Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of adjusting connectors, and in particular to an adjusting foot and plate connection structure that is easy to adjust. Background Technology

[0002] Furniture refers to various appliances and equipment used to meet people's needs for living, working, and studying. Most existing furniture consists of cabinets that rest directly on the ground or are supported by floor nails or other hardware. The drawbacks are that the cabinets can tilt or wobble when the ground is uneven, and cabinets in direct contact with the ground are also more susceptible to moisture, such as kitchen cabinets (due to water pipes running underneath), affecting the cabinet's quality. To address this, while adjustable feet have been developed to support the cabinet and adapt to uneven ground, preventing tilting or wobbling, these feet require tilting the cabinet to lift the end with the adjustable foot, making adjustment cumbersome. Furthermore, if a finishing panel needs to be installed at the bottom of the furniture after installing existing adjustable feet, holes need to be drilled in the side panels of the cabinet, and screws inserted through these holes are used to connect and fix the side panels to the end of the finishing panel, making the installation of the finishing panel quite complicated. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an adjustable foot that is easy to adjust and expands.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An adjustable foot that is easy to adjust includes a connector and a support adjustment component;

[0006] One side of the connector is connected to the inside of the side panel of the furniture cabinet, and the other side is provided with an adjustment structure;

[0007] The adjustment structure extends through both its upper and lower ends;

[0008] The top of the support adjustment member is provided with an adjustment part, and the support adjustment member enters the adjustment structure from the lower end of the adjustment structure and is threadedly connected to the adjustment structure.

[0009] In this technical solution, the adjustable feet are connected to the inside of the side panel of the furniture cabinet via connectors and installed at four points on the bottom of the cabinet to support it, preventing direct contact with the ground and reducing the impact of moisture. When the ground is uneven, the extension or retraction of one or more adjustable feet's support adjustment parts can be adjusted (by turning the support adjustment parts) to prevent the furniture cabinet from tilting or wobbling. Adjusting the extension or retraction of the support adjustment parts is simple: just insert the L-shaped handle that matches the adjustment part at the top of the support adjustment part into the adjustment part from above and turn the support adjustment part. This eliminates the need to tilt the furniture cabinet, making adjustment convenient and greatly improving efficiency.

[0010] Furthermore, the part of the connector that connects to the inner side of the furniture cabinet side panel is a plate-like structure, and a positioning post is provided on the side away from the adjustment structure. The positioning post is provided with positioning reinforcement patterns distributed in a circle around its periphery.

[0011] In this technical solution, the adjusting feet are positioned by positioning posts with positioning reinforcement patterns (holes are drilled in the side panel of the furniture cabinet beforehand, and the positioning posts are then inserted into the holes), which can prevent the adjusting feet from shifting after they are installed and connected to the furniture cabinet.

[0012] Furthermore, the positioning posts are distributed vertically;

[0013] The connector has multiple grooves on the side away from the adjustment structure, and these grooves cooperate to form longitudinal and transverse reinforcing ribs located between the positioning columns.

[0014] In this technical solution, by setting grooves, not only can materials be saved, but the resulting longitudinal and transverse reinforcing ribs can also improve the strength of the connectors.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a reinforcing connector, which is a horizontal structure with an "H" shaped vertical cross-section;

[0016] The connector is connected to the adjustment structure via a reinforced connector;

[0017] This technical solution saves materials while ensuring the connection strength between the connectors and the adjustment structure.

[0018] Furthermore, the connector, reinforcing connector, and adjusting structure are integrally formed, which can ensure the integrity and overall strength of the adjusting foot.

[0019] Furthermore, it also includes anti-slip sleeves;

[0020] The bottom of the support adjustment component is provided with a limiting groove in the middle;

[0021] The anti-slip sleeve has a limiting protrusion in the middle. The anti-slip sleeve is fitted onto the bottom of the support adjustment component and is limited by inserting the limiting protrusion into the limiting groove.

[0022] In this technical solution, an anti-slip sleeve is fitted onto the bottom of the support adjustment component to increase the friction between the adjustment foot and the ground. The limiting protrusion of the anti-slip sleeve inserts into the limiting groove, which improves the overall integrity of the adjustment foot and prevents misalignment between the support adjustment component and the anti-slip sleeve.

[0023] Furthermore, the adjustment structure is sleeve-shaped, with internal threads extending from the bottom to the top, ensuring that all parts of the support adjustment member that enter the adjustment structure are tightly connected to the interior of the adjustment structure via the threads, thus guaranteeing the stability of the support adjustment member before and after extension and retraction.

[0024] Furthermore, the adjustment structure is provided with a snap-fit ​​protrusion or a magnetic attraction protrusion, both of which can facilitate the expansion and connection of the adjustment foot.

[0025] Furthermore, this technical solution also includes a panel connection structure, which includes the aforementioned adjusting feet and snap-fit ​​connectors, wherein the snap-fit ​​connectors are disposed on the inner side of the panel perpendicular to the side panel of the furniture cabinet where the adjusting feet are installed;

[0026] The buckle connector has a buckle recess at the end away from the plate;

[0027] The buckle connector connects the side panel of the furniture cabinet to the panel by engaging the buckle recess with the buckle protrusion of the adjusting foot.

[0028] In this technical solution, the panel with the snap-fit ​​connector installed on the inside is conveyed into the furniture cabinet along the horizontal direction (when the snap-fit ​​recess is aligned with the snap-fit ​​protrusion). Once the snap-fit ​​recess and snap-fit ​​protrusion are snapped together, the installation connection of the panel is completed. The installation process is simple and quick.

[0029] Furthermore, the buckle protrusion is provided with a horizontally oriented buckle limiting protrusion;

[0030] The bottom of the buckle recess is provided with a horizontally oriented buckle limiting groove;

[0031] The locking groove and locking protrusion work together to limit the movement and prevent the plate from rotating or shifting after installation.

[0032] Compared with existing technologies, the principles and advantages of this technical solution are as follows:

[0033] Adjustable feet connect to the inside of the furniture cabinet's side panels via connectors, and are installed at four points on the bottom of the cabinet to support it, preventing direct contact with the ground and reducing the impact of moisture. When the floor is uneven, adjust the extension of one or more adjustable feet's support adjustment parts (by turning the support adjustment parts) to prevent the cabinet from tilting or wobbling. To adjust the support adjustment parts, simply insert the L-shaped handle that matches the adjustment part at the top of the support adjustment part into the adjustment part from above and turn it. This eliminates the need to tilt the cabinet, making adjustment simple and efficient.

[0034] A non-slip sleeve is fitted onto the bottom of the support adjustment component to increase the friction between the adjustment foot and the ground. The limiting protrusion of the non-slip sleeve inserts into the limiting groove, which improves the overall integrity of the adjustment foot and prevents misalignment between the support adjustment component and the non-slip sleeve.

[0035] The adjusting foot has a locking protrusion in its adjustment mechanism; the locking connector has a locking recess at its end away from the panel; the locking connector engages with the locking protrusion through the locking recess, thus locking with the adjusting mechanism in the adjusting foot. When installing a panel, the panel with the locking connector installed on its inner side is conveyed into the furniture cabinet along a horizontal direction (when the locking recess is aligned with the locking protrusion). Once the locking recess and locking protrusion are locked, the panel installation is complete, making the installation process simple and quick.

[0036] The buckle protrusion has a horizontally oriented buckle limiting protrusion; the bottom of the buckle recess has a horizontally oriented buckle limiting groove; the buckle limiting groove and the buckle limiting protrusion cooperate to limit the movement and prevent the plate from rotating or shifting after installation.
