[0002] Solar water heaters are heating devices that convert sunlight into heat energy, heating water from low temperature to high temperature to meet people's needs for hot water in life and production. Solar water heaters are mainly vacuum tube solar water heaters, which occupy 95% of the domestic market share. Vacuum tube household solar water heaters are composed of related parts such as heat collecting tubes, water storage tanks and brackets. The conversion of solar energy into heat energy mainly relies on vacuum collecting tubes. Vacuum collecting tubes use the principle that hot water floats and cold water sinks to make water microcirculate and obtain the required hot water.

[0003] The outer layer of the water tank of the existing solar water heater is iron sheet, and the water tank of the solar water heater is completely exposed to the outdoors. Therefore, after being weathered by the sun and eroded by rain, the outer iron sheet of the solar water heater will be damaged, especially the iron sheet connections at both ends of the water tank will leak due to rust, thereby greatly reducing the service life of the solar water tank. For this reason, we provide a solar water heater water tank leakage prevention protection device. Utility Model Content

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, both sides of the top cover are fixedly connected with connecting blocks 1, and both sides of the bottom cover are fixedly connected with connecting blocks 2, and hexagonal bolts penetrate the interiors of both connecting blocks 1 and 2.

[0007] As a preferred implementation, the hexagonal bolt is slidably connected to both the first connecting block and the second connecting block, and a nut is sleeved on the outer surface of the hexagonal bolt.

[0008] As a preferred implementation, the nut is threadedly connected to the hexagonal bolt, and the second connecting block is provided with a hexagonal groove that fits with the nut.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, a cross bolt penetrates the interior of the connecting ring and the insert; the cross bolt is slidably connected to the insert, and the cross bolt is threadedly connected to the connecting ring.

[0010] As a preferred implementation, a rubber strip is provided at the connection between the top cover and the bottom cover, and a sealing groove matching the rubber strip is provided on both the top cover and the bottom cover.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of the utility model are:

[0012] The utility model can provide a protective mechanism to cover and protect the water tank of the solar water heater, so that the water tank will not be weathered and cracked due to the sun's exposure. At the same time, it can also effectively avoid the scouring and erosion of rainwater, so that the water tank can be kept in good condition and will not leak, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the service life of the water tank of the solar water heater.
