Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ice maker technology, and more specifically, to an embedded ice maker housing. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, ice makers, as common refrigeration appliances, are gradually entering homes. Currently, most ice maker cabinets are square in structure, assembled from a top panel, left side panel, bottom panel, and right side panel. The connection between two panels is usually fixed with screws, resulting in an unstable structure that easily forms a parallelogram shape, making later assembly difficult. In addition, gaps exist between the two panels, leading to poor sealing and cold leakage. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an embedded ice maker housing, aiming to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To achieve the above objective, the technical solution adopted is as follows:

[0004] An embedded ice maker housing includes a U-shaped cabinet and a top cover. The U-shaped cabinet is an integral structure composed of a bottom plate, a left side plate, and a right side plate. The top of the left side plate and the top of the right side plate are respectively provided with strip-shaped slots along their length. Strip-shaped blocks are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the top cover near the left edge and near the right edge, respectively. The top cover is installed at the top opening of the U-shaped cabinet, and the left strip-shaped block is locked in the strip-shaped slot at the top of the left side plate, while the right strip-shaped block is locked in the strip-shaped slot at the top of the right side plate. The connection between each set of strip-shaped blocks and strip-shaped slots is achieved by at least two screws passing through the side wall of the strip-shaped slot and connecting to the strip-shaped block.

[0005] Preferably, the strip-shaped card block is a stainless steel square tube.

[0006] Preferably, the top surface of the top cover and the outer surface of the U-shaped cabinet are covered with a single piece of stainless steel sheet.

[0007] Preferably, the U-shaped cabinet is equipped with a baffle that divides the internal space of the U-shaped cabinet into two cavities arranged in front and behind.

[0008] Preferably, the baffle and the U-shaped cabinet are an integrated structure.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] This utility model discloses an embedded ice maker housing with a stable structure, which is not easily deformed and is convenient for later assembly. The connection between the top cover and the U-shaped cabinet is seamless, which avoids the loss of cold energy. Attached Figure Description

[0011] To more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0016] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, a preferred embodiment of this utility model provides an embedded ice maker housing, which includes a U-shaped cabinet and a top cover 1. The U-shaped cabinet is an integral structure, consisting of a bottom plate 2, a left side plate 3, and a right side plate 4. A baffle 5 is also provided inside the U-shaped cabinet, and the baffle 5 is an integral structure with the U-shaped cabinet. The baffle 5 divides the internal space of the U-shaped cabinet into two cavities arranged front and rear. The rear cavity is used to install the components of the ice maker, and the front cavity is used to store ice.

[0018] The top of the left side plate 3 and the top of the right side plate 4 are respectively provided with strip-shaped slots 6 along their length direction. The bottom surface of the top cover plate 1 is fixedly installed with strip-shaped blocks 7 near the left edge and near the right edge. The strip-shaped blocks 7 are strip-shaped stainless steel square tubes, which are fixedly connected to the top cover plate 1 by screws. Specifically, one side of the stainless steel square tube is tightly fitted with the top cover plate 1, and the opposite side is provided with multiple through holes at intervals. The screws extend into the square tube through the through holes, pass through the side wall of the square tube, and are fixedly connected to the top cover plate 1.

[0019] The top cover 1 is installed at the top opening of the U-shaped cabinet, with the left strip-shaped latch engaging in the strip-shaped slot at the top of the left side panel, and the right strip-shaped latch engaging in the strip-shaped slot at the top of the right side panel, as shown. Figure 2 As shown. To ensure the strength of the connection between the top cover 1 and the U-shaped cabinet, the connection between each set of strip-shaped blocks 7 and strip-shaped slots 6 is fixed to the strip-shaped blocks by at least two screws passing through the side wall of the strip-shaped slot. Specifically, two screws are provided at intervals on the left and right sides of the strip-shaped slot.

[0020] Furthermore, in order to improve the strength of the enclosure and prevent deformation, the top, bottom, left and right sides of the enclosure, that is, the top surface of the top cover and the outer surface of the U-shaped cabinet, are covered with a single piece of stainless steel sheet.

[0021] In summary, the embedded ice maker housing described in this embodiment of the present invention has a stable structure, is not easily deformed, is convenient for later assembly, and has a seamless connection between the top cover and the U-shaped cabinet, thus preventing the loss of cold energy.

[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
