[0022] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0023] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that descriptions involving orientations, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., and orientations or positional relationships indicated are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0024] In the description of the present invention, "several" means one or more, "more" means more than two, "greater than", "less than", "exceed" etc. are understood as not including the number itself, and "above", "below", "within" etc. are understood as including the number itself. If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0025] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0026] Storage equipment is a common piece of furniture or equipment used to store various items. Its structure and functional design can be adjusted according to different usage scenarios and needs. Storage equipment usually includes structures such as a box, a door, and a partition. The box includes an outer shell, which is the overall frame of the storage equipment and supports and fixes the entire structure. It is usually made of materials such as metal, wood, and plastic, and has a certain strength and stability, which can protect the items stored inside from damage by the external environment. In some storage devices, the box also includes an inner liner, which is used to further protect the items and may be made of different materials, such as plastic, stainless steel, etc. The structural form of the door body can be a swing door, a sliding door, a folding door, and other forms. The swing door is connected to the box through a hinge and can be opened inward or outward; the sliding door can be pushed and pulled left and right through a track; the folding door is usually composed of multiple door leaves, which can be folded and stored to save space. The partition is used to divide the internal space of the box into grids of different sizes and heights, which is convenient for classified storage of items. The number, position, and height of the partition can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0027] It should be noted that storage equipment can be used in a variety of scenarios to store different types of items, such as a wine cabinet, medicine cabinet, display cabinet or refrigerator, thereby providing a storage environment with corresponding conditions for different types of items.

[0028] In the related art, the depth of the inner space of the box is relatively large, that is, multiple rows of items can be placed along the front and back directions of the box, such as multiple rows of beverages, sauces, etc. The items have a certain height. When there are many items placed, the items in the front row will block the items in the back row. The user needs to cross the items in the front row to take the items in the back row, and then cross the items in the front row to put the items back in the back row. Or the user needs to take the items in the front row and then take the items in the back row, which makes the whole process of taking and putting items more troublesome.

[0029] In order to solve the above problems, various solutions have been produced in the related art, one of which is the turntable solution. As the name implies, the turntable refers to a tray that can rotate around the central axis. This turntable usually has a sturdy and durable structure and is easy to rotate. However, the storage space of the box is usually rectangular, and the circular turntable is placed in the box. When the size of the turntable is small, it can accommodate fewer items, and the distance between the items in the front row and the items in the back row on the turntable is also small, which is not very helpful for taking out the items in the back row. When the size of the turntable is large, it can accommodate more items, and the distance between the items in the front row and the items in the back row on the turntable is also large. The turntable can be rotated to the position of the front row, so as to facilitate the picking and placing of items. However, due to the large size of the turntable, the circumferential distance of the items in the back row will also be long, resulting in low efficiency. Moreover, when the size of the turntable is large, there will be a large space that is difficult to use at the corners of the box, which will result in low space utilization.

[0030] There is also a solution using a guide rail in the related art. Specifically, an inner rail, an outer rail and a plurality of receiving trays are provided. The inner rail and the outer rail are both annular structures. The outer rail is located at the outer periphery of the inner rail. The receiving tray is located between the inner rail and the outer rail. The receiving tray moves cyclically along the annular runway defined by the inner rail and the outer rail. The two ends of the annular runway are semicircular and the middle is linear. Compared with the turntable solution, the diameter of the annular runway of the semicircular part can be designed to be smaller to reduce the free space at the position of the corner of the box. The annular runway of the linear part can fit the side wall of the box to improve the utilization of space. However, the transmission mechanism of this solution is complex, and the manufacturing and maintenance costs are high. In addition, when the size of the receiving tray is fixed and the items are placed on a separate receiving tray, the size of the receiving tray will limit the maximum size of the items that can be stored, and the applicability needs to be improved. Moreover, when the placed items are small, there will be more free space on each receiving tray, and the utilization of space still has room for improvement.

[0031] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 7 , explaining how the storage rack and refrigeration device of the embodiments of the present invention solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that the storage rack of the embodiment of the present invention includes a base 101, a first tray 102, a second tray 103, a transmission member and a guide member 104. The first tray 102 can be rotatably arranged on the base 101, and the second tray 103 can be rotatably arranged on the base 101. Articles can be placed on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103, and the articles can move in a circumferential direction on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103. The transmission member connects the first tray 102 and the second tray 103. The first tray 102 is transmission-connected with the second tray 103 through the transmission member, and the transmission member makes the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 have the same direction of rotation. The guide member 104 is fixedly connected to the base 101, and the guide member 104 includes a guide portion 201. The first tray 102 and the second tray 103 are arranged in a horizontal direction, and the guide portion 201 is located above the line connecting the rotation center of the first tray 102 and the rotation center of the second tray 103.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it can be understood that, taking the first tray 102 being located on the side close to the user and the second tray 103 being located on the side away from the user as an example, when the user rotates the first tray 102, the first tray 102 drives the transmission member to move, and the transmission member then transmits power to the second tray 103, so that the second tray 103 also rotates, and the items on the first tray 102 move in a circular motion along the rotation center of the first tray 102, and the items on the second tray 103 move in a circular motion along the rotation center of the second tray 103. Figure 4The dotted line in the figure is the movement path of the items on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 and on the base 101. When the items on the second tray 103 rotate to a position close to the line connecting the rotation center of the first tray 102 and the rotation center of the second tray 103, the items abut against the guide 104, and the guide 104 blocks the items on the second tray 103 from continuing to perform circular motion along the rotation center of the second tray 103, and instead moves along the guide 104 in a direction away from the rotation center of the second tray 103, that is, the guide 104 moves the items on the second tray 103 to the first tray 102. Similarly, when the items on the first tray 102 rotate to a position close to the position connecting the rotation center of the first tray 102 and the rotation center of the second tray 103, the items abut the guide 104, and the guide 104 prevents the items on the first tray 102 from continuing to make a circular motion along the rotation center of the first tray 102, and instead moves along the guide 104 in a direction away from the rotation center of the first tray 102, that is, the guide 104 moves the items on the first tray 102 to the second tray 103, thereby realizing the circular motion of the items on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that the height of the guide portion 201 is relatively low, so that the bottle of the beverage or sauce contacts the guide portion 201. The shape of the bottle of the beverage or sauce is relatively uniform, and contact with the guide portion 201 helps the beverage or sauce to move smoothly along the guide portion 201.

[0035] The first tray 102 and the second tray 103 of the embodiment of the present invention are in a combined linkage relationship, and the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 are on the same horizontal plane. In addition, the guiding function of the guide member 104 allows the area between the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 to be used for conveying articles, so that the moving area of ​​the articles is no longer limited to a single tray. Figure 4 It can be seen from the figure that the movement distance of the items in the embodiment of the present invention along the direction of the line connecting the rotation center of the first tray 102 and the rotation center of the second tray 103 is the largest, while the movement distance along the direction perpendicular to the line connecting the rotation center of the first tray 102 and the rotation center of the second tray 103 is the smallest. Therefore, the arrangement direction of the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 can be arranged in the depth direction of the box, which facilitates the removal of items in the back row of the box with a large depth, while reducing the space occupied in the left and right directions of the box.

[0036] Reference Figure 4As shown, it can be understood that the movement path of the items on the first tray 102, the second tray 103 and the base 101 is close to a circular runway, and the two ends of the circular runway are semicircular segments, and the middle is a straight line segment, that is, the endpoints of the two semicircular segments are connected by a straight line segment. Correspondingly, the appearance of the base 101 can also be made into the shape of a circular runway, and the diameter of the circular runway in the semicircular segment part can be designed to be smaller to reduce the free space at the corner of the box, and the circular runway in the straight segment part can fit the side wall of the box, improve the utilization rate of the space, and can facilitate the transfer of items in the deep of the box to the side of the box close to the user.

[0037] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the number of trays may be more than three. For example, the storage rack also includes a third tray. The first tray 102, the second tray 103 and the third tray are on the same straight line. The third tray and the second tray 103 are also connected by a transmission member, so that the third tray has the same rotation direction as the second tray 103 and the first tray 102, and the guide portion 201 of the guide member 104 extends above the rotation center of the third tray, so that the items can circulate between the first tray 102, the second tray 103 and the third tray. In other words, the items on the third tray can also be moved to the first tray 102, which is convenient for users to take them.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that the transmission member is a gear 202, and the gear 202 is located between the first tray 102 and the second tray 103. The first tray 102 is provided with a tooth portion 203 meshing with the gear 202, and the second tray 103 is also provided with a tooth portion 203 meshing with the gear 202. In other words, one side of the gear 202 meshes with the tooth portion 203 of the first tray 102, and the other side of the gear 202 meshes with the tooth portion 203 of the second tray 103. When the user rotates the first tray 102, the tooth portion 203 of the first tray 102 also rotates, thereby driving the gear 202 to rotate. At this time, the rotation direction of the first tray 102 is opposite to the rotation direction of the gear 202. After the gear 202 rotates, the second tray 103 is also driven to rotate through the tooth portion 203 of the second tray 103. At this time, the rotation direction of the second tray 103 is opposite to the rotation direction of the gear 202, that is, the rotation direction of the first tray 102 is the same as the rotation direction of the second tray 103. By designing the first tray 102 to have the same rotation direction as the second tray 103, the items on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 move along the same direction, ensuring that the items between the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 can be smoothly transferred from the first tray 102 to the second tray 103, or smoothly transferred from the second tray 103 to the first tray 102.

[0039] It should be noted that the teeth 203 of the first tray 102 can be arranged at the outer diameter edge of the first tray 102 or at the bottom of the first tray 102, and the teeth 203 of the first tray 102 are connected via the connecting portion. Similarly, the teeth 203 of the second tray 103 can be arranged at the outer diameter edge of the second tray 103 or at the bottom of the second tray 103, and the teeth 203 of the second tray 103 are connected via the connecting portion.

[0040] It is understandable that the transmission member can also be a belt, a synchronous belt, or a chain. For example, a first transmission wheel is provided below the first tray 102, a second transmission wheel is provided below the second tray 103, and the belt or synchronous belt is sleeved on the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel; for another example, a first sprocket is provided below the first tray 102, a second sprocket is provided below the second tray 103, and a chain is sleeved on the first sprocket and the second sprocket. The transmission efficiency of gear transmission is extremely high, usually reaching more than 95%. Due to the friction between the belt and the pulley, certain sliding losses and hysteresis losses will be generated, resulting in relatively low transmission efficiency. Although the efficiency of chain transmission is slightly higher than that of belt transmission, it is still lower than that of gear transmission as a whole, and there is a problem of unstable transmission ratio after wear. Gear transmission can withstand large torque and load, and is suitable for occasions requiring high power transmission. It has a compact structure, high strength, and can transmit large torque. Due to the limitation of the belt material, the bearing capacity of belt transmission is relatively weak. In the case of overload, the belt may slip, which plays a protective role, but also limits its ability to transmit torque. Although the chain drive has a stronger load-bearing capacity than the belt drive, there is still a certain gap compared with the gear drive. The gear drive has a compact structure, high manufacturing precision, reliable operation and long service life when installed correctly and reasonably; belts and synchronous belts are prone to wear and aging and need to be replaced regularly; the chain of the chain drive is also prone to wear, elongation and other problems, which affect its service life and transmission accuracy. Belt drives and chain drives usually require a larger space to install tensioning devices and guide devices. Therefore, in comparison, the transmission member of the embodiment of the present invention uses gears 202, which has the advantages of high transmission efficiency, strong load-bearing capacity, long service life and compact structure.

[0041] It can be understood that the transmission part of the embodiment of the present invention adopts the gear 202, which simplifies the transmission structure and reduces the manufacturing and maintenance costs; in addition, the tooth portion 203 of the first tray 102 can be set at the outer diameter edge of the first tray 102. During the rotation process, the user's hand acts on the tooth portion 203 of the first tray 102, which can also increase the friction, facilitate the user's rotation, and enhance the user experience.

[0042] Reference Figure 2As shown, it can be understood that the bottom wall of the base 101 is provided with a first groove 204 and a second groove 205, the bottom of the first groove 204 is lower than the bottom wall, the bottom of the second groove 205 is lower than the bottom wall, the first tray 102 is located in the first groove 204, and the second tray 103 is located in the second groove 205. Figure 1 As shown, the concave space of the first groove 204 accommodates the first tray 102, and makes the top surface and bottom wall of the first tray 102 flush. The concave space of the second groove 205 accommodates the second tray 103, and makes the top surface and bottom wall of the second tray 103 flush. The top surface of the first tray 102 and the top surface of the second tray 103 are flush with the bottom wall, so that when the items are moved to the position between the first tray 102 and the second tray 103, the bottom wall can play a supporting role, so that the items are more stable when they transition between the first tray 102 and the second tray 103, and the overall appearance of the storage rack is more beautiful.

[0043] In the related art, the turntable rotates around the central axis. When the object rotates at the edge of the turntable, the rotation speed of the object is faster and the centrifugal force is greater. In addition, the edge is far from the central axis and has no support, which makes the object easy to shake and fall. In the storage rack of the embodiment of the present invention, when the object moves to the edge of the first tray 102 or the second tray 103, the object is not easy to shake or fall due to the support of the bottom wall.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that the bottom wall is provided with a connecting groove 206, the connecting groove 206 is located between the first groove 204 and the second groove 205, and one side of the connecting groove 206 is connected to the first groove 204, and the other side of the connecting groove 206 is connected to the second groove 205. The gear 202 is located in the connecting groove 206, which can reduce the overall occupied space and make the structure more compact.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, it can be understood that the rack of the embodiment of the present invention also includes a cover plate 207, and the cover plate 207 is connected to the base 101. For example, the cover plate 207 and the base 101 are connected by a snap, which is convenient to install, has low production and maintenance costs, and ensures that the rotation of the gear 202 is not affected. Of course, the cover plate 207 and the base 101 can also be connected by screws, pins, welding, etc. The cover plate 207 covers the gear 202, which can prevent dust and other impurities from entering the gear 202, avoiding damage to the gear 202 or causing malfunctions. And the top surface of the cover plate 207 is flush with the bottom wall, making the overall appearance of the rack more beautiful.

[0046] Reference Figure 7As shown, it can be understood that the cover plate 207 is provided with a third limiting portion 701, and the third limiting portion 701 is located on the side of the cover plate 207 close to the gear 202. The third limiting portion 701 abuts against the gear 202. Since the cover plate 207 is connected and fixed to the base 101, the third limiting portion 701 can press the gear 202 to prevent the gear 202 from moving and ensure the normal operation of the gear 202. The base 101 is also provided with a third mounting shaft 702, and the gear 202 is sleeved on the third mounting shaft 702, so that the gear 202 can rotate around the third mounting shaft 702. The cover plate 207 or the third limiting portion 701 can also be provided with a connecting hole, and the connecting hole is sleeved on the third mounting shaft 702 to facilitate the positioning of the third limiting portion 701, so that the third limiting portion 701 can be evenly pressed on the gear 202, and the gear 202 is prevented from being unevenly stressed and tilting on one side.

[0047] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, it can be understood that the base 101 is provided with a first mounting shaft 208, the first tray 102 is provided with a first through hole 601, and the first mounting shaft 208 is passed through the first through hole 601, so that the first tray 102 can rotate around the first mounting shaft 208. The guide member 104 includes a first rod body 209, the lower end of the first rod body 209 is connected to the first mounting shaft 208, and the upper end of the first rod body 209 is connected to the guide part 201, so as to achieve the fixing of the guide part 201.

[0048] It is understandable that the guide portion 201 can also be connected to the edge of the base 101 or other positions through the first rod 209. When the first rod 209 is connected to the edge of the base 101, the first rod 209 needs to avoid the items on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103. At this time, the height of the first rod 209 can be designed to be relatively high to form an avoidance portion.

[0049] Reference Figure 6 As shown, it can be understood that the lower end of the first rod body 209 is provided with a first limiting portion 604, and the first limiting portion 604 is used to limit the upward movement of the first tray 102. The outer diameter of the first limiting portion 604 is larger than the aperture of the first through hole 601, and the first limiting portion 604 is provided with a first mounting hole, and the first mounting hole is sleeved on the first mounting shaft 208, so as to facilitate the positioning of the first limiting portion 604, so that the first limiting portion 604 can be evenly pressed on the first tray 102, and the phenomenon of one side of the first tray 102 being lifted due to uneven force is prevented.

The guide member 104 and the first mounting shaft 208 can also be connected by screws, pins, welding, etc.

[0051] Reference Figure 2 As shown, it can be understood that the base 101 is provided with a second mounting shaft 210, the second tray 103 is provided with a second through hole, and the second mounting shaft 210 is penetrated through the second through hole, so that the second tray 103 can rotate around the second mounting shaft 210. The guide member 104 includes a second rod body 211, the lower end of the second rod body 211 is connected to the first mounting shaft 208, and the upper end of the second rod body 211 is connected to the guide part 201, so that both ends of the guide part 201 can be fixed and provide stability. In addition, the guide member 104 also has the function of a handle, and the user can pick up the entire rack by grabbing the guide member 104. The guide member 104 is arranged in this way to ensure that the rotation of the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 is not affected.

[0052] It is understandable that the second rod 211 can also be connected to a position such as the edge of the base 101. When the second rod 211 is connected to the edge of the base 101, the second rod 211 needs to avoid items on the first tray 102 and the second tray 103. At this time, the height of the second rod 211 can be designed to be relatively high to form an avoidance portion.

[0053] It is understandable that the second limiting portion 212 is provided at the lower end of the second rod body 211, and the second limiting portion 212 is used to limit the upward movement of the second tray 103. The outer diameter of the second limiting portion 212 is larger than the aperture of the second through hole, and the second limiting portion 212 is provided with a second mounting hole, and the second mounting hole is sleeved on the second mounting shaft 210, so as to facilitate the positioning of the second limiting portion 212, so that the second limiting portion 212 can be evenly pressed on the second tray 103, and the second tray 103 is prevented from being tilted on one side due to uneven force.

[0054] It is understandable that the guide member 104 and the second installation shaft 210 can be connected by snap-fit ​​connection to achieve convenient connection and improve installation efficiency. The guide member 104 and the second installation shaft 210 can also be connected by screws, pins, welding, etc.

[0055] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, it can be understood that the base 101 is provided with a baffle 105, which is arranged around the outer periphery of the first tray 102 and the second tray 103, that is, the baffle 105 is extended along the outer periphery of the base 101, and the height of the baffle 105 is higher than the height of the base 101. The main function of the baffle 105 is to provide additional support and stability, especially in a dynamic environment where the object (such as a beverage bottle or a sauce jar) is in a rotating process. When rotating, the object will generate a certain centrifugal force, which may cause the object to move outward or shake. The existence of the baffle 105 can serve as a physical barrier to limit the shaking range of the object, so that the object can be more stably kept in the original position during the rotation process, reduce the possibility of collision and damage of the object due to shaking, and further ensure the stability of the entire rack. These baffles 105 can effectively prevent the objects from tipping over due to inertia or imbalance, thereby avoiding possible confusion, damage and cleaning troubles.

[0056] Specifically, the optimization effect of the baffle 105 is particularly significant when it comes to the placement of beverages and sauces. Beverage bottles are usually tall and have an unstable center of gravity, while sauce jars may be more likely to tip over due to their irregular shapes. On the shelf, these items are more susceptible to external forces when rotating, thereby increasing the risk of tipping over. However, with the support of the baffle 105, even if the items are subject to certain disturbances during the rotation process, they can remain relatively stable, greatly reducing the possibility of tipping over.

[0057] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, it can be understood that the baffle 105 is provided with a notch 106, part of the first tray 102 is exposed at the notch 106, and the items can be taken out from the notch 106. The notch 106 is usually located on one side or both sides of the baffle 105, so that part of the first tray 102 can be exposed. And the size of the notch 106 is sufficient to facilitate the user to take and put items, while not affecting the overall function of the baffle 105. This design not only maintains the basic function of the baffle 105 in preventing items from tipping over, but also provides convenience for taking and putting items through the notch 106. The notch 106 design improves the visibility of the items on the first tray 102, and the user can quickly find the required items. The user can directly take and put items from the notch 106 without lifting the items before taking them out. Especially when the shelf is placed at a higher position, the notch 106 can significantly improve the convenience of taking and putting items.

[0058] The design of the notch 106 makes it easier for cleaning and maintenance personnel to clean and inspect the rack. They can directly observe the area between the first tray 102 and the second tray 103 through the notch 106, and promptly find and clean up debris, dust, etc., to keep the rack tidy and in good operating condition. The design of the notch 106 also makes it convenient for users to rotate the first tray 102 by hand.

[0059] The storage device of the embodiment of the present invention comprises a box body and a shelf of the embodiment of the present invention, wherein the box body is provided with a storage space, and the shelf is located in the storage space. By adopting the shelf of the embodiment of the present invention, the space utilization rate of the storage device can be improved, and the items in the inner space can be conveniently taken out.

[0060] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
