connecting member 5. The setting of the support segment 53 can improve the stress state of the connecting member 5. At the same time, the sum of the lengths between the support segment 53 and the convex ring set away from the enclosure 3 is defined as B. B should not be too long, otherwise it will easily cause a large torque, which will cause the support segment 53 to have a risk of breaking. Preferably, the value range of B is 10 to 20 mm.

[0058] For the gas water heater of the above structure, first screw the threaded section 52 into the enclosure 3 until the convex ring near the intersection of the threaded section 52 and the support section 53 contacts the enclosure 3; when installing the bearing member 4, follow the same Figure 8 In the opposite direction of the middle K direction, the positioning protrusion 51 is placed into the positioning groove 41 to complete the fixation; similarly, when removing the bearing member 4, follow the Figure 8 The carrier 4 can be taken out in the K direction shown in FIG.

[0059] It can be explained that the gas water heater provided in this embodiment has a filter element integrated in the housing 1 in order to remove impurities in tap water and achieve the purpose of healthy water use for users.

[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment, the installation form of the filter element is not specifically limited.

[0061] As one of the embodiments, the bottom of the shell 1 is also provided with a mounting hole connected to the interior of the shell 1; the gas water heater also includes a filter element and a packaging component 6, the filter element is placed inside the shell 1 at the mounting hole, and the packaging component 6 is detachably connected to the inner wall surface of the mounting hole and is used to cover the mounting hole.

[0062] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, there are multiple connectors 2, which are used as tap water inlet connector 2, gas inlet connector 2, pure water normal temperature water outlet connector 2, domestic water return connector 2, domestic water high temperature water outlet connector 2, etc., to achieve the purpose of one machine with multiple uses. At this time, multiple connectors 2 are installed on one side of the bottom of the outer shell 1; and the installation hole is located on the other side of the bottom of the outer shell 1.

[0063] The gas water heater of the above structure arranges the joint 2 and the mounting hole separately, so that when the filter element is replaced as needed, the disassembly or installation of the packaging member 6 is not interfered, thereby reducing the difficulty of disassembly and assembly.

[0064] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the temperature of the water flowing out of the purified water normal temperature water outlet joint 2 is consistent with that of the purified water high temperature water, and the difference is that the user can set up another pipeline to connect with the purified water normal temperature water outlet joint 2 to drain the normal temperature purified water to the kitchen for daily use in washing fruits and vegetables and cooking. In order to remove impurities in the water, the normal temperature purified water flows through the filter element before flowing out of the purified water normal temperature water outlet joint 2 to remove impurities, so as to achieve the purpose of healthier use for users.

[0065] Likewise, in this embodiment, the structure of the filter element is not specifically limited.

[0066] As one of the embodiments, the filter element and the packaging member 6 are integrally formed. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the filter element and the packaging member 6 are designed in a split type.

[0067] Likewise, in this embodiment, the structure of the packaging member 6 is not specifically limited.

[0068] As one of the embodiments, the packaging component 6 includes a main body 61 and a handle portion 62. The main body 61 is threadedly connected to the mounting hole. Specifically, the outer wall of the main body 61 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole, and a sealing member such as a raw tape is added at the connection; the handle portion 62 is located on the side of the main body 61 away from the shell, and an external force acts on the handle portion 62 to drive the main body 61 to rotate.

[0069] When disassembling or installing the packaging part 6 of the gas water heater with the above structure, an external force drives the handle part 62 to rotate, driving the main body 61 to rotate until the main body 61 is detached from or installed in the installation hole, without disassembling other components, simplifying the disassembly and assembly steps, and facilitating the removal and placement of the filter element and maintenance.

[0070] like Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, in the gas water heater provided in this embodiment, the outer peripheral wall of the enclosure 3 is provided with a plurality of decorative ridges, and the plurality of decorative ridges are arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction around the enclosure 3. Preferably, the decorative ridges are arranged as wavy ridges.

[0071] The gas water heater of the above structure is provided with a wave-shaped convex strip at the enclosure 3, so that the appearance of the gas water heater as a whole is beautiful and the ornamental value of the gas water heater as a whole is improved.

[0072] In the specific contents of the above-mentioned specific implementation methods, the various technical features can be combined in any non-contradictory manner. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the above-mentioned technical features are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0073] The specific contents of the above specific implementations only express several implementations of the utility model, and the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
