Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cabinets, and particularly relates to a conductive structure and a cabinet. Background Art

[0002] Drawers are common components of storage furniture. Furniture such as desks, writing desks, storage cabinets, and bedside cabinets generally have drawers. The common way to use a drawer is to pull out or push in the drawer compartment from the furniture main body through a handle. In order to enable the cabinet to have a lighting function, a light strip is usually arranged at the handle position of the drawer. Through the illumination of the light strip, the user can quickly find the position of the handle in a dark scene.

[0003] For common drawers, in order to supply power to the light strip, a battery box is usually arranged inside the drawer, and the drawer is directly powered by the battery box. Such structures can be referred to existing technologies such as a light-emitting drawer side plate disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN114601280A and a drawer with a light disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN202874506U. The structure using batteries requires frequent battery replacement, and the setting of the battery box occupies a large space.

[0004] For some drawer structures, a wire is directly connected to the light strip on the drawer, and an external power supply is connected through the wire. However, since the drawer needs to be frequently pulled out, the wire needs to be set relatively long, which is prone to wire entanglement. Some cabinets on the market use a spring wire to supply power to the light strip of the drawer. During the use of such products, the spring wire is prone to knotting during the pulling and pushing of the drawer, resulting in the drawer being unable to be pulled out.

[0005] Therefore, the existing technology still needs to be improved and developed. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the above-mentioned existing technology, the purpose of the present utility model is to provide a conductive structure and a cabinet to solve the problem of spring wire knotting that occurs when the spring wire is used to supply power to the light strip of the drawer in the existing technology cabinet.

[0007] A conductive structure, comprising:

[0008] A fixed carrier, the fixed carrier is provided with a sliding hole extending in the front-rear direction and having an open front end;

[0009] A movable carrier, arranged above the fixed carrier and slidable relative to the fixed carrier in the front-rear direction;

[0010] A first conductive module, comprising a spring fixed inside the sliding hole, and a metal guide rail connected to one end of the spring. The metal guide rail is provided with a first convex platform and a second convex platform that arch upward;

[0011] A baffle, fixed to the front end of the movable carrier, can move along the rear side to the open end of the sliding hole to compress the spring; the baffle can also move along the front side away from the open end of the sliding hole to extend the spring;

[0012] A second conductive module, fixed to the bottom of the movable carrier;

[0013] The connection module includes a first movable pin and a second movable pin. When the spring is compressed, the first boss is located below the first movable pin, pushing the first movable pin up until its upper end face abuts against the second conductive module; when the spring extends, the second boss moves below the second movable pin, pushing the second movable pin up until its upper end face abuts against the second conductive module.

[0014] Specifically, the longitudinal cross-sections of the first movable pin and the second movable pin are T-shaped structures.

[0015] Specifically, the upper end of the fixed carrier is provided with limiting holes for the first movable pin and the second movable pin to move longitudinally.

[0016] A cabinet, including the conductive structure, further includes a cabinet body and a drawer. The fixed carrier is installed at the bottom of the cabinet body, the movable carrier is installed at the bottom of the drawer, and the baffle is installed at the front end of the drawer.

[0017] Specifically, the first conductive module is connected with a first wire, and the bottom of the fixed carrier is provided with a first wire groove and a first wire groove cover for accommodating the first wire.

[0018] Specifically, a handle is provided at the upper end of the baffle, and a light strip is provided on the handle. The second conductive module is connected with the light strip through a second wire.

[0019] Specifically, the bottom of the movable carrier is provided with a second wire groove and a second wire groove cover for accommodating the second wire; the back of the baffle is provided with a third wire groove and a third wire groove cover for accommodating the second wire.

[0020] Specifically, slide rails in the front-back direction are provided on both the left and right sides of the drawer.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present utility model:

[0022] For the conductive structure and cabinet of the present utility model, when the drawer is pushed into the inner cavity of the cabinet towards the rear side, the baffle moves to the open end of the sliding hole, completely pressing the metal guide rail into the sliding hole. At the same time, the spring is in a compressed state. Driven by the metal guide rail, the first protrusion moves below the first movable pin, pushing the first movable pin up until its upper end surface abuts against the second conductive module, and electrical conduction is achieved among the first protrusion, the first movable pin, and the second conductive module. When the drawer is pulled out from the inner cavity of the cabinet towards the front side, the baffle moves away from the open end of the sliding hole, and the baffle no longer blocks the metal guide rail. Under the thrust of the spring during extension, one end of the metal guide rail passes through the sliding hole towards the front side. Driven by the metal guide rail, the second protrusion moves below the second movable pin, pushing the second movable pin up until its upper end surface abuts against the second conductive module, and electrical conduction is achieved among the second protrusion, the second movable pin, and the second conductive module. The structure is ingenious, eliminating the need for spring wires and avoiding the problem of the drawer being unable to be pulled. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] As Figures 1 to 9 , this embodiment discloses a cabinet, including a conductive structure, a cabinet body 10 and a drawer 20; wherein, the conductive structure includes:

[0036] A fixed carrier 11, installed at the bottom of the cabinet body 10, and the fixed carrier 11 is provided with a sliding hole 111 that extends in the front-back direction and has an open front end;

[0037] A movable carrier 21, installed at the bottom of the drawer 20, located above the fixed carrier 11 and slidable relative to the fixed carrier 11 in the front-back direction;

[0038] A first conductive module 30, including a spring 31 fixed inside the sliding hole 111 and a metal guide rail 32 connected to one end of the spring 31. The metal guide rail 32 is provided with an upwardly arched first boss 321 and a second boss 322;

[0039] A baffle 22, fixed to the front end of the movable carrier 21. The baffle 22 can move backward to the open end of the sliding hole 111 to compress the spring 31; the baffle 22 can also move forward away from the open end of the sliding hole 111 to extend the spring 31;

[0040] A second conductive module 40, fixed to the bottom of the movable carrier 21;

[0041] The connection module includes a first movable pin 51 and a second movable pin 52. When the spring 31 is compressed, the first protrusion 321 is located below the first movable pin 51, pushing the first movable pin 51 upward until its upper end surface abuts against the second conductive module 40. When the spring 31 extends, the second protrusion 322 moves below the second movable pin 52, pushing the second movable pin 52 upward until its upper end surface abuts against the second conductive module 40.

[0042] In the cabinet of this embodiment, when the drawer 20 is pushed into the inner cavity of the cabinet body 10 towards the rear side, the baffle 22 moves to the open end of the sliding hole 111, completely pressing the metal guide rail 32 into the sliding hole 111. At the same time, the spring 31 is in a compressed state. Driven by the metal guide rail 32, the first protrusion 321 moves below the first movable pin 51, pushing the first movable pin 51 upward until its upper end surface abuts against the second conductive module 40, and electrical conduction is achieved among the first protrusion 321, the first movable pin 51, and the second conductive module 40. When the drawer 20 is pulled out from the inner cavity of the cabinet body 10 towards the front side, the baffle 22 moves away from the open end of the sliding hole 111, and the baffle 22 no longer blocks the metal guide rail 32. Under the thrust of the spring 31 when it extends, one end of the metal guide rail 32 passes through the sliding hole 111 towards the front side. Driven by the metal guide rail 32, the second protrusion 322 moves below the second movable pin 52, pushing the second movable pin 52 upward until its upper end surface abuts against the second conductive module 40, and electrical conduction is achieved among the second protrusion 322, the second movable pin 52, and the second conductive module 40. The structure is ingenious, without the use of spring wires, avoiding the problem that the drawer 20 cannot be pulled.

[0043] It should be noted that after the drawer 20 is pushed into the inner cavity of the cabinet body 10, due to the gravity of the drawer 20 and the baffle 22 itself, it is sufficient to keep the spring 31 in a compressed state. Without being pulled by an external force, the baffle 22 can be stable at the open end of the sliding hole 111, completely pressing the metal guide rail 32 into the sliding hole 111.

[0044] As Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown, the longitudinal cross-section of the first movable pin 51 and the second movable pin 52 is a T-shaped structure. The upper end of the fixed carrier 11 is provided with a limiting hole 112 for the first movable pin 51 and the second movable pin 52 to move longitudinally. The longitudinal cross-section of the limiting hole 112 is a T-shaped structure. Both the first movable pin 51 and the second movable pin 52 include a head at the upper end and a rod portion at the lower end. The cross-sectional length of the head is greater than the cross-sectional length of the rod portion. After the first movable pin 51 and the second movable pin 52 are inserted into the limiting hole 112 vertically, it can prevent the first movable pin 51 and the second movable pin 52 from falling downward.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 2, the first conductive module 30 is connected with a first wire. A first wire groove 61 and a first wire groove cover 62 for accommodating the first wire are provided at the bottom of the fixed carrier 11. After the first wire is loaded into the first wire groove 61, it is fixed by the first wire groove cover 62, having a good wire management effect.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a handle 23 is provided at the upper end of the baffle 22, and a light strip is provided on the handle 23. The second conductive module 40 is connected with the light strip through a second wire. Through the illumination of the light strip, the user can quickly find the position of the handle 23 in a dark scene.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 3 , a second wire groove 63 and a second wire groove cover 64 for accommodating the second wire are provided at the bottom of the movable carrier 21; a third wire groove 65 and a third wire groove cover 66 for accommodating the second wire are provided on the back of the baffle 22. After the second wire is loaded into the second wire groove 63 and the third wire groove 65, it is fixed by the second wire groove cover 64 and the third wire groove cover 66, having a good wire management effect.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 4 , slide rails 70 in the front-rear direction are provided on both the left and right sides of the drawer 20, making the pulling of the drawer 20 smoother and reducing noise and wear.

[0049] The above has specifically described the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the present utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can also make various equivalent variations or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present utility model, and these equivalent variations or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
