[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, an embodiment of a control panel of a cold drink machine according to the present utility model is disclosed, which includes a panel body 1 and a control circuit board 2. The control circuit board 2 is connected to the back of the panel body 1. Among them, a water retaining skirt 11 protruding towards the back is provided at the top of the panel body 1, the control circuit board 2 is disposed below the water retaining skirt 11, and the water retaining skirt 11 protrudes towards the side of the control circuit board 2 away from the panel body 1.
[0024] In this embodiment, by providing a water retaining skirt 11 at the top of the panel body 1, the control circuit board 2 connected to the panel body 1 is disposed below the water retaining skirt 11, and the water retaining skirt 11 is protrudingly provided towards the side of the control circuit board 2 away from the panel body 1. The water retaining skirt 11 can prevent the liquid above from dripping onto the control circuit board 2, preventing the control circuit board 2 from getting water and causing circuit failures, thereby realizing the protection of the control circuit board 2.
[0025] Among them, as Figure 2 shown, the body of the cold drink machine in this embodiment further includes a supporting plate 3 and side sealing plates (not shown in the figure) connected to the control panel.
[0026] The side sealing plates are disposed on opposite sides of the supporting plate 3. Hooks 12 are formed on opposite sides of the panel body 1, and the hooks 12 are open downward. Hanging grooves corresponding to the hooks 12 are provided on the side sealing plates, and the panel body 1 is connected to the side sealing plates through the hooks 12.
[0027] The supporting plate 3 is connected and supported by the side sealing plates and a support frame below the supporting plate 3. A compressor, a condenser, a cooling fan, etc. are disposed below the supporting plate 3. In addition to supporting and installing a cold drink preparation container 4 above the supporting plate 3, components such as an evaporator, a scraper, and a driving motor for driving the scraper to rotate are also provided. The supporting plate 3 is located at the back of the panel body 1 and above the position where the control circuit board 2 is located. The supporting plate 3 and the edge of the water retaining skirt 11 of the panel body 1 are hermetically connected through a sealing gasket 5 (see Figure 3 and Figure 5 ). The control circuit board 2 is electrically connected to components such as a compressor, a cooling fan, an evaporator, and a driving motor.
[0028] Among them, in combination with Figure 5, a slide groove 31 is provided on the top of the support plate 3, and the water retaining skirt 11 of this embodiment is recessed downward to form a receiving groove 13. The receiving groove 13 can be C-shaped or U-shaped. The slide groove 31 and the receiving groove 13 are used to accommodate the water receiving tray 6. The water receiving tray 6 is located below the cold drink preparation container 4 to receive the condensed water outside the cold drink preparation container 4 and the remaining solution in the cold drink preparation container 4. In this embodiment, the bottom of the slide groove 31 coincides with the bottom of the receiving groove 13, and the water receiving tray 6 can slide horizontally between the slide groove 31 and the receiving groove 13, and be pulled out of the receiving groove 13. The structure of the slide groove 31 and the receiving groove 13 makes it difficult for the water receiving tray 6 thereon to be overturned.
[0029] In order to compress the sealing gasket 5 between the support plate 3 and the panel body 1 and avoid the leakage of liquid from the support plate 3 and the panel body 1 when the solution overflows from the water receiving tray 6 or the water receiving tray 6 is not installed properly, the water retaining skirt 11 of this embodiment is provided with a connection column 111 protruding downward, and a preset distance is set between the connection column 111 and the edge of the water retaining skirt 11, and the support plate 3 is provided with a support step 32 for abutting against the edge of the water retaining skirt 11, and the support step 32 is provided with a first connection groove 321 adapted to the connection column 111, and the connection column 111 is assembled in the first connection groove 321. In addition, the connection column 111 is provided with a second connection groove 112 with a top opening, and the first connection groove 321 is provided with a third connection groove 322 coaxially arranged with the second connection groove 112, and the water retaining skirt 11 and the support plate 3 are connected by a threaded connector passing through the second connection groove 112 and the third connection groove 322.
[0030] The receiving groove 13 formed by the downward depression of the water retaining skirt 11 can make the liquid flow through the water retaining skirt 11 and gather in the middle low-lying area along the receiving groove 13. In this embodiment, the control circuit board 2 is preferably separated into a first circuit board 21 and a second circuit board 22, and the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22 are respectively arranged on both sides of the lowest part of the receiving groove 13, so that the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22 are staggered with the lowest part of the receiving groove 13 in the vertical direction.
[0031] Once liquid leaks between the supporting plate 3 and the panel body 1, the liquid will be concentrated at the lowest point of the receiving groove 13 and gradually leak downward. The leaked liquid is staggered with the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22 to avoid direct contact between the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22 and the leaked liquid.
[0032] More preferably, the receiving groove 13 is a concave arc surface. In this case, the lowest position area of the receiving groove 13 is small. When leakage occurs, the liquid in the receiving groove 13 drips downward in a row, further reducing the possibility of the leaked liquid contacting the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22.
[0033] To further prevent the control circuit board 2 from being affected by water vapor, in this embodiment, it is preferably that moisture-proof films are laid on the surfaces of the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22. Specifically, the moisture-proof film includes a first moisture-proof film 71 laid on the first circuit board 21 and a second moisture-proof film 72 laid on the second circuit board 22. The first moisture-proof film 71 covers at least the top of the first circuit board 21 and the side of the first circuit board 21 facing away from the panel body 1. The second moisture-proof film 72 covers at least the top of the second circuit board 22 and the side of the second circuit board 22 facing away from the panel body 1. The first moisture-proof film 71 preferably covers the side of the first circuit board 21 close to the lowest point of the receiving groove 13, and the second moisture-proof film 72 preferably covers the side of the second circuit board 22 close to the lowest point of the receiving groove 13, further reducing the influence of the leaked droplets on the first circuit board 21 and the second circuit board 22.
[0034] The above-disclosed is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and of course, it cannot be used to limit the scope of the rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
