[0060] The embodiments of this specification provide an auxiliary mounting member. The auxiliary mounting member is used to assist in the installation of an electric water heater. Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows a schematic structural diagram of the electric water heater in the embodiments of this specification. As Figure 1 shown, the electric water heater 10 may have a first side 11 and a second side 12 in the length direction. In this embodiment, the length direction refers to the horizontal direction parallel to the wall surface when the electric water heater 10 is installed on the wall.

[0061] The auxiliary mounting member may include a guiding member. Please refer to Figures 2 to 4, showing a schematic diagram of an auxiliary installation of a water heater by a guide member in an embodiment of this specification. As Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the guide member 21 can be installed on the wall 100. The guide member 21 is used to guide the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the water heater 10 during the installation of the water heater 10.

[0062] As Figure 2 shown, the guide member 21 can be used to guide the first side 11 of the water heater 10 during the installation of the water heater 10. When installing the water heater 10, the installer can move the water heater 10 to the target installation position on the wall 100 after fitting or approaching the first side 11 of the water heater 10 to the guide member 21.

[0063] As Figure 3 shown, the guide member 21 can be used to guide the second side 12 of the water heater 10 during the installation of the water heater 10. When installing the water heater 10, the installer can move the water heater 10 to the target installation position on the wall 100 after fitting or approaching the second side 12 of the water heater 10 to the guide member 21.

[0064] As Figure 4 shown, the guide member 21 can be used to guide the first side 11 and the second side 12 of the water heater 10 during the installation of the water heater 10. When installing the water heater 10, the installer can move the water heater 10 to the target installation position on the wall 100 after fitting or approaching the first side 11 and the second side 12 of the water heater 10 to the guide member 21 respectively.

[0065] In the above embodiment, since the auxiliary installation member includes the guide member 21, after the guide member 21 is installed on the wall 100, when the installer wants to install the water heater 10 on the wall 100, the guide member 21 can guide the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the water heater 10 in the length direction. By fitting or approaching the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the water heater 10 to the guide member 21 and then moving the water heater 10, it is convenient to install the water heater 10 at the target installation position. Therefore, the installation efficiency and the one-time installation success rate can be improved, and the installation is time-saving and labor-saving.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 5 , showing a schematic structural diagram of the guide member in an embodiment of this specification. As Figure 5As shown, in some embodiments of this specification, the guide member 21 has a mounting surface 213 and a guiding surface 214 that form a preset included angle. The mounting surface 213 is used to mount the guide member 21 on the wall. The guiding surface 214 is used to guide the first side 11 and / or the second side 12. Before installing the electric water heater 10, the mounting surface 213 of the guide member 21 can be first mounted on the wall. Then, when installing the electric water heater 10 later, the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 can be moved after being attached to or close to the guide member 21 until the electric water heater 10 is installed at the target installation position. In this embodiment, by providing the mounting surface 213, it is convenient to mount the guide member 21 on the wall. By providing the guiding surface 214, it is convenient to guide the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10.

[0067] As Figure 5 shown, in some embodiments of this specification, the preset included angle is 90 degrees. In this embodiment, by setting the preset included angle to 90 degrees, the guiding surface 214 is perpendicular to the mounting surface 213, and thus perpendicular to the wall 100 surface, and thereby parallel to the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10, which is convenient for moving the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 after being close to or attached to the guide member 21 to be installed at the target installation position.

[0068] In some embodiments of this specification, the auxiliary installation member may further include a positioning member. The positioning member may have a positioning portion in the length direction, and the positioning portion is used to determine the position of the guide member 21 on the wall. The length of the positioning member is the same as the length of the electric water heater 10, or the ratio between the length of the positioning member and the length of the electric water heater 10 is greater than 1 and less than 1.5.

[0069] In this embodiment, before mounting the guide member 21 on the wall 100, the position of the guide member 21 on the wall 100 can be first determined by using the positioning member. Before installing the electric water heater 10, the positioning member can be first fixed on the wall 100, and then the position of the guide member 21 on the wall 100 can be determined by using the positioning member and marked, and then the positioning member can be removed from the wall 100. After that, the guide member 21 can be installed at the marked position. Further, since the length of the positioning member is greater than or equal to the length of the electric water heater 10 (the ratio between the two is between 1 and 1.5), by using the positioning member to determine the position of the guide member 21, it is possible to determine in advance whether the installation position is appropriate and avoid the situation where the electric water heater 10 cannot be installed due to the inappropriate position of the guide member 21 (for example, the length of the space on the side of the guide member 21 close to the electric water heater 10 is less than the length of the electric water heater 10).

[0070] Please refer to Figures 6 to 8 , which respectively show the structural schematic diagram, front view, side view, and rear view of the positioning member in the embodiments of this specification. As Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments of this specification, the positioning portion 221 is one side or two sides of the positioning member 22 in the length direction. By using the side of the positioning member 22 as the positioning portion 221, the positioning operation is made simple and convenient. Figure 7 The middle figure in [it] is the front view of the positioning member, Figure 7 and the left and right figures in [it] are the side views of the positioning member.

[0071] Please continue to refer to Figures 6 to 8 , in some embodiments of this specification, the auxiliary installation member further includes a positioning member 22. The positioning member 22 may have a first positioning portion 2211 and a second positioning portion 2212 in the length direction. The length between the first positioning portion 2211 and the second positioning portion 2212 is the same as the length of the electric water heater 10. Or, the ratio of the length between the first positioning portion 2211 and the second positioning portion 2212 to the length of the electric water heater 10 is greater than 1 and less than 1.5. Correspondingly, the guiding member 21 may include a first guiding member 211 and a second guiding member 212. The first positioning portion 2211 is used to determine the position of the first guiding member 211 on the wall 100, the first guiding member 211 is used to guide the first side 11, the second positioning portion 2212 is used to determine the position of the second guiding member 212 on the wall 100, and the second guiding member 212 is used to guide the second side 12.

[0072] In this embodiment, by providing the first positioning portion 2211 and the second positioning portion 2212 as well as the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212, the first side 11 and the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 can be guided simultaneously. Before installing the electric water heater 10, the positioning member 22 can be fixed on the wall 100, and the positions of the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212 are determined respectively through the first positioning portion 2211 and the second positioning portion 2212. After that, the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212 are respectively installed at the determined positions. When installing the electric water heater 10, the first side 11 of the electric water heater 10 can be attached to or close to the first guiding member 211 and the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 can be attached to or close to the second guiding member 212 and then moved to the target installation position. By simultaneously limiting the first side 11 and the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 by the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212, the installation efficiency and the success rate of the first installation of the electric water heater 10 can be further improved.

[0073] In some embodiments, the length of the positioning member 22 may be equal to the length of the electric water heater 10. By setting the length of the positioning member 22 to be equal to the length of the electric water heater 10, the first side and the second side of the electric water heater 10 can be accurately guided.

[0074] In some other embodiments, the length of the positioning member 22 may be slightly greater than the length of the electric water heater 10. By setting the length of the positioning member 22 to be slightly greater than the length of the electric water heater 10, it is convenient for the electric water heater 10 to enter the space between the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212. In some embodiments, the ratio between the length of the positioning member 22 and the length of the electric water heater 10 may be greater than 1 and less than 1.5. By limiting the ratio within 1.5, it is possible to avoid an excessive distance between the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212, which may affect the guiding effect on the electric water heater 10. Preferably, the ratio between the length of the positioning member 22 and the length of the electric water heater 10 may be 1.1 to 1.3.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present specification, the guiding member 21 is a cardboard member, a foam member or a plastic member. By setting the guiding member 21 as a cardboard member, a foam member or a plastic member, on the one hand, the cost can be saved, and on the other hand, the weight of the guiding member can be reduced, which is convenient for installation on the wall.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present specification, the first guiding member 211 has a first installation surface and a first guiding surface with a preset included angle. The first installation surface is used to install the first guiding member 211 on the wall 100, and the first guiding surface is used to guide the first side 11. In some embodiments of the present specification, the second guiding member 212 has a second installation surface and a second guiding surface with a preset included angle. The second installation surface is used to install the second guiding member 212 on the wall 100, and the second guiding surface is used to guide the second side 12. In this embodiment, by providing the installation surface, it is convenient to install the guiding member on the wall surface, and by providing the guiding surface, it is convenient to guide the first side and / or the second side of the electric water heater.

[0077] In some embodiments of the present specification, the preset included angle between the first installation surface and the first guiding surface may be the same as or different from the preset included angle between the second installation surface and the second guiding surface.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present specification, the preset included angle between the first installation surface and the first guiding surface is 90 degrees.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present specification, the preset included angle between the second installation surface and the second guiding surface is 90 degrees.

[0080] Please refer to Figures 9 to 11 , which shows a schematic diagram of the guiding member guiding the electric water heater in the embodiments of the present specification. As Figure 9 shown, in some embodiments of the present specification, the preset included angle between the first installation surface and the first guiding surface is 90 degrees, and the preset included angle between the second installation surface and the second guiding surface is 90 degrees.

[0081] In the above embodiments, by setting the preset angle to 90 degrees, the first guiding surface and / or the second guiding surface are perpendicular to the first mounting surface and / or the second mounting surface, and thus perpendicular to the wall 100 surface, so that the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 are parallel. This facilitates moving the first side 11 and / or the second side 12 of the electric water heater 10 after being parallel or in contact with the first guiding member 211 and / or the second guiding member 212 to the target installation position.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present specification, the preset angle between the first mounting surface and the first guiding surface is 90 degrees, and the preset angle between the second mounting surface and the second guiding surface is less than 90 degrees and greater than 60 degrees.

[0083] As Figure 10 shown, in some embodiments of the present specification, the preset angle between the first mounting surface and the first guiding surface is less than 90 degrees and greater than 60 degrees, and the preset angle between the second mounting surface and the second guiding surface is 90 degrees.

[0084] As Figure 11 shown, in some embodiments of the present specification, the preset angle between the first mounting surface and the first guiding surface is less than 90 degrees and greater than 60 degrees, and the preset angle between the second mounting surface and the second guiding surface is less than 90 degrees and greater than 60 degrees.

[0085] In the above embodiments, one or both of the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212 are set to be inclined away from the electric water heater 10, and the distance between the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212 becomes closer in the direction of approaching the wall 100. This makes it convenient for the electric water heater 10 to enter the space between the first guiding member 211 and the second guiding member 212 during the installation of the electric water heater 10, and then the electric water heater 10 moves in the direction of approaching the wall 100 until it is installed at the target installation position, which can further improve the installation efficiency.

[0086] Please continue to refer to Figures 6 to 8 , in some embodiments of the present specification, the first positioning portion 2211 and the second positioning portion 2212 are two side edges of the positioning member 22 in the length direction. By using the side edges of the positioning member as the positioning portions, the positioning operation is simple and convenient.

[0087] As Figures 6 to 8 shown, in some embodiments of the present specification, a hook positioning portion 222 is further provided on the positioning member 22. The hook positioning portion 222 is used to position the hook on the wall 100, and the hook is used to connect with the hanging bracket on the electric water heater 10. In one embodiment, the hook positioning portion 222 can be two through holes on the positioning member 22, and the hook can be positioned through the two through holes on the positioning member 22.

[0088] In this embodiment, by providing a hook positioning portion 222 on the positioning member 22, the position of the hook on the wall 100 can be determined without measuring the position of the hanging bracket on the water heater 10, and the operation is convenient and simple. Moreover, the positioning member 22 can position the guiding member 21 and the hook at the same time. On the one hand, the preparation time before the installation of the water heater 10 can be shortened. On the other hand, the relative position between the guiding member 21 and the hook can be made more accurate, which can further improve the installation efficiency of the water heater 10.

[0089] In some embodiments of this specification, the positioning member 22 is a packaging member, and the packaging member is used to package the water heater 10. In this embodiment, by reusing the packaging member of the water heater as the positioning member, the cost can be saved.

[0090] In some embodiments of this specification, at least part of the exterior of the water heater 10 is covered by a packaging structure. The packaging member is a part of the packaging structure and can be detached from the packaging structure. By reusing a part of the packaging structure as the positioning member, the cost can be saved.

[0091] In some embodiments of this specification, the packaging member is detachably connected to other parts of the packaging structure. In this embodiment, the installation structure can include the packaging member and other parts other than the packaging member, and the packaging member can be detachably connected to other parts of the packaging structure. In this embodiment, the packaging member is detachably connected to other parts of the packaging structure. Before installing the water heater, the user can detach the packaging member from the packaging structure. After the installation is completed, the packaging member can be reconnected to other parts of the packaging structure, which is convenient for the storage and preservation of the packaging member.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 12 and Figure 14 , which respectively show the schematic diagram, the exploded view of the water heater 10 and the packaging structure in the embodiments of this specification, and the schematic diagram of the water heater 10 placed on the packaging structure. As Figure 12 and Figure 13 shown, in some embodiments of this specification, the packaging structure can include a first packaging structure 23 that covers the first side 11 of the water heater 10. The packaging member is a part of the first packaging structure 23 and can be detached from the packaging structure. In one embodiment, the first packaging structure 23 can be a foam member.

[0093] It can be understood that, in some embodiments of this specification, the packaging structure can include a second packaging structure 24 that covers the second side 12 of the water heater 10. The packaging member is a part of the second packaging structure 24 and can be detached from the packaging structure. In one embodiment, the second packaging structure 24 can be a foam member.
