Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen storage furniture technology, specifically to a linkage structure between a cabinet trash can and the door panel. Background Technology
[0002] For convenience, kitchen trash cans are usually placed exposed next to cabinets. However, this not only affects the cleanliness and aesthetics of the surrounding area but also takes up space in the kitchen. Nowadays, to maintain a clean and beautiful kitchen, people are opting for concealed placement of trash cans. Concealed trash cans are typically placed inside cabinets, which is both hygienic and saves space in the kitchen, enhancing its overall appearance.
[0003] Currently, there are roughly three types of trash cans installed inside kitchen cabinets. The first type connects the trash can directly to the door panel, making it a drawer-style pull-out design. This type has the drawback of taking up space and is limited in its use, usually not suitable for cabinets with sinks. The second type fixes the trash can directly to the bottom panel of the cabinet, and pulls it out from the rails after opening the cabinet door. This type requires manual pulling out of the trash can, increasing the inconvenience for the operator. The third type attaches the trash can directly to the cabinet door, and it is pulled out directly when the door is opened. However, this type has the disadvantage of poor load-bearing capacity. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the technical deficiencies in the background technology, this utility model proposes a linkage structure between a cabinet trash can and a door panel, which solves the aforementioned technical problems and meets practical needs. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0005] A linkage structure between a cabinet trash can and a door panel includes a cabinet body and a trash can body. A fixed base and a movable base are provided between the bottom of the trash can body and the cabinet body. The front of the cabinet body is provided with an outward-opening cabinet door. A transmission mechanism is connected between the cabinet door and the movable base.
[0006] The transmission mechanism includes a first transmission rod, a second transmission rod, and a snap-fit base disposed at the bottom of the movable base. One end of the first transmission rod is fixed to the cabinet door, and the other end is hinged to one end of the second transmission rod. The other end of the second transmission rod is hinged to the snap-fit base.
[0007] The movable base has a snap-fit groove for engaging with the snap-fit base, and the snap-fit base engages with the snap-fit groove to form a movable chamber that connects to the end of the second transmission rod.
[0008] As an improvement to the above solution, the bottom of the snap-fit groove is provided with a strip groove, one end of the strip groove is provided with a circular groove, and the bottom of the snap-fit groove is provided with a snap-fit opening corresponding to the other end of the strip groove for snapping with the snap-fit base.
[0009] As an improvement to the above solution, the bottom of the snap-fit base is provided with a movable chamber that matches the shape of the end of the second transmission rod. The movable chamber is circular. One end of the snap-fit base is provided with an integrally formed snap block, and the other end of the snap-fit base is provided with an elastic part that is bent in a U-shape.
[0010] As an improvement to the above solution, the end of the second transmission rod that is hinged to the snap-fit base is provided with a frustum portion that extends vertically upward and has a T-shaped cross section, and the end of the second transmission rod that is connected to the first transmission rod is provided with a connecting portion that extends vertically downward.
[0011] As an improvement to the above solution, the connecting part includes a cylindrical elastic block and an L-shaped locking block. There are four L-shaped locking blocks, which are arranged around the outer edge of the cylindrical elastic block. The L-shaped locking blocks are integrally formed with the second transmission rod and extend vertically downward.
[0012] As an improvement to the above solution, the end of the first transmission rod is provided with a snap-fit hole for engaging with the connecting part, and the other end of the second transmission rod is fixed to the cabinet door by screwing.
[0013] As an improvement to the above solution, the fixed base is fixed to the cabinet body by screws. The end face of the fixed base is provided with a U-shaped groove that runs through the front and back. Guide rails are provided between the two sides of the movable base and the inner walls of the two sides of the U-shaped groove.
[0014] As an improvement to the above solution, the surface of the movable base is provided with several receiving grooves to accommodate the main body of the trash can.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the main body of the trash can is placed on the movable base, and the movable base is connected to the cabinet door through a transmission mechanism. When in use, the cabinet door is opened and the transmission mechanism drives the movable base to slide out of the cabinet door, eliminating the need for manual pulling out of the trash can, which is more convenient. By setting a guide rail between the fixed base and the movable base for sliding and supporting the trash can, it has a higher load-bearing capacity than attaching the trash can to the cabinet door.

[0025] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and related examples. The embodiments of this utility model are not limited to the following examples, and this utility model relates to relevant necessary components in this technical field, which should be regarded as well-known technology in this technical field and can be known and mastered by those skilled in this technical field.
[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a linkage structure between a cabinet trash can and a door panel includes a cabinet body 1 and a trash can body 2. A fixed base 3 and a movable base 4 are provided between the bottom of the trash can body 2 and the cabinet body 1. The front of the cabinet body 1 is provided with an outward-opening cabinet door 11. A transmission mechanism 6 is connected between the cabinet door 11 and the movable base 4.
[0027] In the technical solution of the cabinet body 1 of this utility model, the cabinet body 1 has a hollow structure inside. The side of the cabinet door 11 is hinged to the cabinet body 1. The cabinet body 1 is provided with a fixed base 3, a movable base 4, and a transmission structure connecting the movable base 4 and the cabinet door 11. In use, by opening the cabinet door 11, the transmission structure drives the movable base 4 to slide outward, and the garbage can body 2 is opened and moved out synchronously with the cabinet door 11. There is no need to manually pull out the garbage can after opening the cabinet door 11, which greatly improves the convenience of use.
[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in the technical solution of the fixed base 3 and the movable base 4 of this utility model, the fixed base 3 is fixed to the cabinet body 1 by screwing. The end face of the fixed base 3 is provided with a U-shaped groove 31 that runs through the front and back. The two sides of the movable base 4 are provided with guide rails 41 between the two sides of the U-shaped groove 31 and the inner walls of the two sides of the movable base 4. The surface of the movable base 4 is provided with a plurality of receiving grooves 42 for accommodating the trash can body 2.
[0029] Furthermore, in the above solution, the fixed base 3 is fixed to the bottom of the cabinet body 1 by screws. The U-shaped groove 31 on the fixed base 3 extends in the same direction as the front and back of the cabinet body 1. The side of the movable base 4 is movably connected to the fixed base 3 through a guide cabinet. During use, as the cabinet door 11 is opened and closed, the movable base 4 moves out of or into the cabinet body 1 along the length of the U-shaped groove 31, reducing the space occupied in the kitchen.
[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in the technical solution of the transmission mechanism 6 of this utility model, the transmission mechanism 6 includes a first transmission rod 7, a second transmission rod 8, and a snap-fit base 9 disposed at the bottom of the movable base 4. One end of the first transmission rod 7 is fixed to the cabinet door 11, and the other end is hinged to one end of the second transmission rod 8. The other end of the second transmission rod 8 is hinged to the snap-fit base 9. When the cabinet door 11 is opened, the cabinet door 11 rotates, causing the first transmission rod 7 and the second transmission rod 8 to move outward synchronously. The hinge structure at both ends of the second transmission rod 8 makes the transmission mechanism 6 applicable to hinged cabinet doors 11.
[0031] Furthermore, in the above scheme, the movable base 4 is provided with a snap-fit groove 5 for snapping the snap-fit base 9. The snap-fit base 9 snaps into the snap-fit groove 5 to form a movable chamber 91 connected to the end of the second transmission rod 8. One end of the second transmission rod 8 is provided with a frustum portion 81. The frustum portion 81 is adapted to the shape of the movable chamber 91, thereby realizing the connection between the second transmission rod 8 and the movable base 4.
[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, further, in the above scheme, the bottom of the snap-fit groove 5 is provided with a strip groove 51, one end of the strip groove 51 is provided with a circular groove 52, and the bottom of the snap-fit groove 5 is provided with a slot 53 corresponding to the other end of the strip groove 51 for engaging with the snap-fit base 9. During installation, the frustum portion 81 at the end of the second transmission rod 8 passes through the circular groove 52 from bottom to top and moves horizontally to the end of the strip groove 51. By snapping the end of the snap-fit base 9 into the slot 53, the degree of freedom of the frustum portion 81 to move horizontally is restricted.
[0033] Furthermore, in the above scheme, the bottom of the snap-fit base 9 is provided with a movable chamber 91 that matches the shape of the end of the second transmission rod 8. The movable chamber 91 is circular. One end of the snap-fit base 9 is provided with an integrally formed snap block 92, and the other end of the snap-fit base 9 is provided with a U-shaped elastic part 93. It should be noted that during installation, the snap block 92 at the end of the snap-fit base 9 is snapped into the slot 53, and the elastic part 93 at the other end of the snap-fit base 9 is snapped into the other end of the snap-fit groove 5, thereby forming a movable chamber 91 that restricts the horizontal movement of the frustum 81, thus completing the hinge connection between the movable base 4 and the second transmission rod 8.
[0034] Furthermore, in the above scheme, the end of the second transmission rod 8 that is hinged to the snap-fit base 9 is provided with a vertically upward extending frustum portion 81 with a T-shaped cross section, and the end of the second transmission rod 8 that is connected to the first transmission rod 7 is provided with a vertically downward extending connecting portion 82.
[0035] Furthermore, in the above solution, the connecting part 82 includes a cylindrical elastic block and an L-shaped locking block 822. There are four L-shaped locking blocks 822, which are arranged around the outer edge of the cylindrical elastic block. The L-shaped locking blocks 822 are integrally formed with the second transmission rod 8 and extend vertically downward.
[0036] Furthermore, in the above scheme, the end of the first transmission rod 7 is provided with a snap-fit hole 71 for engaging with the connecting part 82, and the other end of the second transmission rod 8 is fixed to the cabinet door 11 by screwing.
[0037] It should be noted that the second transmission rod 8 is secured by inserting the connecting part 82 from top to bottom into the snap-fit hole 71 at the end of the second transmission rod 8. The connecting part 82 includes a cylindrical elastic block and an L-shaped snap-fit block 822 surrounding the outer edge of the cylindrical elastic block. When the connecting part 82 is inserted from top to bottom into the snap-fit hole 71, the L-shaped snap-fit block 822 squeezes the cylindrical elastic block and is thus inserted into the snap-fit hole 71. After the L-shaped snap-fit block 822 is inserted into the snap-fit hole 71, it quickly returns to its original position under the elastic force of the cylindrical elastic block, thus achieving a tight connection.
[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
