Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a foot plate connecting structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of production and manufacturing of household appliances, the connection between a ground rod and a foot plate is a common technical link. At present, when the ground rod adopts an up-down molding process and has a structure in which the upper end diameter is smaller than the lower end diameter, a more common connection method is to directly add threads to the lower end of the ground rod for fixation.

[0003] The above-mentioned method of directly adding threads to the lower end of the ground rod for fixation has two main problems. Firstly, a gap is generated between the ground rod and the foot plate, which adversely affects the appearance of the product and does not meet the high requirements of modern consumers for product appearance design. Secondly, in order to meet the molding conditions, the wall thickness of the ground rod needs to be particularly thick. Generally, the length of the ground rod is relatively long, and an excessively thick wall thickness will greatly increase the cost and reduce the production efficiency due to a long molding cycle. For example, if threads are directly added to the lower end of the ground rod, the wall thickness needs to be 4 mm or more, which has great disadvantages in terms of cost and production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, how to solve the problems of the generation of a gap between the ground rod and the foot plate and the increase of cost caused by an excessively thick wall thickness of the ground rod in the prior art is a technical problem that needs to be solved at present. CONTENT OF THE INVENTION

[0005] The present application provides a foot plate connecting structure, which can effectively avoid the generation of a gap between the ground rod and the foot plate, reduce the cost of plastic parts, and improve the overall appearance of the product.

[0008] In a possible implementation, a first limiting groove for limiting the rotation of the ground rod is arranged on the outer circumferential wall of the first end of the connecting component, and a first limiting convex groove for limiting the rotation of the connecting component is arranged on the inner circumferential wall of the first end of the ground rod; when the connecting component is fixedly connected with the ground rod, the first limiting convex groove is embedded in the first limiting groove.

[0009] In a possible implementation, the diameter of the first end of the connecting component is greater than the diameter of the second end of the connecting component, and the height of the second end of the connecting component is the same as the height of the concave circular groove.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the wall thickness of the ground rod is 2 mm.

[0029] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing different structures of the present application. For the purpose of simplicity, the elements and settings of particular examples in the following description will be described with reference to the drawings. Of course, these are merely examples and are intended to be illustrative only. Thus, the application is not intended to be limited to the following examples. Furthermore, the present application can be implemented in a variety of environments and / or settings other than those described in the following examples. In addition, the present application can be implemented in different embodiments in different examples. Such repetition is intended to simplify and clarify the present application and is not intended to indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or settings discussed.

[0031] For the purpose of simplicity, spatial relative terms in the description are used to describe one element's or feature's relative position or movement with respect to another element or feature as illustrated in the figures. The spatial relative terms are, for example, "inner", "outer", "inward", "outward", "lower", "below", "upper", "above", "front", "back", and the like. The spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientations depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over or rotated, or the device is mirrored, the directional indications are reversed. Accordingly, an element described as "below" or "beneath" another element or feature would then be oriented "above" or "over" the other element or feature. Similarly, if the device in the figures is turned over, elements described as "above" or "over" other elements or features would then be oriented "below" or "under" the other elements or features. Thus, the example terms "below" and "over" can encompass both of the orientations in use or operation. The device can be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein interpreted accordingly.

[0032] Figure 1A structural schematic diagram of a foot plate connecting structure provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1. As shown in the figure, the foot plate connecting structure comprises a ground rod 101, a connecting component 102, a bottom plate 103 and a foot plate 104, and the details are as follows: Figure 1

[0033] In an embodiment, the first end of the connecting component 102 is embedded in the interior of the first end of the ground rod 101 and is fixedly connected with the ground rod 101, the second end of the connecting component 102 is connected with the bottom plate 103, and the end face of the first end of the ground rod 101 is closely attached to the surface of the foot plate 104.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 2, the connecting component 102 is provided with a first end and a second end. Figure 2 Figure 2 A structural schematic diagram of a connecting component provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 3.

[0035] In an embodiment, the connecting component 102 is prepared by an up-down mold drawing method, and the diameter of the first end of the connecting component 102 is greater than the diameter of the second end of the connecting component 102.

[0036] Specifically, the outer peripheral wall of the second end of the connecting component 102 is provided with an outer spiral thread, and the outer peripheral wall of the first end of the connecting component 102 is a smooth surface.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 4, the bottom plate 103 is provided with a recessed circular groove. Figure 3 Figure 3 A structural schematic diagram of a bottom plate provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 5.

[0038] In an embodiment, the middle part of the bottom plate 103 is provided with a recessed circular groove, and the inner peripheral wall of the recessed circular groove is provided with a threaded groove.

[0039] Specifically, the outer spiral thread and the threaded groove are a threaded structure matched with each other.

[0040] Specifically, the height of the second end of the connecting component 102 is the same as the height of the recessed circular groove.

[0041] Specifically, the diameter of the second end of the connecting component 102 is smaller than the inner circular groove diameter of the recessed circular groove.

[0042] Specifically, the diameter of the first end of the connecting component 102 is greater than the inner circular groove diameter of the recessed circular groove, and the diameter of the first end of the connecting component 102 is not less than the outer circular groove diameter of the recessed circular groove.

[0043] ​​​Specifically, the second end of the connecting component 102 has the same height as the concave circular groove, and the second end has a smaller diameter than the circular groove diameter of the concave circular groove. After the connecting component 102 is connected to the bottom plate 103, the second end of the connecting component 102 can be completely embedded in the concave circular groove of the bottom plate 103. On the one hand, this design can save space and make the entire structure more compact and reasonable. On the other hand, the concave circular groove can limit and protect the second end of the connecting component 102, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection.

[0044] Specifically, when the second end of the connecting component 102 is connected to the bottom plate 103, the external screw thread on the connecting component 102 is screwed into the threaded groove on the bottom plate 103, and the external screw thread and the threaded groove on the bottom plate 103 are connected by screwing.

[0045] Specifically, during installation, the operator only needs to align the external screw thread on the second end of the connecting component 102 with the threaded groove on the bottom plate 103, and then rotate in the correct direction to easily connect the two. When disassembly, repair, or replacement of components is required, reverse rotation can separate the two, which is simple and convenient, greatly improves the work efficiency during production and repair, and reduces labor costs.

[0046] Specifically, by setting the external screw thread on the second end of the connecting component 102 to cooperate with the threaded groove on the inner circumferential wall of the concave circular groove of the bottom plate 103, the friction and engagement force between the two are increased by screwing. This tight threaded connection structure can effectively prevent the connecting component and the bottom plate 103 from loosening or separating during use, ensuring the stability of the entire foot plate connection structure, ensuring the safety of household appliances during daily use, and reducing the risk of tipping and other safety risks caused by loose connections.

[0047] As shown in Figure 4 , a structural diagram of an embedded rod is provided for the embodiments of the present application. Figure 4

[0048] In an embodiment, the embedded rod 101 is integrally molded, and the first end of the embedded rod 101 has a larger diameter than the second end of the embedded rod 101.

[0049] In an embodiment, the wall thickness of the embedded rod 101 is 2 mm.

[0050] As shown in Figure 5 , an exploded view of an embedded rod and a connecting component is provided for the embodiments of the present application. Figure 5

[0051] ​​In one embodiment, a first limiting groove 1021 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the first end of the connecting member 102 to restrict the left and right rotation of the upright rod 101, and a first limiting protrusion 1011 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the first end of the upright rod 101 to restrict the left and right rotation of the connecting member 102.

[0052] Preferably, the first limiting groove is a semi-circular groove 1021, and the first limiting protrusion 1021 is a cylindrical protrusion.

[0053] Specifically, there are two first limiting grooves 1021, and the first limiting grooves 1021 are distributed on both sides of the outer circumference of the connecting member 102. The first limiting grooves 1021 are distributed not only at the first end of the connecting member 102, but also at the second end of the connecting member 102.

[0054] Specifically, there are two first limiting protrusions 1011, and the first limiting protrusions 1011 are distributed on both sides of the inner circumference of the upright pole 101.

[0055] Specifically, the first limiting groove 1021 is provided in correspondence with the first limiting protrusion 1011.

[0056] Specifically, when the connecting component 102 is fixedly connected to the upright pole 101, the first limiting protrusion 1011 is embedded in the first limiting groove 1021.

[0057] Specifically, the first limiting groove 1021 on the outer peripheral wall of the connecting component 102 and the first limiting protrusion 1011 on the inner peripheral wall of the upright rod 101 cooperate with each other to effectively limit the left and right rotation between the upright rod 101 and the connecting component 102. When the equipment is subjected to external force during use, this limiting structure can prevent relative rotation between the upright rod 101 and the connecting component 102, ensuring the stability of the entire connection structure. Moreover, during the assembly process, the operator only needs to align the first limiting protrusion 1011 with the first limiting groove 1021 to easily complete the initial positioning of the two and then fix them together. This design reduces the difficulty and time of assembly and improves assembly efficiency.

[0058] In one embodiment, the foot plate connection structure provided in this application further includes: screws 105.

[0059] like Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the screw mounting hole structure of the connecting component provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0060] In an embodiment, a screw mounting hole 1022 is arranged on the first limiting recess 1021, and a screw mounting groove is arranged on the first limiting convex groove 1011, and the screw 105 is fixed in the screw mounting groove through the screw mounting hole 1022.

[0061] Specifically, the screw mounting hole 1022 is arranged on the first limiting recess 1021 of the outer peripheral wall of the connecting component 102, and the screw mounting groove corresponding to the screw mounting hole 1022 is arranged on the first limiting convex groove 1011 of the inner peripheral wall of the foundation rod 101. When assembling, the screw 105 is fixed in the screw mounting groove of the first limiting convex groove 1011 through the screw mounting hole 1022 of the first limiting recess 1021, so that the connecting component 102 and the foundation rod 101 are tightly connected together.

[0062] Specifically, although the cooperation of the first limiting recess 1021 and the first limiting convex groove 1011 has limited the relative rotation between the connecting component 102 and the foundation rod 101 to a certain extent, only relying on the mechanical cooperation may be loose in long-term use or under the action of a large external force. The use of the screw 105 further strengthens the connection between the two, and the connection between the connecting component 102 and the foundation rod 101 is more closely connected through the fastening force of the screw, which effectively prevents the relative rotation of them in the circumferential direction, and can also resist a certain degree of axial tension and pressure, greatly improving the stability and reliability of the entire foot plate connecting structure.

[0063] In an embodiment, the height of the foot plate 104 is the same as the height of the bottom plate, and the foot plate 104 is connected to the outer circumferential surface of the concave circular groove on the bottom plate 103.

[0064] In an embodiment, since the first end of the connecting component 102 is embedded in the first end of the foundation rod 101, that is, the foundation rod 101 is located outside the first end of the connecting component 102, when the second end of the connecting component 102 is connected to the bottom plate 103, the first end of the connecting component 102 is located above the concave circular groove of the bottom plate 103, and since the diameter of the first end of the connecting component 102 is not less than the diameter of the outer circular groove of the concave circular groove, that is, the first end of the connecting component 102 can cover the concave circular groove, therefore, the foundation rod 101 located outside the first end of the connecting component 102 can be closely attached to the surface of the foot plate 104, which can reduce the gap between the foot plate 104 and the bottom plate 103 and improve the overall appearance of the product.

[0065] In an embodiment, the foot plate connecting structure provided by the embodiment of the application further comprises a weight block 106.

[0066] As shown in Figure 7 , the weight block 106 is arranged on the second end of the connecting component 102. Figure 7Another structural diagram of a foot plate connecting structure provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure. Figure 8 Figure 8 A cross-sectional structural diagram of a weight block provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown in the figure.

[0067] In an embodiment, the weight block 106 is arranged below the foot plate.

[0068] Specifically, the weight block 106 is arranged below the foot plate, which increases the weight of the bottom and lowers the center of gravity of the whole structure, making the structure more stable and reducing the instability caused by external force or vibration, so as to ensure the stability of the equipment during use and improve the safety of use.

[0069] In an embodiment, the foot plate 104 is provided with a buckle 1041, and the foot plate 104 is fixedly connected with the weight block 106 through the buckle 1041.

[0070] Specifically, the foot plate 104 is connected with the weight block 106 through the buckle 1041, so that the two are tightly combined and the whole foot plate connecting structure is more compact.

[0071] In an embodiment, the weight block 106 is provided with a first support component 1061 and a second support component 1062, and a gap space is arranged between the first support component 1061 and the second support component 1062.

[0072] In an embodiment, the foot plate connecting structure provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes a weight block lock 1063.

[0073] Specifically, the weight block lock 1063 is fixedly connected with the bottom plate 103 through the gap space.

[0074] Preferably, the weight block lock 1063 includes, but is not limited to, a fixed screw.

[0075] Specifically, the weight block lock 1063 is fixedly connected with the bottom plate 103 through the gap space, and the gap space provides space for the installation of the weight block lock 1063, avoiding the inconvenience of direct connection between the weight block 106 and the bottom plate 103; and the weight block lock 1063 can be installed and adjusted in the gap space, so that the connection between the weight block 106 and the bottom plate 103 is more compact and can better resist various external forces.
