[0040] Embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference signs represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0041] The present embodiment provides a storage basket which can be installed in various devices with storage function to hold objects and detect the capacity of the objects in the storage basket. Figures 1-3 As shown, the storage basket comprises a storage basket body 1 and a detection assembly 2.

[0042] The storage basket body 1 comprises a fence 11, a bottom plate 12 and an elastic member. The fence 11 is connected to the bottom plate 12, and the fence 11 and the bottom plate 12 jointly form an object accommodating cavity 14 for accommodating objects. The bottom plate 12 comprises a fixed plate 121, a connecting plate 122 and a rotating plate 123 connected in sequence. The extension length of the fixed plate 121 and the connecting plate 122 is less than the length of the fence 11, and the extension length of the fixed plate 121, the connecting plate 122 and the rotating plate 123 is greater than the length of the fence 11. The fixed plate 121 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the fence 11 to reliably support the objects in the object accommodating cavity 14. The free end of the rotating plate 123 away from the connecting plate 122 is a free end, and the free end of the rotating plate 123 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the other side of the fence 11. The elastic member is connected between the connecting plate 122 and the fixed plate 121, and the connecting plate 122 can drive the free end of the rotating plate 123 to slide on the inner wall of the other side of the fence 11 under the elastic force of the elastic member. The detection assembly 2 is arranged on the rotating plate 123, and the weight of the objects in the object accommodating cavity 14 can be determined by the sliding position of the rotating plate 123.

[0043] That is, as the weight of the objects in the storage basket gradually increases, the connecting plate 122 rotates downward around the connection between the connecting plate 122 and the fixed plate 121 under the gravity of the objects, and the rotating plate 123 connected to the connecting plate 122 rotates when the connecting plate 122 rotates, and the free end of the rotating plate 123 slides along the inner wall of the fence 11. Until the gravity of the objects makes the fixed plate 121 and the connecting plate 122 both in a horizontal state, at this time, the storage basket is in a full capacity state, and the free end of the rotating plate 123 is located at the lowest point of the sliding position.

[0044] In the embodiment, the weight of the objects acts on the connecting plate 122 and is further embodied as the height of the free end of the rotating plate 123 sliding on the fence 11. As the weight of the objects in the storage basket gradually increases, the end of the connecting plate 122 away from the fixed plate 121 rotates downward, and the connecting plate 122 drives the free end of the rotating plate 123 to slide downward along the inner wall of the fence 11, that is, the greater the weight of the objects in the storage basket, the lower the position of the free end of the rotating plate 123 on the inner wall of the fence 11. When the storage basket is in a full capacity state, the free end of the rotating plate 123 is at the lowest sliding point relative to the inner wall of the fence 11. By detecting the sliding position of the rotating plate 123 by the detection assembly 2, the storage condition in the storage basket can be judged, and the detection result is more accurate without being disturbed by external environmental factors.

[0045] On the contrary, when the objects in the storage basket are gradually taken out, that is, the weight of the objects in the storage basket gradually decreases, the connecting plate 122 will rotate upward around the connection between the connecting plate 122 and the fixed plate 121 due to the gradually reduced gravity acting on it. When the connecting plate 122 rotates, the rotating plate 123 connected with the connecting plate 122 rotates, and the free end of the rotating plate 123 moves upward along the inner wall of the fence 11. Until there is no object in the storage basket, that is, no gravity of the object presses the connecting plate 122, at this time, the connecting plate 122 in the storage basket is in an inclined state, and the free end of the rotating plate 123 is at the highest point of the sliding position, so that the connecting plate 122 and the rotating plate 123 are both in a stable state.

[0046] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the fence 11 includes a first side wall 111, a second side wall 112, a third side wall 113 and a fourth side wall 114 connected in sequence. The first side wall 111 and the third side wall 113 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart, and the second side wall 112 and the fourth side wall 114 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The first side wall 111, the second side wall 112, the third side wall 113 and the fourth side wall 114 form a rectangular frame-shaped fence 11. The fixed plate 121 is connected to the bottom of the first side wall 111, part of the second side wall 112 and part of the fourth side wall 114 to block part of the opening at the bottom of the fence 11. In the embodiment, the first side wall 111, the second side wall 112, the third side wall 113, the fourth side wall 114 and the fixed plate 121 are integrally formed to improve the structural strength of the storage basket as a whole, thereby enhancing the load-bearing capacity of the storage basket.

[0047] Further, the free end of the rotating plate 123 is slidably abutted against the third side wall 113. Specifically, the end of the rotating plate 123 is provided with a sliding block 1231, and the inner side wall of the fence 11 is provided with a sliding groove 115 in the height direction, and the sliding block 1231 is slidably arranged in the sliding groove 115.

[0048] In the embodiment, the free end of the rotating plate 123 is provided with sliding blocks 1231 on both sides, and the second side wall 112 and the fourth side wall 114 are respectively provided with sliding grooves 115 corresponding to the sliding blocks 1231. When the connecting plate 122 drives the free end of the rotating plate 123 to slide along the third side wall 113, the sliding blocks 1231 on both sides of the rotating plate 123 slide in the sliding grooves 115, so as to ensure the smoothness of the free end of the rotating plate 123 when sliding relative to the third side wall 113, and limit the sliding of the free end of the rotating plate 123, so as to avoid the free end of the rotating plate 123 from being separated from the third side wall 113 during the sliding process, and further avoid affecting the normal use of the storage basket.

[0049] In another embodiment, the sliding blocks 1231 can also be arranged on one side of the rotating plate 123, and the sliding grooves 115 can be arranged on one of the second side wall 112, the fourth side wall 114 or the third side wall 113, which can also limit the sliding of the rotating plate 123.

[0050] In another embodiment, the sliding blocks 1231 can also be arranged on one side of the rotating plate 123, and the sliding grooves 115 can be arranged on one of the second side wall 112, the fourth side wall 114 or the third side wall 113, which can also limit the sliding of the rotating plate 123.

[0051] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the bottom plate 12 further comprises a first rotating shaft 124. The fixed plate 121 is provided with a first connecting portion 1211 on the side close to the connecting plate 122, the connecting plate 122 is provided with a second connecting portion 1221 on the side close to the fixed plate 121, a first connecting hole is arranged through the first connecting portion 1211, and a second connecting hole is arranged through the second connecting portion 1221. The first connecting hole and the second connecting hole are coaxially arranged, and the first rotating shaft 124 is sequentially arranged through the first connecting hole and the second connecting hole, so as to realize the rotating connection between the fixed plate 121 and the connecting plate 122.

[0052] Specifically, in the embodiment, the elastic member is a torsion spring 13, the torsion spring 13 is sleeved outside the first rotating shaft 124, and is clamped between the first connecting portion 1211 and the second connecting portion 1221. The torsion spring 13 comprises a first torsion arm and a second torsion arm, the first torsion arm is connected with the fixed plate 121, and the second torsion arm is connected with the connecting plate 122. Through the elastic force of the torsion spring 13, the connecting plate 122 has a tendency to rotate into the object accommodating cavity 14 when not subjected to other external forces. At the same time, the soft connection between the connecting plate 122 and the fixed plate 121 can also appropriately reduce the impact sound when the object falls on the connecting plate 122.

[0053] Specifically, the bottom plate 12 further comprises a second rotating shaft 125. The connecting plate 122 is provided with a third connecting portion 1222 on the side close to the rotating plate 123, and the rotating plate 123 is provided with a fourth connecting portion 1232 on the side close to the connecting plate 122. The third connecting portion 1222 is provided with a third connecting hole penetrating therethrough, and the fourth connecting portion 1232 is provided with a fourth connecting hole penetrating therethrough. The third connecting hole and the fourth connecting hole are coaxially arranged, and the second rotating shaft 125 is sequentially arranged in the third connecting hole and the fourth connecting hole, so as to realize the rotating connection between the connecting plate 122 and the rotating plate 123.

[0054] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the part of the fence 11 is provided with a limiting plate in the direction towards the object containing cavity 14, and the limiting plate is opposite to the position of the connecting plate 122. The connecting plate 122 can abut against the limiting plate under the action of the gravity of the object in the object containing cavity 14. The limiting plate is used for supporting and limiting the connecting plate 122 during the rotation of the connecting plate 122.

[0055] Specifically, the limiting plate is provided with two limiting plates which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting plate 122, so as to ensure the force balance and support stability of the connecting plate 122.

[0056] Specifically, the limiting plate is integrally formed with the fence 11, so as to improve the structural strength of the whole storage basket, thereby enhancing the load bearing capacity of the storage basket. Of course, the limiting plate can also be integrally formed with the fixed plate 121, or even, the limiting plate can be integrally formed with the fence 11 and the fixed plate 121. When the connecting plate 122 is rotated to be parallel to the fixed plate 121, the limiting plate abuts against and supports the bottom of the connecting plate 122, so as to prevent the connecting plate 122 from being separated from the fence 11, thereby preventing the object from falling off.

[0057] In the embodiment, the bottom of the fence 11 is provided with a first limiting plate 151 and a second limiting plate 152. The first limiting plate 151 is formed by extending from the connecting position of the fixed plate 121 and the connecting plate 122 to the direction of the connecting plate 122, and the second limiting plate 152 is formed by inwardly protruding from the bottom of the second side wall 112 and the fourth side wall 114 respectively, and the first limiting plate 151 and the second limiting plate 152 are connected to form an L-shaped limiting plate. The first limiting plate 151 and the second limiting plate 152 can support and limit the connecting plate 122 during the downward rotation of the connecting plate 122 under the force, so as to prevent the connecting plate 122 from being separated from the fence 11, thereby preventing the object from falling off. Of course, in other embodiments, only one of the first limiting plate 151 or the second limiting plate 152 can be provided, or the first limiting plate 151 and the second limiting plate 152 are not connected, which does not affect the supporting and limiting effect.

[0058] It can be understood that when there is no object in the storage basket, the free end of the rotating plate 123 is at the highest position on the third side wall 113, which is recorded as the first position. When an object falls into the storage basket, the connecting plate 122 is rotated downward, the second rotating shaft 125 is moved downward, and the free end of the rotating plate 123 is slid downward along the third side wall 113. When the storage basket is full, the free end of the rotating plate 123 slides to the lowest position along the third side wall 113, which is recorded as the second position. The distance between the first position and the second position in the vertical direction is the sliding track of the free end of the rotating plate 123.

[0059] As shown in Figures 1-3 The detection assembly 2 includes a magnetic piece 21 and a Hall sensor 22. One of the magnetic piece 21 and the Hall sensor 22 is arranged on the rotating plate 123, and the other is arranged on the outer side of the fence 11. The positions of the magnetic piece 21 and the Hall sensor 22 are opposite. When the free end of the rotating plate 123 slides between the first position and the second position along the side wall of the fence 11, the Hall sensor 22 can detect the position of the magnetic piece 21, so as to determine the position of the free end of the rotating plate 123 on the third side wall 113, and further determine the storage condition in the storage basket.

[0060] Specifically, in the embodiment, the magnetic piece 21 is arranged on the free end of the rotating plate 123, and the Hall sensor 22 is arranged on the side of the fence 11 and opposite to the magnetic piece 21. It can be understood that the Hall sensor 22 can be arranged on the outer side wall of the fence 11, and the Hall sensor 22 can also be arranged on the equipment shell at the installation position of the storage basket, as long as the position of the Hall sensor 22 is opposite to that of the magnetic piece 21, which is not limited here.

[0061] Further specifically, the Hall sensor 22 is provided with a plurality of Hall sensors 22, which are distributed in the height direction. For example, five Hall sensors 22 can be arranged, and the five Hall sensors 22 are evenly arranged between the first position and the second position to respectively represent the ice amount in the storage basket, such as 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%.

[0062] The weight of the objects is directly applied to the connecting plate 122, and is further embodied as the height of the free end of the rotating plate 123 sliding on the fence 11. As the weight of the objects in the storage basket gradually increases, the end of the connecting plate 122 away from the fixed plate 121 rotates downward, and the connecting plate 122 drives the free end of the rotating plate 123 to slide downward along the inner wall of the fence 11, that is, the greater the weight of the objects in the storage basket, the lower the position of the free end of the rotating plate 123 on the inner wall of the fence 11. When the storage basket is in a full capacity state, the free end of the rotating plate 123 is at the lowest sliding point relative to the inner wall of the fence 11. The detection of the sliding position of the rotating plate 123 by the detection assembly 2 can determine the storage condition in the storage basket, and the detection result is more accurate without being disturbed by external environmental factors.

[0063] The embodiment also provides a storage device, which comprises the device body 100 and the storage basket.

[0064] In the embodiment, the discharge port and the storage basket accommodating cavity 102 are formed in the device inner container 101, the inner wall of the device inner container 101 is provided with a hooking part 1011, the side of the storage basket body 1 away from the object accommodating cavity 14 is provided with a hook 17, and the hook 17 is hooked on the hooking part 1011, so that the reliable connection between the storage basket body 1 and the device inner container 101 is achieved.

[0065] It can be understood that the storage device can be an ice maker with an ice block storage function, the device body 100 is the body of the ice maker, and the storage basket accommodating cavity 102 is an ice basket in the ice maker that can store ice blocks, and the ice basket can detect the storage condition of the ice blocks made by the ice maker through the structure described in the application.

[0066] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present application are only examples for clearly illustrating the present application, and are not intended to limit the implementation modes of the present application. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made on the basis of the above description. Here, it is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation modes. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
