For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may also be a mechanical connection; it may be directly connected, or connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be internally connected and communicated between two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0024] The following further describes the specific implementation manner of the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings of the specification, so that the technical solutions and their beneficial effects of the present utility model are clearer and more definite. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model, and should not be construed as a limitation of the present utility model.
[0025] The preferred embodiment provided by the present utility model is as follows: As Figures 1 to 7 shown, a general tower fan body includes a body 1, a body top cover 2, and a base 3. The body 1 is provided with a shaft rod 11, and the base 3 is provided with a socket 31. The body 1 and the base 3 are assembled together by connecting the shaft rod 11 with the socket 31, and the body can rotate around the shaft rod as the rotation center; a handle portion 12 is recessed on the side of the body 1.
[0026] The body 1 has a cavity 13. The body 1 includes a front body shell 4 and a rear body shell 5. A clamping ear 51 extends from the inner side of the rear body shell 5. The clamping ear 51 has a fastening opening 52. A convex block 41 is provided on the inner side of the front body shell 4. The front body shell 4 and the rear body shell 5 are buckled together as a whole by connecting the clamping ear 51 with the convex block 41, so that the convex block 41 is fitted into the fastening opening 52. The clamping ears 51 are arranged along the rear body shell 5 to ensure more uniform force on the fastening, and the number of clamping ears 51 corresponds to that of the convex blocks 41. An air inlet window 53 is provided on the rear body shell 5, and an air outlet window 42 is provided on the front body shell 4. A rear cover 43 is installed on the air inlet window 53 to cover the air inlet window. A water tank window 54 is provided on the rear body shell 5, and the body 1 is configured with a water tank 55. The water tank 55 is inserted into the cavity 13 from the water tank window 54. A wind wheel seat 14 and a water receiving box 15 are installed in the cavity 13. The wind wheel seat 14 and the water receiving box 15 are locked to the body 1 by screws. The water receiving box 15 is arranged at the bottom of the wind wheel seat 14. A wind wheel is provided on the wind wheel seat 14. A synchronous motor 16 or a stepper motor 16 is installed on the water receiving box 15. The synchronous motor or the stepper motor is connected to the wind wheel to drive the wind wheel to rotate to generate an air flow. Both the synchronous motor and the stepper motor can be used in this solution.
[0027] The top end of the body 1 is open. A fastening block 17 is provided at the top end of the body 1. The body top cover 2 is provided with a fastening opening 21. The body top cover 2 is buckled to the top end of the body 1 by connecting the fastening block 17 with the fastening opening 21 to close the open top end of the body. The body top cover 2 has a concave opening 22. The body top cover 2 is configured with a top cover 23. The top cover 23 has a protruding column portion 24. The column portion 24 is connected to the concave opening 22 to assemble the top cover 23 on the body top cover 2.
[0028] A first locking portion 18 and a second locking portion 19 are provided on the inner side of the body 1, and a third locking portion 25 is provided at the bottom of the body top cover 2. The first locking portion 18, the second locking portion 19, and the third locking portion 25 are connected by screws. The body top cover 2 is locked to the body 1 through the cooperation and connection among the first locking portion 18, the second locking portion 19, and the third locking portion 25, and the first locking portion 18, the second locking portion 19, and the third locking portion 25 are covered and hidden by the body 1. The second locking portion 19 extends into the cavity 13. The second locking portion 19 has an access channel 191. The opening of the access channel 191 is exposed on the body 1, and a cover 192 is fitted into the opening to close the opening, thereby hiding all the screws.
[0029] The first locking portion 18 is located inside the front body shell 4, and the second locking portion 19 is located inside the rear body shell 5. Only the second locking portion 19 is provided with an access channel 191 for screw connection, reducing the screw connection method and making the whole more concise. Since the second locking portion 19 extends into the cavity 13, after the screw penetrates into the access channel 191, it will extend into the range of the cavity 13, preventing the screws of the second locking portion 19 from being directly visible and maintaining the overall aesthetic appearance.
[0030] To solve the problem that the screws on the outer body 1 of the existing tower fan are usually exposed, affecting the appearance of the tower fan, the present utility model proposes a general tower fan body 1. The front housing 4 and the rear housing 5 of the body are connected by a snap connection method, greatly reducing the direct connection of screws, thereby solving the problem of screw exposure and avoiding affecting the overall aesthetics. To further strengthen the connection tightness, the first locking portion 18, the second locking portion 19, and the third locking portion 25 are correspondingly matched and connected by screws, so that the body top cover 2, the front housing 4, and the rear housing 5 of the body are assembled into a whole; when the body top cover 2 is installed on the body 1, the first locking portion 18, the second locking portion 19, and the third locking portion 25 are all located in the cavity 13, and the body 1 and the body top cover 2 completely cover the first locking portion 18, the second locking portion 19, and the third locking portion 25 without exposure, thus maintaining the overall aesthetics while ensuring the connection tightness.
