Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drawer technology, and in particular to a tableware storage device. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional cabinets with drawers typically use them to store tableware such as plates, bowls, chopsticks, or spoons. Plates are usually placed flat on the drawer shelves, often stacked one on top of the other. However, this arrangement has several drawbacks: it's difficult for users to retrieve a plate from the bottom, often requiring them to remove the plates above first. Additionally, some drawers have plates placed vertically on the drawer shelves, stacked side-by-side. While this makes it easy to access any plate, it takes up more space, making the drawer's internal structure less compact, and plates can easily interfere with other items (such as trays).
[0003] Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a tableware storage device that is simple in structure, easy to use, compact in layout, has a good user experience, and is highly practical, so as to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] The second storage unit is also provided with a second placement position for placing the second tableware. The first storage unit is movably positioned on the storage body, and the first storage unit is provided with a first placement part. When the first storage unit is in a pending position, the first placement part is located directly above the second placement position. The second tableware is placed on the second placement position in the Y and Z directions.
[0007] The first placement position and the first storage section are staggered.
[0008] The height of the first item is higher than the height of the second piece of tableware when it is placed in the second position.
[0009] The height of the first piece of tableware when placed in the first position is higher than the height of the second piece of tableware when placed in the second position.
[0010] The storage unit is designed to move back and forth. The first set of tableware is placed in the first placement position along the movement direction of the storage unit, and the second set of tableware is placed in the second placement position along the movement direction of the storage unit.
[0011] When the first item moves to the first position, the second placement position and the first placement part are staggered to form a clearance for taking and placing the second tableware.
[0012] The first storage unit is also provided with a second storage part, and the clearance space is located between the first storage part and the second storage part. The first storage position and the second storage part are staggered to the left and right.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] See Figures 1-6 This tableware storage device includes a storage body 1, on which a first placement component 2 and a second placement component 3 are arranged vertically. The second placement component 3 is provided with a first placement position 5 for placing a first tableware 4. The first placement component 2 is provided with a clearance position 6 for avoiding gaps in the first tableware 4, so that the first placement component 2 can avoid gaps in the first tableware 4 placed on the first placement position 5. The first tableware 4 is placed on the first placement position 5 in the Y and Z directions, that is, the first tableware 4 is placed vertically (front and back direction) and vertically (up and down direction) on the first placement position 5, and multiple first tableware 4 are stacked left and right on the first placement position 5.
[0024] The second storage unit 3 is also provided with a second placement position 8 for placing the second tableware 7. The first placement position 5 and the second placement position 8 are arranged in front and behind in sequence. The first storage unit 2 is movably arranged on the storage body 1, and the first storage unit 2 is provided with a first storage part 9. When the first storage unit 2 is in a fixed position, the first storage part 9 is located directly above the second storage position 8. The first placement position 5 and the first storage part 9 are staggered to prevent the first storage part 9 from interfering with the first tableware 4. The above structural layout can make full use of the front, back, top, and bottom space of the storage body 1, making the internal structure of the storage device more compact.
[0025] The second cutlery 7 is placed in the second placement position 8 in the Y and Z directions, that is, the second cutlery 7 is placed in the second placement position 8 in the longitudinal (front and back direction) and vertical (up and down direction) directions, and multiple second cutlery 7 are stacked on the second placement position 8. The placement direction of the second cutlery 7 is the same as the placement direction of the first cutlery 4. The placement method of the second cutlery 7 not only makes it easy for users to take out any of the second cutlery 7, but also prevents the second cutlery 7 from tilting in the front and back direction when the storage device is pulled out or pushed into the cabinet.
[0026] The height of the first storage piece 2 is higher than the height of the second cutlery 7 when it is placed in the second placement position 8, so that the second cutlery 7 can be placed directly below the first storage part 9.
[0027] The height of the first cutlery 4 when placed in the first placement position 5 is higher than the height of the second cutlery 7 when placed in the second placement position 8. The first cutlery 4 is a plate, and the second cutlery 7 is a bowl. The height of the plate is higher than the height of the bowl, and the height of the bowl is smaller, so it can be placed directly below the first placement part 9.
[0028] The storage body 1 is movable on the cabinet (i.e., the storage body 1 can be pulled out of the cabinet or pushed back into the cabinet). The first tableware 4 is placed on the first placement position 5 along the movement direction of the storage body 1, and the second tableware 7 is placed on the second placement position 8 along the movement direction of the storage body 1. That is, the placement direction (Y direction) of the first tableware 4 and the second tableware 7 is the same as the movement direction of the storage body 1, thereby preventing the first tableware 4 and the second tableware 7 from tipping over in the front and back directions when the storage body 1 (storage device) is pulled out or pushed into the cabinet.
[0029] When the first placement component 2 moves to the first position A (i.e., the first placement component 2 can be pulled out of the storage body 1), the second placement position 8 and the first placement part 9 are staggered to form a clearance position 10 for taking and putting in the second tableware 7. At this time, the second tableware 7 can be taken and put in through the clearance position 10.
[0030] The first storage unit 2 is also provided with a second storage part 11. The clearance space 6 is located between the first storage part 9 and the second storage part 11. The first placement position 5 and the second storage part 11 are staggered to prevent the second storage part 11 from interacting with the first tableware 4.
[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the second storage section 11 is located on one side of the first storage section 9; or, as... Figure 5 As shown, the second storage section 11 is located on both sides of the first storage section 9; the first storage section 9 and the second storage section 11 are used to place chopsticks or spoons, etc.
[0032] The first placement position 5 is provided with multiple stacked first receiving slots 18, and the first tableware 4 is placed on the first receiving slots 18. The second placement position 8 is provided with multiple stacked second receiving slots 19, and the second tableware 7 is placed on the second receiving slots 19.
[0033] The storage body 1 includes a side plate 12, on which a fixed slide rail 13 is provided. The first item 2 is provided with movable slide rails 14 on both sides. The first item 2 is moved back and forth on the storage body 1 through the sliding cooperation of the movable slide rail 14 and the fixed slide rail 13.
[0034] The main storage unit 1 also includes a base plate 15, a front panel 16 and a back panel 17. The bottom of the second storage component 3 is supported on the base plate 15, and the second storage component 3 is limited between the front panel 16 and the back panel 17.
[0035] The main storage unit 1 is a drawer, which is installed on the cabinet body with front and rear pull-out mechanisms; if the first item 2 is to be pulled out of the main storage unit 1, the drawer must first be pulled out of the cabinet body.
[0036] The first storage component 2 is a storage tray, and the second storage component 3 is a storage rack.
