Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of furniture handles, in particular to a foldable barrier-free cabinet door handle. Background Art

[0002] At present, barrier-free facilities suitable for the elderly are increasingly used in daily life, but they are mainly installed on wall handrails. Wardrobes and lockers in residential buildings are important storage facilities in home life. If they are not planned in advance, they can easily become safety blind spots in the elderly's daily life. Installing foldable handles can facilitate the transfer and holding of various items in the elderly's daily life, but the current foldable handles have the following problems:

[0003] 1. Difficult to assemble: Hexagonal nuts are often used. Hexagonal nuts are locked to the panel using corresponding hexagonal sleeves. Since hexagonal sleeves are not commonly used tools on general production lines, they need to be locked manually, which is not only labor-intensive but also costly.

[0004] 2. Occupied space: Since the nut itself occupies a large volume, the space occupied by the nut is not conducive to product miniaturization.

[0005] 4. Insufficient strength: A spring and a ball are placed in the receiving groove of the male stud of the handle. Since the receiving groove is drilled at the base of the male stud, this design has been found in practice to significantly reduce the strength of the base of the male stud, and the handle is very likely to break at this point when in use.

[0006] In response to the above problems, this application aims to use this new type of barrier-free handrail to make the cabinet area more suitable for the elderly, hoping to overcome the existing technical problems, further meet the home-based elderly care needs of people entering old age, and ensure the safety of the elderly.
