Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dish drainers, and more particularly to a dish drainer. Background Technology

[0002] With social development, the demand for functionality and convenience of kitchen utensils is constantly increasing. As an important tool in the kitchen for placing washed plates and draining water, the role of the dish rack is becoming increasingly important. It can keep the plates dry, prevent the growth of bacteria, and make reasonable use of kitchen space, making the storage of tableware more organized.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN109893069A discloses a dish drainer rack. The structure includes a vertical support column and a horizontal drain shelf mounted on the vertical support column. The horizontal drain shelf and the vertical support column are quickly and detachably connected by screws. The horizontal drain shelf is provided with drainage holes and limiting blocks for positioning the dishes. A dust cover is mounted on the top of the vertical support column. This invention helps improve the stability of the drainer rack, ensuring a constant relative position between the rack and the sink, allowing washing water on the rack to drip smoothly into the sink, maintaining the necessary dryness and cleanliness of the kitchen.

[0004] However, in actual use, the plates are only restrained by the limiting blocks and cannot stand firmly on the drain shelf. This makes the plates easy to tip over, which may not only damage the tableware, but also cause the drained water droplets to splash everywhere, staining the kitchen countertop or floor and increasing the cleaning burden. At the same time, the tipped plates piled up together, which is not conducive to the drainage of water and affects the drainage effect. They may also cause noise due to the tableware colliding with each other. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a dish drainer, the main technical problem to be solved is: to solve the problem that the existing dish drainers cannot fix the standing dishes, resulting in the dishes being easy to tip over, inconvenient to clean, and poor draining effect.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a dish drainer rack, comprising a shell, wherein multiple draining shelves are bolted inside the shell, and multiple clamping components are installed inside the shell, wherein the clamping components are located on top of the draining shelves;

[0007] The clamping assembly includes a mounting box, a sliding groove, a slider, a connecting rod, a clamping plate, a sliding rod, and a connecting frame. Multiple mounting boxes are fixedly connected to the rear end of the housing. The mounting boxes are located at the rear end of the drain shelf. A sliding groove is formed inside each mounting box, and multiple sliders are installed inside the sliding groove. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of each slider. Two clamping plates are fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod away from the slider. A sliding rod is movably installed inside the sliding groove, passing through multiple sliders. A connecting frame is movably installed on the outer wall of the connecting rod, and the multiple connecting frames are movably connected to each other.

[0008] The opposing surfaces of two adjacent clamping discs clamp the plate body.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the sliding rod rotates to drive the slider to move horizontally in the groove. The connecting frame enables multiple sliders to contract or expand synchronously, driving the clamping plate to move, thereby clamping or releasing the plate body and ensuring that the plate stands stably on the drain shelf.

[0010] The right outer wall of the slide rod is provided with an external thread, the rightmost slider is provided with a screw hole corresponding to the external thread, the leftmost slider is fixedly connected to the inside of the slide groove, and the middle sliders are provided with sliding holes corresponding to the slide rod.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: by the threaded engagement between the external thread of the slide bar and the threaded hole of the slider, combined with the fixed fulcrum and the linkage mechanism, the multi-slider synchronous linkage can be achieved to clamp the plate when the slide bar is rotated.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: a throttle is fixedly connected to the right end of the slide rod, and the throttle is located on the outer wall of the mounting box.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the throttle makes it easy to manually rotate the slide bar, which is convenient to operate and improves the adjustment efficiency of the clamping components.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution: a water collection box is slidably installed inside the outer shell, and the water collection box is located at the bottom of multiple drainage layers.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the water collection box can collect the water dripping from the drain shelf, preventing water from dripping directly onto the kitchen countertop or floor, keeping the kitchen clean, and the sliding installation method makes it easy to remove and empty the water.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution: a dust cover is fixedly installed on the top of the outer shell.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the dust cover can prevent dust and debris from falling on the plates, keeping the plates clean, and is especially suitable for dusty kitchen environments.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution: the outer shell, the drainage layer and the clamping plate are all wire mesh structures.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the wire mesh structure has good drainage and ventilation, which speeds up the drying of food trays, while also being lightweight, sturdy and durable.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution: the mesh diameter of the drainage layer and the clamping plate is larger than the mesh diameter of the outer shell.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the larger mesh size allows water to drip quickly into the water collection box, avoiding water accumulation, while the smaller mesh size of the outer shell prevents the plate from accidentally slipping off, thus balancing drainage and safety.

[0022] By employing the above technical solution, the dish drainer of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0023] Compared with existing technologies, this new dish drainer, by setting up a clamping component, allows for stable clamping and fixing of the dish by rotating the handle, which drives the slide rod to rotate. The external thread of the slide rod engages with the screw hole, causing the rightmost slider to move horizontally. The connecting frame pulls the middle slider to retract synchronously, moving the clamping plate towards the center and clamping the dish body between the two clamping plates. This achieves stable clamping and fixing of the dish, preventing it from tipping over or sliding, avoiding damage from collisions and water splashing, and improving the practicality and reliability of the dish drainer.

[0024] Compared with existing technologies, this dish drainer rack features an outer shell, a drain shelf, and a clamping tray. The outer shell, drain shelf, and clamping tray are made of wire mesh, which allows water to drip quickly through the mesh while providing ventilation to accelerate drying, ensure drainage efficiency, keep dishes and the kitchen environment dry, and is lightweight, durable, and easy to clean and maintain.

[0034] Reference Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a dish drainer rack: It includes an outer shell 1, which is a wire mesh structure serving as the overall support frame. Multiple drain shelves 2, also wire mesh structures, are bolted inside the outer shell 1 and used to place dishes and drain water. The bolt installation method facilitates disassembly and cleaning. Multiple clamping components 3 are installed inside the outer shell 1 to secure the dishes and ensure their stable standing. The clamping components 3 are located on top of the drain shelves 2. Each clamping component 3 includes a mounting box 301, a sliding groove 302, a slider 303, a connecting rod 304, a clamping plate 305, a sliding rod (306), and a connecting frame 310. Multiple mounting boxes 301 are fixedly connected to the rear end of the outer shell 1. The mounting boxes 301 are located at the rear end of the drain shelves 2. A sliding groove 302 is provided inside the mounting box 301, providing a sliding track for the slider 303. Multiple sliders 303 are installed internally. The sliders 303 move within the slide groove 302, driving the connecting rod 304 and the clamping plate 305 to move. The connecting rod 304 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the slider 303, connecting the slider 303 and the clamping plate 305 to transmit motion. Two clamping plates 305 are fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 304 away from the slider 303. The clamping plates 305 are wire mesh structures used to clamp the plate body 4. A slide rod 306 is movably installed inside the slide groove 302, passing through multiple sliders 303. The slide rod 306 drives the sliders 303 to move parallel by rotating. A connecting frame 310 is movably installed on the outer wall of the connecting rod 304. Multiple connecting frames 310 are movably connected to each other, and the connecting frames 310 movably connect multiple sliders 303, so that the sliders 303 move synchronously. The opposite faces of two adjacent clamping plates 305 clamp the plate body 4.

[0035] The right outer wall of the slide bar 306 is provided with an external thread 307. The rightmost slider 303 has a screw hole 308 corresponding to the external thread 307 inside. Through the principle of thread transmission, the rotational motion is converted into linear motion. The leftmost slider 303 is fixedly connected to the inside of the slide groove 302 by welding or bolts, serving as a fixed fulcrum and providing a reference for the movement of the middle slider 303. The middle sliders 303 have sliding holes 309 corresponding to the slide bar 306 inside. The slide bar 306 passes through the middle slider 303, only providing a guiding function and not transmitting rotational force.

[0036] A handle 311 is fixedly connected to the right end of the slide bar 306. The handle 311 is used to manually rotate the slide bar 306. The handle 311 is located on the outer wall of the mounting box 301.

[0037] A water collection box 5 is slidably installed inside the outer casing 1. The water collection box 5 is used to collect the drained water. The sliding installation makes it easy to remove and clean. The water collection box 5 is located at the bottom of multiple draining shelves 2.

[0038] A dust cover 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the outer casing 1. The dust cover 6 covers the top of the outer casing 1 to prevent dust from falling in.

[0039] The outer shell 1, the drainage shelf 2, and the clamping plate 305 are all made of wire mesh. The wire material is sturdy and durable, and the mesh structure ensures drainage and ventilation.

[0040] The mesh diameter of the drain plate 2 and the clamping plate 305 is larger than that of the outer shell 1. The larger mesh accelerates drainage, while the smaller mesh ensures safety.

[0041] Working principle: When in use, place the plate body 4 on the drain shelf 2, between the two clamping plates 305, and then rotate the handle 311. The handle 311 drives the slide rod 306 to rotate. The external thread 307 on the outer wall of the slide rod 306 engages with the screw hole 308 on the inner wall of the mounting box 301, causing the rightmost slider 303 to move to the left in the slide groove 302. Since multiple sliders 303 are movably connected through the connecting frame 310, when the rightmost slider 303 moves, it will pull the multiple middle sliders 303 to retract to the left synchronously through the connecting frame 310, thereby driving the connecting rod 304 and the clamping plate 305 to move towards the middle, clamping the plate body 4 between the two clamping plates 305, ensuring that the plate stands stably.

[0042] The drained water drips through the mesh of the drain plate 2 into the water collection box 5. The water collection box 5 can be removed and the water emptied periodically. The dust cover 6 can prevent dust from falling on the plate and keep the plate clean. When the plate needs to be removed, rotate the handle 311 in the opposite direction. The slide bar 306 drives the slider 303 to move to the right, and the clamping plate 305 is released, so the plate can be easily removed.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
