Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, and more particularly to a mounting plate for a water dispenser and a water dispenser including the mounting plate. Background Technology
[0002] Solenoid valves are a common component in water purification products, used to control the on / off (or reversal) of water flow. In related technologies, solenoid valves are typically fixed to a mounting plate or water manifold plate with screws, requiring the rotation of multiple screws for installation and removal, which is inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to provide a mounting plate with a limiting groove and a limiting structure, into which the valve body can be inserted. The valve body is limited in two directions by the first limiting part and the second limiting part, preventing the valve body from coming out, improving the stability after assembly, and simplifying the assembly process.
[0004] Another objective of this invention is to provide a drinking water device, including the aforementioned mounting plate.
[0005] The mounting plate of the drinking water device according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a plate body, a first limiting part and a second limiting part. The plate body has a limiting groove extending along a first direction. The first limiting part is connected to the plate body, and the inner bottom surfaces of the first limiting part and the limiting groove are spaced apart along a second direction. The second limiting part and the limiting groove are correspondingly distributed along the first direction to restrict the valve body that slides into and is positioned in the limiting groove along the first direction from coming out. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
[0006] Specifically, the valve body can be installed within a limiting groove constructed in the main body of the plate. After installation, the first limiting parts are spaced apart along a second direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the limiting groove. This allows the valve body installed in the limiting groove to be limited along the second direction. The spaced distribution of the first limiting parts enhances their limiting effect on the valve body in the second direction, preventing the valve body from detaching from the limiting groove along the second direction and improving the structural stability after installation.
[0007] Furthermore, the second limiting part and the limiting groove are distributed correspondingly along the first direction. Thus, after the valve body slides into the limiting groove from the first direction, the second limiting part can position the valve body along the first direction, thereby preventing the valve body from coming out of the limiting groove along the first direction. Therefore, the limiting groove provides assembly space for the valve body. After the valve body slides into the limiting groove along the first direction, the first limiting part can limit the valve body from the second direction, and the second limiting part can limit the valve body along the first direction. This allows the valve body to be limited by the limiting structure without the need for fasteners, facilitating valve body assembly. Furthermore, the assembled valve body is structurally stable and will not come out of the limiting groove.
[0008] According to the installation plate of the drinking water equipment in this embodiment of the utility model, the valve body can slide into the limiting groove along the first direction. After installation, the second limiting part can position the valve body along the first direction, and the first limiting part can limit the valve body along the second direction, so that the valve body is easy and quick to install, and the structure is stable after assembly.

The second limiting portion is disposed at the second end of the limiting groove and is configured to restrict the valve body from sliding out of the second end of the limiting groove.
[0011] In some examples of this utility model, the limiting groove includes a first rib and a second rib distributed at intervals along a second direction, a stop rib is connected between the first rib and the second rib, and the valve body is positioned between the stop rib and the second limiting part.
[0012] In some examples of this utility model, the first limiting part includes a first protrusion and a second protrusion, the first protrusion and the second protrusion are disposed on opposite sides of the limiting groove along the width direction, and protrude from the inner side of the limiting groove.
[0013] In some examples of this utility model, the first limiting part includes a third protrusion, which is opposite to the second limiting part along a first direction and protrudes into the inner side of the limiting groove.
[0014] In some examples of this utility model, the second limiting part includes a spring and a positioning part. The spring has a fixed end and a free end. The fixed end of the spring is connected to the plate body, and the free end of the spring is connected to the positioning part. The positioning part is movably disposed in the limiting groove.
[0015] In some examples of this utility model, the second limiting part further includes a reinforcing rib, which protrudes from the outside of the limiting groove and extends along the spring piece.
[0016] In some examples of this utility model, the reinforcing rib protrudes from the side of the spring piece away from the positioning part and extends along the first direction.
[0017] In some examples of this invention, the reinforcing ribs gradually decrease in height from the fixed end to the free end of the spring sheet.
[0018] The drinking water device according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a solenoid valve and a mounting plate. The solenoid valve includes a valve body. The mounting plate is the aforementioned mounting plate. The valve body slides into the limiting groove along the first direction. The first limiting part restricts the valve body along the second direction. The second limiting part positions the valve body along the first direction.

[0029] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.
[0030] Combination Figures 1 to 3 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the mounting plate 100 of the drinking water device 1000 includes: a plate body 10, a first limiting part 11 and a second limiting part 12. The plate body 10 has a limiting groove 101 extending along a first direction. The first limiting part 11 is connected to the plate body 10. The inner bottom surfaces of the first limiting part 11 and the limiting groove 101 are spaced apart along a second direction. The second limiting part 12 is correspondingly distributed with the limiting groove 101 along the first direction to restrict the valve body 21 from sliding into and being positioned in the limiting groove 101 along the first direction and coming out. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
[0031] Specifically, the valve body 21 can be installed within the limiting groove 101 constructed in the main body 10. After the valve body 21 is installed, the first limiting parts 11 are spaced apart along a second direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the limiting groove 101. Thus, the valve body 21 installed in the limiting groove 101 can be limited along the second direction. The spaced distribution of the first limiting parts 11 can improve the limiting effect of the first limiting parts 11 on the valve body 21 in the second direction, prevent the valve body 21 from coming out of the limiting groove 101 along the second direction, and improve the structural stability after installation.
[0032] Furthermore, the second limiting part 12 and the limiting groove 101 are distributed correspondingly along the first direction. Thus, after the valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101 from the first direction, the second limiting part 12 can position the valve body 21 along the first direction, thereby preventing the valve body 21 from coming out of the limiting groove 101 along the first direction. Therefore, the limiting groove 101 can provide assembly space for the valve body 21. After the valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101 along the first direction, the first limiting part 11 can limit the valve body 21 from the second direction, and the second limiting part 12 can limit the valve body 21 along the first direction. This allows the valve body 21 to be limited by the limiting structure without the need for fasteners, facilitating assembly of the valve body 21. Furthermore, the assembled valve body 21 is structurally stable and will not come out of the limiting groove 101.
[0033] According to the mounting plate 100 of the drinking water equipment 1000 of this utility model embodiment, the valve body 21 can slide into the limiting groove 101 along the first direction. After installation, the second limiting part 12 can position the valve body 21 along the first direction, and the first limiting part 11 can limit the valve body 21 along the second direction, so that the valve body 21 is easy and quick to install, and the structure is stable after assembly.
[0034] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of this utility model, the limiting groove 101 has a first end and a second end opposite to each other along a first direction. The first end of the limiting groove 101 is configured to be suitable for the valve body 21 to slide into the limiting groove 101 to realize the assembly of the valve body 21. The second limiting part 12 is provided at the second end of the limiting groove 101. The second limiting part 12 is configured to restrict the valve body 21 from sliding out of the second end of the limiting groove 101, which can realize the positioning and limiting effect of the valve body 21. The valve body 21 can be locked in the limiting groove 101 to prevent the valve body 21 from sliding out after sliding into the limiting groove 101. Specifically, the valve body 21 can be installed into the limiting groove 101 along the first direction. On opposite sides of the valve body 21 along the first direction, one side of the valve body 21 cooperates with the first end of the limiting groove 101. After the valve body 21 is completely slid into the limiting groove 101, the second limiting part 12 located at the second end of the limiting groove 101 can cooperate with the other side of the valve body 21 and the second limiting part 12 to realize the assembly and positioning of the valve body 21.
[0035] Furthermore, combined Figure 3In some embodiments of this utility model, the limiting groove 101 includes a first rib 110 and a second rib 120 spaced apart along a second direction, with a stop rib 130 connecting the first rib 110 and the second rib 120. The valve body 21 is positioned between the stop rib 130 and the second limiting part 12. Specifically, the stop rib 130 and the second limiting part 12 can position the opposite ends of the valve body 21 in the first direction, preventing the valve body 21 from sliding along the first direction after assembly. The first rib 110 and the second rib 120 spaced apart along the width direction of the limiting groove 101 can position the valve body 21 upward along a third direction perpendicular to the first direction, surrounding the assembled valve body 21 and providing support for it, thereby improving the structural stability after assembly. The third direction is perpendicular to the second direction.
[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, the plate body 10 is provided with guide ribs 140, which protrude from the plate body 10 along a second direction and surround a limiting groove 101 with an opening on one side. The guide ribs 140 can close the first end of the limiting groove 101 and open the second end of the limiting groove 101, thereby facilitating the valve body 21 to slide into the limiting groove 101. After the valve body 21 enters the limiting groove 101, the guide ribs 140 can surround the valve body 21 circumferentially, improving the tightness of the fit. The first rib 110, the second rib 120, and the stop rib 130 are sleeved on the guide ribs 140, improving the stability of the assembly and also improving the structural strength of the first rib 110, the second rib 120, and the stop rib 130, thereby improving the structural stability of the valve body 21 after assembly.
[0037] Among them, the guide rib 140, the first rib 110 and the rib can play a guiding role along the first direction, which can facilitate the assembly of the valve body 21.
[0038] Furthermore, combining Figure 2 In some embodiments of this utility model, the first limiting part 11 includes a first protrusion 111 and a second protrusion 112. The first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 112 are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the limiting groove 101 along the width direction and protrude from the inner side of the limiting groove 101. Thus, on opposite sides of the limiting groove 101 along the width direction, the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 112 protruding into the limiting groove 101 can restrict the valve body 21 from dislodging from the limiting groove 101 along the second direction, thereby limiting the valve body 21 along the second direction. Through the cooperation of the first protrusion 111, the second protrusion 112, and the second limiting part 12, the valve body 21 can be positioned in the limiting groove 101 in the first direction and the second direction, realizing the assembly of the valve body 21 and maintaining a stable state after assembly.
[0039] Combination Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments of this utility model, the first limiting part 11 includes a third protrusion 113, which is opposite to the second limiting part 12 along a first direction and protrudes into the inner side of the limiting groove 101. That is, the third protrusion 113 can also limit the valve body 21 along a second direction. The third protrusion 113 is positioned differently from the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 112, allowing the valve body 21 to be limited from multiple directions or positions. This increases the contact area between the mounting plate 100 and the valve body 21, improving the structural strength and stability after assembly.
[0040] For example, the valve body 21 may be provided with a mounting portion, which can be inserted between the limiting groove 101 and the third protrusion 113 in a first direction, so that the third protrusion 113 can cover the mounting portion in a second direction to prevent the mounting portion or the valve body 21 from dislodging in the second direction. Similarly, the mounting portion can also be inserted between the limiting groove 101 and the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 112 in the first direction to restrict the valve body 21 in the second direction. By arranging the first protrusion 111, the second protrusion 112 and the third protrusion 113, not only can the valve body 21 be limited in the second direction, but the limiting effect can also be improved, thereby improving the stability of the valve body 21 after assembly.
[0041] It can also be a combination Figure 5 In the first direction, the valve body 21 has a mating groove 201. When the valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101 in the first direction, the third protrusion 113 arranged in the first direction is opposite to the mating groove 201 in the first direction. After the valve body 21 slides into the first end of the limiting groove 101, the third protrusion 113 extends into the mating groove 201, which can improve the tightness of the fit between the valve body 21 and the mounting plate 100, thereby improving the structural stability after assembly.
[0042] It should be noted that, generally, the solenoid valve 200 installed on the water drinking equipment 1000 is a general-purpose component. The solenoid valve 200 generally includes a valve body 21 (or valve seat) and a valve core, with the valve core mounted on the valve body 21. The valve body 21 is generally injection-molded. To facilitate the manufacturing of the valve body 21, one end of the valve body 21 is provided with a hollow structure. Utilizing this structure of the valve body 21, a third protrusion 113 suitable for cooperating with the hollow structure is provided on the mounting plate 100. This improves the stability of the assembly and simplifies the structure. During assembly, simply sliding the valve body 21 into the limiting groove 101 is sufficient to achieve the cooperation between the third protrusion 113 and the valve body 21, thus improving the ease of assembly.
[0043] Combination Figure 3 In some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom wall of the limiting groove 101 may be provided with multiple hollow structures. The hollow structures help to reduce the weight of the mounting plate 100 and also facilitate processing and manufacturing. Specifically, the hollow structures may be arranged opposite to the first limiting part 11 along the second direction.
[0044] Optionally, the first direction can be the front-back direction, the second direction can be the up-down direction, and the third direction can be the left-right direction. Alternatively, the first direction can be the length direction of the limiting groove 101, the second direction can be the height direction of the limiting groove 101, and the third direction can be the width direction of the limiting groove 101. It is also possible that the first direction can be the horizontal direction and the second direction can be the vertical direction.
[0045] Combination Figure 3 In some embodiments of this utility model, the second limiting part 12 includes a spring piece 121 and a positioning part 122. The spring piece 121 has a fixed end and a free end. The fixed end of the spring piece 121 is connected to the plate body 10, and the free end of the spring piece 121 is connected to the positioning part 122. The positioning part 122 is movably disposed in the limiting groove 101. Specifically, the spring piece 121 can provide elastic force for the second limiting part 12 to move, so that the positioning part 122 can switch between the state of limiting the valve body 21 and the state of releasing the valve body 21, thereby realizing the assembly and disassembly of the valve body 21. More specifically, the fixed end of the spring piece 121 is connected to the plate body 10, which can improve the structural stability of the second limiting part 12. The free end of the spring piece 121 is connected to the positioning part 122, so that the positioning part 122 can move relative to the fixed end, thereby changing the limiting state of the valve body 21. The positioning part 122 can move in the second direction. When the positioning part 122 protrudes into the limiting groove 101, it can limit the valve body 21 in the first direction.
[0046] In practical applications, during the process of the valve body 21 sliding into the limiting groove 101, the bottom of the valve body 21 presses against the positioning part 122, and the spring piece 121 is in a compressed state. When the valve body 21 slides into the predetermined position, or when the valve body 21 reaches the first end of the limiting groove 101, the valve body 21 leaves the positioning part 122 and loses the pressure against the positioning part 122. At this time, the restoring force of the spring piece 121 can drive the positioning part 122 to protrude into the limiting groove 101, which can limit the valve body 21 in the first direction and prevent the valve body 21 from coming out in the first direction.
[0047] Furthermore, the positioning part 122 has a positioning surface on the side facing the valve body 21 along the first direction, which is suitable for cooperating with the valve body 21. This positioning surface can increase the contact area between the positioning part 122 and the valve body 21, achieving surface-to-surface contact and improving positioning stability. The side of the positioning part 122 facing the limiting groove 101 along the second direction has an inclined surface that gradually slopes upward from the second end to the first end. When the valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101 along the first direction, the contact area between the bottom of the valve body 21 and the positioning part 122 is smaller, which helps to reduce the resistance when the valve body 21 slides in, facilitating assembly. The inclined surface of the positioning part 122 gradually slopes upward along the assembly direction, which can also serve as a guide during valve body 21 assembly.
[0048] Furthermore, a portion of the second limiting part 12 extends into the limiting groove 101. Thus, after the valve body 21 is assembled, a portion of the second limiting part 12 protrudes. When it is necessary to disassemble the valve body 21, the protruding second limiting part 12 can be pressed down to change the assembly of the second limiting part 12, allowing the second limiting part 12 to release the valve body 21. For example, a portion of the positioning part 122 protrudes from the limiting groove 101. When disassembling the valve body 21, the positioning part 122 can be pressed to disengage it from the valve body 21, and the valve body 21 can be dislodged from the limiting groove 101 along the first direction.
[0049] According to a specific embodiment of the mounting plate of this utility model, the bottom wall of the limiting groove 101 is provided with a notch, the second limiting part 12 is provided in the notch, and the fixed end of the spring piece 121 is connected to the bottom wall of the limiting groove 101. The positioning part 122 is connected to the free end of the spring piece 121, and the spring piece 121 is movably provided in the notch in the second direction or the vertical direction. In the natural state, the positioning part 122 protrudes into the limiting groove 101, that is, the state of the positioning part 122 after the valve body 21 is assembled. During the assembly of the valve body 21, when the valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101, it presses down on the positioning part 122. After the valve body 21 is installed in place, the pressure disappears, and the positioning part 122 is reset under the drive of the spring piece 121, protruding into the limiting groove 101 and resisting the valve body 21 in the horizontal direction.
[0050] Optionally, the positioning part 122 can be configured as a hook, which can achieve the positioning effect and has a simple and easy structure to construct.
[0051] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments of this utility model, the second limiting part 12 further includes a reinforcing rib 123. The reinforcing rib 123 protrudes from the outside of the limiting groove 101 and extends along the spring piece 121. On the one hand, it can improve the structural stability of the spring piece 121. On the other hand, when the spring piece 121 is compressed, the reinforcing rib 123 can improve the restoring force of the spring piece 121, thereby enhancing the elasticity of the spring piece 121.
[0052] In some embodiments of this utility model, the reinforcing rib 123 protrudes from the side of the spring piece 121 opposite to the positioning part 122 and extends along the first direction, which can improve the elasticity and structural stability of the spring piece 121. Specifically, the reinforcing rib 123 can be provided on the back of the spring piece 121, or a portion of the reinforcing rib 123 can be provided on the plate body 10 and a portion can be provided on the back of the spring piece 121, so as to maintain a balance between increasing the elasticity of the spring piece 121 and strengthening the structural strength of the spring piece 121.
[0053] In some embodiments of this invention, the reinforcing rib 123 has a gradually decreasing height in the direction from the fixed end to the free end of the spring piece 121. Specifically, the side with a larger height of the reinforcing rib 123 is located near the fixed end, which can improve the effect of enhancing structural stability, while the side with a gradually decreasing height of the reinforcing rib 123 near the free end can improve the elasticity of the free end of the spring piece 121, thereby improving the structural stability and durability of the second limiting part 12.
[0054] The drinking water device 1000 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes: a solenoid valve 200 and a mounting plate 100. The solenoid valve 200 includes a valve body 21. The mounting plate 100 is the aforementioned mounting plate 100. The valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101 along a first direction. The first limiting part 11 restricts the valve body 21 along a second direction. The second limiting part 12 positions the valve body 21 along the first direction.
[0055] Combination Figures 1 to 5 According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the water drinking device 1000 can improve the convenience and stability of assembling the solenoid valve 200 by providing the aforementioned mounting plate 100 on the water drinking device 1000.
[0056] In some embodiments of this utility model, combined with Figure 1 The limiting groove 101, the first limiting part 11, and the second limiting part 12 can be configured as a clamping structure or assembly structure for assembling the solenoid valve 200. The mounting plate 100 can be provided with multiple limiting grooves 101, and first limiting parts 11 and second limiting parts 12 that cooperate with the limiting grooves 101. Multiple limiting grooves 101 can be used to assemble multiple solenoid valves 200, thereby realizing the control of different water circuits. In other words, the mounting plate 100 of the drinking water equipment 1000 can be provided with multiple clamping structures for assembling the solenoid valves 200.
[0057] Specifically, the mounting plate 100 includes a first plate surface and a second plate surface arranged opposite to each other. Multiple mounting structures for assembling solenoid valves 200 can be located on the first plate surface and the second plate surface respectively, so that different solenoid valves 200 or different components can be arranged parallel or perpendicular to the mounting plate 100 or along the first or second direction, which can improve the space utilization of the entire mounting plate 100.
[0058] For example,
[0059] The valve body 21 has a first mounting portion 211 and a second mounting portion 212 along the width direction of the limiting groove 101. During assembly, the first mounting portion 211 abuts against the first protrusion 111 along the second direction, and the second mounting portion 212 abuts against the second protrusion 112 along the second direction, thereby limiting the valve body 21 by the first limiting portion 11. For example, the first mounting portion 211 extends into the space between the first limiting groove 101 and the first protrusion 111 along the first direction, and the second mounting portion 212 extends into the space between the limiting groove 101 and the second protrusion 112 along the first direction.
[0060] In some embodiments of this utility model, the valve body 21 is provided with a mating groove 201, and the first limiting part 11 is provided with a third protrusion 113. The third protrusion 113 is opposite to the mating groove 201 along a first direction and extends into the mating groove 201 when the valve body 21 slides into the limiting groove 101. Thus, the third protrusion 113 can position the valve body 21 along the first direction, and the third protrusion 113 extending into the valve body 21 can also position the valve body 21 along a second direction. When the width of the mating groove 201 is approximately the same as the width of the third protrusion 113, the third protrusion 113 can also restrict the valve body 21 along the width direction of the limiting groove 101 or a third direction, thereby improving the structural stability after assembly.
[0061] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes a specific embodiment of the water drinking device 1000, including the mounting plate 100 and the water drinking device 1000.
[0062] Combination Figures 1 to 6 According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the water drinking device 1000 includes a mounting plate 100 and a solenoid valve 200. The mounting plate 100 is constructed with a snap-fit structure for assembling the solenoid valve 200, including guide ribs 140 on both sides for limiting and guiding, a first rib 110 and a second rib 120, a first limiting part 11 that restricts the valve body 21 in a second direction, and a second limiting part 12 that positions the valve body 21 in a first direction.
[0063] The first limiting part 11 includes a first protrusion 111 and a second protrusion 112 located on both sides of the limiting groove 101 and pressing on the mounting part of the valve body 21. After the solenoid valve 200 is installed in place, the first protrusion 111 and the second protrusion 112 press against the valve body 21 of the solenoid valve 200, thereby limiting it in the vertical direction.
[0064] The first limiting part 11 also includes a insert plate (i.e., the third protrusion 113) extending along the first direction and protruding into the limiting groove 101. After the solenoid valve 200 is installed in place, the third protrusion 113 or the insert plate can extend into or insert into the mating groove 201 of the valve body 21, thereby providing enhanced positioning in the vertical and horizontal directions. The second limiting part 12 includes a spring piece 121 and a positioning part 122. The solenoid valve 200 is installed on the positioning part 122 and stops against the valve body 21 along the first direction. The back of the positioning part 122 includes, but is not limited to, a reinforcing rib 123 to increase the elasticity of the spring piece 121.
[0065] Combination Figure 1 During assembly, first place the solenoid valve 200 on one side of the positioning part 122, then slide the solenoid valve 200 in the direction of the arrow within the limiting groove 101 until the positioning part 122 is pressed down and then pops up again, indicating that it is in place. Conversely, to remove the solenoid valve 200, press down the positioning part 122 and slide the solenoid valve 200 in the opposite direction of the arrow.
