Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of water heater installation, in particular to an insulating hanger for a water heater. Background Art

[0002] An electric water heater refers to a water heater that uses electricity as an energy source for heating. It is one of the three major water heaters alongside gas water heaters and solar water heaters. For safe operation, a plastic insulating shell is provided on the surface of the electric water heater.

[0003] The wall-mounted electric water heaters in the prior art need to be installed on the wall through exposed hangers. Since most of the exposed hangers are made of metal, and the hanger part at the connection position with the electric water heater is mostly fixed to the inner tank of the electric water heater, and the inner tank is made of metal material. Therefore, when the electric water heater leaks electricity, the current will be transmitted to the wall and the ground through the exposed hanger, posing a risk to human health. In view of the above defects, for this reason, we propose an insulating hanger for a water heater. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the defects existing in the prior art, and to propose an insulating hanger for a water heater.

Detailed implementation manners

[0026] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a water heater insulation hanging member, including: a wall positioning plate, a water heater bracket, and a fixing structure.

[0028] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the water heater bracket includes two semi-circular brackets 3, two semi-circular limiting frames 4, side baffles 5 respectively fixedly installed on the inner ring surfaces of the two semi-circular brackets 3, and an assembly component disposed inside the semi-circular limiting frame 4 and capable of being assembled with the semi-circular bracket 3 into one body.

[0029] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the assembly component includes an installation groove opened on the inner wall of the semi-circular limiting frame 4, sliding holes respectively opened on the two inner side walls of the installation groove, a limiting pin 6 slidably installed on the inner wall of the installation hole, and a return spring 7 disposed on the inner wall of the installation groove. Slots 18 for inserting the semi-circular limiting frame 4 are respectively opened at both ends of the semi-circular bracket 3, and a limiting groove 8 adapted to the limiting pin 6 is opened on the inner wall of the slot 18. The return spring 7 can drive the limiting pin 6 to extend out of the sliding hole in the initial state.

[0030] Place the water heater on the semi-circular bracket 3. Then, insert the two ends of the semi-circular limit frame 4 into the slots 18 at the two ends of the semi-circular bracket 3 respectively. Then, use the return spring 7 to drive the limit pin 6 to insert into the limit slot 8, so that the semi-circular limit frame 4 and the semi-circular bracket 3 can be fixed as a whole. At this time, the water heater can be restricted within the semi-circular bracket 3 and the semi-circular limit frame 4. The side baffle 5 can limit the two sides of the water heater. Moreover, pressing the limit pin 6 can drive the limit pin 6 to disengage from the limit slot 8, so that the semi-circular limit frame 4 can be quickly removed from the semi-circular bracket 3.

[0031] Refer to Figure 2 , the wall positioning plate includes a horizontal plate 1 and fixing plates 2 fixedly installed on both side surfaces of the horizontal plate 1 respectively.

[0032] Refer to Figures 2-3 , the fixing structure is arranged between the wall positioning plate and the semi-circular bracket 3 for fixing the wall positioning plate and the semi-circular bracket 3 as a whole. The fixing structure includes a longitudinal support plate 9 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the semi-circular bracket 3, connecting plates 10 fixedly installed on both side surfaces of the longitudinal support plate 9, a threaded cylinder 11 fixedly installed on the front surface of the horizontal plate 1, and bolt holes 12 opened on the surface of the connecting plate 10. By using an external bolt to pass through the bolt holes 12 and screw it into the threaded cylinder 11, the horizontal plate 1 and the longitudinal support plate 9 can be fixed as a whole.

[0033] Through holes 14 for external expansion screws to pass through are opened on the surfaces of the fixing plate 2 and the longitudinal support plate 9. Pass the expansion bolts through the through holes 14 on the fixing plate 2 and the longitudinal support plate 9 respectively, and then fix the expansion bolts to the wall, so that the horizontal plate 1 and the longitudinal support plate 9 can be fixed on the wall.

[0034] Refer to Figure 3 , a reinforcing rib 13 is fixedly installed on the front surface of the longitudinal support plate 9, and the other end of the reinforcing rib 13 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the semi-circular bracket 3. The strength of the semi-circular bracket 3 can be improved by using the reinforcing rib 13.

[0035] After the water heater bracket is fixed on the wall, then place the water heater on the semi-circular bracket 3. The semi-circular bracket 3 can be used to lift and support the water heater. Then, use the assembly component to fix the semi-circular limit frame 4 on the semi-circular bracket 3, so that the water heater can be restricted within the semi-circular bracket 3 and the semi-circular limit frame 4. Compared with the prior art, this device can quickly fix the water heater by using the semi-circular bracket 3, the semi-circular limit frame 4, and the side baffle 5, and at the same time, it is also convenient for disassembly. Moreover, by using the plastic shell of the water heater to contact the semi-circular bracket 3, the semi-circular limit frame 4, and the side baffle 5, an insulating layer can be formed by using the plastic shell of the water heater, so as to avoid the transmission of current to the wall and the ground.

[0036] Refer to Figure 2 andFigure 5 , a positioning component is provided between the longitudinal support plate 9 and the cross plate 1. The positioning component includes a positioning block 15 fixedly installed on the back surface of the longitudinal support plate 9, and two positioning grooves 16 respectively opened on the front surface of the cross plate 1. The positioning grooves 16 are adapted to the positioning block 15, and the distance between the two positioning grooves 16 is equal to the length of the water heater.

[0037] After installing the wall positioning plate on the wall, then the positioning block 15 can be inserted into the positioning groove 16. At this time, the distance between the two semi-circular brackets 3 will be equal to the length of the water heater, so that the positions of the two semi-circular brackets 3 can be quickly determined without using a ruler for measurement, avoiding the problem of incorrect hole opening caused by measurement errors.

[0038] A support pad 17 is fixedly installed on the back surface of the longitudinal support plate 9, and the thickness of the support pad 17 is equal to the thickness of the cross plate 1. The support pad 17 can fill the gap between the cross plate 1 and the longitudinal support plate 9 to prevent the longitudinal support plate 9 from shaking during installation.

[0039] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent replacement or change made by those skilled in the art according to the technical solution and concept of the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
