Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the said features. In the description of the present application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0026] In this application, the word “exemplary” is used to mean “serving as an example, instance, or illustration.” Any embodiment described in this application as “exemplary” is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments.

[0027] The embodiment of the present application provides an electric control component, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the electric control component includes an electric control box 100 and a temperature sensing module 200. The temperature sensing module 200 includes a temperature sensing wire 210 and a temperature sensing probe 220 for detecting the ambient temperature. The temperature sensing probe 220 is connected to the front end of the temperature sensing wire 210, and the rear end of the temperature sensing wire 210 is used to connect to the circuit board in the electric control box 100; the outer surface of the electric control box 100 is provided with a limit assembly 300 and a fixing platform 400, the limit assembly 300 includes a first limit member 310 and a second limit member 320, a first gap 301 is provided between the first limit member 310 and the second limit member 320, and the temperature sensing wire 210 is clamped in the first gap 301; a fixing groove 401 is provided on the fixing platform 400, and the temperature sensing probe 220 is clamped in the fixing groove 401.

[0028] The electric control component provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a limit assembly 300 and a fixing platform 400 on the outer surface of the electric control box 100, and a fixing groove 401 is provided on the fixing platform 400. A first gap 301 is provided between the first limit member 310 and the second limit member 320 of the limit assembly 300, so that the temperature sensing wire 210 is clamped in the first gap 301, and the temperature sensing probe 220 is clamped in the fixing groove 401, so that the temperature sensing wire 210 and the temperature sensing probe 220 can be quickly and reliably fixed to the electric control box 100 without using screws, thereby avoiding the problem of screws damaging the temperature sensing wire 210 and the temperature sensing probe 220, reducing the risk of failure, and simple installation operation, improving assembly efficiency, and easy disassembly, which is convenient for subsequent maintenance operations.

[0029] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments of the present application, the side of the first position-limiting member 310 facing the second position-limiting member 320 is a first curved surface 311, and the temperature-sensing cable 210 has a first curved side surface, which abuts the first curved surface 311. By providing the side of the first position-limiting member 310 facing the second position-limiting member 320 with the first curved surface 311, routing of the temperature-sensing cable 210 is facilitated. Alternatively, the entire first position-limiting member 310 can be designed as a curved structure, and the inner surface of the curved structure (i.e., the first curved surface 311) abuts the first curved side surface of the temperature-sensing cable 210.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, the electric control box 100 includes a box body 110 and a cover 120. The box body 110 has an opening, and the cover 120 covers the opening of the box body 110. The fixing platform 400 and the limiting assembly 300 are both disposed on the cover 120. The cover 120 has a wire hole 121. The temperature sensing wire 210 is passed through the wire hole 121, and the rear end of the temperature sensing wire 210 is connected to the circuit board in the box body 110. By providing the wire hole 121, the temperature sensing wire 210 can pass through the wire hole 121 into the box body 110 to connect to the circuit board in the box body 110.

[0031] Optionally, the limiting assembly 300 further includes a third limiting member 330, which is disposed on a surface of the first limiting member 310 facing the second limiting member 320. The third limiting member 330, the first limiting member 310, and the outer surface of the electrical control box 100 form a limiting groove 302, through which the temperature sensing cable 210 is disposed. When the temperature sensing cable 210 is disposed in the limiting groove 302, it is blocked by the third limiting member 330, preventing the temperature sensing cable 210 from escaping from the first gap 301, thereby improving the installation stability of the temperature sensing cable 210.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, Figures 4 to 6 As shown, two fourth stoppers 410 are provided at one end of the fixing platform 400 near the first stopper 310. A second gap 411 communicating with the fixing slot 401 is formed between the two fourth stoppers 410. The temperature sensing cable 210 is passed through the second gap 411, and the end surface of the temperature probe 220 connected to the temperature sensing cable 210 abuts against the surfaces of the two fourth stoppers 410 facing the fixing platform 400. This arrangement prevents the temperature probe 220 and temperature sensing cable 210 from moving backward after being fixed to the fixing platform 400, and also prevents the temperature sensing cable 210 from loosening on the fixing platform 400.

[0033] Optionally, the width of the second gap 411 gradually decreases from the end away from the outer surface to the end closer to the outer surface, and the front end of the temperature-sensing cable 210 is clamped in the second gap 411. By setting the width of the second gap 411 to gradually decrease from the end away from the outer surface to the end closer to the outer surface, the second gap 411 forms a V-shaped structure. The wider end of the V-shaped structure forms a guide to facilitate the temperature-sensing cable 210 to enter the second gap 411, while the smaller end facilitates the clamping of the temperature-sensing cable 210.

[0034] Optionally, by projecting along the center line direction of the second gap 411, the projection surface of the first limiter 310 partially overlaps with the projection surface of the fourth limiter 410, so that a winding limit is formed after the temperature sensing wire 210 comes out of the limiter assembly 300, further constraining the routing of the temperature sensing wire 210, and preventing the temperature sensing wire 210 from being pulled during after-sales or production, which may cause unit failure.

[0035] Optionally, the fixing groove 401 includes a groove bottom and two opposite groove walls, each of which is provided with a relief notch 402. Providing the relief notch 402 on the groove wall of the fixing groove 401 allows an operator to use their fingers to press down on the temperature probe 220 from the relief notch 402 when installing the temperature probe 220 on the fixing platform 400, thereby better securing the temperature probe 220 in the fixing groove 401. Furthermore, during maintenance, the operator can also place their fingers on the relief notch 402 to remove the temperature probe 220 from the fixing groove 401.

[0036] Optional, such as Figure 6 As shown, the bottom surface of the fixing groove 401 is a second curved surface 404, and the temperature sensing probe 220 has a second curved side surface, which abuts against the second curved surface 404, so that the temperature sensing probe 220 can better fit in the fixing groove 401 and is not easily displaced.

[0037] Optional, such as 3 pictures and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the fixing platform 400 is provided with a through hole 403 corresponding to the avoidance notch 402. The through hole 403 extends through the fixing platform 400 along the width of the fixing groove 401. The provision of through hole 403 allows for the addition of a binding wire to secure the temperature probe 220, thereby improving the installation stability of the temperature sensing probe 220. Specifically, when bundling is required, the binding wire is first passed through the through hole 403, then the two ends of the binding wire are passed through the avoidance notch 402 on both sides, and finally, the binding wire is tied into a knot to bind the temperature sensing wire 210 to the fixing platform 400.

The specific structure of the electronic control assembly is as described in the above embodiments.
