[0029] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an instrument sealing structure includes: a bottom shell 1 and an upper cover 2;

[0030] The bottom shell 1 is provided with a sealing groove 11 along its periphery. The sealing groove 11 is used to accommodate a sealant 111. The two sides of the sealing groove 11 are arranged in an asymmetrical manner, with the inner side 12 being higher than the outer side 13. The inner side 12 is provided with a plurality of latch holes 121 at the same height. The plurality of latch holes 121 are evenly distributed at equal distances.

[0031] A circle of protruding clamping blocks 21 are provided along the periphery of the edge of the upper cover 2. The clamping blocks 21 cooperate with the sealing groove 11. A plurality of clamping blocks 211 are provided on the inward surface of the clamping block 21. The plurality of clamping blocks 211 are provided at the same height and are evenly distributed at equal distances.

[0032] The width of the clamping block 21 is set to correspond to the width of the sealing groove 11 , and the position and size of the clamping hole 121 are set to correspond to the position and size of the clamping block 211 .

[0033] An improved clamping method is adopted to replace the traditional fixing structure of screws 8 and sealing rings. An asymmetric sealing groove 11 is set around the edge of the bottom shell 1 to accommodate sealant 111 instead of a sealing ring. The edge of the upper cover 2 is designed with a circle of protruding clamping blocks 21, wherein the clamping blocks 211 are set corresponding to the clamping holes 121 on the bottom shell 1, and the upper cover 2 can be directly pressed onto the bottom shell 1. The inner side surface 12 of the sealing groove 11 is higher than the outer side surface 13, which helps to automatically guide the upper cover 2 and the bottom shell 1 to be accurately aligned during clamping. There is no need for inverted buckling and the use of an electric screwdriver, which reduces the complexity of the assembly process. There is no need for inverted buckling or the use of tools to fix, which significantly simplifies the assembly process; since the clamping blocks 21 are used in conjunction with the sealant 111 in the sealing groove 11, the sealing of the interface is improved, thereby improving the overall waterproof level; it also reduces the strict requirements on flatness, speeds up the assembly speed, and enhances the overall reliability and durability of the product.

[0034] In this embodiment, it also includes a middle frame 3 and a liquid crystal screen 4;

[0035] The middle frame 3 is arranged inside the bottom shell 1 and has a groove 31 on the top;

[0036] The liquid crystal screen 4 is disposed in the groove 31 , and the size of the liquid crystal screen 4 matches the size of the groove 31 .

[0037] The middle frame 3 is arranged inside the bottom shell 1 and is provided with a top groove 31, allowing the LCD screen 4 to be precisely embedded therein. The size of the LCD screen 4 perfectly matches the groove 31, ensuring the stable fixation of the LCD screen 4, thereby enhancing the overall structural stability of the instrument structure, not only improving the durability of the instrument structure, but also protecting the LCD screen 4 from external impact or vibration, maintaining a lasting and clear display effect, and extending the service life of the instrument.

[0038] In this embodiment, a PCB board 5 is further included. The PCB board 5 is disposed inside the bottom shell 1 and below the middle frame 3 .

[0039] The PCB board 5 is arranged inside the bottom shell 1 and below the middle frame 3, effectively utilizing space and providing structural layering, thereby optimizing the assembly and internal management of the entire instrument structure. By placing the PCB board 5 under the middle frame 3, the electronic components are better protected from potential physical damage. At the same time, it is also convenient to place necessary circuits under the LCD screen 4 and other user interface components, ensuring short distance and high efficiency of electrical connections.

[0040] In this embodiment, a plurality of screw holes 6 are provided on the middle frame 3 and the PCB board 5 , and a plurality of screw holes and screws 8 are provided on the bottom of the bottom shell 1 for fixing the PCB board 5 and the middle frame 3 inside the bottom shell 1 .

[0041] By providing several screw holes 6 on the middle frame 3 and PCB 5, and corresponding screw holes and screws 8 on the bottom of the bottom case 1, the PCB 5 and the middle frame 3 can be securely fixed to the inside of the bottom case 1. This improves the structural integrity and mechanical stability of the entire instrument, ensuring the safety and reliability of the electronic components during use. It also facilitates assembly and future maintenance, allowing for quick and accurate disassembly and reassembly of internal components when repairs or upgrades are required.

[0042] In this embodiment, a wire outlet hole 14 is provided at the bottom of the bottom shell 1 , and the wire outlet hole 14 is used to guide the cable connection from the PCB board 5 to the external device.

[0043] A cable outlet 14 is provided at the bottom of the bottom shell 1. The cable outlet 14 is designed to guide the cable connection from the PCB board 5 to the external device, effectively managing and protecting the cable routing, avoiding damage to the cable due to excessive bending or pulling, and ensuring the integrity and functionality of the cable; the cable outlet 14 also helps to maintain the cleanliness of the interior of the device. By centralizing the cable outlet, the cable installation and maintenance process is simplified, and the reliability and service life of the overall instrument structure are improved.

[0044] In this embodiment, a plurality of ventilation holes 32 are provided on the middle frame 3 , and the ventilation holes 32 are used to promote air circulation inside the bottom shell 1 .

[0045] Several ventilation holes 32 provided on the middle frame 3 are used to promote air circulation inside the bottom case 1. By providing sufficient air circulation, these ventilation holes 32 help dissipate the heat generated by the operation of electronic components, reduce heat accumulation, thereby preventing overheating, ensuring stable performance of the equipment and extending its service life; in addition, good ventilation also helps prevent the accumulation of moisture and dust, which are usually common causes of electronic equipment failure.

[0046] In this embodiment, the bottom shell 1 and the upper cover 2 are both made of reinforced polycarbonate material.

[0047] The reinforced polycarbonate material used in the bottom shell 1 and the upper cover 2 provides excellent mechanical strength and durability, giving the instrument better impact resistance and corrosion resistance. The use of reinforced polycarbonate material not only improves the structural integrity of the entire instrument equipment, but also ensures reliability in harsh environments, thereby extending the service life of the product; the high transparency of reinforced polycarbonate also helps to maintain the aesthetics of the instrument equipment, while facilitating the observation of the status of internal components and enhancing the maintenance convenience of the instrument equipment.

[0048] In this embodiment, the sealant 111 is made of silicone rubber.

[0049] The silicone rubber material used in the sealing groove 11 provides excellent sealing and durability for the sealant 111. The application of silicone rubber ensures that the sealing performance of the instrument during long-term use is not affected by environmental factors such as temperature changes and humidity, and keeps the inside of the instrument equipment dry and clean; silicone rubber has good elasticity and flexibility, can effectively absorb and relieve external pressure or impact, and reduce the risk of reduced sealing performance due to mechanical stress.
