Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, in particular to an installation structure of a dishwasher and an embedded dishwasher. Background Art
[0002] Built-in dishwashers are designed to be fully or partially embedded in kitchen cabinets, forming an integral structure with the cabinets. They have the advantages of saving space and improving the overall aesthetics of the kitchen.
[0003] In the prior art, built-in dishwashers include a door that opens and closes. To prevent the built-in dishwasher from shifting or even being pulled out of the cabinet when the door is opened, it is necessary to secure the built-in dishwasher to the inner walls of the cabinet during installation. This is typically achieved by using self-tapping screws that penetrate the built-in dishwasher's inner casing and then tap into the cabinet's side panels.
[0004] However, when the cabinet is made of a relatively hard material such as marble or rock slabs, the self-tapping screws cannot fix the built-in dishwasher to the cabinet, which brings difficulties to the installation of the built-in dishwasher. Utility Model Content
[0005] One of the technical problems solved by the present invention is to provide a mounting structure for a dishwasher, which can achieve fixed installation between a built-in dishwasher and a cabinet made of a hard material.
[0006] The second technical problem solved by the present invention is to provide a built-in dishwasher, which can achieve fixed installation between the built-in dishwasher and a cabinet made of hard material.
[0007] The first technical problem mentioned above is solved by the following technical solution:

[0009] a guide sleeve configured to be fixed through a side wall of an inner container of the built-in dishwasher;
[0010] an abutment member, movably provided at one end of the guide sleeve and capable of abutting against the inner wall of the cabinet;
[0011] The adjusting member can be movably inserted into the guide sleeve from the other end of the guide sleeve and can be moved to be connected with the abutting member, and drive the abutting member to move toward the inner wall of the cabinet.
[0012] Compared with the background art, the installation structure of the dishwasher described in the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] When using the dishwasher's installation structure, the guide sleeve is first fixed through the side wall of the built-in dishwasher's inner container; then, an abutment is movably mounted on one end of the guide sleeve (understandably, this end is the end of the guide sleeve located outside the inner container). Once the inner container is successfully placed in the cabinet, the adjustment member is then moved through the guide sleeve, and its position is adjusted so that it moves to connect with the abutment. The abutment is then driven toward the inner wall of the cabinet until it stably abuts the inner wall. At this point, even if the user opens the door of the built-in dishwasher, the abutment is stably abutted against the inner wall of the cabinet, and the abutment force can limit the movement of the inner container, preventing it from shifting.
[0014] At the same time, with the installation structure of the dishwasher, even if the cabinet is made of a relatively hard material such as marble or rock slab, the abutment can stably abut against the inner wall of the cabinet, ensuring the fixation of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet.
[0015] In one embodiment, a plurality of flexible columns are spaced apart on the free end surface of the abutment member along the circumference of the abutment member.
[0016] In one embodiment, the mounting structure of the dishwasher further includes a guide sleeve, which is configured to be fixedly passed through the side wall of the inner tank, the abutment member is movably provided at one end of the guide sleeve, and the adjustment member can be movably passed through the guide sleeve from the other end of the guide sleeve and can move to connect with the adjustment member.
[0017] In one embodiment, the adjusting member includes a threaded shaft segment, and the abutment member is provided with a threaded blind hole that threadably cooperates with the threaded shaft segment. The threaded shaft segment is movably inserted into the guide sleeve from the other end of the guide sleeve and can move to be threadedly connected with the threaded blind hole.
[0018] In one embodiment, the adjusting member further includes a screw cap, and the screw cap is arranged at an end of the threaded shaft section away from the abutment member.
[0019] In one embodiment, the other end of the guide sleeve is provided with a screw cap receiving groove for receiving the screw cap.
[0020] In one embodiment, an abutment member installation cavity is provided at one end of the guide sleeve, and the abutment member is at least partially engaged in the abutment member installation cavity.
[0021] In one embodiment, the guide sleeve comprises:
[0022] A guide sleeve body, wherein the guide sleeve body is provided with a through hole for the adjusting member to movably pass through;
[0023] a first stopper, disposed at an end of the guide sleeve body away from the abutment member and configured to abut against an inner side wall of the liner;
[0024] The second stopper is arranged on the outer periphery of the guide sleeve body and extends along the axial direction of the guide sleeve. It is made of flexible material and is arranged on the side wall of the guide sleeve body. The height of the second stopper gradually decreases in the direction approaching the abutment member. The second stopper is configured to abut against the outer wall of the inner liner.
[0025] The second technical problem mentioned above is solved by the following technical solution:
[0026] An embedded dishwasher includes an inner tank and the above-mentioned mounting structure of the dishwasher, wherein a guide sleeve is fixedly passed through the side wall of the inner tank, an abutment is movably provided at one end of the guide sleeve, and an adjustment member can be movably passed through the guide sleeve from the other end of the guide sleeve and can move to connect with the abutment.
[0027] Compared with the background technology, the built-in dishwasher described in the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0028] When installing the built-in dishwasher into a cabinet, the guide sleeve is first fixed through the side wall of the built-in dishwasher's inner container; then, an abutment is movably mounted on one end of the guide sleeve (understandably, this end is the end of the guide sleeve located outside the inner container). Once the inner container is successfully placed into the cabinet, the adjustment member is then moved through the guide sleeve, and the position of the adjustment member is adjusted so that the adjustment member moves to connect with the abutment. The abutment is then driven toward the inner wall of the cabinet until it stably abuts the inner wall of the cabinet. At this point, even if the user opens the door of the built-in dishwasher, the abutment is stably abutted against the inner wall of the cabinet, and the abutment force can limit the movement of the inner container, preventing it from shifting.
[0029] At the same time, with the installation structure of the dishwasher, even if the cabinet is made of a relatively hard material such as marble or rock slab, the abutment can stably abut against the inner wall of the cabinet, ensuring the fixation of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet.
[0030] In one embodiment, a mounting hole is provided on the side wall of the inner container, and the guide sleeve is fixedly installed through the mounting hole. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , this embodiment provides a built-in dishwasher.
[0050] See also Figure 1 Specifically, in this embodiment, the built-in dishwasher includes an inner tank 100 and a mounting structure of the dishwasher.
[0051] The installation structure of the dishwasher is used to fix the built-in dishwasher to the cabinet 200.
[0052] See also Figure 2 The installation structure of the dishwasher includes a guide sleeve 3, a contact member 1 and an adjustment member 2.
[0053] The guide sleeve 3 is configured to be fixed through the side wall of the inner container 100 of the built-in dishwasher.
[0054] The abutting member 1 is movably disposed at one end of the guide sleeve 3 and is capable of abutting against the inner wall of the cabinet 200 .
[0055] The adjusting member 2 can be movably inserted into the guide sleeve 3 from the other end of the guide sleeve 3 and can move to connect with the abutting member 1 and drive the abutting member 1 to move toward the inner wall of the cabinet 200. The guide sleeve 3 can guide the movement of the adjusting member 2.
[0056] When using the installation structure of the dishwasher provided in this embodiment, the guide sleeve 3 is first fixed through the side wall of the inner tank 100 of the built-in dishwasher; then the abutment 1 is movably set on one end of the guide sleeve 3 (it can be understood that this end is the end of the guide sleeve 3 located outside the inner tank). After the inner tank 100 is successfully placed in the cabinet 200, the adjustment member 2 is movably passed through the guide sleeve 3, and the position of the adjustment member 2 is adjusted so that the adjustment member 2 moves to connect with the abutment 1. Then, the abutment 1 is driven toward the inner wall of the cabinet 200 until the abutment 1 stably abuts the inner wall of the cabinet 200. At this point, even if the user opens the door of the built-in dishwasher, because the abutment 1 stably abuts the inner wall of the cabinet 200, the abutment force can limit the movement of the inner tank 100 and prevent the inner tank 100 from shifting.
[0057] At the same time, with the installation structure of the dishwasher, even if the cabinet 200 is made of a relatively hard material such as marble or rock slab, the abutment 1 can stably abut against the inner wall of the cabinet 200 to ensure the fixation of the built-in dishwasher and the cabinet 200.
[0058] It is understandable that a built-in dishwasher can be equipped with multiple dishwasher mounting structures. For example, in this embodiment, two opposite side walls of the inner container 100 are provided with dishwasher mounting structures.
[0059] Optionally, in this embodiment, the abutment 1 is made of a flexible material to ensure that the adjustment member 2 can drive the abutment 1 to move to stably abut against the inner wall of the cabinet 200, fully ensuring that the abutment force there can resist the pulling force toward the outside of the cabinet 200 applied to the built-in dishwasher when the door of the built-in dishwasher is opened.
[0060] In the built-in dishwasher, the guide sleeve 3 is fixed through the side wall of the inner tank 100, the abutment 1 is movably set at one end of the guide sleeve 3, and the adjustment member 2 can be movably passed through the guide sleeve 3 from the other end and can move to connect with the abutment 1.
[0061] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 In one embodiment, a mounting hole 1001 is opened on the side wall of the inner container 100, and the guide sleeve 3 is fixedly installed through the mounting hole 1001.
[0062] See also Figure 6 In one embodiment, a plurality of flexible columns 11 are spaced apart on the free end surface of the abutment member 1 along the circumference of the abutment member 1 .
[0063] The flexible columns 11 are relatively soft. When the abutment 1 abuts against the inner wall of the cabinet 200, multiple flexible columns 11 can increase the friction between the abutment 1 and the inner wall of the cabinet 200, further preventing the dishwasher from moving relative to the cabinet 200 when the dishwasher door is opened.
[0064] Specifically, in this embodiment, the abutment member 1 is an integrally formed block-shaped structure. Multiple flexible columns 11, optionally made of rubber, increase the friction between the abutment member 1 and the inner wall of the cabinet 200. With this abutment member 1, when the built-in dishwasher needs to be removed from the cabinet, the adjustment member 2 gradually drives the abutment member 1 away from the inner wall of the cabinet 200, thereby achieving removal.
[0065] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the abutment 1 may be a suction cup. When the adjustment member 2 drives the abutment 1 toward the inner wall of the cabinet 200, the air between the surface of the abutment 1 facing the inner wall of the cabinet 200 and the inner wall of the cabinet 200 is exhausted. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, the abutment 1 firmly adheres to the inner wall of the cabinet 200, fully ensuring the position limiting effect on the built-in dishwasher. It should be noted that the abutment 1 using a suction cup structure has a stronger abutment force between the abutment 1 and the interior of the cabinet 200, and its position limiting effect on the built-in dishwasher is also better. However, when the built-in dishwasher needs to be removed from the cabinet, it is necessary to first use a tool to eliminate the adsorption force between the abutment 1 and the inner wall of the cabinet 200.
[0066] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment, the adjusting member 2 includes a threaded shaft segment 21, and the abutting member 1 is provided with a threaded blind hole 12 that is threadedly matched with the threaded shaft segment 21. The threaded shaft segment 21 is movably inserted into the guide sleeve 3 from the other end of the guide sleeve 3 and can move to be threadedly connected with the threaded blind hole 12.
[0067] The threaded shaft section 21 cooperates with the threaded blind hole 12 to ensure that the adjusting member 2 can stably drive the abutting member 1 to move.
[0068] When installing the dishwasher, after the threaded shaft section 21 contacts the threaded blind hole 12, continue to screw the threaded shaft section 21 until the threaded shaft section 21 is screwed into the threaded blind hole 12; then continue to screw the threaded shaft section 21 toward the inner wall of the cabinet 200. The threaded shaft section 21 can drive the abutment 1 to rotate until the abutment 1 abuts and is adsorbed against the inner wall of the cabinet 200.
[0069] When the dishwasher needs to be moved out of the cabinet, the threaded shaft section 21 is screwed in the reverse direction until the threaded shaft section 21 drives the abutment member 1 to completely separate from the inner wall of the cabinet 200 . At this time, the dishwasher can be moved out smoothly.
[0070] Furthermore, in one embodiment, in order to facilitate screwing of the adjusting member 2 , the adjusting member 2 further includes a screw cap 22 . The screw cap 22 is disposed at an end of the threaded shaft section 21 away from the abutting member 1 .
[0071] Optionally, the adjusting member 2 is a screw.
[0072] Furthermore, in one of the embodiments, in order to prevent the screw cap 22 from being exposed after the dishwasher is installed in place, thereby ensuring the aesthetics of the product while avoiding affecting the safety of the user, a screw cap receiving groove 32 for accommodating the screw cap 22 is provided at the other end of the guide sleeve 3.
[0073] When the abutting member 1 abuts against and is adsorbed onto the inner wall of the cabinet 200 , the screw cap 22 is exactly located in the screw cap receiving groove 32 .
[0074] Furthermore, in one embodiment, an abutment member installation cavity 31 is provided at one end of the guide sleeve 3 , and the abutment member 1 is at least partially engaged in the abutment member installation cavity 31 .
[0075] It is understood that before the dishwasher is installed in the cabinet 200, the guide sleeve 3 has been installed on the inner container 100, and then the abutment 1 is installed in the abutment installation cavity 31. Because the abutment 1 is at least partially engaged in the abutment installation cavity 31, the abutment 1 will not fall off the inner container 100 during the process of installing the dishwasher into the cabinet 200.
[0076] Alternatively, see Figure 6 The abutment 1 is a rotating body structure, which includes a cylindrical abutment body, a flexible column 11 is arranged on one end surface of the abutment body, and a threaded blind hole 12 is recessed and arranged on the other end surface of the abutment body.
[0077] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the abutment body is the same as the inner diameter of the abutment installation cavity 31, which not only ensures that the abutment body is clamped in the abutment installation cavity 31, but also ensures that the abutment body can move relative to the abutment installation cavity 31 under the drive of the adjusting member 2.
[0078] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8 In one embodiment, the guide sleeve 3 includes a guide sleeve body 33 , a first stopper 34 and a second stopper 35 .
[0079] The guide sleeve body 33 is provided with a through hole for the adjusting member 2 to movably pass through.
[0080] The first stopper 34 is disposed at one end of the guide sleeve body 33 away from the abutment member 1 and is configured to abut against the inner wall of the inner container 100 .
[0081] The second stop member 35 is arranged on the outer periphery of the guide sleeve body 33 and extends along the axial direction of the guide sleeve 3. It is made of flexible material and is arranged on the side wall of the guide sleeve body 33. As it approaches the abutment 1, the height of the second stop member 35 gradually decreases. The second stop member 35 is configured to abut against the outer wall of the inner liner 100.
[0082] When installing the guide sleeve 3, the end of the guide sleeve 3 provided with the abutment mounting cavity 31 is directed toward the mounting hole 1001. The guide sleeve 3 is passed through the mounting hole 1001. During the process of passing through the mounting hole 1001, the lower end of the second stopper 35 gradually passes through the mounting hole 1001 along with the guide sleeve body 33 and is squeezed and deformed. When the first stopper 34 moves to abut against the inner wall of the inner liner 100, the second stopper 35 just passes completely out of the mounting hole 1001 and abuts against the outer wall of the inner liner 100. This ensures that the guide sleeve 3 will not fall off the inner liner 100 after it is properly installed.
[0083] Optionally, the guide sleeve 3 is an integrally formed structure and is made of rubber.
[0084] In one embodiment, a plurality of second stoppers 35 are provided at intervals along the circumference of the guide sleeve body 33. This arrangement can fully prevent the second stoppers 35 from failing in their limiting function.
[0085] Furthermore, the first stopper 34 is a rotary structure, which fully ensures the limiting effect of the first stopper 34 .
[0086] For example, in this embodiment, the installation process of the dishwasher is as follows:
[0087] Insert the guide sleeve 3 through the mounting hole 1001 until the first stopper 34 moves to abut against the inner wall of the inner container 100 and the second stopper 35 abuts against the outer wall of the inner container 100;
[0088] Install the abutment member 1 into the abutment member installation cavity 31;
[0089] Push the dishwasher into the cabinet 200;
[0090] The adjusting member 2 is passed through the guide sleeve 3 and screwed onto the abutting member 1 . The adjusting member 2 is screwed on until the abutting member 1 abuts against the inner wall of the cabinet 200 .
[0091] In the specific contents of the above-mentioned specific implementation methods, the various technical features can be combined in any non-contradictory manner. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the above-mentioned technical features are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0092] The specific contents of the above-mentioned specific embodiments only express several embodiments of the present invention. Although the description is relatively specific and detailed, it should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be based on the appended claims.
