[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this utility model clearer, the utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the illustration, this utility model provides a conveniently placed herbal remedy, comprising a body 1, a door 2 mounted on the body 1, and a control box 3. The control box 3 is located below the door 2, reducing the horizontal space occupied by the body 1. This makes it suitable for small kitchens or spaces with limited capacity, offering wide applicability and high practicality, thus improving the user experience. A water-blocking component 4 is provided between the control box 3 and the door 2. Both the water-blocking component 4 and the control box 3 have outward-directing structures to guide spilled liquids outward.

[0023] The flow guiding structure includes a first flow guiding surface 41 disposed on the water-proof component 4 and a second flow guiding surface 32 disposed on the control box 3, with the second flow guiding surface 32 located below the water-proof component 4. The first flow guiding surface 41 guides the liquid that is spilled and flows down the outer shell 11 of the machine body 1, allowing the liquid to flow outwards and preventing it from flowing into the gap between the control box 3 and the outer shell 11 of the machine body 1. The control box 3 includes a housing 31 and a control panel 5 disposed on the housing 31. The end of the housing 31 facing the water-proof component 4 has a second flow guiding surface 32 that guides the liquid outwards. The second flow guiding surface 32 guides the liquid that is directly or indirectly spilled onto it, allowing the liquid to flow outwards and further preventing it from flowing into the gap between the control box 3 and the outer shell 11 of the machine body 1. This facilitates cleaning, reduces the risk of bacterial accumulation, ensures the safety of the internal circuitry, and guarantees the stable operation of the herbal medicine machine.

[0024] Furthermore, the water-proof component 4 protrudes from the surface of the body 1. The water-proof component 4 is close to the connection between the upper part of the control box 3 and the outer shell 11 of the body 1. A small gap is left between the water-proof component 4 and the shell 31, so as to play a water-proof role at the connection between the two and prevent water from flowing along the side wall of the outer shell 11 of the body 1 into the gap at the connection.

[0025] Preferably, the water-proof component 4 is integrally formed with the outer shell 11 of the body 1, which simplifies the structure and manufacturing process and reduces costs. In this embodiment, the water-proof component 4 can be formed by machining an outwardly protruding part on the outer shell 11.

[0026] In this embodiment, the orthographic projection of the water-blocking component 4 is located on the second guide surface 32. The cross-section of the first guide surface 41 is an inclined surface extending from top to bottom and from inside to outside. Water guided by the first guide surface 41 will fall onto the second guide surface 32, thereby guiding the liquid outward through the second guide surface 32. This ensures that the liquid stays away from the connection gap between the control box 3 and the outer shell 11 of the body 1, preventing bacterial accumulation and ensuring the safety of the internal circuit environment of the control box 3. In other embodiments, the cross-section of the first guide surface 41 may also be an arc surface or other cross-sections with a guiding effect.

[0027] Preferably, the cross-section of the second guide surface 32 is an inclined surface extending from top to bottom and from inside to outside, so as to guide the liquid falling onto the second guide surface 32 outward, further preventing it from flowing into the gap between the control box 3 and the outer shell 11 of the body 1, preventing bacterial accumulation, and ensuring the safety of the internal circuit environment. In other embodiments, the cross-section of the second guide surface 32 may also be an arc surface, or other cross-sections with a guiding effect.

[0028] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the control panel 5 includes a control circuit board 51 and a display screen 52. Both the control circuit board 51 and the display screen 52 are housed within the housing 31. The control circuit board 51 is electrically connected to both the display screen 52 and the main control board within the machine body 1 to control the herbal machine to perform normal operating functions. The control circuit board 51 is equipped with control buttons 511 and push-button knobs 512, both of which extend outside the housing 31. Users can utilize the control buttons 511 and push-button knobs 512 to perform the corresponding herbal beverage processing functions. The display screen 52 displays content outward through the display area 33 on the housing 31, allowing users to check the working status of the herbal machine at any time, thus improving the user experience.

[0029] The housing 31 has multiple locking plates 311 spaced apart on one side, and fixing posts 312 are respectively provided on both sides inside the housing 31. The outer shell 11 of the machine body 1 has locking grooves 12 corresponding to the locking plates 311. The locking plates 311 are engaged with the locking grooves 12 to achieve initial fixation. The outer shell 11 of the machine body 1 has fasteners that are adapted to the fixing posts 312. The fasteners are fixedly connected to the fixing posts 312. The fasteners can be screws or locking protrusions. For example, a fixing screw passes through the outer shell 11 of the machine body 1 and is threaded to the fixing post 312, or a locking protrusion passes through the outer shell 11 of the machine body 1 and is engaged with the fixing post 312, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the housing 31 and the machine body 1.

[0030] The preferred shape of the locking plate 311 is L-shaped, but it is not limited thereto. The L-shaped locking plate 311 can slide into the locking groove 12 and achieve a locking and fixed connection.

[0031] Furthermore, the housing 31 is provided with a plurality of circuit board positioning posts 313, and the control circuit board 51 is provided with a plurality of first positioning holes 513. A first fastener passes through the first positioning hole 513 and is fixedly connected to the circuit board positioning posts 313, thereby fixing the control circuit board 51 in the housing 31. The first fastener is a fixing screw.

[0032] The front end of the housing 31 is provided with a mounting groove 34, and a cover plate 35 is provided in the mounting groove 34. The display area 33 is provided on the cover plate 35. The housing 31 is provided with a through groove 314, and one end of the display screen 52 is embedded in the through groove 314. The edge of the other end of the display screen 52 is provided with a second positioning hole 521. The housing 31 is provided with a positioning post 315 corresponding to the second positioning hole 521. The housing 31 is provided with an elastic locking protrusion 316, which is diagonally arranged with the positioning post 315. The elastic locking protrusion 316 is engaged with the edge of the other end of the display screen 52 and is fixedly connected to the positioning post 315 by a second fastener passing through the second positioning hole 521. When one end of the display screen 52 is embedded in the through groove 314, the four edges of the other end of the display screen 52 will abut against the sides of the through groove 314 and the inner side of the elastic latching plate 316, thus providing initial fixation for the display screen 52. Then, a second fastener is used to pass through the second positioning hole 521 and be fixedly connected to the positioning post 315, thereby fixing the display screen 52 in the housing 31. The second fastener is a fixing screw.

[0033] In summary, this utility model, by placing the control panel below the herbal maker, reduces the horizontal space occupied by the machine, making it suitable for small kitchens or spaces with limited capacity. Its wide applicability and high practicality enhance the user experience. Furthermore, the first and second guide surfaces effectively divert spilled liquid outwards, preventing it from entering the gap between the control panel and the outer casing, facilitating cleaning, reducing bacterial buildup, ensuring the safety of the internal circuitry, and guaranteeing stable operation of the herbal maker.
