Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of shells, in particular to the technical field of an aluminum alloy shell structure. Background Art

[0002] As one of the increasingly important household appliances in modern life, the clothes care machine provides people with a convenient clothes cleaning solution. In recent years, more and more clothes care devices have emerged on the market. For example, in the similar clothes care machine products currently on the market, the steam generating device often does not generate pressurized water vapor. Therefore, the steam diffuses into the internal space for caring clothes by floating. At the same time, the existing clothes care machine is not provided with a special steam nozzle. Since the internal space for placing clothes in the clothes care machine is generally relatively large, it takes a relatively long time for the whole machine to be filled with the box by floating diffusion alone. In this way, the waiting time of the user is relatively long. At the same time, the floating diffused steam has no acting force on the clothes and cannot perform flushing, dust removal and wrinkle removal.

[0003] To solve the problems raised in the background art, for example, the application number CN201820895778.7 discloses a clothes care machine, which includes a cabinet body composed of an inner container and an outer shell. A steam generating device is arranged at the bottom of the cabinet body and between the inner container and the outer shell. The steam generating device is communicated with the inside of the inner container of the clothes care machine through a steam nozzle fixedly arranged on the inner container. By providing a fixed connection part for connecting the steam nozzle and the inner container, and at the same time providing a pipeline connection part for connecting the steam nozzle and the steam pipeline, the two connection structures are separately arranged, which can effectively ensure the connection stability and the sealing performance of the pipeline connection. The nozzle position stability can be better ensured by the force-bearing support of the pipeline structure on the nozzle. At the same time, the nozzle can be designed to better meet the use requirements according to needs, without worrying about the size and weight of the nozzle affecting the pipeline installation. However, this structure still has the following defects:

[0004] This structure uses a simple frame to cooperate with the outer shell panel and the inner container for assembly and connection, and then is fixed by screws. In this way, the assembly is inconvenient and the structure is not very stable, and the joints between the frame and the outer shell and between the frame and the inner container are obvious, and the aesthetics is not high; in addition, during the clothes care process, when the clothes shaking device is started, the shaking system will apply a certain force to the equipment frame. After long-term use, the connecting screws become loose, and gaps are easily generated at the connection between the frame and the panel, with severe shaking and loud noise.

[0005] To solve the problems raised in the above technologies, for example, Patent Application No. CN202020286596.7 discloses an installation and connection structure for the side panel of the outer shell of a clothing care machine, which includes two mounting plates respectively fixedly connected to both sides of the outer shell side panel and multiple shoulder screws spacedly installed on the corresponding frame columns. The two mounting plates are perpendicular to the outer shell side panel. One side of the outer shell side panel is hung and positioned through an L-shaped mounting notch, and the other side is fixedly connected through fixing screws. On the premise of ensuring structural stability, the installation is improved to be fast. In addition, the mounting plate is attached to the frame column for installation. In this way, the mounting plate can be hidden in the gap between the inner liner and the frame column, which can limit the position of the mounting plate and make the overall appearance more beautiful. However, this structure still has the following defects:

[0006] Although this structure uses multiple shoulder screws for fixation, when the machine needs to be repaired, the disassembly and installation of the outer shell are not convenient enough, the operation is rather cumbersome, and it is not stable enough during long-term use. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present utility model is to solve the problems in the prior art and propose an aluminum alloy outer shell structure that can quickly disassemble and install the outer shell, with simple and convenient operation, and is more stable during long-term use.

The first shell and the second shell are clamped and installed. One end of the first shell extends downward to form a bending part, and the other end of the first shell is horizontally provided with a first extension part. The bottom end of the bending part is provided with a first clamping part, and the rightmost end of the first extension part is provided with a second clamping part. The inner side of the first clamping part is provided with a first clamping groove, and the inner side of the second clamping part is provided with a second clamping groove. One end of the second shell is horizontally provided with a second extension part, and the other end of the second shell extends downward to form a third extension part. The third extension part is in an L-shaped structure. A clamping protrusion part is vertically provided above the second extension part. The clamping protrusion part and the first clamping groove are clamped and installed with each other, and the third extension part abuts against the second clamping groove.

[0009] Preferably, first sawteeth are symmetrically arranged on the inner side surface of the second clamping groove.

[0010] Preferably, several third clamping parts are arranged on the inner side surface of the first shell, and a third clamping groove is arranged inside each third clamping part. Second sawteeth are symmetrically arranged on the inner side surface of each third clamping groove.

[0013] Preferably, the first housing and the second housing are detachably installed.

[0014] Advantages of the present utility model:

[0015] With the cooperation of the first housing and the second housing, the outer shell can be quickly disassembled and installed. First, the engaging protrusion on the second housing is engaged with the first engaging groove on the first housing for installation.
