Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular to a disinfection cabinet. Background Art

[0002] The disinfection cabinet is equipped with a heating tube to heat and dry the tableware in the disinfection cabinet cavity, and disinfect and sterilize it using the disinfection lamp. Considering the protection of the heating tube, a protective cover is set around the outer side of the heating tube to prevent the tableware from directly contacting the heating element. However, the setting of the protective cover will affect the heat diffusion of the heating tube, resulting in some heat loss. At the same time, the user puts the washed tableware into the disinfection cabinet for disinfection and drying. In the process of transferring the washed tableware from the sink to the disinfection cabinet, water droplets will drip on the ground in front of the disinfection cabinet, causing the ground area in front of the disinfection cabinet to be slippery, which can easily cause the ground to become dirty or cause the user to slip. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a disinfection cabinet that can dry and disinfect tableware while also drying the water on the ground in front of the door, ensuring the cleanliness of the ground and reducing the risk of users falling.

[0004] A disinfection cabinet comprises a cabinet body, a chamber body installed on the cabinet body and a door body connected to the cabinet body; the disinfection cabinet is constructed with a heating chamber, the door body is constructed with a vent connected to the heating chamber, and the chamber body is constructed with a diffusion port connected to the heating chamber and the chamber body; the disinfection cabinet also includes a heating structure, a flip plate and a top contact structure; the heating structure is installed in the heating chamber and comprises a heating element and a protective cover movably connected to the heating element, the protective cover can be moved to the diffusion port to block the heating element or release the blockage to expose the heating element at the diffusion port; the flip plate is movably connected to the door body or the cabinet body and is located at the vent; the top contact structure is transmission-connected to the protective cover, and the top contact structure is configured to drive the flip plate to move in response to the movement of the protective cover to open or close the vent.

[0005] It can be understood that the heating structure is installed by utilizing the setting of the heating chamber to improve the protection of the heating structure. Since the protective cover is movably connected to the heating element, it plays the role of protecting the heating element when the protective cover blocks the heating element. When the blockage is released, the heat of the heating element can flow from the diffusion port to the bile cavity to dry the tableware in the bile cavity. As the tableware is put into the bile cavity after washing, the water on the tableware may fall onto the ground on the side of the door body. Therefore, when the flap moves under the action of the top contact structure to open the vent, the heat generated by the heating element can also be transferred to the outside of the door body through the vent to dry the water on the ground, thereby improving the safety of use.

[0009] In some embodiments, the first cover body blocks the heating element, and the top-contact structure can move toward one side of the heating chamber so that the flip plate is tilted upward and opened from the top-contact structure toward the side outside the vent; the second cover body blocks the heating element, and the top-contact structure can move toward one side of the flip plate so that the flip plate is tilted upward and opened from the top-contact structure toward the side inside the vent.

[0010] In some embodiments, the protective cover is rotatably connected to the heating element; the top contact structure includes at least a top contact rod, and the top contact rod is configured to move along the thickness direction of the front panel in response to the rotation of the protective cover.

[0011] In some embodiments, the top contact rod is directly connected to the flip plate.

[0033] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in the specification of this application have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application.

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 4 An embodiment of the present application provides a disinfection cabinet, comprising a cabinet body 10, a chamber body 20 installed on the cabinet body 10, and a door body 30 connected to the cabinet body 10. The door body 30 can be rotatably connected to the cabinet body 10 by a hinge. The disinfection cabinet is constructed with a heating chamber 701, and a heating structure 40 is provided in the heating chamber 701. The door body 30 is constructed with a vent (not shown in the figure) connected to the heating chamber 701. The heat of the heating chamber 701 can be transferred to the outside of the door body 30 via the vent to be used for drying the floor, ensuring the cleanliness of the floor and reducing the risk of users falling. The chamber body 20 is constructed with a diffusion port 211 connecting the heating chamber 701 and the chamber 201. The chamber 201 is used to store tableware. The heat in the heating chamber 701 can be transferred to the chamber 201 via the diffusion port 211 to dry the tableware.

[0035] The disinfection cabinet also includes a heating structure 40, a flap 50 and a top contact structure 60. The heating structure 40 is installed in the heating chamber 701 and includes a heating element 41 and a protective cover 42 movably connected to the heating element 41. The protective cover 42 can be moved to the diffusion port 211 to block the heating element 41 or to release the blockage so that the heating element 41 is exposed at the diffusion port 211. The flap 50 is movably connected to the door body 30 or the cabinet body 10 and is located at the vent. The top contact structure 60 is in transmission connection with the protective cover 42. The top contact structure 60 is configured to drive the flap 50 to move in response to the movement of the protective cover 42 to open or close the vent.

[0036] It can be understood that the setting of the heating chamber 701 is used to install the heating structure 40, thereby improving the protection of the heating structure 40. On this basis, the setting of the protective cover 42 can be used to block the heating element 41 to further enhance the protective effect; and, since the protective cover 42 is movable relative to the heating element 41, it is convenient to change the setting position of the protective cover 42 relative to the heating element 41. When the protective cover 42 moves the diffusion port 211, it plays a protective role by blocking the heating element 41, preventing the heating element 41 from being bumped or damaged when taking and placing tableware. When the protective cover 42 moves to the point of unblocking, it can cause the heating element 41 to be exposed from the diffusion port 211, and the heat of the heating element 41 is transferred to the gallbladder cavity 201 through the diffusion port 211 and the gallbladder wall of the gallbladder body 20, thereby achieving the disinfection of the tableware in the gallbladder cavity 201; and, the heat transfer here does not need to pass through the protective cover 42, so it will not hinder the heat transfer and consume part of the heat, thereby improving the heat utilization rate.

[0037] At the same time, the provision of the vents on the door body 30 facilitates the connection between the heating chamber 701 and the ambient space outside the door body 30, and can facilitate the transfer of heat from the heating chamber 701 to the ambient space outside the door body 30 through the vents. In this way, when water drips from the ground due to the placement of tableware, the heat from the heating chamber 701 can be used to dry the water on the ground, thereby avoiding the problem of the ground being dirty or the user slipping due to water accumulation on the front side of the door body 30. In this process, the provision of the flap 50 can be used to open and close the vents; and, by utilizing the provision of the ejection structure, the opening and closing of the flap 50 is linked to the movement of the protective cover 42 to ensure that the flap 50 is in a closed state when the bile cavity 201 needs to be heated and dried, thereby blocking the connection between the heating chamber 701 and the ambient space outside the door body 30, thereby preventing heat from being transferred to the outside of the door body 30 through the vents, resulting in insufficient drying of the bile cavity 201.

[0038] Please continue reading Figures 1 to 4For example, the gallbladder body 20 has a gallbladder bottom wall 21, the cabinet body 10 has a cabinet bottom wall 11, the heating chamber 701 is arranged between the gallbladder bottom wall 21 and the cabinet bottom wall 11, and the diffusion port 211 is arranged on the gallbladder bottom wall 21. Such a setting is equivalent to setting the heating structure 40 at the bottom of the gallbladder body 20 and facing the side of the cabinet body 10, which does not occupy the gallbladder cavity 201 space and does not interfere with the structure inside the gallbladder cavity 201. In particular, the setting of the lower pull-out basket in the gallbladder cavity 201 can be arranged in a lower position, effectively improving the utilization rate of the gallbladder cavity 201 space. Moreover, such a setting realizes the hidden installation of the heating structure 40. When the door body 30 of the disinfection cabinet is opened, the heating structure 40 is not visible, which not only improves the protection of the heating structure 40, but also improves the aesthetics of the disinfection cabinet itself. In addition, the heating chamber 701 is located at the bottom, which is conducive to the hot air flow flowing upward from the bottom of the gallbladder cavity 201 and fully acting on all parts of the gallbladder cavity 201.

[0039] It should be noted that the phrase "heating element 41 is exposed to diffuser 211" means that the heating element 41 is visible through diffuser 211, and does not necessarily mean that the heating element 41 must be moved to the diffuser 211 or from the diffuser 211 into the gallbladder cavity 201. The heating element 41 is installed in the heating cavity 701 and its position remains unchanged throughout use.

[0040] Please continue reading Figures 1 to 5 Furthermore, a front panel 12 is provided on the side of the cabinet 10 facing the door 30. The vents and heating chamber 701 are located on either side of the front panel 12 in the thickness direction. The front panel 12 is configured with vents 121 connecting the heating chamber 701 and the vents, thereby facilitating the discharge of air within the heating chamber 701 through the vents 121 and the vents to the outside of the door 30 for drying the floor. Multiple vents 121 are provided and spaced apart to increase ventilation. The height of the disinfection cabinet is along the Z axis. The heating element 41 is a heating tube, and the axial direction of the heating element 41 is along the X axis. The thickness of the front panel 12 is along the Y axis, and the front panel 12 is located on the side of the cabinet 10 facing the user along the Y axis. The front panel 12 is configured with an opening connecting the gallbladder cavity 201. A sealing ring 13 is provided around the edge of the opening to seal it with the door 30. The vents are located below the sealing ring 13 and on the front side of the front panel 12. A flap 50 is provided on the front side of the front panel 12.

[0041] In actual use, the bottom wall 21, cabinet bottom wall 11, and front panel 12 collectively define an assembly space 1001 connected to the ventilation opening. The disinfection cabinet also includes a mounting bracket 70 and a heat dissipation fan 80, both mounted in the assembly space 1001. The mounting bracket 70 and the bottom wall 21 together enclose a heating chamber 701. The mounting bracket 70 is configured with a flow opening 702 connecting the heating chamber 701 and the assembly space 1001. The heat dissipation fan 80 is located on the side of the mounting bracket 70 facing away from the door 30.

[0042] As will be appreciated, the installation of the mounting bracket 70 facilitates the assembly of the heating structure 40 relative to the chamber 20 and the cabinet 10. The mounting bracket 70 can be connected to either the cabinet 10 or the chamber 20. The heating structure 40 is supported within the mounting bracket 70 by the mounting seat 76, enhancing the protection of the heating structure 40 and preventing interference with other structures at the bottom of the disinfection cabinet. The provision of the flow opening 702 facilitates airflow. Simultaneously, the provision of the heat dissipation fan 80 accelerates air flow, enhancing the drying effect on the chamber 201 and the floor. In actual use, the airflow generated by the heat dissipation fan 80 blows toward the heating element 41, which heats it. When the flap 50 is closed and the protective cover 42 does not obstruct the heating element 41, the heated air can fully act on the dishes in the chamber 201, enhancing the drying effect. When the flap 50 is open, the heated air can be transferred through the vent to the outside of the door 30 for drying the floor.

[0043] See also Figure 9 and Figure 12 In actual use, the heat dissipation fan 80 is opposite to and spaced apart from the door body 30, and the heating structure 40 is arranged between the heat dissipation fan 80 and the door body 30. The side of the protective cover 42 facing the heating element 41 is constructed with a guide surface 4201. When the bile cavity is dried, the protective cover 42 can be rotated to the air outlet path of the heat dissipation fan 80. Under the action of the heat dissipation fan 80, the air flow flows to the heating element 41 for sufficient heating, and the setting of the guide surface 4201 is used to change the direction of the air flow, so that the heated air flow fully flows into the bile cavity through the diffuser 211, thereby improving the drying effect. The mounting bracket 70 includes two first side plates 71 that are opposite to and spaced apart in the X-axis direction, two second side plates 72 that are opposite to and spaced apart in the Y-axis direction, and a bottom plate 73. The two first side plates 71 and the two second side plates 72 are all connected to the bottom plate 73. The spacing between the two second side panels 72 along the Y-axis gradually decreases from top to bottom, and each second side panel 72 is provided with a plurality of spaced-apart circulation holes. Both second side panels 72 may also be provided with radiating surfaces for radiating heat from the heating element 41, facilitating the sufficient diffusion of heat to all locations in the gallbladder cavity and improving the drying effect. Furthermore, the radiating surfaces allow heat to be evenly diffused onto the gallbladder bottom wall 21, thereby transferring heat to the gallbladder cavity through the gallbladder bottom wall 21.

[0044] The heat dissipation fan 80 is mounted on the mounting bracket 70 using a fan frame 81 .

[0045] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 10 In an optional embodiment, the disinfection cabinet further includes a cooling structure (not shown in the figure), which is opposite to the diffuser 211 and arranged at intervals, and the cooling structure has a cooling cavity 703. The cavity opening of the cooling cavity 703 is connected to the heating cavity 701, and at least part of the protective cover 42 can be accommodated in the cooling cavity 703. It can be understood that the provision of the cooling cavity 703 can be used to dissipate heat and cool the protective cover 42, thereby avoiding the problem of the protective cover 42 being overheated due to the heat of the heating element 41. In this way, when the protective cover 42 is rotated to the shielding state again, a lower temperature can be maintained, which is convenient for users to wipe and clean, and to avoid burns and other problems as much as possible.

[0046] Specifically, when the diffuser 211 is located above the heating element 41, the cooling chamber 703 is provided below the heating element 41. Cooling liquid is stored in the cooling chamber 703. In the cooling state, at least part of the protective cover 42 is immersed in the coolant to achieve heat dissipation and cooling of the protective cover 42. The coolant can be water, and the cooling chamber 703 can be connected to a water supply structure to keep the water in the cooling chamber 703 at as low a temperature as possible. Alternatively, the cooling structure can also be an air-cooled structure. As long as it can meet the cooling requirements of the protective cover 42 and reduce the heating effect on the heating element 41, it will suffice. This is only used as an example.

[0047] like Figure 2 and Figure 11 As shown, further, a plurality of heat dissipation protrusions 4200 are convexly provided on the side of the protective cover 42 away from the heating element 41 and arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the heating element 41. By providing the heat dissipation protrusions 4200, the contact area between the protective cover 42 itself and the cold amount in the cooling chamber 703 is increased, thereby enhancing the cooling effect. At the same time, heat dissipation holes (not shown in the figure) are arranged at intervals on the heat dissipation protrusions 4200 to further increase the contact area with the cold amount in the cooling chamber 703 and improve the cooling effect; and, when the protective cover 42 is moved out of the cooling chamber 703, the water on the protective cover 42 can flow back to the cooling chamber 703 through the heat dissipation holes. Among them, a plurality of heat dissipation protrusions 4200 arranged at intervals can be directly formed integrally on the protective cover 42 by stamping to meet the heat dissipation and cooling requirements.

[0048] Alternatively, a plurality of heat dissipation fins spaced apart along the X-axis direction may be protruded from the side of the protective cover 42 facing away from the heating element 41 , as long as the heat dissipation effect can be enhanced.

[0049] In some specific embodiments, the side of the bottom plate 73 facing the heating chamber 701 is recessed downward along the Z-axis to form a cooling chamber 703, that is, the cooling structure is integrally formed with the mounting bracket 70. At the same time, water on the tableware drips downward under its own gravity and can drip into the cooling chamber 703 through the diffuser 211, which can be used to collect excess water and use the collected water to cool the protective cover 42. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom wall 21 of the tank is constructed with multiple annular stepped surfaces 212 centered on the diffuser 211 , from large to small, from outside to inside, and from high to low, to facilitate water flow to converge at the diffuser 211 and flow to the cooling chamber 703 .

[0050] Optionally, the mounting bracket 70 is connected to a plurality of support seats 74 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the diffuser 211, and a gravity sensor (not shown in the figure) is provided at each support seat 74. In other words, the gravity sensor can be used to detect the weight of water in the cooling chamber 703 of the mounting bracket 70. When the weight of the water collected in the cooling chamber 703 is greater than a preset threshold, the water in the cooling chamber 703 needs to be dried. When the gravity sensor detects that the weight of the mounting bracket 70 is less than the target weight value, the above-mentioned drying operation can be stopped. A critical maximum value (i.e., the aforementioned preset threshold) and a critical minimum value (i.e., the aforementioned target weight value) can be set.

[0051] When drying the water in the cooling chamber 703, the protective cover 42 can be rotated to the diffusion port 211 to block the heating chamber 701 and the bile chamber, the heating element 41 and the heat dissipation fan 80 can be turned on, and the flap 50 can also be opened to fully discharge the water vapor generated by the drying water.

[0052] It is worth noting that the rotation of the protective cover 42 to the diffusion opening 211 does not rely entirely on the detection signal of the gravity sensor. When it is necessary to open the door 30 to take out or put in tableware, the protective cover 42 can also be rotated to the diffusion opening 211 to achieve the purpose of protecting the heating element 41. Of course, when drying the moisture in the liquid collection chamber, the protective cover 42 can also be rotated to other positions as long as it does not interfere with the drying of the moisture in the cooling chamber 703.

[0053] Furthermore, support bases 74 and gravity sensors are respectively installed at the four top corners of the mounting bracket 70 to improve detection accuracy.

[0054] The following description takes the heating element 41 as a heating tube as an example.

[0055] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11, illustratively, the protective cover 42 is rotatably connected to the heating element 41. That is, by driving the protective cover 42 to rotate around the axis of the heating element 41, the protective position of the protective cover 42 relative to the heating element 41 is adjusted to achieve shielding and unshielding. The protective cover 42 is arranged in an arc shape that matches the shape of the heating element 41. A mounting seat 76 is provided at both ends of the axial direction of the heating element 41. The protective cover 42 includes a cover body 421, a connecting portion 422 and a mounting ring 423. The cover body 421 is connected to a connecting portion 422 at both ends of the axial direction of the heating element 41. Each connecting portion 422 is connected to a mounting ring 423. The mounting ring 423 is sleeved on the seat body of the heating element 41 and rotatably connected. The cover body 421 is arc-shaped for shielding the heating element 41, and the connecting portion 422 is fan-shaped to increase the distance between the cover body 421 and the heating element 41 along the radial direction of the heating element 41. The mounting ring 423 is connected to the top contact structure 60 by a transmission mechanism 90 to achieve linkage between the protective cover 42 and the top contact structure 60 .

[0056] Furthermore, the top-touch structure 60 includes at least a top-touch rod 61, which is configured to move along a first direction in response to the rotation of the protective cover 42. That is, the rotation of the protective cover 42 drives the top-touch rod 61 to perform linear motion, thereby driving the flap 50 to move to open or close the vent. The flap 50 is rotatably connected to the door body 30; for example, a rotating shaft 53 is provided at the top of the flap 50, and a rotating groove 301 is provided at the door bracket 31 at the bottom of the door body 30, and the rotating shaft 53 is inserted into the rotating groove 301 and rotatably connected. Alternatively, the flap 50 is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 10; for example, the flap 50 is connected to a rotating shaft at both ends along its own length direction, and both side panels on the cabinet body 10 are provided with a rotating hole, and the rotating shaft is inserted into the rotating hole and rotatably connected. The front panel 12 is configured with a through hole for the top-touch rod 61 to pass through, and a guide seat 122 is provided at the through hole. The top-touch rod 61 passes through the guide seat 122 to guide the linear movement of the top-touch rod 61 .

[0057] Alternatively, the protective cover 42 may be rotatably connected to the cabinet 10, or the protective cover 42 may be slidably connected to the cabinet 10. Furthermore, the flap 50 may be slidably connected to the cabinet 10 or the door 30. This is sufficient as long as the protective cover 42 can be moved to block and unblock the heater 41, thereby driving the top contact rod 61 to move the flap 50 to open or close the vent.

[0058] In actual use, the cover 421 can be one, two, or even three, as long as it can meet the requirements of protecting the heating element 41 and the aforementioned linkage.

[0059] See also Figures 3 to 7As one embodiment, the protective cover 42 includes two covers 421, namely a first cover 4211 and a second cover 4212, which are spaced apart around the axis of the heater 41. When one of the first cover 4211 and the second cover 4212 shields the heater 41, the other is positioned in the air outlet path of the heat dissipation fan 80. The first cover 4211 and the second cover 4212 are respectively provided with connecting portions 422, and the two sets of connecting portions 422 are spaced apart along the circumference of the mounting ring 423.

[0060] Specifically, when the first cover 4211 blocks the heating element 41, the top-touch rod 61 can move toward one side of the heating chamber 701, causing the flap 50 to tilt upward and open from the top-touch rod 61 toward the outside of the vent. When the second cover 4212 blocks the heating element 41, the top-touch rod 61 can move toward one side of the flap 50, causing the flap 50 to tilt upward and open from the top-touch rod 61 toward the inside of the vent. The flap 50 and the heating chamber 701 are spaced apart along the Y-axis, and the flap 50 is located at the front side of the heating chamber 701. That is, by using either the first cover 4211 or the second cover 4212 to block the heating element 41, the flip direction of the flap 50 can be reversed, thereby adjusting the opening direction of the vent. For example, the vent can be opened toward the ground or toward the area above the door 30.

[0061] When the first cover 4211 rotates to the diffuser 211 to block the heating element 41, the top-touch rod 61 retracts relative to the ventilation opening toward the heating chamber 701, causing the flap 50 to open upward and the airflow blown through the assembly space 1001 and the heating chamber 701 to flow out from above the flap 50. When the second cover 4212 rotates to the diffuser 211 to block the heating element 41, the top-touch rod 61 extends relative to the ventilation opening toward the side away from the heating chamber 701, causing the flap 50 to open downward and the airflow blown through the assembly space 1001 and the heating chamber 701 to flow out from below the flap 50. When the heating element 41 is turned on, the heat from the heating element 41 can be used to act on the space in front of the door 30, not only meeting the temperature regulation requirements but also achieving floor drying.

[0062] like Figures 5 to 7As shown, one of the first cover 4211 and the second cover 4212 is provided with a heating fin 44 on the side facing away from the heating element 41, and a cooling fin 45 on the side facing away from the heating element 41. When the heating fin 44 is turned on, it generates heat to heat the airflow, while when the cooling fin 45 is turned on, it cools the air. By controlling the operation of either the heating fin 44 or the cooling fin 45, the temperature of the kitchen space can be regulated. For example, the heating fin 44 is provided on the first cover 4211 and the cooling fin 45 is provided on the second cover 4212. When the first cover 4211 rotates to the diffuser 211, the second cover 4212 is located in the airflow path of the heat dissipation fan 80. The flap 50 opens upward, and the heat dissipation fan 80 blows air through the second cover 4212. The airflow is cooled by the cooling fin 45 and then blown toward the kitchen, thereby cooling the kitchen. When the second cover 4212 rotates to the diffuser 211, the first cover 4211 is located in the air outlet path of the cooling fan 80, and the flap 50 opens downward. The airflow from the cooling fan 80 flows through the first cover 4211, is heated by the heating fins 44, and then blows toward the ground to dry out any accumulated water on the ground. The hot airflow then flows upward after contacting the ground, and can be used to heat the kitchen. The user can adjust the position of the first cover 4211 or the second cover 4212 in the air outlet path of the cooling fan 80 as needed to adjust the kitchen temperature.

[0063] In some specific embodiments, the cooling fins 45 are semiconductor cooling fins, and the heating fins 44 are semiconductor heating fins.

[0064] Please continue reading Figures 3 to 7 In an optional embodiment, the top touch rod 61 in the top touch structure 60 is directly connected to the flap 50. In this way, when the protective cover 42 rotates, the flap 50 can be driven to move by the linear movement of the top touch rod 61. That is, as long as the protective cover 42 moves, the corresponding top touch rod 61 is easy to move, thereby driving the flap 50 to move. For example, a magnetic component 52 is provided between the top touch rod 61 and the flap 50. Specifically, the magnetic component 52 is installed on the side of the flap 50 facing the heating chamber 701, and a direct connection is achieved by magnetic adsorption between the magnetic component 52 and the top touch rod 61. The length of the magnetic component 52 is along the Z-axis direction, and the width is along the X-axis direction, so as to ensure that the top touch rod 61 is always in contact with the magnetic component 52, thereby achieving a direct connection between the top touch rod 61 and the flap 50.

[0065] like Figure 1 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, in another alternative embodiment, the top-touch rod 61 is configured to move toward and away from the flap 50 in response to the rotation of the protective cover 42. A reset member 51 is disposed between the flap 50 and the door body 30. When the top-touch rod 61 moves away from the flap 50, the flap 50 can return to its initial state under the action of the reset member 51. The initial state is when the flap 50 closes the vent. The top-touch rod 61 is mounted in the assembly space 1001 and moves linearly within the assembly space 1001. When the top-touch rod 61 moves toward the flap 50, continued movement of the top-touch rod 61 allows the flap 50 to open the vent. When the top-touch rod 61 moves away from the flap 50, the flap 50 closes under the action of the reset member 51. In other words, the top-touch rod 61 is not directly connected to the flap 50, and the top-touch rod 61 must move a certain distance before it can contact the flap 50 to open the vent. When the flap 50 is in the initial state, there is a gap between the top contact rod 61 and the flap 50 .

[0066] The reset member 51 may be a magnet. It is mounted above the flap 50 to facilitate magnetic attachment to the door body 30. In other embodiments, the reset member 51 may also be an elastic member. For example, a spring or torsion spring may be connected between the flap 50 and the door body 30. This configuration is sufficient as long as it ensures that the flap 50 returns to its initial state after the push rod 61 is removed. This is merely an example.

[0067] Furthermore, a top contact block 54 can be protruded on the side of the flap 50 facing the heating chamber 701 to facilitate the top contact cooperation with the top contact rod 61; and the provision of the top contact block 54 shortens the moving distance of the top contact rod 61, making it easier to open the top contact flap 50.

[0068] The flap 50 may be a flat plate, or may include a flat plate and side baffles connected to both sides of the flat plate in the longitudinal direction to limit the lateral flow of the airflow and ensure that more air can act on the ground.

[0069] like Figures 2 to 11 As shown, in actual use, the disinfection cabinet also includes a transmission mechanism 90 to achieve the linkage between the rotation of the protective cover 42 and the linear motion of the top contact structure 60. The transmission mechanism 90 includes a first transmission unit 91 for driving the protective cover 42 and a second transmission unit 92 for driving the top contact structure 60. The first transmission unit 91 and the second transmission unit 92 are in transmission connection. The transmission mechanism 90 also includes a power source in transmission connection with the first transmission unit 91 to realize power input.

[0070] The first transmission unit 91 includes a driving gear 911 and a driven ring gear 912, which are engaged for transmission. The driven ring gear 912 is mounted on the base of the heating element 41 and is rotatably connected. The driven ring gear 912 is connected to the mounting ring 423 of the protective cover 42, driving the protective cover 42 to rotate around the axis of the heating element 41. A bushing can be mounted on the outer side of the base, and the driven ring gear 912 and the mounting ring 423 are both mounted on the bushing. Alternatively, the mounting ring 423 extends partially along the axis of the heating element 41, and a plurality of teeth arranged at intervals around the axis are provided on the extended portion to engage with the driving gear 911 for transmission. The diameter of the driven ring gear 912 is larger than the diameter of the driving gear 911 to ensure that the rotation speed of the protective cover 42 is low.

[0071] The top contact structure 60 also includes a top contact rack 62 connected to the top contact rod 61. The top contact rack 62 is supported on and slidably connected to a rack seat 63, which is mounted on the cabinet bottom wall 11. The second transmission unit 92 includes a belt drive assembly 921 and a transmission gear 922. The transmission gear 922 meshes with the top contact rack 62. The belt drive assembly 921 is connected between the transmission gear 922 and the driven ring gear 912. The driven ring gear 912 can be driven by the belt drive assembly 921 to rotate the transmission gear 922. The belt drive assembly 921 includes two pulleys and a drive belt tensioned between them. One pulley is coaxial with the driven ring gear 912, and the other pulley is coaxial with the transmission gear 922. Both pulleys are configured with a wheel groove, in which the transmission belt is received, thereby limiting the axial direction of the pulleys. One of the pulleys can directly serve as the mounting ring 423.

[0072] Alternatively, the first transmission unit 91 may also be a belt drive, as long as it can satisfy the rotation of the protective cover 42 .

[0073] The mounting bracket 70 is configured with an escape notch 704 to facilitate assembly of the transmission belt in the belt drive assembly 921. The transmission belt is threaded through the escape notch 704 to connect and tension the pulleys at both ends.

[0074] See also Figure 12 Exemplarily, the protective cover 42 includes a cover base 4202 and an outer cover body 4203 connected to the cover base 4202, and the outer cover body 4203 is located on the side of the cover base 4202 away from the heating element 41. At least part of the cover base 4202 is accommodated in the cooling cavity 703. Such a setting is equivalent to setting the protective cover 42 into a double layer, which increases the thickness of the protective cover 42 itself. The heat of the heating element 41 can be transferred to the outer cover body 4203 after passing through the cover base 4202, thereby avoiding the problem of burns caused by excessive temperature on the side of the outer cover body 4203 away from the heating element 41. Among them, the cover base 4202 and the outer cover body 4203 are both arranged in an arc shape that is compatible with the heating element 41, and the cover base 4202 is connected to mounting rings 423 at both ends along the X-axis direction.

[0075] Furthermore, there is a heat-insulating gap 4204 between the cover base 4202 and the outer cover 4203, which ensures that the outer cover 4203 and the cover base 4202 do not directly contact each other, so as to form an air layer between the two and reduce heat conduction.

[0076] Furthermore, the outer cover 4203 is elastically connected to the cover base 4202, namely, an elastic member 4205 is connected between the two. In the shielding state, the outer cover 4203 can move closer to the cover base 4202 under the action of its own weight. In the cooling state, the outer cover 4203 can move away from the cover base 4202 under the action of its own weight and be at least contained in the cooling cavity 703. In other words, this arrangement allows the outer cover 4203 to adapt to the cooling state during the rotation of the protective cover 42 relative to the heating element 41, thereby improving the cooling effect. It also provides a cushioning effect for items falling onto the protective cover 42. Specifically, when the protective cover 42 is shielding the heating element 41, even if an item falls onto the protective cover 42, the elastic member 4205 can provide a cushioning effect, improving safety. Moreover, when the protective cover 42 rotates to the cooling state, the outer cover 4203 can move downward under its own weight, so that it can be immersed in the coolant and achieve heat dissipation and cooling.

[0077] Optionally, the cover base 4202 is provided with a first column 4206, and the outer cover 4203 is provided with a second column 4207, with the first column 4206 and the second column 4207 being slidably connected. Specifically, the first column 4206 is configured with an assembly hole, and the second column 4207 is inserted into the assembly hole and is movable within the assembly hole along the axis of the assembly hole. The plug-in fit of the second column 4207 relative to the first column 4206 guides the movement of the outer cover 4203 relative to the cover base 4202; this arrangement also serves as a limiter, preventing the outer cover 4203 from shifting or shaking. The elastic member 4205 is a spring that can be mounted on the outside of the second column 4207, improving the installation stability of the elastic member 4205 and preventing the elastic member 4205 from shaking and causing the outer cover 4203 to shift.

[0078] In some specific embodiments, the first column 4206 is integrally formed with the cover base 4202, and the second column 4207 is integrally formed with the outer cover 4203. A plurality of heat dissipation protrusions 4200 spaced along the X-axis are provided on the side of the outer cover 4203 facing away from the cover base 4202 to increase the heat dissipation area and enhance the structural strength of the outer cover 4203. The first column 4206 extends from the end facing away from the outer cover 4203 toward the side near the heater 41. A temperature measuring base 4208 is connected to the extended end. The temperature measuring base 4208 seals the mounting hole, and a temperature sensor 4209 is provided on the side of the temperature measuring base 4208 facing the mounting hole to detect the temperature of the outer cover 4203. The temperature measuring base 4208 engages with the first column 4206 in a snap-fit ​​manner. A claw is provided at the extended end of the first column 4206 to engage with a latch hole on the temperature measuring base 4208.

[0079] Alternatively, the first column 4206 may be connected to the outer cover 4203 and the second column 4207 may be connected to the cover base 4202 , as long as the outer cover 4203 can be guided to move relative to the cover base 4202 through the cooperation of the first column 4206 and the second column 4207 .

[0080] The linkage between the protective cover 42 and the top contact structure 60 will be described in detail below in combination with two embodiments.

[0081] See also Figures 3 to 7 In the first embodiment, the top contact rod 61 is directly connected to the flap 50 via a magnetic member. The flap 50 is rotatably connected to the cabinet 10 via a rotation axis located along both sides of its length and in the middle of its width. The protective cover 42 includes a first cover 4211 and a second cover 4212. The protective cover 42 has at least a first position, a second position, and a third position.

[0082] like Figure 5 As shown, in the first position, the first cover 4211 and the second cover 4212 are located on both sides of the heating element 41 along the Y-axis direction, and the heating element 41 can be exposed through the diffuser 211, and the flap 50 closes the vent. At this time, it can be used to dry tableware in the gallbladder cavity. When the heating element 41 is turned on, heat can be transferred to the gallbladder cavity through the bottom wall 21 and the diffuser 211; and, due to the arrangement of the first cover 4211 and the second cover 4212, it is equivalent to providing two guide surfaces 4201 on both sides of the heating element 41, ensuring that heat is more fully and multi-angledly transferred to the gallbladder cavity, thereby improving the drying effect. At this time, the cooling fins 45 and the heating fins 44 on the first cover 4211 and the second cover 4212 are not turned on.

[0083] like Figure 6As shown, in the second position, the first cover body 4211 rotates to the diffuser 211 to block the heating element 41, the second cover body 4212 is located on the side of the heating element 41 facing the heat dissipation fan 80 along the Y-axis direction, and the flap 50 is opened upward. The heating element 41 is in the closed state. At this time, a heating fin 44 is provided on the first cover body 4211, and a cooling fin 45 is provided on the second cover body 4212. Since the heating fin 44 is provided on the side of the first cover body 4211 away from the heating element 41, the heat generated by the heating fin 44 is transferred to the bile cavity to prevent the tableware from getting wet. The cooling fin 45 is provided on the side of the second cover body 4212 away from the heating element 41 and is located on the air outlet path of the heat dissipation fan 80. The cooling effect generated is applied to the airflow, which is guided to the front space of the door body 30 via the heat dissipation fan 80 and the flap 50 to reduce the temperature in the kitchen. This can be applied when the external ambient temperature is high.

[0084] like Figure 7 As shown, in the third position, the second cover 4212 rotates to the diffuser 211 to shield the heater 41. The first cover 4211 is located on the side of the heater 41 facing the flap 50 along the Y-axis, and the flap 50 is open downward. The heater 41 is in the off state. In other words, the first cover 4211 is located in the air outlet path of the heat dissipation fan 80. After being heated by the heating fins 44, the airflow can flow to the ground to dry the ground. Moreover, the hot air flowing to the ground can also rise to increase the temperature in a certain area of ​​the kitchen. This is suitable for use when the external ambient temperature is low.

[0085] See also Figure 2 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10 In the second embodiment, the top of the flap 50 is pivotally connected to the bottom of the door body 30. The top contact rod 61 is configured to move toward and away from the flap 50 in response to the rotation of the protective cover 42. The flap 50 returns to its initial position using the reset member 51. In this case, the protective cover 42 includes only a cover body 421. The protective cover 42 has at least a fourth position, a fifth position, and a sixth position.

[0086] like Figure 8 As shown, in the fourth position, the protective cover 42 shields the heating element 41, the flap 50 is in its initial position to close the vent, and the top-touch rod 61 is at its maximum distance from the flap 50. This position facilitates the user's access to and placement of tableware. When the door 30 is opened, the flap 50 moves away from the front panel 12, and the top-touch rod 61 is hidden within the assembly space 1001, preventing it from being touched or extending and poking the user. Furthermore, the protective cover 42 protects the heating element 41, preventing tableware from falling and damaging it.

[0087] like Figure 9As shown, in the fifth position, the protective cover 42 rotates to the side of the heating element 41 facing the flap 50 along the Y-axis direction, and is located on the air outlet path of the heat dissipation fan 80. The airflow from the heat dissipation fan 80 flows to the protective cover 42, and is fully transferred to the bile cavity under the action of the guide surface 4201 for drying the tableware. At this time, the top contact rod 61 moves a distance toward the side of the flap 50, which is not enough to push the flap 50 to rotate open. It can be that the top contact rod 61 just contacts the top contact block 54 on the flap 50. At this time, since the flap 50 is still in the closed state, the heat leakage through the vent can be reduced, so that the heat can fully act on the tableware in the bile cavity.

[0088] like Figure 10 As shown, in the sixth position, the protective cover 42 rotates to the cooling chamber 703 to cool the dishes after drying. The top contact rod 61 pushes the flap 50 open. Airflow from the heat dissipation fan 80 flows through the heater 41 and out through the vents, utilizing the residual heat from the heater 41 to dry the floor. Furthermore, if the floor is wet, the heater 41 can be turned on to increase the temperature of the hot air flow, facilitating faster floor drying.

[0089] It should be noted that in both the fifth and sixth positions, the door 30 is locked to prevent accidental activation. When the ground water dries, or the aforementioned temperature sensor 4209 detects that the temperature of the protective cover 42 reaches or falls below a safe temperature, the door 30 can be unlocked, and the protective cover 42 can be rotated to the diffuser 211. This is merely an example.

[0090] The technical features of the above-mentioned embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-mentioned embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0091] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of patent protection for the present application shall be determined by the appended claims.
