Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the outer shell structure of a coffee machine. Background Technology

[0002] Coffee has become a daily beverage for young people in my country. With the continuous promotion of coffee culture, various coffee machines have appeared on the market to cater to public demand. These machines meet most coffee brewing needs and are therefore very popular. Currently, coffee machines on the market typically consist of an inner frame and multiple side panels. Each side panel is fixed to the inner frame with screws, resulting in poor tightness between the side panels and requiring a large number of screws for installation.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve existing coffee machines. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems. We provide a housing structure for a coffee machine that can reduce the number of screws used and improve the tightness between the side panels.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a coffee machine casing structure, which includes an inner frame, a front panel, a left panel, a right panel, a top panel, and a back panel. The left panel, right panel, and top panel are all fastened and fixed to the inner frame. The front ends of the left panel, right panel, and top panel are provided with protruding steps. The front panel is fixed to the inner frame by a first screw and presses against the steps. The back panel is fixed to the inner frame by a second screw and presses against the rear ends of the left panel, right panel, and top panel.

[0006] In one or more embodiments, the left plate, right plate and top plate are provided with a first hook, and the inner frame is provided with a first fastening position that cooperates with the first hook.

[0007] In one or more embodiments, the front side of the top plate is provided with a second hook arranged forward, and the front plate is provided with a second fastening position that engages with the second hook.

[0008] In one or more embodiments, the rear ends of the left and right plates are fixed to the inner frame by a third screw, and the rear ends of the left and right plates are provided with first mounting holes for the third screw to be connected. The inner frame is provided with first screw holes for the third screw to be connected.

[0009] In one or more embodiments, the back plate is connected and fixed to the inner frame and the top plate by a fourth screw. The back plate has a second mounting hole for the fourth screw to be connected, and the inner frame and the top plate are provided with second screw holes for the fourth screw to be connected.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: the shell structure can improve the tightness of the connection between the plates, improve the stability of the overall shell structure, and also save the number of screws used, which is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the shell and saving screw costs.

[0012] Figure 2 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure from another angle. Detailed Implementation

[0013] To enhance understanding of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. These embodiments are only used to explain the present utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0014] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 1-2 This utility model provides a casing structure for a coffee machine, comprising an inner frame 1, a front panel 2, a left panel 3, a right panel 4, a top panel 5, and a back panel 6. The left panel 3, right panel 4, and top panel 5 are all fastened to the inner frame 1. Specifically, the left panel 3, right panel 4, and top panel 5 are provided with first hooks 8, and the inner frame 1 is provided with first fastening positions 9 that engage with the first hooks 8. Using a fastening method to install the left, right, and top panels reduces the number of screws used and improves assembly efficiency. The front ends of the left panel 3, right panel 4, and top panel 5 are all provided with protruding steps 7. The front panel 2 is fixed to the inner frame 1 by first screws and presses against the steps 7. The pressing action of the front panel improves the tightness of the assembly of the front, left, top, and right panels. The back panel 6 is fixed to the inner frame 1 by second screws and presses against the rear ends of the left, right, and top panels 5, similarly improving the tightness of the fit between the back panel, top panel, left panel, and right panel.

[0015] The top plate 5 is provided with a forward-arranged second hook 10 on its front side, and the front plate 2 is provided with a second fastening position 11 that engages with the second hook 10. The engagement of the second hook and the second fastening position can improve the tightness of the fit between the front plate and the top plate, and can also pre-install the front plate so that the front plate and the inner frame can be connected by the first screw in the future.

[0016] The rear ends of the left plate 3 and the right plate 4 are fixed to the inner frame 1 by the third screw. The rear ends of the left plate 3 and the right plate 4 are provided with first mounting holes 12 for the third screw to be connected. The inner frame 1 is provided with first screw holes 13 for the third screw to be connected. The structural stability of the left plate and the right plate after installation can be improved by fixing with the third screw. Since the left plate and the right plate are fixed to the inner frame by snap-fit, only a small number of third screws are needed for fixing.

[0017] The back plate 6 is connected and fixed to the inner frame 1 and the top plate 5 by the fourth screw. The back plate 6 has a second mounting hole 14 for the fourth screw to be connected. The inner frame 1 and the top plate 5 are provided with second screw holes 15 for the fourth screw to be connected. The structural stability of the back plate after installation can be improved by fixing it with the fourth screw.

[0018] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art based on the content disclosed in the present utility model should be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
