Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heater technology, specifically to a support structure for heaters. Background Technology

[0002] A heater is an electrical appliance that uses electrical energy to convert into heat and provides warmth to the environment or human body through contact conduction, radiation, convection, etc. To facilitate the support or placement of the heater, it is usually equipped with a support structure for user convenience.

[0003] In existing technologies, to reduce the overall packaging size of products, the support legs are usually arranged on the heater body in a detachable manner, which facilitates the removal and installation of the support legs, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the overall packaging size of the product.

[0004] The above technical solutions have achieved the effect of reducing the overall packaging size of the product to a certain extent. However, in some technical solutions, due to factors such as design structure, implementation method and processing technology, especially in the plastic demolding process of the heater body, the structural details of the support leg connection are relatively difficult to handle; and when the structure of the support leg connection is damaged, there are problems such as not being easy to disassemble and not being easy to replace. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a support structure for a heater to at least solve some of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0010] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above technical solution, in different usage scenarios, based on the different number of support legs of different heater models, such as three support legs or four support legs, by setting limiting grooves in some slots and setting limiting parts on the corresponding adapters, not only can the corresponding adapters be further limited and their connection stability improved, but also the interchangeability of adapters arranged on the left, right or front and back sides can be avoided, and the quick identification, positioning and installation of adapters can be facilitated.

[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, the connector is provided with mortises, which are arranged in the area of ​​the corresponding slot; one end of the adapter is provided with a tenon, which is mortised and tenoned with the corresponding mortise.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The above technical solution facilitates the assembly of the adapter and the connector, and the fit between the tenon and the mortise makes the connection between the two more secure and stable.

[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, the tenon is provided with an internal threaded hole, and the connector is provided with a hole position that communicates with the corresponding mortise hole.

[0014] Beneficial effects: It facilitates the further fixation of the adapter to the connector using appropriate screws, further improving the connection stability between the structures.

[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, one end of the adapter has an inclined end face that is adapted to a corresponding slot.

[0016] Beneficial effects: It facilitates tilt support for the heater in practical use, which helps improve the stability of the support and prevents the heater from tipping over.

[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, the other end of the adapter has an internal thread section, and the support leg has an external thread section, the external thread section being adapted to the internal thread section.

[0018] Beneficial effects: It facilitates the disassembly, installation, maintenance, and replacement of the support legs, and also reduces the overall packaging size of the product; at the same time, the support legs of different lengths can be replaced according to the needs of different users to achieve the overall height adjustment of the heater.

[0019] Preferably, as an improvement, the cross-section of the mortise is rectangular.

[0020] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above solution, unnecessary relative rotation between the adapter and the connector can be avoided.

[0021] Preferably, as an improvement, the connector is provided with a threaded post and a mounting base.

[0022] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above solution and arranging threaded posts and mounting bases, it is easy to use suitable screws to fit and install the connectors onto the heater body, thus ensuring the normal use of the heater. Attached Figure Description

[0038] Example 1

[0039] This embodiment is basically as shown in the appendix. Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 10 As shown:

[0040] A support structure for a heater includes a connector 100, which is used to be adapted to be installed on the heater body in actual use.

[0041] To facilitate support for the heater, in this embodiment, the connector 100 is provided with at least one slot 101, and each slot 101 can be detachably connected to an adapter 200, and each adapter 200 can be detachably connected to a support leg 300.

[0042] Specifically, the connector 100 is provided with a mortise hole 102, which is arranged in the area of ​​the corresponding slot 101; one end of the adapter 200 is provided with a tenon 210, which is mortised and tenoned with the corresponding mortise hole 102. That is, the mortise hole 102 is arranged concave relative to the connector 100, and the tenon 210 is arranged convex relative to the adapter 200. Through the cooperation of the tenon 210 and the mortise hole 102, it is easy to realize the assembly between the adapter 200 and the connector 100, and the connection between the two is more firm and stable.

[0043] Furthermore, the tenon 210 is provided with an internal threaded hole 211, and the connector 100 is provided with a hole 103, which is connected to the corresponding mortise hole 102. During assembly, the appropriate screws are passed through the hole 103 and the internal threaded hole 211 in sequence and the screws are tightened, thereby fixing the adapter 200 to the connector 100, further improving the connection stability between their structures.

[0044] To facilitate tilting support for the heater in practical use and to improve the stability of the support, thus preventing the heater from tipping over, in this embodiment, one end of the adapter 200 has an inclined end face 201, which is adapted to and abuts against the corresponding slot 101.

[0045] Furthermore, the other end of the adapter 200 has an internal thread section 220, and the support leg 300 has an external thread section 310, which is compatible with the internal thread section 220. In use, the support legs 300 of different lengths can be replaced according to the needs of different users to achieve an adjustment of the overall height of the heater; at the same time, it also facilitates the disassembly, installation, maintenance and replacement of the support legs 300, and facilitates the reduction of the overall packaging size of the product.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the mortise 102 is rectangular, which can avoid unnecessary relative rotation between the adapter 200 and the connector 100.

[0047] The connector 100 is provided with a threaded post 110 and a mounting base 120. The connector 100 is fitted and installed on the heater body using a matching screw to ensure the normal use of the heater and to facilitate the disassembly and replacement of the connector 100.

[0048] When the number of slots 101 is greater than or equal to two, a limiting groove 104 is provided at the edge of some of the slots 101, and the corresponding adapter 200 has a limiting part 230 that is adapted to the limiting groove 104.

[0049] In different usage scenarios, the number of support legs 300 varies depending on the model of the heater, such as three support legs 300 or four support legs 300. By setting limiting grooves 104 at some slots 101 and setting limiting parts 230 on the corresponding adapters 200, not only can the corresponding adapters 200 be further limited, improving the stability of their connection, but also the interchangeability of adapters 200 arranged on the left and right or front and back sides can be avoided, making it easier to quickly identify, position and install the adapters 200.

[0050] In this embodiment, the number of legs 300 is described as four. For details, see attached figure. Figure 1-2 As shown, there are four support legs 300 and four slots 101. The two slots 101 on the left end form one group, and the two slots 101 on the right end form another group. Each group of slots 101 contains a limiting slot 104, and the two limiting slots 104 are located on the front support leg 300 or the rear support leg 300, respectively. This makes the support legs 300 in the same group non-interchangeable, which helps to quickly identify and position them for installation.

[0051] Example 2

[0052] This embodiment is basically as shown in the appendix. Figure 11-12 As shown:

[0053] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the arrangement and number of the legs 300 are different.

[0054] Specifically, there are three support legs 300 and three slots 101. Two support legs 300 are tilted to the same side simultaneously. The remaining support leg 300 is tilted to the opposite side. That is, the adapter 200 corresponding to the support leg 300 has a limiting part 230, and the slot 101 corresponding to the adapter 200 has a limiting groove 104.

[0055] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solution of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent.
