Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of furniture technology, and in particular to an adjustable shoe rack. Background Technology

[0002] Shoe racks are common furniture used to store shoes in an orderly and centralized manner. Currently, common shoe racks include integral structures as well as simple assembly structures that can be folded for storage. These older assembled shoe rack structures can only be placed flat, and the angle of the shoes cannot be changed. Often, the toes of shoes on shoe racks leaning against the wall will directly touch the wall, leaving shoe prints. Moreover, they cannot be adjusted to adapt to the space of the actual use location, thus failing to save space. There is still room for improvement in practical application. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable shoe rack with multiple shoe placement angles, allowing for flexible setup and more convenient use.

[0004] An adjustable shoe rack includes a panel, connecting rods, outer rods, inner rods, and support rods. The panel has at least two layers. Each pair of panels has a set of outer rods and an inner rod connected to its left and right sides respectively. The midpoint of the outer rod is rotatably connected to the midpoint of the inner rod, and the outer rod is located outside the inner rod. The rear ends of two corresponding outer rods on the left and right sides of the panel are connected by a connecting rod. The rear ends of two corresponding inner rods on the left and right sides of the panel are also connected by a connecting rod. Furthermore, the rear ends of the upper set of inner rods and the lower set of outer rods between each pair of panels are simultaneously rotatably connected to a connecting rod. The front end of the upper panel in every two layers is rotatably connected to the front end of the inner rod. The front end of the lower panel in every two layers is rotatably connected to the front end of the outer rod. The front end of the inner rod of the upper group and the front end of the outer rod of the next group between every two layers are simultaneously rotatably connected to the front end of a panel. The rear ends of the outer rods on both sides of the uppermost panel are rotatably connected to a support rod. The left and right sides of the panel are respectively provided with downward inclined slots that can be detachably engaged with the support rods. The bottom rear end of the panel is provided with a flat recess that matches the connecting rod. A baffle is provided on the surface of the panel at or near the front end.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the baffle is rotatably connected to the surface of the panel, and the surface of the panel is provided with a recessed position that matches and accommodates the baffle.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the baffle is provided with a locking protrusion, and the rear inner wall of the recess is provided with a groove that matches the locking protrusion.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the left and right ends of the baffle are respectively rotatably connected to the left and right inner walls of the recess, and the front end of the recess is provided with a limiting step that matches and abuts against the bottom front end of the baffle.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the baffle is provided with a limiting protrusion that abuts against the recessed position, and the recessed position is provided with a locking protrusion that engages with the limiting protrusion.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the front end of the outer rod of the lowest group is also rotatably connected to the support rod.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the side wall of the support rod is provided with a limiting protrusion for engaging with the inner side of the outer rod, and the inner side of the outer rod is provided with a limiting groove.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a stop boss is provided on the inner side of the end of the outer rod, and a stop holder matching the stop boss is provided on the side wall of the support rod.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ends of the outer rod and the inner rod are connected with side rod nails, and the front sides of the panel, the rear end of the support rod and the two ends of the connecting rod are provided with connecting holes that match the side rod nails. The bottom front side of the panel and the bottom ends of the connecting rod are detachably mounted with nail heads, and the nail heads are provided with slots that match and connect with the ends of the side rod nails.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the support rod is detachably equipped with support feet that match the inclined bayonet.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the adjustable shoe rack of this invention has the following advantages: the outer rod and inner rod form a cross-telescopic connecting rod structure on the left and right sides of the panel. When the panel is adjusted to a horizontal position, the panel engages with the connecting rod through the flat notch, so the front and rear ends of each layer of the panel are stably supported by the outer rod and inner rod, allowing the shoes to be placed flat on the panel. When the rear end of the panel is tilted upwards and forwards, the support rod at the rear end of the uppermost outer rod is rotated out and engaged with the tilting latch, which supports the panel and the outer and inner rods to maintain an inclined position. With the help of the baffle, the shoes can be placed diagonally on the panel, and the baffle limits and prevents them from sliding down, thus stabilizing the shoe rack. The shoe rack is designed for storing shoes, and due to the characteristics of the cross-lifting linkage, its floor space is naturally reduced, thus minimizing space occupation. Furthermore, since both the panel and the shoes on it are tilted, it effectively prevents the toes of the shoes from touching the wall when the rack is close to it. When the rack is laid flat, the linkage supports and holds the rear end of the panel, while simultaneously forming a secure connection between the outer and inner rods on both sides, creating a movable and adjustable cross-lifting linkage. This is particularly important for maintaining the structural support when the rack is tilted. Moreover, this shoe rack can be configured with different numbers of layers to adapt to various usage needs, making it very flexible. The modular design of each component on each layer also effectively reduces costs. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the invention. It should be understood that the terms "first," "second," etc., are used in this invention to describe various information, but this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this invention, "first" information can also be referred to as "second" information, and similarly, "second" information can also be referred to as "first" information.

[0024] refer to Figure 1-6. An adjustable shoe rack according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a panel 1, a connecting rod 2, an outer rod 3, an inner rod 4, and a support rod 5. The panel 1 has at least two layers, upper and lower. Each pair of panels 1 has a set of cross-connected outer rods 3 and inner rods 4 connected to its left and right sides respectively. The midpoint of the outer rod 3 is rotatably connected to the midpoint of the inner rod 4, and the outer rod 3 is located on the outside of the inner rod 4 facing away from the panel 1. The rear ends of two corresponding outer rods 3 on the left and right sides of the panel 1 are connected by a connecting rod 2. The rear ends of two corresponding inner rods 4 on the left and right sides of the panel 1 are also connected by a connecting rod 2. The rear ends of the upper set of inner rods 4 between each pair of panels 1 are connected to... The rear end of the outer rod 3 in the next group is simultaneously rotatably connected to a connecting rod 2. The front end of the upper panel 1 in every two layers is rotatably connected to the front end of the inner rod 4. The front end of the lower panel 1 in every two layers is rotatably connected to the front end of the outer rod 3. The front end of the inner rod 4 in the previous group between every two layers and the front end of the outer rod 3 in the next group are simultaneously rotatably connected to the front end of a panel 1. The rear ends of the outer rods 3 on both sides of the uppermost panel 1 are rotatably connected to a support rod 5 located between the outer rod 3 and the connecting rod 2. The left and right sides of the panel 1 are respectively provided with downward-sloping latches 11 that can be detachably engaged with the front end of the support rod 5. The rear bottom side of panel 1 is provided with a flat recess 12 matching the connecting rod 2. A baffle 13 is provided on the surface of panel 1 at or near the front end. The outer rod 3 and the inner rod 4 form a cross telescopic connecting rod structure on the left and right sides of panel 1. When panel 1 is adjusted to a horizontal position, panel 1 engages with connecting rod 2 through the flat recess 12. Therefore, the front and rear ends of each layer of panel 1 are stably supported by the outer rod 3 and the inner rod 4, and the shoe can be placed flat on panel 1. When the rear end of panel 1 is tilted upward and forward, the support rod 5 at the rear end of the uppermost outer rod 3 is rotated out and engaged with the tilted locking slot 11, which can support panel 1 and outer rod 3 and inner rod 4 to maintain the tilted position. With the baffle 13, the shoe can be placed tilted on panel 1. The shoe rack uses baffle 13 to limit and prevent the shoes from sliding down, thus stabilizing the placement of shoes. Due to the characteristics of the cross lifting linkage, the shoe rack's floor area is naturally reduced, thus minimizing space occupation. Furthermore, since both panel 1 and the shoes on it are tilted, it also conveniently prevents the toes of the shoes from touching the wall when the shoe rack is close to the wall. When the linkage 2 is in the flat position, it can support and support the rear end of panel 1, while forming a cross lifting linkage that can be moved and adjusted by firmly connecting the outer rod 3 and inner rod 4 on both sides. In particular, it provides structural support when the rack is tilted. Moreover, this shoe rack can be configured with different numbers of layers as needed to adapt to different usage requirements, making it very flexible. In addition, the modular design of each component in each layer can effectively reduce costs.Furthermore, by retracting and folding the outer rod 3 and inner rod 4, combined with the separation of panel 1 and connecting rod 2, and the rotation of support rod 5 to overlap with outer rod 3, the entire shoe rack can be folded and stored efficiently, significantly reducing space usage.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 -4 and 6, for example, the front end of the baffle 13 is rotatably connected to the surface of the panel 1. The surface of the panel 1 is provided with a recess 14 that matches and accommodates the baffle 13. Therefore, when the panel 1 is in a flat position, the baffle 13 can be stored in the recess 14 and flush with the surface of the panel 1. When the baffle 13 is unfolded, it stands on the surface of the panel 1. When it is tilted, it still limits the placement of the shoes. It is flexible, convenient and space-saving. In addition, the baffle 13 can also be directly set as an arc-shaped, triangular, rectangular or other shaped protrusion to achieve the function of limiting and supporting the shoes.

[0026] refer to Figure 3 and 4 For example, the front end of the baffle 13 is provided with a locking protrusion 131, and the rear inner wall of the recess 14 is provided with a groove 141 that matches the locking protrusion 131. Thus, when the baffle 13 is retracted, the locking protrusion 131 protrudes into the groove 141 and engages, preventing the baffle 13 from falling out at will and affecting its use when placed flat on the shoe rack.

[0027] refer to Figure 3 For example, the left and right ends of the baffle 13 are rotatably connected to the left and right inner walls of the recess 14, respectively. The front end of the recess 14 is provided with a limiting step 145 that matches and abuts against the bottom side of the front end of the baffle 13. After the baffle 13 is opened, the front end of the baffle 13 rotates to the limiting step 145 and abuts against it with its bottom side, thereby limiting the angle at which the baffle 13 stands on the panel 1, so as to facilitate supporting the heel in the tilted position.

[0028] refer to Figure 3 and 4For example, the front side or lower front end of the baffle 13 is provided with a limiting protrusion 132 that abuts against the recessed position 14. The recessed position 14 is provided with a locking protrusion 143 that engages with the limiting protrusion 132. When the baffle 13 is to be rotated and stand upright on the panel 1, the limiting protrusion 132 can pass over the locking protrusion 143 by slight deformation, thus preventing the baffle 13 from falling back in its natural upright state, thereby achieving the limiting effect. However, only a slight reverse force is needed to push the baffle 13 back into the recessed position 14. Preferably, the left and right ends of the baffle 13 are respectively provided with insertion posts 133. The inner walls on the left and right sides of the recessed position 14 are respectively provided with insertion pin holes 142. By correspondingly inserting the insertion pin 133 into the insertion pin holes 142, the baffle 13 can rotate and open and close on the recessed position 14. Preferably, the front middle of the baffle 13 is also provided with a hinge shaft 134. The recessed position 14 is provided with a hook-shaped or arc-shaped hinge seat 144 that matches the hinge shaft 134. The cooperation between the hinge shaft 134 and the hinge seat 144 allows the front middle of the baffle 13 to also have rotational support and force support, thereby making the opening and closing of the baffle 13 smoother and the positioning support more stable.

[0029] refer to Figure 2 -5. For example, the front end of the support rod 5 is detachably equipped with a support foot nail 6 that matches the inclined slot 11. The end of the support foot nail 6 is inserted into the support rod 5 from the inside, and the front end of the support foot nail 6 is matched and snapped into the inclined slot 11 to form a support. Therefore, there is no need to set a snap-fit ​​part on the support rod 5, which simplifies the structure and avoids the difference in the left and right position structure. The midpoints of the outer rod 3 and the inner rod 4 in each group are also rotatably connected by the support foot nail 6. The support foot nail 6 passes through the outer rod 3 and the inner rod 4 from the outside of the outer rod 3 to realize the rotatable connection of the two rods. The top nail head of the support foot nail 6 can be rotatably engaged with the stepped hole at the midpoint of the outer rod 3. The end of the support foot nail 6 passes through the hinge hole at the midpoint of the inner rod 4 to form a rotation constraint. Preferably, the end of the support foot nail 6 is provided with a barb structure to facilitate direct insertion to fasten and constrain the outer rod 3 and the inner rod 4. In addition, two or more inclined slots 11 are respectively provided on both sides of the panel 1, so that two or more inclined states can be flexibly selected as needed.

[0030] refer to Figure 1 , 2 For example, the front end of the outer rod 3 of the lowest group is also rotatably connected to the support rod 5. When placed at an angle, the support rod 5 at the front end of the outer rod 3 of the lowest group is rotated and extended forward. By using its support to abut against the ground, the shoe rack can be supported more stably. This is because the shoe rack is unstable due to its high center of gravity and narrow contact point when placed at an angle. When placed flat, the top and bottom support rods 5 of the shoe rack can also be rotated and stored inside the outer rod 3.

[0031] refer to Figure 1 ,2 For example, as in 5 and 6, the side wall of the support rod 5 is provided with a limiting protrusion 51 that engages with the inner side of the outer rod 3, so that the support rod 5 can be well fixed when it is stored. The inner side of the front and rear sections of the outer rod 3 is preferably provided with a limiting groove 32. The limiting protrusion 51 is preferably a slightly convex strip structure. The concave shape of the limiting groove 32 matches and is perpendicular to the limiting protrusion 51. The limiting groove 32 on the front or rear section of the outer rod 3 is preferably distributed in two or more along the axial direction of the outer rod 3. When the support rod 5 is rotated to the position overlapping with the outer rod 3, the limiting protrusion 51 can fall into the limiting groove 32 to achieve micro-positioning. Only a light force is needed to drive the support rod 5 out again, which is convenient for operation.

[0032] refer to Figure 2 and 5 For example, the inner side of the end of the outer rod 3 is provided with a stop boss 31, and the rear side wall of the support rod 5 is provided with a stop seat 52 that matches the stop boss 31, so that the support rod 5 can be stably supported between the panel 1 and the outer rod 3 or between the ground and the outer rod 3 when rotated to the corresponding position.

[0033] refer to Figure 2 and 5 For example, the ends of the outer rod 3 and the inner rod 4 are connected to side rod nails 71. The side rod nails 71 are used to simultaneously rotatably connect the front end of the outer rod 3, the front end of the panel 1 and the front end of the inner rod 4 or the rear end of the support rod 5, or to simultaneously rotatably connect the rear end of the outer rod 3, the connecting rod 2 and the rear end of the inner rod 4 or the rear end of the support rod 5. The front ends of the panel 1, the rear end of the support rod 5 and the two ends of the connecting rod 2 are all provided with connecting holes that match the side rod nails 71. Nail heads 72 are detachably installed on the bottom front end of the panel 1 and the bottom ends of the connecting rod 2. The nail head 72 is provided with a slot that matches and connects to the end of the side rod nail 71. When the end of the side rod nail 71 passes through the connection hole of the panel 1 or the connecting rod 2, the nail head 72 can be installed on the panel 1 or the connecting rod 2 from the bottom side, and the slot of the nail head 72 can be used to lock and fix the end of the side rod nail 71, thereby forming a rotation constraint and preventing the side rod nail 71 from being directly detached along the axial direction. The assembly and disassembly are very convenient. Preferably, the side rod nail 71 is integrally formed on the inner side of the end of the outer rod 3, so that the outer rod 3 can be directly connected to the inner rod 4, the support rod 5, the connecting rod 2, and the panel 1 at the end during assembly.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
