[0002] Currently, the steam generating part mainly includes an upper pot body, a lower pot body and a heating chassis. An installation part is provided on the aluminum plate of the heating plate. The installation part has an installation hole. Screws and heat insulation gaskets are used to fix the installation part to the shell of the product. In this fixing method, when the steam generating part is powered on and heated, the temperature of the heating plate rises sharply, and the highest temperature during operation can reach 200°C. There is a risk that the temperature conducted to the shell of the product through the installation part is too high. Under long-term operation, there is a safety risk that the installation part is deformed and melted. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.

[0004] To this end, the utility model provides a laundry treatment device.

[0005] In view of this, the utility model provides a laundry treatment device, including: a shell; a steam generating part, including a first pot body, a second pot body and a heating plate. The first pot body and the second pot body are covered with each other to enclose a cavity. The heating plate is arranged at one end of the first pot body for heating the cavity. The second pot body is provided with a water inlet and a steam outlet. At least one of the first pot body and the second pot body is provided with an installation part. The installation part is connected to the shell and is spaced apart from the heating plate.

[0006] The laundry treatment device provided by the utility model includes a shell and a steam generating part. The steam generating part includes a first pot body, a second pot body and a heating plate. The second pot body is covered with the first pot body to enclose a cavity for containing liquid and steam. The heating plate is arranged at one end of the first pot body. The second pot body is provided with a steam outlet and a water inlet. Liquid enters the cavity through the water inlet and becomes steam through the heating of the heating plate, and then the steam is discharged through the steam outlet to realize the treatment of clothes such as ironing. Among them, at least one of the first pot body and the second pot body is provided with an installation part. The installation part is connected to the shell, realizing the installation of the steam generating part in the shell. Moreover, the installation part is spaced apart from the heating plate, so that there is a certain distance between the installation part and the heating plate, thereby making the installation part less affected by the temperature of the heating plate, making the temperature of the installation part lower, reducing the heat transfer amount between the installation part and the shell, and reducing the risk of heat deformation, melting and fracture of the shell and the installation part. At the same time, the installation part is arranged on the first pot body or the second pot body, which can effectively reduce the torque exerted by the first pot body and the second pot body on the installation part, reduce the strength requirements for the material and structural design of the shell, and thus reduce the material cost and design difficulty.

[0007] According to the laundry treatment device provided by the present utility model, the following additional technical features may also be included:

[0008] In some embodiments, optionally, the installation part is provided at the connection between the first pot body and the second pot body.

[0009] In this embodiment, the installation part is provided at the connection between the first pot body and the second pot body, which ensures the distance between the installation part and the heating plate, makes the installation part located in the middle of the cavity, and thus can not only reduce the temperature of the shell and the position where the installation part is located, but also reduce the torque exerted on the installation part by the first pot body and the second pot body.

[0010] In some embodiments, optionally, the first pot body includes a first pot rim, the second pot body includes a second pot rim, and the first pot rim and the second pot rim are welded and connected along the circumference of the first pot rim; the installation part is provided on the first pot rim and extends outward from the first pot body, or the installation part is provided on the second pot rim and extends outward from the second pot body.

[0011] In this embodiment, the first pot body includes a first pot rim, the second pot body includes a second pot rim, and the first pot body and the second pot body are welded and connected at the first pot rim and the second pot rim, which improves the connection strength between the first pot body and the second pot body and increases the pressure of the steam in the cavity. Among them, when the installation part is arranged on the first pot body, the installation part is arranged at the first pot rim and extends outward from the first pot body. While ensuring the distance between the installation part and the heating plate, it is also convenient for the manufacture of the installation part and reduces the processing difficulty. Correspondingly, when the installation part is arranged on the second pot body, the installation part is arranged at the second pot rim and extends outward from the second pot body. Thus, while ensuring the distance between the installation part and the heating plate, it is also convenient for the manufacture of the installation part and reduces the processing difficulty.

[0012] In some embodiments, optionally, the installation part and the first pot body are of an integral structure, or the installation part and the second pot body are of an integral structure.

Thus, the integrity and sealing performance of the wall surface of the first pot body are improved. Correspondingly, when the installation part is arranged on the second pot body, the installation part and the second pot body are of an integral structure, which improves the connection strength between the installation part and the second pot body, is also convenient for the manufacture of the installation part, reduces the processing difficulty, and does not require the use of connecting parts between the installation part and the second pot body. Thus, the integrity and sealing performance of the wall surface of the second pot body are improved.

[0014] In some embodiments, optionally, both the first pot body and the second pot body are stamping and drawing parts. The stamping and drawing parts are provided with clamping edges, and the installation part is at least a part of the clamping edge of the stamping and drawing parts.

[0015] In this embodiment, both the first pot body and the second pot body are stamping and drawing parts, that is, both the first pot body and the second pot body are formed by the stamping and drawing process. The stamping and drawing parts are provided with clamping edges, which can make the wall thickness of the first pot body and the second pot body uniform and prevent cracking. After the drawing forming, the clamping edges need to be removed. Since the installation part is a part of the clamping edge of the stamping and drawing parts, after removing a part of the clamping edge, the remaining part of the clamping edge is the installation part, so that the forming of the installation part and the process of cutting the clamping edge are completed together, reducing the processing procedures, lowering the processing difficulty of the installation part, reducing the material consumption, and thus reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0016] In some embodiments, optionally, the number of the installation parts is multiple, and the multiple installation parts are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the first pot body or the second pot body.

[0020] In some embodiments, optionally, the steam generating part is suspended in the housing through the installation part.

[0021] In this embodiment, the steam generating part is suspended in the housing through the installation part, thus avoiding the situation that the heating plate at the bottom directly contacts the housing and causes the housing to be deformed by heat.

[0022] In some embodiments, optionally, the heating plate is welded to the first pot body.

[0023] In this embodiment, the heating plate is welded to the first pot body, improving the connection strength between the heating plate and the first pot body.

[0024] In some embodiments, optionally, the top wall of the second pot body includes at least one inclined surface, which is inclined towards the direction close to the first pot body, and the water inlet and the steam outlet are arranged on the inclined surface.

[0025] In this embodiment, at least one inclined surface is provided on the top wall of the second pot body. The provision of the inclined surface can provide an avoidance space for the installation of components. The steam outlet and the water inlet are arranged on the inclined surface, which can facilitate the installation of the pipes on the steam outlet and the water inlet and reduce the overall space occupied by the steam generating part.

[0026] Optionally, when the top wall of the second pot body includes at least two inclined surfaces, the at least two inclined surfaces are arranged back to back and inclined towards the direction close to the first pot body. The water inlet and the steam outlet are respectively arranged on two opposite inclined surfaces or on the same inclined surface.

[0027] In this embodiment, at least two inclined surfaces are provided on the top wall of the second pot body. The provision of the inclined surface can provide an avoidance space for the installation of components. When the steam outlet and the water inlet are respectively arranged on two opposite inclined surfaces, it can facilitate the installation of the pipes on the steam outlet and the water inlet and reduce the overall space occupied by the steam generating part.

[0028] In some embodiments, optionally, the installation part is provided with an installation hole, and the installation part is connected to the housing through the installation hole.

[0029] In this embodiment, the installation part is connected to the housing through the installation hole, which improves the connection strength between the steam generating part and the housing, reduces the contact area between the installation part and the housing, and further reduces the heat transfer amount from the steam generating part to the housing.

[0030] In some embodiments, optionally, the clothing treatment device further includes: an ironing part, which is arranged on the housing and is communicated with the steam outlet.

[0031] In this embodiment, the ironing part is communicated with the steam outlet, and the steam is output through the ironing part, thereby realizing the ironing of clothes.

[0032] In some embodiments, optionally, the clothing treatment device further includes: a heat insulation pad, which is arranged between the installation part and the housing.

In addition, by arranging the installation part on the pot body, the highest temperature of the installation part is reduced, and the heat resistance requirement of the heat insulation pad can also be reduced, thereby reducing the material cost.

Detailed Embodiments

[0049] To more clearly understand the above - mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0050] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present utility model. However, the present utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] Next, refer to Figures 3 to 9 to describe a laundry treatment device according to some embodiments of the present utility model.

[0052] As Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 9 shown, according to an embodiment of the present utility model, a laundry treatment device is provided, including: a housing 1; a steam - generating part 2, including a first pot body 202, a second pot body 204, and a heating plate 22. The first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 are covered with each other to enclose a cavity 20. The heating plate 22 is disposed at one end of the first pot body 202 for heating the cavity 20. The second pot body 204 is provided with a water inlet 24 and a steam outlet 26. At least one of the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 is provided with a mounting part 28. The mounting part 28 is connected to the housing 1 and is spaced from the heating plate 22.

[0053] The clothing treatment device provided by the present utility model includes a housing 1 and a steam generation part 2. The steam generation part 2 includes a first pot body 202 and a second pot body 204. The first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 are covered and enclosed to form a cavity 20 for accommodating liquid and steam. A heating plate 22 is arranged at one end of the first pot body 202. The second pot body 204 is provided with a water inlet 24 and a steam outlet 26. Liquid enters the cavity 20 through the water inlet 24 and becomes steam through the heating of the heating plate 22, and then the steam is discharged from the steam outlet 26 to achieve the treatment of clothing such as ironing. Among them, at least one of the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 is provided with an installation part 28. The installation part 28 is connected to the housing 1, realizing the installation of the steam generation part 2 in the housing 1. Moreover, the installation part 28 and the heating plate 22 are arranged at intervals, so that there is a certain distance between the installation part 28 and the heating plate 22, thus making the installation part 28 less affected by the temperature of the heating plate 22, making the temperature of the installation part 28 lower, the heat transfer amount between the installation part 28 and the housing 1 lower, and reducing the risk of heat deformation, melting and fracture of the housing 1 and the installation part 28. At the same time, the installation part 28 is arranged on the first pot body 202 or the second pot body 204, which can effectively reduce the torque exerted by the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 on the installation part 28, reduce the strength requirements for the material and structural design of the housing 1, and further reduce the material cost and design difficulty.

[0054] Optionally, the installation part 28 is arranged in the middle of the cavity 20, so that the installation part 28 is far away from the heating plate 22.

[0055] It can be understood that the pot body (such as the steam generation part 2) includes a first pot body 202 and a second pot body 204. When the heating plate 22 is heating, the heating plate 22 has a relatively high temperature. The installation part 28 is arranged on the pot body. Since the surface area of the pot body is large and the liquid inside the pot body absorbs heat, the temperature of the installation part 28 on the pot body is significantly lower than the temperature at the heating plate 22, reducing the maximum temperature of the installation part 28 during the operation of the steam generation part 2, and further reducing the risk of heat deformation, melting and fracture of the housing 1 and the installation part 28.

[0056] In addition, due to product design or manufacturing errors, the pot body may be fixed to the product at a certain angle with the horizontal plane. As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, when the installation part 3' is located on the heating plate 2' at the bottom, the gravity of the pot body 1' itself on the center of gravity M will generate a continuous torque M on the positions B where the installation holes of the installation part 3' are located a = M x + M y = G x × B y + G y × B x; where M in this formula x is the moment generated by the pot body 1' on the mounting hole in the X-axis direction; M y is the moment generated by the pot body 1' on the mounting hole in the Y-axis direction; G x is the component force of the gravity of the pot body 1' on the X-axis, G y is the component force of the gravity of the pot body 1' on the Y-axis, B x is the distance between the center of gravity of the pot body 1' in the related art along the X-axis and the position B of the mounting hole, B y is the distance between the center of gravity of the pot body 1' in the related art along the Y-axis and the position B of the mounting hole.

[0057] As Figure 8 shown, under the condition that other conditions are the same, when the installation part 28 is located in the middle of the pot body, the gravity of the pot body itself on the center of gravity M will generate a continuous moment M b = M x + M y = G x × A y + G y × A x ; where M in this formula x is the moment generated by the pot body on the position A of the mounting hole 280 in the X-axis direction; M y is the moment generated by the pot body on the position A of the mounting hole 280 in the Y-axis direction; G x is the component force of the gravity of the pot body on the X-axis, G y is the component force of the gravity of the pot body on the Y-axis, A X is the distance between the center of gravity of the pot body in this application along the X-axis and the position A of the mounting hole 280, A y is the distance between the center of gravity of the pot body in this application along the Y-axis and the position A of the mounting hole 280.

[0058] Among them, A x = B x , A y < B y , so M a > M b , therefore, setting the installation part 28 in the middle of the pot body in this application can effectively reduce the moment generated by the pot body on the installation part 28, and effectively improve the risk that the installation part 28 has large deformation, melting or even fracture under the action of moment and high temperature; in addition, the reduction of the moment of the self-weight of the pot body on the installation part 28 can also reduce the strength requirements for the material and structural design of the housing 1, and reduce the material cost and design difficulty.

[0059] In some embodiments, optionally, the installation part 28 is arranged at the connection between the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204.

[0060] In this embodiment, the installation part 28 is provided at the connection between the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204, ensuring the distance between the installation part 28 and the heating plate 22, such that the installation part 28 is located in the middle of the cavity 20. Thus, it can not only reduce the temperature at the location of the housing 1 and the installation part 28, but also reduce the torque exerted on the installation part 28 by the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204.

[0061] As Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the first pot body 202 includes a first pot rim 2022, the second pot body 204 includes a second pot rim 2040, and the first pot rim 2022 and the second pot rim 2040 are welded and connected along the circumference of the first pot rim 2022; the installation part 28 is provided on the first pot rim 2022 and extends outward from the first pot body 202, or the installation part 28 is provided on the second pot rim 2040 and extends outward from the second pot body 204.

[0062] In this embodiment, the first pot body 202 includes a first pot rim 2022, the second pot body 204 includes a second pot rim 2040, and the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 are welded and connected at the first pot rim 2022 and the second pot rim 2040, improving the connection strength between the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 and enhancing the pressure of the steam in the cavity 20. Wherein, when the installation part 28 is arranged on the first pot body 202, the installation part 28 is arranged at the first pot rim 2022 and extends outward from the first pot body 202. While ensuring the distance between the installation part 28 and the heating plate 22, it is also convenient for the manufacture of the installation part 28 and reduces the processing difficulty. Correspondingly, when the installation part 28 is arranged on the second pot body 204, the installation part 28 is arranged at the second pot rim 2040 and extends outward from the second pot body 204. Thus, while ensuring the distance between the installation part 28 and the heating plate 22, it is also convenient for the manufacture of the installation part 28 and reduces the processing difficulty.

[0063] Wherein, the first pot rim 2022 and the second pot rim 2040 are welded in a full circle, ensuring the sealing performance and connection strength at the connection between the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204, and can prevent steam or liquid from flowing out of the pot body 20 through the gap between the first pot rim 2022 and the second pot rim 2040.

[0064] In some embodiments, optionally, the installation part 28 and the first pot body 202 are of an integral structure, or the installation part 28 and the second pot body 204 are of an integral structure.

[0065] In this embodiment, when the installation part 28 is arranged on the first pot body 202, the installation part 28 and the first pot body 202 are of an integral structure, which improves the connection strength between the installation part 28 and the first pot body 202, facilitates the manufacture of the installation part 28, reduces the processing difficulty, and does not require the use of connecting parts between the installation part 28 and the first pot body 202, thereby improving the integrity and sealing performance of the wall surface of the first pot body 202. Correspondingly, when the installation part 28 is arranged on the second pot body 204, the installation part 28 and the second pot body 204 are of an integral structure, which improves the connection strength between the installation part 28 and the second pot body 204, facilitates the manufacture of the installation part 28, reduces the processing difficulty, and does not require the use of connecting parts between the installation part 28 and the second pot body 204, thereby improving the integrity and sealing performance of the wall surface of the second pot body 204.

[0066] Optionally, when the installation part 28 is arranged on the first pot body 202, the installation part 28 is flush with the first pot edge 2022 of the first pot body 202; when the installation part 28 is arranged on the second pot body 204, the installation part 28 is flush with the second pot edge 2040 of the second pot body 204.

[0067] As Figure 7 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, both the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 are stamping and drawing parts, the stamping and drawing parts are provided with clamping edges 206, and the installation part 28 is at least a part of the clamping edge 206 of the stamping and drawing parts.

[0068] In this embodiment, both the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 are stamping and drawing parts, that is, both the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 are formed by stamping and drawing processes. The stamping and drawing parts are provided with clamping edges 206, which can make the wall thickness of the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204 uniform and prevent cracking. After the drawing forming, it is necessary to remove the clamping edge 206. Since the installation part 28 is a part of the clamping edge 206 of the stamping and drawing parts, after removing a part of the clamping edge 206, the remaining part of the clamping edge 206 is the installation part 28, so that the forming of the installation part 28 and the process of cutting the clamping edge 206 are completed together, reducing the processing process, reducing the processing difficulty of the installation part 28, reducing the material consumption, and thus reducing the manufacturing cost.

[0069] In some embodiments, optionally, the number of the installation parts 28 is multiple, and the multiple installation parts 28 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the first pot body 202 or the second pot body 204.

[0070] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the multiple installation parts 28 improves the connection stability between the steam generating part 2 and the housing 1, and can also balance the torque acting on the installation part 28 by the first pot body 202 and the second pot body 204, reducing the occurrence of the fracture of the installation part 28.

[0071] In some embodiments, optionally, the mounting portion 28 has a plate-like structure.

[0072] In this embodiment, the mounting portion 28 has a plate-like structure, reducing the material thickness of the mounting portion 28 and thus reducing the cost.

[0073] In some embodiments, optionally, the steam generating portion 2 is suspended in the housing 1 through the mounting portion 28.

[0074] In this embodiment, the steam generating portion 2 is suspended in the housing 1 through the mounting portion 28, thereby avoiding the situation where the heating plate 22 at the bottom directly contacts the housing 1 and causes the housing 1 to be deformed by heat.

[0075] In some embodiments, optionally, the bottom of the steam generating portion 2 contacts the housing 1 through a heat insulation structure, so that the steam generating portion 2 is supported in the housing 1, improving the reliability of the installation of the steam generating portion 2.

[0076] In some embodiments, optionally, the heating plate 22 is welded to the first pot body 202.

[0077] In this embodiment, the heating plate 22 is welded to the first pot body 202, improving the connection strength between the heating plate 22 and the first pot body 202.

[0078] In some embodiments, optionally, the top wall of the second pot body 204 includes at least one inclined surface 2042, and the inclined surface 2042 is inclined towards the direction close to the first pot body 202, and the water inlet 24 and the steam outlet 26 are arranged on the inclined surface 2042.

[0079] In this embodiment, the top wall of the second pot body 204 is provided with at least one inclined surface 2042. The arrangement of the inclined surface 2042 can provide an avoidance space for the installation of components. The steam outlet 26 and the water inlet 24 are arranged on the inclined surface 2042, which can facilitate the installation of the pipes on the steam outlet 26 and the water inlet 24 and reduce the overall space occupied by the steam generating portion.

[0080] In some embodiments, optionally, the top wall of the second pot body 204 includes at least two inclined surfaces 2042, and the at least two inclined surfaces 2042 are arranged back to back and are inclined towards the direction close to the first pot body 202, and the water inlet 24 and the steam outlet 26 are respectively arranged on two opposite inclined surfaces 2042 or on the same inclined surface 2042.

[0081] In this embodiment, at least two inclined surfaces 2042 are provided on the top wall of the second pot body 204. The provision of the inclined surfaces 2042 can provide an avoidance space for the installation of components. When the steam outlet 26 and the water inlet 24 are respectively arranged on two opposite inclined surfaces 2042, it is convenient for the installation of the pipe bodies on the steam outlet 26 and the water inlet 24, reducing the overall space occupied by the steam generating part. At the same time, the steam outlet 26 and the water inlet 24 are respectively arranged on two opposite inclined surfaces 2042, which can also facilitate the connection between the steam outlet 26 and the ironing part, reducing the piping length of the pipeline.

[0082] In some embodiments, optionally, the mounting part 28 is provided with a mounting hole 280, and the mounting part 28 is connected to the housing through the mounting hole 280.

[0083] In this embodiment, the mounting part 28 is connected to the housing through the mounting hole 280, which improves the connection strength between the steam generating part and the housing, reduces the contact area between the mounting part 28 and the housing, and further reduces the heat transfer amount from the steam generating part to the housing.

[0084] Optionally, the clothing treatment device further includes a connecting screw, and the connecting screw is inserted into the mounting hole 280 and connected to the housing 1, so that the steam generating part 2 is fixed on the housing 1.

[0085] In some embodiments, optionally, the clothing treatment device further includes: an ironing part 3, which is arranged on the housing 1 and is in communication with the steam outlet 26.

[0086] In this embodiment, the ironing part 3 is in communication with the steam outlet 26, and the steam is output through the ironing part 3, thereby realizing the ironing of clothes.

[0087] In some embodiments, optionally, the clothing treatment device further includes: a heat insulation pad, which is arranged between the mounting part 28 and the housing 1.

[0088] In this embodiment, a heat insulation pad is arranged between the mounting part 28 and the housing 1, further reducing the heat transfer amount from the mounting part 28 to the housing 1 and avoiding the situation of heat-induced deformation of the housing 1. In addition, the mounting part 28 is arranged on the first pot body 202 or the second pot body 204, which reduces the highest temperature of the mounting part 28 and can also reduce the heat resistance requirement of the heat insulation pad, thereby reducing the material cost.

[0089] Optionally, the clothing treatment device includes an ironing machine.

[0090] Optionally, the clothing treatment device further includes a water tank assembly and a filtering assembly. The water tank assembly is in communication with the filtering assembly, and the filtering assembly is in communication with the steam generating part 2 for delivering filtered liquid into the steam generating part 2.

[0091] Optionally, the filtering component is located outside and at the bottom of the water tank component.

[0092] In a specific application, the steam generating part 2 that can output high-pressure steam is mainly composed of an upper pot body (such as the second pot body 204), a lower pot body (such as the first pot body 202), and a heating plate 22, which are welded in sequence. Among them, the lower edge of the upper pot body is connected to the upper edge of the lower pot body by a full-circle weld; the bottom of the lower pot body is welded to the aluminum plate of the heating plate 22.

[0093] The upper pot body and the lower pot body are formed by stamping and drawing. As Figure 7 shown, to ensure uniform wall thickness and no cracking of the pot body during the drawing process, a full-circle clamping edge 206 needs to be set; after the drawing is completed, the clamping edge 206 needs to be cut and removed through processes such as blanking, wire cutting, or turning for subsequent welding of the upper pot body and the lower pot body; therefore, in the present application, when the clamping edge 206 of the lower pot body is cut and removed, the clamping edge 206 is cut and punched along the Figure 7 dotted line in

[0094] This specific benefit of this solution is:

[0095] The installation part 28 is located in the middle of the pot body, far from the heating plate 22 at the bottom. When the pot body is electrified and heated, the temperature of the heating plate 22 rises rapidly, up to 200 °C at most; however, due to the fact that the installation part 28 located in the middle of the pot body is far from the heating plate 22, the large surface area of the pot body, and the absorption of heat by the water inside the pot body, the temperature of the installation part 28 is significantly lower than the temperature at the heating plate 22, reducing the maximum temperature that the installation part 28 withstands during the operation of the product and reducing the risk of heat deformation, melting, and fracture of the housing 1.

[0096] In addition, due to product design or manufacturing errors, the pot body may be fixed to the product at a certain angle with the horizontal plane. As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, when the installation part 3' is located on the heating plate 2' at the bottom, the gravity of the pot body 1' itself on the center of gravity M will generate a continuous moment M on the positions B where the installation holes of the installation part 3' are located a = M x + M y = G x × B y + G y × B x ; as Figure 8 shown, under the same other conditions, when the installation part 28 is located in the middle of the pot body, the gravity of the pot body itself on the center of gravity M will generate a continuous moment M on the positions A where the installation holes 280 are locatedb = M x + M y = G x × A y + G y × A x ; wherein A x = B x ,A y < B y ,so M a > M b Therefore, in the present application, the installation part 28 is arranged in the middle of the pot body, which can effectively reduce the moment generated by the pot body on the installation part 28, and effectively improve the risk that the installation part 28 has large deformation, melting or even fracture under the action of moment and high temperature; in addition, the reduction of the moment of the self-weight of the pot body on the installation part 28 can also reduce the strength requirements for the material and structural design of the housing 1, and reduce the material cost and design difficulty.

[0097] In the present application, during the cutting of the clamping edge 206 after stamping and drawing of the upper pot body and the lower pot body, the installation part 28 of the pot body is cut and formed together. Without adding additional processes and costs, the installation part 28 of the pot body is transferred from the heating plate 22 to the middle of the pot body; it can effectively reduce the temperature conducted from the pot body to the installation part 28 during the operation of the pot body. In addition, compared with the installation part 28 being arranged on the heating plate 22, arranging the installation part 28 of the pot body in the middle of the pot body in the present application can effectively reduce the moment generated by the gravity of the pot body itself on the center of gravity M on each fixing hole when the pot body is fixed to the housing 1 at a certain angle with the horizontal plane due to product design or manufacturing errors. From the above two points, the embodiments proposed in the present application can greatly reduce the risk of thermal deformation, melting and fracture of the installation part 28, thereby providing the feasibility of selecting a material with lower temperature resistance and lower cost for the heat insulation pad and the housing 1.
