Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cabinet handle technology, and in particular to a concealed cabinet handle and an energy storage device cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] In situations where the enclosure needs to be moved, handles are usually installed on it. For example, residential energy storage devices often use multiple enclosures stacked on top of each other, with heavy battery modules inside. Currently, most handles are standard handles installed on the outside of the enclosure, which are exposed and difficult to coordinate with the enclosure's shape and color scheme, resulting in poor consistency.

[0003] Alternatively, handles can be fabricated using sheet metal processing or aluminum extrusion molding, installed on the outside of the box, and then covered with other cover plates. This installation process is cumbersome. When a second move is needed, the cover plates must be removed before the box can be moved, and the cover plates and fixing bolts must be stored and preserved properly. If they are lost or damaged, they cannot be reinstalled, which is quite inconvenient. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present application provides a concealed cabinet handle and an energy storage device cabinet to solve at least one problem existing in the background art.

[0005] In a first aspect, one embodiment of this application provides a concealed cabinet handle, including a rotating handle, a handle receiving cavity, and a handle mounting part, wherein the handle receiving cavity and the handle mounting part are disposed on the side wall of the cabinet; the handle receiving cavity includes an arc-shaped side wall, two end walls, and a bottom wall, wherein an opening is formed on one side of the bottom wall opposite to the arc-shaped side wall;

[0006] The handle mounting portion is disposed between the bottom wall and the end wall, and includes a first mounting cavity; the rotating handle includes a cover plate and a connecting portion formed on the back of the cover plate, the cover plate being mounted at the opening; the connecting portion includes a first limiting portion, a second limiting portion and a second mounting cavity, the first limiting portion being used to abut or separate from the bottom wall, and the second limiting portion being used to separate or abut from the bottom wall;

[0007] The handle mounting part and the connecting part are rotatably connected by a connecting rod, which passes through both the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity.

[0008] In conjunction with the first aspect of this application, in an optional embodiment, a torsion spring is provided in the first mounting cavity above the connecting rod.

[0009] In conjunction with the first aspect of this application, in an optional embodiment, both the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity include a torsion spring receiving cavity and a torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity, respectively for accommodating the spring and torsion arm of the torsion spring.

[0010] In conjunction with the first aspect of this application, in an optional embodiment, a sealing ring is fitted onto the connecting rod, and the first mounting cavity further includes a sealing ring receiving cavity for accommodating the sealing ring.

[0011] In conjunction with the first aspect of this application, in an alternative embodiment, the bottom wall and the side wall of the housing are integrally formed.

[0012] In conjunction with the first aspect of this application, in an optional embodiment, the handle mounting portion includes a first handle mounting portion and a second handle mounting portion, wherein the first handle mounting portion is disposed between a first end wall and a bottom wall, and the second handle mounting portion is disposed between a second end wall and a bottom wall.

[0013] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide an energy storage device housing, including the concealed housing handle described in any of the above aspects.

[0014] The concealed handle and energy storage device housing provided in this application embodiment allow the rotating handle to switch between handling and non-handling states. In the non-handling state, the cover plate of the rotating handle precisely blocks the opening of the receiving cavity, thus concealing the handle position. This allows the handle to undergo the same processing technology as the housing, improving the consistency of the housing. In the handling state, a stable handle structure can be formed by pressing the cover plate, eliminating the need for additional installation and disassembly, greatly reducing the number of accessories and improving the convenience of installation.

[0015] Additional aspects and advantages of this application will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of this application. Attached Figure Description

The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.

[0027] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in this application may be used to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are used only to distinguish one element from another, and not to describe a specific order or sequence. The terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, not excluding the presence or addition of one or more other features.

[0028] This application provides a concealed cabinet handle, see reference. Figure 1-8 It includes a rotating handle 50, a handle receiving cavity 101, and a handle mounting part 103. The handle receiving cavity 101 and the handle mounting part 103 are disposed on the side wall of the housing 10.

[0029] like Figure 2As shown, a portion of the side wall of the housing 10 is recessed inward to form an outwardly opening handle receiving cavity, which is approximately semi-cylindrical. The handle receiving cavity includes an arc-shaped side wall 101, two end walls 102 at both ends of the arc-shaped side wall, and a bottom wall 104. An opening opposite to the arc-shaped side wall 101 is formed on one side of the bottom wall. The bottom wall 104 is integral with the side wall 105 of the housing 10. A handle mounting part 103 is disposed on the end wall 102 and the bottom wall 104 for mounting the rotating handle 50 to the housing 10. Optionally, there may be one or two handle mounting parts 103, disposed between the bottom wall and the end wall. Figure 2 The illustration shows a two-handle configuration for force balance during container handling. A first handle mounting portion is disposed between the first end wall and the bottom wall, and a second handle mounting portion is disposed between the second end wall and the bottom wall. The handle mounting portion 103 includes a first mounting cavity and is disposed along the length of the handle mounting portion 103.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the rotary handle 50 includes a cover plate 501 and a connecting portion 502 formed on the back of the cover plate 501. The connecting portion 502 is generally triangular prism-shaped. It includes a first limiting portion 5021, a second limiting portion 5022, and a second mounting cavity. The first limiting portion 5021 is used to abut or separate from the bottom wall 104. The second limiting portion 5022 is used to separate from or abut from the bottom wall 104. The second mounting cavity is provided along the length direction of the handle mounting portion 103. The handle mounting portion 103 and the connecting portion 502 are rotatably connected by a connecting rod 20, which passes through both the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity. In this way, the rotary handle 50 is rotatably mounted on the housing 10. After installation, the connecting rod, the first mounting cavity, and the second mounting cavity are parallel to the side wall of the housing. The rotary handle 50 rotates around the connecting rod.

[0031] Optionally, a torsion spring is provided in the first mounting cavity above the connecting rod. The torsion spring provides a restoring force to the rotary handle 50, ensuring that the cover 501 of the rotary handle 50 precisely covers the opening of the handle receiving cavity when the housing is not in a handling state. Figure 3 As shown, the torsion spring 40 includes a spring body 401 and torsion arms 402 at both ends. The torsion spring 40 is a non-closely wound spring with a pitch, and can be compressed.

[0032] Optionally, both the first and second mounting cavities include a torsion spring receiving cavity and a torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity, respectively used to accommodate the spring and torsion arm of the torsion spring. The first mounting cavity includes a first torsion spring receiving cavity 1033 and a first torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity 1034. The second mounting cavity includes a second torsion spring receiving cavity 5024 and a second torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity 5025. The torsion spring receiving cavity 1033 is used to accommodate the spring body 401. The torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity 1034 is used to accommodate the torsion arm 402. Optionally, a sealing ring 30 is sleeved on the connecting rod, and the first mounting cavity also includes a sealing ring receiving cavity 1031 for accommodating the sealing ring 30. The sealing ring 30 can play a role in waterproof sealing. The connecting rod has a through hole 1032. The second torsion spring receiving cavity 5024 is provided with an internal thread 5023 for fixing the connecting rod 20. Optionally, the connecting rod 20 includes screws, bolts, pins, or rivets, etc.

[0033] During installation, place the connecting part 502 of the rotating handle 50 between the two handle mounting parts 103, aligning the first mounting cavity and the second mounting cavity; compress the torsion spring 40 and place it in the first torsion spring receiving cavity 1033 and the second torsion spring receiving cavity 5024, and place the torsion arm 402 in the first torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity 1034 and the second torsion spring torsion arm receiving cavity 5025 respectively; make the screw or bolt 20 pass through the first mounting cavity, the torsion spring 40 and the second mounting cavity simultaneously, and fix it with the internal thread 5023.

[0034] The usage process of the concealed cabinet handle in this embodiment is as follows:

[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, when the box is not in a transportable state, the elastic force of the torsion spring 40 will force the first limiting part 5021 of the rotating part 502 on the rotating handle 50 to press against the bottom wall 104. At this time, the cover plate 501 is flush with the outside of the box, which just blocks the opening of the receiving cavity.

[0036] When the box needs to be moved, press the cover plate 501 with your finger, and the rotating handle 50 will rotate along the screw or bolt 20 inside the rotating handle receiving cavity 101 until the second limiting part 5022 of the rotating part on the rotating handle 50 is tightly against the side wall 105 of the box. Figure 7 As shown. At this time, the second limiting part 5022 of the connecting part 502 of the rotating handle 50 is in contact with the bottom wall 104, so that the cover plate 501 and the box body form a stable structure, which facilitates the gripping and force application of the hand. The side wall of the box body 10 is directly subjected to force, lifting the box body. When the handling is finished and the fingers are removed, the elastic force of the torsion spring 40 will force the rotating handle 50 to rotate in the opposite direction along the fixing bolt 20 until the first limiting part 5021 of the rotating part 502 is in close contact with the side wall 105 of the box body, so that the cover plate 501 is flush with the outside of the box body.

[0037] The concealed case handle of this application embodiment adopts an internally pressurized rotatable structure, which allows the rotatable handle to switch between handling and non-handling states. In the non-handling state, the cover plate 501 of the rotatable handle precisely covers the opening of the receiving cavity, which can hide the handle position, so that the handle can be processed with the same process as the case, improving the consistency of the case. In the handling state, by pressing the cover plate 501, it forms a stable handle structure with the side wall of the case, which is convenient for the hand to grip and apply force. No additional installation or disassembly is required, which greatly reduces the number of accessories and improves the convenience of installation.

[0038] This application also provides an energy storage device housing, such as... Figure 4 As shown, it includes the concealed cabinet handle of the above embodiment.

[0039] The relevant content of each unit in this embodiment can be referred to the relevant content of the units with the same reference numerals in any of the foregoing embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0040] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0041] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
