[0033] In order to improve the efficiency of taking things, the present application provides a storage cabinet.
[0034] A storage cabinet provided by the present application is explained and described below through specific embodiments.Figure 1 A structure diagram of a storage cabinet is provided in the embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the storage cabinet comprises a cabinet body, and the cabinet body is internally provided with guide rails 1 and multiple functional areas. The guide rails 1 comprise transverse guide rails and longitudinal guide rails, and each functional area comprises multiple storage compartments 2. Figure 1
[0035] The guide rails are fixed at first preset positions of the functional areas, and the moving parts 3 of the multiple storage compartments are slidingly arranged on the guide rails, and the multiple storage compartments move along the transverse direction or the longitudinal direction under the action of external force.
[0036] Figure 2 A structure diagram of an internal storage compartment of a storage cabinet is provided in the embodiment of the present application. The arrangement structure of the internal storage compartment of the storage cabinet is shown in the figure. Figure 2 The height, size and dimensions of the storage cabinet can be designed according to actual requirements, and the number of layers and the number of storage compartments per layer of the storage cabinet can also be designed according to actual requirements. It should be noted that, regardless of the size and dimensions of the storage cabinet, a preset storage compartment is arranged. Figure 2 The upper position of the 6# storage compartment is the preset storage compartment of the storage cabinet. The position of the preset storage compartment is not provided with a storage compartment. The preset storage compartment of each storage cabinet is designed to facilitate the user to take out the storage compartment. The number of preset storage compartments is at least one, and the specific arrangement of the preset storage compartment can be designed by the user as long as the user can take out the storage compartment after opening the cabinet door. This does not limit the preset storage compartment.
[0037] For example, if the target storage compartment is not next to the side of the cabinet door of the storage cabinet, the user cannot immediately take out the target storage compartment after opening the cabinet door. Therefore, the multiple storage compartments can be moved along the guide rails until the target storage compartment is moved from the deep part of the storage cabinet to the preset storage compartment. Thus, the user does not need to manually search for the item, and the storage compartment can be directly moved to facilitate the user to take out the item, thereby improving the efficiency of taking out the item.
[0038] In summary, in the embodiment, the storage cabinet comprises a cabinet body, and the cabinet body is internally provided with guide rails and multiple functional areas. The guide rails comprise transverse guide rails and longitudinal guide rails, and each functional area comprises multiple storage compartments. The guide rails are fixed at first preset positions of the functional areas, and the moving parts of the multiple storage compartments are slidingly arranged on the guide rails, and the multiple storage compartments move along the transverse direction or the longitudinal direction under the action of external force. Thus, the user does not need to manually search for the item, and the storage compartment can be directly moved to facilitate the user to take out the item, thereby improving the efficiency of taking out the item.
[0039] Based on the above Figure 1 corresponding embodiments, in another embodiment of the present application, the cabinet body is further internally provided with a controller.
[0040] The controller is connected to the moving parts of the multiple storage compartments, and the controller controls the moving parts of the multiple storage compartments to move the multiple storage compartments of the same functional area along the transverse direction or the longitudinal direction.
[0041] By setting the controller, the movement of the plurality of storage compartments can be automatically controlled to move the target storage compartment to the preset taking position, thereby facilitating the user to take the object.
[0042] It should be noted that the controller is not shown in the drawings, and the placement position and specific model of the controller are not limited as long as the control function can be realized. The controller can be provided with a control display screen, which facilitates the user to input the information of the target storage compartment on the control display screen to determine the target storage compartment. The controller can also be in communication connection with an external terminal device (such as a mobile phone), which facilitates the user to input the information of the target storage compartment on the external terminal device to determine the target storage compartment.
[0043] In summary, in the embodiment, the cabinet further comprises a controller, the controller is connected to the moving parts of the plurality of storage compartments, and the controller controls the moving parts of the plurality of storage compartments to move the plurality of storage compartments in the same functional area along the horizontal direction or the vertical direction. Thus, the movement of the plurality of storage compartments can be automatically controlled, thereby facilitating the user to take the object.
[0044] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, another storage cabinet is provided in the embodiments of the present application. Figure 3 The structure diagram of another storage cabinet provided in the embodiments of the present application is shown.

[0046] For example, the first lead screw 4 can control the movement of the storage compartment in the vertical direction. For example, referring to Figure 2 , the first lead screw 4 can move the 4# storage compartment to the position of the 10# storage compartment, or move the 11# storage compartment to the position of the 5# storage compartment. It should be noted that the preset vertical position can be set by the user as long as the first lead screw 4 can control the movement of the storage compartment in the vertical direction.
[0047] In the actual control process, the controller moves the target storage compartment to the position that can be controlled by the first lead screw 4, realizes the movement in the same layer, and then controls the movement across layers by the first lead screw 4.
[0048] In summary, in the embodiment, the cabinet further comprises a first lead screw, the first lead screw is arranged at a preset vertical position, the controller is connected to the first lead screw, and the controller controls the first lead screw to rotate and drive the storage compartment at the preset vertical position to move across layers along the direction of the first lead screw.

[0050] For example, the second lead screw 5 can control the movement of the storage compartment in the longitudinal direction. For example, with reference to Figure 2 The second lead screw 5 can move the 9# storage compartment to the position of the 10# storage compartment, or can move the 8# storage compartment to the position of the 11# storage compartment. It should be noted that the preset longitudinal position and the preset taking position are located in the same longitudinal direction (the direction of the second lead screw), and the second lead screw 5 controls the movement of the storage compartment in the longitudinal direction to the preset taking position, which facilitates taking.
[0051] In the actual control process, the controller moves the target storage compartment to a position that can be controlled by the first lead screw 4, realizes the movement in the same layer, and then controls the movement of the first lead screw 4 to realize the movement across layers, and finally controls the movement of the second lead screw 5 to move the storage compartment to the preset taking position. Thus, any position of the storage compartment can be moved to the preset taking position, and the specific movement path can be preset in the controller, which is not limited here.
[0052] In summary, in the embodiment, the cabinet further comprises a second lead screw, the second lead screw is arranged at a preset longitudinal position, a controller is connected to the second lead screw, and the controller controls the second lead screw to rotate and drive the storage compartment at the preset longitudinal position to move along the direction of the second lead screw.
