Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of snack cabinet technology, and in particular to a rotatable snack cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Since the kitchen is not only a place for cooking but also for storing various ingredients, seasonings, and food, its design typically includes ample storage space. Placing a snack cabinet in the kitchen allows for categorized storage of snacks, enhancing the kitchen's multifunctionality and optimizing its spatial layout. Existing technology uses wall-mounted or tall cabinets as snack cabinets, and by inserting dividers of varying heights, it improves the utilization efficiency of the cabinet's internal space. Users can then categorize and store different snacks on these dividers.

[0003] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that the following defects exist: Existing snack cabinets are all fixed designs, making it inconvenient for users to retrieve items stored deep within the snack cabinet, failing to effectively utilize the three-dimensional space of the snack cabinet, and resulting in a waste of storage space. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problem that fixed snack cabinet designs make it inconvenient for users to retrieve items stored deep within the cabinet, thus failing to effectively utilize the cabinet's three-dimensional space and resulting in wasted storage space, this application provides a rotatable snack cabinet.

[0005] The rotating snack cabinet provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A rotatable snack cabinet includes a cabinet body with an installation cavity inside. A cabinet door is located on the outer side of the cabinet body. Horizontal bars are installed at both ends of the cabinet door, perpendicular to the door. Vertical bars are installed on both sides of each horizontal bar. Several storage frames are arranged between two vertical bars. A limiting component is provided between each vertical bar and a storage frame. A slide rail is provided at the end of each horizontal bar away from the storage frames. The end of the slide rail away from the horizontal bar is fixed to the inner wall of the cabinet body. A pivot is provided between the slide rail and the horizontal bar. A bearing is fitted on the outer side of the pivot. The end of the pivot away from the slide rail is fixed to the horizontal bar. The horizontal bar rotates around the center line of the pivot via the bearing, with a rotation angle of 0-90 degrees.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, several storage boxes can be installed at different heights on the vertical rod according to needs. Snacks are then categorized and stored in the storage boxes. When snacks need to be retrieved, the cabinet door is pulled outwards, at which point the slide rail slides away from the mounting cavity. Then, the cabinet door is rotated, the horizontal rod rotates, and the storage boxes rotate simultaneously. Users can easily find the snacks they need and conveniently retrieve snacks that were originally located in corners or narrow spaces within the storage boxes. This effectively utilizes the three-dimensional space of the snack cabinet. The setting of the limiting component ensures that the storage boxes are fixed on the vertical rod, and users can also adjust the height of the storage boxes according to their needs, providing high flexibility.

[0008] Optionally, the limiting component includes a plurality of limiting holes evenly spaced on the vertical rod, an integrally formed mounting plate on the side wall of the storage frame, and limiting posts fixed on the mounting plate. The mounting plate is sleeved on the outside of the vertical rod, and the limiting posts are snapped and fixed on the limiting holes.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the height of the storage frame can be determined according to the needs during use. Then, the storage frame is placed between two vertical bars, and the limiting posts on both sides are engaged in the limiting holes. At this time, the storage frame is stably fixed on the vertical bars, which restricts the position of the storage frame on the vertical bars, thereby improving the installation stability of the storage frame. Users can also flexibly adjust the position of the storage frame and increase or decrease the number of storage frames according to the height or volume of different snacks, thereby achieving efficient use of the snack cabinet space.

[0010] Optionally, the storage frame is assembled from several first rods and second rods, with the second rods disposed on both sides of the first rods, and a connecting block disposed between the first rods and the second rods, the connecting block being disposed at an oblique angle.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when installing the storage frame, the frame is placed between two vertical bars, and then the frame is fixed and limited by the limiting component. The beveled angle of the connecting block can enhance the stability and torsional resistance of the structure, effectively improve the durability of the storage frame, and extend its service life.

[0012] Optionally, a storage base plate is provided between the first rod and the second rod. The storage base plate has through holes on both sides. The vertical rod is installed in the mounting holes, and a rubber strip is provided on the inner wall of the mounting holes.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the rubber strip can reduce wear between the shelf and the vertical rod caused by vibration or impact when installing the shelf, thus extending the service life of the components.

[0014] Optionally, both the horizontal bar and the vertical bar are hollow tubular.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the hollow tubular structure can reduce the amount of material used, thereby reducing production costs. At the same time, it can provide sufficient structural strength and rigidity while maintaining lightweight design, ensuring stability during use.

[0016] Optionally, a handle is provided on the outer side wall of the cabinet door, and anti-slip protrusions are provided on the side wall of the handle.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the handle provides a gripping point for the user, making it easier for the user to push and pull the cabinet door, thus improving the convenience of operation. The anti-slip protrusions also increase the friction between the hand and the handle, improving the stability and safety of operating the cabinet door.

[0018] Optionally, the bottom plate of the storage unit is provided with an anti-slip mat.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-slip mat can increase the friction between the snacks and the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the storage box, effectively preventing the snacks from sliding or shifting in the storage box during the sliding process. At the same time, the anti-slip mat has good waterproof and moisture-proof performance, is easy to clean and maintain, and can keep the inside of the storage box clean.

[0020] Optionally, a magnetic strip is provided on the side of the cabinet body near the cabinet door, and a metal strip is provided on the side of the cabinet door near the crossbar, the metal strip being attracted to the magnetic strip.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the magnetic strip and metal strip attraction setting makes closing the cabinet door easier. Users only need to push the cabinet door to a certain position to make it close, which improves the user experience. It also effectively improves the sealing performance of the cabinet door when it is closed, preventing dust and debris from entering the cabinet, while reducing the moisture of the items inside the cabinet due to air circulation.

[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0023] 1. When in use, install several storage boxes at different heights on the vertical bar according to your needs. Then, store the snacks in the storage boxes according to their categories. When you need to take out the snacks, first pull out the cabinet door. At this time, the slide rail slides out in the direction away from the mounting cavity. Then, turn the cabinet door, the horizontal bar rotates, and the storage box rotates at the same time. Users can easily find the snacks they need and can also easily take out the snacks that were originally located in the corner or narrow position in the storage box. It can effectively utilize the three-dimensional space of the snack cabinet. The setting of the limiting component makes the storage box fixed on the vertical bar. At the same time, users can also adjust the height of the storage box according to their needs, which has a high degree of flexibility.

[0024] 2. When using, determine the installation height of the storage frame according to your needs, then place the storage frame between the two vertical bars, and then snap the limiting posts on both sides into the limiting holes. At this time, the storage frame is stably fixed on the vertical bars, which restricts the position of the storage frame on the vertical bars, thereby improving the installation stability of the storage frame. Users can also flexibly adjust the position of the storage frame and increase or decrease the number of storage frames according to the height or volume of different snacks, thereby achieving efficient use of the snack cabinet space.

[0025] 3. When installing the storage frame, place it between the two vertical bars, and then fix the storage frame with the limiting component. The beveled angle of the connecting block can enhance the stability and torsional resistance of the structure, effectively improve the durability of the storage frame, and extend its service life.

[0032] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0033] This application discloses a rotatable snack cabinet.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 A rotatable snack cabinet includes a cabinet body 1 with an installation cavity 2 inside. A cabinet door 3 is located on the outer side of the cabinet body 1. To enable automatic closing of the cabinet door 3 when pushed to a certain position, this embodiment features a magnetic strip 23 on the side of the cabinet body 1 near the cabinet door 3 and a metal strip 24 on the side of the cabinet door 3 near the crossbar 4. The metal strip 24 can be attracted to the magnetic strip 23, effectively improving the sealing of the cabinet door 3 when closed, preventing dust and debris from entering the cabinet, and reducing moisture absorption of items inside due to air circulation. For easy opening of the cabinet door 3, this embodiment has a handle 20 fixed to the outer wall of the cabinet door 3. The handle 20 provides a gripping point for the user, allowing them to push and pull the cabinet door 3, improving ease of operation. To reduce slippage due to oily hands, this embodiment has anti-slip protrusions 21 on the side wall of the handle 20, increasing friction between the handle 20 and the hand.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Two horizontal bars 4 are provided at both ends of the cabinet door 3. The horizontal bars 4 are perpendicular to the cabinet door 3. Two vertical bars 5 are welded and fixed at both ends of the horizontal bars 4. In order to reduce production costs, the horizontal bars 4 and vertical bars 5 are hollow tubes in this embodiment, which can reduce the amount of material used. While maintaining lightweight, it can also provide sufficient structural strength and rigidity to ensure the stability when the cabinet door 3 is pushed and pulled.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 Several storage frames 6 are arranged between two vertical rods 5. Each storage frame 6 is assembled from several first rods 14 and second rods 15. The second rods 15 are located on both sides of the first rods 14. A connecting block 18 is provided between the first rods 14 and the second rods 15. The connecting block 18 is set at an oblique angle to enhance the stability and torsional resistance of the structure and improve the durability of the storage frame 6. A storage base plate 16 is welded and fixed between the first rods 14 and the second rods 15. An anti-slip pad 22 is provided on the storage base plate 16 to increase the storage space for snacks and the storage frames. The friction between the inner walls of the 6th cavity effectively prevents snacks from sliding or shifting within the storage frame 6 during the sliding process. At the same time, the anti-slip mat 22 has good waterproof and moisture-proof properties, making it easy to clean and maintain, and keeping the inside of the storage frame 6 clean. Mounting holes 17 are provided through on both sides of the storage base plate 16. When the storage frame 6 is installed, the vertical rod 5 is located in the mounting hole 17. Rubber strips 19 are provided on the inner wall of the mounting hole 17 to reduce wear between the storage rack and the vertical rod 5 caused by vibration or impact, and extend the service life of the components.

[0037] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3A limiting component 7 is provided between the vertical rod 5 and the storage frame 6. Users can install the storage frame 6 at different heights on the vertical rod 5 according to their needs. The position of the storage frame 6 and the number of storage frames 6 can be flexibly adjusted according to the height or volume of different snacks to achieve efficient use of the snack cabinet space. The limiting component 7 includes limiting holes 11, mounting plates 12, and limiting posts 13. The limiting holes 11 are evenly spaced on the vertical rod 5 and are set in an oblong shape to facilitate installation and alignment. The mounting plate 12 is integrally formed on the side wall of the storage frame 6. There are two mounting plates 12. The limiting posts 13 are welded and fixed to the mounting plate 12. One end of the limiting post 13 extends into the limiting hole 11 and is snapped and fixed on the limiting hole 11 to achieve stable fixation of the storage frame 6.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 A slide rail 8 is provided at the end of the horizontal bar 4 away from the storage frame 6. The end of the slide rail 8 away from the horizontal bar 4 is fixed to the inner wall of the cabinet 1. When snacks need to be taken out, the cabinet door 3 is pulled outward. At this time, the slide rail 8 slides away from the mounting cavity 2. When the snack cabinet is not needed, the cabinet door 3 is pushed inward. The horizontal bar 4 slides towards the mounting cavity 2. At this time, the storage frame 6 is stored in the mounting cavity 2. This can effectively utilize the three-dimensional space of the snack cabinet and make it convenient for users to take items out of the snack cabinet.

[0039] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 Because the fixed design of the snack cabinet makes it inconvenient for users to reach items located deep inside the cabinet, this embodiment provides a rotating shaft 9 between the crossbar 4 and the slide rail 8. A bearing 10 is fitted around the rotating shaft 9, and the inner ring of the rotating shaft 9 and the bearing 10 are tightly connected. The end of the rotating shaft 9 away from the slide rail 8 is fixed to the crossbar 4. The crossbar 4 rotates on the end face of the slide rail 8 through the bearing 10. The rotation angle of the crossbar 4 is 0-90 degrees. When the handle 20 is pulled to turn the cabinet door 3, the crossbar 4 rotates under the cooperation of the bearing 10 and the rotating shaft 9, and the storage frame 6 also rotates synchronously. At this time, the user can easily find the snacks they need and can also conveniently reach the snacks located in various corners or narrow places in the snack frame.

[0040] The implementation principle of a rotatable snack cabinet in this application embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to take out snacks from the snack cabinet, the user grasps the handle 20 and slowly pulls the cabinet door 3 outward. The slide rail 8 slides outward to the limit position. When it is necessary to take out snacks in the corner, the user can grasp the handle 20 and rotate the cabinet door 3. At this time, the crossbar 4 rotates around the center line of the rotating shaft 9 through the bearing 10, and the storage frame 6 also rotates synchronously. The user can easily take out snacks in narrow positions. When it is necessary to close the cabinet door 3, after rotating the cabinet door 3 to a position perpendicular to the crossbar 4, push the cabinet door 3 towards the mounting cavity 2. At this time, the slide rail 8 also slides horizontally into the mounting cavity 2. When the cabinet door 3 is a certain distance away from the cabinet body 1, the cabinet door 3 can be attracted to the magnetic strip 23 through the metal strip 24. At this time, the snack cabinet enters the mounting cavity 2.
