Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of steam cabinet technology, specifically an electric steam cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Car radiators, also known as water tanks, are part of the car's cooling system and function to cool and regulate the engine temperature. In passenger cars, the radiator core is typically made of aluminum, while the water chamber is an injection-molded part, sealed together with a sealing strip.

[0003] Typically, injection molded parts with water chambers need to be placed in an electric steamer after injection molding. This is because during the manufacturing process, the plastic parts may develop internal stress due to uneven cooling or different molding methods. The high temperature and high humidity environment provided by the electric steamer allows the injection molded parts to absorb a certain amount of moisture, which helps the plastic material release these internal stresses and thus improves its toughness.

[0004] CN222048476U discloses a water-absorbing steam cabinet, including a cabinet body, a first air inlet pipe for introducing steam, and a first exhaust pipe. The cabinet body is provided with a receiving chamber for placing items to be dried. The cabinet body is provided with a second exhaust pipe. The first air inlet pipe is connected to the cabinet body. One end of the first exhaust pipe is connected to the first air inlet pipe, and the other end is fixed to the bottom of the receiving chamber. The cabinet body also includes a second air inlet pipe, which is connected to the cabinet body. One end of the second air inlet pipe is connected to the receiving chamber.

[0005] The above technical solution states in paragraph 0019 of the specification that "a single cabinet door 5 would be quite heavy. Dividing the cabinet door 5 into two can reduce the weight of each door and make operation easier." However, the specific method of opening the cabinet door is not disclosed. As can be seen from the attached drawings of the above technical solution, the above technical solution may be a double-opening method or a horizontal sliding method. However, in both of these methods, the operator needs to be close to the cabinet door to operate, and the steam when opening the door can easily burn the operator. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] refer to Figures 1-2 An electric steamer includes a cabinet body 1, an upper door 2 and a lower door 3 hinged to one end of the cabinet body 1, and a first traction mechanism 4 and a second traction mechanism 5. A fixed frame 13 is provided on the cabinet body 1. The first traction mechanism 4 and the second traction mechanism 5 are both connected to the fixed frame 13. The first traction mechanism 4 is connected to the free end of the upper door 2; the second traction mechanism 5 is connected to the free end of the lower door 3.

[0026] The first traction mechanism 4 and the second traction mechanism 5 are used to open one end of the cabinet 1, or to overlap the free end of the upper door 2 and the free end of the lower door 3 to close one end of the cabinet 1.

[0027] The cabinet 1 is provided with a first locking member 11 for locking the upper door 2 and a second locking member 12 for locking the lower door 3.

[0028] This embodiment uses a radiator water chamber as an example for illustration, but this electric steamer is not limited to radiator water chambers; it is also applicable to other plastic parts that need to absorb water.

[0029] It should also be noted that the cabinet 1 can be referenced to the water-absorbing steamer disclosed in Chinese Patent CN222048476U. This embodiment can be understood as an improvement on the cabinet door of that solution. In terms of function, the cabinet 1 in this embodiment is the same as the cabinet 1 in that solution, and its purpose is to provide a high temperature and high humidity environment for the water chamber.

[0030] Under this design, the operator puts the water chamber into the cabinet 1, which can be done manually or by using a forklift. Then the operator drives the first traction mechanism 4 and the second traction mechanism 5 one by one, so that the upper door 2 and the lower door 3 swing to the closed state. The operator locks the upper door 2 and the lower door 3 in sequence according to the overlapping relationship between the free ends of the upper door 2 and the free ends of the lower door 3.

[0031] Specifically, if the upper door 2 overlaps with the outer side of the lower door 3, after the lower door 3 is driven to the closed state by the second traction mechanism 5, the operator can lock the lower door 3 by the first locking member 11, and then drive the upper door 2 to the closed state by the first traction mechanism 4, and the operator can lock the upper door 2 by the second locking member 12; otherwise, the operation is reversed.

[0032] After the water chamber has finished absorbing water, the operator opens the outer door according to the overlapping relationship. Taking the upper door 2 as an example, the operator first releases the locking relationship between the upper door 2 and the lower door 3, and drives the upper door 2 to swing to the open state through the first traction mechanism 4, and drives the lower door 3 to swing to the open state through the second traction mechanism 5, thus completing the opening of the upper door 2 and the lower door 3.

[0033] In this way, when opening the door, only the first locking part 11 and the second locking part 12 need to be manually released to move away from the upper door body 2 and the lower door body 3 to complete the opening operation, avoiding the operator being scalded by steam when opening the door. At the same time, the setting of the lower door body 3 can also provide a slope for the material to enter and exit the cabinet 1.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first traction mechanism 4 is a first electric hoist, the first electric hoist is provided with a first rope 41, the upper door body 2 is provided with a first connecting ring 21, the first rope 41 is connected to the first connecting ring 21, and in the projection on the horizontal plane, the vertical distance between the first electric hoist and the cabinet body 1 is greater than the width of the upper door body 2.

[0035] Furthermore, the second traction mechanism 5 is a second electric hoist, on which a second rope 51 is provided, and a second connecting ring 31 is provided on the lower door body 3. A pulley 52 is provided on the cabinet body 1, and the second electric hoist is located above the pulley 52. ​​The second rope 51 passes around the pulley 52 and is connected to the second connecting ring 31.

[0036] Specifically, because the upper door 2 is hinged to the upper part of one end of the cabinet 1, the first electric hoist will swing the upper door 2 to the closed state by pulling it downwards, and then swing it to the open state by pulling it downwards. The lower door 3 is the opposite. Because the lower door 3 is hinged to the lower part of one end of the cabinet 1, the second electric hoist will swing the lower door 3 to the closed state by pulling it downwards, and then swing it to the open state by pulling it downwards. When pulling the lower door 3, it is also necessary to change the direction of pulling to ensure that the lower door 3 can accurately fit against one end of the cabinet 1. Therefore, a pulley 52 is also provided on the cabinet 1 to guide the change of the direction of pulling.

[0037] Implicitly, both the first and second electric hoists are equipped with fall arresters. The fall arrester of the first electric hoist is connected to the first connecting ring 21; the fall arrester of the second electric hoist is connected to the second connecting ring 31.

[0038] In this embodiment, a first transition plate 6 is also included. The first transition plate 6 is hinged to the inside of the lower door 3. When the lower door 3 is opened, the first transition plate 6 is used to cover the gap between the lower door 3 and the cabinet 1.

[0039] In practical use, because one end of the first transition plate 6 is hinged to the inside of the lower door 3, when the lower door 3 swings to the closed state, the state of the first transition plate 6 will not change much, but it will move into the cabinet 1. When the lower door 3 swings to the open state, the first transition plate 6 will also move away from the cabinet 1 along with the swing of the lower door 3 until the free end of the lower door 3 contacts the ground. At this point, the first transition plate 6 just covers the gap between the lower door 3 and the cabinet 1, which facilitates forklift movement and improves safety when handled manually.

[0040] Furthermore, it also includes a second transition plate 7, which is hinged to the inside of the lower door body 3. When the lower door body 3 is opened, the second transition plate 7 is used to transition between a ground and the free end of the lower door body 3.

[0041] Specifically, the opening method of the second transition plate 7 is different from that of the first transition plate 6. If the first transition plate 6 is in the open state, the second transition plate 7 will swing towards the cabinet 1 due to the change in the center of gravity during the swing of the lower door 3 to the closed state, and will automatically retract. However, during the swing of the lower door 3 to the open state, the second transition plate 7 needs to be opened manually so that both the second transition plate 7 and the lower door 3 are in contact with the ground. The lower door 3 is then connected to the ground through the second transition plate 7, which also facilitates forklift movement and improves the safety of manual handling.

[0042] In this embodiment, the free end of the upper door 2 is provided with a sealing plate 22. When the upper door 2 and the lower door 3 close the cabinet 1, the sealing plate 22 and the free end of the lower door 3 come into contact and overlap.

[0043] In actual use, the sealing plate 22 of the upper door body 2 plays the role of overlapping the upper door body 2 and the lower door body 3 as mentioned above, which means improving the sealing performance of the upper door body 2 and the lower door body 3 when closed.

[0044] Implicitly, sealing components can also be installed on the upper door body 2 and the lower door body 3 to improve sealing performance.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the first locking member 11 is a first bolt lock, which is installed on the upper door body 2, and a first connecting pipe 111 matching the first bolt lock is provided on the cabinet body 1; the second locking member 12 is a second bolt lock, which is installed on the cabinet body 1, and a second connecting pipe matching the second bolt lock is provided on the lower door body 3 (not shown in the figure).

[0046] In practical use, this locking method is not only convenient, but also simple in structure and low in cost. The operator only needs to pull the first pin lock to insert the pin on the first pin lock into the first connecting tube 111 to achieve locking. When disassembling, simply pull the first pin lock away from the first connecting tube 111. The operation of the second pin lock and the second connecting tube is exactly the same as that of the first connecting tube 111. Therefore, the operation of the second pin lock and the second connecting tube will not be explained in detail in this embodiment.

[0047] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements or modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this application, and these improvements or modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
