[0026] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0027] The following describes in detail the overall structure, working principle, and technical effects of the housing and water purifier provided by this utility model through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a housing 10 and a water purifier 1, which are applied in the field of water purification technology. By setting a waterproof structure 300 at the connection between the housing 10 and the shell 30, it can effectively prevent the infiltrated liquid from contacting the main control board 50, thereby improving the waterproof performance and electrical safety of the equipment.

[0029] The enclosure 10 includes a main structure 100 and a waterproof structure 300. The main structure 100 is connected to the housing 30 and together with the housing 30, forms a cavity for accommodating the main control board 50. The waterproof structure 300 is located on the side where the main structure 100 connects to the housing 30 and is used to shield the main control board 50, preventing liquid from seeping in from the gap between the enclosure 10 and the housing 30 from contacting the main control board 50.

[0030] In other words, by setting a waterproof structure 300 at the connection between the housing 10 and the shell 30, this utility model can effectively shield the main control board 50 and prevent liquid that seeps in from the assembly gap between the housing 10 and the shell 30 from contacting the main control board 50, thereby improving the problems of short circuits and damage to electronic components caused by liquid seepage, and enhancing the overall waterproof performance and electrical safety of the water purifier 1.

[0031] Figure 2 Provided for this embodiment Figure 1 An enlarged diagram of point A in the middle, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the waterproof structure 300 includes a shielding plate 310. The shielding plate 310 is connected to the main structure 100 and extends along the length of the housing 10 toward the penetration shell 30, serving to physically shield the main control board 50 and prevent the penetration liquid from directly contacting the main control board 50.

[0032] Furthermore, the waterproof structure 300 also includes a blocking element 330, which is disposed on the baffle plate 310 and located on the side of the baffle plate 310 away from the main structure 100, so that the projection of the assembly gap between the housing 10 and the shell 30 on the horizontal plane falls between the baffle plate 310 and the blocking element 330. Based on this, it can be understood that the blocking element 330 is used to block liquid from seeping into the gap between the housing 10 and the shell 30, preventing it from flowing down from the edge of the baffle plate 310 and directly invading the main control board 50.

[0033] In some embodiments, to reduce assembly steps and enhance overall water-proof performance, the baffle plate 310 is integrally formed with the main structure 100. In other embodiments, the baffle plate 310 may also be fixedly connected to the main structure 100 by means of screws, clips, adhesives, welding, etc., as needed.

[0034] Furthermore, the barrier 330 is made of a water-absorbing material and adheres to the baffle 310. For example, the barrier 330 can be a protective cotton, which not only provides physical protection but also absorbs some of the infiltrated liquid, thereby further enhancing the waterproof effect. It should also be noted that the shape of the barrier 330 can be designed as a strip or a wave shape according to actual needs to adapt to the need for blocking liquid from different directions.

[0035] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 In addition to enhancing the shielding and protection of the main control board 50, a groove 311 is formed by a partial downward indentation of the shielding plate 310 to effectively guide and centrally treat the seeping liquid. This groove 311 is used to collect liquid seeping in from the gap between the box 10 and the shell 30. Specifically, the cross-section of the groove 311 can be set to a U-shape, V-shape, or other shapes with good liquid collection capacity. Its depth and width can be set according to actual needs to ensure sufficient liquid holding capacity.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, the two ends of the baffle 310 extending in a predetermined direction are used to abut against the housing 30, thereby forming a tight fit structure with the housing 30. According to Figure 1 As can be seen, in this embodiment, the preset direction is the width direction of the box 10, that is, the baffle 310 extends along the width direction of the box 10. Correspondingly, the blocking member 330 can also extend along the width direction of the box 10, consistent with the extension direction of the baffle 310, to enhance the waterproof effect.

[0037] Based on the above, at least one end of the baffle plate 310 that abuts against the housing 30 is provided with a groove 311. Specifically, the groove 311 is located on the side of the baffle plate 310 near the contact end face of the housing 30. When liquid seeps in from the assembly gap between the housing 10 and the housing 30 and flows along the surface of the baffle plate 310, the groove 311 can effectively guide and collect the liquid. Furthermore, when the groove 311 is full of liquid, the liquid can flow downwards along the inner wall of the housing 30 without directly intruding into the main control board 50.

[0038] In other embodiments, the arrangement of the grooves 311 can also be adjusted according to actual needs. For example, the grooves 311 can be located in the middle of the baffle plate 310, or multiple grooves 311 can be arranged at intervals along the preset extension direction of the baffle plate 310 to accommodate liquid infiltration at different positions and directions, thereby further improving the guiding and collection effect of the infiltrated liquid.

[0039] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The enclosure 10 also includes a positioning structure 500 for mounting the main control board 50. The positioning structure 500 is connected to the main structure 100 and is located below the waterproof structure 300. It is understood that by positioning the positioning structure 500 below the waterproof structure 300, the main control board 50 can be effectively covered and protected by the waterproof structure 300 after installation, preventing liquids seeping in from the gap between the enclosure 10 and the housing 30 from directly or indirectly contacting the main control board 50.

[0040] Specifically, the positioning structure 500 includes a base plate 510 and two side plates 530. The base plate 510 is a flat plate structure positioned opposite the waterproof structure 300, and its shape matches the bottom contour of the main control board 50, ensuring that the main control board 50 remains stable after installation. Each side plate 530 is connected to the base plate 510 at one end and extends upward to connect to the waterproof structure 300 at the other end, forming a limiting space around the main control board 50.

[0041] Understandably, this limiting space not only provides stable support and lateral limitation for the main control board 50, but also effectively encloses the two sides of the main control board 50, preventing liquids from the sides of the housing 10 that may flow along the inner wall of the housing 30 from directly invading the main control board 50.

[0042] To more effectively intercept liquids and reduce their impact on the main control board 50, the projection of the waterproof structure 300 on the horizontal plane completely covers the projection of the positioning structure 500 on the horizontal plane. In other words, the vertical projection of the waterproof structure 300 (e.g., the baffle 310) located above the positioning structure 500 completely covers the area occupied by the positioning structure 500. Based on this design, regardless of the angle from which liquid seeps in, the waterproof structure 300 provides all-around protection, preventing direct or indirect contact between the liquid and the main control board 50.

[0043] In summary, this utility model provides a housing 10, including a main structure 100 and a waterproof structure 300. The main structure 100 connects to the housing 30 and together with the housing 30 forms a cavity for accommodating the main control board 50. The waterproof structure 300 is located on the side where the main structure 100 connects to the housing 30, and is used to shield the main control board 50, preventing liquid seeping into the gap between the housing 10 and the housing 30 from contacting the main control board 50. In other words, by providing a waterproof structure 300 at the connection between the housing 10 and the housing 30, this utility model effectively shields the main control board 50, preventing water seepage due to the assembly gap between the housing 10 and the housing 30 from contacting the main control board 50. This improves the overall waterproof performance and electrical safety of the water purifier 1, preventing short circuits and damage to electronic components caused by water infiltration.

[0044] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, this utility model also provides a water purifier 1, which includes a housing 30 and a box 10 as described in the previous embodiment, with the housing 30 connected to the box 10. Since the water purifier 1 includes the aforementioned box 10 structure, it also effectively shields the main control board 50, preventing water from seeping into the main control board 50 due to the assembly gap between the box 10 and the housing 30. This avoids problems such as short circuits and damage to electronic components, improving the overall waterproof performance and electrical safety of the water purifier 1. The related technical effects will not be elaborated further here.

[0045] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
