[0028] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0029] Embodiment 1,

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 5The utility model discloses a drainable RV water heater, including a water heater body 20, a mounting shell 10 and a mounting seat 30. The mounting shell 10 has a mounting cavity 11. The water heater body 20 is installed in the mounting cavity 11. The installation may include a mounting plate 12. Specifically, the mounting plate 12 is sealed at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11, and the mounting plate 12 and the mounting surface on the mounting seat 30 used for mounting with external equipment are set at an angle, so that the mounting plate 12 can guide the water in the mounting cavity 11 to flow out.

[0031] On the basis of the above structure, during assembly, the installation cavity 11 can be formed integrally in the installation shell 10 or a plurality of side panels can be used to enclose the installation cavity 11, and the installation plate 12 can be sealed at the bottom of the installation cavity 11, and then the water heater body 20 can be placed in the installation cavity 11 and fixed in the installation cavity 11 with connecting parts (screws or bolts, etc.). After the water heater and the installation shell 10 are assembled, the installation shell 10 is installed on the mounting seat 30, and the installation plate 12 is set at an angle to the installation surface so that the installation plate 12 can have a certain inclination angle. In this way, when water flows into the installation plate 12, because the installation plate 12 has a certain inclination angle, the water flow falling on it can be discharged, so as to guide the water flow inside the installation cavity 11 to be discharged.

[0032] Specifically, when the RV water heater in this embodiment is installed on an RV or other outdoor equipment, the following is a specific explanation on an RV. During assembly, the mounting surface on the mounting seat 30 can be first placed horizontally with the outside, and then installed on the body of the RV through connecting parts (such as screws or bolts, etc.) so that the mounting seat 30 and the RV are installed horizontally for easy assembly. Then the mounting shell 10 with the water heater body 20 installed is connected to the mounting seat 30 by using connecting parts or welding. At this time, the mounting plate 12 located at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11 can be set at an angle to the mounting surface so that the mounting plate 12 is inclined on the mounting seat 30. In this way, when external rainwater enters the mounting cavity 11, the water will flow downward along the inclination angle of the mounting plate 12 under the action of its own gravity, thereby guiding the water flow to discharge from the mounting cavity 11, and it is not easy to accumulate inside the mounting cavity 11, so as to reduce the risk of corrosion of the mounting shell 10 or the water heater body 20 due to rainwater accumulation.

[0033] That is, the RV water heater in the utility model is installed because the mounting plate 12 at the bottom of the shell 10 is set at an angle to the mounting surface. When water enters the interior, the water flow can be guided out through the mounting plate 12. It is not easy for water to accumulate inside and the waterproof effect is good. At the same time, when assembled with the outside, it can be assembled parallel to the outside through the mounting surface on the mounting seat 30, which is convenient for installation.

[0034] It should be noted that when installing the mounting plate 12, an irregular block structure, such as a triangular block or a conical block, can be set at the connection between the mounting plate 12 and the mounting seat 30, and it can be pressed between the mounting plate 12 and the mounting seat 30 so that the mounting plate 12 is set at an angle to the mounting surface, or the mounting plate 12 can be directly set at an angle at the bottom of the mounting shell 10, so that after the mounting shell 10 is assembled with the horizontally placed mounting seat 30, the mounting plate 12 can be set at an angle to the mounting surface.

[0035] In addition, drainage holes or drainage intervals may be provided on the mounting plate 12 so that water falling into the mounting plate 12 can be guided therethrough to flow out of the mounting cavity 11 . The drainage holes may be specifically provided in the flow direction of the water flow.

[0036] Preferably, the water heater body 20 can be a gas water heater or a solar water heater, etc.; and the mounting shell 10 can be made of metal that is corrosion-resistant and not easy to rust, such as stainless steel plate, aluminum alloy, etc. Specifically, the mounting shell 10 can be formed by welding or gluing multiple side panels, top panels and bottom panels to each other, wherein the bottom panel at the bottom is formed as a mounting plate 12.

[0037] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the mounting plate 12 is tilted from bottom to top along a first direction at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11 , so that a first guiding slope 111 is formed on the mounting plate 12 , and the first guiding slope 111 is used to guide the water flow to be discharged into the mounting cavity 11 .

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the left and right directions of the mounting shell 10 are taken as an example of the first direction for explanation. During assembly, the mounting plate 12 is installed at an angle from bottom to top along the first direction at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11, so that the mounting plate 12 has a first guide slope 111 after the assembly is completed by tilting the mounting plate 12. In this way, when water flows into the mounting cavity 11, it will inevitably flow to the mounting plate 12 at the bottom due to its own gravity, and then guide the water flow to be discharged out of the mounting cavity 11 through the first guide slope 111.

[0039] More specifically, a mounting block 121 is further provided on the mounting plate 12, and the mounting block 121 is protruded from the end surface of the mounting plate 12. During assembly, the water heater body 20 can be connected to the mounting block 121 by gluing or connecting parts (screws or bolts, etc.). In this way, after the water heater body 20 is installed on the mounting block 121, the entire structure protrudes from the end surface of the mounting plate 12. Then, when water flows through the mounting plate 12, even if the water flow is not discharged in time and accumulates on the mounting plate 12, because the water heater body 20 protrudes from the end surface of the mounting plate 12, the water flow is not easy to contact the water heater body 20, thereby reducing the risk of the water heater body 20 being corroded by the water flow and affecting its use.

[0040] In addition, a guide surface 1211 is provided on the mounting block 121 . The guide surface 1211 is arranged along the circumference of the mounting block 121 and is used to guide the water flow to the mounting plate 12 and then discharged from the mounting cavity 11 through the mounting plate 12 .

[0041] On the basis of this mechanism, during assembly, an arc surface or an inclined surface can be formed at the periphery of the mounting block 121 by means of one-piece molding or mechanical cutting, so as to form a guide surface 1211 through the arc surface or the inclined surface. In this way, when water flows into the mounting block 121, because its periphery is arranged in an arc surface or an inclined surface, the water flow can flow quickly to the mounting plate 12 through the guidance of the arc surface or the inclined surface, and finally be discharged from the mounting cavity 11 through the guidance of the first guiding inclined surface 111 on the mounting plate 12, so that the overall waterproof effect is better.

[0042] Furthermore, during assembly, the mounting block 121 is tilted from top to bottom along the first direction on the mounting plate 12, so that a second guide slope 1212 is formed on the mounting block 121, and the second guide slope 1212 is connected to the guide surface 1211 to guide the water flow to the guide surface 1211 through the second guide slope 1212, and then discharge the mounting block 121.

[0043] Specifically, since the mounting block 121 is inclined from top to bottom along a first direction relative to the mounting plate 12, which is opposite to the inclination direction of the mounting plate 12, the water heater can remain in a horizontal state after being installed on the mounting block 121, thereby ensuring that the water heater can work stably and its use will not be affected by the inclination.

[0044] More specifically, the above-mentioned mounting blocks 121 are provided with multiple mounting holes 1213. During assembly, the bottom of the water heater body 20 is placed on the multiple mounting blocks 121, and then the connecting parts (bolts or screws, etc.) are passed through the multiple mounting holes 1213 to lock the water heater body 20.

[0045] Furthermore, a plurality of connecting pieces 13 are provided on the outer periphery of the mounting shell 10. The plurality of connecting pieces 13 are arranged along the periphery of the mounting shell 10 and protrude from the periphery of the mounting shell 10. The plurality of connecting pieces 13 are respectively connected to the mounting seat 30, and a plurality of connecting holes 131 are provided on the plurality of connecting pieces 13. The plurality of connecting holes 131 are used to pass connecting parts.

[0046] Specifically, a plurality of connecting pieces 13 are protruded from the peripheral edge of the mounting shell 10 so as to be connected to the mounting seat 30 through the plurality of connecting pieces 13 for easy installation. During assembly, the connecting piece can be passed through the connecting hole 131 and then extended into the end wall of the mounting seat 30 so that the mounting shell 10 and the mounting seat 30 are connected and locked.

[0047] Preferably, the connecting piece can be a screw, a bolt or a bolt.

[0048] Furthermore, a plurality of support bars 311 are provided on the mounting shell 10, and a plurality of support blocks protrude from the mounting surface. Every two adjacent support bars 311 are connected to each other and spaced apart to form a heat dissipation gap 312. The heat dissipation gap 312 is used for dissipating heat, wherein the bottom of the mounting shell 10 is connected to the plurality of support bars 311 through a plurality of connecting pieces 13 so that the mounting shell 10 is located above the heat dissipation gap 312.

[0049] Specifically, since a large amount of heat may be generated inside the installation cavity 11 when the water heater body 20 is in operation, when assembling the installation shell 10 of this embodiment, two or more connecting pieces 13 on the outer periphery of the bottom of the installation shell 10 are installed one-to-one on the multiple support bars 311 on the mounting seat 30, so that the installation shell 10 is located above the heat dissipation gap 312, so as to provide a larger heat dissipation space through the heat dissipation gap 312, reduce thermal resistance and promote air convection, thereby helping the installation shell 10 to dissipate heat. Compared with installing the installation shell 10 directly on the mounting seat 30, the heat dissipation effect is more superior.

[0050] Furthermore, the installation cavity 11 has an opening, and the opening is connected to the installation cavity 11, so that the water heater body 20 or other components or power cords can be installed in the installation through the opening, and a conducting port is provided on the side of the installation seat 30 close to the opening, so that the opening and the conducting port are connected after the installation shell 10 and the installation seat 30 are assembled, and a cover plate 40 is provided at the conducting port. When the components or circuits inside the installation cavity 11 are assembled, it is only necessary to seal the cover plate 40 at the conducting port to cover the opening, so as to cover the installation cavity 11, prevent external dust from entering the installation cavity 11 and affecting the use of internal components. When the internal components need to be maintained, the cover plate 40 can also be opened for maintenance, and the structure is more practical.

[0051] Embodiment 2,

[0052] See also Figures 1 to 5 A motorhome comprises a body and a drainable motorhome water heater in Example 1. During assembly, the mounting surface on the mounting seat 30 is placed horizontally with the body, and then is installed on the body through connecting parts (such as screws or bolts, etc.) so that the mounting seat 30 is installed horizontally with the body for easy assembly. Then, the mounting shell 10 on which the water heater body 20 is installed is connected to the mounting seat 30 by using connecting parts or welding. At this time, the mounting plate 12 located at the bottom of the mounting cavity 11 can be set at an angle to the mounting surface so that the mounting plate 12 is inclined on the mounting seat 30. In this way, when external rainwater enters the mounting cavity 11, the water will flow downward along the inclination angle of the mounting plate 12 under the action of its own gravity, thereby guiding the water flow to discharge from the mounting cavity 11, and it is not easy to accumulate inside the mounting cavity 11, so as to reduce the risk of corrosion of the mounting shell 10 and the water heater body 20 due to rainwater accumulation.

[0053] That is, the RV water heater in the utility model is installed because the mounting plate 12 at the bottom of the shell 10 is set at an angle to the mounting surface, so when water enters the interior, the water flow can be guided out through the mounting plate 12, and water is not easy to accumulate inside, and the waterproof effect is good. At the same time, when assembled with the vehicle body, it can be assembled parallel to the vehicle body through the mounting surface on the mounting seat 30, which is convenient for installation.

It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also regarded as the protection scope of the utility model.
