Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of racket storage device technology, specifically, a badminton racket storage and cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] In the university physical education system, the configuration and management of sports equipment are crucial factors affecting the quality of physical education and student participation. As the main body of education, universities need to create favorable hardware conditions for participation in physical exercise by improving the physical education environment and enhancing the management of sports equipment. Badminton, due to its high appeal, low barrier to entry, and significant fitness benefits, is widely used in university public physical education courses and extracurricular sports activities, and is currently one of the key sports being developed. With the continuous expansion of badminton courses in universities, the storage, maintenance, and management of badminton rackets, as commonly used teaching equipment, are becoming increasingly prominent issues. Especially in scenarios such as centralized teaching, class rotation, and after-class open use, badminton rackets need to be stored uniformly, and their usage frequency is high and turnover is rapid. Without proper storage and cleaning conditions, sweat and dirt easily accumulate on the racket handle surface, and dust easily adheres to the net surface, not only affecting the teaching experience but also hindering the long-term use and hygiene management of the equipment.

[0003] Currently, badminton racket management primarily relies on simple storage methods, such as using upright racket stands or enclosed lockers. These devices typically only provide basic storage and cannot meet the needs of cleaning and maintenance. In practice, cleaning badminton rackets often requires manual wiping or centralized washing, which is tedious and inefficient, especially during peak teaching periods. Furthermore, frequent handling of rackets can cause damage to the racket frames and shafts, shortening the equipment's lifespan. For universities, achieving large-capacity storage and convenient retrieval of badminton rackets within limited space and management constraints, as well as enabling daily cleaning and maintenance without removing the rackets during storage, is crucial for improving the standardized management and use of sports equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a badminton racket storage and cleaning device.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] A badminton racket storage and cleaning device includes a box body with an opening and a cover at the opening. Inside the box body are several support plates for fixing and supporting the badminton rackets. The box body and / or the cover are provided with rinsing holes for rinsing the badminton rackets stored in the device.

[0007] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, the number of support plates is a rows and b columns, and the number of a or b is greater than or equal to 1.

[0008] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, preferably, the support plate is hinged to the box body, and the support plate is connected to the cover body via a co-rotating device.

[0009] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, the co-rotating device is a gear set, which meshes with gears on the hinged shaft of the support plate and the cover.

[0010] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, preferably, the co-rotating device is a connector. Between the support plate and the cover in the first row, one end of the connector is connected to the cover and the other end is connected to the support plate; between the two support plates, both ends of the connector are connected to the two support plates respectively.

[0011] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, preferably, the connecting member is a rubber band, and the number of rubber bands is greater than or equal to two, and the distance between the two rubber bands is less than 0.6 cm.

[0012] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, preferably, the support plate is divided into a support area and a hollow area, and the connector is connected to a perforated plate at a position close to the lower hollow area.

[0013] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, the support area is further described as a perforated plate.

[0014] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, the quantity of a is 1-20, and the quantity of b is 1-10.

[0015] In the badminton racket storage and cleaning device described above, the rinsing holes are further provided on the front, back, left, right, bottom, or cover surfaces of the box, or any two or more of these six surfaces.

[0016] The advantages of this invention are:

[0017] 1. By incorporating a box with a rinsing hole, an opening on the top of the box, a cover at the opening, and a support plate inside the box to secure and support the badminton rackets, used rackets can be stored on the support plate inside the box. When cleaning is needed, the entire device is moved to the cleaning area, and cleaning fluid is used to rinse away sweat, dirt, and dust from the handles and nets through the rinsing hole. This design allows for routine cleaning of badminton rackets simply by placing them in the storage device, eliminating the need to take the rackets out and put them back in during cleaning, thus simplifying the daily cleaning process.

[0018] 2. The support plate and the cover are connected by a co-rotating device, so that the support plate and the cover rotate in the same direction. When the cover is opened manually, the support plate rotates upward under the drive of the co-rotating device. The free end of the support plate is located in the opening 101 area or in the outer area of ​​the box. At this time, the badminton racket on the support plate can be taken out directly, or the used badminton racket can be stored in the support plate in different positions. The operation of taking out or storing is more convenient and quick.

[0019] 3. The advantages of using multiple rubber belts as a co-rotating device are: on the one hand, the support plate and the cover can be rotated synchronously by the rubber belts, making it convenient to pick up and put away badminton rackets after the cover is opened; on the other hand, the racket shaft can be clamped by multiple rubber belts, reducing the shaking or bumping of the badminton racket during storage and retrieval.

[0020] 4. The design of the support area and connectors ensures that the badminton racket shaft and handle automatically align with the hollowed-out area during storage. The shaft and handle remain suspended and do not contact the support components, allowing for multi-angle rinsing through the rinsing holes at different locations during cleaning. This ensures a more thorough cleaning and prevents liquid buildup on the shaft and handle.

[0021] In summary, the badminton racket storage and cleaning device of the present invention can achieve large-capacity storage and convenient retrieval of badminton rackets even in limited space. It can easily fix badminton rackets during storage, and can perform daily cleaning and maintenance of the rackets stored inside without removing them during storage. It can rinse the racket handle at different angles, and will not accumulate liquid on the racket shaft and handle, making the cleaning more complete and thorough. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the description of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.

[0033] Example

[0034] This embodiment provides a badminton racket storage and cleaning device for centralized storage of used badminton rackets and for daily cleaning of the rackets stored in the device without removing them during storage. As shown in Figure 1, the badminton racket storage and cleaning device includes a box 100, with an opening 101 on the upper side of the box for inserting or removing badminton rackets. A cover 200 is provided at the opening and hinged to the box. The cover can be opened (as shown in Figure 1) or closed (as shown in Figure 1) by rotating it. Figure 3(As shown in the diagram) Opening. The box contains several support plates 300 for fixing and supporting badminton rackets, wherein the number of support plates is a rows and b columns, and the number of a or b is greater than or equal to 1. Preferably, the number of a can be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, or 20, and preferably the number of b is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 10. Figure 1a This is a schematic diagram of a single-column, four-row support plate structure. Figure 1b Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a structure with two columns and four rows of support plates, each capable of supporting one badminton racket. Figure 1 exemplarily illustrates the number of support plates. Those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of this invention, can devise schemes with varying numbers of support plates to accommodate different numbers of badminton rackets. For example, a 3-row, 3-column arrangement of support plates can be used to simultaneously store nine badminton rackets. These different number arrangements are all within the scope of protection of this invention. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the housing and / or lid are provided with rinsing holes 102 for rinsing the badminton rackets stored inside the device. These rinsing holes can be located on one or more sides of the housing, or combined or individually on the lid. For example, the rinsing holes can be located on... Figure 3 The front, back, left, right, bottom, or lid surface of the box, or any two or more of these six surfaces, are shown. In a preferred embodiment, the flushing hole is located at... Figure 3 The front, back, right side, and lid surfaces of the box are shown. The rinsing hole can cover the entire area of ​​each surface or only a portion thereof. When the rinsing hole covers a partial area, preferably the partial area refers to the area corresponding to the badminton racket storage location.

[0035] In the solutions provided in the above embodiments, by setting up a box with a rinsing hole, an opening on the upper side of the box, a cover at the opening, and a support plate inside the box to fix and support the badminton rackets, the used badminton rackets can be stored together on the support plate inside the box. When it is necessary to clean the badminton rackets, the entire device is moved to the cleaning area, and cleaning fluid is used to rinse away sweat, dirt, dust, etc. from the handle or net through the rinsing hole. The above technical solution allows for daily cleaning of badminton rackets simply by placing them in the storage device, avoiding the need to take the rackets out and put them back in during the cleaning process, thus simplifying the daily cleaning procedure.

[0036] When storing a large number of badminton rackets, to facilitate storage and retrieval, the support plate is hinged to the box body and can rotate around the hinge end 103. The support plate and the cover are connected by a co-rotating device. This co-rotation means that when the cover is rotated upwards to open, the support plate rotates upwards around the hinge end under the action of the co-rotating device, so that the free end of the support plate is located in the opening 101 area or in the outer area of ​​the box body (as shown in Figure 1 and 2). Figure 7 (As shown in the diagram). In one specific embodiment of the present invention, the co-rotating device is a gear set, which meshes with gears on the hinged shaft of the support plate and the cover. When the hinged shaft of the cover rotates, it drives the hinged shaft of the support plate to rotate in the same direction through gear meshing. In another preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in the diagram... Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the co-rotating device is a rigid or flexible connector 104. Between the support plate and the cover in the first row, one end of the connector is connected to the cover, and the other end is connected to the support plate. Between the two support plates, both ends of the connector are connected to the two support plates respectively. When the cover rotates upward to open, the support plate rotates upward around the hinge end under the drive of the connector, so that the free end of the support plate is located in the opening 101 area or in the area outside the box (as shown in Figure 1 and...). Figure 7 As shown in the diagram, when the cover is rotated downwards to close, the support plate rotates downwards around the hinge end under its own weight to return to the horizontal position (as shown). Figure 3 and Figure 6 (as shown in the diagram). In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the connector may be a connecting strip made of polymer material or metal material, such as a rubber strip or a thin steel wire.

[0037] In the technical solution provided in the above embodiments, the support plate and the cover are connected by a co-rotating device, allowing the support plate and the cover to rotate in the same direction. When the cover is manually opened, the support plate rotates upward under the drive of the co-rotating device, and the free end of the support plate is located in the opening 101 area or in the outer area of ​​the box. At this time, the badminton racket on the support plate can be directly taken out, or the used badminton racket can be stored in the support plate in different positions, making the taking out or storing operations more convenient and quick. When the cover is rotated downward to close, the support plate and the badminton racket automatically retract into the inside of the box, allowing the badminton racket inside the box to be stored or cleaned routinely.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, attached Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the badminton racket storage and cleaning device after removing the cover. Figure 5This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure after removing the cover and box. The connecting component is a rubber band, and the number of rubber bands is greater than or equal to two, preferably two or four. When there are two rubber bands, the ends of the two rubber bands are located on both sides of the badminton racket shaft, and the distance between the two rubber bands is less than 0.6cm; when there are four rubber bands, the four rubber bands are divided into two groups, and the ends of the two groups of rubber bands are located on both sides of the badminton racket shaft, and the distance between the two rubber bands is less than 0.6cm. The overall length of currently used badminton rackets does not exceed 68cm, the maximum width of the racket head is 23cm, the shaft length is 20-22cm, the outer diameter of the shaft is 6.5-7.5mm, and the handle length is 16-17cm. The advantages of using multiple rubber bands as a co-rotating device are: on the one hand, the support plate and the cover can be rotated synchronously by the rubber bands, making it convenient to pick up and put away badminton rackets after the cover is opened; on the other hand, the racket shaft can be clamped by multiple rubber bands, reducing the shaking or bumping of the badminton racket during storage and retrieval.

[0039] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the support plate is divided into a support area 301 and a hollow area 302. The support area is a perforated plate and is connected to the hinge end via connecting rods 303 on both sides. The support area corresponds to the head area of ​​the badminton racket, and the hollow area corresponds to the shaft and handle area. The connector is connected to the perforated plate near the lower hollow area. With the hollow area and connector, during the storage of the badminton racket as shown in Figure 1, when the shaft and handle are inserted between the two connectors, the racket head is blocked by the connector in the support area because the width of the racket head is much larger than the outer diameter of the shaft and handle. The shaft and handle automatically align with the hollow area.

[0040] In the technical solutions provided in the above embodiments, the support area and connectors ensure that the badminton racket shaft and handle automatically align with the perforated area during racket storage. Since the handle area is the part of the badminton racket that requires concentrated cleaning, sweat and dirt from the user's hands adhere to the grip area during racket use, requiring thorough cleaning from different angles. If the handle and head are placed together on the perforated plate of the support area, cleaning is difficult at the contact point, and liquid accumulates near the contact area. This embodiment automatically aligns the shaft and handle with the perforated area, suspending them from contact with the support components. During cleaning, the shaft and handle can be rinsed through the rinsing holes at different locations, resulting in a more complete and thorough cleaning.

[0041] The method of using this invention is as follows: Flip the cover upwards to open it; the support plate rotates upwards under the action of the connector, with the tail of the support plate located in the opening area or outside the box (as shown in Figure 1 and...). Figure 7 (As shown in the diagram), the badminton racket can be directly removed from the support plate, or the handle of the used racket can be inserted between the two connectors. Due to the obstruction of the connectors, the racket head corresponds to the support area, and the handle and shaft correspond to the hollow area. The shaft is fixed to the support plate by the clamping action of the two connectors. When the cover is rotated downwards to close, the support plate and badminton racket automatically retract into the box, allowing the badminton racket inside the box to be stored. When it is necessary to clean the badminton racket, move the entire device to the cleaning area and use cleaning fluid through the rinsing holes to rinse away sweat, dirt, dust, etc. from the handle or net.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and additions without departing from the method of the present invention, and these improvements and additions should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
