[0032] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an electric lifting pull-out basket for a cabinet includes a mounting bracket 1 installed in the middle of the cabinet and connected to the upper top plate and the lower bottom plate of the cabinet, and is characterized in that it also includes a movable bracket 2, and a hanging basket assembly 20 for carrying items is suspended on both sides of the movable bracket 2. The movable bracket 2 is connected to the mounting bracket 1 through a connecting rod 3, and also includes an electric drive mechanism 4 and a U-shaped drive mounting seat 40 for driving the movable bracket to rise and fall. The U-shaped drive mounting seat 40 is clamped and connected on both sides of the connecting rod, one end of the electric drive mechanism 40 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped drive mounting seat, and the other end of the electric drive mechanism is rotatably connected to the upper end of the mounting bracket 1.

[0035] The present invention designs a lifting pull-out basket for a cabinet, which is particularly suitable for a lifting pull-out basket installed in a wall cabinet. The electric drive mechanism drives the connecting rod to swing around the connection between the connecting rod and the mounting bracket. The swing of the connecting rod drives the movable bracket to descend and open and ascend and fold up, thereby realizing the extension and retraction of the pull-out basket from the wall cabinet. When the pull-out basket is extended, the space in the wall cabinet is displaced in the height direction. After the displacement, the height of the pull-out basket is reduced, and people can directly take items from the pull-out basket. The pull-out basket can make full use of the height of the wall cabinet, thereby realizing full use of the space in the wall cabinet. When folded up, the pull-out basket is retracted into the wall cabinet as a whole, without affecting the appearance of the wall cabinet. The electric drive mechanism in this embodiment is an electric push rod, which is a commonly used mechanism for telescopic movement in the prior art, and its specific structure is not elaborated here.

[0036] Furthermore, it also includes a second connecting rod 30, which is arranged parallel to the connecting rod 3. One end of the second connecting rod is connected to one end of the mobile bracket, and the other end is connected to the mounting bracket. The connecting rod and the second connecting rod form a parallelogram structure, which improves the stability of the mobile bracket during movement and prevents shaking, thereby ensuring that the items placed in the hanging basket assembly will not fall due to shaking.

[0037] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting bracket 1 includes a fixed bracket 10 fixedly connected to the lower base plate, and a movable bracket 11 that can be lifted up and down is provided in the fixed bracket, and the upper end of the movable bracket 11 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the upper top plate. During actual use, due to the different heights of the wall cabinets of each user, mounting brackets of the same specification cannot meet people's use needs; therefore, an adjustable mounting bracket consisting of a fixed bracket and a movable bracket is designed here. First, the fixed bracket is placed on the lower base plate of the cabinet, and then the telescopic length of the movable bracket relative to the fixed bracket is adjusted, so that the mounting bracket can adapt to wall cabinets of different heights and has better applicability.

[0038] Furthermore, combined Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the fixed bracket 10 is also provided with a locking unit 12 for locking the position of the movable bracket 11, and the locking unit is used to lock the position of the movable bracket relative to the fixed bracket. When the installer adjusts it to a suitable position, the position of the movable bracket is fixed by the locking unit, which is convenient for people to fix the installation bracket and the cabinet, and there is no need to apply external force to maintain the position of the movable bracket relative to the fixed bracket during the locking and fixing process; the locking unit 12 described in this embodiment includes a locking shaft 120, and the outer sleeve of the locking shaft 120 is provided with an eccentric roller 121 that rotates with the locking shaft, and the two ends of the locking shaft are threadedly connected with end caps 122, and the end caps are connected to the fixed bracket. The eccentric shaft includes a polygonal shaft body, and the two ends of the polygonal shaft body are respectively provided with circular connecting parts, which are threadedly connected to the end caps, and the eccentric roller is provided with a cavity that cooperates with the polygonal shaft body. The cooperation between the polygonal shaft body and the cavity enables the eccentric roller to rotate with the locking shaft. The polygonal shaft body is a commonly used quadrilateral or hexagonal shaft body.

[0039] Combined with Figure 3 The fixed bracket 10 includes a bottom plate 101 fixedly connected to the lower bottom plate, and a connecting hole connected to the lower bottom plate is provided on the bottom plate. A group of vertical plates 102 are provided on the bottom plate 101. The width of the lower end of the vertical plate 102 is greater than the width of the upper end. The design of reducing the width is adopted to form a make way space, which provides the space required for the electric drive mechanism to move during the movement of the pull-out basket and reduces movement interference. The upper end of the vertical plate 102 extends outward to form a connecting ear 103. The upper end of the electric drive mechanism 4 is rotatably connected to the connecting ear 103 through a pin shaft. The movable bracket 11 is placed in the space formed by the two vertical plates. The width of the lower end of the vertical plate is the same as the length of the bottom plate, and then it is reduced to be slightly wider than the width of the movable bracket, and it is suppressed to continue to the upper end of the vertical plate, and the rear end surface of the vertical plate is in close contact with the back plate of the cabinet. In order to improve the structural strength of the fixed bracket, a connecting plate can be provided between the two vertical plates and fixed by welding.

[0040] The movable bracket 11 includes an upper connecting plate 111, which is provided with a connecting hole connected to the upper top plate. A movable tube 112 is welded to the lower surface of the upper connecting plate. The movable tube 112 is connected to the fixed bracket for upward and downward telescopic adjustment. The movable tube can be in the space between the vertical plates of the fixed bracket.

[0041] The mobile bracket 2 includes a U-shaped mobile bracket body 21, which is formed by bending a plate.

[0042] A trigger unit 6 for triggering the action of the electric drive mechanism is provided on the mobile bracket 2 close to the user. The trigger unit is a switch module, which can be a button switch module, a touch switch module, an inductive switch module or other similar switch modules that generate on-off signals. When people press or touch the trigger unit, the electric drive mechanism works to drive the mobile bracket to extend outward. When people touch the trigger unit again, the electric drive mechanism works to retract the mobile bracket into the cabinet.

[0043] The mounting bracket 1 is internally provided with a power module 5 which can supply power to the electric drive mechanism independently or with an external power source. The power module has two functions: 1. As an energy storage unit, it stores a certain amount of electricity and can still provide the electric drive mechanism with the required electrical energy when the power is off, thus meeting people's needs for use during short-term power outages; 2. As an electric energy controller, it directly transmits external power to the electric drive mechanism.

[0044] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0045] 1. The present invention designs a lifting pull-out basket for a cabinet, which is electrically driven to move and automatically extend and retract the pull-out basket without the need for people to pull it, thereby improving the user experience and increasing the convenience of user use.

[0046] 2. The lifting pull-out basket described in the present invention fully utilizes the space in the wall cabinet, meets people's increasing storage needs, improves the utilization rate of the cabinet, and solves the problem of low utilization rate of wall cabinets in the prior art.
