[0032] Combination Figures 1 to 2 As shown, according to a specific embodiment of this application, a temperature control box assembly is provided.

[0033] Specifically, the temperature control box assembly includes a waterproof box 1 and a temperature control box body 2. The waterproof box 1 has a clearance channel and a receiving cavity, with the clearance channel communicating with the receiving cavity. The temperature control box body 2 is disposed inside the receiving cavity, and the electrical control wire 21 on the temperature control box body 2 extends to the outside of the receiving cavity through the clearance channel. The outer surface of the electrical control wire 21 is sealed to the side wall of the clearance channel, so that the receiving cavity forms a closed space.

[0034] In the embodiments of this application, the temperature control box assembly includes a waterproof box 1 and a temperature control box body 2. The temperature control box body 2 is disposed within the receiving cavity of the waterproof box 1. The waterproof box 1 has a clearance channel communicating with the receiving cavity to ensure that the electrical control wire 21 can extend to the outside of the receiving cavity through the clearance channel. The outer surface of the electrical control wire 21 is sealed to the side wall of the clearance channel to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the waterproof box 1 through the clearance channel. In the above solution, the temperature control box body 2 is sealed within the receiving cavity of the waterproof box 1. The waterproof box 1 acts as a waterproof barrier for the temperature control box body 2, isolating it from the external environment to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the temperature control box body 2.

[0035] It should be noted that the temperature control box assembly also includes a heating element and a temperature sensor. The heating element and temperature sensor are located outside the waterproof box 1, and are electrically connected to the temperature control box body 2 via electrical control lines 21. When the temperature control box body 2 is turned on, it controls the heating element to heat the target component at a preset temperature, while simultaneously controlling the temperature sensor to detect the temperature of the target component. When the temperature of the target component reaches the preset temperature, it controls the heating element to stop heating the target component. In an exemplary embodiment of this application, the waterproof box 1 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12, which are detachably connected to the first housing 11. The second housing 12 and the first housing 11 enclose a receiving cavity. The waterproof box 1 is configured as a split structure, facilitating the assembly of the temperature control box body 2 with the waterproof box 1.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the first housing 11 has a cavity with a first end opening, and an avoidance channel is provided on the side wall of the first housing 11. The avoidance channel communicates with the cavity, and the second housing 12 acts as a sealing cover to seal the opening of the first housing 11.

[0037] Specifically, the cavity of the first housing 11 is provided with a plurality of connecting posts 111, which are spaced apart along the opening edge of the first housing 11. The top surface of each connecting post 111 is flush with the opening edge of the first housing 11, and each connecting post 111 is provided with a threaded hole. The second housing 12 is provided with a plurality of connecting holes, which are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the connecting posts 111. Bolts are passed through the connecting holes in sequence and then threadedly connected to the connecting posts 111, thereby realizing the connection between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12.

[0038] To improve the sealing performance of bolted connections and prevent leakage in high-pressure or humid environments, sealing tape is wrapped around the bolts. When wrapping the sealing tape, it should be ensured that it fits tightly against the bolt threads, forming a complete and uninterrupted annular cover. The thickness and width of the sealing tape are selected according to the bolt size and the required sealing level to ensure optimal sealing performance while avoiding excessive thickness that could lead to poor thread fit.

[0039] Furthermore, the waterproof box 1 also includes a first sealing ring, which is disposed on the first housing 11 or the second housing 12, and the first housing 11 is pressed against the second housing 12 through the first sealing ring.

[0040] Specifically, the first sealing ring is connected to the open end of the first housing 11, or the first sealing ring is connected to the end face of the second housing 12, so that the open end of the first housing 11 and the end face of the second housing 12 are sealed and abutted, so as to avoid the formation of gaps between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12, thereby preventing moisture from entering the containment cavity of the waterproof box 1 from the joint between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12.

[0041] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the outer surface of the control line 21 is sealed to the side wall of the clearance channel via a sealing structure 3. The sealing structure 3 prevents moisture from entering the receiving cavity of the waterproof box 1 at the connection between the control line 21 and the clearance channel; furthermore, the sealing structure 3 is provided separately, facilitating replacement of the sealing structure 3 according to usage.

[0042] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, the sealing structure 3 is a waterproof connector, which is connected to the avoidance channel. The outer surface of the electrical control line 21 is in contact with the inner wall of the reserved channel of the waterproof connector.

[0043] For example, the sealing structure 3 is a second sealing ring, which is disposed in the clearance channel. The electrical control wire 21 passes through the second sealing ring, and the outer surface of the electrical control wire 21 is in contact with the inner ring of the second sealing ring.

[0044] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the temperature control box body 2 is provided with a temperature display screen 22, and the side of the waterproof box 1 opposite to the temperature display screen 22 is made of a transparent material. This arrangement allows the user to observe the temperature on the temperature display screen 22 through the waterproof box 1.

[0045] It should be noted that the temperature display screen 22 on the temperature control box body 2 is used to display the temperature of the object being measured. Users can observe the temperature value monitored or controlled by the temperature control box in real time without the need for additional instruments or equipment. The temperature can be read directly through the display screen, which improves the convenience and intuitiveness of operation.

[0046] like Figure 1As shown, the second housing 12 is opposite to the temperature display screen 22 on the temperature control box body 2, and the second housing 12 is made of transparent material.

[0047] As an alternative implementation, both the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 can be made of transparent material.

[0048] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the temperature control box body 2 is connected to the waterproof box 1 via a connector 4. The size of the connector 4 can be set according to actual needs, thereby increasing the contact area between the temperature control box body 2 and the waterproof box 1 to enhance the connection stability of the temperature control box body 2.

[0049] Furthermore, the connector 4 is provided with a limiting groove, the temperature control box body 2 is inserted into the limiting groove, and the fastener passes through the connector 4 and the temperature control box body 2 and is connected to the waterproof box 1. The fastener is a bolt.

[0050] like Figure 2 As shown, the connector 4 is a groove-shaped plate, and a limiting groove is formed between the two side plates of the connector 4. The temperature control box body 2 is located in the limiting groove, which serves as a positioning function to prevent the temperature control box body 2 from rotating relative to the connector 4 during installation. The side plate of the connector 4 has an clearance notch 41 through which the electrical control line 21 extends to the outside of the limiting groove.

[0051] The bottom of the waterproof box 1 has a mounting hole that extends through the bottom of the waterproof box 1. The bolt passes through the connector 4, the temperature control box body 2, and the waterproof box 1 in sequence, and then exits from the bottom of the waterproof box 1 to connect with the external base component. In order to improve the sealing performance of the bolt connection and prevent leakage in high-pressure or humid environments, sealing tape is wrapped around the bolt.

[0052] According to another specific embodiment of this application, a cooking robot is provided, which includes a temperature control box assembly, which is the same as the temperature control box assembly in the above embodiment. The temperature control box assembly is used to monitor the temperature of the cooking oil.

[0053] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects:

The outer surface of the electrical control wire 21 is sealed to the side wall of the clearance channel to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the waterproof box 1 through the clearance channel. In the above solution, the temperature control box body 2 is sealed within the receiving cavity of the waterproof box 1. The waterproof box 1 acts as a waterproof barrier for the temperature control box body 2, isolating it from the external environment to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the temperature control box body 2.
