In the description of the present invention, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0040] The present application proposes a fixing structure and a dishwasher, which can stably fix bottle containers when in use.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The dishwasher in one embodiment includes a fixing structure 10 and a bowl basket 20. The fixing structure 10 is fixed on the rack 600 in the bowl basket 20. The fixing structure 10 is used to fix the items to be cleaned 30. The items to be cleaned 30 may be bottle caps or pacifiers or other tableware with similar shapes and sizes. The bowl basket 20 is provided with a washing part. The fixing structure 10 drives the items to be cleaned 30 to the washing part, and the items are washed by water in the washing part.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 Specifically, in one embodiment, the fixing structure 10 includes a fixing member 100 and a driving mechanism, wherein the fixing member 100 is used to fix the to-be-cleaned object 30; the driving mechanism includes a driving assembly 200 and a locking member 300, and the driving assembly 200 is connected to the fixing member 100. The driving assembly 200 includes a first state and a second state.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, the driving assembly 200 moves under the first force and drives the fixing member 100 to move in the direction close to the cleaning portion until the driving assembly 200 is locked with the locking member 300, and the locking member 300 is used to limit the driving assembly 200 from continuing to move so that the part to be cleaned 30 is fixed to the cleaning portion; wherein, the first force can be directly applied to the driving assembly 200 by the user, or applied through a corresponding power device.

[0044] The locking member 300 is arranged on the moving path of the driving component 200. At this time, when the driving component 200 drives the fixing member 100 to move toward the direction close to the cleaning part, when the fixing member 100 sets the part to be cleaned 30 in the cleaning part, the driving component 200 can be locked with the locking member 300, so that the part to be cleaned 30 is fixed in the cleaning part.

[0045] There are many ways for the fixing member 100 to fix the object to be cleaned 30, such as clamping the object to be cleaned 30, or pressing the cleaning part onto the cleaning part by cooperating with the cleaning part. Figure 2 and Figure 5 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 Two ways of fixing the item to be cleaned 30 by the fixing member 100 are shown. Figure 2 The fixing member 100 in the embodiment is similar to a pressure cover. When the object to be cleaned 30 is a milk bottle cap, Figure 2 The fixing member 100 is fixed; Figure 5 The fixing member 100 is similar to a clamping claw. When the object 30 to be cleaned is a pacifier, it can be cleaned by Figure 5 The fixing member 100 is used for fixing.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 6 When the driving assembly 200 is in the second state, the driving assembly 200 is unlocked from the locking member 300 under the second force, and the driving assembly 200 drives the fixing member 100 to move in a direction away from the cleaning portion. The second force may be directly applied to the driving assembly 200 by a user, or applied by a corresponding power device. The unlocking between the driving assembly 200 and the locking member 300 may be the separation of the driving assembly 200 and the locking member 300.

[0047] It can be seen that the working principle of the above dishwasher is: the parts to be cleaned 30 are fixed by the fixing member 100, and the driving assembly 200 is connected to the fixing member 100. When the parts to be cleaned 30 need to be cleaned, a first force is applied to the driving assembly 200. At this time, the driving assembly 200 moves under the first force and drives the fixing member 100 to move in the direction close to the cleaning part until the driving assembly 200 and the locking member 300 are locked and matched. At this time, the parts to be cleaned 30 can be cleaned in the cleaning part, and the locking member 300 can limit the driving assembly 200 from continuing to move so that the parts to be cleaned 30 are fixed to the cleaning part, thereby improving the stability of the parts to be cleaned 30 in the cleaning part. When cleaning is completed or no cleaning is required, the driving assembly 200 is unlocked from the locking member 300 under the second force, and the driving assembly 200 drives the fixing member 100 to move in the direction away from the cleaning part. At this time, when cleaning is not required or cleaning is completed, the fixing member 100 can be folded, thereby saving space in the cleaning part.

[0048] There are many ways for the driving component 200 to drive the fixing member 100 to move closer to or away from the cleaning portion. For example, the driving component 200 may drive the fixing member 100 to move by rotation, or the driving component 200 may drive the fixing member 100 to move by linear motion.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 Specifically, in one embodiment, the driving mechanism further includes a mounting seat 400, one end of the driving component 200 is connected to the fixing member 100, and the other end of the driving component 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 400. The driving component 200 drives the fixing member 100 to move relative to the cleaning portion by rotating relative to the mounting seat 400.

[0050] For details, please refer to Figure 4 When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, the driving assembly 200 rotates relative to the mounting seat 400 under the first force and drives the fixing member 100 to move in a direction close to the cleaning portion until the driving assembly 200 is locked and matched with the locking member 300;

[0051] For details, please refer to Figure 6 When the driving assembly 200 is in the second state, the driving assembly 200 rotates relative to the mounting seat 400 under the second force and separates from the locking member 300, and the driving assembly 200 drives the fixing member 100 to move in a direction away from the cleaning portion.

[0052] The structure of the driving component 200 for driving the fixed part 100 to move relative to the cleaning part can also be various. For example, the driving component 200 can be a "connecting rod mechanism", which is connected to the fixed part 100 through the connecting rod mechanism. The connecting rod mechanism rotates relative to the mounting seat 400 under the action of external force, thereby driving the fixed part 100 to move, and limiting the rotation of the rod in the "connecting rod mechanism" by the locking member 300 to limit the connecting rod mechanism from continuing to drive the fixed part 100 to rotate; or the driving component 200 itself has a structure similar to a "rocker arm", which is connected to the fixed part 100 through a rocker arm, and the rocker arm is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 400. The rocker arm drives the fixed part 100 to move by rotating relative to the mounting seat 400, and limiting the rotation of the rocker arm by the locking member 300 to limit the rocker arm from continuing to drive the fixed part 100 to rotate.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 The locking member 300 includes a mounting body 310 and a locking body 320 connected to the mounting body 310. The mounting body 310 and the locking body 320 form an angle, and the mounting body 310 is fixed to the mounting seat 400. Please refer to Figure 4 At least part of the driving assembly 200 is disposed between the mounting seat 400 and the locking body 320. When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, at least part of the driving assembly 200 will interfere with and lock the locking body 320 when rotating relative to the mounting seat 400. At this time, the locking body 320 restricts the driving assembly 200 from continuing to rotate, thereby restricting the fixing member 100 from continuing to drive the cleaning member 30 to move.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 Specifically in one embodiment, the driving assembly 200 includes a driving rod 210, a connecting rod 220 and a pressure rod 230. One end of the driving rod 210 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 400, the other end of the driving rod 210 is rotatably connected to one end of the connecting rod 220, one end of the pressure rod 230 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 400, the other end of the pressure rod 230 is connected to the fixing member 100, and the other end of the connecting rod 220 is rotatably connected to the parts of the pressure rod 230 located at both ends.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 4 When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, the driving rod 210 rotates relative to the mounting seat 400 under the first force and drives the connecting rod 220 to rotate, the connecting rod 220 drives the pressure rod 230 to rotate, and the pressure rod 230 drives the fixing member 100 to move in the direction close to the cleaning portion until the driving rod 210 and the locking member 300 are locked and matched. In this way, the driving rod 210, the connecting rod 220 and the pressure rod 230 are linked, so that the pressure rod 230 drives the fixing member 100 to move in the direction close to the cleaning portion.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 4 When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, the driving rod 210 is locked with the locking member 300, and the angle between the driving rod 210 and the connecting rod 220 is a, wherein 0°<a≤180°. Optionally, a can be 20°, 90°, 120°, 165° and 180°.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 4 When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, when the driving rod 210 and the connecting rod 220 rotate relative to each other, the driving rod 210 and the connecting rod 220 will be in a mutually collinear position in one stage. At this time, the driving rod 210 and the connecting rod 220 are in a "dead point position". No matter how much force is applied to the pressure rod 230, the connecting rod 220 and the driving rod 210 cannot be driven to rotate. Since when the driving rod 210 and the connecting rod 220 are in the dead point position, it is still an unstable state. Therefore, when in use, under the action of the first force, the driving rod 210 continues to drive the connecting rod 220 to rotate, crossing the "dead point position", so that the driving rod 210 and the locking member 300 are limited and matched, and the limit rod limits the driving rod 210 from continuing to rotate. At this time, the driving rod 210 and the connecting rod 220 form an angle a. Even when the dishwasher is working, under the impact and vibration of water, the cleaning object 30 exerts a reaction force on the fixing member 100, and the fixing member 100 also exerts a force on the pressing rod 230, so that the driving rod 210 and the locking body 320 are limited and matched, and then the driving rod 210 and the locking body 320 reach a locked state. Among them, under the first force, the driving rod 210 rotates in the first direction, and the first direction is as follows. Figure 4 The L1 direction in .

[0058] Please refer to Figure 6 When the driving assembly 200 is in the second state, the driving rod 210 rotates relative to the mounting seat 400 under the second force and separates from the locking member 300, and the driving rod 210 drives the connecting rod 220 to rotate, the connecting rod 220 drives the pressing rod 230 to rotate, and the pressing rod 230 drives the fixing member 100 to move in a direction away from the cleaning portion. Figure 6 The L2 direction in .

[0059] Please refer to Figure 4 When the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, at least part of the driving rod 210 will rotate to be set between the mounting seat 400 and the locking body 320. In this way, when the driving rod 210 continues to rotate relative to the mounting seat 400, it will conflict with the locking body 320. At this time, the locking body 320 restricts the driving rod 210 from continuing to rotate, thereby restricting the fixing member 100 from continuing to drive the cleaning object 30 to move.

[0060] It should be noted that the first force and the second force may act directly on the driving rod 210 , or may be transmitted to the driving rod 210 via an intermediate transmission member.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 3 The washing part is a rack 600 in the bowl basket 20, and the mounting seat 400 is engaged with the rack 600. Optionally, the mounting seat 400 is provided with a slot 410 engaged with the rack 600. In other embodiments, the mounting seat 400 can also be fixed to the rack 600 by screws or welding.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 Specifically, in one embodiment, the driving assembly 200 includes a handle 240, and the handle 240 is connected to the driving rod 210 for driving the driving rod 210 to rotate. During use, the first force is applied to the driving rod 210 through the handle 240; please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 When the first force is applied to the driving rod 210 through the handle 240, the rotation direction of the driving rod 210 is a first direction. Figure 2 and Figure 4 Please refer to L1 in Figure 2 The locking member 300 restricts the driving assembly 200 from continuing to move, and at this time, the part to be cleaned 30 cannot move relative to the cleaning part, and is thus fixed on the cleaning part.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 6 In this embodiment, the driving assembly 200 includes a handle 240. During use, the handle 240 applies a second force to the driving rod 210; please refer to Figure 6 When the second force is applied to the driving rod 210 through the handle 240, the rotation direction of the driving rod 210 is the second direction. Figure 6 When the driving rod 210 rotates in the second direction, the locking member 300 is separated from the driving rod 210, and the locking member 300 and the driving rod 210 are unlocked, and the pressing rod 230 drives the fixing member 100 to leave the cleaning portion.

[0064] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, when the driving assembly 200 is in the first state, the fixing member 100 is spaced apart from the cleaning portion to form a clamping portion, so that the object to be cleaned 30 is fixed at the clamping portion.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5, the driving mechanism also includes an elastic body 500, one end of the elastic body 500 is connected to the fixing member 100, and the other end of the elastic body 500 is connected to the pressure rod 230, and the fixing member 100 adjusts the spacing of the fixing member 100 relative to the cleaning part by squeezing or stretching the elastic body 500. In this way, when facing the parts to be cleaned 30 of different sizes, the spacing between the fixing member 100 and the cleaning part can be adjusted by compressing or stretching the elastic body 500, so that the parts to be cleaned 30 of different sizes can be clamped. Further, the elastic body 500 will exert a force on the pressure rod 230 to drive the pressure rod 230 away from the cleaning part. Under this force, the pressure rod 230 has a tendency to drive the connecting rod 220 to rotate so that the connecting rod 220 drives the driving rod 210 to lift the locking member 300. At this time, under the limiting effect of the locking member 300, the fixing member 100 is always fixed on the cleaning part, achieving a "self-locking" effect. Furthermore, the dishwasher cannot exert a downward force on the handle 240 during operation, and the pressing force of the elastic body 500 also prevents the drive assembly 200 from being loosened due to vibration. When the lock needs to be released, only by exerting a second force on the handle 240 can the connecting rod 220 and the driving rod 210 pass the dead point again.

[0066] Optionally, the elastic body 500 may be a spring.

[0067] For further information, please refer to Figure 5 One end of the fixing member 100 includes a guide portion 110 and a fixing portion 120 connected to the guide portion 110, the fixing portion 120 is used to fix the to-be-cleaned part 30, the other end of the pressing rod 230 is provided with a mounting hole, the guide portion 110 is movably inserted in the mounting hole, the elastic body 500 is sleeved on the guide portion 110, one end of the elastic body 500 is connected to the fixing portion 120, and the other end of the elastic body 500 is connected to the pressing rod 230. In this way, the guide function of the guide portion 110 facilitates the change of the distance between the fixing member 100 and the cleaning part.

[0068] For further information, please refer to Figure 2 One end of the elastic body 500 is connected to the guide part 110, and the other end of the elastic body 500 is connected to the pressing rod 230. In this way, when in use, the distance between the fixing part 120 and the cleaning part can be changed by squeezing or stretching the elastic body 500.

[0069] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 When the part to be cleaned 30 also includes a milk bottle body, the milk bottle body can be turned upside down at the position where the driving rod 210 and the handle 240 are located, so that each part of the milk bottle can be cleaned separately at one time, which is convenient to use.
