Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thermostat housings, and in particular to a thermostat housing that is easy to install. Background Technology

[0002] Thermostats automatically sample and monitor ambient temperature in real time using temperature sensors. To ensure the stability of the thermostat housing, traditional connection methods use many bolts or rigid latches and locking blocks. Bolt fixing makes installation and disassembly cumbersome. The disadvantage of rigid latch and locking block connection methods is that tools are needed to pry open the housing during disassembly, which is difficult and can easily cause minor damage to the housing. There are also dangers such as damaging electronic components by inserting disassembly tools into the housing, or even injuring people due to careless use of tools during disassembly.

A limiting groove is opened on the inner side of the thermostat panel. The inner sides of the left and right ends of the upper cover plate are fixedly connected to the sliding groove. The lower cover plate is fixedly connected to the insert plate. The two sides of the insert plate are respectively inserted into the sliding groove. The lower cover plate is fixedly connected to the limiting block. The limiting block is respectively inserted into the limiting groove on the upper cover plate and the thermostat panel. The inner side of the top of the upper cover plate is fixedly connected to the positioning inner post. The upper side of the bottom of the lower cover plate is fixedly connected to the positioning outer post. The positioning inner post is inserted into the positioning outer post. The locking device is inserted into the positioning outer post and connected to the positioning inner post.

[0005] Furthermore, the locking device includes a screw plate, a post, a spring, and a trapezoidal locking block. The screw plate is fixedly connected to the post, the spring is located inside the post and one end is fixedly connected to the post, the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal locking block, the trapezoidal locking block is slidably connected to the post, and the end of the trapezoidal locking block is inserted into the positioning inner post.

[0010] Beneficial effects:

[0011] This utility model provides an easy-to-install thermostat housing with the following advantages: Through its structural design, during installation, the insert plate on the lower cover is aligned with the sliding groove on the upper cover. The lower cover is then pushed towards the upper cover. During this pushing process, the limiting block on the lower cover gradually falls into the limiting groove on the upper cover and the thermostat panel. Simultaneously, the inner positioning post is gradually inserted into the outer positioning post, limiting the movement space of the upper and lower cover plates. After the lower cover is completely installed under the upper cover, the locking device is inserted inward along the hollow part of the outer positioning post until it is completely inserted into the outer and inner positioning posts, thus aligning the upper and lower cover plates. The thermostat housing can be installed by limiting the vertical movement of the cover plate. Disassembly is simple: just rotate the locking device to unlock it and remove it, allowing the upper and lower cover plates to slide apart for internal parts inspection. Compared to existing technologies, this invention uses a limiting block and a limiting groove to lock the front-to-back movement of the upper and lower cover plates, and a locking device to lock their vertical movement, thus completing the assembly of the thermostat housing. This avoids problems caused by bolts, rigid latches, or locking blocks. The installation and disassembly methods are simple, improving user efficiency and avoiding potential dangers during disassembly. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Please see Figure 1-8This utility model provides a technical solution: a thermostat housing that is easy to install, including an upper cover plate 1, a thermostat panel 2, a limiting groove 3, a sliding groove 4, a lower cover plate 5, an insert plate 6, a limiting block 7, an inner positioning post 8, an outer positioning post 9, and a locking device 10. The upper cover plate 1 is fixedly connected to the thermostat panel 2. Limiting grooves 3 are respectively opened on the inner sides of the left and right ends of the upper cover plate 1, and limiting grooves 3 are opened on the inner side of the thermostat panel 2. The inner sides of the left and right ends of the upper cover plate 1 are respectively connected to the sliding grooves 4. The lower cover plate 5 is fixedly connected to the insert plate 6. The two sides of the insert plate 6 are respectively inserted into the sliding slot 4. The lower cover plate 5 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 7. The limiting block 7 is respectively inserted into the limiting slot 3 on the upper cover plate 1 and the thermostat panel 2. The inner side of the top of the upper cover plate 1 is fixedly connected to the positioning inner column 8. The upper side of the bottom of the lower cover plate 5 is fixedly connected to the positioning outer column 9. The positioning inner column 8 is inserted into the positioning outer column 9. The locking device 10 is inserted into the positioning outer column 9 and connected to the positioning inner column 8.

[0025] In this invention, the locking device 10 includes a screw plate 101, a post 102, a spring 103, and a trapezoidal locking block 104. The screw plate 101 is fixedly connected to the post 102. The spring 103 is located inside the post 102 and one end is fixedly connected to the post 102. The other end of the spring 103 is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal locking block 104. The trapezoidal locking block 104 is slidably connected to the post 102. The end of the trapezoidal locking block 104 is inserted into the positioning inner post 8. During disassembly, only the screw plate 101 needs to be rotated. 01. The rotation of the screw plate 101 drives the insertion post 102 to rotate. The rotation of the insertion post 102 drives the trapezoidal locking block 104 to rotate simultaneously. During the rotation of the trapezoidal locking block 104, the groove on the positioning inner post 8 pushes the inclined surface of the trapezoidal locking block 104, causing the trapezoidal locking block 104 to move into the insertion post 102 and squeeze the spring 103. When the trapezoidal locking block 104 is completely removed from the groove on the positioning inner post 8, the insertion post can be removed from the positioning outer post 9 to complete the unlocking of the locking device 10.

[0026] In this utility model, the upper cover plate 1 is provided with a water guide groove 11. The water guide groove 11 is located on the outer side of the top of the upper cover plate 1. The water guide groove 11 located on the upper cover plate 1 can prevent water accumulated on the outer shell of the thermostat due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside from seeping into the inside of the thermostat shell.

[0027] In this utility model, the upper cover plate 1 is provided with a groove 12. The groove 12 is opened on the outer side of the left and right ends of the upper cover plate 1. The groove 12 on the upper cover plate 1 can increase the friction between the installer and the upper cover plate 1, making it easier for the installer to hold the upper cover plate 1 tightly and preventing the installer's hand from slipping.

[0028] In this utility model, the limiting block 7 is trapezoidal in shape, and the limiting groove 3 has the same shape as the limiting block 7. When the trapezoidal limiting block 7 is inserted into the limiting groove 3 of the same shape, the movement space of the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 5 can be limited.

[0029] In this utility model, the height of the insert plate 6 is less than the height of the upper cover plate 1, and the height difference between the insert plate 6 and the upper cover plate 1 is used to reserve the cable outlet gap.

[0030] In this implementation scheme: During installation, the insert plate 6 on the lower cover plate 5 is aligned with the sliding groove 4 on the upper cover plate 1, and the lower cover plate 5 is pushed towards the upper cover plate 1. The groove 12 on the upper cover plate 1 increases the friction between the installer and the upper cover plate 1, making it easier for the installer to grip the upper cover plate 1 and preventing the installer from slipping. During the pushing process, the limiting block 7 on the lower cover plate 5 gradually falls into the limiting groove 3 on the upper cover plate 1 and the thermostat panel 2. At the same time, the positioning inner post 8 will gradually be inserted into the positioning outer post 9, limiting the movement space of the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 5. After the lower cover plate 5 is completely installed under the upper cover plate 1, the locking device 10 is inserted inward along the hollow part of the positioning outer post 9 until the locking device 10 is completely inserted into the positioning outer post 9 and the positioning inner post 8. When the locking device 10 is completely inserted into the positioning outer post 9 and the positioning inner post 8, the spring 103 will push the trapezoidal block 104 into the positioning inner post 8. The groove on the column 8 limits the vertical movement of the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 5, thus completing the installation of the thermostat housing. During disassembly, simply rotate the screw plate 101. The rotation of the screw plate 101 drives the insertion post 102 to rotate, and the rotation of the insertion post 102 drives the trapezoidal locking block 104 to rotate simultaneously. During the rotation of the trapezoidal locking block 104, it is pushed by the groove on the positioning inner column 8, causing the trapezoidal locking block 104 to move into the insertion post 102 and squeeze the spring 103. When the trapezoidal locking block 104 is completely removed from the groove on the positioning inner column 8, the insertion post can be removed from the positioning outer column 9 to unlock the locking device 10. After the locking device 10 is unlocked and removed, the upper cover plate 1 and the lower cover plate 5 can be slid apart vertically to inspect the internal parts. The water guide groove 11 on the upper cover plate 1 can prevent water from accumulating on the outer shell of the thermostat due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside from seeping into the inside of the thermostat housing.
