[0030] See also Figures 1 to 7 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a switch door structure of a drawer-type kitchen appliance.

[0031] The switch door structure of the drawer-type kitchen appliance of this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, including:

[0032] The kitchen appliance body 1 is provided with a drawer door assembly 2, such as Figure 2 As shown, the drawer door assembly 2 includes a slide rail 21 fixedly arranged inside the kitchen appliance body 1, a slide rail support frame 22 connected to the slide rail 21, and a drawer door 23 connected to the slide rail support frame 22;

[0033] A drawer movement mechanism 3 is arranged inside the kitchen appliance body 1 and connected to the drawer door 23. The drawer movement mechanism 3 includes a driving module 31 and a transmission module 32. The transmission module 32 includes a transmission wheel group 33 connected to the driving module 31, a transmission base 34 fixed inside the kitchen appliance body 1, and two groups of synchronizers 35 arranged on the transmission base 34. The transmission wheel group 33 is connected to a driving rod 36. Both sides of the driving rod 36 are respectively linked with the synchronizers 35. Both ends of the driving rod 36 are connected to the drawer door assembly 2 to drive the drawer door assembly 2 to open and close.

[0034] Specifically, as 2 to Figure 4As shown, the transmission wheel group 33 includes an active driving component 331, a driven driving component 332 and a synchronous belt 333 for connecting the active driving component 331 and the driven driving component 332. The active driving component 331 includes a first fixing frame 3311 fixed on the transmission base 34, a main driving gear 3312 arranged on one side of the first fixing frame 3311 and a first transmission gear 3313 movably arranged in the first fixing frame 3311. The first transmission gear 3313 is linked with the main driving gear 3312 through a first transmission shaft 3314. Further, the first fixing frame 3311 is also connected to a first fixing member 3315. Bearings 3316 are installed on both the front and rear sides of the member 3315. The first transmission shaft 3314 links the first transmission gear 3313 and the main driving gear 3312 through the above-mentioned two bearings. The active drive component 331 and the driven drive component 332 include a second fixed frame 3321 fixed to the other side of the transmission base 34 away from the active drive component 331 and a driven wheel 3322 arranged on the second fixed frame 3321. The first transmission gear 3313 and the driven wheel 3322 are linked through the above-mentioned synchronous belt 333. The synchronous member 35 of this embodiment is a synchronous rack, and synchronous gears 361 meshing with the synchronous member 35 are arranged on both sides of the drive rod 36.

[0035] like Figure 5 As shown, the driving module 31 of this embodiment includes a motor fixing bracket 311 fixed to the inside of the kitchen appliance body 1, a driving motor 312 fixed on the motor fixing bracket 311, and a second transmission gear 313 connected to the driving motor 312. The second transmission gear 313 is connected to the first transmission gear 3313 through a gear belt 314.

[0036] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a fixing component 362 is connected to the middle section of the driving rod 36, and the fixing component 362 is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt 333. The above-mentioned fixing component 362 includes a second fixing member 3621 and a third fixing member 3622. The second fixing member 3621 is a cylindrical structure and is sleeved on the middle position of the driving rod 36. Recesses 36211 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the second fixing member 3621. The third fixing member 3622 is a frame structure. The third fixing member 3622 is inserted into the recessed portion 36211 and connected to the second fixing member 3621. Concave snap-in grooves 36221 are formed at both ends of the third fixing member 3622, and the snap-in grooves 36221 wrap the synchronous belt 333 to achieve linkage.

[0037] In order to ensure that the drive rod 36 drives the drawer door 23 and the accuracy of its movement, a limit portion 341 is extended upward on the side wing of the transmission base 34, and a semi-circular arc groove 3411 is provided on the limit portion 341. The drive rod 36 passes through the semi-circular arc groove 3411 and is connected to the drawer door assembly 2. It also includes a connecting piece 24, and the two ends of the drive rod 36 are provided with threads. One end of the connecting piece 24 is connected to the slide rail support frame 22, and the other end of the connecting piece 24 is connected to the end of the drive rod 36 through a bolt. Signal collecting devices are provided at both ends, which may be limit sensors, etc. By setting the semicircular arc groove 3411, the end of the driving rod 36 can avoid shaking up and down due to external force when moving, and the moving stroke of the driving rod 36 can be accurately limited to avoid the drawer door 23 from derailing. A signal collecting device is further provided. When the driving rod 36 reaches the specified position, the signal collecting device will give a signal to the driving motor 312, thereby stopping the door opening and closing action.

[0038] The working principle of the present invention is briefly described as follows: when the drawer door 23 needs to be opened, the driving motor 312 is started, and the second transmission gear 313 and the main driving gear 3312 are driven to rotate in sequence. The first transmission gear 3313 is driven by the main driving gear 3312 to drive the first transmission gear 3313 to rotate, and then the first transmission gear 3313 drives the synchronous belt 333 to rotate. A driven wheel 3322 is arranged on the other side of the synchronous belt 333 to assist the rotation of the synchronous belt 333. The driving rod 36 is fixedly connected with the synchronous belt 333 through the cooperation of the second fixing member 3621 and the third fixing member 3622, so that the driving rod 36 will move forward with the synchronous belt 333, especially the synchronous gears 361 arranged on both sides of the driving rod 36 are meshed with the synchronous member 35, so that the two sides of the driving rod 36 can realize synchronous movement, and the occurrence of asynchronous situation can be avoided. At the same time, the two ends of the driving rod 36 drive the drawer door 23 to move outward along the slide rail 21 through the connecting member 24 to realize the opening of the drawer door 23. When closing the door, only the motor needs to run in reverse.

[0039] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
