[0040] To address the problem of water leakage that easily occurs when the cooling fan is removed from the water tank in the prior art, this application provides a water tank assembly and a cooling fan having the same.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the water tank assembly includes a housing 10, a water tank 20, and an adjustment assembly. The housing 10 has a first mounting port 11 and a water outlet 12. The water tank 20 is movably disposed at the first mounting port 11 and includes a first mating part 21. The adjustment assembly includes an adjustment structure 30, a second mating part 40, and a sealing part 50. The adjustment structure 30 includes a mounting part 31. The second mating part 40 and the sealing part 50 are both disposed on the adjustment structure 30 and located on both sides of the mounting part 31. The mounting part 31 is movably connected to the housing 10. The sealing part 50 is used to block or avoid the water outlet 12. The water tank assembly has an installed state in which the water tank 20 is installed in the first installation port 11 and a disassembled state in which at least a portion of the water tank 20 is removed from the first installation port 11. When the water tank 20 is in the installed state, the first mating part 21 and the second mating part 40 are in a limiting fit, and the sealing part 50 avoids the water outlet 12. When the water tank 20 is in the disassembled state, the first mating part 21 and the second mating part 40 are separated, and the sealing part 50 blocks the water outlet 12.

[0043] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, during the normal operation of the air cooler, the water tank assembly is in the installation state. At this time, the water tank 20 is installed in the first installation port 11, and the first mating part 21 and the second mating part 40 are mutually restrained, and the sealing part 50 avoids the water outlet 12, so as to ensure that the water tank assembly can be used normally. After the operator pulls out the water tank 20, the first mating part 21 and the second mating part 40 separate, and the sealing part 50 seals the water outlet 12, thereby preventing water from leaking out through the water outlet 12. This achieves the function of automatically locking and opening the water outlet 12 when the water tank 20 is pushed in, and automatically sealing the water outlet 12 when it is pulled out. This solves the problem of water leakage that easily occurs after the water tank is pulled out in the prior art, protects the equipment and the environment, and improves the user experience.

[0044] In this embodiment, when using the cooling fan, the user can more easily pull out and push in the water tank 20, achieving automatic locking of the water tank 20 without additional operation, thereby improving the user's ease of operation. Thus, by adjusting the dynamic fit and sealing function of the components, the water tank 20 can be quickly installed and removed, while effectively preventing leakage during disassembly, greatly improving the user experience and equipment efficiency.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the adjustment assembly also includes an elastic structure 60. The elastic structure 60 is connected to the adjustment structure 30 to apply an elastic force to the adjustment structure 30, causing it to move towards the first mounting port 11, thereby sealing the water outlet 12 with the sealing part 50. Thus, the aforementioned arrangement of the elastic structure 60 allows the sealing part 50 to automatically seal the water outlet 12 when no external force is applied, further enhancing the leak-proof performance of the water tank assembly. This effectively prevents accidental water leakage when replacing the water tank 20, protects the internal circuitry of the equipment from damage, reduces the hassle of cleaning leaked water for the user, and improves the user experience.

[0046] In this embodiment, when the water tank assembly is in the installation state, the elastic structure 60 stores energy. After the water tank 20 is pulled out, the elastic structure 60 releases elastic potential energy to push the adjustment structure 30 toward the first installation port 11, thereby causing the sealing part 50 to block the water outlet 12 to prevent water from leaking from the water outlet 12.

[0047] like Figure 2As shown, the second mating part 40 has a first guide slope 41, which is set at an obtuse angle A with the installation direction S of the water tank 20. During the process of the water tank 20 moving from a disassembled state to an installed state, the first mating part 21 pushes the first guide slope 41 towards the side away from the first installation opening 11, so that the sealing part 50 avoids the water outlet 12. Thus, during the process of the user pushing the water tank 20 into the first installation opening 11 along the installation direction S, the aforementioned arrangement of the first guide slope 41 ensures that the entire adjustment assembly receives an upward force, thereby achieving the avoidance of the sealing part 50 from the water outlet 12, ensuring that the water tank 20 can store water normally. This allows the water tank 20 to automatically push the sealing part to avoid the water outlet during installation, simplifying the installation steps and improving the installation efficiency of the water tank assembly.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first mating part 21 has a second guide slope that is adapted to the first guide slope 41. The first mating part 21 pushes the first guide slope 41 to move through the second guide slope. In this way, the above-mentioned arrangement increases the contact area and pushing force between the first mating part 21 and the first guide slope 41, further ensuring that the water tank 20 can automatically push the sealing part to avoid the water outlet during the installation process.

[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 8 As shown, the first mating part 21 is a snap-fit, and the outer surface of the snap-fit ​​has a first guide slope 41. The second mating part 40 is a recess. The water tank 20 also includes a water tank body 22 and a rib 23. The water tank body 22 has a water storage cavity. The rib 23 is disposed on the water tank body 22 to form a recess around the water tank body 22; the snap-fit ​​can extend into the recess to engage with it. This design of the snap-fit ​​and the recess makes the installation and disassembly of the water tank 20 more stable and reliable. At the same time, the recess formed by the rib 23 and the water tank body 22 increases the structural strength of the water tank 20 and extends its service life.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the housing 10 also has a second mounting port 13, located above the first mounting port 11. The adjustment assembly also includes a handle 70, which is disposed on the adjustment structure 30 and movably inserted into the second mounting port 13. By pulling the handle 70 in a direction moving away from the first mounting port 11, the latch can be disengaged from the recess. The handle 70 and the latch are located on opposite sides of the adjustment structure 30. This design of the handle 70 makes disassembly of the water tank 20 more convenient; users can easily disassemble the water tank 20 simply by pulling the handle 70. In daily use, this design allows users to easily and quickly replace the water tank 20 without the need for professional tools, making it especially suitable for families with elderly people and children, improving the user-friendliness of the equipment and reducing maintenance time.

[0051] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to pull the water tank 20 out of the first installation port 11, first pull the handle 70 upward to separate the first mating part 21 from the second mating part 40. Then, pull the water tank 20 in the opposite direction to the installation direction S to disassemble the water tank 20, which reduces the difficulty of operation for the user.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a mounting post 14 is provided on the housing 10. The elastic structure 60 is a spring, which is sleeved on the mounting post 14 and in contact with the mounting part 31. The mounting part 31 is movably sleeved on the mounting post 14. The adjustment assembly also includes a fastener 80, which passes through the mounting part 31 and the mounting post 14 to connect them. In this way, the cooperation design between the spring and the mounting post 14 allows the adjustment assembly to be stably installed on the housing 10. At the same time, the connection between the mounting part 31 and the mounting post 14 by the fastener 80 ensures the reliability and stability of the adjustment assembly. Furthermore, the above arrangement ensures that the adjustment assembly can be raised and lowered relative to the housing 10 to achieve the blocking or avoidance of the water outlet 12 by the sealing part 50.

[0053] like Figure 6 As shown, the mounting part 31 has a through hole and a receiving cavity that are interconnected, and the mounting post 14 passes through the through hole. The fastener 80 includes a head 81 and a threaded section 82. The head 81 is located in the receiving cavity, and the cavity wall of the receiving cavity is used to limit and stop the head 81. The threaded section 82 is connected to the head 81 and extends into the mounting post 14, where it is threadedly connected. In this way, the design of the head 81 of the fastener 80 limiting and stopping the cavity wall, and the threaded connection between the threaded section 82 and the mounting post 14, make the installation and disassembly of the adjustment assembly more convenient. At the same time, the receiving cavity can shield and protect the head 81, thereby preventing structural interference problems during the user's pulling out of the water tank 20, making the disassembly and assembly of the water tank assembly easier and simpler.

[0054] In this embodiment, the mounting post 14 extends into the through hole. During the movement of the adjustment structure 30 relative to the housing 10, the mounting post 14 can guide the adjustment structure 30 to ensure that the sealing part 50 can accurately seal the water outlet 12.

[0055] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 8 As shown, the water tank 20 also includes a flow guiding structure 24, which is positioned corresponding to the water outlet 12 when the water tank assembly is in the installed state. The flow guiding structure 24 has a flow guiding cone surface, the outer diameter of which gradually increases along the height of the water tank assembly; alternatively, the flow guiding structure 24 has a flow guiding slope 241. This configuration of the flow guiding structure 24 not only makes the water flow smoother when entering the water tank 20, reducing turbulence and noise to eliminate water flow sound, but also guides the water flowing out of the water outlet 12 to prevent splashing. Furthermore, this configuration allows for more diverse flow guiding methods of the flow guiding structure 24 to meet different usage needs and working conditions, and also improves the processing flexibility of the operators.

[0056] In this embodiment, the flow guiding structure 24 includes a flow guiding column, and the flow guiding slope is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the flow guiding column.

[0057] Optionally, there are multiple guide slopes, which are arranged circumferentially around the guide column.

[0058] like Figure 7 As shown, the adjustment structure 30 includes a mounting plate 32 and a surrounding edge 33. The mounting portion 31 is disposed on the mounting plate 32, the second mating portion 40 is disposed on the first surface of the mounting plate 32, and the sealing portion 50 is disposed on the second surface of the mounting plate 32; at least a portion of the mounting portion 31 is bent to form a handle 70. The surrounding edge 33 is disposed on the second surface. This arrangement simplifies the structure of the adjustment structure 30, making it easier to manufacture and implement, thus reducing manufacturing costs and difficulties. Furthermore, the surrounding edge 33 acts as a water barrier, ensuring that water enters the water tank 20 entirely through the water outlet 12.

[0059] like Figure 6As shown, the sealing part 50 includes a connecting post 51 and a sealing block 52. The first end of the connecting post 51 is connected to the adjustment structure 30. The sealing block 52 is disposed on the second end of the connecting post 51. The sealing block 52 passes through the water outlet 12 and extends into the housing 10 to seal the end of the water outlet 12 furthest from the first mounting port 11. This arrangement allows the sealing part 50 to stably seal the water outlet 12 and automatically avoids obstruction during the installation of the water tank 20, simplifying the installation process. Furthermore, this arrangement simplifies the structure of the sealing part 50, making it easier to manufacture and implement, thus reducing the manufacturing cost and difficulty of the sealing part 50.

[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the water outlet 12 includes a conical section and a straight section that are interconnected, with the conical section located at the end of the straight section away from the first mounting port 11. The outer peripheral surface of the sealing block 52 includes a conical surface; wherein, when the water tank assembly is in the installed state, the conical surface is in contact with the conical section. Thus, the conical design of the conical section and the sealing block 52 makes the seal between the sealing part 50 and the water outlet 12 more reliable, reducing water leakage. Simultaneously, when the sealing part 50 seals the water outlet 12, the above-mentioned arrangement increases the contact area between the two, thereby improving the sealing effect of the sealing part 50.

[0061] Specifically, when the user needs to push the water tank 20 in, simply push the water tank 20 into the first installation port 11 along the installation direction S. At this time, the first mating part 21 and the second mating part 40 mutually limit each other to lock the water tank 20. At the same time, the adjusting structure 30 rises and the spring is compressed, and the sealing part 50 rises synchronously. Water on the wet curtain and the rear shell can flow down from the gap between the connecting column 51 and the water outlet 12, and finally flow into the water tank 20 through the guide structure 24. When the user needs to pull out the water tank 20, by pulling the handle 70, the first mating part 21 and the second mating part 40 separate to unlock the water tank 20. Pull out the water tank 20. At this time, the spring returns to its original position, the adjusting structure 30 descends and drives the sealing part 50 to descend, so as to block the water outlet 12 and prevent residual water from continuing to flow out.

[0062] This application also provides a cooling fan, including the water tank assembly described above.

[0063] Example 2

[0064] The difference between the water tank assembly in Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that the structure of the sealing part 50 is different.

[0065] like Figures 9 to 15As shown, the sealing part 50 is in the shape of a sheet or plate, used to seal the end of the water outlet 12 facing the first mounting port 11. This sheet or plate shape allows the sealing part 50 to more completely seal the water outlet 12. At the same time, this design simplifies the structure of the sealing part 50, making it easier to manufacture and implement, thus reducing the manufacturing cost and difficulty.

[0066] In this embodiment, the sealing surface of the water outlet 12 is changed to the bottom, and the water outlet 12 can be sealed and opened by adopting a lever principle structure.

[0067] In this embodiment, the sealing part 50 is located outside the housing 10, so that the maintenance and replacement of the sealing part 50 are easier and simpler, reducing the difficulty of operation for users.

[0068] like Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the housing 10 has a mounting recess 15, and the adjustment structure 30 includes a connecting shaft 34. The connecting shaft 34 is mounted on the mounting plate 32 or the surrounding edge 33, and is rotatably mounted within the mounting recess 15. This design, where the connecting shaft 34 and the mounting recess 15 cooperate, allows the adjustment assembly to rotate more flexibly and improves the connection stability between the adjustment structure 30 and the housing 10.

[0069] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:

[0070] The water tank assembly includes a housing, a water tank, and an adjustment component. The housing has a first mounting port and a water outlet. The water tank is movably mounted at the first mounting port and includes a first mating part. The adjustment component includes an adjustment structure, a second mating part, and a sealing part. The adjustment structure includes a mounting part, and the second mating part and the sealing part are both disposed on the adjustment structure and located on both sides of the mounting part. The mounting part is movably connected to the housing. The sealing part is used to block or obstruct the water outlet. In this way, during the normal operation of the evaporator, the water tank assembly is in the installation state. At this time, the water tank is installed in the first installation port, and the first mating part and the second mating part are in a limiting fit, while the sealing part avoids the water outlet hole, to ensure that the water tank assembly can be used normally. After the operator pulls out the water tank, the first mating part and the second mating part separate, and the sealing part seals the water outlet hole, thereby preventing water from leaking out through the water outlet hole. This achieves the function of automatically locking and opening the water outlet hole when the water tank is pushed in, and automatically sealing the water outlet hole when it is pulled out. This solves the problem of water leakage that easily occurs after the water tank is pulled out in the existing technology, protects the equipment and the environment, and improves the user experience.
