Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water purifiers, and in particular to a rotating base structure for a water purifier. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese patent document CN109485111B discloses a technical solution entitled "A Rotatable Water Purifier," which includes the following technical features: a body, a base, a rotating assembly, a connecting ring, a support ring, ball bearings, a first limiting ring, a second limiting ring, and a wrapping ring. In the rotating assembly, the connecting ring and the support ring rely on rolling friction from multiple ball bearings. While this effectively reduces friction and allows for smooth rotation of the connecting ring relative to the support ring, it also results in weak restraint on the connecting ring, leading to excessively smooth rotation of the body. During operations that exert force on the water purifier, such as operating the water purifier, removing or installing the filter cartridge, disassembling or assembling the water tank, or repairing components, the body cannot remain stably oriented and is prone to rapid rotation. This causes significant inconvenience and troubles for users and maintenance. Therefore, it is essential to design a rotating base structure for the water purifier to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned problems and shortcomings, and to provide a rotating base structure for a water purifier. This rotating base structure can not only meet the needs of rotation adjustment, but also achieve accurate and stable positioning of the casing after rotation adjustment. This ensures that the casing remains in a relatively stable state when forces are applied to it, preventing rapid rotation of the casing. This ensures that users can perform related operations very conveniently, and effectively solves the problems users encounter when using and maintaining this type of water purifier.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0005] A rotating base structure for a water purifier is characterized by including a housing and a support ring, wherein a limiting ring groove is provided on the bottom surface of the housing, and the support ring is rotatably fitted into the limiting ring groove, with the lower end of the support ring extending out of the limiting ring groove.

[0006] Preferably, a limiting protrusion is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the supporting ring, and the limiting protrusion is located in the limiting ring groove. A plurality of limiting protrusions are provided on the outer groove edge of the limiting ring groove, and each limiting protrusion is arranged around the middle of the limiting ring groove, and each limiting protrusion is located directly below the limiting protrusion.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom surface of the support ring is provided with a plurality of protruding pillars, and the protruding pillars are arranged around the middle of the support ring.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom surface of the support ring is provided with a plurality of protruding ring portions, and each protruding ring portion is arranged around the middle part of the support ring.

[0009] Preferably, the convex ring portion is arc-shaped as a whole, and the inner arc-shaped surface of the convex ring portion faces the center of the supporting ring.

[0010] Preferably, an annular groove is formed on the top surface of the support ring, and the annular groove is arranged around the inner hole of the support ring.

[0011] Preferably, an outer convex ring and an inner convex ring are respectively provided on the bottom surface of the housing, and the outer convex ring is arranged around the inner convex ring, and the limiting ring groove is formed between the outer convex ring and the inner convex ring.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The rotating base structure of this water purifier incorporates a support ring, and a limiting ring groove is provided on the bottom surface of the casing. The support ring is rotatably fitted into the limiting ring groove, and its lower end extends beyond the groove. This not only ensures accurate and stable assembly between the support ring and the casing but also meets the requirements for rotating and adjusting the casing's orientation, and guarantees sufficient friction between the support ring and the casing.

[0017] Figure 5 This is the second three-dimensional structural diagram of the support ring in this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0018] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the rotating base structure of the water purifier of this utility model includes a housing 1 and a supporting ring 2. The bottom surface of the housing 1 is provided with a limiting ring groove 11. The supporting ring 2 is rotatably embedded in the limiting ring groove 11, and the lower end of the supporting ring 2 extends out of the limiting ring groove 11.

[0019] The rotating base structure of this water purifier incorporates a support ring 2, and a limiting ring groove 11 is provided on the bottom surface of the housing 1. The support ring 2 is rotatably fitted into the limiting ring groove 11, with its lower end extending beyond the groove. This not only ensures accurate and stable assembly of the support ring 2 and the housing 1, but also meets the requirements for rotating and adjusting the orientation of the housing 1, and guarantees sufficient friction between the support ring 2 and the housing 1. This allows for accurate and stable positioning of the housing 1 after rotational adjustment. Therefore, during operations that exert force on the housing, such as operating the water purifier, removing or installing filter cartridges, disassembling or assembling the water tank, or disassembling and repairing components of the housing, the housing 1 remains in a relatively stable state, preventing rapid rotation. This ensures convenient operation for users and effectively solves the problems encountered by users in using and maintaining this type of water purifier.

[0020] In actual use, the orientation of the housing 1 does not need to be adjusted frequently. It is usually adjusted only when usage habits change or when other items are placed next to the water purifier and affect its use. After rotating and adjusting the orientation of the housing 1, it is often necessary to make the housing 1 in a relatively stable state to avoid adverse effects on operations that exert force on the housing, such as operating the water purifier, removing and installing filter cartridges, removing and installing water tanks, or disassembling and repairing the components of the housing. Therefore, the rotating base structure of this utility model is more suitable for water purifiers and can better meet the needs of actual use. It has a very strong applicability.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a limiting protrusion 21 is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the supporting ring 2, and the limiting protrusion 21 is located in the limiting ring groove 11. A plurality of limiting protrusions 12 are provided on the outer groove edge of the limiting ring groove 11, and each limiting protrusion 12 is arranged around the middle of the limiting ring groove 11, and each limiting protrusion 12 is located directly below the limiting protrusion 21. This can stably confine the supporting ring 2 in the limiting ring groove 11, preventing the supporting ring 2 from detaching from the limiting ring groove 11, thereby improving the convenience of packaging, component management, and transfer placement, and further contributing to improving the reliability and applicability of the rotating base structure.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, both the limiting ring groove 11 and the supporting ring 2 are circular, which not only helps to achieve stable support, but also meets the rotation requirements very well.

[0023] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom surface of the support ring 2 is provided with a plurality of protruding pillars 22, and the protruding pillars 22 are arranged around the middle of the support ring 2. The protruding pillars 22 not only help to improve the stability and safety of the support ring 2, but also raise the position of the housing 1, which can play a role in moisture prevention, thereby better protecting the electrical components inside the housing 1.

[0024] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom surface of the support ring 2 is provided with a plurality of protruding ring portions 23, and each protruding ring portion 23 is arranged around the middle of the support ring 2. The provision of protruding ring portions 23 not only helps to improve the stability and safety of the support ring 2, but also raises the position of the housing 1, which can play a role in moisture prevention, thereby better protecting the electrical components inside the housing 1.

[0025] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in the actual manufacturing process, both the protruding column portion 22 and the protruding ring portion 23 can be provided on the bottom surface of the support ring 2, which can achieve a more stable and reliable support effect.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the convex ring portion 23 is generally arc-shaped, with its inner arc-shaped surface 231 facing the center of the supporting ring 2. This enables the convex ring portion 23 to provide a more stable and reliable support, thereby helping to further improve the reliability and applicability of the rotating base structure.

[0027] like Figure 5 As shown, an annular groove 24 is formed on the top surface of the support ring 2, and the annular groove 24 is arranged around the inner hole of the support ring 2. This can reduce the amount of material used on the support ring 2 while ensuring that the support ring 2 has the structural strength to meet actual use, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing resource consumption.

[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, an outer convex ring 13 and an inner convex ring 14 are respectively provided on the bottom surface of the housing 1, with the outer convex ring 13 surrounding the inner convex ring 14. The limiting ring groove 11 is formed between the outer convex ring 13 and the inner convex ring 14. This not only avoids the limiting ring groove 11 weakening the structural strength of the housing 1, but also enhances the structural strength of the bottom of the housing 1 using the outer convex ring 13 and the inner convex ring 14, and ensures that the opening of the limiting ring groove 11 has high structural strength, thereby helping to further improve the structural strength of the rotating base structure, and thus helping to further improve the reliability and applicability of the rotating base structure.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, each limiting protrusion 12 is evenly arranged on the outer protruding ring 13. When installing the support ring 2, the limiting protrusion 21 presses against the limiting protrusion 12 and / or the outer protruding ring 13, so that the outer protruding ring 13 undergoes an outward expansion elastic deformation. This allows the support ring 2 and the limiting protrusion 21 to be placed in the limiting ring groove 11, and the limiting protrusion 21 to be directly above each limiting protrusion 12, thus meeting the assembly requirements.

[0030] When the water purifier with this rotating base structure is placed on a table, the protruding pillars 22 and protruding rings 23 contact the table surface to support the purifier. Since water purifiers are generally heavy, sufficient friction is generated between the supporting ring 2 and the limiting ring groove 11, keeping the purifier in a relatively stable state and preventing rapid rotation during operation. This ensures convenient operation for the user and effectively solves the problems associated with using and maintaining such water purifiers. When adjusting the orientation of the water purifier, a horizontal push on the side of the purifier will allow it to rotate horizontally on the supporting ring 2, thus satisfying the need for horizontal adjustment.
