Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but only represents selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of the present application.

[0021] The present embodiment provides a truck self-heating washing water tank, as shown inFigure 1 、 2 , including:

[0022] The water tank body 1 is provided with a fixing part at the bottom, which is a connecting lug 2 provided with a mounting hole 10. A corresponding threaded hole is arranged on the truck muffler 4. The connecting lug 2 is connected to the top of the truck muffler 4 through a bolt assembly 3. The top of the truck muffler 4 is in contact with the water tank body 1. When the truck is running, the heat inside the truck muffler 4 is transmitted to the bottom of the water tank body 1, thereby heating the liquid inside the water tank body 1, achieving the purpose of self-heating. This way does not need to set up a separate heat source, only uses the heat of the truck muffler 4 itself to realize the reuse of heat, which is environmentally friendly and pollution-free, simple in structure, easy to install, meets the demand of truck drivers for hot water in winter, and has strong practicality and market application prospect.

[0023] In a further embodiment, the water tank body 1 is made of high-efficiency heat-conducting material, including but not limited to stainless steel material, which has excellent heat conductivity, corrosion resistance and structural strength.

[0024] The capacity of the water tank body 1 can be selected as 50L or 100L, which is configured according to the type and purpose of the truck.

[0025] The water tank body 1 is designed as a rectangular or cylindrical shape, which is convenient to install at the bottom of the truck or in the truck cabin.

[0026] The side wall of the water tank body 1 is also provided with a transparent water level window 11, which is convenient for the driver to observe the water level inside the water tank body 1.

[0027] In another preferred embodiment, a water level sensor (not shown in the figure) can also be provided in the water tank body 1 to monitor the water level in real time and prevent dry burning.

[0028] In a further embodiment, the water tank body 1 is provided with a temperature sensor (not shown in the figure) and a digital display meter 5. The temperature sensor is installed inside the water tank body 1 to detect the water temperature inside the water tank body 1. The digital display meter 5 is installed on the outside of the water tank body 1 and is electrically connected with the temperature sensor to display the water temperature, which is convenient for the driver to check the water temperature.

[0029] In a further embodiment, a washing cup holder 6 is fixed to the side of the water tank body 1 to provide a more convenient washing experience for the driver. The washing cup holder 6 is designed as a cylindrical stainless steel cylinder made of high-quality stainless steel material, which has excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance, can effectively prolong the service life and maintain the appearance.

[0030] The upper part of the wash cup holder 6 is an open structure, which is convenient for users to take and place the wash supplies at any time. The closed design at the bottom ensures that the wash supplies box will not accidentally slide during placement, enhancing the safety and stability of use. Users can place commonly used wash supplies such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, facial cleanser, etc. directly in the stainless steel cylinder, which is convenient for taking at any time, avoiding the embarrassing situation of previous wash supplies being placed randomly or not found.

[0031] In further embodiments, a water outlet is provided at the lower part of the side wall of the water tank body 1, and a water outlet pipe 7 and a water outlet valve 8 are provided at the water outlet. This design greatly facilitates the user's access to hot water during use, optimizing the user experience.

[0032] The position of the water outlet is carefully designed to be located at the lower part of the water tank body 1, ensuring the natural discharge of water flow and avoiding the problem of poor water flow caused by gravity. Through the water outlet valve 8, users can easily control the outflow of hot water without complex operations. Simply rotating or pressing the valve can achieve precise control of water flow, providing great convenience for drivers in busy or emergency situations.

[0033] The water outlet pipe 7 is made of high-temperature resistant and corrosion-resistant material, ensuring that the pipe will not be damaged when high-temperature water flows through. At the same time, the design of the water outlet pipe 7 also considers the smoothness of the water flow, reducing the resistance in the water flow, thereby improving the efficiency of water outlet. Whether it is for washing, cleaning tools, or daily life, drivers can quickly and conveniently obtain hot water.

[0034] In actual use, users only need to open the water outlet valve 8, and hot water will quickly flow out to meet the daily washing or cleaning needs. This design not only improves the convenience of washing, but also improves work efficiency. Especially during long-distance driving, drivers can quickly complete washing in the car, maintaining good personal hygiene.

[0035] In further embodiments, a water inlet is designed at the top of the water tank body 1, and a pressure valve cover 9 is provided at the water inlet. This design not only facilitates users to quickly add water when needed, but also ensures the safety and practicality of the water tank.

[0036] When adding water is needed, users only need to simply open the pressure valve cover 9 to conveniently inject water into the water tank. This one-key operation method saves complicated steps, and users can complete water injection in a short time, greatly improving the use efficiency. Whether in long-distance driving or in daily maintenance, the quick water injection design can effectively reduce the waiting time of users, making drivers more comfortable in their busy journey.

[0037] It is worth noting that the pressure valve cover 9 has a pressure relief function, which can effectively prevent the internal pressure of the water tank from being too high. When the water temperature in the water tank rises or the water volume increases, the pressure valve will automatically release the excess pressure, ensuring that the water tank operates within a safe range. This safety design effectively avoids the potential explosion risk of the water tank due to overpressure, ensuring the safety of users.

[0038] The material of the pressure valve cover 9 is selected from high-quality materials that are resistant to high temperature and corrosion, ensuring that it can still work stably in a high-temperature environment and is not prone to aging or damage. At the same time, the sealing performance of the valve cover is good, which can effectively prevent water evaporation or external foreign matter from entering the water tank, keeping the internal environment of the water tank clean.

[0039] In addition, the design of the pressure valve cover 9 also fully considers the user's usage habits, adopting an easy-to-operate rotary or press type design, so that even in uneven driving environments, the driver can easily open the cover and fill water more smoothly. This humanized design not only improves the user experience, but also reduces accidents caused by improper operation.

[0040] In summary, the water tank body 1 top is provided with a water inlet and a pressure valve cover 9, which not only provides great convenience, making the water filling process simple and fast, but also ensures the safety of the system through the pressure relief function. This innovative design reflects the important role of modern technology in improving people's quality of life, providing users with a safer and more convenient use experience.

[0041] In further embodiments, a power supply system is also provided for powering the temperature sensor and the digital display 5, which is connected to the truck power system through a 12V or 24V power interface, making it easy to use.
