Therefore, through the connection between the first functional module 20 and the first card slot 21 and the first connecting hole 22, the connection position of the first functional module 20 and the first mounting structure 2 can be better increased to improve the connection stability between the first mounting structure 2 and the first functional module 20. Through the cooperation between the second functional module 30 and the second card slot 31 and the second connecting hole 32, the connection position of the second functional module 30 and the second mounting structure 3 can be better increased to improve the connection stability between the second functional module 30 and the second mounting structure 3.

[0046] In addition, in the process of installing the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 to the connecting structure 10, the first card slot 21 can provide a good positioning effect for the installation of the first functional module 20, and the second card slot 31 can provide a good positioning effect for the installation of the second functional module 30, which is beneficial to improve the positioning accuracy of the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 to improve assembly accuracy and efficiency.

[0047] In a specific example, a first snap-fitting protrusion 51 and a first assembly hole 52 are formed on the first functional module 20, the first snap-fitting protrusion 51 is snap-fitted with the first slot 21, and the first assembly hole 52 is arranged opposite to the first connecting hole 22. Therefore, after the first snap-fitting protrusion 51 is aligned with the first slot 21 and inserted, fasteners such as screws can be passed through the first assembly hole 52 and the first connecting hole 22 and tightened to fix the first functional module 20 on the connecting structure 10; a second snap-fitting protrusion 71 and a second assembly hole 72 are formed on the second functional module 30, the second snap-fitting protrusion 71 is snap-fitted with the second slot 31, and the second assembly hole 72 is arranged opposite to the second connecting hole 32.

[0048] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the interval between the first card slot 21 and the first connection hole 22 is different from the interval between the second card slot 31 and the second connection hole 32. Among them, the interval between the first card slot 21 and the first connection hole 22 is the interval between the portion of the first functional module 20 that is engaged in the first card slot 21 and the portion of the first functional module 20 that corresponds to the first connection hole 22. Similarly, the interval between the second card slot 31 and the second connection hole 32 is the interval between the portion of the second functional module 30 that is engaged in the second card slot 31 and the portion of the second functional module 30 that corresponds to the second connection hole 32, so that the first mounting structure 2 and the second mounting structure 3 can better adapt to the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 with different intervals at the two connection positions, which is conducive to improving the applicability of the connection structure 10.

[0049] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the arrangement direction of the first card slot 21 and the first connection hole 22 is different from the arrangement direction of the second card slot 31 and the second connection hole 32. Therefore, the first mounting structure 2 and the second mounting structure 3 can better adapt to the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 with different arrangement directions at the two connection positions, which is conducive to improving the applicability of the connection structure 10.

[0050] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the first mounting structure 2 and the second mounting structure 3 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the connecting plate 1, wherein the first mounting structure 2 includes a first protrusion 23 and a second protrusion 24 arranged at intervals along the length direction of the connecting plate 1, a first card slot 21 open toward the second protrusion 24 is formed on the first protrusion 23, and a first connection hole 22 is formed on the second protrusion 24. That is, in the process of installing the first functional module 20 to the connecting structure 10, the card connection part of the first functional module 20 can be first inserted into the first card slot 21 of the first protrusion 23, and then the part of the first functional module 20 corresponding to the first connection hole 22 is placed on the second protrusion 24 and corresponds to the second connection hole 32, and then installed through the connecting member, the first protrusion 23 and the second protrusion 24 both protrude from the surface of the connecting plate 1, that is, the first functional module 20 can be installed on the surface of the connecting plate 1 provided with the first protrusion 23 and the second protrusion 24, so that the first functional module 20 can be prevented from occupying the space on the side of the connecting plate 1 away from the first protrusion 23 and the second protrusion 24 after installation, thereby avoiding the risk of interference.

[0051] The second mounting structure 3 includes a third protrusion 33, the third protrusion 33 forms a second slot 31 open to the first mounting structure 2, and a second connection hole 32 is formed on the third protrusion 33, and the second slot 31 and the second connection hole 32 are arranged along the width direction of the connecting plate 1. That is, in the process of installing the second functional module 30 to the connecting structure 10, the clamping part of the second functional module 30 can be first inserted into the second slot 31 of the third protrusion 33, and then the part of the second functional module 30 corresponding to the second connection hole 32 is placed on the second protrusion 24 and corresponds to the second connection hole 32, and then installed through the connecting member, the third protrusion 33 protrudes from the surface of the connecting plate 1, that is, the second functional module 30 can be installed on the surface of the connecting plate 1 provided with the third protrusion 33, so that the second functional module 30 can be prevented from occupying the space on the side of the connecting plate 1 away from the third protrusion 33 after installation, and thus the risk of interference can be avoided. In addition, by providing the second slot 31 and the second connection hole 32 on the third protrusion 33, the structure is compact.

[0052] In a specific example, the connection structure 10 is an integrally formed part, and the first protrusion 23, the second protrusion 24 and the third protrusion 33 are all formed by stamping, that is, the first protrusion 23, the second protrusion 24 and the third protrusion 33 are all integrally formed with the connection plate 1. Therefore, the integrally formed structure can not only ensure the structural and performance stability of the first protrusion 23, the second protrusion 24, the third protrusion 33 and the connection plate 1, but also facilitate molding and simple manufacturing, and eliminate the assembly parts and connection process used for connecting the first protrusion 23, the second protrusion 24, the third protrusion 33 and the connection plate 1, the production cost is low, and the assembly efficiency of the first protrusion 23, the second protrusion 24, the third protrusion 33 and the connection plate 1 is greatly improved, and the connection reliability of the first protrusion 23, the second protrusion 24, the third protrusion 33 and the connection plate 1 is ensured. Moreover, the overall strength and stability of the integrally formed structure are high, and the service life is longer.

[0053] According to some embodiments of the utility model, a plurality of first mounting structures 2 and a plurality of second mounting structures 3 are provided, and the plurality of first mounting structures 2 and the plurality of second mounting structures 3 are arranged alternately and spaced along the length direction of the connecting plate 1. That is, in the length direction of the connecting plate 1, a second mounting structure 3 is provided between any two adjacent first mounting structures 2, and a first mounting structure 2 is provided between any two adjacent second mounting structures 3. Thus, the plurality of first mounting structures 2 and the plurality of second mounting structures 3 can be evenly arranged along the length direction of the connecting plate 1, so as to ensure that the plurality of first functional modules 20 or the plurality of second functional modules 30 can be evenly distributed along the length direction of the connecting plate 1 after being installed on the connecting structure 10.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the connecting plate 1 includes a plate body 11 and a first folded edge 12 provided on one side of the plate body 11 in the width direction of the connecting plate 1, the first mounting structure 2 and the second mounting structure 3 are both provided on the plate body 11, and the first folded edge 12 and the plate body 11 jointly define a wiring groove 13. Therefore, by providing the first folded edge 12 on the plate body 11, the anti-deformation performance of the plate body 11 can be better improved, thereby the anti-deformation performance of the connecting plate 1 can be better improved, and then the stability of the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 can be connected and fixed by the connecting structure 10. In addition, the wiring harnesses routed along the wiring groove 13, such as the wiring harnesses of the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30, can be better protected by the first folded edge 12 and the plate body 11, so as to improve the safety of the wiring harnesses after installation.

[0055] In a specific example, the first folded edge 12 has an L-shaped cross-section in the length direction of the connecting plate 1, and the first folded edge 12 and the plate body 11 together define a wiring groove 13 that is open toward the center of the plate body 11 in the width direction of the connecting plate 1, so that the wiring harness located in the wiring groove 13 can be protected from both sides in the thickness direction of the connecting plate 1 by the first folded edge 12 and the plate body 11, which is beneficial to enhance the limiting effect and protection effect of the wiring groove 13 on the wiring harness.

[0056] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the free end of the first folded edge 12 forms a wire pressing buckle 14, where the free end of the first folded edge 12 refers to the end of the first folded edge 12 extending along the plate body 11, that is, the end of the first folded edge 12 extending from the connection position of the first folded edge 12 and the plate body 11 toward the direction away from the plate body 11, and the wire pressing buckle 14 is used to limit the wire harness located in the wiring groove 13. Therefore, after the wire harness is placed in the wiring groove 13, the wire pressing buckle 14 can be used to prevent the wire harness in the wiring groove 13 from escaping, thereby ensuring that the wire harness can be kept in the wiring groove 13, which is conducive to improving the protective effect of the wiring groove 13 on the wire harness. In one embodiment, the wire pressing buckle 14 is provided with a plurality of wire pressing buckles 14 arranged at intervals along the length direction of the connecting plate 1, so that the wire harness located in the wiring groove 13 can be limited from multiple positions of the wiring groove 13 in the length direction of the connecting plate 1 by a plurality of wire pressing buckles 14, so as to further improve the fixing effect of the connecting structure 10 on the wire harness.

[0057] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the connecting plate 1 further includes a second folded edge 15, which is disposed on the other side of the plate body 11 in the width direction of the connecting plate 1, and the second folded edge 15 and the first folded edge 12 are located on the same side of the plate body 11 in the thickness direction. Therefore, by arranging the first folded edge 12 and the second folded edge 15 on the plate body 11, the anti-deformation performance of the plate body 11 can be further improved, thereby better improving the anti-deformation performance of the connecting plate 1, and further the stability of the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 can be connected and fixed by the connecting structure 10. In addition, in one embodiment, the first mounting structure 2 and the second mounting structure 3 are located on the same side of the plate body 11 as the first folded edge 12 and the second folded edge 15. Therefore, after the first functional module 20 is connected to the first mounting structure 2, it is located between the first folded edge 12 and the second folded edge 15. After the second functional module 30 is connected to the second mounting structure 3, it is also located between the first folded edge 12 and the second folded edge 15. Therefore, the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 can be limited from both sides in the width direction of the connecting plate 1 by the first folded edge 12 and the second folded edge 15, which is beneficial to improve the stability of the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 after installation.

[0058] In a specific example, the plate body 11, the first folded edge 12, the second folded edge 15 and the wire pressing buckle 14 are integrally formed. The integrally formed structure can not only ensure the structural and performance stability of the plate body 11, the first folded edge 12, the second folded edge 15 and the wire pressing buckle 14, but also facilitate molding and simple manufacturing. It also eliminates the assembly parts and connection procedures used to connect the plate body 11, the first folded edge 12, the second folded edge 15 and the wire pressing buckle 14. The production cost is low and the assembly efficiency of the plate body 11, the first folded edge 12, the second folded edge 15 and the wire pressing buckle 14 is greatly improved, ensuring the connection reliability of the plate body 11, the first folded edge 12, the second folded edge 15 and the wire pressing buckle 14. Furthermore, the integrally formed structure has higher overall strength and stability and longer service life.

[0061] According to the sterilization component 100 of the second embodiment of the utility model, the connecting structure 10 is compatible with the installation of the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30. Therefore, there is no need to use two connecting structures 10 of different specifications and models to adapt the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30, which is conducive to reducing the cost of the sterilization component 100.

[0062] In a specific example, the first functional module 20 and the second functional module 30 are both ultraviolet sterilization modules, which increases the convenience of purchasing ultraviolet sterilization modules when the sterilization component 100 is produced.
