[0041] Reference Figures 1-4 , is an embodiment of the gas stove of the present utility model.

[0042] like Figure 1 The gas stove mainly includes a panel 100, a bottom shell 200, a burner, a pot support 400, a display component 500, a fixing ring 600 and a knob component 700.

[0043] The panel 100 is provided with a screen mounting groove 110 for mounting the display assembly 500 , and knob mounting holes 120 are respectively provided at both ends of the screen mounting groove 110 for mounting the knob assembly 700 .

[0044] The display assembly 500 is disposed on the lower side of the panel 100 . The display assembly 500 includes a screen fixing frame 510 and a screen 520 mounted on the screen fixing frame 510 .

[0045] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The screen mounting bracket 510 has upwardly protruding bosses 511 at both ends. The bosses 511 have a central through-hole to facilitate the installation of the knob assembly 700. The fixing ring 600 is placed on the upper side of the panel 100. The bosses 511 can be inserted into the knob mounting holes 120 and fit over the fixing ring 600 for a fixed connection, thereby achieving a stable connection between the screen mounting bracket 510 and the panel 100.

[0046] The knob assembly 700 passes through the fixing ring 600 and the central through hole and is installed in the knob installation hole 120 .

[0047] Specifically, the knob assembly 700 includes a knob 710 and a knob shaft 720. The knob 710 is mounted above the knob mounting hole 120. The knob shaft 720 passes through the fixing ring 600 and the center through-hole to connect to the gas control valve. The user can control the gas flow rate and thus adjust the heat by rotating or pressing the knob 710.

[0048] The above-mentioned gas stove adopts a mechanical connection method instead of the traditional glue bonding method, which effectively avoids the problem of the screen 520 falling off due to aging of the glue in a high-temperature environment. Moreover, this method not only simplifies the assembly process, but also greatly facilitates subsequent maintenance and replacement work, thereby reducing the user's cost of use. In addition, this method improves production efficiency, avoids production stagnation caused by the long waiting time required for the glue to cure, and thus improves the overall production efficiency. Furthermore, the fixing ring 600 can be in close contact with the upper surface of the panel 100, effectively preventing moisture from entering the interior of the stove, and improving the waterproof performance of the product. At the same time, by using the knob 710 hole for installation, consistency with ordinary household stoves is achieved without changing the appearance of the stove.

[0049] In the aforementioned gas stove, the outer peripheral sidewall of the boss portion 511 is provided with external threads, while the inner wall of the fixing ring 600 is provided with internal threads. The fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511 are fixedly connected through threaded engagement. This threaded engagement ensures a tight connection between the fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511, preventing loosening and further enhancing the stability of the screen fixing bracket 510.

[0050] In this embodiment, the outer peripheral sidewalls of the boss portion 511 are provided with external threads, while the inner wall of the fixing ring 600 is provided with corresponding internal threads, so that the fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511 can be fixedly connected through threaded cooperation. The threaded connection not only ensures the firmness of the connection part, but also facilitates disassembly and maintenance. In addition, the threaded connection structure can also provide a certain degree of waterproof and dustproof function. When the fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511 are tightly engaged, it can effectively prevent external contaminants from invading the interior of the device, thereby extending the service life of the product. At the same time, by tightening the fixing ring 600, it can be closely attached to the upper surface of the panel 100, improving the sealing performance.

[0051] In some other embodiments, the fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511 may be fixedly connected by a buckle structure. The buckle structure design makes installation and removal more convenient and can be completed without tools.

[0052] In some other embodiments, the fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511 can also be fixedly connected by an interference fit. The interference fit design enables the fixing ring 600 to be tightly fitted on the boss portion 511 during installation, forming a firm fixing effect. The interference fit method generates friction between the fixing ring 600 and the boss portion 511 by applying appropriate force, thereby ensuring the stability and durability of the connection. At the same time, the interference fit simplifies the installation process, reducing installation time and cost. Preferably, the fixing ring 600 is a rubber part, which is fixed by interference fit with the boss portion 511 through the elasticity and deformation ability of the rubber. At the same time, it can also enhance the sealing and vibration resistance of the connection part, protect the screen fixing frame 510 from potential damage caused by vibration, and thus ensure the stable operation of the product.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, a first sealing member (not shown) is provided between the boss portion 511 and the knob mounting hole 120. The sealing member may be a rubber ring or other suitable sealing material. The provision of the first sealing member is intended to strengthen the sealing between the boss portion 511 and the knob mounting hole 120, preventing water vapor, splashing liquid, or other impurities from entering the interior of the screen 520 assembly through the knob mounting hole 120, thereby effectively improving the waterproof performance and sealing of the gas stove.

[0054] In some embodiments of the present application, a second sealant (not shown) is provided between the retaining ring 600 and the panel 100 to further enhance the sealing performance of the screen 520 assembly. The second sealant can be a sealing gasket, etc. The second sealant forms an effective barrier between the retaining ring 600 and the panel 100, preventing foreign matter such as moisture from entering the device interior.

[0055] In this embodiment, the boss portion 511 and the screen fixing frame 510 are an integrally formed structure, that is, they are cast or injection molded as a whole during the manufacturing process. The integral molding design improves the strength of the screen fixing frame 510 and the stability of the overall structure, and avoids loosening or breakage caused by separation of components.

[0056] The screen 520 in this embodiment is a touch screen display. The application of the touch screen display allows the user to operate by directly touching the screen 520, providing a more convenient and intuitive control method.

[0057] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it is still possible for a person skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or to replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions claimed to be protected by the present invention.
