AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the prior art, the cover and tank body of the water tank assembly require a complex guiding and limiting structure to align before the fasteners are tightened, which takes up space and has low assembly efficiency.

Method used

The first guide section on the inner wall of the cover engages with the edge of the electrical control box to achieve automatic alignment of the cover, reducing the need for guide and limiting structures on the box. The electrical control box is used as a reference for guidance, simplifying the assembly process.

Benefits of technology

It improves assembly efficiency, reduces the space occupied during installation, and increases space utilization.
