Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of dishwashers, and particularly relates to a structure of a knife and fork basket. Background Art
[0002] The knife and fork basket is an important component of a dishwasher and is used for loading spoons, knives, and forks. The common knife and fork baskets on the market are assembled from multiple parts. As Figure 5 shown, the knife and fork basket is composed of 4 parts, namely a left knife and fork basket cover 31, a handle 32, a right knife and fork basket cover 33, and a knife and fork basket base 34. The number of parts is relatively large, and the multiple parts are connected by buckles, resulting in poor connection strength and easy disassembling. In addition, the combination and assembly of multiple parts involve many processing and assembly procedures, making the cost of the knife and fork basket relatively high.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements. Summary of the Utility Model
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a knife and fork basket structure with simple structure, high connection strength, convenient processing, low cost, and strong practicability, so as to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art.
[0005] A knife and fork basket structure designed according to this purpose includes a basket base and a cover body covering the basket base. It is characterized in that: a positioning part and a detachable connection part are provided between the basket base and the cover body. The cover body is installed on the basket base through the detachable connection part, and the cover body is positioned up and down, left and right, front and back on the basket base through the positioning part.
[0006] The cover body includes a left cover body, a handle, and a right cover body which are integrally arranged. The left cover body and the right cover body are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the handle, and an opening is formed between the left cover body and the right cover body.
[0007] A plurality of first support beams are longitudinally arranged on the basket base, and a second support beam is transversely arranged. The plurality of first support beams are connected by the second support beam.
[0008] A plurality of accommodation cavities for loading tableware are formed between the first support beam, the second support beam, and the side wall of the basket base.
[0009] The detachable connection part includes a first buckle arranged in the middle of the cover body and a first clamping position arranged in the middle of the basket base, and the first buckle and the first clamping position are buckled with each other.
[0010] The detachable connection part further includes a plurality of second buckles arranged on the periphery of the cover body and a plurality of second clamping positions arranged on the periphery of the basket base, and the second buckles and the second clamping positions are buckled with each other.
[0011] The positioning part includes a positioning post arranged in the middle of the cover body and a positioning hole arranged in the middle of the basket base, and the positioning post is inserted into the positioning hole for positioning.
[0012] The first buckle extends and is arranged below the positioning post, the first clamping position is arranged below the positioning hole, and after the first buckle passes through the positioning hole, it is buckled with the first clamping position.
[0013] The handle is in an inverted U shape, and there are grooves on the handle. The grooves include a horizontal section and vertical sections arranged on both sides of the horizontal section. The two sides of the horizontal section are inclined downward and are respectively connected to the corresponding vertical sections.
[0014] There are multiple rows of first through holes communicating with the accommodating cavity on the side wall of the basket seat, and multiple second through holes communicating with the accommodating cavity are respectively arranged on the left cover body and the right cover body.
[0015] In the present utility model, the left cover body, the handle and the right cover body are designed as an integrated cover body. The cover body is installed on the basket seat through the detachable connection part, and the cover body is positioned up, down, left, right, front and back on the basket seat through the positioning part. The positioning part can prevent the first buckle from loosening. The above structure can greatly improve the connection strength between the cover body and the basket seat, making the cutlery basket not easy to fall apart; in addition, the cutlery basket only has two parts, namely the basket seat and the cover body, which not only reduces the initial mold investment cost, but also reduces the production and assembly processes, saving the production cost.

The cover body 2 is installed on the basket seat 1 through the detachable connection part, and the cover body 2 is positioned up, down, left, right, front and back on the basket seat 1 through the positioning part.
[0023] The cover body 2 includes a left cover body 3, a handle 4, and a right cover body 5 which are integrally provided. The left cover body 3 and the right cover body 5 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the handle 4, and an opening 6 is formed between the left cover body 3 and the right cover body 5.
[0024] A plurality of first support beams 7 are longitudinally arranged on the basket base 1, and a second support beam 8 is transversely arranged. The plurality of first support beams 7 are connected by the second support beam 8, and the first support beam 7 and the second support beam 8 can provide sufficient support strength for the basket base 1.
[0025] A plurality of accommodating cavities 9 for loading tableware (such as spoons, knives, forks, etc.) are formed between the first support beam 7, the second support beam 8 and the side wall of the basket base 1.
[0026] The detachable connection part includes a first buckle 10 arranged in the middle of the cover body 2 and a first clamping position 11 arranged in the middle of the basket base 1. The first buckle 10 and the first clamping position 11 are buckled with each other to fix the cover body 2 on the basket base 1.
[0027] The detachable connection part further includes a plurality of second buckles 12 arranged on the periphery of the cover body 2 and a plurality of second clamping positions 13 arranged on the periphery of the basket base 1. The second buckles 12 and the second clamping positions 13 are buckled with each other to fix the cover body 2 on the basket base 1.
[0028] The positioning part includes a positioning post 14 arranged in the middle of the cover body 2 and a positioning hole 15 arranged in the middle of the basket base 1. The positioning post 14 is inserted into the positioning hole 15 for positioning; the positioning post 14 is an anti-loosening post and can be closely matched with the positioning hole 15 to prevent the first buckle 10 from loosening.
