[0002] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the prior art, the operating component 1 of the gas water heater is generally fixed by screws 4, that is, one or more screw holes are set on the plastic operating component 1, and at the same time, a mounting hole is opened at the position where the operating component 1 needs to be installed on the metal sheet metal water heater front plate 2 of the product, and a bending structure is made to form a front plate flange 3, and a flange hole is opened on the bent edge. After the operating component 1 is installed in the mounting hole of the water heater front plate 2, the operating component 1 and the water heater front plate 2 are connected as a whole by screwing.

[0003] The structural assembly scheme of the operating component 1 of the water heater and the front panel 2 of the water heater requires multiple bending of the installation position of the front panel 2 of the water heater to form a front panel flange 3 and to open a flange hole. Sometimes, when there is not enough space on the front panel flange 3, it is even necessary to add additional sheet metal parts to facilitate fitting and fastening. The processing is difficult, the installation process is complicated and it is not conducive to realizing automated production.

[0004] Therefore, how to optimize the fixing structure of the gas water heater operating components and the water heater front panel to facilitate the processing and installation of the operating components and the water heater front panel has become a technical problem that technical personnel in this field urgently need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a fixing structure of the operating part of the gas water heater and the front plate of the water heater, the purpose of which is to improve the convenience of processing and installing the operating part and the front plate of the water heater.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical purpose, the utility model provides a fixing structure of the operating part of a gas water heater and a front plate of the water heater, comprising an operating component and a front plate of the water heater, wherein a flange hole is provided on the front plate of the water heater, and at least one pair of buckle structures are provided on the periphery of the operating component, and the operating component is fixedly connected in the flange hole through the buckle structure;

[0007] A positioning step is provided on one side of the operating component close to the front plate of the water heater. When the operating component is fixedly connected in the flange hole through the buckle structure, the positioning step abuts against the outer side surface of the front plate of the water heater.

[0008] Preferably, each pair of the buckle structures are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the operating component.

[0009] Preferably, the buckle structure is provided with a guide structure.

[0010] Preferably, the operating component is made of plastic.

[0011] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0012] Due to the above-mentioned structural design, the utility model does not need to bend the front plate of the water heater multiple times and punch flange holes, and the fastening screws are eliminated. No additional sheet metal parts are required, and the operating components are directly fixed in the flange holes of the front plate of the water heater through the snap structure and the positioning steps, making the processing and installation of the operating components and the front plate of the water heater simpler, thereby improving the convenience of processing and installation of the operating components and the front plate of the water heater.

[0018] The concept, specific structure and technical effects of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of the present invention.

[0019] Example:

[0020] like Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the fixing structure of the gas water heater operating part and the water heater front plate includes an operating component 1 and a water heater front plate 2. The water heater front plate 2 is provided with a flange hole 5. At least one pair of snap structures 6 are provided on the periphery of the operating component 1. The operating component 1 is fixedly connected in the flange hole 5 through the snap structures 6.

[0021] The flange height of the flange hole 5 ensures that it is consistent with the height of the installation position corresponding to the snap structure 6. A positioning step 7 is provided on the side of the operating component 1 close to the water heater front plate 2. When the operating component 1 is fixedly connected to the flange hole 5 through the snap structure 6, the positioning step 7 abuts against the outer side surface of the water heater front plate 2 to ensure that the operating component 1 is installed in a suitable position.

[0022] The main innovation of the utility model is that there is no need to bend the opening of the water heater front plate 2 multiple times, and the design of screw holes and screws is eliminated. The elasticity of the operating component 1 made of plastic material, the snap structure 6 and the positioning step 7 are utilized to make the processing and installation of the operating component 1 and the water heater front plate 2 simpler, more reasonable and reliable.

[0023] In this embodiment, two pairs of buckle structures 6 are provided, and each pair is symmetrically arranged on two sides of the operating component 1 .

[0024] Furthermore, the buckle structure 6 is provided with a guide structure to facilitate the assembly of the buckle structure 6 .

[0025] The operating component 1 is made of plastic.

[0026] In summary, compared with the screw fastening form in the prior art, the operating component 1 of the utility model utilizes the elasticity of the plastic part itself and the snap-on structure 6 and the positioning step 7, so that the installation between the operating component 1 and the water heater front panel 2 is simpler and more reasonable and reliable; the processing process of the water heater front panel 2 is greatly optimized (no need for multiple bending and punching of flanging holes); fastening screws, additional sheet metal parts and other parts are eliminated, and the number of parts in the fixing structure of the operating component 1 and the water heater front panel 2 is optimized; and there is no need to adopt the fastening method of screwing, which reduces the reliability risks such as fastening failure and screw loosening.

[0027] The preferred specific embodiments of the utility model are described in detail above. It should be understood that ordinary technicians in this field can make many modifications and changes based on the concept of the utility model without creative work. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by technicians in this technical field based on the concept of the utility model through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experiments on the basis of the existing technology should be within the scope of protection determined by the claims.
