Embodiments
[0038] Please refer to Figures 1-9 A toaster, comprising a toaster body 1 and a bottom 2, the bottom 2 is arranged at the bottom position of the toaster body 1, the bottom of the toaster body 1 and the top of the bottom 2 are both smooth and connected through the mounting structure, the four corners of the bottom 2 are integrally formed with support seats 3, the four corners of the top of the inner side of the bottom 2 are provided with threaded rods 4, the outer part of the threaded rods 4 is rotatably connected with a matching adjusting sleeve 401 through threads, and the adjusting sleeve 401 is connected with support feet 5 at the bottom to realize support.
[0039] The toaster of the present application is mainly composed of a body 1, a bottom 2, support seats 3, threaded rods 4, adjusting sleeves 401, mounting plates 4001, support feet 5 and anti-skid pads 6 and the like, and the following is the detailed structure and working principle.
[0040] (I) Component assembly
[0041] Assembling of the toaster body 1 and the bottom 2
[0042] When designing the toaster body 1 and the bottom 2, the bottom of the toaster body 1 and the top of the bottom 2 are specially processed into smooth surfaces. This smooth design provides a good foundation for the connection of the two.
[0043] In the actual assembly operation, the clamping plate 201 on both sides of the top of the furnace bottom 2 needs to be accurately aligned with the assembly clamping groove 101 on both sides of the bottom of the toaster body 1. This process requires a certain degree of operating precision to ensure that the clamping plate 201 can be smoothly and tightly inserted into the assembly clamping groove 101. At the same time, the fixing sleeve 102 on the outer periphery of the top of the furnace bottom 2 will be sleeved on the outer periphery of the toaster body 1. Since the fixing sleeve 102 and the outer periphery of the toaster body 1 are designed with an interference fit, a certain friction force will be generated during the sleeving process, which enables the toaster body 1 and the furnace bottom 2 to be firmly connected together, preventing them from loosening or separating during daily use.
[0044] Assembly of support structure related components
[0045] When installing the threaded rod 4 at the four corners on the inside top of the furnace bottom 2, the installation plate 4001 needs to be matched with the installation groove 4002 on the inside top of the furnace bottom 2 first. The size of the installation groove 4002 is accurately designed according to the size of the installation plate 4001. After inserting the installation plate 4001 into the installation groove 4002, it is fixed using adhesive. When selecting the adhesive, its adhesive strength and temperature resistance performance need to be considered to ensure that the installation plate 4001 and the installation groove 4002 can always maintain a tight connection state during the use of the toaster.
[0046] The threaded rod 4 is connected with the adjusting sleeve 401 through threads. The lower part of the outer cylinder of the adjusting sleeve 401 is provided with a rotating part 403, which can be a knob convenient for manual operation or other structures suitable for rotation. Rotating the rotating part 403 can drive the adjusting sleeve 401 to rotate around the threaded rod 4. The upper part of the outer cylinder of the adjusting sleeve 401 is connected with a stabilizing part 402, and the top of the stabilizing part 402 is designed in the shape of a flexible suction cup. When the adjusting sleeve 401 is installed in place, the top of the stabilizing part 402 will contact the bottom of the installation plate 4001. This contact not only plays an auxiliary stabilizing role when the adjusting sleeve 401 is working normally, but also produces a tight contact between the stabilizing part 402 and the installation plate 4001 when the adjusting sleeve 401 is retracted, thereby limiting the movement of the adjusting sleeve 401 and further improving its stability in the retracted state.
[0047] The bottom of the adjusting sleeve 401 is connected with the support leg 5. The part of the bottom of the support leg 5 that is in contact with the placement plane is provided with an anti-skid pad 6 made of rubber. The design of the anti-skid pad 6 needs to be paid attention to in multiple details. The middle part of the outer periphery of the anti-skid pad 6 is connected with an outer support hoop 602. The outer support hoop 602 provides an external support structure for the anti-skid pad 6. When the anti-skid pad 6 is installed on the support leg 5, the top of the anti-skid pad 6 is first inserted into the inner recessed circular groove 502 formed at the bottom of the support leg 5, which realizes preliminary positioning. Then, the multiple elastic positioning plug balls 603 glued on the outer support hoop 602 interact with the plug holes 503 formed at the outer periphery of the opening of the inner recessed circular groove 502. Since the positioning plug balls 603 are elastic, they will deform to a certain extent when inserted into the plug holes 503, thereby realizing interference fit fixation. This connection mode can ensure that the anti-skid pad 6 is firmly installed on the support leg 5, and at the same time, when the anti-skid pad 6 needs to be replaced, it can also be disassembled by appropriate external force.
[0048] The bottom of the support leg 5 is provided with a plurality of balls 501, which are installed on the support leg 5 through a special rotary connection structure. This rotary connection structure ensures that the balls 501 can roll freely, while preventing the balls 501 from falling off the support leg 5. In some specific use scenarios, for example, when the toaster needs to be moved on a smooth table top, the anti-skid pad 6 is removed, and the balls 501 can play a role in rolling to achieve easy movement of the toaster.
[0049] (II) Height adjustment operation
[0050] When the user needs to adjust the placement height of the toaster, the operation process is as follows:
[0051] The rotating part 403 of the adjusting sleeve 401 is manually rotated. Since the adjusting sleeve 401 and the threaded rod 4 are connected through threads, according to the principle of threaded transmission, when the rotating part 403 drives the adjusting sleeve 401 to rotate, the adjusting sleeve 401 will move up and down along the axial direction of the threaded rod 4.
[0052] The up and down movement of the adjusting sleeve 401 directly drives the support leg 5 connected to the bottom of the adjusting sleeve 401 to move synchronously. When the support leg 5 moves downward and exceeds the support seat 3 integrally formed at the four corners of the bottom of the toaster 2, the entire toaster is lifted, thereby realizing height adjustment.
[0053] In order to more conveniently and accurately perform the height adjustment operation, a scale mark can be provided on the outside of the adjusting sleeve 401. These scales can be marked according to certain height units, for example, in millimeters. In this way, the user can adjust the toaster to the appropriate height position according to the actual needs by observing the scale during adjustment.
[0054] II. Working principle
[0055] (I) Connection principle of toaster body and bottom
[0056] The connection between the toaster body 1 and the bottom 2 adopts a design combining two ways.
[0057] The plug-in cooperation between the card insertion plate 201 and the assembly card slot 101 is a relatively common but effective connection method. This method realizes preliminary positioning and connection through shape matching. During the insertion process, a certain friction will be generated between the card insertion plate 201 and the side wall of the assembly card slot 101, which helps to maintain the stability of the connection.
[0058] The interference fit between the fixed sleeve 102 and the outer periphery of the toaster body 1 further strengthens the firmness of the connection. Interference fit refers to the inner diameter of the fixed sleeve 102 being slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the toaster body 1 during assembly. During the sleeving process, due to the elasticity of the material, the fixed sleeve 102 will tightly wrap around the outer periphery of the toaster body 1, generating a large friction force. This friction force can withstand various external forces generated during daily use of the toaster, such as movement and vibration, ensuring that the toaster body 1 and the bottom 2 are always tightly connected together and will not loosen.
[0059] (II) Height adjustment mechanism of support feet
[0060] The height adjustment mechanism of the support feet 5 is mainly based on the screw thread transmission principle.
[0061] The threaded connection between the adjustment sleeve 401 and the threaded rod 4 plays a key role. When the rotating part 403 of the adjustment sleeve 401 is rotated, the adjustment sleeve 401 moves like a nut on a bolt, which is analogous to the threaded rod 4. Since the pitch of the thread is fixed, the adjustment sleeve 401 will rise or fall by a fixed distance for each angle of rotation.
[0062] The presence of the stabilizing piece 402 plays an important role in stabilizing the adjustment sleeve 401. The suction cup shape of the stabilizing piece 402 can tightly fit the bottom of the mounting plate 4001. During the rotation of the adjustment sleeve 401, this fit can prevent the adjustment sleeve 401 from shaking or shifting. Especially when the adjustment sleeve 401 is rotated to be retracted, the contact between the stabilizing piece 402 and the mounting plate 4001 can effectively limit the movement of the adjustment sleeve 401, ensuring that it can remain stable in the retracted state and will not be accidentally rotated due to external forces or vibrations, causing the position of the support feet 5 to change.
[0063] (III) Connection and function principle of non-slip pad (6) and support foot (5)
[0064] The connection design of the non-slip pad 6 and the support foot 5 is quite ingenious.
[0065] The anti-skid pad 6 is initially positioned by being inserted into the inner recessed circular groove 502 at the bottom of the support leg 5. This insertion design can ensure the relative position of the anti-skid pad 6 and the support leg 5 to a certain extent.
[0066] The interference fit between the positioning plug ball 603 on the outer support hoop 602 and the insertion hole 503 at the outer periphery of the opening of the inner recessed circular groove 502 is the key to firm connection. The elasticity of the positioning plug ball 603 enables it to deform when inserted into the insertion hole 503, thereby generating sufficient friction and connection force. This connection mode not only ensures that the anti-skid pad 6 will not fall off the support leg 5 during daily use, but also enables the anti-skid pad 6 to be easily and conveniently disassembled by exerting appropriate external force to overcome the interference fit between the positioning plug ball 603 and the insertion hole 503 when the anti-skid pad 6 needs to be replaced.
[0067] The anti-skid pad 6 is made of rubber, which mainly utilizes the high friction coefficient characteristic of rubber. When the toaster is placed on the table, the anti-skid pad 6 is in contact with the table, which can effectively increase the friction between the toaster and the table, prevent the toaster from sliding due to operation vibration or external force during use, and ensure the stability of the placement. The anti-skid pad 6 is further integrally formed with a plurality of anti-skid structures 601 in a conical state at the bottom, which can further improve the stability of the placement.
[0068] (Four) The principle of the ball (501)
[0069] The balls 501 around the bottom of the support leg 5 are designed to facilitate the movement of the toaster under certain conditions.
[0070] The balls 501 are installed on the support leg 5 through a special rotary connection structure, which allows the balls 501 to freely roll when subjected to external force. When the anti-skid pad 6 is disassembled and the toaster is placed on a smooth table, a horizontal force is exerted on the toaster, and the balls 501 will roll between the table and the support leg 5, converting sliding friction into rolling friction. The friction of rolling friction is much smaller than that of sliding friction, so that the toaster can be easily moved on the table. This design is very practical when the position of the toaster on the table needs to be adjusted or the table needs to be cleaned.
[0071] It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments of the utility model shown in the above description and the drawings are only examples and do not limit the utility model. The purpose of the utility model has been completely and effectively achieved. The function and structure principle of the utility model have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments, and the implementation of the utility model can be any deformation or modification without departing from the principle.
