[0027] The embodiment of the utility model provides a safe switch structure of heat preservation drawer, as shown in the figure, comprising: Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, comprising:
[0028] Cabinet 100, one end of cabinet 100 is open;
[0029] Drawer assembly 200, drawer assembly 200 includes the box 210 slidably arranged in cabinet 100, and the box 210 can be slid to open state or closed state;
[0030] Switch assembly 300, switch assembly 300 has trigger state and power-off state, and switch assembly 300 includes microswitch 310 arranged at the bottom of box 210 and trigger top block 320 arranged at cabinet 100, when box 210 is in closed state, trigger top block 320 lifts the spring of microswitch 310, to make switch assembly 300 be in trigger state;When box 210 is in open state, trigger top block 320 is separated from the spring of microswitch 310, to make switch assembly 300 be in power-off state.
[0031] Cabinet 100 one end opening, for accommodating drawer assembly 200.Drawer assembly 200 includes a box 210 slidably arranged in cabinet 100.Box 210 is used to store articles.Switch assembly 300 is used to control the state of drawer.It has two states:
[0032] Trigger state: when the drawer is in closed state, microswitch 310 is triggered, and the heat preservation drawer is powered on.
[0033] Power-off state: when the drawer is in open state, microswitch 310 is separated from trigger top block 320.
[0034] The micro switch 310 is installed at the bottom of the box 210, and the state switching is realized by the contact between the spring and the trigger top block 320. The trigger top block 320 is installed on the cabinet 100 and is used for triggering the micro switch 310. The micro switch 310 is arranged at the bottom of the box 210, so that the influence of the micro switch 310 on the self-locking stroke of the guide rail is reduced. The switch control is realized by the mechanical structure, and the safety hidden danger caused by the non-closed drawer is avoided. The switch assembly 300 of the mechanical structure has high reliability. The combination of the micro switch 310 and the trigger top block 320 is simple in design and easy to realize.
[0035] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0036] When the drawer is pushed back, the micro switch 310 at the bottom of the box 210 contacts the trigger top block 320 on the cabinet 100, the trigger top block 320 lifts the spring of the micro switch 310, and the switch assembly 300 is in the triggered state.
[0037] When the drawer is pulled out, the micro switch 310 leaves the trigger top block 320, the spring returns to the original position, and the switch assembly 300 is in the power-off state.
[0038] In some embodiments, one end of the box 210 extending into the cabinet 100 is provided with a containing cavity, the micro switch 310 is arranged in the containing cavity, and the side wall of the containing cavity is provided with an avoidance structure 220 for avoiding the micro switch 310 and the trigger top block 320.
[0039] The avoidance structure 220 is used for ensuring that the trigger top block 320 located on the cabinet 100 can contact the micro switch 310 located in the containing cavity of the box 210, and ensuring that the switch can work normally.
[0040] Further, the avoidance structure 220 is an avoidance groove.
[0041] In some embodiments, the avoidance groove includes a first avoidance groove 230 arranged at the bottom of the drawer assembly 200.
[0042] The first avoidance groove 230 is arranged at the bottom of the drawer assembly 200 (i.e. the box 210) and is located near the mounting position of the micro switch 310. When the drawer assembly 200 slides in the cabinet 100, the first avoidance groove 230 ensures that the trigger top block 320 can smoothly lift the spring of the micro switch 310.
[0043] In some embodiments, the avoidance groove further includes a second avoidance groove 240 for the trigger top block 320 to pass through, and the first avoidance groove 230 is connected with the second avoidance groove 240.
[0044] The second avoidance slot 240 is arranged on the cabinet 100 and connected with the first avoidance slot 230. It is located inside the cabinet 100 and corresponds to the sliding path of the drawer assembly 200. The main function of the second avoidance slot 240 is to provide a path for the trigger top block 320 to pass through. When the drawer assembly 200 slides in the cabinet 100, the trigger top block 320 enters the first avoidance slot 230 through the second avoidance slot 240, thereby realizing the contact or separation with the spring of the micro switch 310.
[0045] When the drawer assembly 200 is pushed back, the trigger top block 320 enters the first avoidance slot 230 along the second avoidance slot 240 and lifts the spring of the micro switch 310, so that the switch assembly 300 is in the triggered state. When the drawer assembly 200 is pulled out, the trigger top block 320 exits the first avoidance slot 230 along the second avoidance slot 240, and the spring returns to its original position, so that the switch assembly 300 is in the power-off state.
[0046] In some embodiments, a sealing strip or dust cover can be added at the opening of the avoidance slot to prevent dust or liquid from entering and affecting the performance and insulation effect of the switch assembly 300.
[0047] In some embodiments, the box body 210 is provided with a fixing plate 250 for fixing the micro switch 310.
[0048] The fixing plate 250 provides a stable mounting platform for the micro switch 310, so that it can accurately cooperate with the trigger top block 320 and ensure that the micro switch 310 will not be displaced or loose due to vibration or impact during the sliding process of the drawer assembly 200. The fixing plate 250 can be fixed on the bottom of the box body 210 by screws, buckles or welding, etc., to ensure its firmness. The fixing plate 250 is usually installed near the avoidance structure 220 at the bottom of the box body 210, to ensure that the spring of the micro switch 310 can smoothly contact the trigger top block 320.
[0049] Further, the bottom of the micro switch 310 is higher than the bottom of the box body 210.
[0050] The fixing plate 250 makes the installation of the micro switch 310 higher than the bottom of the box body 210, which can avoid the spring of the micro switch 310 being jammed by the folded edge of the box body 210 during installation.
[0051] In some embodiments, the fixing plate 250 is vertically arranged on the side wall of the avoidance slot.
[0052] The fixing plate 250 is vertically arranged on the side wall of the avoidance slot, which makes the installation of the micro switch 310 more stable and provides a clear guide for the movement of the spring.
[0053] In some embodiments, the trigger top block 320 includes a fixed part 330, a transverse part 370, and a guide part 340 for guiding the up-and-down movement of the spring of the micro switch 310.
[0054] The fixed part 330 is used to fix the trigger top block 320 on the cabinet body 100, ensuring its stability during the sliding process of the drawer. The fixed part 330 can be installed on the cabinet body 100 by screws, buckles, or other mechanical fixing methods, ensuring the stability of the trigger top block 320. The guide part 340 is used to guide the up-and-down movement of the spring of the micro switch 310, ensuring that the spring can smoothly contact or separate from the trigger top block 320. The design of the guide part 340 is usually a slope, an arc, or other guiding structure, used to guide the up-and-down movement of the spring of the micro switch 310 during the sliding process of the drawer. This design can reduce the friction between the spring and the trigger top block 320, improving the service life of the switch assembly 300.
[0055] Further, the guide part 340 gradually tilts downward along the opening direction of the box body 210.
[0056] The tilt direction of the guide part 340 is consistent with the sliding direction of the drawer. When the drawer is pulled out, the guide part 340 gradually tilts downward, guiding the spring to move downward. When the drawer is pushed back, the spring moves upward along the slope of the guide part 340. This inclined design can reduce the friction between the spring and the guide part 340, while ensuring that the spring is more smooth during contact and separation, avoiding the phenomenon of jamming.
[0057] Further, the guide part 340 includes a first inclined part 350 and a second inclined part 360 connected in series, the second inclined part 360 is connected with the transverse part 370, and the transverse part 370 is connected with the fixed part 330.
[0058] The first inclined part 350 is used to initially guide the spring to move upward. The second inclined part 360 further guides the spring, ensuring a smooth transition to the trigger position. The transverse part 370 is connected with the fixed part 330, used to stabilize the overall structure of the trigger top block 320.
[0059] When the drawer assembly 200 starts to push back, the spring first contacts the first inclined part 350, guiding the spring to start moving upward. The first inclined part 350 has a relatively large inclination angle, which can quickly guide the spring into motion. After the spring is guided by the first inclined part 350, the second inclined part 360 further guides the spring smoothly, ensuring that it reaches the trigger position smoothly. The second inclined part 360 has a relatively small inclination angle, which can reduce the friction and impact of the spring during movement. The transverse part 370 is connected with the fixed part 330, providing stable support, ensuring the overall structural strength of the trigger top block 320. The design of the transverse part 370 can increase the stability of the trigger top block 320, while providing a smooth transition area for the spring.
[0060] Still further, the inclination angle of the first inclined portion 350 is greater than the inclination angle of the second inclined portion 360.
