[0022] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0023] See Figures 1-7 A quick-release structure for a drawer front connecting mechanism and a decorative cover includes a decorative cover 2, which is installed on the housing 1 of the drawer front connecting mechanism. The decorative cover 2 has an open cavity 201, and a sliding connection guide 3 is provided between the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2. During installation, the decorative cover 2 moves laterally relative to the housing 1 through the sliding connection guide 3, so that the housing 1 is inserted into the cavity 201 of the decorative cover 2, thereby achieving quick-release between the two.

[0024] The decorative cover 2 has an open cavity 201. A sliding connection guide 3 is provided between the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2. During installation, the decorative cover 2 can be moved laterally relative to the housing 1 through the sliding connection guide 3 to allow the housing 1 to be inserted into the cavity 201 for quick installation. The housing 1 is fixed on the support member 9 of the side plate 6. The support member 9 is located below the side plate 6. Instead of inserting the housing 1 into the inner cavity of the side plate 6, during installation, the housing 1 can be fixed to the support member 9 with screws first. Then, a fixed housing is installed on the other end of the support member 9. The fixed housing also has a cover. One end of the side plate 6 is inserted into the cover. The installation method of the fixed housing and the cover is similar to that of the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2. Finally, the decorative cover 2 is snapped onto the side plate 6 and moved laterally along the side plate 6 to push the decorative cover 2 into place with the housing 1. In this way, the other end of the side plate 6 is inserted into the cavity 201 of the decorative cover 2, thus fixing both ends of the side plate 6. Compared to the previous technology where the cover was installed by clips or screws, no additional tools are needed, and the screw tightening step is omitted, which greatly simplifies the assembly process and improves the ease of assembly and disassembly. The horizontal sliding installation method has precise positioning, which can quickly achieve the initial assembly of the shell 1 and the decorative cover 2, and the structure is simple. The side plate 6 is designed with a support member 9 at the bottom. The side plate 6 and the support member 9 can be made of different materials, such as glass or wood for the side plate 6 and metal for the support member 9.

[0025] The sliding connection guide part 3 includes a first bottom edge 103 and a second bottom edge 104 disposed on the bottom of the housing 1, and a positioning block 203 disposed on the bottom of the decorative cover 2. The first bottom edge 103 and the second bottom edge 104 respectively form sliding grooves (first clearance groove 7 and second clearance groove 8) of different heights with the support member 9. When the decorative cover 2 is stuck on the side plate 6 and the decorative cover 2 slides laterally along the housing 1, the positioning block 203 is inserted into the first clearance groove 7 to form a guide sliding structure for the decorative cover 2.

[0026] The housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 are provided with upper and lower locking parts 4; the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 are locked together in the upper and lower direction by the upper and lower locking parts 4. This restrains the relative displacement of the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 in the upper and lower direction, preventing the decorative cover 2 from loosening or falling off relative to the housing 1, and significantly improving the connection stability between the two; the locking structure does not require additional fastening components, which fits the quick-installation design concept, strengthens the fixing effect without increasing the assembly steps, and ensures that the decorative cover 2 can maintain a reliable connection with the housing 1 during long-term use, while not affecting the overall assembly efficiency. The upper and lower locking positioning part 4 includes a groove 105 provided on the side of the second bottom edge 104 of the housing 1, and a protrusion 204 provided on the bottom of the decorative cover 2. The protrusion 204 protrudes from the upper part of the positioning block 203. After the decorative cover 2 and the housing 1 are installed in place, the protrusion 204 is inserted into the groove 105. There is a slope between the protrusion 204 and the groove 105. The protrusion 204 is introduced or pushed out through the slope. The protrusion 204 is a deformable buckle.

[0027] The housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 are provided with a front and rear locking part 5, and the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 are locked in the front and rear direction through the front and rear locking part 5.

[0028] The front and rear locking positioning part 5 includes a fastening groove 106 provided on the side of the housing 1 and a bending buckle 205 provided on the inner side of the decorative cover 2. The bending buckle 205 can be bent and deformed. The front and rear locking positioning part 5 is provided between the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2, and the front and rear locking positioning part 5 forms a front-to-back locking position. It supplements the front-to-back direction limiting fixation and forms a front-to-back and up-to-down direction constraint with the upper and lower locking positioning part 4, preventing the decorative cover 2 from moving back and forth relative to the housing 1, and further improving the stability and integrity of the connection. This structure also adopts a locking design, without adding extra assembly difficulty. It achieves multi-directional positioning on the basis of quick installation, so that the decorative cover 2 and the housing 1 fit more tightly after assembly, reducing shaking or displacement during use and ensuring the user experience. The housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 are provided with a locking part that can be elastically deformed, so that the decorative cover 2 can be detached from the housing 1 after installation.

[0029] A locking mechanism that can elastically deform is provided between the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2, allowing the decorative cover 2 to be detached from the housing 1 after installation. This maintains the stability of the locking mechanism while enabling convenient disassembly through elastic deformation. Disassembly does not require tools; the elastic locking mechanism can be deformed by applying appropriate external force, thus separating the decorative cover 2 from the housing 1. The housing 1 is provided with a limiting part 101. After the decorative cover 2 moves laterally relative to the housing 1 to the end installation position, it is limited on the limiting part 101.

[0030] The housing 1 is provided with a limiting part 101. After the decorative cover 2 moves laterally relative to the housing 1 to the end installation position, it is limited on the limiting part 101. The limiting part 101 can accurately define the installation end point of the decorative cover 2, avoiding damage to the parts due to excessive movement during assembly, or incomplete assembly due to insufficient movement. No additional alignment or calibration is required during assembly. Simply push the decorative cover 2 laterally along the sliding connection guide 3 until it touches the limiting part 101 to confirm that it is installed in place, reducing the difficulty of assembly operation. The housing 1 is provided with an elastic deformation part 102; after the decorative cover 2 is installed with the housing 1, the elastic deformation part 102 acts on the inner side of the decorative cover 2 to reduce the assembly error between the decorative cover 2 and the housing 1.

[0031] The housing 1 is provided with an elastic deformation part 102. After the decorative cover 2 is installed with the housing 1, the elastic deformation part 102 acts on the inner side of the decorative cover 2. The elastic deformation part 102 can compensate for the assembly error between the decorative cover 2 and the housing 1 through its own elasticity, avoiding gaps, looseness or shaking between the two due to processing or assembly deviations; at the same time, the elastic force can keep the decorative cover 2 and the housing 1 in close contact, improving the overall structure and stability. The elastic deformation part 102 arches upward toward the outside of the housing 1, and the inner side of the housing 1 is provided with a gap corresponding to the position of the elastic deformation part 102 to allow it to elastically deform.

[0032] The elastic deformation portion 102 arches upward toward the outside of the housing 1, and the inner side of the housing 1 is provided with a gap corresponding to the position of the elastic deformation portion 102 to allow it to elastically deform. This structural design provides sufficient deformation space for the elastic deformation portion 102, ensuring that it can flexibly undergo elastic deformation and effectively play a role in error compensation; the upward arching shape makes the contact between the elastic deformation portion 102 and the inner side of the decorative cover 2 more effective, and can more accurately compensate for assembly errors.

[0033] The housing 1 is installed on the side panel 6 of the drawer. There are two clearance grooves 7 and 8 of different heights between the housing 1 and the side panel 6. When the decorative cover 2 is assembled with the housing 1 located on the side panel 6, the first clearance groove 7 is used to avoid the sliding connection guide part 3 of the decorative cover 2, and the second clearance groove 8 is used to avoid the upper and lower locking parts 4 of the decorative cover 2.

[0034] The housing 1 is mounted on the side panel 6 of the drawer. Two clearance grooves, a first clearance groove 7 and a second clearance groove 8, of different heights are provided between the housing 1 and the side panel 6. When the decorative cover 2 is assembled with the housing 1 on the side panel 6, the first clearance groove 7 avoids the sliding connection guide 3, and the second clearance groove 8 avoids the upper and lower locking parts 4. This ensures that the decorative cover 2 can move smoothly laterally along the sliding connection guide 3 and complete the assembly. The two clearance grooves of different heights correspond to different components, ensuring precise positioning and not affecting the connection stability between the housing 1 and the side panel 6. The decorative cover 2 includes a cover plate 202 for covering the housing 1, and a sliding connection guide 3 is disposed on the end of the cover plate 202 and extends laterally toward the inside of the decorative cover 2 so as to be covered by the decorative cover 2.

[0035] The cover plate 202 can effectively cover the housing 1, improve the appearance and cleanliness, and protect the internal structure of the housing 1. The sliding connection guide 3 is provided at the end of the cover plate 202 and extends laterally inward, so that it is covered by the decorative cover 2, so as to prevent the sliding connection guide 3 from being exposed to the outside and being damaged or affecting the appearance.

[0036] The inner side of the cover plate 202 is provided with a front and rear locking part 5 between it and the housing 1, so that the decorative cover 2 is locked in place on the housing 1. After the housing 1 and the decorative cover 2 are assembled, the front and rear locking part 5 and the sliding connection guide part 3 are covered by the decorative cover 2. The covering design makes the overall appearance simpler and more beautiful, and improves the product quality.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
