[0026] An embodiment of this utility model provides a top cover assembly for a dehumidifier, such as... Figure 1-5 As shown, it includes:
[0027] Top cover 100;
[0028] The lower cover 200, the upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200 form a waterproof space 300 for placing the circuit board. The bottom of the lower cover 200 is provided with a wire channel 210, and one end of the wire channel 210 is connected to the waterproof space 300.
[0029] The wire pressing structure 400 is connected to the wire guide groove 210 and forms a wire guide channel 500 with the bottom wall of the wire guide groove 210.
[0030] The upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200 work together to form a waterproof space 300 for housing the circuit board. The upper cover 100 and the lower cover 200 provide protection and a seal. The bottom of the lower cover 200 has a wire channel 210, one end of which connects to the waterproof space 300. The design of the wire channel 210 allows wires to enter the waterproof space 300 from the outside while maintaining waterproof performance.
[0031] The wire clamping structure 400 is used to secure the wires, preventing them from loosening or shifting during the wire passage process. The wire clamping structure 400 connects and mates with the wire passage groove 210, forming a wire passage channel 500 with the bottom wall of the groove 210. The size and shape of the wire passage channel 500 should match the wires to ensure smooth passage while providing effective clamping and securing.

The design of the wire clamping structure 400 and the wire passage groove 210 allows wires to pass safely and orderly, preventing loosening or damage.
[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0033] First, place the circuit board within the waterproof space 300, ensuring that the circuit board's wires pass through one end of the wire guide 210. Then, install the wire clamping structure 400 onto the wire guide 210, ensuring a tight fit to secure the wires within the wire passage 500. This step allows the wire clamping structure 400 to firmly hold the wires in place. Finally, install the upper cover 100 onto the lower cover 200, ensuring a tight fit to form a complete waterproof space 300. The upper cover 100 and lower cover 200 can be secured using screws, clips, or other fastening methods.
[0034] In some embodiments, the wire guide groove 210 includes a first mounting groove 211 and a second mounting groove 212, and the wire pressing structure 400 includes a first mounting portion 410 that is connected to the first mounting groove 211 and a second mounting portion 420 that is connected to the second mounting groove 212.
[0035] The first mounting groove 211 is part of the wire guide groove 210 and is used to mate with the first mounting portion 410 of the wire clamping structure 400. The first mounting groove 211 is typically designed as a recessed shape, its size and shape matching the first mounting portion 410 of the wire clamping structure 400. This ensures that the first mounting portion 410 can be tightly installed within the first mounting groove 211.

The second mounting groove 212 is also designed as a recessed shape, its size and shape matching the second mounting portion 420 of the wire clamping structure 400. The position and design of the second mounting groove 212 can differ from the first mounting groove 211 to meet different installation requirements. By dividing the wire guide groove 210 and the wire clamping structure 400 into two parts, the stability of the assembly can be improved. The first mounting portion 410 and the second mounting portion 420 mate with the first mounting groove 211 and the second mounting groove 212 respectively, forming a double fixation to ensure a more secure wire connection.
[0036] Furthermore, the first mounting part 410 is provided with a first buckle 411 that engages with the groove wall of the first mounting groove 211.
[0037] The first latch 411 securely fixes the first mounting part 410 within the first mounting groove 211, ensuring that the wire pressing structure 400 does not loosen. The first latch 411 is designed as a flexible protrusion or hook-shaped structure located on the side of the first mounting part 410. The groove wall of the first mounting groove 211 has a groove or hole that matches the first latch 411 for engaging it. The engagement of the first latch 411 with the groove wall of the first mounting groove 211 ensures that the first mounting part 410 is securely fixed within the first mounting groove 211, enhancing the stability of the entire wire pressing structure 400. The latch design makes the installation and removal of the first mounting part 410 more convenient and quick, requiring no additional tools or complex operations.
[0038] Furthermore, there are two first buckles 411, which are respectively located on both sides of the first mounting part 410.
[0039] In some embodiments, the pressure wire structure 400 further includes a bending portion 430, and guide blocks 431 are provided on both sides of the bending portion 430. The guide blocks 431 are slidably connected to the groove wall of the wire groove 210.
[0040] The bend 430 provides additional guidance, ensuring the wire pressing structure 400 smoothly engages with the wire guide groove 210. The guide block 431 primarily guides the wire pressing structure 400 to slide within the wire guide groove 210, ensuring a smoother installation process and providing additional fixing force. The guide block 431 can be a protrusion or a slider, located on both sides of the bend 430, engaging with the groove wall of the wire guide groove 210 to form a sliding connection. The design of the bend 430 and guide block 431 provides additional support and fixing force, ensuring the wire pressing structure 400 is more firmly fixed within the wire guide groove 210, further enhancing the stability of the entire wire pressing structure 400.
[0041] In some embodiments, the second mounting portion 420 is provided with a second latch 421 that engages with the groove wall of the second mounting groove 212.
[0042] The second latch 421 securely fixes the second mounting part 420 within the second mounting groove 212, ensuring that the wire pressing structure 400 does not loosen.

The latch design makes the installation and removal of the second mounting part 420 more convenient and quick, requiring no additional tools or complex operations.
[0043] In some embodiments, the wire guide groove 210 further includes a fitting groove 213 for fitting the wire pressing structure 400.
[0044] The fitting groove 213 provides an additional fixing point for fitting the wire pressing structure 400, ensuring that the wire pressing structure 400 is more firmly fixed within the wire guide groove 210 and preventing loosening. The fitting groove 213 is designed on the inner wall of the wire guide groove 210, and its shape and size match the fitting portion of the wire pressing structure 400. The fitting groove 213 can be a recess or a groove of a specific shape, used to fit a portion of the wire pressing structure 400. The tight fit between the fitting groove 213 and the fitting portion of the wire pressing structure 400 provides an additional fixing point, ensuring that the wire pressing structure 400 is more firmly fixed within the wire guide groove 210, further enhancing the stability of the entire wire pressing structure 400. The fitting design effectively prevents the wire pressing structure 400 from loosening due to vibration or external forces during use, improving the reliability of the component.
[0045] In some embodiments, the pressure crease structure 400 is provided with pressure ribs 440, which are located on the upper surface of the pressure crease structure 400.
[0046] The wire clamping ribs 440 provide additional securing force to ensure that the wires do not loosen or shift within the wire guide 210, while also protecting the wires from damage caused by external pressure. The wire clamping ribs 440 are typically designed as one or more raised ribs located on the upper surface of the wire clamping structure 400. The shape and size of the ribs can be adjusted according to the diameter and number of wires to ensure optimal securing performance.
