[0029] This application provides a U-shaped groove embedded structure for yogurt makers, which solves the problems of traditional installation methods used in existing yogurt makers, which require precise positioning and fixing steps, increasing installation difficulty and time costs. At the same time, when maintenance or replacement of parts is required, the disassembly process of the circuit board is cumbersome, making it inconvenient for personnel to operate during maintenance. The switches on the circuit board are generally fixed to the housing and need to be disassembled separately, further increasing the complexity of operation.

[0030] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] This utility model embodiment discloses a U-shaped groove embedded structure for a yogurt maker, according to the appendix. Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a positioning post 2, a circuit board 3, a locking unit 4, and a base 5;

[0033] Positioning post 2 is set in the U-shaped groove of the yogurt maker housing 1; the U-shaped groove design of the yogurt maker housing 1 is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also provides installation space for the circuit board 3. Positioning post 2 serves as an installation reference, ensuring that the circuit board 3 can be accurately and securely installed in the U-shaped groove.

[0034] Circuit board 3 is housed in the U-shaped groove of the yogurt maker's outer casing 1 and is engaged with positioning post 2. Circuit board 3 is equipped with heating module 31 and control switch 32. Circuit board 3 is the core component of the yogurt maker, integrating heating module 31 and control switch 32. Heating module 31 is responsible for providing the temperature required for making yogurt, while control switch 32 is used to control the on / off state of the entire circuit.

[0035] The locking unit 4 is disposed on the circuit board 3 and is used to lock the circuit board 3 and the positioning post 2;

[0036] The base 5 is mounted on the circuit board 3, and the base 5 is equipped with an adjustment bracket 51, which supports the control switch 32. The circuit board 3 supports the base 5, while the adjustment bracket 51 is used to adjust the position of the control switch 32 to adapt to the installation and operation requirements of the yogurt maker casing 1.

[0037] The positioning post 2 has a locking hole 21, and the locking unit 4 includes:

[0038] Locking seat 41 is mounted on circuit board 3;

[0039] The sliding post 42 is disposed inside the locking seat 41;

[0040] The locking rod 43 is mounted on the sliding post 42 and is movably engaged in the locking hole 21.

[0041] A spring 44 is fixedly connected between the two sets of sliding columns 42.

[0042] The locking unit 4 consists of a locking seat 41, a sliding post 42, a locking rod 43, and a spring 44. When the circuit board 3 is installed, the sliding post 42 is first pulled, causing it to compress the spring 44 and simultaneously move the locking rod 43. After the circuit board 3 and the positioning post 2 are engaged, the sliding post 42 is released. At this time, the spring 44 returns to its original position, and the sliding post 42, under the action of the spring 44, pushes the locking rod 43 into the locking hole 21 of the positioning post 2, thus achieving a stable lock on the circuit board 3.

[0043] Example 2:

[0044] This utility model embodiment discloses a U-shaped groove embedded structure for a yogurt maker, according to the appendix. Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a positioning post 2, a circuit board 3, a locking unit 4, and a base 5;

[0045] The positioning post 2 is set in the U-shaped groove of the outer shell 1 of the yogurt maker;

[0046] The circuit board 3 is set in the U-shaped groove of the yogurt maker shell 1 and is snapped into the positioning post 2. The circuit board 3 is equipped with a heating module 31 and a control switch 32.

[0047] The locking unit 4 is disposed on the circuit board 3 and is used to lock the circuit board 3 and the positioning post 2;

[0048] The base 5 is mounted on the circuit board 3, and the base 5 is provided with an adjustment bracket 51, which is used to support the control switch 32.

[0049] An adjustment unit 6 is provided between the base 5 and the adjustment frame 51. The adjustment unit 6 includes:

[0050] The lead screw 61 is threadedly connected to the base 5, and the lead screw 61 is rotatably connected to the adjusting frame 51.

[0051] The guide rod 62 is mounted on the adjusting frame 51 and slidably connected to the base 5.

[0052] The adjustment unit 6 consists of a lead screw 61 and a guide rod 62. The rotation of the lead screw 61 can drive the adjustment frame 51 to move laterally, while the guide rod 62 ensures the stability of the adjustment frame 51 during movement. When the adjustment frame 51 moves, it can drive the control switch 32 to move and adjust. A connecting wire 33 connects the heating module 31 and the control switch 32. The yogurt maker housing 1 is provided with a slot for limiting the control switch 32, so that the control switch 32 is connected to the slot of the yogurt maker housing 1.

[0053] In summary, the U-shaped groove embedded structure of this yogurt maker makes it easy to disassemble, assemble, and maintain.
