Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of sliding door technology, and more specifically, relates to a sliding door assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Sliding doors, also known as movable doors, are a widely used type of door and window. They are primarily made of materials such as aluminum alloy, PVC, or solid wood. To ensure smooth sliding, sliding doors generally employ single-track or double-track designs. Furthermore, some sliding doors prioritize safety, featuring multi-point locking and anti-collision designs, while also supporting intelligent functions such as electric control and sensor systems.

[0003] Existing sliding doors can only open half or part of the space when opened, which obstructs the view to a certain extent and occupies some of the user's usable space, causing inconvenience. In addition, when the sliding door is open, it is still exposed in the user's field of vision, making it easy for the sliding door to get dirty, such as with dust and oil stains, and making the overall visual space less neat and aesthetically pleasing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a sliding door assembly to solve the technical problems in the prior art where sliding doors obstruct the view when opened, occupy a certain amount of the user's effective activity space, and make the overall activity space not neat and aesthetically pleasing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: A sliding door assembly is provided, comprising: a first fixed body, a second fixed body, a fixed partition, a movable door body, a hinge, and a cover plate; a receiving space is formed between the first fixed body and the second fixed body along a first horizontal direction, the receiving space having an opening on one side along a second horizontal direction, the second horizontal direction being perpendicular to the first horizontal direction; the fixed partition is disposed within the receiving space along the first horizontal direction; the movable door body is disposed between the first fixed body and the fixed partition along the first horizontal direction and is capable of sliding along the second horizontal direction, so that the movable door body can slide from the first fixed body to the second horizontal direction. The opening is received into or exits the receiving space; the cover is movably connected to the side of the fixed partition away from the movable door body via the hinge, so that the cover can switch between a first position and a second position relative to the fixed partition; when the cover is in the first position, a portion of the cover along the second horizontal direction is received in the receiving space and folded along the first horizontal direction with the fixed partition, and another portion of the cover along the second horizontal direction extends out of the receiving space from the opening; when the cover is in the second position, the cover blocks the opening along the first horizontal direction.

[0006] Optionally, the hinge includes a hinge cup, a base, and a connecting member. The hinge cup is installed on the side of the fixed partition away from the movable door body. The hinge cup has a groove, and the base is installed on the cover plate. One end of the connecting member is hinged to the end of the groove near the opening, and the other end of the connecting member is hinged to the base.

[0007] Optionally, the coupling is L-shaped.

[0008] Optionally, the groove is provided with first hinge holes on opposite sides at one end near the opening, and the connector is provided with a second hinge hole at one end. The end of the connector with the second hinge hole extends into the groove at one end near the opening. The second hinge hole communicates with the first hinge hole, and the hinge shaft movably passes through the first hinge hole and the second hinge hole.

[0009] One end of the base is provided with a relief groove and a third hinge hole communicating with the relief groove. The other end of the connector is provided with a fourth hinge hole. The other end of the connector extends into the relief groove. The fourth hinge hole communicates with the third hinge hole. The hinge shaft is movably inserted through the third hinge hole and the fourth hinge hole.

[0010] Optionally, there may be multiple hinges, which are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the fixed partition and the cover.

[0011] Optionally, the number of movable doors is two, and the two movable doors are arranged parallel to each other along the first horizontal direction.

[0012] Optionally, the first fixing body and the second fixing body are spaced apart along the first horizontal direction, and the fixing partition is spaced apart from both the first fixing body and the second fixing body along the first horizontal direction.

[0013] Optionally, both the first fixing body and the second fixing body are cabinets.

[0014] Optionally, the sliding door assembly further includes a third fixing body, which is disposed within the receiving space and away from the opening, and is connected to the side of the fixed partition opposite to the movable door body.

[0015] Optionally, the third fixing body is a cabinet.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the sliding door assembly provided in this application are as follows: Compared with the prior art, when it is necessary to open the sliding door, the cover is switched from the second position to the first position, so that a portion of the cover along the second horizontal direction is housed in the receiving space and folded along the first horizontal direction with the fixed partition. The other portion of the cover along the second horizontal direction extends out of the receiving space from the opening. At this time, the opening is in an open state. The sliding door is pulled along the second horizontal direction, so that the sliding door gradually exits from the opening and into the receiving space. When it is necessary to close the sliding door, the sliding door is pushed in a direction opposite to the second horizontal direction, so that the sliding door gradually enters from the opening and into the receiving space. When the sliding door is completely housed in the receiving space, the cover is switched from the first position to the second position, so that the cover blocks the opening along the first horizontal direction. When the sliding door component of this application is opened, by housing the sliding door within the receiving space, it effectively avoids the sliding door from obstructing part of the view and occupying part of the usable activity space when it is open, bringing great convenience to the user and improving the user experience. At the same time, when the sliding door is housed within the receiving space, the opening is covered by a cover plate, thus hiding the sliding door and making it less prone to getting dirty, while also improving the overall cleanliness and aesthetics of the visual space.

[0034] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 8 The sliding door assembly provided in the embodiments of this application will now be described. The sliding door assembly includes: a first fixing body 10, a second fixing body 20, a fixed partition 40, a movable door body 50, a hinge 60, and a cover 70.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2A receiving space 30 is formed between the first fixed body 10 and the second fixed body 20 along the first horizontal direction X. The receiving space 30 has an opening 31 on one side along the second horizontal direction Y, which is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction X. A fixed partition 40 is disposed within the receiving space 30 along the first horizontal direction X. A movable door 50 is disposed between the first fixed body 10 and the fixed partition 40 along the first horizontal direction X and can slide along the second horizontal direction Y, so that the movable door 50 can be received into the receiving space 30 through the opening 31 or exit the receiving space through the opening 31. 30; The cover 70 is movably connected to the fixed partition 40 on the side away from the movable door 50 via the hinge 60, so that the cover 70 can switch between a first position and a second position relative to the fixed partition 40; When the cover 70 is in the first position, a portion of the cover 70 along the second horizontal direction Y is housed in the receiving space 30 and folded along the first horizontal direction X with the fixed partition 40, and the other portion of the cover 70 along the second horizontal direction Y extends out of the receiving space 30 from the opening 31; When the cover 70 is in the second position, the cover 70 blocks the opening 31 along the first horizontal direction X.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the sliding door assembly provided in this application, when the movable door 50 needs to be opened, switches the cover 70 from the second position to the first position, so that a portion of the cover 70 along the second horizontal direction Y is housed in the receiving space 30, and folds along the first horizontal direction X with the fixed partition 40. The other portion of the cover 70 along the second horizontal direction Y extends out of the receiving space 30 from the opening 31, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 At this time, with opening 31 in the open state, the movable door 50 is pulled along the second horizontal direction Y, causing the movable door 50 to gradually exit from opening 31 into receiving space 30; when it is necessary to close the movable door 50, the movable door 50 is pushed along the opposite direction of the second horizontal direction Y, causing the movable door 50 to gradually be received into receiving space 30 from opening 31; when the movable door 50 is completely received into receiving space 30, the cover 70 is switched from the first position to the second position, so that the cover 70 blocks opening 31 along the first horizontal direction X, as... Figure 6 and Figure 7 When the sliding door assembly of this application opens the sliding door 50, by housing the sliding door 50 within the receiving space 30, it effectively avoids the sliding door 50 from obstructing part of the view or occupying part of the usable space when it is open, bringing great convenience to the user and improving the user experience. At the same time, when the sliding door 50 is housed within the receiving space 30, the opening 31 is covered by the cover plate 70, thus hiding the sliding door 50, making it less prone to getting dirty, and also improving the cleanliness and aesthetics of the overall visual space.

[0037] Please see Figure 8The hinge 60 includes a hinge cup 61, a base 62, and a connecting member 63. The hinge cup 61 is installed on the side of the fixed partition 40 away from the movable door body 50. The hinge cup 61 has a groove 611. The base 62 is installed on the cover plate 70. One end of the connecting member 63 is hinged to the end of the groove 611 near the opening 31, and the other end of the connecting member 63 is hinged to the base 62.

[0038] Specifically, the hinge cup 61 is positioned near the opening 31. The base 62 is installed on the side of the cover 70 facing the fixed partition 40 when the cover 70 is in the first position, and is positioned away from the movable door body 50 when the cover 70 is in the second position. By hinged one end of the connecting member 63 to the end of the groove 611 near the opening 31, the connecting member 63 can rotate relative to the hinge cup 61. By hinged the other end of the connecting member 63 to the base 62, the connecting member 63 can rotate relative to the base 62. Thus, when the cover 70 rotates relative to the fixed partition 40, it causes the base 62 to rotate relative to the connecting member 63 and the hinge cup 61, thereby allowing the cover 70 to switch between the first and second positions relative to the fixed partition 40.

[0039] The hinge cup 61 is installed on the side of the fixed partition 40 away from the movable door body 50, and the base 62 is installed on the cover 70. The two ends of the connecting piece 63 are hinged to the hinge cup 61 and the base 62 respectively, which can provide a larger rotation space for the cover 70, so that the cover 70 can rotate and fold into the receiving space 30 during use. Figure 4 and Figure 5 .

[0040] Optionally, the rotation angle of the base 62 relative to the hinge cup 61 is greater than or equal to 90°, and the rotation angle of the cover 70 when switching between the first position and the second position is 90°. That is, when the cover 70 in the first position is rotated 90° relative to the fixed partition 40, the cover 70 is switched to the second position. Alternatively, when the cover 70 in the second position is rotated 90° in the opposite direction relative to the fixed partition 40, the cover 70 is switched to the first position.

[0041] When the cover plate 70 is in the first position, the base 62 and the hinge cup 61 are stacked together or substantially stacked together, so that at least a portion of the cover plate 70 can be accommodated in the receiving space 30 and folded along the first horizontal direction X with the fixed partition 40.

[0042] Optionally, the coupling 63 is generally L-shaped.

[0043] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 8The groove 611 has a first hinge hole 612 on each side of the end near the opening 31. The connector 63 has a second hinge hole at one end. The end of the connector 63 with the second hinge hole extends into the end of the groove 611 near the opening 31. The second hinge hole is connected to the first hinge hole 612. The hinge shaft passes through the first hinge hole 612 and the second hinge hole, so that one end of the connector 63 is hinged to one end of the groove 611.

[0044] One end of the base 62 is provided with a clearance groove 621 and a third hinge hole 622 communicating with the clearance groove 621. The other end of the connecting member 63 is provided with a fourth hinge hole. The other end of the connecting member 63 extends into the clearance groove 621, and the fourth hinge hole communicates with the third hinge hole 622. The hinge shaft passes through the third hinge hole 622 and the fourth hinge hole, so that the other end of the connecting member 63 is hinged to one end of the base 62. It can be understood that the hinge 60 in this embodiment is an open hinge 60, so that the cover plate 70 can rotate in and out of the receiving space 30.

[0045] In other embodiments, the sliding door assembly may also include a guide rail and a slider. The guide rail is installed on the side of the fixed partition 40 opposite to the movable door body 50 and extends along the second horizontal direction Y. The slider is slidably connected to the guide rail along the second horizontal direction Y. The hinge 60 includes a first hinge member and a second hinge member. The first hinge member is installed on the slider, and the second hinge member is installed on the cover plate 70. The second hinge member is hinged to the first connecting member. When it is necessary to switch the cover plate 70 from the first position to the second position, the cover plate 70 in the first position is pulled along the second horizontal direction Y, causing it to slide along the guide rail along the second horizontal direction Y. When the cover plate 70 moves to the opening 31 position, the cover plate 70 is rotated, causing the second hinge member to rotate relative to the first hinge member, so that the cover plate 70 rotates to the second position to cover the opening 31. When it is necessary to switch the cover plate 70 from the second position to the first position, rotate the cover plate 70 in the opposite direction, causing the second hinge to rotate in the opposite direction relative to the first hinge. When the cover plate 70 is rotated to a state parallel to the fixed partition plate 40, push the cover plate 70 in a direction opposite to the second horizontal direction Y, causing it to slide on the guide rail in a direction opposite to the second horizontal direction Y, so as to move the cover plate 70 to the first position.

[0046] In one embodiment of this application, there are multiple hinges 60, which are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the fixed partition 40 and the cover plate 70. By providing multiple hinges 60, the cover plate 70 is movably connected to the fixed partition 40 in the vertical direction through the multiple hinges 60, which effectively improves the stability of the connection between the cover plate 70 and the fixed partition 40.

[0047] Specifically, the hinge cups 61 of the multiple hinges 60 are mounted at intervals along the vertical direction on the fixed partition 40, and the bases 62 of the multiple hinges 60 are mounted at intervals along the vertical direction on the cover plate 70.

[0048] Optionally, the number of hinges 60 is three, and the three hinges 60 are spaced apart along the vertical direction of the fixed partition 40 and the cover plate 70.

[0049] A mounting body 80 is provided along the second horizontal direction Y, spaced apart from the first fixing body 10 and the second fixing body 20. The sliding door assembly also includes a door frame, one side of which is connected to the mounting body 80 along the second horizontal direction Y, and the other side of which extends into the receiving space 30. The top of the sliding door 50 is slidably connected to the top of the door frame along the second horizontal direction Y via a slide rail assembly. This way, the slide rail assembly does not occupy floor space, making the floor easier to clean. Alternatively, the bottom of the sliding door 50 can also be slidably connected to the bottom of the door frame along the second horizontal direction Y via the slide rail assembly. Or, both the top and bottom of the sliding door 50 can be slidably connected to the top of the door frame along the second horizontal direction Y via the slide rail assembly.

[0050] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 1 There are two movable door bodies 50, and the two movable door bodies 50 are arranged parallel to each other along the first horizontal direction X.

[0051] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 1 The first fixing body 10 and the second fixing body 20 are spaced apart along the first horizontal direction X, and the fixing partition 40 is also spaced apart from the first fixing body 10 and the second fixing body 20 along the first horizontal direction X.

[0052] Optionally, both the first fixing body 10 and the second fixing body 20 are cabinets.

[0053] It should be noted that when the cover 70 is in the first position, since another part of the cover 70 is housed within the receiving space 30 and folded with the fixed partition 40, it will not interfere with the use of the surrounding cabinets. When the cover 70 is in the second position, the width of the cover 70 along the first horizontal direction X is equal to the width of the opening 31 along the first horizontal direction X, so that the use of the surrounding cabinets will not be interfered with when the cover 70 is in the second position.

[0054] Optionally, when the cover 70 is in the second position, the outer surface of the cover 70 is flush with the outer surface of the surrounding cabinet, which can perfectly integrate with the surrounding cabinet and help improve the cleanliness and aesthetics of the overall visual space.

[0055] It should be noted that the color and style of the outer surface of the cover 70 can be set according to the surrounding cabinets to match the style of the surrounding cabinets, so that when the cover 70 is in the second position, the appearance will be integrated with the surrounding cabinets, making it more neat and beautiful.

[0056] Of course, in other embodiments, the second fixing body 20 and the second fixing body 20 can also be a wall.

[0057] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 1 The sliding door assembly also includes a third fixing body 90, which is located within the receiving space 30 and away from the opening 31, and is connected to the side of the fixed partition 40 opposite to the moving door body 50. Understandably, the third fixing body 90, the fixed partition 40, and the second fixing body 20 cooperate to form a space for separately storing the cover 70. Furthermore, the connection of the third fixing body 90 to the fixed partition 40 helps improve the stability of the fixed partition 40 within the receiving space 30.

[0058] Optionally, the third fixed body 90 is a cabinet.

[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, the third fixing body 90 can also be a wall.

[0060] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
