[0019] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings. A corner cabinet electric drive guide assembly comprises a fixed seat 1 and a movable seat 2, a linear guide 3 is installed on the fixed seat 1 through a linear guide 3, and a linear slide 4 is located on the linear guide 3 and slides; the linear slide 4 is connected with the movable seat 2 through a rotating shaft 5, and the movable seat 2 can rotate around the rotating shaft 5;

[0020] The fixed seat 1 is also provided with a guide rail 6 and a guide rack 7;

[0021] Correspondingly, the movable seat 2 is provided with a power guide block 8 and a power drive gear 9, the power guide block 8 cooperates with the guide rail 6, the power drive gear 9 meshes with the guide rack 7, and the power drive gear 9 drives the movable seat 2 to rotate around the rotating shaft 5 and drives the linear slide 4 to slide on the linear guide 3.

[0022] The guide rail 6 and the guide rack 7 are arranged in a "U" shape, and the two are arranged in parallel.

[0023] The movable seat 2 is rotatably mounted on the rotating shaft 5 via the bearing 21.

[0024] The upper end of the guide rack 7 is also provided with an outer guide rail 71, which is set on the same track as the guide rack 7.

[0025] The power drive gear 9 is rotatably mounted on the power frame 91, which is connected to the movable seat 2. An electric motor 92 is installed on the power frame 91 to drive the power drive gear 9 to rotate.

[0026] The power frame 91 is also provided with position switches 93 on both sides. Correspondingly, limit blocks 94 are provided on both ends of the guide rack 7 to cooperate with the position switches 93 and limit the movement stroke of the movable seat 2.

[0027] The power guide block 8 includes a first guide wheel 81 that is pressed against the surface of the guide rail.

[0028] The outer guide rail 71 is provided with a second guide wheel 82, which is mounted on the upper end of the power drive gear 9 and is coaxially rotatably connected to the power drive gear 9.

[0029] Working principle: such as Figures 1-4 As shown, when the guide components in this case are used with the corner cabinet 12, a set of guide components needs to be installed at both the top and bottom of the corner cabinet 12. The movable seat part of the guide component is fixed to the top and bottom plates of the corner cabinet 12, and the fixed seat part of the guide component is fixed to the cabinet body 13. By connecting the two sets of guide components, the corner cabinet 12 can be rotatably installed on the cabinet body 13.

[0030] When the user rotates the corner cabinet, the control system can control the opening or closing of the rotating cabinet by controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the motor 92. The specific action is as follows: when the motor 92 rotates, the power drive gear 9 is driven to rotate through the speed reduction mechanism. When the power drive gear 9 rotates, the reverse drive power frame 91 moves along the track of the guide rack because the guide rack is in a fixed state. At the same time, under the action of the guide rail and the first and second guide wheels in the power guide block and the guide rail and the outer guide rail, the movable seat rotates around the rotating shaft 5 and also slides on the linear guide rail through the linear slide. Through the cooperation of linear motion and rotary motion, the main body of the corner cabinet translates outward along the linear guide rail when the corner cabinet rotates, avoiding collision with the cabinet body 13 when the corner cabinet rotates. After the corner cabinet rotates to the position, the corner cabinet translates inward and rotates synchronously under the action of the guide rail, finally realizing the 180° rotation of the corner cabinet 12. The user can automatically control the movement of the rotating corner cabinet 12 through the control of the electric control system, realizing the display state of the cabinet body opening outward and the hidden state of the corner cabinet 12 opening inward. Therefore, the user can choose the display state of the cabinet body opening outward or the hidden state of the cabinet body opening inward according to actual needs, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the cabinet body, maintaining privacy, and avoiding dust accumulation in the corner cabinet and keeping the interior of the cabinet clean.

[0031] Further, the motion trajectory of the corner cabinet in the case is U-shaped, which occupies a small area, thus being suitable for some small cabinets. In addition, because the linear guide rail is located inside the U-shaped guide rack and the guide rail, the guide assembly structure in the case is more compact, thereby reducing production costs and installation space.

[0032] It should be noted that the rotation of the corner cabinet in the case is driven by an electric mechanism, which can be applied to large and heavy corner cabinets. Second, because of the electric drive, the opening and closing of the cabinet body is more convenient and labor-saving, and has a strong sense of technology. At the same time, the speed of electric opening and closing can be completed by adjusting the speed of the motor through the control system, and the opening and closing speed can be adjusted according to the actual user's needs to meet the use of different places. In addition, through the optimization of the control program, the cabinet body rotates at low speed at the start and before stopping, and at high speed in the middle of rotation, which realizes fast opening and closing while avoiding the items in the cabinet from falling due to excessive acceleration. In addition, after the electric drive in the case, the control system can also open and close through network, card swiping, secret key card swiping, etc. There is no need to reserve a lock hole outside, thereby playing a certain anti-theft and security role.

[0033] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely example for clearly illustrating but not limitation to the embodiments. Based on the above description, other different forms of changes or variations can be made by those skilled in the art. Here, all the embodiments need not and can not be enumerated. The changes or variations extended from the above obviously fall into the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
