Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a cooking utensil. Background Art

[0002] Cooking utensils such as induction cookers have the advantages of fast heating, no open flame, safety and convenience, and are increasingly favored and recognized by consumers. When the induction cooker is working, it can use high-frequency alternating current to pass through the coil disk to generate a high-frequency changing magnetic field. The high-frequency changing magnetic field can generate eddy currents at the bottom of the metal pot placed on the induction cooker to heat the food in the metal pot.

[0003] The cooking utensil includes a shell and a panel. The panel can be used to carry the pot. The shell is used to accommodate electrical components such as coil disks and power boards. In the related art, the side of the panel close to the periphery is connected to the shell. There is no sealing treatment such as gluing between the panel and the shell, and liquids such as water and soup during the cooking process can easily enter the shell through the gap between the panel and the shell. The liquid flows to the electrical components in the shell, which can easily affect the working performance of the electrical components, thereby affecting the normal use of the cooking utensil. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present application provides a cooking utensil, which can solve the problem that liquid enters the shell through the gap between the panel and the shell, thereby affecting the working performance of the electrical components inside the shell and affecting the normal use of the cooking utensil.

[0005] The present application provides a cooking appliance, comprising:

[0006] panel;

[0007] A shell, wherein the shell has an assembly surface overlapped with the panel, the assembly surface is provided with a first water retaining groove extending along the circumference of the assembly surface, and a first drainage hole is provided on the groove wall of the first water retaining groove;

[0008] The shell is provided with heat dissipation holes;

[0009] A water guide part, one end of which is arranged corresponding to the first drain hole, and the other end of which extends to the heat dissipation hole, so that the liquid in the first water retaining groove is discharged out of the shell through the water guide part and the heat dissipation hole.

[0010] The cooking utensil provided in the present application has a first water retaining groove for accommodating liquid on the shell. A first drainage hole is provided on the first water retaining groove. The liquid in the first water retaining groove can flow into the water guide corresponding to the first drainage hole through the first drainage hole. The liquid can be guided into the heat dissipation hole under the guidance of the water guide, so that the liquid can flow out to the outside of the cooking utensil through the heat dissipation hole, which is conducive to reducing the possibility of liquid flowing to the electrical components in the shell, affecting the working performance of the electrical components, and affecting the normal use of the cooking utensil.

[0011] According to one embodiment of the present application, the water guiding portion includes a first retaining rib and a second retaining rib relative to each other, the first retaining rib and the second retaining rib forming an internal hollow water guiding channel, the first retaining rib being located on a side of the second retaining rib close to the center of the shell, and along the thickness direction of the shell, the length of the first retaining rib is greater than the length of the second retaining rib.

[0012] Since the first baffle is located on the side of the second baffle close to the center of the shell, electrical components such as the power board and the cooling fan are arranged on the side of the first baffle facing the center of the shell. Therefore, by setting the length of the first baffle to be greater than the length of the second baffle, the liquid in the first water baffle groove can flow directly into the heat dissipation hole along the inner wall of the first baffle.

[0013] According to an embodiment of the present application, a second water retaining groove located outside the first water retaining groove is further provided on the assembly surface of the shell.

[0014] By arranging the second water retaining groove, the second water retaining groove can also be used to accommodate liquid. Since the second water retaining groove is located at the outside of the first water retaining groove, the liquid entering the housing through the gap between the panel and the housing can first enter the second water retaining groove.

[0015] According to an embodiment of the present application, a partition for separating the first water retaining groove and the second water retaining groove is provided on the assembly surface, and an opening for connecting the first water retaining groove and the second water retaining groove is provided on the partition.

[0016] The partition can be used to separate the first water retaining groove and the second water retaining groove. The opening on the partition can make the first water retaining groove and the second water retaining groove communicate with each other. Therefore, after the liquid enters the second water guide groove, it can flow into the first water retaining groove through the opening, and enter the water guide part through the first drainage hole of the first water retaining groove, and then the water guide part guides the liquid into the heat dissipation hole and guides it out of the shell.

[0017] According to an embodiment of the present application, the second water retaining groove is provided with a second drainage hole, and along the thickness direction of the shell, the second drainage hole at least partially overlaps with the heat dissipation hole.

[0018] Since the second drainage hole and the heat dissipation hole have at least a partial overlapping area, when the liquid in the second water retaining groove flows downward under its own gravity, the liquid can directly fall into the heat dissipation hole below, so as to be discharged to the outside of the shell through the heat dissipation hole.

[0019] According to an embodiment of the present application, the shell includes a connected middle frame and a bottom shell, the panel is overlapped on the middle frame, the middle frame is provided with the assembly surface on a side facing the panel, and the bottom shell is provided with the heat dissipation holes.

[0020] According to an embodiment of the present application, the bottom shell is provided with an inclined guide surface near the bottom surface, and the inclined guide surface is provided with the heat dissipation hole.

[0021] By providing the inclined guide surface, liquid is not easily accumulated on the inclined guide surface.

[0022] According to an embodiment of the present application, a third retaining rib is provided in the bottom shell along the bottom end of the inclined guide surface, and the third retaining rib can prevent the liquid on the inclined guide surface from entering the bottom surface of the bottom shell.

[0023] In this embodiment, the inclined guide surface can guide the liquid to the third barrier rib, where the liquid can accumulate and flow out through the heat dissipation holes.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present application, the shell includes an upper cover, the upper cover is located in the middle frame, the panel is connected to the upper cover, and there is a gap between the panel and the middle frame.

[0025] Among them, when the gap is 0 under ideal conditions, by setting the upper cover inside the middle frame, and the panel can be overlapped on the middle frame, the outer edge of the upper cover can be less exposed, which is beneficial to improving the overall aesthetics of the cooking utensil.

[0026] When the gap is greater than 0, the heat generated by the pot can be transferred to the panel during operation of the cooking utensil, resulting in the panel also having a high temperature. Therefore, by providing an upper cover, the panel and the middle frame are not in direct contact, so that the middle frame does not need to be processed and formed by materials with good heat resistance and heat insulation, which is conducive to reducing the raw material cost of the middle frame, thereby reducing the cost of the cooking utensil.

[0027] According to an embodiment of the present application, the first water retaining groove is an annular groove, the number of the first drainage holes is at least three, and the at least three first drainage holes are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the first water retaining groove;

[0028] And / or, the second water retaining groove is an annular groove, and the number of the second drainage holes is multiple, and the multiple second drainage holes are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the second water retaining groove.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the number of the first drainage holes is small, the drainage efficiency is easily affected. Liquid is easy to accumulate in the first water retaining groove. When the liquid in the first water retaining groove is full, it is easy to cause the first water retaining groove to fail, and the liquid flows freely and enters the electrical parts. Therefore, by setting the number of the first drainage holes to be more than three, the above technical problems can be effectively solved.

[0030] In addition to the technical problems solved by the embodiments of the utility model described above, the technical features that constitute the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by the technical features of these technical solutions, other technical problems that can be solved by the cooking utensils provided by the embodiments of the utility model, other technical features included in the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects brought about by these technical features will be further described in detail in the specific implementation methods.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0053] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The implementation methods described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementation methods consistent with the present application. On the contrary, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the present application as detailed in the attached claims. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0054] Cooking utensils such as induction cookers are commonly used heating devices and can be used with cookers. Taking the heating device as an induction cooker as an example, the heating device may include a panel, a shell and a coil disk. The panel and the shell may enclose a relatively closed cavity to shield the internal power board, control board, coil disk and other live parts during the working process. Among them, the control board is electrically connected to the coil disk to control the opening and closing of the coil disk through the control board. During operation, the high-frequency current passing through the coil disk can generate countless closed magnetic field forces. The magnetic lines of force cutting the cooker can generate countless small eddy currents to heat the cooker placed on the panel. When in use, the cooker is placed on the panel of the heating device. The cooking utensils can be used to cook the ingredients in the pot.

[0055] The panel of the cooking utensil can be used to hold the pot. The shell can be used to accommodate electrical components such as coil disks and power boards. In the related art, the side of the panel close to the periphery is connected to the shell. There is no sealing treatment such as gluing between the panel and the shell. Therefore, liquids such as water and soup during cooking can easily enter the shell through the gap between the panel and the shell. The liquid flows to the electrical components in the shell, which can easily affect the working performance of the electrical components, thereby affecting the normal use of the cooking utensil.

[0056] Based on the above technical problems, the applicant has improved the structure of the existing cooking utensil. In the embodiment of the present application, a first water retaining groove that can accommodate liquid is provided on the shell. A first drainage hole is provided on the first water retaining groove. The liquid in the first water retaining groove can flow into the water guide corresponding to the first drainage hole through the first drainage hole. Under the guidance of the water guide, the liquid can be introduced into the heat dissipation hole, so that the liquid can flow out to the outside of the cooking utensil through the heat dissipation hole, which is conducive to reducing the possibility of liquid flowing to the electrical components in the shell, affecting the working performance of the electrical components, and affecting the normal use of the cooking utensil.

[0057] The cooking appliance provided in the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with specific embodiments.

[0058] See also Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the cooking appliance 100 according to the embodiment of the present application may include a panel 110 , a housing 120 and a water guide 121 .

[0059] The shell 120 has an assembly surface 122a overlapped with the panel 110. The assembly surface 122a is provided with a first water retaining groove 1221 extending circumferentially along the assembly surface 122a. The groove wall of the first water retaining groove 1221 is provided with a first drainage hole 1221a. The shell 120 is provided with a heat dissipation hole 123a. The water guide 121 can be arranged on the shell 120. One end of the water guide 121 can be arranged corresponding to the first drainage hole 1221a, and the other end of the water guide 121 can extend to the heat dissipation hole 123a, so that the liquid in the first water retaining groove 1221 is guided out of the shell 120 through the water guide 121 and the heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0060] In the present application examples, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when external liquid enters the housing 120 from the gap between the panel 110 and the housing 120, the liquid can first enter the first water retaining groove 1221, so that the liquid can be collected in the first water retaining groove 1221 and is not easy to flow in other directions. Then, the liquid can flow into the water guide 121 through the first drainage hole 1221a in the first water retaining groove 1221. Since one end of the water guide 121 can extend to the area close to the heat dissipation hole 123a, the liquid can flow into the heat dissipation hole 123a under the guidance of the water guide 121, and flow out from the heat dissipation hole 123a to the outside of the housing 120, thereby reducing the possibility of the liquid falling into the electrical components in the housing 120, resulting in affecting the working performance of the electrical components.

[0061] Among them, the housing 120 of the embodiment of the present application may be provided with a heat dissipation hole 123a. On the one hand, the hot air flow in the housing 120 can be released to the outside of the housing 120 through the heat dissipation hole 123a to achieve the effect of heat dissipation in the housing 120. On the other hand, the heat dissipation hole 123a can also be used to guide the liquid in the housing 120 to the outside of the housing 120. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the heat dissipation hole 123a can be used as a drain for the liquid to flow out, so that no other drainage structure is required inside the housing 120, and the internal structure of the housing 120 is simple, which is convenient for processing and production.

[0062] In some examples, the first drain hole 1221a can be provided on the bottom wall of the first water retaining groove 1221. The cooking utensil 100 can be placed on a horizontal surface when in use. Therefore, the first drain hole 1221a is provided on the bottom wall of the first water retaining groove 1221, so that the liquid can flow downward into the water guide portion 121 from the first drain hole 1221a on the bottom wall of the first water retaining groove 1221 under the action of its own gravity. The liquid can flow downward along the inner side wall of the first retaining rib 1211 to the heat dissipation hole 123a under the action of its own gravity, and flow out to the outside of the housing 120 through the heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0063] In some possible implementations, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the water guide portion 121 of the embodiment of the present application may include a first retaining rib 1211 and a second retaining rib 1212 that are opposite to each other. The first retaining rib 1211 and the second retaining rib 1212 may enclose an internally hollow water guide channel. The first retaining rib 1211 is located on one side of the second retaining rib 1212 close to the center of the shell 120. Along the thickness direction Z of the shell 120, the length of the first retaining rib 1211 may be greater than the length of the second retaining rib 1212.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, electrical components such as the cooling fan 130 and the power board 140 are arranged on the side of the first barrier rib 1211 facing the center of the shell 120. Therefore, by setting the length of the first barrier rib 1211 to be greater than the length of the second barrier rib 1212, the liquid in the first water retaining groove 1221 can flow directly into the heat dissipation hole 123a along the inner wall of the first barrier rib 1211.

[0065] Specifically, the first retaining rib 1211 extends to the heat dissipation hole 123a, and the first retaining rib 1211 can have a guiding function to guide the liquid in the first water retaining groove 1221 into the heat dissipation hole 123a. In addition, the first retaining rib 1211 can also have a water retaining function, and the first retaining rib 1211 can prevent the liquid from falling onto the housing 120 and causing splashes to the electrical components, thereby affecting the possibility of normal operation of the electrical components.

[0066] In some examples, the first barrier rib 1211 extending to the heat dissipation hole 123a may mean that there is a small gap between the lower end surface of the first barrier rib 1211 and the heat dissipation hole 123a area of ​​the housing 120 to meet the installation tolerance. The first barrier rib 1211 extending to the heat dissipation hole 123a can allow the liquid to flow directly into the heat dissipation hole 123a along the longer first barrier rib 1211, and the liquid is not easy to disperse during the falling process, which is conducive to reducing the possibility of liquid flowing into electrical components.

[0067] In some possible implementations, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a second water retaining groove 1222 located outside the first water retaining groove 1221 may also be provided on the assembly surface 122a of the shell 120 of the embodiment of the present application.

[0068] In the embodiment of the present application, the second water retaining groove 1222 can be used to contain liquid. Since the second water retaining groove 1222 is located outside the first water retaining groove 1221, the liquid entering the housing 120 through the gap between the panel 110 and the housing 120 can first enter the second water retaining groove 1222.

[0069] In some examples, when the liquid in the second water retaining groove 1222 is full, the liquid can enter the first water retaining groove 1221 to enter the water guide portion 121 through the first drainage hole 1221a of the first water retaining groove 1221 and be guided to the heat dissipation hole 123a through the water guide portion 121.

[0070] In some examples, the depth of the first water retaining groove 1221 and the depth of the second water retaining groove 1222 are not limited in this embodiment. For example, the depth of the first water retaining groove 1221 may be greater than the depth of the second water retaining groove 1222 .

[0071] In some examples, the width of the first water retaining groove 1221 and the width of the second water retaining groove 1222 are not limited in this embodiment. For example, the width of the first water retaining groove 1221 may be greater than the width of the second water retaining groove 1222 .

[0072] In some possible implementations, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the assembly surface 122a of the embodiment of the present application may be provided with a partition 1223 for separating the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second water retaining groove 1222. The partition 1223 is provided with an opening 1223a for connecting the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second water retaining groove 1222.

[0073] In the embodiment of the present application, the partition 1223 can be used to separate the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second water retaining groove 1222. The opening 1223a on the partition 1223 can make the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second water retaining groove 1222 communicate. Therefore, after the liquid enters the second water guide groove, it can flow into the first water retaining groove 1221 through the opening 1223a, and enter the water guide part 121 through the first drainage hole 1221a of the first water retaining groove 1221, and then the water guide part 121 guides the liquid into the heat dissipation hole 123a and guides it out of the housing 120.

[0074] In some examples, at least one opening 1223a may be provided on the partition 1223. When there are multiple openings 1223a, the multiple openings 1223a may be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the partition 1223, so that liquids in different areas of the second water retaining groove 1222 can enter the first water retaining groove 1221 through different openings 1223a, thereby avoiding the phenomenon of liquid overflow due to a large amount of liquid in a local area of ​​the second water retaining groove 1222.

[0075] In some examples, the first drainage hole 1221 a and the second drainage hole 1222 a may be disposed correspondingly at the opening 1223 a of the partition 1223 .

[0076] In some possible implementations, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the second water retaining groove 1222 of the embodiment of the present application may be provided with a second drainage hole 1222a on the groove wall. Along the thickness direction Z of the housing 120, the second drainage hole 1222a at least partially overlaps with the heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0077] In the embodiment of the present application, since the second drainage hole 1222a and the heat dissipation hole 123a have at least a partial overlapping area, when the liquid in the second water retaining groove 1222 flows downward under the action of its own gravity, the liquid can directly fall into the heat dissipation hole 123a below, so as to be discharged to the outside of the shell 120 through the heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0078] By arranging the second drain hole 1222a on the second water retaining groove 1222, a part of the liquid in the second water retaining groove 1222 can flow to the heat dissipation hole 123a through the second drain hole 1222a, and another part of the liquid can enter the first water retaining groove 1221 through the opening 1223a on the partition plate, and flow to the heat dissipation hole 123a through the first drain hole 1221a on the first water retaining groove 1221. Therefore, the first drain hole 1221a on the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second drain hole 1222a on the second water retaining groove 1222 can both be used to guide the liquid to the heat dissipation hole 123a, and flow out through the heat dissipation hole 123a, so as to improve the drainage efficiency.

[0079] In some examples, the second drainage hole 1222 a may be disposed on a bottom wall of the second water retaining groove 1222 .

[0080] In some examples, the second drain hole 1222a may also be provided with a water guide 121. Specifically, the first drain hole 1221a and the second drain hole 1222a may both be provided with a water guide 121. One end of the water guide 121 at the second drain hole 1222a may be connected to the second drain hole 1222a, and the other end of the water guide 121 may extend to the heat dissipation hole 123a, so that the liquid in the second water retaining groove 1222 flows into the water guide 121 through the second drain hole 1222a, and is guided by the water guide 121 to the heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0081] In some possible implementations, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the housing 120 of the embodiment of the present application may include a connected middle frame 122 and a bottom shell 123. The panel 110 may be overlapped on the middle frame 122. A mounting surface 122a may be provided on the side of the middle frame 122 facing the panel 110. A heat dissipation hole 123a may be provided on the bottom shell 123.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second water retaining groove 1222 are both arranged on the assembly surface 122a of the middle frame 122. The cooling fan 130 and the power board 140 can be arranged on the bottom shell 123. When the panel 110 is overlapped with the middle frame 122, the panel 110 can cover the first water retaining groove 1221 and the second water retaining groove 1222.

[0083] In some examples, the second water retaining groove 1222 can be set near the periphery of the panel 110. Therefore, when liquid enters through the gap between the panel 110 and the middle frame 122, the liquid can first flow into the second water retaining groove 1222 to provide a flow path for the liquid through the second water retaining groove 1222, thereby reducing the possibility of liquid flowing freely and flowing into the electrical components set on the bottom shell 123.

[0084] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the bottom shell 123 may be provided with an inclined guide surface 1231 near the bottom surface. The inclined guide surface 1231 may be provided with a heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, when the cooking utensil 100 is placed on a horizontal surface, an inclined angle may be formed between the inclined guide surface 1231 and the horizontal surface. By providing the inclined guide surface 1231, liquid is not likely to accumulate on the inclined guide surface 1231.

[0086] Specifically, when the liquid flowing out of the water guide portion 121 flows in the direction of the heat dissipation hole 123a, part of the liquid can be directly discharged to the outside of the bottom shell 123 through the heat dissipation hole 123a, and part of the liquid can fall on the inclined guide surface 1231. The inclined guide surface 1231 can provide a guiding effect for the liquid, so that the liquid falling on the inclined guide surface 1231 can flow along the inclined guide surface 1231, and is not easy to gather on the inclined guide surface 1231. The liquid flowing on the inclined guide surface 1231 can more easily flow into the heat dissipation hole 123a to discharge the liquid.

[0087] In some examples, the heat dissipation hole 123a may include a plurality of through holes. The plurality of through holes may be distributed at intervals along the circumference of the bottom shell 123. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the through hole may be a strip-shaped hole. A plurality of through holes may be evenly distributed along the circumference of the bottom shell 123 .

[0088] In some examples, the heat dissipation hole 123a can be set close to the outer contour of the bottom shell 123, and the second water retaining groove 1222 and the first water retaining groove 1221 can be set close to the periphery of the panel 110. Therefore, the liquid entering the cooking appliance 100 flows in the area near the edge of the shell 120 to more effectively reduce the possibility of liquid flowing toward the center of the bottom shell 123, causing water to enter the electrical components on the bottom shell 123.

[0089] In some possible implementations, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a third retaining rib 1232 may be provided at the bottom end of the inclined guide surface 1231 in the bottom shell 123 of the embodiment of the present application. The third retaining rib 1232 may prevent the liquid on the inclined guide surface 1231 from entering the bottom surface of the bottom shell 123.

[0090] In the embodiment of the present application, the inclined guide surface 1231 can guide the liquid to the third barrier rib 1232. The liquid accumulates at the third barrier rib 1232 and flows out through the heat dissipation holes 123a.

[0091] Specifically, the lower side of the inclined guide surface 1231 is connected to the third barrier rib 1232. Therefore, the liquid on the inclined guide surface 1231 can flow to the third barrier rib 1232 along the inclined guide surface 1231. The third barrier rib 1232 can be arranged close to the heat dissipation hole 123a. Therefore, when the liquid flows to the third barrier rib 1232, it can flow out of the bottom shell 123 through the heat dissipation hole 123a at the third barrier rib 1232.

[0092] In some examples, the third barrier rib 1232 protrudes from the bottom surface of the bottom case 123. The third barrier rib 1232 may extend along the circumference of the bottom case 123, and the third barrier rib 1232 corresponds to the heat dissipation hole 123a.

[0093] In some possible implementations, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the housing 120 may include an upper cover 124. The upper cover 124 may be located inside the middle frame 122. The panel 110 may be connected to the upper cover 124. There is a gap between the panel 110 and the middle frame 122.

[0094] It should be noted that the gap may refer to the distance between a side of the panel 110 close to the periphery and an upper end surface of the middle frame 122 along the thickness direction Z of the shell 120 .

[0095] In an ideal state, the gap between the panel 110 and the middle frame 122 can be 0. At this time, the upper cover 124 can be located in the middle frame 122, and the panel 110 can overlap the middle frame 122, so the outer edge of the upper cover 124 can be difficult to be exposed, which is conducive to improving the overall aesthetics of the cooking utensil 100.

[0096] Alternatively, when the gap between the panel 110 and the middle frame 122 is greater than 0, the heat generated by the pot can be transferred to the panel 110 during the operation of the cooking utensil 100, resulting in the panel 110 also having a high heat. Therefore, by providing the upper cover 124, it can be used to prevent the panel 110 from directly contacting the middle frame 122, so that the middle frame 122 does not need to be formed by using a material with good heat resistance and heat insulation, which is conducive to reducing the raw material cost of the middle frame 122, thereby reducing the cost of the cooking utensil 100.

[0097] Specifically, the surface where the upper cover 124 is connected to the panel 110 may extend beyond the upper end surface of the middle frame 122, so that when the panel 110 is connected to the upper cover 124, there may be a gap between the area corresponding to the upper cover 124 and the middle frame 122 and the middle frame 122, thereby preventing the panel 110 and the middle frame 122 from directly contacting each other.

[0098] In some examples, a radial gap may be provided between the outer edge of the upper cover 124 and the middle frame 122. When liquid flows into the gap between the panel 110 and the middle frame 122, the liquid may flow into the second water retaining groove 1222 through the radial gap. The radial gap may provide a flow space for the liquid.

[0099] In some possible implementations, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first water retaining groove 1221 may be an annular groove. The number of the first drainage holes 1221a is at least three. The at least three first drainage holes 1221a are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the first water retaining groove 1221.

[0100] In the embodiment of the present application, when the number of the first drainage holes 1221a is small, the drainage efficiency is easily affected. Liquid is easy to accumulate in the first water retaining groove 1221. When the liquid in the first water retaining groove 1221 is full, it is easy to cause the first water retaining groove 1221 to fail, and the liquid flows freely and enters the electrical parts. Therefore, by setting the number of the first drainage holes 1221a to be three or more, the above technical problems can be effectively solved.

[0101] The second water retaining groove 1222 may be an annular groove. The number of the second drainage holes 1222a is multiple. The multiple second drainage holes 1222a are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the second water retaining groove 1222.

[0102] In some examples, at least one of the plurality of second drainage holes 1222 a and one of the first drainage holes 1221 a may be disposed correspondingly on both sides of the partition 1223 .

[0103] In the embodiment of the present application, since the first drain hole 1221a may be provided with a first blocking rib 1211 extending to the heat dissipation hole 123a, the first blocking rib 1211 may also have a water blocking effect on the liquid flowing out of the second drain hole 1222a, so that the first blocking rib 1211 has a blocking effect on the liquid flowing out of the first drain hole 1221a and the second drain hole 1222a.
