Detailed implementation manners

[0029] The following further describes the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners:

[0030] Refer to Figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cabinet with the connecting member 10 shown in the preferred embodiment of this embodiment. The cabinet includes a cabinet body 100 and a decorative frame installed on the cabinet body 100. The decorative frame includes a plurality of the connecting members 10 and a plurality of plate members 9. Each of the plate members 9 is sequentially assembled into a rectangular frame through the connecting members 10, and a corresponding connecting member 10 is directly provided between two adjacent plate members 9.

[0031] Exemplarily, the cabinet body 100 is a rectangular frame with a cavity. The cavity is provided with an opening, and the decorative frame is installed along the edge of the opening so that the decorative frame serves as the display surface of the cabinet.

[0032] In an alternative embodiment, the decorative frame includes four plate members 9 and four connecting members 10. The four plate members 9 are sequentially connected end to end through the four connecting members 10. A corresponding connecting member 10 is connected between each pair of adjacent plate members 9. The connecting member 10 is just located at the corner of the rectangular frame, and the four plate members 9 just fit on the four sides of the rectangular frame.

[0033] Refer to Figure 3, the cabinet body 100 includes an upper board assembly, a bottom board assembly, a back board 3, a left board assembly and a right board assembly. The back board 3 is installed at one end of the upper board assembly, the bottom board assembly, the left board assembly and the right board assembly facing away from the decorative frame. The upper board assembly and the bottom board assembly are respectively fixedly or detachably connected to the inner sides of the upper ends and the lower ends of the left board assembly and the right board assembly. The upper surface of the upper board assembly is flush with the upper end surfaces of the left board assembly and the right board assembly, and the lower surface of the lower board assembly is flush with the lower end surfaces of the left board assembly and the right board assembly. The upper board assembly and the lower board assembly are parallel, and the left board assembly and the right board assembly are parallel. Thus, the upper board assembly, the bottom board assembly, the left board assembly and the right board assembly are sequentially connected end to end to form a rectangular frame with a cavity.

[0034] In an alternative embodiment, the upper board assembly includes an outer frame top board 1 and an inner frame top board 2 stacked together, the bottom board assembly includes an outer frame bottom board 6 and an inner frame bottom board 11 stacked together, the left board assembly includes an outer frame left board 5 and an inner frame left board 4, and the right board assembly includes an outer frame right board 7 and an inner frame right board 8.

[0035] It can be understood that any one of the upper board assembly, the bottom board assembly, the left board assembly and the right board assembly can be a single-layer board or include multiple layer boards stacked together. For example, the left board assembly includes only one layer board, and the right board assembly includes two or more layer boards.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 , connection holes are reserved on the end face of the cabinet body 100 connected to the decorative frame. The decorative frame is connected to the cabinet body 100 by connecting components 13 connected to the connection holes, and the connecting components 13 are adapted to the connection holes.

[0037] To ensure that each board member 9 on the decorative frame can be fixedly connected to the cabinet body 100, at least one of the above-mentioned connection holes is dug on each of the four sides of the cabinet body 100, and at least one of the connecting components 13 is connected to each board member 9. That is, at least one connection hole is dug on each of the layer board assembly, the bottom board assembly, the left board assembly and the right board assembly.

[0038] When the upper board assembly, the bottom board assembly, the left board assembly and the right board assembly are multiple layer boards stacked together, the connection holes can be reserved on only one or more of the layer boards. One or more connection holes can be provided on each layer board, and one or more connecting components 13 are also connected to the corresponding board member 9.

[0039] In an alternative embodiment, the connecting component 13 is a two-end screw. One end of the two-end screw is driven into the connection hole, and the other end is driven into the decorative frame.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 AndFigure 5 The decorative frame plate 9 is provided with a groove 12 at one end facing the cabinet body 100. The width of the opening of the groove 12 is smaller than the width of the inner cavity of the groove 12. The groove 12 extends along the axial direction of the plate 9, and both ends of the axial direction of the groove 12 are open. One end of the two-head screw can extend into the inner cavity of the groove 12 from the opening at one axial end of the groove 12. When one end of the two-head screw extends into the inner cavity of the groove 12, it can move along the axial direction of the groove 12, and the opening can prevent the two-head screw from being pulled out along the radial direction of the groove 12, thereby ensuring that the two-head screw can be moved to any position, and the two-head screw can only be removed in the specific direction of the axial direction of the groove 12, thereby preventing the two-head screw from falling off the groove 12 at will. The two-head screw can be moved to any position, which can ensure that the two-head screw can be aligned with the corresponding connection hole on the cabinet body 100.

[0041] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The connector 10 includes a connector body 101, and the connector body 101 includes two ends 102 facing different directions. The outer edge contour of the connector 10 is an arc, for example, the arc of the outer edge contour is a chamfered arc. The end face of the end 102 facing away from the connector body 101 is a plane, that is, its surface is flat. The axes of the two ends 102 intersect and form an angle θ, and the angle θ can be adjusted as needed, for example, the angle θ is set to 90°, that is, θ=90°. When the angle θ is 90°, two adjacent plates 9 can be connected and assembled to have an angle of 90°, so that the four plates 9 are connected in sequence to form a rectangle.

[0042] It should be noted that when the decorative frame needs to be spliced ​​into a polygon with a larger number of sides, it can be achieved by simply setting a different angle θ. For example, when splicing into a regular hexagon, the angle θ can be set to 120° (the inner angle of a regular hexagon is 120°), and six connectors 10 and six panels 9 can be spliced ​​into a regular hexagon. The same is true for other polygons, so it is not repeated.

[0043] The end 102 is also fixedly connected with a snap column 103 and at least one positioning member, the snap column 103 and the positioning member are protrudingly arranged on the surface of the end 102, the snap column 103 and the positioning member are arranged at intervals, the plate 9 is provided with a snap groove adapted to the snap column 103, the plate 9 is provided with a tube hole 14 adapted to the positioning member, the tube hole 14 is arranged on the plate body 9 of the plate 9, the snap groove and the tube hole 14 are arranged at intervals, when the connector 10 is connected to the plate 9, the snap column 103 is inserted into the snap groove, and the positioning member is inserted into the tube hole 14. The snap column 103 is fixed in the snap groove by fasteners such as screws, thereby realizing the connection between the connector 10 and the plate 9.

[0044] It can be understood that a lock hole 104 is reserved inside the snap post 103. One end of the fastener is threadedly connected to the lock hole 104 on the snap post 103 located in the inner cavity of the groove 12 through the opening of the groove 12, and the other end of the fastener is located outside the opening, thereby keeping the connecting member 10 and the plate member 9 firmly connected.

[0045] The snap post 103 can be connected to a target member such as the plate member 9. Through positioning by the positioning member, the snap post 103 can be connected to the target position on the target member. For example, by inserting the positioning member into the corresponding position of the plate member 9, it can be ensured that the snap post 103 can be accurately inserted into the groove 12. The positioning member can also prevent the reverse connection of the connecting member 10, achieving an anti-fooling effect, that is, the connecting member 10 can only be successfully connected to the plate member 9 in the specified position state.

[0046] In an alternative embodiment, the snap post 103 is located at the corner of the edge of the end portion 102, the positioning member is located at the corner of the other edge of the end portion 102, the snap groove is the groove 12, the snap post 103 is inserted into the groove 12, and the snap post 103 and the plate member 9 are firmly connected by a fastener.

[0047] It can be understood that the snap post 103 has a flat columnar structure, and the outer edges on both sides of the snap post 103 are arc-shaped structures, so that the snap post 103 can be inserted into the snap groove more smoothly.

[0048] In an alternative embodiment, the positioning member includes a first positioning member 105 and a second positioning member 106. Both the first positioning member 105 and the second positioning member 106 are L-shaped. The first positioning member 105, the second positioning member 106, and the snap post 103 are respectively located at three corners on the end portion 102 of the connecting member body 101, and the connection lines between the three corners form a triangle. Through the triangle, the connecting member 10 can maintain better stability when connected to the plate member 9.

[0049] The first limiting hole 141 and the second limiting hole 142 adapted to the first positioning member 105 and the second positioning member 106 respectively are provided on the pipe hole 14. The first limiting hole 141 and the second limiting hole 142 are located at two corners of the pipe hole 14. The first positioning member 105 is movably inserted into the first limiting hole 141, and the second positioning member 106 is movably inserted into the second limiting hole 142. When the first positioning member 105 is inserted into the first limiting hole 141, the two extensions of the L-shaped first positioning member 105 respectively abut against the two inner walls of the first limiting hole 141. Similarly, when the second positioning member 106 is inserted into the second limiting hole 142, the two extensions of the L-shaped second positioning member 106 respectively abut against the two inner walls of the second limiting hole 142.

[0050] Exemplarily, the tube hole 14 may be a through hole that penetrates through the plate body 9 of the plate member 9. The groove 12 is parallel to the through hole and is located outside the through hole.

[0051] In an alternative embodiment, the plate body 9 includes an inwardly inclined surface.

[0052] Reference Figure 2 , when the plate body 9 has an inclined surface and the plate member 9 is assembled to the cabinet body 100, when a person views the cabinet from the front, a visual dislocation is formed between the inclined surface and the cavity of the cabinet body 100, so that a layered and three-dimensional effect can be visually formed, and the user experience is higher.

[0053] Exemplarily, the plate member 9 is made of an aluminum material, the connecting member 10 is made of a metal material and can be a hardware product, and the cabinet body 100 is made of a plate. By combining the metal aluminum material and the non-metal plate together, a cabinet with a specific style is formed to meet the personalized needs of users and improve the user experience.

[0054] In the utility model, the connecting member 10 joins the plate members 9 together, which can avoid the problem that obvious gaps are directly formed between two traditional connected plate members 9, and the corners of the cabinet are smoother and tighter. In addition, the decorative frame with the connecting member 10 plays an overall decorative effect on the cabinet. And by joining each plate member 9 together through the connecting member 10, there is no need for the traditional splicing process in which the precisely aligned 45° inclined cross-sections of the two are fitted together. Compared with the traditional splicing process, the splicing of the utility model is simpler and faster, and has lower requirements for the experience of the assembly personnel.

[0055] In addition, the cabinet assembled by matching the decorative frame with an inclined surface and the cabinet body 100 has a layered and three-dimensional effect.
