[0041] The present utility model provides a gas device with high heat exchange efficiency and assembly efficiency.
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , in an embodiment of the present utility model, the gas device 10 includes a combustion heat exchange component 100 and a fan component 200. The combustion heat exchange component 100 has a combustion chamber 121; the fan component 200 includes a housing 210, and the housing 210 is disposed on the combustion heat exchange component 100 and communicates with the combustion chamber 121; the combustion heat exchange component 100 includes a cover plate 110. One end of the cover plate 110 close to the housing 210 has a first edge 111, the housing 210 has a second edge 211 corresponding to the first edge 111, the first edge 111 abuts against the second edge 211, the first edge 111 is provided with a first connecting portion 112, the second edge 211 is provided with a first mating portion 212, and the first connecting portion 112 is in limit snap connection with the first mating portion 212.
[0043] It is understandable that the gas equipment 10 includes but is not limited to gas water heaters, gas-fired hot water heating boilers, etc. The combustion and heat exchange assembly 100 includes a combustion assembly 120 and a heat exchanger 130. The combustion assembly 120 has a combustion chamber 121. The heat exchanger 130 is arranged above the combustion chamber 121. The gas in the combustion assembly 120 burns in the combustion chamber 121 to generate high-temperature flue gas. The high-temperature flue gas is transported under the action of the fan assembly 200 to exchange heat with the heat exchanger 130 to heat the cold water flow path of the heat exchanger 130. The structure of the combustion assembly 120 can be various, which is not specifically limited herein. It only needs to have a combustion chamber 121 capable of burning gas.
[0044] In one embodiment, the combustion assembly 120 includes a burner and a box body. The box body has a cover plate 110. The cover plate 110 can be an independent part or a part of the box body. That is to say, the box body can be composed of multiple plate bodies. The multiple plate bodies can be of an integral structure, or they can be of a split structure. Or, some of the plate bodies are of an integral structure and the other part of the plate bodies are of a split structure, which is not specifically limited herein. For example, the box body includes a frame body and a cover plate 110. The frame body has a semi-surrounding structure with a side opening. The cover plate 110 is covered at the side opening of the frame body. The frame body and the cover plate 110 enclose a combustion chamber 121 that penetrates up and down. The combustion chamber 121 is communicated with the open end of the burner. Among them, the frame body and the cover plate 110 are respectively independent parts. The cover plate 110 and the frame body are assembled together by, but not limited to, fastener connection, snap connection and other methods; or, the cover plate 110 and the frame body are of an integral structure; the frame body has a first side plate and two second side plates respectively arranged on opposite sides of the first side plate. Both second side plates extend forward relative to the first side plate so that a side opening is formed at the front side of the frame body. The cover plate 110 is covered at the front side opening of the frame body. The first side plate is arranged at the rear side of the frame body. The connection mode between the first side plate and the two second side plates can be integrally formed or assembled together by riveting, welding, fastener connection and other methods.
[0045] Furthermore, the box body can be arranged at the top open end of the burner so that the combustion chamber 121 is communicated with the burner. Of course, in another embodiment, when the gas equipment 10 adopts inverted combustion, the burner can also be arranged at the top of the combustion chamber 121 of the box body so that the burner is communicated with the combustion chamber 121. The cover plate 110 can be located at the front side of the box body. Of course, the cover plate 110 can also be located at the left side, right side, rear side, etc. of the box body, which is not specifically limited herein. In this solution, the cover plate 110 is located at the front side of the box body. It should be noted that the orientation such as the "front side" of the box body is based on the orientation shown in the drawings, rather than each component must have a specific orientation. The front side refers to the orientation of the gas equipment 10 facing the user. Please refer to the drawings specifically.
[0046] Further, when the gas equipment 10 is operating, the fan assembly 200 operates to generate a negative pressure in the combustion chamber 121. The gas in the combustion chamber 121 burns to generate high-temperature flue gas. The fan assembly 200 includes a housing 210 and a fan main body. The housing 210 can be disposed on the top of the heat exchanger 130. When the fan main body operates, the high-temperature flue gas passes through the combustion chamber 121 and the heat exchanger 130 from bottom to top and then enters the housing 210. The housing 210 functions to gather the flue gas, and finally the flue gas is discharged from the smoke outlet of the housing 210. Optionally, when assembling the fan assembly 200, the housing 210 of the fan assembly 200 can be disposed on the top of the heat exchanger 130, and the two end plates 132 of the heat exchanger 130 can be used to position and support the housing 210.
[0047] Further, the first edge 111 of the cover plate 110 abuts against the second edge 211 of the housing 210, so that there is no gap or a small gap between the cover plate 110 and the housing 210. The high-temperature flue gas generated by the combustion of the gas in the combustion chamber 121 is not likely to leak from between the cover plate 110 and the housing 210, and the cold air outside the housing 210 is not likely to enter the housing 210 to increase the load of the fan assembly 200. Thus, it is beneficial to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the gas equipment 10, reduce the emission of unburned carbon monoxide, and improve the heat exchange efficiency and use safety of the gas equipment 10.
[0048] Further, the first connecting portion 112 and the first mating portion 212 are limited and clamped. The first connecting portion 112 and the first mating portion 212 can adopt an assembly method of a hook and a clamping portion, and the clamping portion can be a clamping hole or a clamping groove; the first connecting portion 112 and the first mating portion 212 can also adopt an assembly method of a barb and a clamping portion, and the clamping portion can be a clamping hole or a clamping groove, which is not specifically limited herein. With such a setting, the assembly efficiency is improved and the structure is simplified.
[0049] The gas equipment 10 of the present utility model includes a combustion heat exchange assembly 100 and a fan assembly 200. The combustion heat exchange assembly 100 has a combustion chamber 121. The fan assembly 200 includes a housing 210. The housing 210 is disposed on the combustion heat exchange assembly 100 and communicated with the combustion chamber 121. The first edge 111 of the cover plate 110 abuts against the second edge 211 of the housing 210, so that the edge of the cover plate 110 is closely matched with the edge of the housing 210. The high-temperature flue gas generated by the combustion of the gas in the combustion chamber 121 is not likely to leak from between the cover plate 110 and the housing 210, reducing the risk of high-temperature flue gas leakage. Further, it is beneficial to improve the heat exchange efficiency of the gas equipment 10. And the first connecting portion 112 of the cover plate 110 and the first mating portion 212 of the housing 210 are limited and clamped, which is beneficial to improve the assembly efficiency of the gas equipment 10. It can be seen that the present utility model provides a gas equipment 10 with high heat exchange efficiency and assembly efficiency.
[0050] To further ensure the stability of the assembly of the cover plate 110, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 , in one embodiment, the first edge 111 is further provided with a second connecting portion 113, and the cover body 210 is provided with a second mating portion 213 corresponding to the second connecting portion 113. The second connecting portion 113 abuts against the cover body 210 and is connected to the second mating portion 213.
[0051] It can be understood that the number of the first connecting portions 112 can be multiple. The second connecting portion 113 can be disposed between the multiple first connecting portions 112. Of course, the second connecting portion 113 can also be spaced from the first connecting portion 112. The first connecting portion 112 and the second connecting portion 113 are arranged side by side along the extending direction of the first edge 111. The cover body 210 is provided with a second mating portion 213. The second connecting portion 113 is disposed on the top of the cover plate 110 and is connected to the second mating portion 213. The second connecting portion 113 can abut against the inner wall surface of the cover body 210, and of course, it can also abut against the outer wall surface of the cover body 210. The connection manner between the second connecting portion 113 and the second mating portion 213 can be connected by a fastener or by a snap structure, which is not specifically limited herein.
[0052] In one embodiment, the second connecting portion 113 and the second mating portion 213 are correspondingly provided with assembly holes 11 for the fastener to pass through. The second connecting portion 113 is locked to the second mating portion 213 by the fastener. During assembly, the second connecting portion 113 is abutted against the second mating portion 213 along a preset assembly direction, so that the assembly holes 11 on the second connecting portion 113 are aligned with the assembly holes 11 on the second mating portion 213, and then the fastener is sequentially passed through the two assembly holes 11 along the preset assembly direction and locked, so that the assembly is simple and convenient, which is beneficial to improving the assembly stability of the cover plate 110. Among them, the fastener includes but is not limited to screws, rivets, etc. In this solution, the second connecting portion 113 abuts against the inner wall surface of the cover body 210, so that the cover plate 110 can be closely fitted with the inner wall of the cover body 210, reducing the risk of leakage of high-temperature flue gas between the cover plate 110 and the cover body 210, and thus being beneficial to improving the heat exchange efficiency of the gas equipment 10.
[0053] Furthermore, there are multiple ways to form the second connecting portion 113. For example, a first flanging extending upward is provided on the first edge 111 of the cover plate 110, and this first flanging forms the second connecting portion 113. The first flanging is provided with an assembly hole 11. A second mating portion 213 is provided on the cover body 210. The second mating portion 213 can be a part of the cover body 210 itself or an additional part added. It only needs to be provided with an assembly hole 11 on the second mating portion 213. In this embodiment, the second connecting portion 113 and the cover plate 110 are of an integral structure, and the cover body 210 itself has the second mating portion 213, so that the structure is simple and reliable and is convenient for production and manufacturing. Of course, in some embodiments, assembly can also be carried out by welding or other means.
[0054] To improve the assembly stability and assembly efficiency of the cover plate 110 and the cover body 210, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in an embodiment, one of the first connecting portion 112 and the first mating portion 212 includes a barb 114, and the other includes a locking hole 214, and the barb 114 is snap-fitted with the locking hole 214. It can be understood that the opening direction of the barb 114 can face the inside of the cover body 210 or the outside of the cover body 210, and it is not specifically limited here. The structure of the barb 114 is used to hook in the locking hole 214, making the assembly of the cover plate 110 and the cover body 210 more stable.
[0055] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , in an embodiment, the other of the first connecting portion 112 and the first mating portion 212 further includes a first bending portion 215, and the first bending portion 215 is inserted into the barb 114. It can be understood that the first bending portion 215 is inserted into the barb 114, so that the first bending portion 215 can further limit the barb 114, thus reducing the situation of the barb 114 shaking in the locking hole 214 and improving the assembly stability of the cover plate 110 and the cover body 210. In addition, the inner wall of the barb 114 abuts against the first bending portion 215, so that the first bending portion 215 can also support the barb 114 and the cover plate 110, further improving the assembly stability of the cover plate 110 and the cover body 210.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 6 , in an embodiment, the barb 114 is provided on the first edge 111, the opening direction of the barb 114 faces the outside of the cover body 210, the locking hole 214 is provided on the cover body 210, the second edge 211 is provided with the first bending portion 215 extending toward the inside of the cover body 210, and the front end of the barb 114 extends out of the cover body 210 from the locking hole 214.
[0057] It can be understood that the present solution is described by taking the cover body 210 being disposed above the combustion chamber 121 as an example. A barb 114 is provided on the first edge 111 at the upper end of the cover plate 110, and the opening direction of the barb 114 faces the outside of the cover body 210, specifically, the opening direction of the barb 114 faces the front side of the cover body 210. A first bending portion 215 and a clamping hole 214 are provided at the second edge 211 at the lower end of the cover body 210. The clamping hole 214 is located above the first bending portion 215, and the first bending portion 215 is bent toward the inside of the cover body 210. When assembling the cover plate 110, the barb 114 of the cover plate 110 is clamped into the clamping hole 214 of the cover body 210 along the preset assembly direction, and the first bending portion 215 is clamped into the barb 114, so that the assembly is simple and convenient, and it is beneficial for the first edge 111 to abut against the second edge 211, improving the assembly efficiency and reducing the assembly gap.
[0058] Please refer to Figures 5 to 8 , in an embodiment, the barb 114 includes an extension section 115, a first limiting section 116 and a second limiting section 117 that are connected in sequence. The connection between the extension section 115 and the first limiting section 116 is bent, the connection between the first limiting section 116 and the second limiting section 117 is bent, the second limiting section 117 abuts against the first bending portion 215, and at least part of the second limiting section 117 is clamped into the clamping hole 214.
[0059] It can be understood that the extension section 115, the first limiting section 116 and the second limiting section 117 enclose a semi-surrounding structure with one side open, and the opening direction faces the outside of the cover body 210. One end of the second limiting section 117 is connected to the first limiting section 116, and the other end of the second limiting section 117 passes through the clamping hole 214 and extends outside the cover body 210 to prevent the front end of the second limiting section 117 from occupying the internal space of the cover body 210. As for the bending angles of the first limiting section 116 and the second limiting section 117, there is no limitation, and they can be right angles, acute angles, or obtuse angles, etc. In the present solution, the bending angle between the extension section 115 and the first limiting section 116 is a right angle, which is convenient for processing. In addition, the bending angles of the first limiting section 116 and the second limiting section 117 are not limited, and they can be right angles, acute angles, or obtuse angles, etc.
[0060] In one embodiment, the distance between the extension section 115 and the second limiting section 117 is gradually enlarged in the direction from the first limiting section 116 towards the second edge 211. With this arrangement, that is, the bending angles of the first limiting section 116 and the second limiting section 117 are obtuse angles, so that the opening direction of the barb 114 is flared, which is beneficial to improving the smoothness of the barb 114 being clamped in the clamping hole 214. Optionally, the second limiting section 117 extends obliquely upwards and away from the extension section 115, which can play a certain guiding role in the installation of the barb 114.
[0061] In one embodiment, one of the first edge 111 and the second edge 211 is provided with a second bending portion 118 extending in the up-down direction, and the other has a mating surface 216 opposite to the second bending portion 118, and the second bending portion 118 abuts against the mating surface 216.
