Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bathroom cabinets, and more particularly to a bathroom cabinet for high humidity sterilization. Background Technology

[0002] In modern home life, bathroom vanities are an indispensable functional piece of furniture in the bathroom. Through the design of multiple drawers, shelves and mirror cabinets, they enable the classified storage of toiletries, cosmetics and cleaning tools, which not only improves the utilization of space, but also effectively reduces the clutter on the countertop. Hidden storage further enhances the visual sense of cleanliness.

[0003] However, existing bathroom vanities generally suffer from numerous problems in high-humidity environments. Bathrooms, being spaces with consistently high humidity, allow moisture to easily seep into the cabinet through door gaps, causing varying degrees of damage to different materials. For wooden bathroom vanities, in a continuously humid environment, the moisture content of untreated solid wood vanities can increase by more than 15% within 48 hours, eventually leading to swelling, deformation, and even cracking, thus affecting the door's closing performance. Furthermore, long-term water stains can damage the surface coating (such as paint or veneer), exposing the substrate and accelerating corrosion. Metal vanities may rust, severely impacting their lifespan and appearance. Even more seriously, when the humidity inside the cabinet exceeds 70%, mold can rapidly proliferate within 48 hours, producing unpleasant odors and posing a potential threat to human health. Simultaneously, traditional bathroom vanities lack effective moisture-proofing and antibacterial measures, failing to meet users' needs in high-humidity environments.

[0004] Based on the above situation, there is an urgent need for a high-humidity sterilization bathroom cabinet that can effectively solve problems such as moisture intrusion, mold growth, and cabinet damage, so as to improve the adaptability of bathroom cabinets in high-humidity environments. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing bathroom cabinets, such as susceptibility to moisture erosion, cabinet damage, and mold growth in high humidity environments, the technical problem is to provide a bathroom cabinet for high humidity sterilization.

[0006] The technical implementation scheme of the present invention is as follows: a high humidity sterilization bathroom cabinet includes a bathroom cabinet body, which is mainly composed of a cabinet body, a countertop, a basin, a faucet, and a drainage system. The cabinet body is provided with an assembly compartment and a storage compartment. The storage compartment has symmetrically arranged cavities, and each cavity is provided with a drawer. The bottom of the countertop is fixedly connected with symmetrically distributed telescopic components. A U-shaped wiping rack is fixedly connected between the telescopic parts of each telescopic component. Multiple wiping blocks are fixedly connected to the inner side of the rack. The wiping blocks are in contact with the outer wall of the bathroom cabinet body.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the countertop of the main body of the bathroom cabinet, except for the side against the wall, is equipped with rollers on the other three sides by a rotating connection. Each roller is connected to the countertop by a first torsion spring. The first torsion springs are symmetrically distributed at both ends of the rollers and wound around the adjacent rollers. Each roller is wound with a shielding film, and its movable end is fixedly connected to a connecting frame. The connecting frame is further fixedly connected to the adjacent wiping rack.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a symmetrically distributed fixed frame is fixedly attached to the countertop of the main body of the bathroom cabinet, and a motor is installed on each of the fixed frames. The output shaft of each motor is fixedly connected to a screw through a coupling, and the bottom end of the screw is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the assembly compartment of the main body of the bathroom cabinet. A sliding frame is threadedly connected to each screw, and a steel wire rope is connected between the wiping frame and the sliding frame.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each assembly compartment is provided with symmetrically distributed rollers, and the wire rope passes over the adjacent rollers.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each sliding shelf is fixedly connected to a first rack, and the side wall of the storage compartment of the main body of the bathroom cabinet is provided with symmetrically distributed transmission gears. The side wall of the storage compartment of the main body of the bathroom cabinet is fixedly connected to a locking member on the side near the transmission gear, and a one-way gear is rotatably connected to each of the locking members. The one-way gear is rotatably connected to the adjacent transmission gear, and a second torsion spring is connected between the one-way gear and the adjacent transmission gear, which is respectively wound around the adjacent transmission gear. The outer side of each drawer is fixedly connected to a symmetrically distributed second rack, and the side wall of the storage compartment of the main body of the bathroom cabinet is rotatably connected to a gear set on the side near the second rack.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the outer gear of the gear set meshes with the adjacent transmission gear, the inner gear meshes with the adjacent second rack, and the first rack meshes with the adjacent one-way gear, forming a highly efficient gear transmission system.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the main body of the bathroom cabinet is fixed to the wall by a bracket, and is suspended.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, ultraviolet lamps are installed on the top walls of each cavity.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages: First, it quickly wipes away water droplets adhering to the cabinet surface and the outside of the drawers using a wiping block, effectively reducing the impact of humid environments on the cabinet and avoiding problems such as wood expansion and metal corrosion, thus significantly extending its service life. At the same time, it uses a motor, screw, and sliding frame to control the unfolding and rewinding of the shielding film, achieving automatic shielding in high humidity environments and protecting the cabinet from water damage. The combination of these two features makes it convenient to operate and fully functional, making it particularly suitable for special scenarios such as bathrooms, greatly improving the durability and applicability of bathroom cabinets.

[0015] This invention achieves automatic drawer closing through a gear transmission system, ensuring a flat cabinet surface and guaranteeing the normal operation of the wiping rack and masking film functions. Utilizing the torsional energy storage and reset characteristics of the second torsion spring, drawers are returned to their positions layer by layer, ensuring stable and reliable operation. Simultaneously, the cabinet protection function prevents the solid wood from absorbing water and swelling or the metal from rusting, significantly extending its service life. Furthermore, ultraviolet sterilization during ventilation ensures the hygiene and safety of stored items, combining practicality and safety. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Example 1: A high-humidity sterilization bathroom cabinet, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, the bathroom includes a main body 1, which is mainly composed of a cabinet, countertop, basin, faucet, and drainage system. The countertop is generally made of materials such as ceramic, marble, artificial stone, and quartz stone to ensure good waterproof performance and durability. The cabinet is equipped with assembly compartments and storage compartments to rationally allocate internal space. The storage compartments have symmetrical cavities, and each cavity is equipped with drawers 11 for storing toiletries, cosmetics, cleaning tools, and other items.

[0025] The bottom of the countertop is fixed with symmetrically distributed telescopic components 16, and a return spring (built-in, not shown) is connected between the telescopic part and the fixed part to provide elastic support and ensure the device resets; a U-shaped wiping rack 15 is fixed between the telescopic parts of each telescopic component 16, and multiple wiping blocks 151 are fixed on the inner side of the rack. The wiping blocks 151 are in contact with the outer wall of the bathroom cabinet body 1, and can effectively wipe away water stains adhering to the surface of the bathroom cabinet and the outside of the drawer 11 during use, keeping the bathroom cabinet clean.

[0026] Each cavity is equipped with an ultraviolet lamp on its top wall. The short-wave ultraviolet light emitted by the lamp destroys the DNA or RNA structure of bacteria and viruses, thereby achieving efficient sterilization of the items in drawer 11. This effectively protects the user's health and hygiene, and is especially suitable for sterilization needs in high humidity environments.

[0027] In high-humidity environments, especially in bathrooms without partitions, the water sprayed from the showerhead can easily leave a large amount of water residue on the outside of the bathroom vanity. For wooden bathroom vanities, prolonged exposure to moisture can cause the cabinet to swell, deform, or even crack, and accelerate the corrosion of surface coatings (such as paint or veneer). For metal bathroom vanities, rust may occur, seriously affecting their lifespan and appearance.

[0028] The main body of the bathroom cabinet 1 is fixed to the wall by a bracket, forming a suspended shape, which effectively prevents ground moisture from corroding the bottom of the cabinet and facilitates floor cleaning. After showering, the user can manually pull down the wiping rack 15, causing multiple wiping blocks 151 fixed on the inside to move downwards, quickly removing water stains adhering to the surface of the main body of the bathroom cabinet 1 and the outside of the drawer 11. During this process, the telescopic part of the telescopic component 16 extends downwards, and its built-in return spring deforms to provide elastic support. After wiping is completed, the wiping rack 15 is released, the return spring releases its elasticity, and the wiping rack 15 and wiping blocks 151 automatically return to their initial positions.

[0029] In a public bathhouse environment, due to the extended shower time, the main body of the bathroom cabinet (1) is exposed to water for a considerable period. This continuous water exposure can cause deformation and corrosion of the wooden or metal cabinet, severely impacting its lifespan and appearance. Therefore, a covering mechanism is needed to effectively protect the cabinet from water damage during the shower.

[0030] Specifically, except for the side against the wall, the countertop of the main body 1 of the bathroom cabinet is equipped with a roller 12 on the other three sides by a rotating connection. Each roller 12 is connected to the countertop by a first torsion spring 14. The first torsion spring 14 is symmetrically distributed at both ends of the roller 12 and wound around the adjacent roller 12 to provide elastic support. Each roller 12 is wound with a shielding film 13, and its movable end is fixedly connected to a connecting frame 1301. The connecting frame 1301 is further fixedly connected to the adjacent wiping rack 15, thereby realizing linkage control.

[0031] As the wiping rack 15 moves the wiping block 151 downwards, the connecting frame 1301 moves downwards simultaneously. Through the traction of the connecting frame 1301, the masking film 13 is gradually released from the roller 12 and unfolds downwards, eventually completely covering the outer side of the bathroom cabinet body 1. During this process, the roller 12 releases the masking film 13 simultaneously, ensuring its smooth unfolding. The first torsion spring 14 undergoes torsional deformation due to the rotation of the roller 12, storing elasticity. During showering, water flows onto the outer surface of the unfolded masking film 13, effectively preventing water from directly contacting the cabinet, thus keeping the cabinet dry and extending its service life.

[0032] After showering, open the windows for ventilation. When no water remains on the outer surface of the masking film 13, release the wiping rack 15. Under the elastic force of the return spring, the wiping rack 15 moves the wiping block 151 and the connecting frame 1301 upwards to reset. At the same time, the first torsion spring 14 releases its elastic force, driving the roller 12 to rotate in the opposite direction. The roller 12 automatically rewinds the masking film 13, restoring it to its initial state. After rewinding, the bathroom cabinet body 1 is in a ventilated state, preventing moisture from remaining on the cabinet surface and further reducing the impact of a humid environment on the cabinet.

[0033] The main body 1 of the bathroom cabinet has symmetrically distributed fixed frames 2 fixedly attached to its surface. Each frame is equipped with a motor 17. The output shaft of each motor 17 is fixedly connected to a screw 18 via a coupling. The bottom end of the screw 18 is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the assembly compartment of the main body 1 of the bathroom cabinet to achieve smooth rotation. Each screw 18 is threadedly connected to a sliding frame 19. A steel wire rope 110 is connected between the wiping frame 15 and the sliding frame 19 to transmit driving force. Each assembly compartment is equipped with symmetrically distributed rollers 111. The steel wire rope 110 passes over the adjacent rollers 111 to change the direction of force transmission and ensure stable movement trajectory.

[0034] When the user needs to use the shielding film 13 to cover the outside of the bathroom cabinet body 1, the output shaft of the control motor 17 drives the screw 18 to rotate through the coupling, thereby driving the sliding frame 19 to move downward along its axis. The downward movement of the sliding frame 19 is transmitted to the wiping frame 15 through the wire rope 110, realizing the remote transmission of force.

[0035] During this process, the wire rope 110 passes over the roller 111, and the roller 111 rotates as the wire rope 110 moves, changing the direction of force transmission and ensuring a stable trajectory. The wiping rack 15 moves downward synchronously under the traction of the wire rope 110, and drives the shielding film 13 to unfold downward through the connecting frame 1301, ultimately completely covering the outside of the cabinet.

[0036] When the need for shielding ends, the control motor 17 drives the screw 18 to rotate in the opposite direction, the sliding frame 19 moves upward along the screw 18 to reset, the wire rope 110 loosens, and the wiping frame 15 returns to its initial position under the action of the return spring. At the same time, the shielding film 13 is rolled back to its initial state through the connecting frame 1301. After the film is rolled back, the main body of the bathroom cabinet 1 is in a ventilated state to prevent moisture from remaining on the cabinet surface and further reduce the impact of the humid environment on the cabinet.

[0037] In the high humidity of a bathroom, water droplets will adhere to the surface of the cabinet. In this embodiment, the wiping block 151 quickly wipes away the water droplets adhering to the cabinet surface and the outside of the drawer 11, effectively reducing the impact of the humid environment on the cabinet, avoiding problems such as wood expansion and metal corrosion, and significantly extending its service life. When showering in the bathroom, the motor 17, screw 18, and sliding frame 19 work together to control the unfolding and retraction of the shielding film 13, achieving automatic shielding in the shower environment and protecting the cabinet from water damage. The combination of these two features makes operation convenient and comprehensive, especially suitable for special scenarios such as bathhouses, greatly improving the durability and applicability of the bathroom cabinet.

[0038] Example 2: When a user takes an item from drawer 11 but does not fully push it back into the bathroom cabinet body 1, drawer 11 will protrude outwards, causing unevenness on the front of the cabinet. This condition hinders the wiping rack 15 from moving downwards to wipe the cabinet surface and also prevents the masking film 13 from unfolding smoothly to protect the cabinet. Therefore, when the wiping rack 15 moves down to wipe or the masking film 13 unfolds to protect the cabinet, the partially pushed-back drawer 11 needs to be automatically returned to its original position to ensure the normal operation of the cabinet surface wiping and masking functions, and to avoid affecting the overall operation due to the protruding drawer 11.

[0039] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, specifically, each sliding frame 19 is fixedly connected to a first rack 3, and the side wall of the storage compartment of the bathroom cabinet body 1 is provided with symmetrically distributed transmission gears 31. Each transmission gear 31 is pivotally connected to the side wall of the storage compartment through a rotating shaft. The side wall of the storage compartment of the bathroom cabinet body 1 is fixedly connected to a locking member 311 on the side near the transmission gear 31, and a one-way gear 312 is rotatably connected to it for working in coordination with the transmission gear 31.

[0040] The one-way gear 312 is rotatably connected to the adjacent rotating shaft. A second torsion spring 313 is connected between the one-way gear 312 and the adjacent transmission gear 31, which is wound around the adjacent rotating shaft to ensure stable linkage between the transmission gear 31 and the one-way gear 312.

[0041] Each drawer 11 has a symmetrically distributed second rack 33 fixedly attached to its outer side. The side wall of the storage compartment of the bathroom cabinet body 1 is rotatably connected to a gear set 32 ​​on the side near the second rack 33. The gear on the outer side meshes with the adjacent transmission gear 31, and the gear on the inner side meshes with the adjacent second rack 33, forming a highly efficient gear transmission system.

[0042] In addition, the first rack 3 meshes with the adjacent one-way gear 312 to ensure that during the up-and-down movement of the sliding frame 19, the transmission gear 31, the gear set 32 ​​and the second rack 33 can be driven in conjunction through the gear transmission system, thereby realizing the automatic push-close function of the drawer 11.

[0043] When the sliding frame 19 moves downward, the first rack 3 fixed to it moves downward synchronously. When the lowered first rack 3 meshes with the one-way gear 312, the one-way gear 312 begins to rotate counterclockwise. Due to the sufficient elasticity of the second torsion spring 313, the one-way gear 312 drives the transmission gear 31 to rotate counterclockwise synchronously through the second torsion spring 313. During this process, the transmission gear 31 meshes with the outer gear of the gear set 32, pushing the gear set 32 ​​to rotate clockwise. The inner gear of the gear set 32 ​​meshes with the second rack 33 fixed to the outer side of the drawer 11, thereby driving the drawer 11 to move inward, and finally pushing the drawer 11 back to its original position.

[0044] Since the position of drawer 11 when pulled out is random, if the upper drawer 11 only protrudes slightly, the pushing distance is shorter. During the downward movement of the first rack 3, the upper drawer 11 will be pushed into the bathroom cabinet body 1 first. When the upper drawer 11 is fully returned to its original position, the second rack 33 reaches its travel limit, the gear set 32 ​​stops rotating, and the transmission gear 31 can no longer rotate. At this time, the first rack 3 and the one-way gear 312 are still meshed, the one-way gear 312 rotates freely relative to the transmission gear 31, and the second torsion spring 313 stores energy through torsion.

[0045] When the first rack 3 moves downward and disengages from the upper one-way gear 312, the one-way gear 312 rotates in the opposite direction to reset under the reset action of the second torsion spring 313, preparing for the push-in of the next level. As the first rack 3 continues to move downward, it meshes with the lower one-way gear 312 in sequence, repeating the above push-in action until all drawers 11 are pushed back to their original positions.

[0046] When the sliding rack 19 moves to its lowest point, the wiping rack 15 also moves down to its lowest point, and the shielding film 13 fully unfolds to cover the cabinet, protecting it. At this time, the cabinet surface is protected from direct water exposure, effectively preventing the solid wood cabinet from absorbing water and swelling or the metal cabinet from rusting, significantly extending the cabinet's lifespan.

[0047] After showering and once the bathroom moisture has dissipated, when ventilation of the cabinet is needed, the sliding bracket 19 moves upward to its original position, causing the first rack 3 to move upward simultaneously. At this time, the one-way gear 312 remains stationary, and the transmission system no longer participates in the operation. Users can periodically turn on the ultraviolet lamp to sterilize the items inside the drawer 11, ensuring the hygiene and safety of stored items and improving the user experience.

[0048] This embodiment achieves automatic pushing and closing of drawer 11 through a gear transmission system, ensuring a flat cabinet surface and guaranteeing the normal operation of the wiping rack 15 and the shielding film 13. Utilizing the torsional energy storage and reset characteristics of the second torsion spring 313, drawer 11 is returned to its position layer by layer, ensuring stable and reliable operation. At the same time, the cabinet protection function prevents the solid wood from absorbing water and swelling or the metal from rusting, significantly extending its service life. In addition, ultraviolet sterilization during ventilation ensures the hygiene and safety of stored items, combining practicality and safety.

[0049] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of the present invention specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
