Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cabinets, and in particular relates to a cabinet for smart home use. Background Art
[0002] The main purpose of cabinets is to provide storage space and work surfaces to meet daily needs in the kitchen such as cooking, preparing food, and storing tableware and ingredients.
[0003] After bowls and other tableware are placed in a cabinet, they are generally placed upside down or at an angle. In order to omit the structure that fixes the bowls and other tableware, the upside-down method is generally used to allow water remaining in the bowls and other tableware to fall and separate from the bowls and other tableware. This requires that the structure supporting the bowls and other tableware in the cabinet have several openings to facilitate the falling of water. However, the provision of these openings may cause smaller bowls and other tableware to fall and be damaged, especially when the size of the openings is large, which limits the application range of the cabinet. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a smart home cabinet to solve the problems in the above-mentioned background technology.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a smart home cabinet, comprising:
[0006] A cabinet body having an inner cavity;
[0007] a partition, provided as at least one, installed in the inner cavity, and used to divide the inner cavity into at least two sub-cavities distributed along a first direction;
[0008] Cabinet doors, mounted on the cabinet body and movable relative to the cabinet body, are provided with at least two doors, each of which can cooperate to block the inner cavity;
[0009] and an illumination mechanism, provided in the inner cavity, provided with at least one, for automatically increasing the brightness of the inner cavity;

[0011] With this design, when the support assembly is in use, each support portion supports a bowl or other item (hereinafter referred to as a bowl). Each support portion is movable in a first direction. Therefore, the distance between the support portions can be adjusted to accommodate bowls of different sizes, thereby expanding its applicability while reducing the number of required support portions and thus reducing costs. The separate arrangement of the support portions also facilitates the separation of any water remaining in the bowl after it is inverted onto the top of the support portion.
[0012] Preferably, the sliding portion includes two first sliding sub-portions spaced apart along the first direction and two second sliding sub-portions spaced apart along the second direction, each of the first sliding sub-portions being slidably connected to the corresponding sub-cavity wall, and both ends of the first sliding sub-portion being connected to an adjacent second sliding sub-portion; both ends of each supporting portion are slidably connected to an adjacent second sliding sub-portion; the two first sliding sub-portions and the two second sliding sub-portions enclose a water outlet;

[0014] With such a design, the support assembly can be easily dismantled to facilitate cleaning of the support assembly and dead corners in the sub-cavity, and it is also convenient to replace the support part.
[0015] Preferably, a handle is connected to the second sliding sub-part close to the cabinet door in the support assembly, and the handle is arranged on a side of the second sliding sub-part close to the cabinet door.
[0016] With this design, the user can move the entire support assembly by pulling the handle.
[0017] Preferably, the handle is elastic.
[0018] This design can avoid reducing the area of the sub-cavity occupied by the support assembly due to the provision of the handle, thereby increasing the area of the support assembly's receiving surface for receiving the bowl.
[0019] Preferably, a water absorbing component is provided at the bottom end of the sub-cavity with the supporting component therein, and the absorbing component includes a water absorbing member and two connecting members. Along the first direction, the two connecting members are respectively connected to the two ends of the water absorbing member.
[0020] With this design, when the two connecting pieces are placed at both ends of the bottom of the sub-cavity, the absorbent pad is laid flat, which reduces the difficulty of replacing the absorbent pad for the user.
[0021] Preferably, a water absorption mechanism is provided between at least some of the adjacent supporting components, and each water absorption mechanism includes a water absorption portion and a support plate disposed at the bottom of the water absorption portion, and the support plate is slidably connected to the wall of the corresponding sub-cavity.
[0022] With such a design, the support plate can separate the sub-cavity into two storage cavities distributed in the vertical direction. It supports the water absorption part by contacting the water absorption part, and also prevents water from passing through the water absorption part and falling.

[0025] Preferably, a collecting member is provided on one side of the drainage hole, the collecting member is installed on the outside of the cabinet and is used to collect water discharged through the drainage hole.
[0026] This design collects the water that is discharged through the drainage holes.
[0027] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: When the support assembly is in use, each support portion supports a bowl or other item, and each support portion is movable in a first direction. Therefore, the distance between the support portions can be adjusted to accommodate bowls of different sizes, thereby expanding the scope of application and reducing the number of support portions required, thereby lowering costs. The separate arrangement of the support portions also facilitates the separation of water remaining in a bowl or other item after it is inverted on top of the support portion.

[0048] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0049] Example 1
[0050] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the utility model provides a smart home cabinet, comprising:
[0051] The cabinet 1 has an inner cavity;
[0052] A partition 2, provided as at least one, is installed in the inner cavity and is used to divide the inner cavity into at least two sub-cavities 101 distributed along a first direction;
[0053] Cabinet doors 3, mounted on the cabinet body 1 and movable relative to the cabinet body 1, are provided with at least two doors, each of which can cooperate to block the inner cavity;
[0054] and an illumination mechanism 10, provided in the inner cavity, provided with at least one, for automatically increasing the brightness of the inner cavity;
[0055] Among them, at least one sub-cavity 101 is provided with a plurality of support components 4 spaced apart along the vertical direction, and the support components 4 all include a sliding part 401 and a plurality of support parts 402 distributed along the first direction, and the sliding parts 401 are all slidably connected to the cavity wall of the corresponding sub-cavity 101, and the sliding parts 401 can all move along the second direction, and the support parts 402 are all installed on the corresponding sliding parts 401, and the support parts 402 can all move along the first direction; the first direction and the second direction are arranged orthogonally.
[0056] The first direction is the x direction in the figure; the second direction is the y direction in the figure.
[0057] The partition 2 can be set as a plate-like structure. When the partition 2 is single, the inner cavity is divided into two sub-cavities 101. The support component 4 can be set in at least part of the sub-cavity 101 according to actual conditions. For example, when there are two sub-cavities 101, one of the sub-cavities 101 is used to place bowls and other items, and the support component 4 can be set in this sub-cavity 101.
[0058] When the support assembly 4 is in use, each support portion 402 supports a bowl or other item (hereinafter referred to as a bowl). Each support portion 402 is movable in a first direction. Therefore, the distance between the support portions 402 can be adjusted to accommodate bowls of different sizes, thereby expanding its applicability while reducing the number of support portions 402 required and thus reducing costs. The separate arrangement of the support portions 402 also facilitates the separation of any water remaining in the bowl after it is inverted onto the top of the support portion 402.
[0059] At least part of the structure of the present invention can be adjusted according to actual conditions. For example, the number of support components 4 can be adjusted according to actual conditions, and the support portion 402 can be set to a cylindrical structure, a rectangular structure, or other shapes according to actual conditions.
[0060] The connection method involved in the present invention can be achieved through different specific methods, which are not specifically limited here. However, the sliding connection method between the sliding part 401 and the cavity wall of the sub-cavity 101 is described here. This description is for reference only. Specifically, in some cases, along the first direction, both ends of the cavity wall of the sub-cavity 101 are provided with square grooves or T-shaped grooves or grooves of other shapes, and parts of both ends of the sliding part 401 are placed in adjacent grooves; in other cases, along the first direction, the two symmetrically distributed cavity walls of the sub-cavity 101 both have a convex structure, and parts of both ends of the sliding part 401 are placed on the top of the adjacent convex structure.
[0061] It should be noted that when using the support assembly 4, the distribution position of each support part 402 is adjusted in advance, and then each bowl is turned upside down in the sub-cavity 101. Before placing the bowl, the sliding part 401 can be moved along the second direction.
[0062] The present invention is provided with an illumination mechanism 10 for automatically increasing the brightness of the inner cavity and realizing the intelligence of the cabinet. The illumination mechanism 10 can be set as a single one or multiple ones and can be installed on the side wall or top wall of the inner cavity. The illumination mechanism 10 can adopt a variety of combined structures, such as including an LED light strip, a human body sensing sensor, a microcontroller, and a power management module. When in use, if someone approaches the cabinet and triggers the human body sensing sensor, the LED light strip will immediately turn on or remain on until the person leaves and automatically turns off according to the set delay time.
[0063] Example 2
[0064] In this embodiment, the sliding portion 401 includes two first sliding sub-portions 4011 spaced apart along a first direction and two second sliding sub-portions 4012 spaced apart along a second direction. Each of the first sliding sub-portions 4011 is slidably connected to the wall of the corresponding sub-cavity 101, and both ends of the first sliding sub-portion 4011 are connected to the adjacent second sliding sub-portion 4012. Both ends of each support portion 402 are slidably connected to the adjacent second sliding sub-portion 4012. The two first sliding sub-portions 4011 and the two second sliding sub-portions 4012 enclose a water outlet 4013.
[0065] The first sliding sub-portion 4011 can be separately provided from the cavity wall of the corresponding sub-cavity 101 and the adjacent second sliding sub-portion 4012 ; the supporting portion 402 can be separately provided from the adjacent second sliding sub-portion 4012 .
[0066] The first sliding sub-parts 4011 are all slidably connected to the cavity wall of the corresponding sub-cavity 101, and the sliding connection between the two can be achieved by using a sliding groove, so that the two can be separated.
[0067] In the same sliding portion 401 , any one first sliding sub-portion 4011 is connected to the corresponding two second sliding sub-portions 4012 . The first sliding sub-portion 4011 can be detachably connected to the corresponding second sliding sub-portion 4012 by means of threaded connection or the like.
[0068] The two first sliding sub-parts 4011 and the two second sliding sub-parts 4012 enclose a water outlet 4013 , and at least part of the support part 402 is located in the water outlet 4013 , so that the water separated from the bowl continues to fall through the water outlet 4013 .
[0069] The opposite ends of the two second sliding sub-parts 4012 may be provided with a sliding groove for accommodating the end of the support part 402. Through the sliding groove, the two ends of each support part 402 are slidably connected to the adjacent second sliding sub-part 4012.
[0070] The first sliding sub-section 4011 can be separated from the corresponding sub-cavity 101 cavity wall and the adjacent second sliding sub-section 4012; the support section 402 can be separated from the adjacent second sliding sub-section 4012. Such a setting can facilitate the removal of the support assembly 4 to facilitate the cleaning of the dead corners in the support assembly 4 and the sub-cavity 101, and also facilitate the replacement of the support section 402.
[0071] Example 3
[0072] In this embodiment, the second sliding sub-portion 4012 of the support assembly 4 close to the cabinet door 3 is connected to the handle 5 , and the handle 5 is disposed on a side of the second sliding sub-portion 4012 close to the cabinet door 3 .
[0073] The setting of the handle 5 makes it convenient for the user to move the support assembly 4. When more bowls are placed on the top of the support part 402, it may be inconvenient for the user to move the entire support assembly 4 by holding the second sliding sub-part 4012. At this time, the user can move the entire support assembly 4 by pulling the handle 5.
[0074] Example 4
[0075] In this embodiment, the handle 5 is elastic.
[0076] The handle 5 can be made of elastic materials such as rubber.
[0077] By setting the handle 5 to be elastic, when the cabinet door 3 covers the sub-cavity 101, the handle 5 is in a squeezed state, which can avoid the area of the support component 4 occupying the sub-cavity 101 being reduced due to the setting of the handle 5, thereby increasing the area of the support component 4 for receiving the bowl.
[0078] Example 5
[0079] In this embodiment, a water absorbing assembly 6 is provided at the bottom end of the sub-cavity 101 in which the supporting assembly 4 is provided. The water absorbing assembly 6 includes a water absorbing member 601 and two connecting members 602. Along the first direction, the two connecting members 602 are respectively connected to the two ends of the water absorbing member 601.
[0080] The water separated from the bowl gradually falls down, and in order to prevent the sub-cavity 101 from being in a wet state, the water absorption component 6 absorbs this part of the water.
[0081] The water absorbent member 601 may be configured as a water absorbent pad, such as a sponge pad, a microfiber or ultra-fine fiber water absorbent pad, etc., which directly absorbs the water separated from the bowl.
[0082] The absorbent pad is generally soft and needs to be laid flat on the bottom of the sub-cavity 101. Through the setting of the connecting piece 602, when the two connecting pieces 602 are placed at the two ends of the bottom of the sub-cavity 101, the absorbent pad completes the laying operation, reducing the difficulty of the user to replace the absorbent pad.
[0083] Example 6
[0084] In this embodiment, a water absorption mechanism 7 is provided between at least some of the adjacent support components 4. The water absorption mechanism 7 includes a water absorption portion 701 and a support plate 702 disposed at the bottom of the water absorption portion 701. The support plate 702 is slidably connected to the wall of the corresponding sub-cavity 101.
[0085] Optionally, the support plate 702 and the wall of the sub-cavity 101 can be separately provided.
[0086] The support plate 702 can separate the sub-cavity 101 into two storage cavities distributed along the vertical direction. It supports the water absorption part 701 by contacting the water absorption part 701 and prevents water from passing through the water absorption part 701 and falling.
[0087] The specific configuration of the water absorbing portion 701 may refer to the configuration of the water absorbing member 601 described above.
[0088] It should be noted that the edge of the bottom of some bowls protrudes downward. When the bowl is turned upside down, this part forms a water storage tank with an upward opening, which can store falling water and thus affect the humidity of the sub-cavity 101; through the setting of the water absorption mechanism 7, water cannot enter the water storage tank, thereby avoiding the occurrence of the above-mentioned problem.
[0089] The number and distribution of the water absorption mechanisms 7 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. For example, when a support assembly 4 is provided to receive the bowl that can form the water storage tank, a water absorption mechanism 7 needs to be provided below the support assembly 4 .
[0090] Example 7
[0091] In this embodiment, a drainage inclined plate 8 is provided between at least some of the adjacent support components 4, and the drainage inclined plate 8 is detachably connected to the cavity wall of the corresponding sub-cavity 101; a drainage hole 102 is provided on the cavity wall of the sub-cavity 101 with the drainage inclined plate 8 inside, and the drainage hole 102 is provided corresponding to the drainage inclined plate 8, and the drainage hole 102 is used to provide a channel for water to leave the sub-cavity 101.
[0092] This embodiment provides another structure for solving the problem of water entering the water tank. After the water falls, it contacts the drainage inclined plate 8, moves along the inclined direction of the drainage inclined plate 8, and finally leaves the sub-cavity 101 through the drainage hole 102.
[0093] The specific design of the drainage inclined plate 8 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. For example, the drainage inclined plate 8 can include a first inclined plate and a first baffle, and the first baffle is installed on the first inclined plate. For example, the inclination of the drainage inclined plate 8 can be adjusted.
[0094] Example 8
[0095] In this embodiment, a collecting member 9 is provided on one side of the drainage hole 102 . The collecting member 9 is installed on the outside of the cabinet 1 and is used to collect water discharged through the drainage hole 102 .
[0096] The collecting member 9 may be configured as a box-shaped structure to collect water discharged through the drainage hole 102 , and the size of the collecting member 9 may be adjusted according to the size of the drainage hole 102 .
