Detailed Implementation
[0057] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0058] Unless otherwise specified, the first direction in this application is the up-down direction; the second direction is the front-back direction; and the third direction is the left-right direction.
[0059] This application discloses a drawer 10, which is used in storage devices.
[0060] The following is for reference. Figures 1-17Drawer 10 according to an embodiment of this application is described.
[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, drawer 10 includes: drawer body 11, decorative cover 12 and handle 13.
[0062] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the drawer body 11 defines an accommodating space 113 that opens in a first direction; the decorative cover 12 is snapped onto the drawer body 11 in a second direction, the first direction and the second direction intersect, and an opening 101 is formed between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer 10 panel that opens in the first direction; the handle 13 forms a recess 134 suitable for operation, the handle 13 is connected between the drawer body 11 and the decorative cover 12, the handle 13 is used to block the opening 101, and the handle 13 is snapped onto the drawer body 11.
[0063] The drawer 10 has a storage space 113 for storing items; a decorative cover 12 for beautifying the appearance of the drawer 10 and concealing the internal structure; and a handle 13 with a recess 134 for easy access by holding the recess 134 to open and close the drawer 10.
[0064] To further enhance the appearance of the decorative cover 12, a brushed finish is applied to the surface of the decorative cover 12. Specifically, the surface of the decorative cover 12 can be brushed using a UV texture transfer process, which involves spraying paint onto the surface of the decorative cover 12 and then scraping the paint to form a brushed texture before UV curing, resulting in a distinct brushed texture. Alternatively, the surface of the decorative cover 12 can be brushed using a surface coating process.
[0065] The engagement method between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 may include, but is not limited to, groove engagement, wedge engagement, hook engagement, spring engagement, snap engagement, or a combination of two or more of the above, and is not limited here.
[0066] For example, in some embodiments, the engagement method between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 includes hook engagement, groove engagement, and a combination of snap-fit engagement.
[0067] The engagement method between the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 may include, but is not limited to, groove engagement, wedge engagement, hook engagement, spring engagement, snap engagement, or a combination of two or more of the above. No restrictions are imposed here.
[0068] For example, in some embodiments, the engagement method between the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 includes a combination of hook engagement and snap engagement.
[0069] In related technologies, drawers are often constructed using screws to connect the drawer body, decorative cover, and handles. While this method provides stable structural support, it also has significant limitations. First, screws and other fasteners occupy internal drawer space, especially in space-constrained applications. This space occupation significantly reduces the drawer's volume utilization rate and limits its storage capacity. Second, screw connections often require drilling in multiple locations within the drawer, increasing processing difficulty and cost, and potentially impacting the overall structural strength of the drawer. Furthermore, over time, screws may loosen, affecting the drawer's stability and lifespan.
[0070] In actual implementation, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the assembly process of drawer 10 can be as follows: First, the decorative cover 12 can be aligned with the front surface of the drawer body 11, and the decorative cover 12 can be snapped into the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction. After the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 are snapped and fixed, an upward-facing opening 101 can be formed between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11. Then, the handle 13 can be aligned with this opening 101, and the handle 13 can be snapped into the space between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 in the up-down direction, so that the handle 13 can block this opening 101. After the handle 13, the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 are snapped and fixed, the assembly of drawer 10 is completed.
[0071] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the snap-fit connection between the drawer body 11, the decorative cover 12, and the handle 13, solves the problem of screws and other fasteners occupying the internal space of the drawer 10 compared to traditional screw fixing, thereby significantly improving the volume utilization rate of the drawer 10. This optimizes the storage capacity of the drawer 10 under the same volume conditions, eliminates the need for extensive drilling in multiple parts of the drawer 10, increases the overall structural strength of the drawer 10, reduces processing difficulty and production costs, and avoids the risk of loosening of screws and other fasteners after long-term use. This improves the reliability and stability of the drawer 10 and extends its service life.
[0072] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figures 5-6 and Figure 16 As shown, the drawer body 11 includes a drawer drawer 111 connected along the second direction and a mounting bracket 112. The mounting bracket 112 includes a first main body 1121 connected along the second direction and a surrounding frame structure 1122. The surrounding frame structure 1122 is connected to the side of the first main body 1121 away from the receiving space 113. The surrounding frame structure 1122 and the handle 13 are separated along the first direction. The handle 13 is snapped into the first main body 1121. The decorative cover 12 is snapped into the surrounding frame structure 1122.
[0073] like Figure 2 , Figures 5-6 and Figure 16 As shown, the drawer 111 and the mounting bracket 112 can be integrally formed. The drawer 111 does not need to be connected and fixed to the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12. Instead, the assembly is achieved through the mounting bracket 112. The mounting bracket 112 can be composed of a first main body 1121 and a surrounding frame structure 1122. The first main body 1121 can be connected between the front side of the drawer 111 and the rear side of the surrounding frame structure 1122. The surrounding frame structure 1122 can be designed as a structure formed by four side frames. That is, the surrounding frame structure 1122 can include a left side frame, a top side frame, a right side frame, and a bottom side frame connected end to end. At least a portion of the left side frame, the top side frame, the right side frame, and the bottom side frame can be snapped into the decorative cover 12. The upper surface of the surrounding frame structure 1122 can be lower than the upper surface of the first main body 1121. In this way, a part of the first main body 1121 can be connected to the rear side of the surrounding frame structure 1122, and the other part of the first main body 1121 that is higher than the surrounding frame structure 1122 can be snapped into the handle 13.
[0074] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the above-mentioned structural design of the decorative cover 12 being snapped into the frame structure 1122 and the handle 13 being snapped into the first main body 1121, realizes that the decorative cover 12 and the handle 13 are respectively snapped into different areas of the mounting bracket 112, so that the mounting bracket 112 is uniformly stressed, reducing stress concentration, and reducing interference between the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12 and the frame structure 1122, thereby extending the service life of the drawer 10.
[0075] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figures 5-6 and Figures 8-9 As shown, the decorative cover 12 includes a second main body 121 and a first flange 122 and a second flange 123 connected to the two sides of the second main body 121 along a third direction. The first flange 122 and the second flange 123 are folded relative to the second main body 121 toward the direction close to the receiving space 113. The inner wall surfaces of the first flange 122 and the second flange 123 along the third direction are provided with first buckles 125. The outer wall surfaces of the two sides of the frame structure 1122 along the third direction are provided with first slots 11221 for engaging with the first buckles 125.
[0076] In this embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figures 5-6 and Figures 8-9As shown, the first flange 122 and the second flange 123 are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the second main body 121. In the assembled state, the first flange 122 can cover the outer side of the left frame of the frame structure 1122, so that the left frame of the frame structure 1122 is not exposed. The first buckle 125 on the inner surface of the first flange 122 is inserted into the first slot 11221 on the left frame in the front-back direction. The first buckle 125 protrudes inward relative to the first flange 122. The second flange 123 can cover the outer side of the right frame of the frame structure 1122, so that the right frame of the frame structure 1122 is not exposed. The first buckle 125 on the inner surface of the second flange 123 is inserted into the first slot 11221 on the right frame in the front-back direction. The first buckle 125 protrudes inward relative to the second flange 123.
[0077] Among them, such as Figure 5 and Figures 8-9 As shown, the first buckle 125 has a series of toothed protrusions, which can be arranged to form a comb-like or other shape, and the first buckle 125 is designed with an arc-shaped guide surface so that the first buckle 125 can be smoothly engaged with the first slot 11221.
[0078] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the first buckle 125 and the first slot 11221, achieves the initial positioning of the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction. The first flange 122 and the second flange 123 respectively cover the outer side of the left and right sides of the frame structure 1122, so that the left and right sides are not exposed, realizing the seamless integration of the decorative cover 12 and the frame structure 1122. While providing additional support and protection for the connection part, it greatly improves the coverage of the decorative cover 12. In addition, there are no snap-fit marks on the outer surface of the first flange 122 and the second flange 123, that is, the user cannot directly see the connection point of the first buckle 125 and the first slot 11221 from the outside, maintaining the flatness and simplicity of the outer surface of the decorative cover 12. In addition, through the covering effect of the first flange 122 and the second flange 123, the risk of loosening or deformation of the connection part due to external impact or long-term use is reduced, ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the drawer 10.
[0079] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6-10 As shown, the decorative cover 12 includes a second main body 121 and a third flange 124 connected to the second main body 121 along the first direction and away from the opening 101. The third flange 124 is folded relative to the second main body 121 toward the direction close to the receiving space 113. The inner wall surface of the third flange 124 along the first direction is provided with a second buckle 126. The outer wall surface of the frame structure 1122 along the first direction and away from the opening 101 is provided with a second slot 11222 for engaging with the second buckle 126.
[0080] In this embodiment, such as Figures 6-10 As shown, the third flange 124 is connected to the lower side of the second main body 121. When assembled, the third flange 124 can cover the outer side of the lower frame of the frame structure 1122, so that the lower frame of the frame structure 1122 is not exposed. The second buckle 126 on the inner surface of the third flange 124 is inserted into the second slot 11222 on the lower frame in the front-back direction. The second buckle 126 protrudes inward relative to the third flange 124.
[0081] Among them, such as Figures 6-10 As shown, the second buckle 126 has a series of toothed protrusions, which can be arranged to form a comb-like or other shape, and the second buckle 126 is designed with an arc-shaped guide surface so that the second buckle 126 can be smoothly engaged with the second buckle slot 11222.
[0082] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the second buckle 126 and the second slot 11222, further limits the front-to-back direction of the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11. The third flange 124 covers the outer side of the lower frame of the frame structure 1122, so that the lower frame is not exposed, further realizing the seamless integration of the decorative cover 12 and the frame structure 1122. While providing additional support and protection for the connection part, it maximizes the coverage of the decorative cover 12. Moreover, there are no snap marks on the outer surface of the third flange 124, that is, the user cannot directly see the connection point of the second buckle 126 and the second slot 11222 from the outside, thus maintaining the flatness and simplicity of the outer surface of the decorative cover 12 to the greatest extent. In addition, through the covering effect of the third flange 124, the risk of loosening or deformation of the connection part due to external impact or long-term use is reduced, ensuring the long-term stability and reliability of the drawer 10.
[0083] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6-7 and Figure 10 As shown, the outer wall of the frame structure 1122 along the first direction and away from the opening 101 is provided with a guide groove 11224. The guide groove 11224 and the second slot 11222 are spaced apart and arranged opposite to each other along the first direction. The guide groove 11224 is open in both the direction away from the receiving space 113 and the direction away from the opening 101. The guide groove 11224 is inclined along the second direction and close to the wall of the second slot 11222.
[0084] It is understandable that, such as Figures 6-7 and Figure 10As shown, the open design of the guide groove 11224 provides an intuitive guide path for the installation of the third flange 124. When connecting the third flange 124 of the decorative cover 12 to the frame structure 1122, the third flange 124 can be more easily slid in along the guide groove 11224 until it reaches the correct installation position. This design helps reduce misoperation during installation and improves installation efficiency and accuracy. At the same time, the presence of the guide groove 11224 also plays a positioning role, helping the second buckle 126 on the third flange 124 to accurately engage with the second buckle 11222. The smooth transition and inclined design of the guide groove 11224 also helps reduce friction and stress concentration between the third flange 124 and the frame structure 1122 during installation. This helps alleviate problems such as noise, wear and deformation that may occur during installation, and improves the durability and reliability of the drawer 10.
[0085] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment of the application provides an intuitive guide path for the installation of the third flange 124 through the aforementioned guide groove 11224, which helps to reduce misoperation during the installation process, improve installation efficiency and accuracy, and at the same time helps the second buckle 126 on the third flange 124 to accurately engage with the second buckle groove 11222. It also helps to reduce friction and stress concentration between the third flange 124 and the frame structure 1122 during the installation process, which helps to alleviate problems such as noise, wear and deformation that may occur during the installation process, and improves the durability and reliability of the drawer 10.
[0086] In some embodiments, such as Figures 4-6 and Figures 8-9 As shown, the decorative cover 12 is provided with a first snap-fit structure 127 on the wall near the receiving space 113, and the frame structure 1122 is provided with a second snap-fit structure 11223 for cooperating with the first snap-fit structure 127 along one side of the frame structure 1122 in the first direction and near the opening 101.
[0087] The first snap-fit structure 127 can be set to one or more, and the second snap-fit structure 11223 can be set to one or more, where "multiple" means two or more.
[0088] For example, in some embodiments, such as Figures 5-6 and Figure 8 As shown, four first snap-fit structures 127 are provided, and correspondingly, four second snap-fit structures 11223 are also provided.
[0089] In this embodiment, such as Figures 4-6 and Figures 8-9As shown, the first snap-fit structure 127 is a snap hook, and the second snap-fit structure 11223 is a snap hole. The snap hook is located on the wall of the second main body 121 near the receiving space 113. The hook body faces downward and is hooked to the snap hole on the upper frame of the frame structure 1122.
[0090] In other embodiments, the first snap-fit structure 127 is a snap-fit, and the second snap-fit structure 11223 is a slot.
[0091] In some other embodiments, the first snap-fit structure 127 is an elastic clip, and the second snap-fit structure 11223 is a slot.
[0092] In some other embodiments, the first snap-fit structure 127 is a pin, and the second snap-fit structure 11223 is a socket.
[0093] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the above-mentioned first snap-fit structure 127 and second snap-fit structure 11223, combined with the above-mentioned first buckle 125, first slot 11221, second buckle 126 and second slot 11222, achieves multiple limiting of the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 in the front and rear directions. The four sides of the frame structure 1122 are snap-fitted to the decorative cover 12, and a firm connection is formed between the decorative cover 12 and the frame structure 1122, which can effectively resist external impact and vibration, prevent the decorative cover 12 from loosening or falling off during use, thereby improving the overall stability and reliability of the decorative cover 12. In addition, the first snap-fit structure 127 and the second snap-fit structure 11223 are hidden between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11, which will not damage the overall appearance of the decorative cover 12. After installation, it is difficult for the user to notice the existence of the first snap-fit structure 127 and the second snap-fit structure 11223, thereby maintaining the cleanliness of the appearance of the drawer 10.
[0094] In some embodiments, such as Figures 5-7 As shown, the mounting bracket 112 also includes: a partition 1123.
[0095] like Figures 5-10 As shown, the partition 1123 is connected to the first main body 1121 along the second direction, and the two ends of the partition 1123 are connected between the two side frames of the frame structure 1122 along the third direction. The third direction intersects the first direction and the second direction. The partition 1123 and the side frame of the frame structure 1122 along the first direction and away from the opening 101 form a first limiting groove 1124. The decorative cover 12 is provided with a first limiting protrusion 1212 that limits and cooperates with the first limiting groove 1124 along the first direction.
[0096] In this embodiment, such as Figures 5-10As shown, the partition 1123 is connected between the left and right side frames of the frame structure 1122, and the partition 1123 and the lower side frame of the frame structure 1122 form a first limiting groove 1124. The first limiting protrusion 1212 is disposed on the wall of the second main body 121 near the receiving space 113. After the decorative cover 12 is inserted into the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction, the first buckle 125 engages with the first slot 11221, the second hook 1332 engages with the second slot 11222, the first engaging structure 127 engages with the second engaging structure 11223, and the first limiting protrusion 1212 extends into the first limiting groove 1124. The partition 1123 can restrict the first limiting protrusion 1212 from moving upward, and the lower side frame of the frame structure 1122 can restrict the first limiting protrusion 1212 from moving downward.
[0097] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the aforementioned partition 1123, first limiting groove 1124, and first limiting protrusion 1212, combined with the aforementioned second buckle 126 and second slot 11222, achieves the limiting of the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction and the up-down direction, so that the first limiting protrusion 1212 and the second buckle 126 form a limiting and interlocking relationship, making the connection between the decorative cover 12 and the drawer body 11 more solid, effectively limiting the deformation of the decorative cover 12 after installation, preventing gap problems caused by material aging, wear and tear, etc., maintaining the cleanliness and sealing of the drawer 10's appearance, and improving the accuracy and reliability of the decorative cover 12 when installed on the drawer body 11. This precise fitting method helps to reduce assembly errors. In addition, the addition of the partition 1123 not only strengthens the overall strength of the mounting bracket 112, but also provides additional support in key parts of the drawer body 11 through its connection with the frame structure 1122. This helps to resist the impacts and twists that drawer 10 may suffer during daily use, increasing the structural stability of drawer 10.
[0098] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the handle 13 includes a first means 131, a second means 132 and a third means 133 connected sequentially along the second direction. The first means 131 is snapped into the first main body 1121, the second means 132 is connected to the first flange 122 and the second flange 123, and the third means 133 is snapped into the second main body 121.
[0099] It is understood that, based on the mounting bracket 112 including a first main body 1121 and a surrounding frame structure 1122, the first means 131 can be engaged with the part of the first main body 1121 that protrudes upward from the surrounding frame structure 1122 to realize the assembly between the handle 13 and the drawer body 11, and the second means 132 can be separately set from the surrounding frame structure 1122 so as not to interfere with each other; based on the decorative cover 12 including a second main body 121, a first flange 122, a second flange 123 and a third flange 124, the first means 131 can be engaged with the second main body 121, and the second means 132 can be connected to the first flange 122 and the second flange 123 to realize the assembly between the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12.
[0100] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the first means 131, the second means 132 and the third means 133, is segmented and each segment connects to different parts of the drawer body 11 and the decorative cover 12. The overall structure of the handle 13 is more stable, which can effectively disperse external forces and reduce the force concentration at a single position, thereby improving the overall durability and reliability of the handle 13. At the same time, since the handle 13 is designed as multiple independently operable segments, it increases its adaptability in different application scenarios, thereby increasing the flexibility and diversity of the handle 13 in design. In addition, since the handle 13 is designed to be more humanized and conforms to ergonomic principles, it can provide a better grip and operating experience.
[0101] In some embodiments, such as Figures 4-5 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the first means 131 includes a first main body segment 1311 and a first hook 1312. The first main body segment 1311 is connected between the second means 132 and the first hook 1312. The first main body 1121 is provided with a third slot 11211 along the first direction and near the opening 101 for engaging with the first hook 1312.
[0102] In this embodiment, such as Figures 4-5 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the first main body segment 1311 abuts against the side of the first main body 1121 away from the receiving space 113. The first main body segment 1311 is arranged in the vertical direction. The hook of the first hook 1312 faces downward. The third slot 11211 is provided on the side of the first main body 1121 near the receiving space 113. The third slot 11211 is located on the upper edge of the wall of the first main body 1121 near the receiving space 113. The first hook 1312 and the third slot 11211 engage to limit the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction.
[0103] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the first hook 1312 and the third slot 11211, realizes the limitation of the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the front and rear direction. The snap-fit design makes the installation and disassembly process between the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 simple and quick. The handle 13 can be easily installed and disassembled without the use of special tools or complicated operating steps. This not only improves production efficiency, but also facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the drawer 10.
[0104] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 11 and Figures 13-17 As shown, the first hook 1312 is provided with a second limiting protrusion 13121, and the inner wall surface of the first main body 1121 near the accommodating space 113 along the first direction is provided with a third limiting protrusion 11212 for limiting and cooperating with the second limiting protrusion 13121 along the first direction.
[0105] In this embodiment, such as Figure 5 , Figure 11 and Figures 13-17 As shown, the second limiting protrusion 13121 protrudes from the first hook 1312 in a direction away from the receiving space 113, and the third limiting protrusion 11212 protrudes from the first main board body 1121 in a direction close to the receiving space 113. The upper surface of the second limiting protrusion 13121 abuts against the upper surface of the third limiting protrusion 11212 to limit the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the vertical direction.
[0106] Among them, one or more second limiting protrusions 13121 can be set, and one or more third limiting protrusions 11212 can be set, where multiple means two or more.
[0107] For example, in some embodiments, four second limiting protrusions 13121 are provided, and correspondingly, four third limiting protrusions 11212 are also provided.
[0108] For example, in some other embodiments, one second limiting protrusion 13121 is provided, and multiple third limiting protrusions 11212 are provided. The second limiting protrusion 13121 extends along a third direction to both sides of the first hook 1312 along the third direction, and one second limiting protrusion 13121 and multiple third limiting protrusions 11212 are mutually limiting and cooperating in the up and down direction.
[0109] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the second limiting protrusion 13121 and the third limiting protrusion 11212, combined with the setting of the first hook 1312 and the third slot 11211, realizes the dual limiting of the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction and the up-down direction, further improving the stability and reliability of the connection, making it less likely for the handle 13 to fall off or loosen when subjected to external force.
[0110] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 , Figure 12 and Figures 15-17 As shown, the first hook 1312 is provided with a second limiting groove 13122, and the inner wall surface of the first main body 1121 along the first direction and close to the receiving space 113 is provided with a fourth limiting protrusion 11213 for limiting and cooperating with the second limiting groove 13122 along the third direction.
[0111] In this embodiment, such as Figure 5 , Figure 12 and Figures 15-17 As shown, the second limiting groove 13122 is disposed between two adjacent second limiting protrusions 13121, and the second limiting groove 13122 is open in the direction away from the receiving space 113 and in the direction close to the frame structure 1122, that is, the second limiting groove 13122 is open in the direction forward and downward. The second limiting groove 13122 is located at the center position of the first hook 1312 in the left-right direction. The fourth limiting protrusion 11213 protrudes relative to the first main body 1121 in the direction close to the receiving space 113. The fourth limiting protrusion 11213 is located at the center position of the first main body 1121 in the left-right direction. The fourth limiting protrusion 11213 and the second limiting groove 13122 can be positioned and engaged to realize the centered setting of the handle 13 and the limiting of the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the left-right direction.
[0112] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment achieves triple limiting of the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction, up-down direction, and left-right direction by setting the fourth limiting protrusion 11213 and the second limiting groove 13122, combined with the second limiting protrusion 13121, the third limiting protrusion 11212, the first hook 1312 and the third slot 11211. This maximizes the interlocking between the handle 13 and the drawer body 11. At the same time, by utilizing the design of center positioning and cooperation of the fourth limiting protrusion 11213 and the second limiting groove 13122, the handle 13 is first centered before subsequent assembly operations, thereby improving the assembly accuracy between the handle 13, the drawer body 11 and the decorative cover 12, and thus reducing assembly errors.
[0113] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-4 , Figures 8-9 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the second means 132 includes a second main body section 1321, an extension section 1322, and an assembly section 1323 connected sequentially along a first direction. The second main body section 1321 is connected between the first means 131 and the third means 133. The assembly section 1323 has a first mounting hole 13231, which penetrates the assembly section 1323 along a third direction. The first flange 122 and the second flange 123 both have a second mounting hole 128 that is opposite to the first mounting hole 13231. The first mounting hole 13231 and the second mounting hole 128 are connected by a threaded connector.
[0114] In this embodiment, such as Figures 3-4 , Figures 8-9 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the second main body section 1321, the extension section 1322, and the assembly section 1323 are connected sequentially in the vertical direction. The second main body section 1321, the extension section 1322, and the assembly section 1323 all extend in the horizontal direction, and the extension section 1322 and the assembly section 1323 are cantilevered relative to the second main body section 1321. The extension section 1322 is vertically connected to the lower surface of the assembly section 1323. The first mounting hole 13231 and the second mounting hole 128 are directly opposite each other in the horizontal direction. The drawer 10 includes two threaded connectors, which are screws. The left end of the first mounting hole 13231 and the second mounting hole 128 on the first flange 122 are fixed by one of the screws, and the right end of the first mounting hole 13231 and the second mounting hole 128 on the second flange 123 are fixed by the other screw.
[0115] In other embodiments, drawer 10 can also be secured with other fasteners, such as using a long pull rod to directly pass through the second mounting holes 128 on the first flange 122, the second mounting holes 128 on the second flange 123 in the left-right direction.
[0116] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment, through the aforementioned first mounting hole 13231, second mounting hole 128, and threaded connector, further enhances the strength and stability of the connection between the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12 on the basis of snap-fit, which helps to resist external loads and vibrations, extend the service life of the drawer 10, and at the same time makes the installation and disassembly process simple and quick. This modular design facilitates maintenance, replacement of parts, or adjustment of the structure, improves the maintainability and flexibility of the drawer 10, and the precise alignment and fastening capability provided by the threaded connector achieves precise alignment and stable connection between the first mounting hole 13231 and the second mounting hole 128.
[0117] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figures 13-14As shown, the longitudinal section of the assembly section 1323 is arc-shaped, and the first mounting hole 13231 is open in the direction away from the opening 101.
[0118] It is understandable that, such as Figures 13-14 As shown, the assembly section 1323 is a partially open, hollow, arc-shaped cylinder. Compared to a common hollow cylinder, it can distribute stress more evenly when bearing loads. This shape helps reduce stress concentration and improves the overall strength and durability of the structure. The open first mounting hole 13231 prevents excessive local stress at the hole edge when tightening threaded fasteners, thereby reducing the risk of cracking. The partially open first mounting hole 13231 makes it easier to insert and tighten threaded fasteners during installation. This design not only simplifies the installation process but also improves installation efficiency and reduces the risk of damage due to improper installation. The arc-shaped cross-section design allows the assembly section 1323 to exhibit better adaptability when subjected to loads in different directions. For example, when subjected to lateral forces, the arc-shaped cross-section can better disperse and resist these forces, reducing structural damage. The open first mounting hole 13231 also allows for fine-tuning or modification when necessary to adapt to different assembly conditions and requirements.
[0119] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment, through the shape design of the assembly section 1323 and the first mounting hole 13231, can distribute stress more evenly when bearing load, which helps to reduce stress concentration and improve the overall strength and durability of the structure. At the same time, the partially open first mounting hole 13231 makes it easier to insert and tighten threaded fasteners, which not only improves installation efficiency and reduces the risk of damage caused by improper installation, but also avoids excessive local stress at the edge of the hole, thereby reducing the risk of cracking. Furthermore, the open first mounting hole 13231 also allows for fine-tuning or correction when necessary to adapt to different assembly conditions and requirements.
[0120] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 , Figures 13-14 and Figures 16-17 As shown, the third means 133 includes a third main body segment 1331 and a second hook 1332. The third main body segment 1331 is connected between the second means 132 and the second hook 1332. The second main body 121 is provided with a fourth slot 1211 along the first direction and near the opening 101 for engaging with the second hook 1332.
[0121] In this embodiment, such as Figure 8 , Figures 13-14 and Figures 16-17As shown, the third main body segment 1331 abuts against the side of the second main body 121 near the receiving space 113. The third main body segment 1331 is inclined. The hook of the first hook 1312 faces downward. The fourth slot 1211 is located on the side of the second main body 121 away from the receiving space 113. The fourth slot 1211 is located on the upper edge of the wall of the second main body 121 away from the receiving space 113. The second hook 1332 and the fourth slot 1211 engage to limit the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12 in the front-back direction.
[0122] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the first hook 1312 and the third slot 11211, achieves the limitation of the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12 in the front and rear directions based on the threaded connection. The snap-fit design makes the installation and disassembly process between the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12 simple and quick. The handle 13 can be easily installed and disassembled without the use of special tools or complicated operating steps. This not only improves production efficiency, but also facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the drawer 10.
[0123] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the third main body segment 1331 is provided with a fifth limiting protrusion 13311, and the inner wall surface of the second main body 121 near the accommodating space 113 along the first direction is provided with a sixth limiting protrusion 1213 for limiting and cooperating with the fifth limiting protrusion 13311 along the first direction.
[0124] In this embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figures 11-14 As shown, the fifth limiting protrusion 13311 protrudes from the third main body segment 1331 in a direction away from the receiving space 113, and the sixth limiting protrusion 1213 protrudes from the second main body segment 121 in a direction close to the receiving space 113. The upper surface of the fifth limiting protrusion 13311 abuts against the upper surface of the sixth limiting protrusion 1213 to limit the handle 13 and the decorative cover 12 in the vertical direction.
[0125] Among them, the fifth limiting protrusion 13311 can be set to one or more, and the sixth protrusion can be set to one or more, with multiple protrusions indicating two or more.
[0126] For example, in some embodiments, five fifth limiting protrusions 13311 are provided, and correspondingly, five sixth limiting protrusions 1213 are also provided.
[0127] The drawer 10 provided in this application embodiment, through the setting of the fifth limiting protrusion 13311 and the sixth limiting protrusion 1213, combined with the setting of the second hook 1332, the fourth slot 1211 and the threaded connector, realizes triple limiting of the handle 13 and the drawer body 11 in the front-back direction, the up-down direction and the left-right direction, further improving the stability and reliability of the connection, making it less likely for the handle 13 to fall off or loosen when subjected to external force.
[0128] In some embodiments, such as Figures 5-7 and Figure 10 As shown, the drawer body 11 also includes a first support rib 1125.
[0129] The first support rib 1125 protrudes in a direction away from the receiving space 113 to stop the decorative cover 12.
[0130] In this embodiment, such as Figures 5-7 and Figure 10 As shown, the first support rib 1125 protrudes from the side of the first main body 1121 away from the receiving space 113. The first support rib 1125 is located between multiple frames of the frame structure 1122. Multiple first support ribs 1125 can be provided. The multiple first support ribs 1125 are distributed crosswise along the vertical and horizontal directions. The side of the first support rib 1125 away from the first main body 1121 has a notch. Each intersection point between the multiple first support ribs 1125 has a notch on all four sides along the vertical and horizontal directions to enhance the support of the multiple cross-shaped first support ribs 1125 for the decorative cover 12.
[0131] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment, through the aforementioned first support rib 1125, can stop the decorative cover 12 when the drawer 10 is subjected to external pressure or increased internal load, thereby preventing the drawer body 11 and the decorative cover 12 from inward deformation. This helps maintain the overall structural and appearance integrity of the drawer 10, extends its service life, and strengthens the lower structure of the drawer body 11, making the drawer body 11 more stable, thus helping to improve the durability of the drawer 10. Furthermore, by utilizing the reasonable layout and notch design of the first support rib 1125, not only is the overall support strength of the drawer body 11 greatly enhanced, providing uniform support force in multiple directions and effectively resisting external pressure and internal load, but the weight of the support rib itself is also cleverly reduced, achieving lightweighting and cost control.
[0132] In some embodiments, such as Figures 5-6 and Figures 11-12 As shown, the drawer body 11 also includes a second support rib 1126.
[0133] The second support rib 1126 protrudes in the direction away from the receiving space 113 and is used to stop the handle 13.
[0134] In this embodiment, such as Figures 5-6 and Figures 11-12 As shown, the second support rib 1126 protrudes from the side of the first main body 1121 away from the receiving space 113. Multiple second support ribs 1126 can be provided. The multiple second support ribs 1126 are spaced apart and parallel in the vertical direction. The multiple second support ribs 1126 can all extend in the horizontal direction. In addition, multiple reinforcing ribs spaced apart in the horizontal direction can also be designed. These reinforcing ribs can all extend in the vertical direction to further increase the structural strength of the second support ribs 1126.
[0135] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment, through the aforementioned provision of the second support rib 1126, can stop the handle 13 when the drawer 10 is subjected to external pressure or increased internal load, thereby preventing the drawer body 11 and handle 13 from inward deformation. This helps maintain the overall structural and appearance integrity of the drawer 10, extends its service life, and at the same time strengthens the upper structure of the drawer body 11, making the drawer body 11 more stable, thereby helping to improve the durability of the drawer 10.
[0136] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 and Figures 8-9 and Figures 11-12 As shown, the decorative cover 12 also includes a third support rib 129.
[0137] The third support rib 129 protrudes towards the direction of the receiving space 113 and is used to stop the handle 13.
[0138] In this embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figures 8-9 and Figures 11-12 As shown, the third support rib 129 protrudes from the side of the second main body 121 near the receiving space 113. Multiple third support ribs 129 can be provided, and the multiple third support ribs 129 are spaced apart and distributed in parallel along the left and right directions. Multiple second support ribs 1126 can all extend along the up and down directions. Reinforcing ribs can also be provided between two adjacent third support ribs 129 to further increase the structural strength of the third support ribs 129.
[0139] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment, through the aforementioned third support rib 129, can stop the handle 13 when the drawer 10 is subjected to external pressure or increased internal load, thereby preventing the decorative cover 12 and handle 13 from deforming inward. This helps maintain the overall structural and appearance integrity of the drawer 10, extends its service life, and at the same time strengthens the overall structure of the decorative cover 12, making it more stable, thus helping to improve the durability of the drawer 10.
[0140] In some embodiments, such as Figures 11-14 As shown, the recess 134 has a plurality of spaced anti-slip ribs 13312 on one side wall near the receiving space 113. The anti-slip ribs 13312 extend along a third direction, and the third direction intersects with the first direction and the second direction.
[0141] Multiple means two or more. For example, in some embodiments, the side wall of the recess 134 near the receiving space 113 is provided with eight spaced-apart anti-slip ribs 13312.
[0142] like Figures 11-14 As shown, multiple anti-slip ribs 13312 are spaced apart along the width direction of the third main body segment 1331, and the anti-slip ribs 13312 extend in the left and right directions.
[0143] The drawer 10 provided in this embodiment of the application, through the aforementioned anti-slip ribs 13312, can increase the friction between the user's hand and the handle 13, effectively preventing slippage or loss of hand due to wet hands or the heavy weight of the drawer 10 when using it. This design improves the stability of the user's grip, making the opening and closing of the drawer 10 safer and more reliable. At the same time, the anti-slip ribs 13312 can also increase the contact area between the user's hand and the handle 13 to a certain extent, providing a more comfortable grip. When operating the drawer 10, the user can feel a more fitting and stable grip experience, thereby improving the overall user satisfaction.
[0144] This application also discloses a storage device.
