Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of daily necessities, in particular to a refrigerator handheld cover storage box. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an indispensable household appliance in modern families, the interior space design of the refrigerator is crucial to the user's experience. In recent years, as people's pursuit of life quality continues to improve, the design of the storage box inside the refrigerator has gradually attracted attention. However, the existing refrigerator storage box still has some shortcomings in actual use, especially in the use scenario of the upper layer of the refrigerator.

[0003] The related prior art such as Chinese patent application "Storage box", publication number: CN104729219A, discloses a storage box including a storage cavity and two side walls located on both sides of the storage cavity. The storage box further includes a partition structure that separates the storage cavity into a first storage cavity and a second storage cavity. The opening direction of the first storage cavity is different from the opening direction of the second storage cavity. The side wall is also provided with a first matching part that installs the first storage cavity towards the use direction and a second matching part that installs the second storage cavity towards the use direction. This arrangement makes the storage box function diverse, and after being installed to the back side of the refrigerator door, it can improve the utilization rate of the space on the back side of the refrigerator door.

[0004] However, the existing refrigerator storage box mostly does not have a handle, which brings many inconveniences to the user during use. The user needs to reach out to take and put the items in the storage box. The storage box without a handle not only increases the difficulty of the user to take the items, but also may cause the items to fall, and even cause safety hazards. Due to the lack of a handle, the user often needs to grasp the edge of the storage box when operating, which not only increases the burden on the hands, but also may cause the hands to slip. In addition, this design is particularly inconvenient when the user uses it frequently, especially in the case of narrow space and low temperature inside the refrigerator, the user experience is very poor.

[0005] In addition, the existing storage box mostly only has the basic storage function, and lacks optimization of the user's operation convenience. For example, although some storage boxes are equipped with a lid, the opening and closing operation of the lid is cumbersome, and it is difficult to operate during use due to the slippery hands.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the present application proposes a refrigerator handheld cover storage box with a handle. This design significantly improves the convenience of the user in taking and putting items in the upper layer of the refrigerator by adding a handle structure to the storage box. In addition, the present application also optimizes the design of the lid of the storage box, so that it achieves a better balance between sealing and ease of use. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a refrigerator handheld cover storage box, which improves the convenience of taking and placing objects by increasing the handle structure, and optimizes the cover design, considering both barrier property and ease of use.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by the present application is: a refrigerator handheld cover storage box, comprising a main box body, an upper cover and a handle, the top surface of the main box body is open, the upper cover is stacked on the main box body to block the opening, the edge of the upper cover partially extends outward to form a pinch part, the pinch part protrudes from the main box body, and the side surface of the main box body is provided with an upper clamping piece and a lower clamping piece, and the handle is detachably connected with the main box body through the upper clamping piece and the lower clamping piece.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the refrigerator handheld cover storage box has the following advantages: by arranging the handle on the main box body, the user can easily grasp the handle to take out or put into the storage box from the refrigerator. This design avoids the inconvenience of directly grasping the edge of the storage box, especially in the case of narrow space and low temperature inside the refrigerator, the presence of the handle significantly reduces the difficulty of taking objects, reduces the risk of hand slipping, and improves the user experience.

[0010] The handle is detachably connected with the main box body through the upper clamping piece and the lower clamping piece, which makes the handle can be installed or detached according to the user's needs. For example, when the storage box needs to be placed in a deep position in the refrigerator, the handle can be removed for better placement; when taking objects, installing the handle is more convenient. This flexibility further optimizes the use scenario of the storage box. The design of this clamping structure makes the installation and removal process of the handle simple and fast, without the need for additional tools or complex operations. This structure not only reduces the manufacturing cost, but also facilitates the daily use and maintenance of users.

[0011] The edge of the upper cover partially extends outward to form a pinch part, and the pinch part protrudes from the main box body. This design allows the user to easily pinch the pinch part when opening or closing the cover, without directly touching the surface of the cover. This not only facilitates user operation, but especially in the case of wet hands, the pinch part can provide better grip, avoiding the cover from being unable to open or close due to hand slipping.

[0012] The entire design of the storage box includes three main parts: the main box body, the upper cover and the handle, which is simple and clear. This simple design not only facilitates user understanding and use, but also helps to improve the reliability and durability of the product, reducing the risk of failure caused by complex structure.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present application, the main box body is in the form of a trapezoidal body structure, and the diameter of the bottom surface of the main box body is smaller than the diameter of the top surface opening of the main box body.

[0014] The structure design allows multiple main boxes to be inserted and stacked, significantly reducing the packaging and transportation costs of the product. At the same time, the trapezoidal structure can better adapt to the internal space of the refrigerator, especially the narrow area of the upper refrigeration space, improving the space utilization.

[0015] In some embodiments of the present application, the four corners of the inner bottom surface of the main box are provided with convex ribs.

[0016] When multiple main boxes are stacked, the upper main box is erected on the convex ribs of the lower main box, avoiding direct contact of the upper and lower main boxes with the inner bottom surface, thereby reducing wear and tear and prolonging the service life of the product.

[0017] In some embodiments of the present application, the top surface of the main box is outwardly folded to form a circle of flanges, and the flange located in the middle of the front side of the main box is bent downward to form a handle portion.

[0018] The design of the handle portion provides users with another operating mode. Users can choose to pull the storage box out a certain distance from the refrigerator (without completely removing it) through the handle portion, making it convenient to take out the goods and then push the main box back to its original position. This design increases the flexibility of use and meets the usage habits of different users. According to the actual use needs of users, the handle or the handle portion can be directed towards the user. Alternatively, in the case of limited space, it is also very convenient to detach the handle and use the handle portion.

[0019] In some embodiments of the present application, the outer edge of the upper cover is fitted with a flange, the middle of the upper cover is provided with a concave groove, the outer wall surface of the groove is fitted with the inner wall surface of the main box, and the inner bottom surface of the groove is adapted to the bottom structure of the main box.

[0020] The provision of the flange of the main box effectively increases the contact area between the upper cover and the main box. The provision of the groove of the upper cover, on the one hand, can further increase the contact area with the main box, better isolating the internal and external environments of the storage box. On the other hand, users can stack two storage boxes one on top of the other during use, with the bottom of the upper storage box located in the groove, providing high stability after stacking.

[0021] In some embodiments of the present application, the top of the rear side of the main box is provided with an upper clamping piece, the upper clamping piece includes two limit frames symmetrically arranged left and right, the two limit frames are connected with the flange of the main box, and clamping protrusions are arranged in the two limit frames.

[0022] The flange limits the position limit of the upward movement of the handle, and the two limit frames arranged on the main box limit the left and right and forward and backward movement of the handle, ensuring that the handle is firmly and reliably connected with the main box. The symmetrical design of the limit frame and the clamping protrusion makes the installation and disassembly of the handle more stable, reducing the use problems caused by loose structure.

[0023] In some embodiments of this application, a slot is provided at the bottom of the rear side of the main box, and a lower snap-fit ​​component is installed in the slot. The lower snap-fit ​​component has a rectangular outer frame structure, and a snap fastener is elastically provided at the bottom of the lower snap-fit ​​component.

[0024] The slot and lower latch design makes the connection between the handle and the main body more secure, while the elastic latch provides reliable fixing force and facilitates handle removal. The rectangular frame structure increases the strength and stability of the lower latch, further improving the reliability of the connection between the handle and the main body.

[0025] In some embodiments of this application, the handle has a U-shaped structure, the lower end of the handle is inserted into the slot and engaged with the lower locking member, and the upper end of the handle is inserted between the two limiting frames and engaged with the locking protrusion.

[0026] The U-shaped handle design is ergonomic, making it easy for users to grip and providing a comfortable user experience. The dual locking mechanism of slots and retaining frames ensures a more secure connection between the handle and the main body, while also facilitating installation and removal, thus enhancing the product's practicality and flexibility.

[0027] In some embodiments of this application, the upper cover above the handle is provided with a gripping part.

[0028] The grip design is tailored to user habits, making it easy to open or close the lid. It provides better grip, especially when hands are wet or slippery, preventing the lid from being unable to open or close due to slippage.

[0029] Preferably, the top cover is provided with a gripping part on both the front and back sides, so that the top cover can be easily opened or closed from any direction without considering its front or back position, further improving the convenience and flexibility of use.

[0030] In some embodiments of this application, a raised rib is provided along the edge of the bottom surface of the main box.

[0031] The raised ribs help the main box to be placed horizontally, increasing its stability and preventing it from shaking or tilting inside the refrigerator. This ensures that the storage box remains stable during use and improves the user experience.

[0032] Based on common knowledge in the field, the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0041] Refrigerator handheld storage box with lid, as in Example 1 Figures 1 to 2 As shown: It includes a main box body 1, a top cover 2, and a handle 3. By setting the handle 3 on the main box body 1, users can easily grasp the handle 3 to take the storage box out of or put it in the refrigerator. This design avoids the inconvenience of users having to directly grasp the edge of the storage box, especially when the interior space of the refrigerator is small and the temperature is low. The presence of the handle 3 significantly reduces the difficulty of retrieving items, reduces the risk of hand slippage, and improves the user experience.

[0042] The main box 1 has an opening on its top surface, and the upper cover 2 is stacked on top of the main box 1 to cover the opening. A portion of the edge of the upper cover 2 extends outward to form a gripping part 4, which protrudes from the main box 1. This design allows the user to easily grasp the gripping part 4 when opening or closing the lid without directly contacting the lid's surface. This not only facilitates user operation, but also provides better grip, especially when hands are slippery, preventing the lid from being unable to open or close due to slippage.

[0043] The main box 1 has an upper snap-fit ​​connector and a lower snap-fit ​​connector 6 on one side. The handle 3 is detachably connected to the main box 1 via the upper snap-fit ​​connector and the lower snap-fit ​​connector 6. This detachable connection allows the handle 3 to be installed or removed according to user needs. For example, when the storage box needs to be placed deeper in the refrigerator, the handle 3 can be removed for better placement; conversely, installing the handle 3 makes retrieving items more convenient. This flexibility further optimizes the usage scenarios of the storage box. The snap-fit ​​structure makes the installation and removal of the handle 3 simple and quick, requiring no additional tools or complex operations. This structure not only reduces manufacturing costs but also facilitates daily use and maintenance for users.

[0044] The storage box design of this application consists of three main parts: the main box body 1, the top cover 2, and the handle 3, with a simple and clear structure. This concise design not only facilitates user understanding and use but also helps improve the reliability and durability of the product, reducing the risk of failure caused by complex structures.

[0045] Example 2, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the main box 1 has an overall trapezoidal structure, with the bottom diameter of the main box 1 being smaller than the opening diameter of the top surface. This structural design allows multiple main boxes 1 to be inserted and stacked, significantly reducing product packaging and transportation costs. Simultaneously, the trapezoidal structure better adapts to the internal space of the refrigerator, especially the narrow upper refrigeration area, improving space utilization.

[0046] The main box 1 has protruding ridges 7 at the four corners of its inner bottom surface. When multiple main boxes 1 are stacked, the upper main box 1 rests on the protruding ridges 7 of the lower main box 1, preventing the upper and lower main boxes 1 from directly contacting the inner bottom surface, thereby reducing wear and extending the product's service life.

[0047] The top surface of the main box 1 folds outward to form a flange 8. The flange 8, located in the middle of the front side of the main box 1, bends forward and downward to form a handle 9. The handle 9 provides users with an alternative operating method. Users can choose to pull the storage box out of the refrigerator a short distance using the handle 9 (without completely removing it), making it convenient to retrieve items before pushing the main box 1 back into place. This design increases the flexibility of use and meets the usage habits of different users. Depending on the user's actual needs, either the handle 3 or the handle 9 can be oriented towards the user. Alternatively, in situations where space is limited, the handle 3 can be detached, and using the handle 9 is also convenient.

[0048] The outer edge of the upper cover 2 is fitted with the flange 8, and a recessed groove 10 is provided in the middle of the upper cover 2. The outer wall of the groove 10 is fitted with the inner wall of the main box 1, and the inner bottom surface of the groove 10 is adapted to the bottom structure of the main box 1. The flange 8 of the main box 1 effectively increases the contact area between the upper cover 2 and the main box 1. The groove 10 of the upper cover 2 further increases the contact area with the main box 1, better isolating the internal and external environments of the storage box. On the other hand, when in use, the two storage boxes can be stacked one on top of the other, with the bottom of the upper storage box located in the groove 10, resulting in high stability after stacking.

[0049] The rear side of the main box 1 is provided with an upper locking member, which includes two symmetrically arranged limiting frames 11. The two limiting frames 11 are connected to the flange 8 of the main box 1, and the two limiting frames 11 are provided with locking protrusions 12. The flange 8 limits the upper movement limit of the handle 3, and the two limiting frames 11 on the main box 1 limit the left and right and forward and backward movement of the handle 3, ensuring that the connection between the handle 3 and the main box 1 is firm and reliable. The symmetrical design of the limiting frames 11 and locking protrusions 12 makes the installation and removal of the handle 3 more stable, reducing usage problems caused by structural loosening.

[0050] A slot 13 is provided at the bottom of the rear side of the main box 1. A lower latching member 6 is installed in the slot 13. The lower latching member 6 has a rectangular outer frame structure, and a snap fastener 14 is elastically provided at the bottom of the lower latching member 6. The design of the slot 13 and the lower latching member 6 makes the connection between the handle 3 and the main box 1 more secure. The elastic snap fastener 14 can provide reliable fixing force and facilitate the disassembly of the handle 3. The rectangular outer frame structure increases the strength and stability of the lower latching member 6, further improving the reliability of the connection between the handle 3 and the main box 1.

[0051] The handle 3 has a U-shaped structure. The lower end of the handle 3 is inserted into the slot 13 and engages with the lower locking member 6, while the upper end of the handle 3 is inserted between the two limiting frames 11 and engages with the locking protrusion 12. The U-shaped handle 3 is ergonomically designed, making it easy for users to grip and providing a comfortable user experience. Through the dual locking method of the slot 13 and the limiting frames 11, the connection between the handle 3 and the main box 1 is more stable, while also facilitating installation and disassembly, thus improving the practicality and flexibility of the product.

[0052] The upper cover 2 above the handle 3 is provided with a gripping part 4. The gripping part 4 is designed in accordance with the user's usage habits, making it convenient for the user to operate when opening or closing the upper cover 2. Especially when the hands are wet and slippery, it can provide better grip and prevent the cover from being unable to be opened or closed due to slipping hands.

[0053] Preferably, the upper cover 2 is provided with a gripping part 4 on both the front and rear sides, so that the cover can be easily opened or closed regardless of the front or rear position of the upper cover 2, which further improves the convenience and flexibility of use.

[0054] The bottom surface of the main box 1 has a raised rib 15 along its edge. The design of the raised rib 15 helps the main box 1 to be placed horizontally, increases the stability of the main box 1, prevents it from shaking or tilting inside the refrigerator, ensures that the storage box remains stable during use, and improves the user experience.

[0055] The rest of the contents of Example 2 are the same as those of Example 1.
