[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 6 A protective device for a gas water heater includes: a body 1, the body 1 including a panel 101, a protective shell 2 detachably mounted on the panel 101, and a locking mechanism 3 provided on the panel 101 for fixing the protective shell 2. The protective shell 2 protects the panel 101 from impact damage, and the locking mechanism 3 locks the protective shell 2, ensuring its stability when closed. After the water heater is installed, the protective shell 2 can be recycled by the installer and returned to the factory for reuse.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, sliding grooves 4 are provided on both sides of the panel 101. Sliding blocks 5 are slidably installed within the sliding grooves 4, and positioning rods 6 are fixedly installed within the sliding grooves 4. The positioning rods 6 pass through the corresponding sliding blocks 5 and are slidably connected to them. Two bolts 7 are symmetrically arranged on the protective shell 2, and the bolts 7 are threadedly connected to the corresponding sliding blocks 5. The sliding blocks 5 allow the protective shell 2 to slide up and down on the panel 101, providing protection without affecting operation. The sliding grooves 4 and positioning rods 6 ensure the sliding stability of the protective shell 2. The bolts 7 connect the protective shell 2 to the sliding blocks 5, facilitating installation and disassembly of the protective shell 2 and improving its usability.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, a first magnet 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sliding block 5, and a second magnet 9 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom of the sliding groove 4. The magnetic poles of the second magnet 9 are opposite to those of the first magnet 8. This can buffer the protective shell 2 when it falls after the locking mechanism 3 is opened, reducing the impact on the panel 101 caused by the protective shell 2 falling.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the protective shell 2 has two symmetrically arranged slots 10, and the panel 101 has a cavity 11. Sliding holes 12 are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the cavity 11. The locking mechanism 3 includes two locking blocks 301, which are slidably installed in the two sliding holes 12 respectively, and are slidably connected to the inner walls of the corresponding slots 10. Through the cooperation of the locking blocks 301 and the slots 10, the protective shell 2 can be locked after being closed, ensuring the stability of the protective shell 2 after it is closed. At the same time, it facilitates opening the protective shell 2 and is beneficial for operating the panel 101.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the ends of the two locking blocks 301 that are close to each other extend into the cavity 11 and are each fixedly mounted with a first wedge block 302. Two second wedge blocks 303 are symmetrically slidably mounted within the cavity 11, and the second wedge blocks 303 are adapted to the first wedge blocks 302. Through the cooperation of the first wedge blocks 302 and the second wedge blocks 303, the two locking blocks 301 can move towards each other and exit the slot 10, facilitating the opening of the protective shell 2.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, each of the two second wedge blocks 303 is fixedly mounted with a sliding rod 304. The top ends of both sliding rods 304 extend outside the cavity 11 and are fixedly mounted with the same crossbar 305. A first spring 306 is slidably sleeved on the sliding rod 304. One end of the first spring 306 is fixedly connected to the panel 101, and the other end of the first spring 306 is fixedly connected to the crossbar 305. When the crossbar 305 is pressed, the crossbar 305 drives the two second wedge blocks 303 to move downward synchronously. At the same time, the two first springs 306 are in a compressed and stored state. When the crossbar 305 is released, the two second wedge blocks 303 return to their original position under the action of the two first springs 306.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, a groove 13 is formed on the top inner wall of the sliding hole 12. A limiting block 307 is fixedly installed on the top of the locking block 301. The limiting block 307 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding groove 13. A stabilizing rod 308 is fixedly installed in the groove 13. The stabilizing rod 308 passes through the limiting block 307 and is slidably connected to the limiting block 307. A second spring 309 is slidably sleeved on the stabilizing rod 308. One end of the second spring 309 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the corresponding groove 13, and the other end of the second spring 309 is fixedly connected to the corresponding limiting block 307. Through the limiting block 307 and the second spring 309, the two locking blocks 301 can move in a direction away from each other and enter the slot 10 and be stabilized in the slot 10, thus completing the locking of the protective shell 2.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the locking block 301 has a first inclined surface, and the top of the protective shell 2 has two symmetrically arranged second inclined surfaces, which are adapted to the first inclined surface. Through the cooperation of the second and first inclined surfaces, when closing the protective shell 2, the two locking blocks 301 can move towards each other without pressing the crossbar 305, causing the second spring 309 to enter a compressed and stored state. When the two slots 10 correspond to the two locking blocks 301, they enter the two slots 10 under the elastic force of the second spring 309, completing the locking of the protective shell 2, making it more convenient to use.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
