[0025] Embodiment 1
[0026] As Figure 1 - Figure 4 shown, a drawer flipping structure for a motorhome is installed in the motorhome; this flipping structure includes a drawer body 1, a flap 2, a catch rod 3, and a catch body 4. The drawer body 1 is installed in the cabinet 5 of the motorhome, and the drawer body 1 and the cabinet 5 form an opening space capable of storing items; the flap 2 is hinged to the cabinet 5, the flap 2 is arranged directly in front of the drawer body 1, and the flap 2 can open and close the opening space for accessing items; the catch rod 3 is connected to the flap 2 and moves together, the catch body 4 is installed on the cabinet 5, and the catch rod 3 and the catch body 4 are used in cooperation, and the two can lock the flap 2 after it is closed.
[0027] In this embodiment, the catch rod 3 and the catch body 4 are a set of roller-type plastic catches for achieving the locking function, and suitable roller-type plastic catch products can be selected on the market. The catch rod 3 is made of plastic and includes an integral connecting plate 31 and a buckle 32. The connecting plate 31 is in the shape of a strip plate, and the buckle 32 is in the shape of a triangular arrow; the catch body 4 is made of plastic and includes an integral fixing plate 41 and a slot structure 42. The fixing plate 41 is in the shape of a square plate, and the slot structure 42 is a V-shaped groove structure formed by a V-shaped rod and rollers connected to both ends of the V-shaped rod; the buckle 32 can be inserted and clamped into the slot structure 42 or withdrawn from the slot structure 42. The connecting plate 31 moves together with the flap 2, and the fixing plate 41 is fixedly installed on the cabinet body 5.
[0028] In this embodiment, the flap 2 and the cabinet body 5 are hinged by a damping hinge 6, and a suitable product of the damping hinge 6 can be selected on the market; the damping hinge 6 is installed on the hinge mounting seat 7. The hinge mounting seat 7 is in the overall shape of a U-shaped plate, and the structural shape of the hinge mounting seat 7 is adapted to the structural shape of the damping hinge 6. The connecting plate 31 of the catch rod 3 is fixed to the side of the hinge mounting seat 7. A set of roller-type plastic catches, a set of damping hinges 6, and a set of hinge mounting seats 7 are provided at both the left and right ends of the flap 2 or the cabinet body 5.
[0029] In this embodiment, the damping hinge 6 includes a first connecting member 61, a second connecting member 62, and a nut locking member 63. The nut locking member 63 includes a locking nut, a rotating shaft, etc. The first connecting member 61 and the second connecting member 62 are hinged by the rotating shaft, and the first connecting member 61 and the second connecting member 62 can rotate relative to each other with the rotating shaft as the axis; the first connecting member 61 is fixedly installed on the hinge mounting seat 7, and the second connecting member 62 can be connected and installed to any structure in the recreational vehicle; the locking nut is screwed onto the rotating shaft, and the tightness of the damping hinge 6 is adjusted by the locking nut; one end of the rotating shaft passes through the cabinet body 5 and is fixedly connected to the flap 2. The damping hinge 6 can play a role in adjusting the tightness during the rotation of the flap 2, improving the texture.
[0030] In practical applications, the cabinet body 5 (of the recreational vehicle) is a prior art, and the roller-type plastic catches (catch rod 3, catch body 4) and the damping hinge 6 (first connecting member 61, second connecting member 62, nut locking member 63) are existing mature products, which will not be elaborated here.
[0031] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: After installing the drawer main body 1 into the cabinet body 5 in the recreational vehicle and installing the rest of the components, if you want to store items in the drawer, you can manually flip the flap 2 relative to the cabinet body 5. After the flap 2 rotates 90 degrees, you can store items in the drawer main body 1; if you want to close the drawer, flip the flap 2 relative to the cabinet body 5 in the reverse direction, so that the catch rod 3 is inserted into the catch body 4, thereby locking and closing the flap 2.
[0032] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: This drawer flipping structure can avoid the problem of insufficient space when a person is sitting in a vehicle during the traditional drawer pulling out; this drawer flipping structure can save occupied space, has a simple overall structure, is easy to manufacture, process, disassemble and assemble, and has a low cost.
[0033] Embodiment 2
[0034] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the flap 2 and the cabinet body 5 are directly hinged through a hinge shaft, and the catch rod 3 is connected to the hinge shaft.
[0035] In this embodiment, one end of the hinge shaft is fixed to the flap 2 and the other end directly penetrates and extends out of the cabinet body 5, and the connecting plate 31 of the catch rod 3 is fixed to the part of the hinge shaft extending out of the cabinet body 5. A hinge shaft is connected to each of the left and right ends of the flap 2.
[0036] In this embodiment, since the damping hinge 6 is not used and the hinge shaft is directly used for hinging, the structure is more simplified and the cost is lower.
[0037] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are as follows: This drawer flipping structure can avoid the problem of insufficient space when a person is sitting in a vehicle during the traditional drawer pulling out; this drawer flipping structure can save occupied space, has a simple overall structure, is easy to manufacture, process, disassemble and assemble, and has a low cost.
[0038] As described above, only the specific embodiments of the present invention are provided, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
