The depth of the second accommodating space is less than the depth of the first accommodating space. The second drawer includes a second panel that is movably connected to the first panel to lock or separate the second panel from the first panel. The first panel is located on the side of the second panel closer to the cabinet body, and the height of the second panel is greater than the height of the first panel to hide the first panel when the second panel is locked to the first panel.
[0008] The drawer assembly according to the embodiments of this application has at least the following beneficial effects: by setting a second drawer movably connected to the first drawer, and the depth of the second accommodating space being less than the depth of the first accommodating space, the bedside table has two drawers of different heights, which is beneficial to meet the need for separate storage of items of different sizes while ensuring space utilization. By setting the second panel of the second drawer to be movably connected to the first panel of the first drawer, the second drawer can be pulled out simultaneously when locked to the first drawer. When the second drawer is separated from the first drawer, the individual opening and closing of a single drawer can be achieved, which is beneficial to the separate storage and retrieval of items of different sizes. At the same time, by setting the first panel to be located on the side of the second panel closer to the cabinet body, and the height of the second panel being greater than the height of the first panel, the first panel is hidden when the first panel and the second panel are locked to each other, so that the second panel and the first drawer are combined into a whole, thereby realizing the hidden design of the second accommodating space, thereby achieving hidden storage of small or valuable items stored in the second drawer, and improving the storage security of small or valuable items.

[0032] This application discloses a drawer assembly that can be applied to a bedside table to store items.
[0033] To facilitate understanding of the structure of the drawer assembly and bedside table, the following description, in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, will provide further details. It should be noted that the following description is merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0034] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a bedside table 1, including a cabinet body 10 and a drawer assembly, the drawer assembly being movably connected to the cabinet body 10. Specifically, the drawer assembly includes a first drawer 20 and a second drawer 30. The first drawer 20 has a first accommodating space and is movably connected to the cabinet body 10 to close or open the first accommodating space. The first drawer 20 includes a first panel 201. The second drawer 30 has a second accommodating space and is movably connected to the first drawer 20 to close or open the second accommodating space. The depth of the second accommodating space is less than the depth of the first accommodating space. The second drawer 30 includes a second panel 301, the second panel 301 being movably connected to the first panel 201 so that the second panel 301 is locked or separated from the first panel 201. The first panel 201 is located on the side of the second panel 301 closer to the cabinet body 10, and the height of the second panel 301 is greater than the height of the first panel 201 so that the first panel 201 is hidden when the second panel 301 is locked with the first panel 201.
[0035] The drawer assembly and bedside table 1 provided in this application embodiment, by setting a second drawer 30 movably connected to a first drawer 20, and the depth of the second accommodating space being less than the depth of the first accommodating space, allows the bedside table 1 to have two drawers of different heights. This facilitates the separate storage of items of different sizes while ensuring space utilization, avoiding wasted space inside the drawers. By setting the second panel 301 of the second drawer 30 movably connected to the first panel 201 of the first drawer 20, the second drawer 30 and the first drawer 20 can be simultaneously pulled out when locked together, and when separated, the second drawer 30 can be pulled out and pulled out simultaneously. It allows for the individual opening and closing of a single drawer, facilitating the separate storage and retrieval of items of different sizes. Simultaneously, by positioning the first panel 201 on the side of the second panel 301 closest to the cabinet 10, and with the second panel 301 being taller than the first panel, the first panel 201 is concealed when locked together with the second panel 301. This allows the second panel 301 and the first drawer 20 to be combined into a single unit, achieving a concealed design for the second storage space. This enables the concealed storage of small or valuable items in the second drawer 30, improving the security of such items.
[0036] Please combine Figures 1 to 4In some embodiments, the drawer assembly further includes a locking assembly 40, which includes a locking part 403 and a pull rod 404. The first panel 201 is provided with a first mounting hole, and the second panel 301 is provided with a second mounting hole. The first mounting hole and the second mounting hole are connected. The first end of the pull rod 404 is movably inserted through the second mounting hole and the first mounting hole. The locking part 403 is provided at the first end of the pull rod 404. The locking part 403 can be inserted into the first mounting hole to engage with the first panel 201, or can be withdrawn from the first mounting hole to separate from the first panel 201.
[0037] In this way, the latching part 403 is snapped into the first panel 201, so that the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 are locked together, thereby realizing the hidden design of the second accommodating space. At this time, the first drawer 20 can be opened and closed by pulling out the second panel 301. When the first drawer 20 is opened and closed, the second drawer 30 can move at the same time, but the second accommodating space will not be exposed. This is conducive to the hidden storage of small or valuable items, improving the security of the bedside table 1 for storing small or valuable items. When the latching part 403 is released from the first panel 201, the latching part 403 can pass through the first mounting hole to separate from the first panel 201. At this time, the second panel 301 can move relative to the first panel 201, that is, the second drawer 30 can be opened and closed independently relative to the first drawer 20, so as to facilitate the retrieval and placement of items in the second accommodating space. In addition, by using the lever 404 to move the second panel 301, a hand grip structure can be provided for the opening and closing of the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30, which facilitates the opening and closing of the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30 and makes it easier to take items out of the bedside table 1.
[0038] Understandably, in other embodiments, the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30 may also be locked by other means, such as by bolts, threaded connections, magnetic adsorption, or adhesive bonding.
[0039] Optionally, one end of the locking part 403 is connected to the circumferential surface of the pull rod 404, and the other end of the locking part 403 extends radially along the pull rod 404. The diameter of the first mounting hole along the first direction is larger than the diameter along the second direction. The second direction is set at an angle to the first direction. The pull rod 404 is rotatable relative to the first mounting hole. When the locking part 403 rotates to the point where its own length direction is parallel to the first direction, the locking part 403 can enter or exit the first mounting hole. When the locking part 403 rotates to the point where its own length direction is parallel to and intersects with the first direction, the locking part 403 is engaged with the first panel 201.
[0040] In this way, by rotating the pull rod 404 to drive the locking part 403 to rotate relative to the first panel 201, the direction of the locking part 403 relative to the first mounting hole is adjusted so that the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 can switch between locked connection and separation, which is conducive to switching the working state of the bedside table 1, making the opening and closing of the second drawer 30 simpler and more convenient, thereby improving the flexibility of use of the bedside table 1.
[0041] Optionally, the diameter of the first mounting hole along the first direction is greater than the sum of the length of the locking part 403 and the diameter of the pull rod 404; the diameter of the first mounting hole along the second direction is less than the sum of the length of the locking part 403 and the diameter of the pull rod 404; and the diameters of the second mounting hole along both the first and second directions are less than the sum of the length of the locking part 403 and the diameter of the pull rod 404. This allows the locking part 403 to enter or exit the first mounting hole when its length direction is parallel to the first direction; and when its length direction is parallel to but intersecting with the first direction (i.e., when its length direction is parallel to the second direction), the locking part 403 can abut against the first panel 201, thereby achieving a latching connection between the locking part 403 and the first panel 201.
[0042] In this way, by rotating the pull rod 404 to drive the locking part 403 to rotate relative to the first panel 201, the direction of the locking part 403 relative to the first mounting hole is adjusted so that the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 can switch between locked connection and separation, which is conducive to switching the working state of the bedside table 1, making the opening and closing of the second drawer 30 simpler and more convenient, thereby improving the flexibility of use of the bedside table 1.
[0043] Understandably, in other embodiments, the latching part 403 may also be telescopic, and the telescopic state of the latching part 403 may be controlled by the pull rod 404 to adjust the length of the latching part 403 so that the latching part 403 is snapped into the first panel 201, or the latching part 403 may be movable in the first mounting hole.
[0044] Optionally, the angle between the first direction and the second direction can be greater than 0° and less than 180°, for example, it can be 90°, 60°, 45°, 30°, 15°, 10°, 5°, 120°, 135° or 150°.
[0045] Optionally, when the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 switch between a locked connection and a separated state, the rotation angle of the latch 403 can be 90°, which helps to improve the stability of the latch 403 relative to the first mounting hole, thereby improving the stability of the locked connection between the first panel 201 and the second panel 301.
[0046] Understandably, in other embodiments, when the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 switch between a locked connection and a separated state, the rotation angle of the latch 403 can also be 60°, 45°, 30°, 15°, 10° or 5°, etc., which can be adjusted according to the size of the first included angle.
[0047] Optionally, there may be two locking parts 403. The two locking parts 403 are spaced apart and symmetrically arranged along the circumferential direction of the pull rod 404 to form two protruding structures on the circumferential surface of the pull rod 404. This helps to reduce the rotation angle between the locking parts 403 and the pull rod 404, facilitates the alignment of the locking parts 403 with the first mounting hole, and improves the stability of the locking parts 403 abutting against the first panel 201, thereby improving the reliability of the locking assembly 40 and the locking connection between the first panel 201.
[0048] Understandably, in other embodiments, the number of latching parts 403 may be one or more. When the number of latching parts 403 is multiple, the first mounting hole is an irregular hole, and the diameter of the first mounting hole in other directions is also greater than the sum of the length of the latching part 403 and the diameter of the pull rod 404, so as to meet the design requirement that the latching part 403 passes through the first panel 201.
[0049] Optionally, the locking part 403 can be any of the following shapes: rectangular, circular, elliptical, trapezoidal, or fan-shaped, depending on actual needs. There are no restrictions here. The shape of the first mounting hole can be adapted to the shape of the locking part 403.
[0050] In some embodiments, the locking assembly 40 further includes a first washer 401 and a second washer 402. The first washer 401 has a first through hole 4011 that matches the first mounting hole (i.e., the shape and size of the first through hole 4011 are consistent with the shape and size of the first mounting hole). The first washer 401 is detachably connected to the side of the first panel 201 near the second panel 301. The first panel 201 has a first mounting groove on the outer periphery of the first mounting hole. The first mounting groove passes through the first panel 201 and communicates with the first through hole 4011 of the first washer 401. The diameter of the first mounting groove is greater than the length of the locking part 403 and less than the outer diameter of the first washer 401. When the locking part 403 rotates to the point where its own length direction intersects with the first direction, the locking part 403 engages with the first washer 401 and is located in the first mounting groove. The second gasket 402 is detachably connected to the side of the second panel 301 near the first panel 201. The second gasket 402 is provided with a second through hole that matches the second mounting hole (i.e., the shape and size of the second through hole are consistent with the shape and size of the second mounting hole).
[0051] This allows the latch 403 to be located in the first mounting groove and abut against the first gasket 401 when the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 are locked together. This improves space utilization, prevents the latch 403 from occupying the first accommodating space, allows the first drawer 20 to have more storage space, and avoids interference between the latch 403 and the items stored in the first drawer 20 when the latch 403 rotates. It also helps to hide the design of the latch 403, making the existence of the second drawer 30 less noticeable, thereby further improving the security of the bedside table 1.
[0052] Optionally, the length of the pull rod 404 can be slightly greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the second panel 301, the first gasket 401, and the second gasket 402, thereby facilitating the rotation of the locking part 403 relative to the first gasket 401, so as to facilitate the switching of the working state of the bedside table 1. For example, when the locking part 403 needs to switch from a state of contact with the first gasket 401 to another state, the locking part 403 can first move away from the second panel 301 under the pushing force of the pull rod 404 to reduce the frictional force of the locking part 403 relative to the first gasket 401. Then, as the pull rod 404 rotates, it rotates relative to the first gasket 401 so that the locking part 403 rotates until its own length direction is parallel to the first direction. At this time, the locking part 403 can move in the first through hole 4011 and the first mounting hole until it moves away from the first gasket 401 and the first panel 201, so as to realize the switching of the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 from a self-locking connection state to a separated state.
[0053] Understandably, in other embodiments, the first mounting groove may not penetrate the first panel 201, the opening of the first mounting groove may face the side away from the second panel 301, or the first gasket 401 may be installed on the side of the first panel 201 away from the second panel 301, or located in the first panel 201, and the length of the pull rod 404 may be greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the first panel 201, the second panel 301, the first gasket 401 and the second gasket 402.
[0054] Optionally, the connection between the first gasket 401 and the first panel 201 can be any one of threaded connection, interference fit connection or welding, and the connection between the second gasket 402 and the second panel 301 can also be any one of threaded connection, interference fit connection or welding. The specific connection can be set according to actual needs, and there are no restrictions here.
[0055] In some embodiments, the locking assembly 40 further includes a rotating handle 405 connected to the end of the pull rod 404 away from the locking portion 403, and the size of the rotating handle 405 is larger than the diameter of the second mounting hole.
[0056] In this way, by setting a rotating handle 405, on the one hand, it is convenient for the hand to hold and rotate the pull rod 404, which is conducive to adjusting the rotation direction of the locking part 403 relative to the first pad 401. On the other hand, the rotating handle 405 can also be used to abut against the second panel 301 to limit the length of the pull rod 404 extending into the first accommodating space. This prevents the connection state between the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 from being unable to be adjusted due to the locking part 403 and the pull rod 404 falling into the first accommodating space. It also prevents the locking part 403 and the pull rod 404 from interfering with the stored items in the first accommodating space due to excessive length extending into the first accommodating space, which could lead to the items shifting or tipping over.
[0057] Optionally, the locking assembly 40 also includes a pull ring 406 connected to the rotary handle 405, which allows the operator to rotate and push / pull the rotary handle 405 by pulling the pull ring 406, thereby improving the convenience of opening and closing the drawer.
[0058] In some embodiments, the drawer assembly further includes a third drawer 50, which is movably connected to the cabinet 10. The third drawer 50 has a third accommodating space, the depth of which is greater than the depth of the second accommodating space.
[0059] In this way, the bedside table 1 has three drawers of different depths, which can be used to store items of different sizes. This helps to meet the need for separate storage of items of different sizes, improves the flexibility of the use of the bedside table 1, and also improves the space utilization of the bedside table 1.
[0060] Optionally, the second drawer 30 is located at the bottom of the first drawer 20, and the third drawer 50 is located at the top of the first drawer 20. This results in a progressively increasing capacity for the three drawers of the bedside table 1 from bottom to top, allowing for a gradual increase in the volume of items that can be stored. The second drawer 30, first drawer 20, and third drawer 50 can be used to store small, medium, and large items respectively, promoting more organized storage and better aligning with user habits. Simultaneously, this design allows for the concealment of the second drawer 30, making it less easily discovered and improving the security of storing small or valuable items.
[0061] Understandably, in some other embodiments, the third drawer 50 may also be located at the bottom of the first drawer 20.
[0062] Optionally, the depth ratio of the second, first, and third accommodating spaces is 1:2:3. This results in the accommodating space dimensions of the three drawers in the bedside table 1 increasing sequentially from bottom to top, which is beneficial for meeting the need for separate storage of items of different sizes in the bedside table 1, realizing the storage and classification of items of different sizes. At the same time, the sum of the depths of the first and second accommodating spaces is equal to the depth of the third accommodating space. That is to say, if the second drawer and the first drawer are regarded as a combined drawer, and the combined drawer and the third drawer each occupy half the height of the bedside table, the second drawer is equivalent to an independent drawer separated from the combined drawer, thereby improving the space utilization rate of the combined drawer, avoiding wasted space inside the drawer, and thus improving the space utilization rate of the bedside table 1.
[0063] In some embodiments, considering that the second drawer 30 is located at the bottom of the first drawer 20, the depth of the first accommodating space is limited by the structure of the second drawer 30, resulting in a relatively small depth of the first accommodating space. Based on this, the first drawer 20 also includes a first bottom plate, a first back panel, and two first side plates 202. The first panel 201 is connected to the first bottom plate, and the two first side plates 202 are respectively connected to two opposite sides of the first bottom plate. One of the two first side plates 202 is connected to one end of the first panel 201, and the other of the two first side plates 202 is connected to the other end of the first panel 201. The first back panel is connected to the side of the first bottom plate away from the first panel 201. The first panel 201, the first bottom plate, the first back panel, and the two first side plates 202 enclose the first accommodating space. The top of the first side plate 202 is flush with the top of the first panel 201. This allows for an increase in the height of the first side plate 202, ensuring the depth of the first accommodating space, improving the first accommodating space's ability to block and limit the storage of items, and thus facilitating the storage of larger items and improving the safety performance of storing larger items.
[0064] Optionally, the top of the second panel 301 is flush with the top of the first side panel 202, that is, the top of the second panel 301 is flush with the top of the first panel 201. This facilitates the formation of a storage space with the same side height by the second panel 301, the first side panel 202, the first bottom plate, and the first rear panel when the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 are locked together. This improves the overall integrity of the second panel 301 and the first drawer 20. At the same time, since the top of the second panel 301 is flush with the top of the first panel 201, it improves the concealment effect of the first panel 201, leading thieves (or other users who do not want to discover the second storage space) to believe that the second panel 301 is the panel of the first drawer 20. This facilitates the concealed design of the second storage space and improves the security of storing small or valuable items.
[0065] Optionally, the drawer assembly also includes multiple slide rails 60. Two first side panels 202 are slidably connected to the cabinet body 10 via the slide rails 60, and the second drawer 30 is slidably connected to the first side panel 202 via the slide rails 60. The pull-out connection via the side panels facilitates the individual pulling out of the second drawer 30, as well as the simultaneous pulling out of the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30, to meet the bedside table 1's need for separate storage of items of different sizes. Simultaneously, it optimizes space utilization, reducing the space occupied in the depth direction of the first and second accommodating spaces, thereby increasing storage area and reducing interference or collisions with items stored in the bedside table 1. Furthermore, the pull-out connection of the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30 via the two first side panels 202 also improves the smoothness of opening and closing of the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30, enhancing structural stability.
[0066] In addition, it should be noted that since the second drawer 30 is used to store small items, the weight of the second drawer 30 and the items stored inside it will not be too large. Therefore, even if the second drawer 30 is connected to the side panel of the first drawer 20, it will not have a significant impact on the structural stability of the first drawer 20, thus ensuring the structural reliability of the first drawer 20.
[0067] Optionally, the side panel of the third drawer 50 is connected to the cabinet body 10 via a slide rail 60, thereby improving the structural reliability of the bedside table 1 while ensuring the smooth opening and closing of the third drawer 50.
[0068] In some embodiments, the bedside table 1 includes multiple support legs 70, which are spaced apart at the bottom of the cabinet body 10. The multiple support legs 70 support the bedside table 1, which helps to ensure that the second panel 301 has a sufficient distance from the ground. This facilitates the pulling of the second panel 301 relative to the ground, which is beneficial for storing items in the second drawer 30. It also provides sufficient hanging space for the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30 when they are opened relative to the cabinet body 10, so as to ensure the operational reliability of the bedside table 1.
[0069] To facilitate understanding of the structure of the drawer assembly and bedside table 1, the working process of bedside table 1 is briefly explained below:
[0070] When only the first drawer 20 needs to be opened, the pull ring 406 drives the rotating handle 405 to move inward (i.e., the second panel 301 points towards the first panel 201) to push the pull rod 404 through the first through hole 4011 and the second through hole in sequence. By rotating the pull ring 406, the rotating handle 405 drives the pull rod 404 to drive the locking part 403 to rotate. When the length direction of the locking part 403 rotates to the point where it intersects with the first direction, the pull ring 406 is released, so that the locking part 403 abuts against the side of the first pad 401 away from the second panel 301. At this time, the first panel 201 and the second panel 301 are locked together. When the user pulls the second panel 301 outward via the pull ring 406 (i.e., the first panel 201 points in the direction of the second panel 301), the locking assembly 40 drives the first panel 201 to move outward, so that the first drawer 20 and the second drawer 30 move outward simultaneously, thereby opening the first drawer 20 and hiding the second accommodating space. This is beneficial for hiding valuables stored in the second accommodating space, thereby improving security.
[0071] When the second drawer 30 needs to be opened separately, the pull ring 406 drives the rotating handle 405 inward, pushing the pull rod 404 through the first through hole 4011 and the second through hole in sequence. At this time, the locking part 403 separates from the first washer 401. By rotating the pull ring 406, the rotating handle 405 drives the pull rod 404 to drive the locking part 403 to rotate. When the length direction of the locking part 403 rotates to be parallel to the first direction, the locking part 403 can pass through the first through hole 4011, so that the second panel 301 separates from the first panel 201. When the user pulls the second panel 301 outward with the pull ring 406, the second drawer 30 moves outward independently relative to the first drawer 20 to open the second drawer 30, so as to take out and put in the items in the second drawer 30. At this time, the first drawer 20 can also be opened by pulling the first panel 201 or the first side panel 202.
[0072] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
