Magnetic dish rack

Abstract

This invention discloses a magnetic dish rack, comprising a frame and a drip tray. The frame is equipped with a first magnetic component, and the drip tray has a second magnetic component corresponding to the first magnetic component. The first and second magnetic components are magnetically connected. The first magnetic component includes a pressing member movable up and down on the frame and a first magnetic block on the pressing member. The second magnetic component is located below the first magnetic block. Movement of the pressing member causes the first magnetic block and the second magnetic component to move away from each other, thereby detaching the drip tray from the frame. Compared with existing technologies, this invention uses magnetic force to quickly attract and fix the drip tray to the frame. Applying external force to increase the distance between the two magnetic components allows for rapid separation, making assembly and disassembly convenient, the structure simple, and the connection stable.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of kitchenware, and more particularly to magnetic dish racks. Background Technology

[0002] In existing dish racks, the connection between the drip tray and the rack body is mostly achieved through mechanical fastening methods such as clips, screws, or slots. While this structure can achieve basic positioning, the disassembly and assembly process is relatively cumbersome, usually requiring tools or multiple steps, resulting in low efficiency when maintaining, cleaning, or replacing the drip tray. Furthermore, repeated disassembly and assembly can easily cause wear on the clips, stripping of threads, or loosening of the connection, affecting long-term reliability. To overcome these problems, some solutions attempt to simplify the connection structure, but still fail to balance ease of operation with stable fixation.

[0003] Based on the above, the existing dish rack needs further improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a magnetic dish rack. Magnetic components are respectively set on the rack body and the drip tray, so that the two can be quickly connected by magnetic attraction, or the two can be quickly separated by increasing the distance between the two magnetic components. It is easy to assemble and disassemble, has a simple structure, and the connection is stable and not easily worn.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a magnetic dish rack, comprising a frame and a drip tray, wherein a first magnetic component is provided on the frame, and a second magnetic component is provided on the drip tray corresponding to the first magnetic component, and the first magnetic component and the second magnetic component are magnetically connected; the first magnetic component includes a pressing member that can move up and down on the frame and a first magnetic block provided on the pressing member, and the second magnetic component is located below the first magnetic block; the movement of the pressing member causes the first magnetic block and the second magnetic component to move away from each other, thereby causing the drip tray to detach from the frame.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, the present invention is equipped with magnetic components on the frame and the water tray respectively. Through the magnetic attraction between the two, the water tray and the frame can be quickly attracted and fixed without the need for tools or multiple steps. When disassembly is required, only external force needs to be applied to increase the distance between the two magnetic components, so that the two can be quickly separated. This effectively avoids the wear and loosening problems caused by repeated disassembly and assembly of buckles or screws in the prior art. It has the characteristics of convenient disassembly and assembly, simple structure, stable connection and not easy wear.

[0007] Preferably, the first magnetic suction assembly further includes an elastic element sleeved on the pressing member, the first magnetic block is located on the lower side of the elastic element and has a through hole thereon, the frame is provided with a limiting plate located between the elastic element and the first magnetic block, the pressing member passes through the limiting plate to the through hole and can be moved up and down relative to the first magnetic block; when a downward pressure is applied to the pressing member, the pressing member moves downward and protrudes more and more from the through hole, the distance between the first magnetic block and the second magnetic suction assembly increases, so that the magnetic attraction between the two gradually decreases to 0, realizing the separation of the water receiving tray from the frame and realizing quick disassembly.

[0008] Preferably, the pressing component includes a push rod and a button disposed on the upper side of the push rod and protruding from the outer periphery of the push rod. The push rod passes through a limiting plate and a through hole in sequence. One end of the elastic element abuts against the button, and the other end abuts against the limiting plate. The elastic element is used for button reset. When the button is pressed, the upper end of the elastic element is pressed down with the button, while its other end abuts against the fixed limiting plate, and the elastic element is compressed and stores energy. When the pressing force is removed, the elastic element resets and drives the button to reset.

[0009] Preferably, handles are provided on both sides of the frame, the first magnetic suction component and the limiting plate are provided on the handles, the button has a limiting boss protruding outwards, and the handle has an active hole adapted to the button and the limiting boss; when the button is pressed, it can move downwards through the active hole, thereby compensating for the button's range of motion, allowing the handle to be made thinner and the overall design to be lighter.

[0010] Preferably, handles are provided on both sides of the frame. The pressing component includes a connecting arm, a button extending downward from the upper part of the connecting arm, a mounting block on the lower side of the connecting arm, and a push rod on the upper side of the mounting block. The elastic element is sleeved on the push rod, with one end abutting against the handle and the other end abutting against the mounting block. The first magnetic block is installed inside the mounting block. The button can be pressed upward, causing the first magnetic block to move upward. When the button is pressed upward, the mounting block connected to it moves upward synchronously, gradually moving away from the second magnetic attraction component. The first magnetic block separates from the second magnetic attraction component. During this process, the elastic element is compressed. After the pressing force is removed, the mounting block resets and moves downward under the elastic force of the elastic element.

[0011] Preferably, the handle extends downward to form a positioning boss corresponding to the push rod, and the upper end of the elastic element abuts against the positioning boss; the positioning boss provides positioning and installation for the upper end of the elastic element, thereby limiting the upward movement direction of the pressing element through the elastic element to avoid deviation, and also limits the upward movement distance of the push rod.

[0012] Preferably, the handle includes a connecting part and a gripping part disposed on the upper side of the connecting part. Both the connecting part and the gripping part are hollow structures and are interconnected to form an inner cavity. The gripping part is provided with a mounting hole. The first magnetic suction component is disposed in the inner cavity, and at least a portion of the button protrudes from the gripping part through the mounting hole.

[0013] Preferably, the handle is provided with a first support member and a stop bar, the first support member, the stop bar and the handle sidewall together form a first mounting position, and the first magnet is placed in the first mounting position.

[0014] Preferably, the second magnetic suction assembly includes a frame and a second magnetic block. The water receiving tray includes a support portion extending outward from all sides. The frame is symmetrically inserted into the support portion and has a slot thereon. The second magnetic block is inserted into the slot.

[0015] Preferably, a first support member is disposed opposite to the mounting block, and the first support member, the upper wall and the side wall of the mounting block enclose a second mounting position, and the first magnetic block is placed in the second mounting position.

Detailed Implementation

[0030] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "horizontal", "inner", and "outer" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and is only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this invention.

[0031] Example 1 See Figures 1 to 8 This embodiment discloses a magnetic dish rack 1, including a frame 2 and a drip tray 3. The frame 2 is provided with a first magnetic component 4, and the drip tray 3 is provided with a second magnetic component 5 corresponding to the first magnetic component 4. The first magnetic component 4 and the second magnetic component 5 are magnetically connected. The first magnetic suction component 4 includes a pressing member 41 that can move up and down on the frame 2 and a first magnetic block 43 that is disposed on the pressing member. The second magnetic suction component 5 is disposed below the first magnetic block 43. The pressing member 41 moves to make the first magnetic block 43 and the second magnetic suction component 5 move away from each other, thereby causing the water receiving tray 3 to detach from the frame 2.

[0032] The first magnetic suction assembly 4 also includes an elastic member 42 sleeved on the pressing member 41, the first magnetic block 43 is disposed on the lower side of the elastic member 42 and has a through hole 431 thereon, the frame 2 is provided with a limiting plate 61 located between the elastic member and the first magnetic block, the pressing member 41 passes through the limiting plate 61 to the through hole 431 and can be moved up and down relative to the first magnetic block 43.

[0033] The pressing component 41 includes a push rod 411 and a button 412 disposed on the upper side of the push rod 411 and protruding from the outer periphery of the push rod 411. The push rod 411 passes through the limiting plate 61 and the through hole 431 in sequence. One end of the elastic member 42 abuts against the button 412, and the other end abuts against the limiting plate 61. Specifically, the push rod 411 and the button 412 are integrally formed or fixedly connected. When a downward force is applied to the pressing component 41, the push rod 411 moves downward and extends outward through the through hole 431, causing the distance between the first magnetic block 43 and the second magnetic attraction component 5 to continuously increase. The magnetic attraction between the two gradually weakens until it disappears, thereby releasing the water receiving tray 3 from the frame 2 and achieving rapid separation.

[0034] The frame 2 is provided with handles 6 on both sides. The first magnetic suction component 4 and the limiting plate 61 are provided on the handles 6. The button 412 has a limiting boss 4121 protruding outward. The handle 6 is provided with a movable hole 632 that is adapted to the button 412 and the limiting boss 4121. Under normal conditions, the limiting boss 4121 abuts against the inner wall of the upper end of the handle 6. When the button 412 is pressed, the limiting boss 4121 can move downwards to pass through the movable hole 632. The downward stroke is determined by the height of the button 412 protruding from the handle 6. When the external force is removed, the limiting boss 4121 moves upwards under the action of the elastic element 42. Due to the original properties of the elastic element 42, it will first extend beyond its original length, then contract to slightly less than its original length, and repeat this several times before fully returning to its original state. During this process, if there is no limitation from the limiting boss 4121, the button 412 will swing up and down, and the reset will be unstable. Therefore, the limiting boss 4121 is set to limit the extension of the elastic element 42 when it first extends to its original length, so as to avoid the button 412 from shaking and swaying, and the reset is more stable.

[0035] The connecting part 62 further includes a baffle 621, which is used to cover the connecting part 62 and is provided with a first hook 6211. The limiting plate 61 is provided with a first locking hole 611, and the baffle 621 is locked onto the first locking hole 611 by the first hook 6211.

[0036] The handle 6 includes a connecting portion 62 and a grip portion 63 located on the upper side of the connecting portion 62. Both the connecting portion 62 and the grip portion 63 are hollow structures and interconnected to form an inner cavity 64. The grip portion 63 has a mounting hole 631. The first magnetic suction component 4 is disposed in the inner cavity 64, and at least a portion of the button 412 protrudes from the grip portion 63 through the mounting hole 631. The button 412 can move up and down relative to the mounting hole 631. The grip portion 63 and the connecting portion 62 form a "T" shape. The movable hole 632 can compensate for the downward pressure range of the button 412 without making the grip portion 63 thicker or the connecting portion 62 wider, resulting in a lighter overall design.

[0037] The handle 6 is provided with a first support member 21 and a stop bar 22, which are arranged opposite to each other. The first support member 21, the stop bar 22 and the side wall of the handle 6 form a first installation position 23, and the first magnetic block 43 is placed on the first installation position 23.

[0038] The first support member 21 is designed in a "J" shape, providing support on both sides of the first magnetic block 43, so that the first magnetic block 43 can be mounted on the first mounting position 23. The lower end face of the first magnetic block 43 is exposed, resulting in stronger magnetic attraction.

[0039] The second magnetic component 5 includes a frame 51 and a second magnetic block 52. The water receiving tray 3 includes a support portion 31 extending outwards from all sides. The frame 51 is symmetrically inserted into the support portion 31 and has a slot 511. The second magnetic block 52 is inserted into the slot 511. The slot 511 is a side-opening slot, and the second magnetic block 52 is inserted flat to maximize its magnetic attraction area with the first magnetic block 43, resulting in better magnetic attraction.

[0040] The gripping part 63 includes an upper cover 633 and a lower cover 634. The lower cover 634 is connected to the connecting part 62 and has a second locking hole 6341 thereon. The upper cover 633 has a second hook 6331 corresponding to the second locking hole 6341. The upper cover 633 is engaged with the second locking hole 6341 by the second hook 6331. Specifically, there are a plurality of second locking holes 6341 and second hooks 6331. The second locking holes 6341 are spaced apart along the length direction of the lower cover 634, and the second hooks 6331 are spaced apart along the length direction of the upper cover 633.

[0041] The lower cover 634 has a positioning protrusion 6342 protruding around its upper edge, and the upper cover 633 has a corresponding positioning groove 6332. The positioning protrusion 6342 is disposed on the positioning groove 6332. The positioning protrusion 6342 and the positioning groove 6332 are used for quick alignment of the upper cover 633 and the lower cover 634.

[0042] The insert frame 51 has a raised abutment 512, and the slot 511 is located on the abutment 512. When the first magnetic component 4 and the second magnetic component 5 are magnetically connected, the first magnetic block 43 abuts against the abutment 512.

[0043] The frame 2 includes a support base 24 and side plates 25. The support base 24 is provided with reinforcing ribs 241, which, together with the inner wall of the support base 24, form an assembly groove 242. Both ends of the side plates 25 are inserted into the assembly groove 242. The detachable connection between the support base 24 and the side plates 25 results in higher logistics transportation efficiency and lower costs.

[0044] Compared with the prior art, the present invention sets magnetic components on the frame 2 and the water tray 3 respectively. Through the magnetic attraction between the two, the water tray 3 and the frame 2 can be quickly attracted and fixed without the need for tools or multiple steps. When disassembly is required, only external force needs to be applied to increase the distance between the two magnetic components, so that the two can be quickly separated. This effectively avoids the wear and loosening problems caused by repeated disassembly and assembly of buckles or screws in the prior art. It has the characteristics of convenient disassembly and assembly, simple structure, stable connection and not easy wear.

[0045] Example 2 See Figures 9 to 13 This embodiment is an improvement on the first embodiment. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment lies in the structure of the first magnetic suction component 4 and the handle 6.

[0046] Handles 6 are provided on both sides of the frame 2. The pressing component 41 includes a connecting arm 413, a button 412 extending downward from the upper part of the connecting arm 413, a mounting block 414 located on the lower side of the connecting arm 413, and a push rod 411 located on the upper side of the mounting block 414. The elastic element 42 is sleeved on the push rod 411, with one end abutting against the handle 6 and the other end abutting against the mounting block 414. The first magnetic block 43 is installed inside the mounting block 414. The button 412 can be pressed upwards, causing the first magnetic block 43 to move upwards. Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment uses an upward pressing method for the button 412, which is more in line with the user's action of directly lifting the frame 2 after disassembling the water tray 3.

[0047] Pressing button 412 upwards causes the mounting block 414 connected to button 412 to move upwards synchronously, causing the first magnetic block 43 inside the mounting block 414 to gradually move away from the second magnetic attraction component 5, thereby separating the first magnetic block 43 from the second magnetic attraction component 5. During this process, the elastic element 42 is compressed. After the pressing force is removed, the mounting block 414 resets and moves downwards under the elastic force of the elastic element 42.

[0048] The handle 6 is shaped like a "┌", and the mounting hole 631 is located at the lower part of the grip 63.

[0049] The handle 6 includes a first cover 65 and a second cover 66, which together form the inner cavity 64. The second cover 66 is provided with a third locking hole 661, and the first cover 65 is provided with a third hook 651 corresponding to the third locking hole 661. The first cover 65 is locked onto the third locking hole 661 by the third hook 651.

[0050] The connecting arm 413 has symmetrically extending positioning plates 4131, and the second cover 66 has protrusions 662 located in the gap between the positioning plates 4131, which are used to restrict the movement direction of the pressing member 41.

[0051] The first cover 65 has an insertion hole 652, and the two ends of the side plate 25 are inserted into the insertion hole 652.

[0052] The handle 6 extends downward to form a positioning boss 67 corresponding to the push rod 411, and the upper end of the elastic member 42 abuts against the positioning boss 67. The positioning boss 67 has two functions: firstly, it provides positioning for the upper end of the elastic member 42, and restricts the upward movement direction of the pressing member 41 by the elastic member 42 to prevent deviation; secondly, it limits the upward movement distance of the push rod 411.

[0053] The mounting block 414 is provided with a second support member 4141, and the second support member 4141, the upper wall and the side wall of the mounting block 414 form a second mounting position 44, and the first magnetic block 43 is placed on the second mounting position 44.

[0054] The frame 2 also includes a partition frame 26, which is provided in several parts and is evenly distributed along the length of the frame 2.

[0055] Based on the disclosure and teachings of the foregoing specification, those skilled in the art can make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention. Furthermore, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for convenience of explanation and do not constitute any limitation on the present invention.
