Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage device technology, and in particular to a wall-mounted shelf with a foldable storage structure. Background Technology

[0002] Existing wall-mounted storage devices suffer from the following drawbacks: 1. Space occupation and inconvenient storage: Traditional shelves are mostly fixed structures (such as hooks and shelves), which cannot be folded for storage. Even when not in use, they still occupy wall space, affecting space utilization. Some foldable products can be retracted, but some parts are still exposed after folding, and their stability is poor when unfolded, making them prone to falling off due to external forces. 2. Limited installation methods: Most wall-mounted racks rely on screws for fixing, requiring drilling for installation and being immovable, which damages the wall decoration. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a wall-mounted storage device that combines quick installation and completely concealed storage to solve the problems of low space utilization efficiency and inconvenient installation in existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology and to provide a wall-mounted storage rack with a foldable storage structure.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a wall-mounted shelf with a foldable storage structure, including a mounting frame, a suction cup assembly on the back of the mounting frame, the suction cup assembly including a suction cup and an operating component, the operating component being configured to switch the suction state of the suction cup to achieve fixing or disassembly of the mounting frame, the mounting frame having a mounting cavity inside, a foldable storage arm hinged in the mounting cavity, the foldable arm being composed of multiple arm segments hinged sequentially; the end arm segment of the foldable arm being connected to a functional module; the foldable arm can be accommodated in the mounting cavity in the storage state, and the front of the mounting frame has an active window for the foldable arm to unfold and pass through.

[0005] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, at least one inner end segment of the folding arm is provided with an elongated hole extending along its length direction, and when the folding arm is in the folded state, the operating member is at least partially embedded in the elongated hole.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting frame is fixed inside the mounting cavity, and a gap is formed between the outer wall of the connecting frame and the inner wall of the mounting cavity. The gap extends along the axial direction of the connecting frame and surrounds the connecting frame circumferentially. A guide groove is formed on the inner side wall of the connecting frame for folding and storing the folding arm. The first end of the folding arm is hinged to the connecting frame.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer periphery of the connecting frame is provided with a plurality of slots at intervals, and the mounting bracket includes a mounting panel and the inner side of the mounting panel is provided with an elastic block that engages with the slots.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mounting panel covers the connecting frame, and the active window is opened on the mounting panel and corresponds to the connecting frame.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the adsorption control part of the suction cup assembly extends through the pressure ring on the back of the mounting bracket to the mounting cavity, and the operating component is linked with the adsorption control part to drive the suction cup to deform.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the suction cup assembly is arranged in two sets symmetrically along the longitudinal direction of the mounting frame, and the two sets of suction cups are controlled independently.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the functional module is configured to suspend or support external objects, including hooks, brackets or storage trays.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The storage rack with telescopic storage structure provided by this utility model has its folding arm completely retracted into the mounting cavity. After folding, the overall thickness is flush with the mounting frame, which greatly reduces the space occupied when not in use, resulting in high space utilization and a neat appearance. The operating component of the suction cup assembly is built-in and linked with the suction control unit. The suction state is switched through mechanical transmission inside the mounting cavity, avoiding failure of the external operating component due to accidental touch or moisture. The operating component can only be controlled after the folding arm is unfolded, making the operation concealed. The elongated hole of the inner end arm section matches the position of the operating component, ensuring no mechanical interference during folding and avoiding wear of the operating component or deformation of the folding arm caused by repeated storage. The folding avoidance structure improves durability. Attached Figure Description

[0025] A connecting frame 10 is fixed inside the mounting cavity 4. A gap 11 is formed between the outer wall of the connecting frame 10 and the inner wall of the mounting cavity 4. The gap 11 extends along the axial direction of the connecting frame 10 and is circumferentially arranged around the connecting frame 10. A guide groove 12 is formed on the inner side wall of the connecting frame 10 for folding and storing the folding arm 5. The first end arm segment 6 of the folding arm 5 is hinged to the connecting frame 10.

[0026] The outer periphery of the connecting frame 10 is provided with multiple slots 13. The inner side of the mounting panel 18 of the mounting bracket 1 is provided with elastic blocks 14 that engage with the slots 13. The mounting panel 18 and the connecting frame 10 can be quickly disassembled and assembled through the slots 13 and elastic blocks 14, which facilitates cleaning of internal dust or replacement of damaged parts. In this embodiment, the mounting panel 18 covers the connecting frame 10. The movable window 8 is opened on the mounting panel 18 and corresponds to the connecting frame 10. The mounting panel 18 is also provided with a hanger 17, which can be used to hang towels or other items. The hanger 17 can be a hook or other components.

[0027] The suction control part 15 of the suction cup assembly extends through the pressure ring part 16 on the back of the mounting bracket 1 to the mounting cavity 4. The operating member 3 is linked with the suction control part 15 to drive the suction cup 2 to deform.

[0028] Two sets of suction cup 2 components are symmetrically arranged along the longitudinal direction of the mounting bracket 1, and the two sets of suction cup 2 are independently controlled.

[0029] Functional module 7 is configured to hang or support external objects, including hooks, brackets or storage trays. In this embodiment, functional module 7 can be quickly replaced by fasteners, magnets, buckles, etc., and supports multiple uses such as hair dryer holder, mobile phone holder, storage tray, lighting, and makeup mirror.
