[0046] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this disclosure, the following detailed, clear, and complete description of this disclosure is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it.
[0047] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of this utility model, the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0048] Please refer to Figures 1-4As shown, this disclosure provides a cutlery basket, including a first basket body 1 and a second basket body 2, the second basket body 2 being movably connected to the first basket body 1. The first basket body 1 is provided with an adjustment mechanism for raising or lowering the second basket body 2. This application changes the height of the second basket body 2 by adjusting the adjustment mechanism (the adjustment here includes, but is not limited to, pushing, flicking, pressing, and rotating actions), which is easier and more convenient than the prior art. Specifically, the first basket body 1 includes a frame 3, and a partition 4 is provided on the frame 3. The adjustment mechanism includes a push-cover assembly 6 and a locking assembly that are linked together. The push-cover assembly 6 and the locking assembly are disposed on the partition 4. When the push-cover assembly 6 is activated, the second basket body 2 can be held in a first state or a second state, where the height in the first state is greater than the height in the second state.
[0049] Please refer to the following: Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 10 As shown, specifically, the partition 4 divides the frame 3 into a first area and a second area. The first area is equipped with a perforated shelf 5 for holding cutlery, and the second basket 2 is located in the second area. The second basket 2 includes a perforated first plate 11 and a second plate 12 surrounding the first plate 11. Two sets of limiting blocks 13 are provided on the side of the frame 3, and two sets of limiting slots 14 are provided at corresponding positions on the second plate 12. The limiting blocks 13 and the limiting slots 14 cooperate to limit the minimum height of the second basket 2 when it descends. When the second basket 2 is in the first state, the first plate 11 and the shelf 5 are almost at the same height. At this time, both the first basket 1 and the second basket 2 can hold cutlery such as cutlery. When the second basket 2 is in the second state, the height of the first plate 11 is lower than the height of the shelf 5. Since the second basket 2 has sufficient depth, it can hold cutlery such as cups, bowls, and wine glasses that are of a certain height. Users can choose the state of the second basket 2 according to the actual situation, thus making the cutlery basket more widely applicable. The height of the first basket 1 in this application is fixed, while the height of the second basket 2 is adjustable, thus making the use of the cutlery basket more flexible.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Figure 12 and Figure 17As shown, in one embodiment of this disclosure, the push-cover assembly 6 includes a plate-like structure 20. The plate-like structure 20 is provided with a pushing part 21 and a positioning part protruding to its upper and lower sides, respectively. The partition 4 is provided with a strip-shaped hole 10, and the positioning part is located in the strip-shaped hole 10. The plate-like structure 20 is located outside the strip-shaped hole 10, and the push-cover assembly 6 slides along the length direction of the strip-shaped hole 10. The length of the plate-like structure 20 is greater than the length of the strip-shaped hole 10, and the length of the strip-shaped hole 10 determines the distance the push-cover assembly 6 can move left and right. The pushing part 21 is a structure similar to a protrusion. The pushing part 21 is provided to facilitate the user to push the push-cover assembly 6 so that the push-cover assembly 6 slides along the length direction of the strip-shaped hole 10, thereby adjusting the height of the second basket 2. Preferably, the partition 4 is a strip-shaped protrusion provided along the width direction of the frame 3. The plate-like structure 20 and the pushing part 21 are provided on the upper surface of the strip-shaped protrusion, and the cross-section of the strip-shaped protrusion is U-shaped.
[0051] Please refer to the following: Figure 16 As shown, the positioning part further includes a first protrusion 18 and a second protrusion 19 disposed opposite to each other. The locking assembly includes a slider 16, which includes a base and a protrusion 17 disposed on the base. The protrusion 17 is located between the first protrusion 18 and the second protrusion 19. When the push cover assembly 6 is pushed, the protrusion 17 drives the slider 16 to move together. Specifically, the protrusion 17 is respectively fitted with the inner side of the first protrusion 18 and the second protrusion 19 to avoid gaps between the protrusion 17 and the first protrusion 18 or the second protrusion 19. A boss structure 27 is provided on the base, and the protrusion 17 is disposed on the boss structure 27. The ends of the first protrusion 18 and the second protrusion 19 are respectively provided with a first step structure and a second step structure adapted to the boss structure 27, so that the boss structure 27 fits the first protrusion 18 and the second protrusion 19 more closely. This arrangement allows the push cover assembly 6 and the slider 16 to cooperate better, avoiding unnecessary shaking or jamming of the slider 16 when it slides with the push cover assembly 6.
[0052] like Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 11 , Figure 18 , Figure 19 and Figure 21As shown, further, a base 8 is connected to the partition 4, and a locking assembly is disposed on the base 8. The locking assembly also includes a latch 7 and a first spring. The base 8 is provided with a first receiving groove 34, and the latch 7 is slidably disposed in the first receiving groove 34. The latch 7 is provided with a hollow cylindrical structure 24, and one end of the first spring is located in the cylindrical structure 24, while the other end abuts against the base 8. Specifically, the base 8 includes a first bottom plate 31, a first side plate 32, and a second side plate 33. Both the first side plate 32 and the second side plate 33 are disposed on the first bottom plate 31, and the first side plate 32 and the second side plate 33 are disposed opposite each other. The first receiving groove 34 is disposed on the first bottom plate 31, and a first through hole 36 is opened on the first side plate 32 for the latch 7 to pass through. The first spring abuts against the second side plate 33. When the second basket 2 is in the first state, one end of the latch 7 passes through the first through hole 36, and the latch 7 is located below the first plate 11, limiting the second basket 2 and preventing the second basket 2 from moving downward. To limit the latch 7 and prevent it from fully popping out of the first through hole 36, first limiting protrusions 37 are provided on both sides of the latch 7, and first limiting grooves 35 are respectively opened on the two side walls of the first receiving groove 34, with the first limiting protrusions 37 passing through the first limiting grooves 35. It should be noted that the base 8 remains stationary during the movement of the push cover assembly 6.
[0053] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 11 , Figure 15 and Figure 22 As shown, a first inclined surface 28 is provided on the base, and a first plane 29 and a second plane 30 are respectively provided on both sides of the first inclined surface 28. The distance from the first plane 29 to the second side plate 33 is greater than the distance from the second plane 30 to the second side plate 33. The distance between the first inclined surface 28 and the second side plate 33 gradually decreases from the first plane 29 side to the second plane 30 side. A stop block 38 is provided on the cylindrical structure 24, and the stop block 38 is in contact with the first inclined surface 28, the first plane 29, or the second plane 30. When the second basket 2 is in the first state, the stop block 38 contacts the first plane 29. During the process of pushing the cover assembly 6 to unlock the latch 7 (i.e., the latch 7 no longer limits the second basket 2), the slider 16 moves along with the cover assembly 6. The first inclined surface 28 contacts the stop block 38, and the latch 7 moves towards the second side plate 33 under the action of the first inclined surface 28, that is, the latch 7 retracts and unlocks. At this time, the latch 7 exits from the bottom of the first plate 11, and the latch 7 no longer limits the second basket 2. It can be understood that during the unlocking process, the stop block 38 contacts the first plane 29, the first inclined surface 28, and the second plane 30 successively. During this process, the first spring is gradually compressed. To facilitate a smoother movement of the stop block 38 from the first plane 29 into the first inclined surface 28 and from the first inclined surface 28 into the second plane 30, the side of the stop block 38 facing the base is provided with an arc-shaped surface 39.
[0054] like Figures 11-14 , Figure 16 and Figure 20 As shown, a first strip rod 9 and a second receiving groove 22 are provided on the base. The first strip rod 9 has an opening groove 41. The first side wall of the second receiving groove 22 has a first locking groove 25, and the second side wall of the second receiving groove 22 has a notch 26 for the first strip rod 9 to pass through. The first locking groove 25 contacts the bottom wall of the opening groove 41. One side wall of the opening groove 41 is located outside the first locking groove 25, and the other side wall is located in the first locking groove 25. A second spring 23 is provided in the second receiving groove 22. One end of the second spring 23 abuts against the first side wall, and the other end abuts against the side wall of the opening groove 41 located in the first locking groove 25. A second strip rod 15 is provided on the side of the frame 3 away from the first area. The second strip rod 15 is connected to the frame 3 by bolts. Two curved rods 40 are provided on the second basket 2. The curved rods 40 are perpendicular to the partition 4. One end of the curved rod 40 is connected to the first strip rod 9, and the other end is connected to the second strip rod 15. It should be noted that during the unlocking process of the latch 7, the slider 16 moves together with the push cover assembly 6. The distance between the side wall of the opening slot 41 in the first slot 25 and the first side wall of the second receiving slot 22 gradually decreases, and the second spring 23 is gradually compressed. When the second spring 23 is compressed to its limit, it drives the first strip rod 9 to move together, thereby driving the crank rod 40 to rotate downward by 90 degrees. The second basket 2 descends vertically under the action of the crank rod 40, which is the second state of the second basket 2.
[0055] Preferably, the curved rod 40 includes a middle section and first and second ends located at both ends of the middle section. A second slot is provided at the bottom of the second basket 2, with at least a portion of the middle section situated within the second slot. The first end is connected to the first strip rod 9, and the second end is connected to the second strip rod 15. Specifically, the middle section is a strip rod, and the first and second ends are inverted "L" shapes. To better connect the curved rod 40 to the second basket 2, fastening slots are also provided at both ends of the second slot, with at least a portion of the middle section situated within these fastening slots.
[0056] When the second basket 2 is in the first state, the push cover assembly 6 is pushed in the first direction, and the slider 16 moves with the push cover assembly 6. Under the action of the first inclined surface 28, the latch 7 moves towards the second side plate 33 and unlocks. As the push cover assembly 6 continues to move in the first direction, the compression degree of the second spring 23 increases. When the second spring 23 is compressed to its limit, it drives the first strip rod 9 to move in the first direction, thereby driving the crank rod 40 to rotate downward by 90 degrees. The second basket 2 descends under the action of the crank rod 40, and the second basket 2 changes from the first state to the second state. When the push cover assembly 6 is pushed to its limit position in the first direction, the push cover assembly 6 is released, the second spring 23 returns to its original position, and the push cover assembly 6 also returns to its original position. At this time, the stop block 38 abuts against the second plane 30.
[0057] When the second basket 2 is in the second state, the push-cover assembly 6 is pushed in the second direction. The push-cover assembly 6 moves the slider 16 together, and the slider 16 moves the first strip rod 9 in the second direction. The crank rod 40 rotates upward 90 degrees, and the second basket 2 rises under the action of the crank rod 40. After the second basket 2 is fully raised, the stop block 38 abuts against the first plane 29, the first spring is released, and the latch 7 resets and locks the second basket 2, preventing the second basket 2 from descending. The second basket 2 returns to the first state. When the push-cover assembly 6 is pushed to its limit position in the first direction, the push-cover assembly 6 is released, the second spring 23 resets, and the push-cover assembly 6 also resets. It can be understood that the first direction and the second direction are both the length directions of the partition 4, and the second direction is the opposite direction of the first direction.
[0058] The present application has been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the present application and its core ideas. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to the present application without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
