[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments:
[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a gas water heater front panel assembly includes: a front panel assembly 1, which includes a main housing 11, the main housing 11 having an upper end and a lower end, the upper end of the main housing 11 having a first receiving groove 111, the upper end of the main housing 11 also having a plurality of pipe mounting holes 112, the lower end of the main housing 11 having a second receiving groove 113, and the second receiving groove 113 having an opening 114 facing the front end; and a display assembly 2, which includes a cover 21 detachably connected to the lower end of the main housing 11 and capable of closing the opening 114, the inner side of the cover 21 having a mounting plate 22, the mounting plate 22 having a slot 23 for the display screen to be inserted into, the mounting plate 22 having a mounting bracket 24 for mounting a power supply component on one side of the slot 23, and a locking component 3 for connection between the cover 21 and the lower end of the main housing 11.
[0027] The gas water heater housing assembly of this utility model has a separate display section. The display screen is mounted and positioned via the mounting plate 22, and a mounting bracket 24 is provided to place power components or power boards, etc. This makes disassembly and repair more convenient, as only the cover 21 needs to be removed. This facilitates the installation or removal of the display assembly 2 from the main housing 11, improving the efficiency of installation or disassembly and making subsequent maintenance of the gas water heater easier. The locking component 3 is used for quick locking, making the connection more secure.
[0028] The locking assembly 3 includes a first extension plate 31 on both sides of the cover 21 and a second extension plate 32 on both sides of the main housing 11. The edge of the first extension plate 31 is provided with a first folded edge 311, and the second extension plate 32 is provided with a second folded edge 321. The first folded edge 311 and the second folded edge 321 can be engaged and interlocked with each other.
[0029] The first fold 311 and the second fold 321 are designed to form a bending or folding structure, which facilitates snap-fitting. At the same time, due to the snap-fitting and interlocking of the two, the thickness of the first fold 311 and the second fold 321 is small, reducing the volume of the connection. This also prevents serious deformation during installation and ensures the appearance of the product.
[0030] The locking assembly 3 further includes an arc-shaped connecting portion 33 on the first folded edge 311. The arc-shaped connecting portion 33 has a first connecting hole 331. The second folded edge 321 has a first slot 322 into which the arc-shaped connecting portion 33 can engage. The main housing 11 also has a second connecting hole 34 corresponding to the first connecting hole 331. A locking element, a screw, is connected to the main housing 11 and threadedly connected to the arc-shaped connecting portion 33, passing through the first connecting hole 331. The first connecting hole 331 on the arc-shaped connecting portion 33 and the second connecting hole 34 on the main housing 11 are used for locking, facilitating installation. Furthermore, the first slot 322 facilitates installation and positioning, making connection and positioning very convenient.
[0031] The mounting plate 22 is provided with several cable grooves 221, and the mounting plate 22 is also provided with multiple positioning components 4 that can position cables, which makes it easier to organize and place cables, making it more aesthetically pleasing and easier to manage.
[0032] The positioning component 4 includes a plate 41, with two arc-shaped positioning plates 42 connected to both ends of the plate 41. The arc-shaped positioning plates 42 have a positioning groove 43 in the middle for cable to pass through. The plate 41 has holes for screws to pass through. The positioning groove 43 can position the cable, making it easier to set and guide the cable, which is more aesthetically pleasing and easier to manage.
[0033] The mounting bracket 24 includes a frame 241 connected to the mounting plate 22. The frame 241 and the slot 23 are spaced apart. The left and right spacing makes the whole structure more compact. The frame 241 has a first wire groove 242 on its lower side for easy connection with other electrical components.
[0034] The inner side of the frame 241 is also provided with a connecting plate 243, which has a connecting groove and a second wire-passing groove 244 for threading. The connecting plate 243 facilitates positioning and connection.
[0035] The lower end of the cover 21 is provided with a connecting shell 5, and the connecting shell 5 is provided with multiple through holes 51, which facilitate the cable to pass through.
[0036] The slot 23 has multiple protruding positioning blocks 231 on its wall, which facilitates locking and positioning with the display screen and makes the installation more stable.
[0037] The mounting plate 22 is also connected to a connecting block 6, which is provided with multiple positioning grooves 61 to facilitate the organization and positioning of components with a large number of cables, making the cable arrangement more aesthetically pleasing and also facilitating inspection and maintenance.
[0038] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
