The water collecting tray is directly arranged at the lower side of the charging barrel and detachably mounted in the snow melting machine body. In this way, the condensate water generated on the outer wall of the charging barrel during operation can directly fall into the water collecting tray, and the unhygienic phenomenon caused by splashing is prevented. In addition, the water collecting tray can be disassembled and cleaned at any time, thereby ensuring the hygienic use of the equipment.
[0024] In the present scheme, when the snow melting machine is in operation, the condensate water generated on the outer wall of the charging barrel 2 naturally flows and drips downward along the outer wall of the charging barrel 2 under the action of gravity. In order to more conveniently collect the condensate water, as shown in Fig. 4, the snow melting machine body 1 is provided with a mounting position 101 adapted to the charging barrel 2. In the present scheme, the mounting position 101 has a structure of semi-enclosing the lower side outer periphery of the charging barrel 2, and the lower side of the mounting position 101 is an installation cavity 102 for mounting the water collecting tray 3.

[0027] In the present scheme, the water receiving tray 3 is installed in a detachable manner from the front side, the front end of the installation cavity 102 is a assembly opening 1021, and the water receiving tray 3 is loaded from the assembly opening 1021.Furthermore, the specific structure of the water receiving tray 3 is that the water receiving tray 3 comprises a tray body 31 and an end cover 32 arranged at the front end of the tray body 31, and the end cover 32 is capped on the assembly opening 1021 after the water receiving tray 3 is installed.After assembly, the structure of the water receiving tray 3 also blocks the assembly opening 1021, which also prevents the internal dripping and splashing from flying out of the outside, and the gap formed by capping the assembly opening 1021 makes the appearance more beautiful.
[0028] In the embodiment of the utility model, in order to further improve the collection effect, the upper end of at least two sides of the tray body 31 has a water retaining outer edge 311 extending outwardly.Because the water receiving tray 3 and the snow melting machine body are detachably installed, the gap between the water receiving tray 3 and the side wall of the installation cavity 102 after installation is reduced by increasing the water retaining outer edge 311, so that the condensate water flowing down along the inner wall of the installation cavity 102 enters the tray body 31 as much as possible.
[0029] In the embodiment of the utility model, the first limiting part 41 is arranged on the assembly opening 1021, the second limiting part 42 is arranged on the end cover 32, and the first limiting part 41 cooperates with the second limiting part 42 after the end cover 32 is installed in place.Through the first limiting part 41 and the second limiting part 42, the water receiving tray 3 can be fixed to a certain extent, so that it will not easily fall off or loosen.
[0030] Specifically, in order to make the installation and disassembly operation more simple, the first limiting part 41 of the present scheme is an elastic clamping block arranged in the assembly opening 1021, and the second limiting part 42 is a clamping opening arranged on the outer periphery of the end cover 32 and capable of clamping the elastic clamping block.Of course, the elastic clamping block can also be arranged on the outer periphery of the end cover 32, and correspondingly, the assembly opening 1021 can also be arranged in the clamping opening mode to achieve the above-mentioned effect.
