Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of freezer technology, and specifically relates to sterilization freezers. Background Technology
[0002] A freezer is another name for a refrigerator or freezer cabinet. It is used to store items and prevent them from spoiling.
[0003] A sterilization freezer is a freezer that can sterilize the items stored inside. Most sterilization freezers are freezers with ultraviolet lamps installed on their inner walls. The ultraviolet rays irradiated by the ultraviolet lamps can kill bacteria on the items.
[0004] Existing sterilization freezers have internal trays for storing items. However, as items are placed, the tray space decreases. When the tray is full, items behind the tray are blocked by items in front of it. This means that when you need to remove items behind the tray, you have to move the items in front of it, making the whole process time-consuming, laborious, and inconvenient.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a sterilization-type freezer to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention addresses the problems of existing sterilization-type freezers and proposes the following technical solution:
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a sterilization-type freezer, comprising a freezer body, wherein both inner walls of the freezer body are provided with equally spaced grooves from top to bottom, and a sliding plate is slidably installed in the grooves, and a carrier plate is fixedly installed between two opposing sliding plates, and ultraviolet lamps are fixedly installed at the bottom of the carrier plate and the top wall of the freezer body, wherein a circular groove is provided at the center of the top of the carrier plate, and a frustum is rotatably installed in the circular groove, wherein a rectangular slot is provided at the center of the top of the frustum, a placement frame is provided above the frustum, and a rectangular block that mates with the rectangular slot is provided at the center of the bottom of the placement frame, and a groove is provided at the center of the front side of the carrier plate, wherein a pull groove is provided on the bottom wall of the groove.
[0008] In use, items can be placed in the placement frame, and the items are sterilized by ultraviolet light. The freezer body has a door on the front side. When you need to take out an item, you can open the freezer body door, put your hand in the pull groove and pull the carrier plate to make it move the truncated cone forward. This, in conjunction with the rectangular slot and rectangular block, moves the placement frame. When the placement frame moves halfway to the outside of the freezer body, you can rotate the placement frame to make it rotate the truncated cone in conjunction with the rectangular block and rectangular slot. By rotating the placement frame, the items located at the top and back of the placement frame can be rotated to the front, making it easier to retrieve the items located at the top and back of the placement frame.
[0009] Furthermore, a protective ring plate is provided inside the circular groove, the protective ring plate can slide up and down along the circular groove, the placement frame is located inside the protective ring plate and fits against the inner wall of the protective ring plate, and a lifting component for driving it to rise is provided on the outer side of the protective ring plate.
[0010] When the carrier plate and placement frame move forward, when half of the placement frame is about to move outside the freezer body, the lifting component drives the protective ring plate to rise, thus covering the items in the placement frame and protecting them. Since there are many items placed on the placement frame, they may be stacked. When rotating the placement frame to select items, items may be thrown off. The protective ring plate protects the items and prevents them from being thrown off when rotating the placement frame to select items.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a lifting plate symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the protective ring plate. The inner wall of the freezer body is provided with a horizontal slide that cooperates with the lifting plate. The inner wall of the freezer body and in front of the horizontal slide is provided with an arc-shaped slide that communicates with the horizontal slide. The peak of the arc-shaped slide is higher than the horizontal slide, and the end of the arc-shaped slide is flush with the horizontal slide.
[0012] When the carrier plate moves, it drives the protective ring plate to move, causing the lifting plate to move along the horizontal slide. As the lifting plate moves, it comes into contact with the arc-shaped slide, causing it to rise along with the protective ring plate. When the protective ring plate moves to the highest point, half of the placement frame is about to move to the outside of the freezer body. As the lifting plate continues to move, it eventually moves to the end of the arc-shaped slide, causing the protective ring plate to fall and reset. At this time, half of the protective frame is located outside the freezer body.
[0013] Furthermore, the placement frame is circular in shape, and rectangular holes are equidistantly arranged around the top of the placement frame. An L-shaped plate is slidably installed inside the rectangular holes, and the end of the L-shaped plate away from the rectangular holes is mounted on the top of the protective ring plate.
[0014] When the protective ring plate rises, it will press against the L-shaped plate as it rises. When the protective ring plate moves to its highest point, the L-shaped plate is still located inside the rectangular hole. At this time, the L-shaped plate can be rotated to drive the placement frame to rotate, so that the items inside can be selected. The protective ring plate is specifically designed as a transparent ring-shaped acrylic plate, which allows easy observation of the items inside.
[0015] Furthermore, the end of the L-shaped plate furthest from the rectangular hole will never come into contact with the lifting plate.
[0016] This allows the L-shaped plate to rotate freely without being affected by the lifting plate. The placement frame can be lifted so that the rectangular card block leaves the rectangular card slot, allowing the placement frame to be removed for cleaning.
[0017] Furthermore, a U-shaped groove is provided on the top front side of the carrier plate, and a U-shaped protective plate that slidably matches it is slidably installed inside the U-shaped groove. An extension component that drives the U-shaped protective plate to extend out of the U-shaped groove is provided on the outside of the U-shaped protective plate.
[0018] The carrier plate moves forward, causing the U-shaped protective plate to move accordingly. When half of the placement frame moves outside the freezer body, the extension component causes the U-shaped protective plate to extend out of the U-shaped groove. At this time, it can work with the inner wall of the freezer body to form a protective barrier. When items are taken out, it can block other items from sliding off and prevent them from falling to the outside. When the carrier plate retracts into the freezer body, the extension component cancels the extension of the U-shaped protective plate. At this time, the U-shaped protective plate returns to its original position and retracts into the U-shaped groove, so that the storage and retrieval of items are not affected by the U-shaped protective plate.
[0019] Furthermore, the extending assembly includes a connecting plate symmetrically fixedly installed on the front side of the carrier plate, a cylinder fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate, a pressure plate slidably installed inside the cylinder, the bottom of the pressure plate being fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the cylinder by a spring, a straight rod fixedly connected to the top of the pressure plate, the top of the straight rod being fixedly connected to a U-shaped protective plate by a horizontal plate, and an extrusion strip cooperating with the U-shaped protective plate being fixedly installed on the inner wall of the freezer body.
[0020] The U-shaped protective plate moves forward, at which point the remaining extrusion bars contact the U-shaped protective plate, and the spring is in a compressed state. As the U-shaped protective plate moves, when the protective ring plate descends, the spring continuously releases force, causing the pressure plate, straight rod, horizontal plate, and U-shaped protective plate to rise. When half of the placement frame moves outside the freezer body, the U-shaped protective plate stops at its highest point. When the carrier plate moves back into the freezer body, the U-shaped protective plate is continuously squeezed by the extrusion bars, causing it to descend. This causes the horizontal plate, straight rod, and pressure plate to descend, compressing the spring and causing it to deform and generate force. Finally, the U-shaped protective plate returns to its original position within the U-shaped groove.
[0021] Furthermore, the extrusion strip is made of stainless steel, the front side of the extrusion strip is bent upward, the top of the U-shaped protective plate abuts against the extrusion strip, and the two ends of the U-shaped protective plate away from the cylinder are located in front of the lifting plate.
[0022] As the protective ring plate descends, the two ends of the U-shaped protective plate away from the cylinder move along the curved section of the extrusion bar, causing the spring to continuously release force and drive the pressure plate, straight rod, horizontal plate, and U-shaped protective plate to rise. When the carrier plate returns to its original position, the U-shaped protective plate is squeezed by the curved section of the extrusion bar, causing it to continuously descend.
[0023] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows:
[0024] 1. This invention enables easy access to items located behind the placement frame without having to move items in front of them;
[0025] 2. This invention can protect items while selecting items behind the placement frame, preventing items from being thrown off when the placement frame is rotated for selection;
[0026] 3. When picking up an item, this invention can cover the slipping item to prevent it from falling to the outside. Attached Figure Description

[0035] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.
[0036] This invention provides a sterilization-type freezer, such as... Figures 1 to 7As shown, the refrigerator includes a refrigerator body 1. The inner walls of both sides of the refrigerator body 1 are provided with grooves at equal intervals from top to bottom. Slide plates 2 are slidably installed in the grooves. Carrier plates 3 are fixedly installed between two opposing slide plates 2. Ultraviolet lamps 8 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the carrier plates 3 and the top wall of the refrigerator body 1. A circular groove is provided at the top center of the carrier plate 3. A frustum 4 is rotatably installed in the circular groove. A rectangular slot 5 is provided at the top center of the frustum 4. A placement frame 6 is provided above the frustum 4. A rectangular block that cooperates with the rectangular slot 5 is provided at the bottom center of the placement frame 6. A groove 7 is provided at the front center of the carrier plate 3. A pull groove is provided on the bottom wall of the groove 7.
[0037] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a protective ring plate 9 is provided inside the circular groove. The protective ring plate 9 can slide up and down along the circular groove. The placement frame 6 is located inside the protective ring plate 9 and fits against the inner wall of the protective ring plate 9. A lifting component for driving it to rise is provided on the outer side of the protective ring plate 9.
[0038] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the lifting assembly includes a lifting plate 10 symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the protective ring plate 9. The inner wall of the freezer body 1 is provided with a horizontal slide 11 that cooperates with the lifting plate 10. The inner wall of the freezer body 1 and in front of the horizontal slide 11 is provided with an arc-shaped slide 12 that communicates with the horizontal slide 11. The position of the crest of the arc-shaped slide 12 is higher than that of the horizontal slide 11, and the end of the arc-shaped slide 12 is flush with the position of the horizontal slide 11.
[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, the placement frame 6 is circular in shape, and rectangular holes 13 are equidistantly arranged around the top of the placement frame 6. An L-shaped plate 14 is slidably installed inside the rectangular holes 13, and the end of the L-shaped plate 14 away from the rectangular holes 13 is mounted on the top of the protective ring plate 9.
[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, the end of the L-shaped plate 14 away from the rectangular hole 13 will never contact the lifting plate 10.
[0041] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, a U-shaped groove 15 is provided on the top front side of the carrier plate 3. A U-shaped protective plate 16 that cooperates with it is slidably installed inside the U-shaped groove 15. An extension component that drives the U-shaped protective plate 16 to extend out of the U-shaped groove 15 is provided on the outside of the U-shaped protective plate 16.
[0042] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the extended assembly includes a connecting plate 17 symmetrically fixedly installed on the front side of the carrier plate 3. A cylinder 18 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting plate 17. A pressure plate 19 is slidably installed inside the cylinder 18. The bottom of the pressure plate 19 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the cylinder 18 by a spring 21. A straight rod 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the pressure plate 19. The top of the straight rod 20 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped protective plate 16 by a horizontal plate 22. An extrusion strip 23 that cooperates with the U-shaped protective plate 16 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the freezer body 1.
[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, the extrusion strip 23 is made of stainless steel. The front side of the extrusion strip 23 is bent upward. The top of the U-shaped protective plate 16 abuts against the extrusion strip 23. The two ends of the U-shaped protective plate 16 away from the cylinder 18 are located in front of the lifting plate 10.
[0044] Working principle of this invention: In use, items can be placed in the placement frame 6, and the items are sterilized by the ultraviolet lamp 8. The freezer body 1 has a door on the front. When items need to be removed, the door of the freezer body 1 can be opened, and the hand placed in the pull groove can be used to pull the carrier plate 3, causing the truncated cone 4 to move forward. This, in conjunction with the rectangular slot 5 and rectangular block, moves the placement frame 6. The movement of the carrier plate 3 causes the protective ring plate 9 to move, causing the lifting plate 10 to move along the horizontal slide 11. As the lifting plate 10 moves, it comes into contact with the arc-shaped slide 12, causing it to rise and lift the protective ring plate 9. When the protective ring plate 9 reaches its highest point, it covers the items in the placement frame 6. The placement frame 6 can protect the items. Since there are many items on the frame, they may stack. When rotating the frame 6 to select an item, the item may fall off. The protective ring plate 9 protects the items, preventing them from falling off when rotating the frame 6. At this time, half of the placement frame 6 will move to the outside of the freezer body 1. When the protective ring plate 9 rises, it will press against the L-shaped plate 14. When the protective ring plate 9 reaches its highest point, the L-shaped plate 14 is still within the rectangular hole 13. The L-shaped plate 14 can then be rotated to rotate the placement frame 6, allowing the items inside to be selected. Items located at the top of the placement frame 6 can be retrieved. After the item in the back is rotated to the front and selected, the carrier plate 3 is pulled to continue moving, and the lifting plate 10 moves accordingly. As the lifting plate 10 continues to move, it eventually moves to the end of the arc-shaped slide 12, causing the protective ring plate 9 to descend and reset. At this time, half of the placement frame 6 is located outside the freezer body 1, making it easy to retrieve the selected item inside, and making it convenient to retrieve the item located at the top and rear of the placement frame 6. When the protective ring plate 9 descends, the two ends of the U-shaped protective plate 16 away from the cylinder 18 move along the curved section of the extrusion strip 23, causing the spring 21 to continuously release force, driving the pressure plate 19, straight rod 20, horizontal plate 22 and U-shaped protective plate 16 to rise. Half of the frame 6 moves outside the freezer body 1. At this time, the U-shaped protective plate 16 moves to its highest point and stops. It can form a protective barrier with the inner wall of the freezer body 1. When taking out items, it can block other items from falling out of the freezer body 1. After taking out the items, the carrier plate 3 can be retracted into the freezer body 1. When the carrier plate 3 is reset, the U-shaped protective plate 16 is squeezed by the bending section of the extrusion bar 23, causing it to continuously descend. This causes the horizontal plate 22, the straight rod 20, and the pressure plate 19 to descend, compressing the spring 21 and causing it to deform and generate force. Finally, the U-shaped protective plate 16 is reset in the U-shaped groove 15, so that the U-shaped protective plate 16 will not affect the storage and retrieval of items.
[0045] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it.
