[0021] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] See Figures 1-5 The humidification water tank structure of this refrigeration equipment includes a box body 1 and a receiving box 2. The box body 1 and the receiving box 2 are respectively integrated. The box body 1 can be disassembled and placed on the receiving box 2. The receiving box 2 is also provided with a panel 3, and the panel 3 is provided with a handle 4.

[0024] In this embodiment, the housing 1 and the receiving box 2 are integrally set to separate them. In addition, a panel 3 is set on the receiving box 2, which effectively reduces the manufacturing process of the housing 1, the receiving box 2, and the panel 3, making production and processing easier. At the same time, the housing 1 can be disassembled and placed on the receiving box 2, so as to facilitate the individual disassembly and assembly of the housing 1, thereby improving the daily maintenance of the housing 1 and providing high flexibility. Moreover, the integrally set housing 1 has good integrity and will not have any water leakage problems during use. In addition, a handle 4 is set on the panel 3, which allows the user to pull the receiving box 2 and the housing 1 onto the refrigeration equipment, further improving the user experience.

[0025] The refrigeration equipment in this embodiment can be a wine cabinet, cigar cabinet, etc., which includes a cabinet body 100, a door 200 that opens and closes on the front side of the cabinet body 100, a box 1 placed on a receiving box 2 and pulled out of the cabinet body 100 by a handle 4. When the receiving box 2 is pulled out of the cabinet body 100, the user can take out the box 1, which is convenient to operate. In addition, the panel 3 can improve the overall appearance.

[0026] The box 1 is made of plastic in one piece and has an open top. The receiving box 2 is made of plastic or metal in one piece and has a receiving groove 5 on it. The box 1 can be disassembled and positioned on the receiving groove 5.

[0027] In this embodiment, the box 1 is integrally injection molded from plastic, with an open top. The receiving box 2 is made of metal and uses the receiving groove 5 to support the box 1.

[0028] The front wall, left and right side walls, and rear wall of the receiving box 2 together form the receiving groove 5. The inner dimensions of the receiving groove 5 match the outer dimensions of the box body 1, so that the box body 1 can be positioned on the receiving groove 5, and the box body 1 can be prevented from shifting when the receiving box 2 is pulled out.

[0029] The height of the front wall of the receiving box 2 is the same as the height of the left and right side walls and the rear wall, or the height of the front wall of the receiving box 2 is higher than the height of the left and right side walls and the rear wall.

[0030] Specifically, the height of the front wall of the receiving box 2 is higher than the height of the rear wall, the height of the rear wall of the receiving box 2 is the same as the height of the rear ends of the left and right side walls, and the front ends of the left and right side walls of the receiving box 2 extend at an angle towards the front wall.

[0031] Panel 3 and receiving box 2 are either integrally formed or separately installed and then fixed to each other by fasteners, snaps, or adhesive.

[0032] Specifically, the panel 3 is integrally formed from plastic, metal, or wood, and is provided with panel fastening holes 6. The front wall of the receiving box 2 is provided with receiving box fastening holes 7. The receiving box fastening holes 7 and the panel fastening holes 6 correspond to each other and are fixed to each other by fasteners.

[0033] In this embodiment, the panel 3 is integrally formed from wood and is fixed to the front wall of the receiving box 2 by fasteners, thereby improving the assembly stability between the panel 3 and the receiving box 2.

[0034] The box 1 is made of transparent or semi-transparent plastic in one piece. The panel 3 is provided with a panel viewing part 8, and the front wall of the receiving box 2 is provided with a receiving box viewing part 9. The panel viewing part 8 and the receiving box viewing part 9 correspond to each other.

[0035] In this embodiment, the panel perspective section 8 and the receiving box perspective section 9 are respectively longitudinally opened on the front wall of the panel 3 and the receiving box 2. The box 1 is transparent, and the user can observe the water level inside the box 1 through the panel perspective section 8 and the receiving box perspective section 9.

[0036] The height of panel 3 is greater than or equal to the height of cabinet 1.

[0037] In this embodiment, the height of panel 3 is higher than that of box 1, which not only improves the overall appearance, but also allows panel 3 to shield box 1 when the receiving box 2 is stored inside cabinet 100, preventing foreign objects from entering box 1.

[0038] The handle 4 is fixed to the panel 3 by fasteners, clips, or adhesive.

[0039] The handle 4 is provided with a handle mounting hole 10, and the panel 3 is provided with a mounting mating hole 11. The handle mounting hole 10 and the mounting mating hole 11 correspond to each other and are fixed to each other by fasteners.

[0040] In this embodiment, the handle 4 is fixed to the panel 3 by fasteners, which can improve the assembly stability between the handle 4 and the panel 3.
