The light tubes are hidden under the shelf body 2, which improves the brightness of the countertop and avoids damage to people's eyes.

[0045] This embodiment addresses the technical shortcomings of traditional kitchen storage racks, such as limited functionality, exposed wiring, and cluttered items, through integrated structural design and a three-dimensional wiring system.

[0046] This application adopts a composite integration of power rail 214 and light trough 213, which expands the dual-mode function of power supply and ambient lighting while maintaining the basic storage function. The detachable socket 215 enables flexible power supply for small appliances, solving the problem that traditional shelves only have a single storage function.

[0047] By constructing a three-dimensional wiring network consisting of lamp wire trough 222, concealed wire trough 233 and lead wire trough 242, the power supply line and lighting line are completely hidden inside the profile, thus completely eliminating the safety hazards and visual clutter caused by exposed wires.

[0048] The synergistic design of the translucent shelf panel 211 and the expandable light track 25 ensures storage capacity while providing lighting functionality. The light guides the visually organized display of items such as pots and pans and spice bottles. Its modular structure also allows for adjustment of shelf spacing according to storage needs, avoiding the feeling of spatial oppression caused by stacked items. This shelf achieves enhanced functional integration and increased space utilization within the same volume, making it especially suitable for small kitchens that meet the dual needs of multifunctionality and spatial aesthetics.

[0049] In this embodiment, the lampshade 253 is configured for bidirectional diffusion. In practical applications, it can be replaced with a unidirectional diffusion lampshade 253, which is prior art known to those skilled in the art. This solution will not elaborate further.

[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
