[0001] This utility model relates to a bathroom device, specifically a smart bathroom cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Intelligent light sensing is a common feature in existing bathroom products. Its principle is to automatically sense the presence of a human body through a microwave switch, thereby controlling the power supply to the light strip to achieve automatic supplemental lighting or illumination. Existing intelligent light-sensing bathroom equipment mainly includes intelligent mirror cabinets and intelligent bathroom vanities. When a bathroom vanity is paired with a regular mirror without light emission and sold as a set, the supplemental lighting function falls on the bathroom vanity, thus creating an intelligent bathroom vanity.

[0003] Current smart bathroom vanities primarily rely on LED light strips for illumination. To achieve a concealed installation and a more aesthetically pleasing appearance, these strips are typically installed along the lower edge of the basin or cabinet, usually using adhesive bonding. This presents several technical challenges: First, adhesive bonding is not robust, leading to strip detachment over time, and the exposed strips compromise waterproofing. Second, the electrical connections for the strips are inconvenient due to their power requirements, and the wiring is difficult to conceal. Third, the overall decorative effect of smart bathroom vanities is relatively poor, hindering product variety and market promotion.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. Example 1

[0028] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the smart bathroom cabinet described in this embodiment is a floor-standing bathroom cabinet, including a cabinet body 1, a 12V switching power supply 2, a microwave switch 3, and a light strip 4. The microwave switch 3 is a 12V radar switch, and the switching power supply 2 and the microwave switch 3 are electrically connected (e.g., Figure 3 The front panel of the cabinet 1 is provided with a groove 5 for accommodating the light strip 4. A fixing block 6 and a power supply block 7 are fixedly installed in the groove 5. A decorative light-transmitting plate 11 is also provided in the groove 5. The decorative light-transmitting plate 11 covers the light strip 4 and is fixed to the fixing block 6 and the power supply block 7.

[0029] The power supply block 7 is provided with a first terminal 8 and a second terminal 9, which are electrically connected. The first terminal 8 is electrically connected to the light strip 4; the second terminal 9 is electrically connected to the microwave switch 3. Specifically, as follows... Figure 4 , 5 As shown in Figure 6, the power supply block 7 is made of insulating material (such as plastic) and is generally T-shaped. The first terminal 8 is provided on the side of the power supply block 7, and the second terminal 9 is provided on the rearward protruding part of the power supply block 7. During installation, the rearward protruding part of the power supply block 7 passes through the front panel, so the second terminal 9 is located inside the cabinet 1, which makes it very convenient for the microwave switch 3, which is also located inside the cabinet 1, to be connected to the second terminal 9. The first terminal 8 and the second terminal 9 can be made into an electrically universal structure for easy connection.

[0030] The fixing block 6 and the power supply block 7 are provided with screw holes 10 and are fixed to the front panel by matching screws 12 (the screws 12 pass through the rear of the front panel). This method allows the fixing block 6 and the power supply block 7 to be firmly fixed in the groove, providing a foundation for the secure installation of the decorative light-transmitting panel 11. The fixing between the decorative light-transmitting panel 11 and the fixing block 6 and the power supply block 7 can be done in a conventional way, such as by gluing, or in the following ways: Figure 8 As shown, the screw 12 is made of a magnetically removable material (such as iron), and the inner side of the decorative light-transmitting panel 11 is provided with a magnetic block 13, the position of which corresponds to the position of the screw 12. The advantage of this is that the decorative light-transmitting panel 11 can be firmly fixed in the groove by the mutual attraction between the magnetic block 13 and the screw 12. During the installation process or when the style needs to be changed later, the screw 12 can be lifted out from the rear side, thus separating the magnetic block 13 and the screw 12, and the decorative light-transmitting panel 11 can be easily removed.

[0031] In addition, the decorative light-transmitting panel 11 can be dark glass, such as black glass or dark brown glass, which can cover the outline of the internal light strip and make the appearance more beautiful. The decorative light-transmitting panel 11 can also have an irregular surface, so that the light can be scattered, making it more dazzling.

[0032] This smart bathroom cabinet uses a switching power supply 2 to power a microwave switch 3. The microwave switch 3 detects the presence of a human body and controls the power supply to the light strip 4 to provide lighting or supplemental lighting. Of course, this technology is existing technology and will not be described in detail. Example 2

[0033] like Figure 9 As shown, the smart bathroom cabinet described in this embodiment is a wall-mounted bathroom cabinet with an openable cabinet door on the front side of the cabinet body. The switching power supply 2 and microwave switch 3 are located inside the electrical box 14. The electrical box 14 is located on the inner side of the cabinet body 1, and the rest is the same as in embodiment 1. Example 3

[0034] like Figure 10 As shown, the smart bathroom cabinet described in this embodiment is a wall-mounted bathroom cabinet with drawers on the front side of the cabinet. The power supply 2 and microwave switch 3 are located inside the electrical box 14. The electrical box 14 is located on the bottom of the cabinet 1, and the rest is the same as in embodiment 1.
