Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of kitchenware, and in particular to a sterilizer for cutting boards and knives. Background Technology

[0002] A cutting board, also known as a chopping board, is a flat tool used to support food during cooking; a knife is a tool used to cut, peel, or carve food. There are many types of kitchen knives, including chef's knives, slicing knives, bread knives, and peelers.

[0003] A disinfection cabinet is a device that uses ultraviolet light, far-infrared rays, ozone, or other methods to sterilize and disinfect items such as cutting boards and knives.

[0004] Currently, among related technologies, Chinese Patent No. CN211096241U discloses a special disinfection cabinet for cutting boards and knives. It includes a cabinet body and a door. A rotary motor is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the cabinet body, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. The bottom of the rotating shaft passes through the top of the cabinet body and extends into the interior of the cabinet body. This special disinfection cabinet for cutting boards and knives, through the coordinated use of a cutting board storage mechanism, a cutting board storage frame, a first opening, a first connecting cavity, a cutting board storage cavity, a knife storage mechanism, a second connecting cavity, and a knife storage frame, makes the installation and positioning of knives and cutting boards very convenient, facilitating their storage. Furthermore, the vertical installation of knives and cutting boards increases the disinfection area. The design of the first opening, the first connecting cavity, and the second connecting cavity further enhances the disinfection area, contributing to improved disinfection effectiveness.

[0005] However, the aforementioned disinfection cabinet does not have a drying system. Therefore, if the cutting board and knives are placed in the disinfection cabinet for disinfection, bacteria can easily grow on the surface of the cutting board and knives if they are not dried in time, especially the cutting board itself, since the cutting board and knives are moist. Furthermore, the cutting board will decompose faster if it is kept in a damp state for a long time, and it is also easy to cause the cutting board to crack and deform. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to improve the problems existing in the above-mentioned technology, this application provides a cutting board and knife sterilizer.

[0007] This application provides a cutting board and knife sterilizer, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A cutting board and knife sterilizer includes: a cabinet body, an ultraviolet germicidal lamp fixedly installed inside the cabinet body, a first shelf and a second shelf fixedly installed inside the cabinet body, a knife rack fixedly installed inside the cabinet body, a cutting board rack fixedly installed on the second shelf, and a drying component installed on the top of the cabinet body.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the drying component can quickly dry knives and cutting boards, so that moisture does not remain on the knives and cutting boards for a long time, making it less likely for bacteria to grow on the knives and cutting boards and less likely for them to be damaged.

[0010] Optionally, the drying assembly includes: a mesh plate, a fan, and a heating tube. The mesh plate is disposed inside the cabinet, and an air inlet cavity is formed between the mesh plate and the cabinet. The fan and the heating tube are installed in the air inlet cavity. An air inlet hole is provided through the top of the cabinet, and an air outlet hole is provided through the bottom of the cabinet. Ventilation holes are provided through the first shelf and the second shelf.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the fan and heating pipe are started, and external air is drawn into the air inlet cavity through the air inlet hole and heated; the heated air will pass through the first layer plate and the second layer plate, thereby transferring heat to the knife and the cutting board to dry the knife and the cutting board.

One end of the mesh cover is disposed inside the serpentine tube, and the other end is disposed inside the clearance groove. The honeycomb activated carbon is disposed inside the mesh cover. The rubber stopper is disposed inside the mesh cover, and the pull post is fixed to the rubber stopper.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, honeycomb activated carbon can purify the air, making it less likely for the air to carry dust onto knives and cutting boards.

[0018] Optionally, an installation assembly is provided between the cabinet and the mesh panel. The installation assembly includes an installation rod, an installation spring, and an installation rope. The inner wall of the cabinet has an installation hole, and the mesh panel has a placement hole. One end of the installation rod is placed in the installation hole, and the other end is placed in the placement hole. The installation spring is fixed between the bottom of the placement hole and the installation rod.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting rod is first pressed into the mounting hole, and then the mesh panel is placed into the cabinet; until the mounting hole and the mounting hole are coaxial, the mounting spring will push the mounting rod into the mounting hole, thereby completing the installation of the mesh panel.

[0020] Optionally, a connecting component is provided between the mesh plate and the air outlet hopper. The connecting component includes a magnetic block one and a magnetic block two. The magnetic block one is fixed to the air outlet hopper. An annular groove is provided on the mesh plate, and the magnetic block two is fixed in the annular groove. The magnetic block one is disposed in the annular groove and is magnetically attracted to the magnetic block two.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, after the screen is removed, the air outlet can be directly removed from the screen, which makes it easier to clean the screen, air inlet, serpentine tube and air outlet.

[0022] Optionally, the cutting board rack includes a support plate and several limiting frames. The support plate is fixed to the second layer plate. An adjustment assembly is provided between the limiting frames and the support plate. The adjustment assembly includes a slider and a bolt. The support plate has a sliding groove, and the inner wall of the sliding groove has a through groove. The slider is slidably disposed in the sliding groove, and the limiting frames are fixed to the slider. The bolt passes through the through groove and is threadedly engaged with the slider.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the distance between adjacent limiting frames can be adjusted according to the thickness of the cutting board; after adjustment, the slider is locked with bolts, thereby improving applicability.

[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. The drying unit can quickly dry knives and cutting boards, so that moisture does not remain on the knives and cutting boards for a long time, thus preventing bacteria from growing and damage.

[0026] 2. Air can be introduced into the serpentine tube through the air inlet hopper and then blown out through the air outlet hopper; the serpentine tube can delay the residence time of air in the air inlet chamber, thereby better heating the air and improving the drying effect.

[0027] 3. The spacing between adjacent limit frames can be adjusted according to the thickness of the cutting board; after adjustment, the slider can be locked with bolts to improve applicability. Attached Figure Description

A knife rack 14 is fixedly mounted on the inner side wall of the cabinet body 1 for storing knives; the knife rack 14 is located above the first shelf 11, which is used to prevent knives from falling downwards. A cutting board rack 15 is fixedly mounted on the top wall of the second shelf 12 for storing cutting boards.

[0040] See Figure 2 The inner side wall of the cabinet 1 is fixedly equipped with an ultraviolet germicidal lamp 13. In this embodiment of the application, there are three ultraviolet germicidal lamps 13, which correspond one-to-one with the first layer 11 and the second layer 12. The ultraviolet germicidal lamps 13 are used to kill bacteria on knives and cutting boards.

[0041] See Figure 2 The top of the cabinet 1 is equipped with a drying component 2, which can quickly dry the knives and cutting boards, so that the knives and cutting boards are less likely to have moisture remaining for a long time, thus making it less likely for bacteria to grow and for the knives and cutting boards to be damaged.

[0042] See Figure 2 The drying assembly 2 includes a wire mesh 21, a fan 22, and a heating element 23. The wire mesh 21 is installed inside the cabinet 1, above the knife rack 14, and forms an air inlet chamber 213 between the wire mesh and the cabinet 1. The fan 22 is installed on the inner top wall of the cabinet 1. The fan 22 and the heating element 23 are installed in the air inlet chamber 213, with the fan 22 located above the heating element 23. An air inlet hole 16 is provided through the inner top wall of the cabinet 1, and an air outlet hole 17 is provided through the inner bottom wall of the cabinet 1. Ventilation holes 121 are provided through the first shelf 11 and the second shelf 12. After storing the knives and cutting boards, the fan 22 and the heating element 23 are started, and external air is drawn into the air inlet chamber 213 through the air inlet hole 16 and heated. The heated air passes through the first shelf 11 and the second shelf 12, thereby transferring heat to the knives and cutting boards to dry them.

[0043] The working principle of Example 1 is as follows: the fan 22 and the heating tube 23 are started, and the outside air is drawn into the air inlet chamber 213 through the air inlet hole 16 and heated; the heated air will pass through the first plate 11 and the second plate 12, thereby transferring heat to the knife and the cutting board to dry the knife and the cutting board.

[0044] Example 2:

[0045] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the cutting board rack 15 includes a support plate 151 and several limiting frames 152. The support plate 151 is fixed to the top wall of the second layer plate 12. An adjustment assembly 6 is provided between the limiting frames 152 and the support plate 151.

[0046] See Figure 5 The adjusting component 6 includes a slider 61 and bolts 62. A support plate 151 has grooves 1511 on its top walls at both ends along its width and along its length. The slider 61 is slidably disposed within the grooves 1511 and slides along the length of the grooves 1511. Each limiting bracket 152 corresponds to one slider 61 within each groove 1511. A through groove 1512 is formed on the side wall of the support plate 151 along its length, and the through groove 1512 communicates with the groove 1511. Bolts 62 correspond one-to-one with the sliders 61, passing through the through grooves 1512 and threadedly engaging with the sliders 61. During use, the distance between adjacent limiting brackets 152 can be adjusted according to the thickness of the cutting board. After adjustment, the bolts 62 are used to lock the sliders 61, thereby improving applicability.

The serpentine tube 32 can delay the residence time of air in the air inlet chamber 213, thereby better heating the air and improving the drying effect.

[0048] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 Furthermore, the transition component 3 also includes: a flow-retarding plate 34, which is provided in several parts. The flow-retarding plate 34 is fixedly disposed inside the serpentine tube 32, and the flow-retarding plate 34 can form a serpentine channel again inside the serpentine tube 32, thereby further slowing down the airflow speed and further improving the heating effect.

[0049] See Figure 6 and Figure 7Furthermore, an installation assembly 4 is provided between the cabinet 1 and the mesh panel 21. The installation assembly 4 includes an installation rod 41, an installation spring 42, and an installation rope 43. An installation hole 18 is provided on the inner side wall of the cabinet 1, and a placement hole 211 is provided on the side wall of the mesh panel 21. One end of the installation rod 41 is located in the installation hole 18, and the other end is located in the placement hole 211. The installation rod 41 can lock the mesh panel 21, thereby completing the installation of the mesh panel 21. The installation spring 42 is fixed between the bottom of the placement hole 211 and the installation rod 41. The installation spring 42 is used to push the installation rod 41 into the installation hole 18. During installation, the installation rod 41 is first pressed into the placement hole 211, and then the mesh panel 21 is placed into the cabinet 1. Until the installation hole 18 and the placement hole 211 are coaxial, the installation spring 42 will push the installation rod 41 into the installation hole 18, thereby completing the installation of the mesh panel 21.

[0050] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 One end of the installation rope 43 is fixed to the end of the installation rod 41 near the installation spring 42, and the other end passes through the mesh plate 21. When disassembling, pull the installation rope 43 to pull the installation rod 41 back into the placement hole 211, thereby releasing the lock on the mesh plate 21 so that the mesh plate 21 can be taken out for cleaning.

[0051] See Figure 6 and Figure 7 Furthermore, a connecting component 5 is provided between the mesh plate 21 and the air outlet 33. The connecting component 5 includes a first magnetic block 51 and a second magnetic block 52. The top wall of the mesh plate 21 has an annular groove 212, and the second magnetic block 52 is fixed in the annular groove 212. The first magnetic block 51 is fixed on the bottom wall of the air outlet 33, and the first magnetic block 51 is set in the annular groove 212 and magnetically attracted to the second magnetic block 52. After the mesh plate 21 is removed, the air outlet 33 can be directly removed from the mesh plate 21, which makes it easier to clean the mesh plate 21, the air inlet 31, the serpentine tube 32, and the air outlet 33.

[0052] See Figure 8 Furthermore, the transition component 3 also includes: a mesh cover 35, honeycomb activated carbon 36, a rubber stopper 37, and a pull post 38. The top wall of the serpentine tube 32 near the air inlet duct 31 extends through a relief groove 321. One end of the mesh cover 35 is disposed within the serpentine tube 32, and the other end is disposed within the relief groove 321, with the top of the mesh cover 35 being open. The honeycomb activated carbon 36 is disposed within the mesh cover 35, and the honeycomb activated carbon 36 can purify the air, thus preventing the air from carrying dust to the knives and cutting boards.

[0053] See Figure 8A rubber stopper 37 is disposed inside the mesh cover 35 to prevent the honeycomb activated carbon 36 from falling out of the mesh cover 35. A pull post 38 is fixed to the rubber stopper 37, which facilitates the removal of the rubber stopper 37 from the mesh cover 35, thereby facilitating the replacement of the honeycomb activated carbon 36.

[0054] The working principle of Example 2 is as follows: During drying, air can be introduced into the serpentine tube 32 through the air inlet 31 and then blown out through the air outlet 33; the serpentine tube 32 can delay the residence time of air in the air inlet chamber 213, thereby better heating the air and improving the drying effect.
