Abstract

A cooling appliance, contains a water path component for supplying water and a circuit component for supplying electricity or transmitting a control signal. An isolation component is disposed between the water path component and the circuit component to mechanically isolate the water path component from the circuit component. The isolation component is disposed between the water path component and the circuit component, so that when water is leaked from the water path component, the leaked water is blocked by the isolation component from spraying and scattering or from splashing to the circuit component, avoiding adverse consequences of electric leakage or short circuits caused by undesired contact between the circuit component and the water.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A cooling appliance, comprising:
 a water path component for supplying water;   a circuit component for supplying electricity or transmitting a control signal; and   an isolation component disposed between said water path component and said circuit component to mechanically isolate said water path component from said circuit component.   
     
     
         2 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 1 , wherein said isolation component is a cover for at least partially covering said circuit component. 
     
     
         3 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 2 , wherein said cover at least covers a part or a surface of said circuit component that may be in contact with the water leaked from said water path component. 
     
     
         4 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 2 , further comprising a guide mechanism, said cover is slidably installed on said circuit component by using said guide mechanism, and said guide mechanism has a guide rib and a guide slot formed therein that cooperate with each other. 
     
     
         5 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 1 , wherein said isolation component is configured as a housing for at least partially surrounding said water path component. 
     
     
         6 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 5 , wherein said water path component contains a valve body and a water pipe connected to said valve body, said housing at least surrounds a part connecting said valve body and said water pipe. 
     
     
         7 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 6 , wherein said valve body contains a functional valve and a check valve, said check valve is serially connected to said functional valve by using said water pipe. 
     
     
         8 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 5 , wherein said housing contains a first housing and a second housing buckled with each other. 
     
     
         9 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 1 , wherein said circuit component is connected to an external power source. 
     
     
         10 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 1 , further comprising a cavity and said water path component and said circuit component are both disposed in said cavity. 
     
     
         11 . The cooling appliance according to  claim 10 ,
 further comprising a compressor, a fan, and a condenser;   wherein said cavity serves as a compressor compartment of the cooling appliance;   wherein said compressor, said fan, and said condenser are disposed in said compressor compartment; and   said circuit component is electrically connected to said compressor and said fan separately.
