Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a sliding electrical panel. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, many appliances on the market feature a sliding cover design with concealed air vents. This design offers the following advantages: 1. Concealed air vents are more aesthetically pleasing. 2. Concealed air vents hide the heating element, motor, and other electrical components, making the product safer to use. 3. Longer lifespan because the components are well-hidden when not in use, preventing the intrusion of dust, moisture, insects, and other debris. This keeps the appliance's interior cleaner, less prone to clogging and corrosion, thus extending its lifespan.

[0003] However, many sliding-cover appliance panels on the market typically use rack and pinion or belt transmission to achieve the sliding structure. These methods suffer from unstable operation, generating tensile forces in directions other than linear during operation, causing the slider to tilt and jam, resulting in inconvenience for users. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a sliding electrical panel, comprising a panel body, a sliding cover, and a sliding assembly. The panel body has an air vent at its upper end, and the sliding cover covers the air vent on the front of the panel body. The sliding assembly is located on the back of the panel body and includes a driving component and a driven component. The driving component includes a screw motor and a sliding cover connector. The screw motor is located on the back of the panel body below the air vent, with its screw extending towards the air vent. The sliding cover connector includes a base that passes through the air vent and is fixedly connected to the back of the sliding cover. A connecting plate is located at the lower end of the base, and a screw hole is formed at the center of the connecting plate corresponding to the screw. The screw is screwed into the screw hole, and its rotation causes the sliding cover to move up and down. The driven assembly includes a guide groove and guide wheels. Sliding grooves are provided on the front of the panel body at both ends of the air vent, and guide wheels are arranged within the sliding grooves. The guide grooves are located outside the guide wheels, and the top of the guide grooves is fixedly connected to the back of the sliding cover.

[0005] Furthermore, the base includes two parallel base plates, with a connecting frame fixed to the back of the sliding cover at the upper end of the base plates and the lower top surfaces of the two base plates connected by a connecting plate. A nut is installed in the central screw hole of the connecting plate, and the screw rod is screwed to the nut.

[0006] Furthermore, the sum of the height of the connecting frame and the height of the connecting plate is at least the same as the thickness of the main body of the panel where the air vent is located.

[0007] Furthermore, a motor bracket is provided on the back of the panel body, and the motor bracket is provided with a connecting post for connecting a screw motor.

[0008] Furthermore, the guide wheels on both sides of the air vent are divided into two groups, one group of guide wheels is attached to the inner side wall of the guide groove, and the other group of guide wheels is attached to the outer side wall of the guide groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the sliding cover is a honeycomb-shaped cover plate.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] Stable operation: Due to the linear push-pull force generated by the screw and nut, which is constrained by the thread, it produces a very smooth and linear push-pull force. Unlike other devices such as gear racks and belt drives, it does not generate tensile forces in any direction other than the linear one. This makes the machine more stable and linear during opening and closing, less prone to tilting and jamming. Furthermore, the push-pull force generated by the rotation of the screw and nut is far greater than the torque and torque of other transmitted forces, giving it greater load-bearing capacity.

[0012] The guide wheels are divided into two groups: one group fits against the inner sidewall of the guide groove, and the other group fits against the outer sidewall of the guide groove. After the pulley group is installed into the guide groove, it can form a very linear and stable motion trajectory. Then the pulley guide groove is connected to the sliding cover, producing a stable tangential linear sliding trajectory. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Example 1

[0019] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a sliding electrical panel includes a panel body 1, a sliding cover 2, and a sliding assembly. An air vent 3 is provided at the upper end of the panel body 1, and the sliding cover 2 covers the air vent 3 on the front of the panel body 1. The sliding assembly is located on the back of the panel body 1 and includes a driving component and a driven component. The driving component includes a screw motor 4 and a sliding cover connector. The screw motor 4 is located on the back of the panel body 1 below the air vent 3, and the screw 5 of the screw motor 4 extends towards the air vent 3. The sliding cover connector includes... The system includes a base 6, which passes through the air vent 3 and is fixedly connected to the back of the sliding cover 2. A connecting plate 7 is provided at the lower end of the base 6. A screw hole is opened at the center of the connecting plate 7 corresponding to the screw 5. The screw 5 is screwed into the screw hole, and the rotation of the screw 5 drives the sliding cover 2 to move up and down. The driven component includes a guide groove 11 and a guide wheel 10. A sliding groove 9 is provided on the front of the panel body 1 at both ends of the air vent 3. The guide wheel 10 is arranged in the sliding groove 9. The guide groove 11 is located outside the guide wheel 10. The top of the guide groove 10 is fixedly connected to the back of the sliding cover 2.

[0020] The base 6 includes two parallel base plates 12. A connecting frame 13, which is fixed to the back of the sliding cover 2, is provided at the upper end of the base plates 12 and downwards. The lower top surfaces of the two base plates 12 are connected by a connecting plate 7. A nut 8 is provided in the central screw hole of the connecting plate 7, and a screw rod 5 is screwed to the nut 8. The sum of the height of the connecting frame 13 and the height of the connecting plate 7 is at least the same as the thickness of the panel body 1 where the air vent 3 is located.

[0021] The back of the panel body 1 is provided with a motor bracket, and the motor bracket is provided with a connecting post for connecting the screw motor 4.

[0022] The guide wheels 10 on both sides of the air vent 3 are divided into upper and lower groups. One group of guide wheels 10 is attached to the inner side wall of the guide groove 11, and the other group of guide wheels is attached to the outer side wall of the guide groove 11. The sliding cover 2 is a honeycomb cover plate.

[0023] This invention offers stable operation. Because the linear push-pull force generated by the screw 5 and nut 8 is limited by the thread, it produces a very smooth and linear force. Unlike other transmission devices such as gears, racks, and belts, it does not generate pulling forces in any direction other than the linear one. This makes the machine more stable and linear during opening and closing, less prone to tilting or jamming. Furthermore, the push-pull force generated by the rotation of the screw 5 and nut 8 is far greater than the torque and torque of other transmitted forces, giving it greater load-bearing capacity.

[0024] The guide rollers 10 are divided into two groups: one group fits against the inner sidewall of the guide groove 11, and the other group fits against the outer sidewall of the guide groove 11. After the pulley group is installed into the guide groove 11, it can form a very linear and stable motion trajectory. Then the guide groove 11 is connected to the sliding cover 2 to produce a stable tangential linear sliding trajectory.
