Detailed Implementation

[0031] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0032] This utility model relates to an electric hot pot installation structure, including a first base 100, a first terminal 310, a second base 400, and a second terminal 320.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a first plug assembly 200 is provided on the first base 100, and the first plug assembly 200 can be located at the bottom of the first base 100. A first terminal 310 is installed at the first plug assembly 200, and the first terminal 310 is made of conductive metal. The first base 100 can serve as the base of the pot body 810 of an electric hot pot. An electric heating module, such as an electric heating plate or an electric heating wire, is installed at the bottom of the pot body 810. The electrode terminals of the electric heating module are connected to the first terminal 310 via wires. A first plug-in position 500 is provided on the second base 400, and the first plug-in position 500 can be located at the top or upper part of the second base 400. The first base 100 is detachably installed on the second base 400, and the second base 400 supports the first base 100. The first plug assembly 200 and the first plug-in position 500 are mated and plugged in. The second terminal 320 is installed on the second base 400. The second terminal 320 is made of conductive metal, and a second terminal 320 is installed at the corresponding position of each first plug-in position 500. Electrical components such as the electric control board 820 of the electric hot pot can be installed inside the second base 400. The terminals of the electric control board 820 are paired with the second terminals 320 one by one via wires. After the first plug group 200 and the first plug-in position 500 are plugged in, the first terminal 310 abuts against the corresponding second terminal 320 to achieve electrical conduction. By pairing the first plug group 200 and the first plug-in position 500, the first base 100 is quickly positioned and installed on the second base 400. The first base 100 can be quickly installed and removed relative to the second base 400, facilitating cleaning of the pot body 810 by the user.

[0034] In this embodiment, the shapes of the first plug assembly 200 and the first insertion position 500 are adapted to each other. For example, the first plug assembly 200 can be configured as a protrusion, and the first insertion position 500 can be configured as a countersunk hole adapted to its shape for insertion. In this embodiment, as shown... Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the first plug assembly 200 includes two spaced-apart first posts 210, which extend downward from the bottom wall of the first base 100. The shape of the first posts 210 is not limited and can be cylindrical, semi-cylindrical, square, etc. The first terminal 310 is a metal conductive sheet, which is vertically installed between the two first posts 210. The first plug position 500 includes two spaced-apart first holes 510. The second base 400 has a slot 410 at the interval between the two first holes 510. The shape of the first holes 510 is adapted to the shape of the first posts 210. The second holes can extend downward in a countersunk shape on the upper side of the second base 400, and the slot 410 extends vertically through the upper side of the second base 400. The second terminal 320 is located below the slot 410. During installation, the first pins 210 are paired and inserted into the first sockets 510 one by one. The first sockets 510 are used to position the first pins 210. The first terminal 310 passes through the slot 410 from top to bottom and then abuts against the second terminal 320. The two first pins 210 in each group and the two first sockets 510 in each group must be aligned before insertion to ensure that the first terminal 310 can pass smoothly through the slot 410 without interference.

[0035] Furthermore, limiting grooves 220 are formed on the opposing surfaces of the two first plugs 210 on the same first plug assembly 200, and the limiting grooves 220 extend vertically. The upper part of the first terminal 310 passes through the bottom wall of the first base 100. A through hole can be formed in the bottom wall, and the upper part of the first terminal 310 passes upward through the through hole through the bottom wall of the first base 100. The part of the first terminal 310 that passes upward through the bottom wall is used to connect the wire. The two sides of the first terminal 310 are respectively inserted into the limiting grooves 220 on both sides. The limiting grooves 220 limit the two sides of the first terminal 310 to prevent the first terminal 310 from swaying. After installation, the first terminal 310 can be fixed to the first base 100 by means of glue, spot welding, etc., or the limiting grooves 220 can be set to have an interference fit with the sides of the first terminal 310 to clamp and fix the first terminal 310. The first terminal 310 has two first connectors 311 on its upper part. The first connectors 311 can pass upward through the aforementioned through holes to the bottom wall of the first base 100, and then connect to wires via the first connectors 311, thereby connecting to the heating module. The two first connectors 311 on the same first terminal 310 can be connected in parallel to the same wire to ensure that the first terminal 310 can conduct electricity with the wire, or the two first connectors 311 on the same first terminal 310 can be connected to different wires, and the different wires can be connected to different electrical components to conduct electricity.

[0036] In one embodiment, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second terminal 320 includes a spring-loaded portion 321. The spring-loaded portion 321 is located below the slot 410. After the first plug assembly 200 is inserted into the first plug position 500, the first terminal 310 passes downward through the slot 410 and abuts against the spring-loaded portion 321. The first terminal 310 pushes the spring-loaded portion 321 downward, causing it to elastically swing. When the first base 100 moves away from the second base 400, the spring-loaded portion 321 loses the pressure from the first terminal 310 and elastically resets, swinging upward. This ensures that the first terminal 310 and the second terminal 320 make sufficient contact for electrical conduction.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments, a micro switch 600 is also included. At least one of the second terminals 320 is equipped with a micro switch 600 at its corresponding position. The micro switch 600 is located below the slot 410. The micro switch 600 can be connected to an electronic control board 820 or a power supply unit mounted on the second base 400. When the first terminal 310 pushes the spring portion 321 downwards, causing it to elastically swing, the spring portion 321 presses the spring of the micro switch 600, causing the micro switch 600 to enter the energized state. Only then will the electronic control board 820 or the power supply unit energize the second terminal 320 through a wire. When the first terminal 310 moves away from the spring portion 321, the spring portion 321 elastically resets, the spring on the micro switch 600 resets, and the micro switch 600 changes to the off state. At this time, the electronic control board 820 or the power supply unit will not supply power to the second terminal 320, thereby improving electrical safety. The micro switch 600 can be mounted on the second base 400 via a bracket 830. Specifically, the bracket 830 includes a first connecting portion 831 and a second connecting portion 832. The first connecting portion 831 can be configured as an L-shaped plate, and the second connecting portion 832 is a flat plate that extends from one side of the first connecting portion 831. The first connecting portion 831 can be fixed to the second base 400 with screws. The second connecting portion 832 is positioned opposite to the spring portion 321 and is located between the two first insertion holes 510. The micro switch 600 is mounted on the second connecting portion 832. The first connecting portion 831 can avoid the first insertion position 500, making full use of the remaining space of the second base 400 for fixing, which facilitates the fixed installation of the bracket.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second terminal 320 is provided with two spring tabs 321, which are spaced apart and extend parallel to each other in the same direction. Both spring tabs 321 can simultaneously abut against the first terminal 310 and undergo elastic deformation. Even if one of the spring tabs 321 fails elastically, the other can still be used to maintain electrical conductivity between the first terminal 310 and the second terminal 320. The second terminal 320 also includes two second connectors 322 for connecting wires. The two connectors on the same second terminal 320 can be connected in parallel to the same wire and then connected to the control board 820 to ensure the stability of the electrical connection.

[0039] The first plug group 200 can be set to two, three or more, and the first plug position 500 can be set to two, three or more, with the same number of first plug groups 200 and first plug positions 500.

[0040] One of the first plug groups 200 has its first terminal 310 connected to one of the first plug positions 500 and then connected to the live wire; the first terminal 310 of one of the first plug groups 200 has its first plug position 500 connected to the neutral wire. In one embodiment, as... Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the two first plug groups 200 are centrally or axially symmetrically distributed on the bottom of the first base 100. When centrally symmetrical, the two first plug groups 200 are distributed with the center of the bottom of the first base 100 as the center of symmetry; when axially symmetrical, the two first plug groups 200 are symmetrically distributed with a straight line passing through the center of the bottom of the first base 100 as the axis of symmetry. The two first plug positions 500 are centrally or axially symmetrically distributed on the upper part of the second base 400. During installation, the first base 100 and the second base 400 are concentrically connected. Each first plug group 200 and each first plug position 500 can be selectively paired and plugged in. That is, during installation, one of the first plug groups 200 can be connected to any one of the first plug positions 500, and the other first plug group 200 is connected to the other first plug position 500. This allows for quick connection and installation without distinguishing positions.

[0041] Furthermore, the first base 100 is also provided with two second plug groups 710, each of which is equipped with a first terminal 310. The shape of the second plug group 710 and the first plug group 200 can be set to be the same or different. The second base 400 is also provided with two second plug positions 720, each of which is equipped with a second terminal 320. The shape of the second plug position 720 and the first plug position 500 can be set to be the same or different. The two second plug groups 710 are centrally or axially symmetrically distributed on the bottom of the first base 100, and the two second plug positions 720 are centrally or axially symmetrically distributed on the upper part of the second base 400. Different models of electric hot pots have different electrical control boards 820 and other electrical components installed in the second base 400. These components are connected to the second terminal 320 of the first plug-in 500 or the second plug-in 720 via wires. Different models of electric hot pots can have heating modules of different power or DC / AC power installed in the first base 100. The heating modules are connected to the first terminal 310 of the first plug group 200 or the second plug group 710 via wires. This increases the versatility of the first base 100 and the second base 400. The second plug group 710 and the second plug position 720 are paired and plugged in one by one. The symmetrical positions of the two first plug groups 200 and the two second plug positions 720 are offset, that is, the symmetrical angles of the second plug positions 720 and the first plug positions 500 are different. This makes it possible for the second plug group 710 to be paired and plugged in only with the second plug position 720, and the first plug group 200 to be paired and plugged in only with the first plug position 500. The first plug group 200 cannot be paired and inserted into the second plug position 720. The two second plug positions 720 can be set to be centrally symmetrical or axially symmetrical to ensure electrical safety and model matching.
