Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of hot water supply equipment, and in particular to a water receiving tray and a heat pump water heater. Background Technology

[0002] To enable a heat pump water heater to provide hot water, it typically contains various functional components such as an evaporator and a compressor. For these components to function properly, corresponding conductive wiring harnesses are required. However, the current layout of these conductive harnesses inside heat pump water heaters is rather chaotic and complex, making it difficult for operators to quickly perform maintenance should a fault occur. Utility Model Content

[0003] The first technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a water receiving tray, which effectively solves the problem that the wiring harness layout inside existing heat pump water heaters is relatively messy and complicated, which is not conducive to subsequent maintenance work.

[0004] The second technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a heat pump water heater that effectively solves the problem that the wiring harness layout inside existing heat pump water heaters is relatively messy and complicated, which is not conducive to subsequent maintenance work.

[0005] The first technical problem mentioned above is solved by the following technical solution:

[0006] A water receiving tray for a heat pump water heater includes a tray body, a plurality of first clips, and a plurality of second clips. The plurality of first clips and the plurality of second clips are arranged sequentially at intervals along the circumference of the tray body at the edge of the tray body. There is no second clip between any two adjacent first clips, and no first clip between any two adjacent second clips. The first clips are used to fix high-voltage wires, and the second clips are used to fix low-voltage wires.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the water receiving tray of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0008] Taking a heat pump water heater as an example, when using the water receiving tray of this utility model, the water receiving tray can serve as a carrier for electrical components and conductive wire harnesses used in conjunction with the electrical components in the heat pump water heater. After the electrical components and their associated conductive wire harnesses are installed on the water receiving tray, the conductive wire harnesses are divided into high-voltage wires and low-voltage wires according to their voltage levels. Then, multiple first and second clips on the tray are used to secure the high-voltage and low-voltage wires respectively. Since the multiple first and second clips are arranged sequentially and at intervals along the circumference of the tray edge, and there are no second clips between any two adjacent first clips, and no first clips between any two adjacent second clips, the high-voltage and low-voltage wires are secured in separate areas on the tray. This not only allows for the classification of the conductive wire harnesses but also makes it easy to distinguish between high-voltage and low-voltage wires, improving the convenience of subsequent maintenance operations. At the same time, the sequential and intervals along the circumference of the tray edge do not encroach on the installation space for subsequent electrical components, improving the utilization rate of the space on the tray.

[0009] In one embodiment, the water receiving tray further includes an annular flange surrounding the periphery of the tray body, with a plurality of first buckles disposed toward the inner sidewall of the annular flange; at least a portion of the sidewall of each first buckle is spaced from the inner sidewall of the annular flange to form a space for placing a high-voltage wire.

[0010] In one embodiment, the first buckle includes a first body and a first hook portion disposed on the upper end of the first body. The first body is fixedly connected to the annular flange or the first body is fixedly connected to the disc body. The first hook portion is disposed toward the inner wall of the annular flange and is spaced apart from the inner wall of the annular flange. The first hook portion is provided with a first guide slope that is inclined from top to bottom toward the inner wall of the annular flange.

[0011] In one embodiment, the second buckle includes a pair of second bodies disposed on the upper surface of the disc body and disposed opposite to each other, with a gap between the pair of second bodies to form a space for placing a low-voltage wire.

[0012] In one embodiment, a pair of second bodies are inclined from bottom to top toward each other, and each second body has a second hook at its upper end. There is a gap between the opposite sides of the second hooks of the same pair of second bodies and a second guide slope inclined from top to bottom toward each other.

[0013] In one embodiment, the distance between the first hook and the inner wall of the annular flange is less than the distance between the first body and the inner wall of the annular flange; and / or the distance between the second hooks is less than the distance between the second bodies.

[0014] In one embodiment, the disk body is further provided with a high-voltage wire fixing seat and a first pressure plate detachably connected to the high-voltage wire fixing seat, and a high-voltage wire passage hole is formed between the high-voltage wire fixing seat and the first pressure plate.

[0015] In one embodiment, the axial direction of the high-voltage wire through hole is perpendicular to the axial direction of the disc body, and the outer wall of the annular flange is provided with an arc-shaped buckle that cooperates with the high-voltage wire fixing seat.

[0016] In one embodiment, the disk body is further provided with a low-voltage wire fixing seat and a second pressure plate detachably connected to the low-voltage wire fixing seat, and a low-voltage wire passage hole is formed between the low-voltage wire fixing seat and the second pressure plate.

[0017] The second technical problem mentioned above is solved by the following technical solution:

[0018] A heat pump water heater, comprising:

[0019] Host;

[0020] The aforementioned water receiving tray has the main unit located on the upper surface of the tray body;

[0021] The front and rear covers are installed on the disc body and are detachable, with multiple second clips located on the corresponding front covers.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the heat pump water heater described in this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] Compared to existing heat pump water heaters, the heat pump water heater equipped with this drip tray has a simpler and more orderly internal conductive wiring harness layout. Specifically, when using the drip tray of this invention, the drip tray can serve as a support for the electrical components and the conductive wiring harnesses used in conjunction with these components in the heat pump water heater. After the electrical components and their associated conductive wires are installed on the water receiving tray, the conductive wires are divided into high-voltage wires and low-voltage wires according to their voltage levels. Since multiple first and second clips are arranged sequentially and at intervals along the circumference of the tray edge, and there are no second clips between adjacent first clips and no first clips between adjacent second clips, the high-voltage and low-voltage wires are fixed in separate areas on the tray. This not only allows for the classification of the conductive wires but also makes it easy to distinguish between high-voltage and low-voltage wires, improving the convenience of subsequent maintenance operations. Furthermore, the sequential and intervals along the circumference of the tray edge do not encroach on the installation space for subsequent electrical components, thus improving the utilization rate of space on the tray.

[0024] Meanwhile, since the lifespan of low-voltage wires is usually shorter than that of high-voltage wires, the second clip for fixing low-voltage wires is positioned on the side of the front cover, which is beneficial for subsequent maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0039] To address the problem that the wiring harness layout inside existing heat pump water heaters is rather messy and complex, which is not conducive to subsequent maintenance, this utility model provides a water receiving tray and a heat pump water heater.

[0040] The following is combined Figures 1 to 7 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0041] According to embodiments of the present invention, on the one hand, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a water receiving tray for a heat pump water heater is provided, including a tray body 1, a plurality of first clips 102 and a plurality of second clips 103. The plurality of first clips 102 and the plurality of second clips 103 are arranged sequentially and at intervals along the circumference of the tray body 1 at the edge of the tray body 1. There is no second clip 103 between any two adjacent first clips 102, and there is no first clip 102 between any two adjacent second clips 103. The first clips 102 are used to fix high-voltage wires, and the second clips 103 are used to fix low-voltage wires.

[0042] Taking a heat pump water heater as an example, when using the water receiving tray of this embodiment, the water receiving tray can serve as a carrier for electrical components and conductive wire harnesses used in conjunction with the electrical components in the heat pump water heater. After the electrical components and their associated conductive wire harnesses are installed on the water receiving tray, the conductive wire harnesses are divided into high-voltage wires and low-voltage wires according to their voltage levels. Then, multiple first clips 102 and multiple second clips 103 on the tray body 1 are used to fix the high-voltage and low-voltage wires respectively for later maintenance. Since the multiple first clips 102 and multiple second clips 103 are arranged sequentially and spaced along the circumference of the tray body 1 at intervals along its edge, and there is no second clip 103 between any two adjacent first clips 102, and no first clip 102 between any two adjacent second clips 103, the high-voltage and low-voltage wires are fixed in separate areas on the tray body 1. This not only allows for the classification of the conductive wire harnesses but also makes it easy to distinguish between high-voltage and low-voltage wires, improving the convenience of subsequent maintenance operations. At the same time, it does not encroach on the installation space for subsequent electrical components, improving the utilization rate of space on the tray body.

[0043] It should be further explained that during the operation of a heat pump water heater, condensation will form around the internal electrical components such as the evaporator, fan, evaporator inlet pipe, and compressor. Therefore, when the internal electrical components of the heat pump water heater are installed on the drip tray in this embodiment, the drip tray can also be used to collect the condensation generated by the aforementioned electrical components during operation, thereby preventing the condensation from flowing freely inside the heat pump water heater and reducing the risk of short circuits or damp components caused by the free flow of condensation. Furthermore, to prevent the continuous accumulation of condensation on the drip tray, at least one drain hole can be provided on the drip tray to facilitate the timely drainage of condensation that has accumulated to a certain height outside the heat pump water heater, ensuring the safety of the electrical components.

[0044] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the water receiving tray also includes an annular flange 104 surrounding the upper surface 101 of the tray body 1, and a plurality of first buckles 102 are disposed toward the inner sidewall of the annular flange 104; at least a portion of the sidewall of each first buckle 102 is spaced with the inner sidewall of the annular flange 104 to form a space for placing a high-voltage wire.

[0045] Since the water tray needs to support the electrical components and conductive wires inside the heat pump water heater, this embodiment provides an annular flange 104 on the periphery of the tray body 1. On the one hand, this enhances the structural strength of the water tray, reduces the possibility of deformation, and ensures that the electrical components remain in their preset positions within the heat pump water heater. On the other hand, the annular flange 104 allows the outer surface of the water tray to fit the outer surface of the heat pump water heater, reducing any abruptness or incongruity in the water heater's appearance and maintaining the overall integrity of its side profile. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the inner walls of the first buckle 102 and the annular flange 104 work together to form a space for placing high-voltage wires. This design fully utilizes the structural characteristics of the tray body 1 and simplifies the complexity of the first buckle 102's structure.

[0046] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first buckle 102 includes a first body 1021 and a first hook portion 1022 disposed on the upper end of the first body 1021. The first body 1021 is fixedly connected to the annular flange 104 or the first body 1021 is fixedly connected to the disc body 1. The first hook portion 1022 is disposed towards the inner wall of the annular flange 104 and has a gap between it and the inner wall of the annular flange 104. The first hook portion 1022 is provided with a first guide slope 10221 that slopes downwards towards the inner wall of the annular flange 104. When a high-voltage wire is placed in the space for placing the high-voltage wire, the inner wall of the first body 1021 and the annular flange 104 can prevent the high-voltage wire from moving freely in the radial direction of the disc body 1. The first hook portion 1022 located on the upper end of the first body 1021 and the upper surface 101 of the disc body 1 can prevent the high-voltage wire from moving freely in the axial direction of the disc body 1. In addition, a first guide slope 10221 is provided on the first hook 1022, so that the high-voltage wire can smoothly enter the space for placing the high-voltage wire under the guidance of the first guide slope 10221, reducing the difficulty of installing and fixing the high-voltage wire.

[0047] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the upper end of the first main body 1021 is the end of the first main body 1021 that is away from the upper surface 101 of the disk body 1, and the specific direction is the same as... Figure 1 The directions shown in the diagram are consistent.

[0048] Furthermore, since water may accumulate in the drip tray, it is important to prevent the water in the drip tray from coming into contact with the high-voltage power lines. Figure 2As shown, in one example, the first buckle 102 further includes a first base 1023 set on the upper surface 101 of the disc body 1. The first base 1023 is located at the end of the first body 1021 away from the first hook 1022 and is connected to the inner side wall of the annular flange 104. This can raise the power cable so that the installation position of the power cable is higher than the upper surface 101 of the disc body 1, thereby effectively preventing the power cable from contacting water accumulation.

[0049] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, a second latch 103 is disposed on the upper surface 101 of the disk body 1, and a pair of second bodies 1031 are disposed opposite each other. A gap is left between the pair of second bodies 1031 to form a space for placing the low-voltage wire. When the low-voltage wire is placed in the space for placing the low-voltage wire, the pair of second bodies 1031 can prevent the low-voltage wire from moving arbitrarily along the radial direction of the disk body 1.

[0050] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the upper end of the second main body 1031 is the end of the second main body 1031 that is away from the upper surface 101 of the disk body 1, and the specific direction is the same as... Figure 1 The directions shown in the diagram are consistent.

[0051] Furthermore, since water may accumulate in the drip tray, it is important to prevent the water in the drip tray from coming into contact with the low-voltage electrical wires. Figure 6 As shown, in one example, the second buckle 103 further includes a second base 1033 disposed on the upper surface 101 of the disc body 1. The second base 1033 is located at the end of the second body 1031 away from the second hook 1032 and is connected to a pair of second bodies 1031, thereby raising the low-voltage cable so that the installation position of the low-voltage cable is higher than the upper surface 101 of the disc body 1, thereby effectively preventing the low-voltage cable from contacting water accumulation.

[0052] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, a pair of second bodies 1031 are inclined from bottom to top towards each other. Each second body 1031 has a second hook 1032 at its upper end. A gap is left between the opposite sides of the second hooks 1032 on the same pair of second bodies 1031, and a second guide slope 10321 inclined from top to bottom towards each other is provided. When the low-voltage cable is placed in the space for placing the low-voltage cable, the pair of second hooks 1032 prevents the low-voltage cable from moving freely along the axial direction of the disc body 1. Furthermore, the second guide slope 10321 on the second hooks 1032 allows the low-voltage cable to smoothly enter the space for placing the low-voltage cable under the guidance of the second guide slope 10321, reducing the difficulty of installing and fixing the low-voltage cable.

[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the pair of second bodies 1031 are inclined from bottom to top toward each other, so that a placement space with a larger bottom and a smaller top can be formed between the pair of second bodies 1031. In this way, more low-voltage wires can be placed between the pair of second bodies 1031, while the distance between the upper ends of the pair of second bodies 1031 can be reduced, increasing the difficulty of the low-voltage wires accidentally detaching from the pair of second bodies 1031, and ensuring the limiting and fixing effect of the pair of second bodies 1031 on the low-voltage wires.

[0054] In one embodiment, the distance between the first hook portion 1022 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104 is smaller than the distance between the first body 1021 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104; and / or the distance between the second hook portions 1032 is smaller than the distance between the second bodies 1031. Since the space for placing high-voltage wires is mainly formed by the first body 1021 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104, making the distance between the first body 1021 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104 greater than the distance between the first hook portions 1022 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104 allows for the placement of more high-voltage wires between the first body 1021 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104; it also reduces the probability of high-voltage wires accidentally leaving the high-voltage wire placement space through the distance between the first hook portions 1022 and the inner wall of the annular flange 104. Similarly, a distance between the second hook portions 1032 that is smaller than the distance between the second bodies 1031 has a similar effect, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0055] It should be noted that, to ensure the proper functioning of the heat pump water heater, a small portion of the low-voltage wiring inside the heat pump water heater needs to be routed to the external environment. Therefore, to further optimize the layout of the conductive wiring harness inside the heat pump water heater, such as... Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the multiple second clips 103 can be divided into at least one first sub-clip 1034 and at least one second sub-clip 1035. The first sub-clip 1034 is used to secure low-voltage wires that do not need to be extended, while the second sub-clip 1035 is used to secure low-voltage wires that do need to be extended. Furthermore, to facilitate the differentiation between the first sub-clip 1034 and the second sub-clip 1035, the size of the first sub-clip 1034 can be made larger. This not only allows operators to quickly identify the first sub-clip 1034 in a short time, but also allows the first sub-clip 1034 to meet the need to secure more low-voltage wires that do not need to be extended. Similarly, making the size of the second sub-clip 1035 smaller allows it to match the number of extended low-voltage wires while also reducing the production cost of the second clips 103.

[0056] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5As shown, the panel 1 is also provided with a high-voltage wire fixing seat 105 and a first pressure plate 106 detachably connected to the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105. A high-voltage wire passage hole 1051 is formed between the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105 and the first pressure plate 106. The cooperation between the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105 and the first pressure plate 106 can further lock the position of the high-voltage wire on the panel 1, reducing the possibility of it deviating from the preset position. Furthermore, the high-voltage wire passage hole 1051 between the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105 and the first pressure plate 106 can make the high-voltage wire passage hole 1051 fit the shape of the high-voltage wire, avoiding damage to the high-voltage wire caused by the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105 and the first pressure plate 106. In addition, the first pressure plate 106 is detachably connected to the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105, which allows operators to easily insert or remove the high-voltage wire into or out of the high-voltage wire passage hole 1051, improving the convenience of high-voltage wire installation and maintenance.

[0057] It should be noted that the connection method between the first pressure plate 106 and the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105 in this embodiment can be, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​and screw-fit, as long as it can ensure that the two can be disassembled. This utility model does not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0058] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the axial direction of the high-voltage wire through hole 1051 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the plate body 1, and the outer wall of the plate body 1 is provided with an arc-shaped buckle 2 that cooperates with the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105. When installing the high-voltage wire, the axial direction of the high-voltage wire through hole 1051 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the plate body 1, which makes it easier for the operator to lead the high-voltage wire out of the heat pump water heater through the high-voltage wire through hole 1051. Furthermore, by providing the arc-shaped buckle 2 on the outer wall of the plate body 1 that cooperates with the high-voltage wire fixing seat 105, the high-voltage wire can be made to fit against the outer wall of the heat pump water heater, preventing the high-voltage wire from moving freely on the outer wall of the heat pump water heater under the influence of external forces.

[0059] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the panel 1 is also provided with a low-voltage cable fixing base 107 and a second pressure plate 108 detachably connected to the low-voltage cable fixing base 107. A low-voltage cable passage hole 1081 is formed between the low-voltage cable fixing base 107 and the second pressure plate 108. The cooperation between the low-voltage cable fixing base 107 and the second pressure plate 108 can further lock the position of the low-voltage cable on the panel 1, reducing the possibility of it deviating from the preset position. Furthermore, the low-voltage cable passage hole 1081 between the low-voltage cable fixing base 107 and the second pressure plate 108 can make the low-voltage cable passage hole 1081 fit the shape of the low-voltage cable, avoiding damage to the low-voltage cable caused by the low-voltage cable fixing base 107 and the second pressure plate 108. In addition, the second pressure plate 108 is detachably connected to the low-voltage cable fixing base 107, allowing operators to easily insert or remove the low-voltage cable into or out of the low-voltage cable passage hole 1081, improving the convenience of low-voltage cable installation and maintenance.

[0060] It should be noted that the connection method between the second pressure plate 108 and the low-voltage wire fixing seat 107 in this embodiment can be, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​and screw-fit, as long as it can ensure that the two can be disassembled. This utility model does not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0061] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the other hand, as... Figure 7 As shown, a heat pump water heater is also provided, including: a main unit, the aforementioned water receiving tray, a water tank 3, and a front cover and a rear cover (not shown in the figure). Specifically, the main unit is located on the upper surface 101 of the tray 1; the water tank 3 is located on the lower surface 109 of the tray 1; the front cover and the rear cover are detachably installed on the tray 1, and the front cover and the rear cover can be separated.

[0062] Compared to existing heat pump water heaters, the heat pump water heater equipped with this drip tray has a simpler and more orderly internal conductive wiring harness layout. Specifically, when using the drip tray of this embodiment, the drip tray can serve as a carrier for electrical components and the conductive wiring harnesses used in conjunction with these components in the heat pump water heater. After the electrical components and their associated conductive wire harnesses are installed on the water receiving tray, the conductive wire harnesses are divided into high-voltage wires and low-voltage wires according to their voltage levels. Then, multiple first clips 102 and multiple second clips 103 on the tray body 1 are used to fix the high-voltage and low-voltage wires respectively. Since the multiple first clips 102 and multiple second clips 103 are arranged sequentially and at intervals along the circumference of the tray body 1 at its edge, and there is no second clip 103 between any two adjacent first clips 102, and no first clip 102 between any two adjacent second clips 103, the high-voltage and low-voltage wires are fixed in separate areas on the tray body 1. This not only allows for the classification of the conductive wire harnesses but also makes it easy to distinguish between high-voltage and low-voltage wires, improving the convenience of subsequent maintenance operations. At the same time, it does not encroach on the installation space for subsequent electrical components, improving the utilization rate of space on the tray body.

[0063] Meanwhile, since the service life of low-voltage wires is usually shorter than that of high-voltage wires, the second clip 103 for fixing low-voltage wires is set on the side of the front cover, which is beneficial for subsequent maintenance.

[0064] It should be noted that the host in this embodiment contains, but is not limited to, core components such as a compressor, condenser, fan, evaporator, and electronic control system.
