[0003] After cleaning, containers such as volumetric flasks and Erlenmeyer flasks are inverted on the shelves inside the cabinet to drain. A large amount of residual water flows out under gravity, while a small amount of water droplets on the walls evaporate naturally. However, the accumulated water vapor and droplets inside the cabinet contaminate the shelves and the cabinet itself. Furthermore, the cabinet is highly susceptible to rust, corrosion, and damage in a high-humidity environment, and bacteria and microorganisms can easily multiply inside, further contaminating the containers. Additionally, if multiple shelves are used, waste liquid from containers on the upper shelves can flow to those on the lower shelves, causing cross-contamination. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions of this utility model are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] In existing technology, volumetric flasks and Erlenmeyer flasks are inverted and placed on shelves inside a cabinet to drain water. A large amount of residual water in the vessels flows out under gravity, while a small amount of water droplets clinging to the walls evaporate naturally. The resulting water vapor and droplets accumulate inside the cabinet, contaminating the shelves and the cabinet itself. Furthermore, the cabinet is highly susceptible to rust, corrosion, and damage under prolonged high humidity. Additionally, if multiple shelves are used, waste liquid from vessels on the upper shelves can flow into those on the lower shelves, causing cross-contamination.

[0039] This embodiment 1 provides a waste liquid discharge structure for a dish cabinet, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, including the cabinet, it also includes:

[0040] The first placement plate 1 is located inside the cabinet and has multiple first placement holes 11. Specifically, the first placement plate 1 is located at the top of the cabinet, and each first placement hole 11 can hold a glassware. The multiple first placement holes 11 are evenly arranged and divided into multiple groups, with each group of first placement holes 11 arranged linearly.

[0041] The second placement plate 2 is located below the first placement plate 1 and has multiple second placement holes 22. These second placement holes 22 are staggered with the multiple first placement holes 11. Specifically, each second placement hole 22 can hold a glass vessel. The multiple second placement holes 22 are evenly arranged and divided into multiple groups. Each group of first placement holes 11 is linearly arranged, and each group of first placement holes 11 is staggered with each group of second placement holes 22. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0042] The water channel 3 is configured on the second placement plate 2 and the bottom of the cabinet, and is used to cooperate with the first placement hole 11 or the second placement hole 22 for drainage;

[0043] Specifically, multiple water inlets 3 are provided. When multiple water inlets 3 are arranged on the second placement plate 2, each water inlet 3 is aligned with the position of each group of first placement holes 11 above it. In addition, each water inlet 3 is arranged along the arrangement direction of each group of first placement holes 11, so that when draining, the water flowing out of the vessel in the same group of first placement holes 11 will flow into the same water inlet 3.

[0044] Similarly, when multiple water inlets 3 are arranged at the bottom of the cabinet, each water inlet 3 is aligned with the position of each group of second placement holes 22 above. In addition, each water inlet 3 is arranged along the arrangement direction of each group of second placement holes 22, so that when draining, the water flowing out of the utensils in the same group of second placement holes 22 will flow into the same water inlet 3.

[0045] Drainage channel 4, located on one side of the cabinet and corresponding to the water inlet trough 3, is used to discharge waste liquid outside the cabinet. Specifically, drainage channel 4 transfers water from the water inlet trough 3 to the outside of the cabinet for discharge, thereby reducing water accumulation inside the cabinet.

[0046] The working process of this embodiment is as follows: the first placement hole 11 and the second placement hole 22 on the adjacent first placement plate 1 and second placement plate 2 are staggered. The water channel 3 is directly opposite the position of the first placement hole 11 or the second placement hole 22 above. So when the vessel is inverted to drain water, the water flowing out of the vessel enters the water channel 3, and the water channel 3 is discharged from the cabinet through the drainage channel 4.

[0047] Furthermore, at least one second placement plate 2 is provided, and the second placement holes 22 of adjacent second placement plates 2 are staggered. In this embodiment, the placement capacity inside the cabinet is expanded by increasing the number of second placement plates 2. In order not to affect the normal discharge of waste liquid inside the cabinet, the second placement holes 22 on adjacent second placement plates 2 are also staggered, thereby ensuring that drainage and placement are separated independently.

[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the water inlet trough 3 is inclined, and the inclined lower end of the water inlet trough 3 is connected to the corresponding drainage channel 4. Specifically, after the waste liquid flowing down from the vessel enters the water inlet trough 3, in order to control the flow direction of the waste liquid, this embodiment arranges the water inlet trough 3 at an inclination, and the waste liquid flows along the inclined lower end of the water inlet trough 3 to enter the corresponding drainage channel 4.

[0049] To further reduce corrosion inside the cabinet, both the first placement plate 1 and the second placement plate 2 are made of corrosion-resistant materials. Currently, the first placement plate 1 and the second placement plate 2 are made of steel plates, which are prone to rusting in high humidity environments. Replacing them with materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene or engineering plastics can increase the corrosion resistance of the first placement plate 1 and the second placement plate 2.

[0050] Example 2

[0051] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 4 As shown, the drainage channel 4 includes a square through pipe 41 and a bent conduit 42.

[0052] The square tube 41 is connected to one end of the second placement plate 2 or one end of the bottom of the cabinet;

[0053] One end of the bent conduit 42 is connected to the square pipe 41, and the other end extends out of the cabinet and discharges the waste liquid.

[0054] Specifically, since multiple water inlets 3 are set on the second placement plate 2 and the bottom of the cabinet, in order to collect the waste liquid in a concentrated manner, this embodiment sets up a square pipe 41. The square pipe 41 is connected to one end of the second placement plate 2 or one end of the bottom of the cabinet. The waste liquid in the multiple water inlets 3 flows into the square pipe 41, which facilitates subsequent collection and discharge.

[0055] Additionally, the bent conduit 42 receives the waste liquid from the square tube 41, and the bent conduit 42 eventually opens downwards to discharge the waste liquid.

[0056] Furthermore, a sealing strip 8 is provided between the square pipe 41 and the inner wall of the cabinet. The sealing strip 8 ensures the airtightness of the cabinet interior, preventing dust from entering and contaminating the containers. On the other hand, the sealing strip 8 prevents backflow and seepage of water from the outlet end of the square pipe 41 into the cabinet, thus hindering the discharge of waste liquid.

[0057] Example 3

[0058] Based on Embodiments 1 and 2, this embodiment also provides a waste liquid discharge structure for a utensil cabinet. A waste liquid collection frame 5 is provided on the side of the cabinet near the bent conduit 42, and the waste liquid collection frame 5 is located below the bent conduit 42.

[0059] In this embodiment, the waste liquid collection box can be set at the rear of the cabinet or on the left or right sides of the cabinet, depending on whether it is in conjunction with the water inlet tank to complete the waste liquid discharge.

[0060] By setting up a waste liquid collection box, the waste liquid is discharged outside the cabinet, which not only avoids polluting the ground, but also allows the collected waste liquid to be recycled.

[0061] Furthermore, a handle 7 is provided on one side of the waste liquid collection box 5. When waste liquid accumulates to a certain level, it often needs to be cleaned. In this embodiment, by providing the handle 7, the operator can directly pull the handle 7 to lift the waste liquid collection box 5 for processing.

[0062] Furthermore, to ensure that the waste liquid collection frame 5 corresponds to the position of the bent conduit 42 and to ensure effective collection of waste liquid, a positioning component 6 is provided on one side of the cabinet to position the waste liquid collection frame 5.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the positioning component 6 includes a base 61, a slider 62, and a limiting block 63.

[0064] The base 61 is located on one side of the cabinet. A sliding groove 64 is provided on the top of the base 61. One end of the sliding groove 64 is connected to a limiting groove 65. An elastic protrusion 66 is provided inside the limiting groove 65.

[0065] The slider 62 is mounted on the waste liquid collection frame 5 and slides in conjunction with the chute 64.

[0066] The limiting block 63 is disposed on the side of the slider 62 near the limiting groove 65 and engages with the limiting groove 65.

[0067] Specifically, the slider 62 at the bottom of the waste liquid collection box 5 cooperates with the slide groove 64, so that the waste liquid collection box 5 slides and is positioned in a specific direction. When the limiting block 63 enters the limiting groove 65, the elastic protrusion 66 is compressed and exerts pressure on the limiting block 63. The limiting block 63 is pressed and is not easy to come out. At this time, the waste liquid collection box 5 is limited, thereby completing the positioning work of the waste liquid collection box 5.

[0068] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
