Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of partition devices, and in particular to a telescopic drawer divider device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most products such as cabinets, furniture, and home appliances have drawers or drawer-like components specifically designed for storing items. However, in daily use, different items are often placed in the same drawer, leading to clutter and difficulty in retrieving specific items, thus hindering efficient use of drawer space. Furthermore, the number and disorganization of stored items gradually increase. Therefore, an auxiliary tool is needed to effectively divide drawer space; this tool is called a drawer divider.
[0003] With the increasing demands of end users, some drawer dividers have emerged on the market. These dividers can extend and retract to adjust the length of the dividers according to the drawer specifications. However, most of these dividers have complex structures, resulting in high production costs. Furthermore, their multi-component structure leads to inefficient assembly and high installation learning costs. Moreover, they are prone to malfunction during use due to component failures or incompatibility. For example, the Chinese invention patent CN108968450A, "Telescopic Drawer Divider," includes a main divider and a secondary divider that slides with the main divider. The main divider has a cavity extending along its length, and one end of the secondary divider extends into the cavity and slides with it. A stop structure is provided between the main divider and the secondary divider to limit their relative movement when they move towards each other. Because the stop structure is located inside the cavity and has many components, its installation, manufacturing, and maintenance are quite difficult.
[0004] Therefore, optimizing the structure of drawer dividers to improve their operational and assembly convenience, as well as their adjustment flexibility, while ensuring reliable use, is a topic of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to propose a telescopic drawer divider device that is simple in structure, reliable in fit, and convenient in use.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A telescopic drawer divider includes a first divider and a second divider that are slidably connected to each other at one end. A locking structure is provided between the first divider and the second divider. The locking structure has a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the first divider and the second divider are relatively constrained and fixed. In the unlocked state, the first divider and the second divider can slide relative to each other. An arc-shaped portion with an elastic structure is provided at the other end of the first divider and / or the second divider. The arc-shaped portion is used to contact the side of the drawer.
[0008] As one possible implementation, further, a gap is formed between the other end of the first partition and / or the second partition and the arcuate portion, and a spring sheet extending in a direction away from the arcuate portion is provided on the side of the arcuate portion near the gap.
[0009] As a preferred implementation option, preferably, both the first partition and the second partition in this solution have an arc-shaped portion with an elastic structure at their other ends.
[0010] As a preferred implementation option, the outer side of the arc-shaped portion of this solution is preferably provided with an EVA layer.
[0011] As a preferred implementation option, the first partition in this solution is provided with a first limiting part with a U-shaped structure on both sides of one end, and a limiting area is formed between a pair of first limiting parts. The limiting area is used to guide the first partition and the second partition to slide relative to each other along the length direction, and one end of the second partition passes through the limiting area.
[0012] As a preferred implementation option, the second partition in this solution is provided with a second limiting part with a U-shaped structure on both sides of one end. The pair of second limiting parts are respectively used to cooperate and connect with the two sides of the first partition to guide the first partition and the second partition to slide relative to each other along the length direction.
[0013] As a preferred implementation option, preferably, the main bodies of the first partition and the second partition in this solution are both concave shell structures. The inner wall of one side of the first partition is provided with a rack structure along its length. One side of one end of the second partition is provided with an extension of an elastic structure corresponding to the rack structure. The extension is provided with a limiting tooth that meshes with the rack. The limiting tooth and the rack structure cooperate to form a locking structure. An clearance gap is provided between the main body of the second partition and the extension. A pressing block is also provided on one side of the extension.
[0014] When the locking structure is in the locked state, the limiting tooth engages with the rack structure, thereby constraining and fixing the first partition and the second partition relative to each other.
[0015] When the locking structure is in the unlocked state, the pressing block is subjected to force, which causes the extension to deform along the clearance gap, so that the limiting tooth separates from the rack structure, allowing the first partition and the second partition to slide relative to each other.
[0016] As a preferred implementation option, the first partition and the second partition are provided with a first guide groove on the side opposite to each other, and a first guide block is provided on the side of one end of the second partition corresponding to the first guide groove and slidingly engaging with it.
[0017] As a preferred implementation option, the first guide groove in this solution is provided with a limiting block at the end near the other end of the first partition, and the limiting block is used to limit the distance that the first guide block slides along the other end of the first partition.
[0018] As a preferred implementation option, the second partition plate in this solution is provided with a second guide groove on the side opposite to the first partition plate, and a second guide block is provided on the side of one end of the first partition plate corresponding to the second guide groove and slidingly engaging with it.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model solution using the above-mentioned technical solution are as follows: This solution provides an arc-shaped portion with an elastic structure on the first and / or second partitions, allowing the arc-shaped portion to contact the drawer side. This improves the contact reliability of the device during application. Furthermore, an EVA layer can be further provided on the arc-shaped portion. The lightweight and elastic properties of EVA material enable it to have higher adhesion and relative fixation when in contact with the drawer side, preventing the partition device from easily shifting due to collisions after being installed in the drawer. In addition, this solution cleverly shapes the locking structure substructures onto the first and second partitions. During production, only the first and second partitions need to be processed. By assembling the first and second partitions, the synchronous assembly of all sub-components of the locking structure can be achieved simultaneously. Under this structural form, the device is not only simple in structure but also has no loose or independent sub-parts, resulting in high assembly efficiency, convenient subsequent maintenance, and excellent reliability.

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be particularly noted that the following embodiments are only for illustrating the present invention and do not limit the scope of the present invention. Similarly, the following embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown in one embodiment, a telescopic drawer divider device includes a first divider 1 and a second divider 2 that are slidably connected at one end to each other. A locking structure 3 is provided between the first divider 1 and the second divider 2. The locking structure 3 has a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the first divider 1 and the second divider 2 are relatively constrained and fixed. In the unlocked state, the first divider 1 and the second divider 2 can slide relative to each other.
[0032] In this embodiment, the other end of the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 is provided with an arc-shaped portion 4 of elastic structure, which is used to contact the side of the drawer. However, this embodiment is not limited to this; the other end of either the first partition 1 or the second partition 2 may be provided with an arc-shaped portion 4 of elastic structure.
[0033] In this embodiment, the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 can both be made of elastic plastic material or elastic metal plate, etc.
[0034] As an example of an implementation structure, in this solution, a gap 41 is formed between the other end of the first partition 1 and / or the second partition 2 and the arc-shaped part 4. The side of the arc-shaped part 4 near the gap 41 is provided with a spring piece 42 extending in a direction away from the arc-shaped part 4. In this structure, when the arc-shaped part 4 on the first partition 1 or the second partition 2 abuts against the side of the drawer, the arc-shaped part 4 is subjected to a force and undergoes a certain deformation along the gap 41. The spring piece 42 acts as a support spring arm. When the deformation of the arc-shaped part 4 is greater than a certain degree, the spring piece 42 abuts against the end of the first partition 1 or the second partition 2, thereby providing support for the arc-shaped part 4 to avoid excessive deformation and breakage or other abnormal deformation problems.
[0035] As a preferred implementation option, the outer side of the arc-shaped part 4 in this solution is also provided with an EVA layer 43. Due to the lightweight and elastic material properties of EVA, it can have a higher fit and relative fixation when in contact with the side of the drawer, thus preventing the divider device from easily shifting due to collision after being installed in the drawer.
[0036] In this scheme, since the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 are slidably connected to each other, in order to improve the guiding stability of their sliding and avoid the deviation in the width direction, as a preferred implementation option, the first partition 1 is provided with a first limiting part 11 with a U-shaped structure on both sides at one end, and a limiting area is formed between a pair of first limiting parts 11. The limiting area is used to guide the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 to slide relative to each other in the length direction, and one end of the second partition 2 passes through the limiting area.
[0037] As an example of a possible superimposed implementation, the second partition 2 in this solution is provided with a second limiting part 21 with a U-shaped structure on both sides of one end. The pair of second limiting parts 21 are respectively used to cooperate and connect with the two sides of the first partition 1 to guide the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 to slide relative to each other along the length direction.
[0038] In terms of the implementation structure of the partition body, as a preferred implementation option, the main bodies of the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 in this solution are both concave shell structures. The inner wall of one side of the first partition 1 is provided with a rack structure 31 along its length direction; one side of one end of the second partition 2 is provided with an extension 32 of elastic structure corresponding to the rack structure. The extension 32 is provided with a limiting tooth 33 that meshes with the rack. The limiting tooth 33 and the rack structure 31 cooperate to form a locking structure 3. On this basis, a clearance gap 35 is provided between the main body of the second partition 1 and the extension 32. A pressing block 34 is also provided on one side of the extension 32. That is, the locking structure 3 in this solution includes a rack structure 31 provided on the first partition 1, an extension 32 provided on the second partition 2, a limiting tooth 33, and a pressing block 34 connected to the extension 32. The state switching of the locking structure 3 can be realized by pressing the pressing block 34.
[0039] Key points combined Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, when the locking structure 3 is in the locked state, the limiting tooth 33 engages with the rack structure 31, thereby constraining and fixing the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 relative to each other.
[0040] When the locking structure 3 is in the unlocked state, the pressing block 34 is subjected to force, which causes the extension 32 to deform along the clearance gap 35, so that the limiting tooth 33 separates from the rack structure 31, allowing the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 to slide relative to each other.
[0041] Key points combined Figure 6 or Figure 7 As shown, as a preferred implementation option, the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 are provided with a first guide groove 12 on their opposite sides. In this embodiment, the first guide groove 12 is a pair, or it can be a single guide groove structure. The side of one end of the second partition 2 is provided with a first guide block 23 that slides and engages with the first guide groove 12.
[0042] Combination Figure 8 As shown, as an optional implementation example, the first guide groove 12 is provided with a limiting block 14 at the end near the other end of the first partition 1. The limiting block 14 is used to limit the distance that the first guide block 23 slides along the other end of the first partition 1.
[0043] In the above structural configuration, for ease of assembly, the other two sides of the first partition 1 are provided with first clearance grooves 15 corresponding to the second limiting portion 21 on the second partition 2, and the other two sides of the second partition are provided with second clearance grooves 24 corresponding to the first limiting portion 11 on the first partition 1. Combined with... Figure 9As shown, in this structure, when assembling the first partition 1 and the second partition 2, firstly, the end faces of the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 are attached together, so that the first limiting part 11 is opposite to the first clearance groove 15 and the second limiting part 21 is opposite to the second clearance groove 24. Then, the end faces of the first partition 1 and the second partition 2 are attached together in the opposite direction, and then the first partition 1 is fixed. By manually pressing the pressing block 34 on the second partition 2, the limiting teeth 33 of the locking structure 3 are misaligned with the rack structure 31 on the first partition 1. Then, the second partition 2 is pulled to move away from the first partition 1. At the same time, the first limiting part 11 is inserted into both sides of the second partition 2 and the second limiting part 21 is inserted into both sides of the first partition 1.
[0044] Combination Figure 8 As shown, when a limiting block 14 is provided in the first guide groove 12, the side of the limiting block away from the second partition 2 is a slope structure 141. The height of the limiting block 14 is slightly higher than the fitting gap between the first guide block 23 and the first partition 1. The first guide block 23 can be a thin plate structure. In this way, when assembling the first partition 1 and the second partition 2, by pulling the second partition 2, the first guide block 23 can be deformed by force, so that it passes over the limiting block 14, thereby realizing the assembly. This is a commonly used assembly method in the assembly of plastic parts or metal elastic parts, and will not be described in detail here.
[0045] In addition to the above, the first guide groove 12 of this solution may not need to be equipped with a limiting block 14. Instead, the relative position between the first partition 2 and the second partition 3 can be controlled directly by the cooperation of the locking structure 3, so as to realize the change of the extension and retraction state of the partition device.
[0046] However, the solution in this embodiment is not limited to this, and can be combined with... Figure 6 As shown, as a preferred implementation option, the second partition 2 can also be provided with a second guide groove 22 on the side opposite to the first partition 1, and a second guide block 13 is provided on the side of one end of the first partition 1 corresponding to the second guide groove 22 and slidingly engaging with it.
[0047] The above description is only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and does not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any equivalent device or equivalent process transformation made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields, are similarly included in the patent protection scope of this utility model.
