[0011] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, a sunken cavity is provided in the water collection area, and the cavity is nested with a through groove. The nesting between the cavity and the through groove limits the horizontal movement of the water collection tray on the base frame. The walls of the cavity are inclined and converge to the bottom of the cavity.

[0012] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, a first water-blocking edge is formed by extending along the edge of the water collection tray toward the opening of the concave cavity. The first water-blocking edge around the trolley forms a first cavity with a side seal, wherein the first cavity is connected to the concave cavity.

[0013] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, a limiting baffle is provided on the mounting plane or the steaming tray support, wherein the water collection tray is located between the base frame and the limiting baffle.

[0014] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, the edge of the limiting baffle extends along the opening direction of the concave cavity to form a second water-blocking edge. The second water-blocking edge surrounds a second cavity with a side seal. A slot is provided on the bottom of the second cavity, and the slot is located above the water collection tray.

[0015] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, the steaming tray support is U-shaped, and the two sides of the open end of the steaming tray support extend in the same direction to form legs. The steaming tray support is connected to the mounting plane through the legs, and a height difference is formed between the steaming tray support and the water collection tray.

[0016] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, the tray support includes two oppositely arranged steaming tray support rods, which are U-shaped. The two sides of the open end of the steaming tray support rod are respectively connected to the two sides of the open end of the steaming tray support. Multiple steaming tray support rods are connected between the two steaming tray support rods, and the two steaming tray support rods on the same horizontal plane form a workstation for placing the steaming trays.

[0017] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, a rotatable limiting part can be provided on each of the two steaming tray support rods, and the two limiting parts are arranged diagonally.

[0018] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, the limiting part includes a vertically arranged limiting rod, and the two ends of the limiting rod are respectively rotatably connected to the first limiting member on the steaming tray support rod. The middle part of the limiting rod extends into an L-shaped locking rod, and the vertical end of the locking rod is inserted into the second limiting member on the steaming tray support rod.

[0019] In the aforementioned steaming tray trolley, a recessed open groove is provided on the second limiting member, and the opening direction of the groove is horizontal. A limiting protrusion is provided at the groove opening. A locking channel is formed between one side of the limiting protrusion and one side of the groove wall, and an unlocking channel is formed between the other side of the limiting protrusion and the other side of the groove wall.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, this utility model

[0021] (1) The present invention provides a steaming tray cart with a water collection tray below the steaming tray rack for placing the steaming tray, so that the water droplets formed by liquefaction from the steaming tray can drip directly into the water collection tray, thereby ensuring that the road surface of the steaming tray cart is clean and tidy, thereby eliminating the safety hazards caused by the slippery road surface.

[0022] (2) By setting the first water-blocking edge, the water collection area of ​​the water collection tray is expanded, and the water in the water collection tray is prevented from splashing out of the water collection tray during the movement of the steam tray cart. In addition, the strength of the entire water collection tray is improved by setting the first water-blocking edge.

[0023] (3) By setting a limit baffle, the movement of the water collection tray in the vertical direction can be limited. If a bumpy road section is encountered, the water collection tray that has detached from the base frame will be pressed back against the base frame under the action of the limit baffle, thereby improving the reliability of the water collection tray during use.

[0024] (4) A slot is provided on the bottom of the second cavity of the limiting baffle, which can drain the water in the second cavity into the water collection tray in time, avoid excessive water accumulation in the limiting baffle and overflow, and further improve the reliability of water collection.

[0025] (5) There is a height difference between the steaming tray support and the water collection tray, so that when the steaming tray trolley is pushed into the steaming equipment, the structure above the steaming tray support is inside the steaming equipment, and the structure below the steaming tray support is outside the steaming equipment. This can eliminate the hygiene hazards caused by the wheels on the steaming tray trolley. In addition, since the structure below the steaming tray support is outside the steaming equipment, that is, the water collection tray is outside the steaming equipment, when steam overflows from the door gap of the steaming equipment and condenses into water droplets, it can also be collected by the water collection tray, thereby ensuring that the environment around the steaming equipment is dry.

[0026] (6) By setting two limiting parts, the movement of the steaming tray in the horizontal direction is limited. The two limiting parts are set diagonally to avoid the steaming tray from deflecting when it moves slightly within the work station, thereby improving the reliability of the steaming tray placement. In addition, the limiting part can rotate, so it will not affect the steaming tray when it is picked up or placed. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0040] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the present invention provides a steaming tray cart, comprising:

[0042] The movable base assembly 100 includes a base 110 having a mounting plane 111, and a through groove 112 provided on the mounting plane 111;

[0043] A water collection tray 200 is embedded in a through groove 112, and the edge of the water collection tray 200 rests on the mounting plane 111, wherein the middle part of the water collection tray 200 serves as a water collection area.

[0044] The steaming tray rack 300 includes a steaming tray support 310 connected to the mounting plane 111 and a tray support 320 connected to the steaming tray support 310. The steaming tray support 310 is located above the water collection tray 200, and multiple workstations for placing steaming trays are provided on the steaming tray support 310 along the length of the steaming tray support 310.

[0045] The pusher assembly 400 includes a pusher mounting plate 410 mounted on the mounting plane 111 or the steaming tray support 310, and a handle 420 mounted on the pusher mounting plate 410, wherein the handle 420 is vertically arranged.

[0046] The present invention provides a steaming tray cart, which has a water collection tray 200 below the steaming tray rack 300 for placing the steaming trays, so that the water droplets formed by liquefaction from the steaming trays can drip directly into the water collection tray 200, thereby ensuring that the road surface on which the steaming tray cart travels is clean and tidy, thus eliminating the safety hazards caused by the slippery road surface.

[0047] Preferably, a sunken cavity 210 is provided in the water collection area, and the cavity 210 is nested with the through groove 112. The nesting between the cavity 210 and the through groove 112 limits the horizontal movement of the water collection plate 200 on the base frame 110. The walls of the cavity 210 are inclined and converge to the bottom of the cavity 210.

[0048] It is further pointed out that a first water-blocking edge 220 is formed by extending along the edge of the water collection plate 200 toward the opening direction of the concave cavity 210, and a first cavity 230 with a side seal is formed by the first water-blocking edge 220 around the perimeter, wherein the first cavity 230 is connected to the concave cavity 210.

[0049] In this embodiment, by setting the first water-blocking edge 220, the water collection area of ​​the water collection tray 200 is expanded, and the water accumulated in the water collection tray 200 is prevented from splashing out of the water collection tray 200 during the movement of the steam tray trolley. In addition, the setting of the first water-blocking edge 220 improves the strength of the entire water collection tray 200.

[0050] In a further preferred embodiment, a drainer 240 is provided at the bottom of the cavity 210. After the steaming tray trolley has finished working, it can be pushed to the drainage area. At this time, the drainer 240 is opened to drain the water in the collection tray 200 into the drainage area. This avoids the need for employees to remove the collection tray 200 from the steaming tray trolley and empty the water, saving time and effort. Moreover, the collection tray 200 is prone to shaking during the removal process, which may cause the water in the collection tray 200 to overflow, wetting the employees' clothes or wetting the road surface again.

[0051] Preferably, a limiting baffle 500 is provided on the mounting plane 111 or the steaming tray support 310, wherein the water collection tray 200 is located between the base frame 110 and the limiting baffle 500.

[0052] It is worth mentioning that, because the water collection tray 200 has a recessed cavity 210 that nests with the through groove 112, the horizontal movement of the water collection tray 200 on the base frame 110 is limited. However, the vertical movement of the water collection tray 200 is not limited. Moreover, the road surface is not always flat during the movement of the steaming tray trolley, resulting in bumps. Since there is no fixing structure between the water collection tray 200 and the base frame 110, it is necessary to limit the vertical movement of the water collection tray 200 in this embodiment. In the event of a bumpy road, the water collection tray 200, which has detached from the base frame 110, is pressed back against the base frame 110 by the limiting baffle 500, thereby improving the reliability of the water collection tray 200 during use.

[0053] In a further preferred embodiment, the edge of the limiting baffle 500 extends along the opening direction of the recess 210 to form a second water-blocking edge 510, and the second water-blocking edge 510 surrounds a second cavity 520 with a side seal.

[0054] It is worth mentioning that when the steaming tray cart is moving, the water droplets attached to the outer surface of the steaming tray will drift to the side where the handle 420 is located due to inertia. At this time, the second cavity 520 on the limiting baffle 500 can collect water, and the setting of the second water-blocking edge 510 can also improve the strength of the limiting baffle 500.

[0055] More preferably, a slot 530 is provided on the limiting baffle 500, and the slot 530 is located at the bottom of the second cavity 520, wherein the slot 530 is located above the water collection tray 200.

[0056] It is worth mentioning that although the second cavity 520 can collect water, its volume is not large and the width of the second water-blocking edge 510 is not high, so the water collection capacity of the limiting baffle 500 is limited. Therefore, a slot 530 is provided on the bottom of the second cavity 520 of the limiting baffle 500 to drain the water in the second cavity 520 into the water collection tray 200 in time, so as to prevent excessive water accumulation in the limiting baffle 500 and overflow, and further improve the reliability of water collection.

[0057] Preferably, the steaming tray support 310 is U-shaped, and the two sides of the open end of the steaming tray support 310 extend in the same direction to form support legs 311. The steaming tray support 310 is connected to the mounting plane 111 through the support legs 311, and a height difference is formed between the steaming tray support 310 and the water collection tray 200.

[0058] It is worth mentioning that in the prior art, when steaming food in the steaming tray, the entire steaming tray trolley is placed into the steaming equipment. However, the wheels of the steaming tray trolley are always in contact with the ground, so they inevitably become contaminated with pollutants. If the entire steaming tray trolley is pushed into the steaming equipment, the food may be contaminated, posing a hygiene hazard. Therefore, in this embodiment, a height difference is provided between the steaming tray support 310 and the water collection tray 200, so that when the steaming tray trolley is pushed into the steaming equipment, the structure above the steaming tray support 310 is inside the steaming equipment, and the structure below the steaming tray support 310 is outside the steaming equipment. This eliminates the hygiene hazard caused by the wheels of the steaming tray trolley. In addition, since the structure below the steaming tray support 310 is outside the steaming equipment, that is, the water collection tray 200 is outside the steaming equipment, when steam overflows from the door gap of the steaming equipment and condenses into water droplets, it can also be collected by the water collection tray 200, thereby ensuring that the environment around the steaming equipment is dry.

[0059] More preferably, the tray support 320 includes two oppositely arranged steaming tray support rods 321, and the steaming tray support rods 321 are arranged in a U-shape. The two sides of the open end of the steaming tray support rods 321 are respectively connected to the two sides of the open end of the steaming tray support 310. A plurality of steaming tray support rods 322 are connected between the two steaming tray support rods 321, and the two steaming tray support rods 322 on the same horizontal plane form a work position for placing the steaming trays.

[0060] It is worth mentioning that the steaming tray support rod 322 is U-shaped, and the openings of any two steaming tray support rods 322 on the same horizontal plane are positioned opposite each other. The closed end of the steaming tray support rod 322 is connected to the steaming tray bracket rod 321. Therefore, the steaming tray can be removed or placed by pulling it out, making the operation convenient and reliable.

[0061] Furthermore, while the pull-out design facilitates the placement and retrieval of the steaming trays, it only restricts the trays' vertical freedom of movement, not their horizontal freedom. Since the steaming tray trolley is in motion, the trays may shift relative to each other within the workstation, posing a risk of them falling. Therefore, to eliminate this risk, a rotatable limiting part 330 can be provided on each of the two steaming tray support rods 321, with the two limiting parts 330 positioned diagonally opposite each other.

[0062] In this embodiment, two limiting parts 330 are provided to limit the movement of the steaming tray in the horizontal direction. The two limiting parts 330 are arranged diagonally to prevent the steaming tray from deflecting when it moves slightly within the workstation, thereby improving the reliability of the steaming tray placement. In addition, the limiting part 330 is rotatable, so it will not affect the steaming tray when it is picked up or placed.

[0063] More preferably, the limiting part 330 includes a limiting rod 331 that is erected, and the two ends of the limiting rod 331 are rotatably connected to the first limiting member 332 on the steaming tray support rod 321, wherein an L-shaped locking rod 333 extends from the middle of the limiting rod 331, and the vertical end of the locking rod 333 is inserted into and engaged with the second limiting member 334 on the steaming tray support rod 321.

[0064] Furthermore, a recessed open groove 3341 is provided on the second limiting member 334, and the opening direction of the groove 3341 is horizontal. A limiting protrusion 3342 is provided at the groove opening of the groove 3341. A locking channel 3343 is formed between one side of the limiting protrusion 3342 and one side of the groove wall of the groove 3341, and an unlocking channel 3344 is formed between the other side of the limiting protrusion 3342 and the other side of the groove wall of the groove 3341.

[0065] It is worth mentioning that, as shown in the figure, the current locking lever 333 is located within the locking channel 3343. When unlocking is required, first pull up the limiting lever 331 so that the lateral end of the locking lever 333 is higher than the limiting protrusion 3342. Then rotate the limiting lever 331 so that the lateral end of the locking lever 333 crosses the limiting protrusion 3342. Finally, release the limiting lever 331 so that the lateral end of the locking lever 333 is located within the unlocking channel 3344, thus realizing the unlocking operation.

[0066] Furthermore, a wristband 335 is also provided on the limit rod 331 to facilitate lifting the limit rod 331.
