[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the utility model discloses an embodiment of a disassembly and installation structure of a water receiving tray 1, comprising a water receiving tray 1, a support frame 2 and side sealing plates 3 arranged on the left and right sides of the support frame 2. The top of the support frame 2 is provided with a receiving groove 21, the top of the water receiving tray 1 is provided with a water collecting chamber 11, and the water receiving tray 1 can be horizontally unidirectionally withdrawn along the extension direction of the receiving groove 21; the side sealing plate 3 is provided with a first locking structure 31, and the water receiving tray 1 is provided with a second locking structure 12. When the water collecting chamber 11 completely enters the receiving groove 21, the first locking structure 31 is elastically engaged with the second locking structure 12 to prevent the water receiving tray 1 from moving along the extension direction of the receiving groove 21.

[0027] In this embodiment, side sealing plates 3 are provided on opposite sides of the support bracket 2, and a receiving groove 21 is provided at the top of the support bracket 2. The water collection cavity 11 of the water receiving tray 1 can be received in the receiving groove 21. The first locking structure 31 provided on the side sealing plate 3 is elastically clamped with the second locking structure 12 provided on the water receiving tray 1 to lock the water receiving tray 1, and the water collection cavity 11 is kept in the receiving groove 21 to receive condensed water and the solution flowing out from the material storage cover. The assembly is convenient and reliable. At the same time, the elastic clamping structure makes the water receiving tray 1 easy to disassemble. The water receiving tray 1 can be horizontally and unidirectionally withdrawn along the extension direction of the receiving groove 21. When the water receiving tray 1 in the receiving groove 21 needs to be taken out, the water receiving tray 1 can be withdrawn smoothly to prevent the liquid in the water collection cavity 11 from entering the support bracket 2 and the components around it.

[0028] In the support bracket 2 of this embodiment, a first limiting protrusion 22 is provided in the direction away from the extraction direction of the water receiving tray 1 (i.e., one end of the receiving groove 21 away from the first locking structure 31). For a cold drink machine, in addition to installing the water receiving tray 1 on the support bracket 2, the support bracket 2 also supports and installs a material storage cover 4, as well as other functional components such as an evaporator (not shown in the figure), a scraper (not shown in the figure), and a drive motor (not shown in the figure). The space formed by the bottom of the support bracket 2 and the side sealing plate 3 is used to install functional components such as a compressor (not shown in the figure) and a condenser (not shown in the figure). Among them, the material storage cover 4 is arranged above the water collection cavity 11, and the bottom of the material storage cover 4 extends into the water collection cavity 11. The evaporator and the scraper extend into the material storage cover 4, and the drive motor is installed on the first limiting protrusion 22 or at one end of the first limiting protrusion 22 away from the receiving groove 21.

[0029] The water receiving tray 1 of this embodiment specifically includes a water receiving part a and a locking part b. The water receiving part a is provided with the water collection cavity 11, and the locking part b is provided with the second locking structure 12.

[0030] When the first locking structure 31 is clamped with the second locking structure 12, the locking part b abuts against one end of the support bracket 2, and / or the water receiving part a abuts against the first limiting protrusion 22, so as to limit both ends of the water receiving tray 1 when the water receiving tray 1 moves, ensuring that the water collection cavity 11 completely enters the receiving groove 21, and the water collection cavity 11 can completely receive the condensed water and the flowing solution on the surface of the upper material storage cover 4.

[0031] The support bracket 2 is provided with second limiting protrusions 23 on two opposite groove walls of the receiving groove 21. The second limiting protrusions 23 protrude from the groove walls. The water receiving part a is arranged below the second limiting protrusions 23 and is in sliding contact with the second limiting protrusions 23 to prevent the water receiving tray 1 from moving up and down in the receiving groove 21 when being withdrawn, resulting in liquid spilling.

[0032] Preferably, guiding ribs 13 for sliding contact with the receiving groove 21 are provided on both outer walls of the water receiving part a to prevent the water receiving tray 1 from shaking.

[0033] The second limiting protrusion 23 is provided with a limiting sliding groove 231 for limiting the upper and lower positions of the material storage cover 4. The limiting sliding groove 231 extends along the extending direction of the receiving groove 21. One end of the limiting sliding groove 231 close to the first limiting protrusion 22 is closed, and the material storage cover 4 is slidably connected to the limiting sliding groove 231. The material storage cover 4 is mounted on the supporting bracket 2. The material storage cover 4 can slide relative to the supporting bracket 2 along the extending direction of the receiving groove 21 and can be withdrawn in the same direction as the water receiving tray 1. In addition, the supporting bracket 2 is provided with third limiting protrusions 24 on two opposite groove walls of the receiving groove 21. The third limiting protrusions 24 protrude towards the top of the supporting bracket 2, and the material storage cover 4 is slidably connected to the third limiting protrusions 24. The third limiting protrusions 24 play a role in limiting the left and right positions of the material storage cover 4.

[0034] The limiting sliding groove 231 on the supporting bracket 2 for limiting the upper and lower positions of the material storage cover 4 and the third limiting protrusions 24 for limiting the left and right positions of the material storage cover 4 realize the spatial positioning and assembly of the material storage rack; the guiding ribs 13 and the receiving groove 21 for limiting the left and right positions of the water receiving tray 1 and the second limiting protrusion 23 for limiting the upper and lower positions of the water receiving tray 1 can ensure that the condensed water and the flowing solution on the surface of the material storage cover 4 can all gather in the water collecting cavity 11 of the water receiving tray 1.

[0035] Among them, the first locking structure 31 is an elastic buckle formed on the side sealing plate 3, and the second locking structure 12 is a limiting groove formed on the water receiving tray 1. The extending direction of the limiting groove intersects with the extending direction of the receiving groove 21. In addition, the first locking structure 31 can be set as a limiting groove and the second locking structure 12 can be set as an elastic buckle, which can also achieve the effects of convenient disassembly and assembly and stable detachment.

[0036] Such as Figure 4 , the elastic buckle includes an elastic arm 311 and a convex buckle 312. The elastic arm 311 is formed on the side sealing plate 3, and the convex buckle 312 is formed at the end of the elastic arm 311. The convex buckle 312 is arranged at one end of the receiving groove 21 and protrudes towards the water receiving tray 1. The limiting groove preferably extends in the vertical direction.

[0037] In this embodiment, the elastic arm 311 is arranged along the extending direction of the receiving groove 21, and the convex buckle 312 is arranged at the end of the elastic arm 311 far from the first limiting protrusion 22, so that while the side sealing plate 3 is elastically clamped with the water receiving tray 1, the space size of the side sealing plate 3 can be compressed as much as possible, thereby helping to reduce the volume of the cold drink machine.

[0038] The above-disclosed is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and of course, it cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present utility model. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present utility model still fall within the scope covered by the present utility model.
