Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of food storage, in particular to the field of food refrigerator storage, and specifically refers to a food storage box with convenient drainage. Background Art
[0002] Due to the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the freezer storage box and the nature of the food, condensation and accumulated water usually form inside the storage box. If not cleaned in time, the water inside the box will freeze and frost, seriously affecting the storage and use of food. The existing drainage method for storage box bodies is usually to set a drainage hole with an arc at the bottom of the storage box, which is concentrated from the periphery to the middle. The inside of the box is drained and cleaned regularly, or the opening of the drainage hole is always open, so that the accumulated water inside the box can be discharged automatically. However, this drainage method has the following problems: First, the drainage hole is set locally, and the bottom of the storage box is flat or the slope is not set enough, resulting in poor drainage and requiring manual intervention. Second, if the accumulated water is not cleaned in time, it will directly contact the food, affecting the storage environment and storage effect. Third, the drainage hole is often open, the interior of the box is frequently drained, and it is impossible to prevent objects in the external environment from entering the box through the drainage hole, affecting the food storage effect. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a food storage box with convenient drainage, so as to solve the problems in the prior art of poor drainage of food storage boxes, the need for manual external force intervention for drainage, and frequent drainage.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a food storage box with convenient drainage, including a box body with an open top, an annular water collecting groove is provided on the inner bottom wall of the box body, a drainage hole is provided at the bottom of the water collecting groove, and a drainage pipe is connected to the bottom of the drainage hole.
[0005] Furthermore, the inner bottom wall is in a raised shape with a higher middle portion and lower surrounding portions.
[0006] Furthermore, the water collecting groove is in the shape of a square ring.
[0007] Furthermore, the water collecting groove is close to the side wall of the box body.
[0008] Furthermore, the drainage pipe is arranged in the insulation layer of the box body.
[0009] Furthermore, an internal valve is provided at the connection between the drain pipe and the drain hole.
[0010] Furthermore, the outer port of the drain pipe is arranged on the outer side wall of the box body, and the outer port of the drain pipe is provided with an outer valve.
[0011] Furthermore, the inner valve and the outer valve are solenoid valves connected to a drainage controller of the food storage box.
[0012] Furthermore, the outer port of the drain pipe is connected to a water collecting tank. When the food storage box needs to be drained, the inner valve and the outer valve are opened through the drain controller, and the water in the water collecting groove is discharged to the water collecting tank through the drain pipe. When the food storage box does not need to be drained, the inner valve and the outer valve are both in a closed state, and the water inside the box is stored in the water collecting groove.
[0013] Furthermore, the box body is processed by an integrated molding technology.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] The shell of the present invention redesigns the inner bottom wall structure of the food storage box, and makes a large area of the inner bottom wall of the food storage box into a divergent slope from the inside to the outside, so that the inner bottom wall of the food storage box presents a raised shape with a high middle and low surroundings. Combined with the annular water collection groove around the inner bottom wall of the food storage box, the water accumulated in the food storage box over time can rely on the water flow trend from high to low to flow along the slope into the water collection groove at the bottom of the box body, and temporarily accumulate in the water collection groove, thereby extending the period of regular drainage, avoiding frequent drainage of the storage box, and minimizing the contact of collected water with food. In addition, the inner valve and the outer valve can prevent water from accumulating in the drain pipe, extending the service life of the drain pipe, and preventing external objects from entering the box body through the drain pipe, thereby improving the storage environment in the food storage box and improving the storage effect of food.

[0024] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solution of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The food storage box shown is convenient for drainage, comprising a box body 1 with an open top, an annular water collecting groove 3 provided on the inner bottom wall 2 of the box body, a drainage hole 4 provided at the bottom of the water collecting groove 3, and a drainage pipe 5 connected to the bottom of the drainage hole 4.
[0026] Specifically, the inner bottom wall 2 is in a raised shape with a high middle and low surroundings. Figure 5 As shown, water on the bottom wall 2 of the box body flows into the water collecting groove 3 along the direction of the arrow in the figure.
[0027] Specifically, the water collecting groove 3 is in the shape of a square ring.
[0028] Specifically, the water collecting groove 3 is close to the side wall of the box body 1. The water collecting groove 3 is embedded in the insulation layer at the bottom of the box body 1 and temporarily stores water generated in the box body 1.
[0029] Specifically, the drain pipe 5 is provided in the heat-insulating layer of the housing 1. The water inside the housing 1 is drained to the outside of the housing 1 through the drain pipe 5.
[0030] Specifically, an inner valve 51 is provided at the connection between the drain pipe 5 and the drain hole 4. The inner valve prevents water inside the box body 1 from entering the drain pipe 5 and accumulating in the drain pipe 5 when the box body 1 does not need to drain, thereby extending the service life of the drain pipe 5.
[0031] Specifically, the outer end of the drain pipe 5 is provided on the outer side wall of the box body 1, and the outer end of the drain pipe 5 is provided with an outer valve 52. The outer valve 52 prevents objects outside the box body 1 from entering the drain pipe 5, thereby preventing external objects from entering the box body 1 through the drain pipe 5, thereby improving the food storage environment in the food storage box.
[0032] Specifically, the inner valve 51 and the outer valve 52 are electromagnetic valves connected to the drainage controller of the food storage box. In order to reduce production costs, the inner valve 51 and the outer valve 52 can use ordinary valves to drain the food storage box through manual intervention.
[0033] Specifically, the outer port of the drain pipe 5 is connected to a water collecting tank. When the food storage box needs to be drained, the water in the water collecting groove 3 is discharged to the water collecting tank through the drain pipe 5 through the inner valve 51 and the outer valve 52 of the drainage controller. When the food storage box does not need to be drained, the inner valve 51 and the outer valve 52 are both in a closed state, and the water inside the box body 1 is stored in the water collecting groove 3.
[0034] Specifically, the box body 1 is processed by an integrated molding technology.
[0035] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by technicians in this technical field within the essential scope of the present invention should also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
