Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of balcony hanging cabinet technology, specifically to an adjustable balcony hanging cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Most balcony wall cabinet shelf adjustment mechanisms on the market currently adopt a vertical lifting design. This type of structure requires frequent lifting of the shelf during adjustment, which is laborious and makes it difficult to accurately control the horizontal position. Especially when storing long and narrow tools, such as mops, brooms, and long-handled brushes, the shelves often symmetrically divide the space inside the cabinet, making it impossible to place long and narrow objects vertically. These objects are prone to tipping over under the influence of gravity, thus occupying the entire space. At the same time, when adding new tools, such as new long-handled spray bottles or folding clothes racks, the fixed spacing may not be able to adapt to their shape.

[0003] Some wall cabinets with horizontal adjustment functions have rudimentary sliding rail guide structures, making it easy for shelves to shift or get stuck when sliding. They also lack reliable horizontal limit devices, which means that even after the shelves are fixed, there is still a risk of left and right swaying. In addition, wooden cabinets are prone to deformation in the humid environment of balconies, causing the horizontal adjustment rails to jam and fail, thus failing to meet users' needs for convenience and durability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem in existing technology where adjustable partitions lack reliable horizontal limiting devices, leading to the risk of left-right swaying even after the partitions are fixed, by providing an adjustable balcony hanging cabinet.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: an adjustable balcony hanging cabinet, including a cabinet body, an adjustable partition component, a limiting component, and a door panel hinged to the cabinet body;

[0006] The cabinet includes a back panel, side panels, a top panel, and a bottom panel. The back panel, side panels, top panel, and bottom panel are connected by metal angle brackets and bolts, and sealed with structural adhesive to form a closed cabinet frame.

[0007] The cabinet body, adjustable partition components, limiting components, and door panels work together to form a stable and flexibly adjustable storage space. The back panel, side panels, top panel, and bottom panel are connected by mortise and tenon joints and snap-fit ​​fasteners to form a closed cabinet frame, ensuring the overall strength and stability of the cabinet.

[0008] The partition assembly includes at least one slide rail, a slider, and a partition. The slide rail is installed on the front side of the cabinet back panel, the slider is slidably connected inside the slide rail, and the partition is installed on the end face of the slider that extends out of the slide rail.

[0009] The partition component enables adjustable sliding of the partition. By installing the partition on the slider, the partition can drive the slider to move freely within the slide rail, thereby adjusting the position of the partition and dividing the space inside the cabinet. This allows users to adjust the partition according to the width of the objects placed inside. At the same time, the partition can support the objects placed inside, preventing them from tipping over and taking up space in the entire cabinet.

[0010] The limiting component includes a magnetic strip, a metal block, and an elastic drive unit. The magnetic strip is installed on the inner wall of the bottom plate along the width direction of the cabinet. The elastic drive unit is installed near the bottom of the partition. The metal block is installed at the bottom of the elastic drive unit and is attracted to the magnetic strip.

[0011] The limiting component fixes the partition by magnetic strips adsorbing onto a metal block. When the user needs to adjust the position of the partition, the magnetic strips can be separated from the metal block, thus moving the partition. Once the partition has moved to the designated position, the metal block and the magnet are attracted together, thereby fixing the partition. At the same time, the magnetic strips can also attract and fix other placed metal objects.

[0012] The elastic drive unit includes a pull rod, a stop block, and a spring. The partition has a vertically extending mounting groove inside. The stop block is fixed in the middle of the mounting groove. The stop block has a through hole adapted to the pull rod. The lower end of the pull rod passes through the through hole and is fixed to the top of the metal block. The spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pull rod and located between the stop block and the metal block. The front side of the partition has a vertical sliding groove that communicates with the mounting groove. The upper end of the pull rod extends from the sliding groove to the outside of the partition to form an operating part.

[0013] Pulling the operating unit moves the lever upward, which in turn moves the metal block upward, separating it from the magnetic strip. This weakens the magnetic force between the metal block and the magnetic strip, making it easier to adjust the position of the partition. As the metal block moves upward, it compresses the spring, allowing the spring to accumulate elastic potential energy. Once the partition is in the correct position, releasing the operating unit allows the metal block to move downward under the influence of spring deformation recovery, gravity, and the magnetic force of the magnetic strip, eventually attracting the metal block and thus positioning the partition.

[0014] The bottom of the partition has a placement groove that communicates with the mounting groove, and the metal block is located in the placement groove. This design allows the metal block to be stored in the placement groove when not in use, avoiding protrusion that may affect the storage of items or cause bumps. At the same time, it ensures the accuracy and stability of the position of the metal block when it is attracted to the magnetic strip, making the entire limiting structure more compact and reasonable, and improving the safety and aesthetics of the balcony hanging cabinet.

[0015] The top and bottom of the partition are respectively fitted to the inner sides of the top and bottom plates. This fitted design enhances the stability of the partition within the cabinet, preventing it from wobbling or tilting when storing items, ensuring the safety of stored items, and also making fuller and more rational use of the cabinet's internal space, thus improving storage efficiency.

[0016] The rear side of the partition is fitted against the front side of the back panel. This fitted design also enhances the stability of the partition when it moves or is fixed within the cabinet.

[0017] The slide rails are arranged in pairs, parallel to each other. This forms a stable double-rail support structure, which, compared to a single slide rail, can evenly bear the weight of the partition and the items, reducing uneven stress and swaying of the partition, improving the smoothness and reliability of the partition's sliding, making the partition adjustment process smoother, and also extending the service life of the slide rails and the partition.

[0018] The back panel has an embedded groove on its front side, and the slide rail is embedded in the embedded groove. This embedded installation method makes the slide rail flush with the surface of the back panel, reducing protruding structures inside the cabinet. On the one hand, it makes the internal space of the cabinet more regular, making it easier to store and organize items. On the other hand, it also avoids damage to the slide rail from collisions, improving the overall aesthetics and durability of the cabinet.

[0019] The cabinet is made entirely of aluminum honeycomb material. It boasts advantages such as light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance. Compared to traditional materials, it reduces the overall weight of the cabinet, facilitating handling and installation; simultaneously, its high strength ensures structural stability and load-bearing capacity, enabling it to withstand the storage of heavier items; and its corrosion resistance allows the cabinet to maintain good performance in various environments, extending its service life.

[0020] The cabinet also includes a storage panel installed at the bottom of the base plate. The front end of the storage panel has a snap-fit ​​track, within which one or more of the following can be fitted: storage boxes, shelves, and cup holders. The track can accommodate various accessories such as storage boxes, shelves, and cup holders, increasing the cabinet's functionality and expandability. Users can flexibly install different accessories according to their actual needs, classifying and organizing items, improving storage space utilization and ease of use, and enabling the balcony wall cabinet to adapt to different usage scenarios and needs.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] 1. This adjustable balcony wall cabinet uses a combination of double-rail parallel slide rails and sliders to achieve stable horizontal sliding of the shelves. With the adsorption and limiting of magnetic strips and metal blocks, the horizontal position of the shelves can be accurately positioned, solving the problem of uneven space distribution in traditional vertical adjustment structures. It is especially suitable for the classified storage of long and narrow items.

[0023] 2. This adjustable balcony cabinet, by setting an elastic drive unit inside the partition, can separate the metal block from the magnetic strip by pulling the operating part, thereby releasing the magnetic strip from the metal block. This allows the magnetic strip to be released from the magnetic strip without lifting the partition during horizontal adjustment, and the horizontal movement of the partition can be completed with one hand.

[0024] 3. This adjustable balcony wall cabinet combines the design of the slide rail embedded in the back panel with the all-aluminum honeycomb material cabinet body, reducing structural redundancy and space occupation. During the horizontal adjustment process, the partition always fits against the top and bottom panels, realizing three-dimensional and efficient utilization of the internal space of the cabinet.

[0025] 4. This adjustable balcony wall cabinet features a storage panel at the bottom of the cabinet base. The panel has snap-fit ​​tracks that can hold various accessories such as storage boxes, shelves, and cup holders. This design increases the cabinet's functionality and expandability. Users can flexibly install different accessories according to their needs, categorizing and organizing items, improving storage space utilization and ease of use, making the balcony wall cabinet adaptable to different usage scenarios and requirements.

[0031] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 An adjustable balcony cabinet in this embodiment includes a cabinet body 1, an adjustable partition component 2, a limiting component 3, and a door panel 4 hinged to the cabinet body 1.

[0033] The cabinet 1 includes a back panel 11, a side panel 12, a top panel 13, and a bottom panel 14. The back panel 11, side panel 12, top panel 13, and bottom panel 14 are connected by metal angle brackets and bolts, and are sealed with structural adhesive to form a closed cabinet 1 frame.

[0034] The cabinet body 1, adjustable partition components 2, limiting components 3, and door panels 4 work together to form a stable and flexibly adjustable storage space. The back panel 11, side panels 12, top panel 13, and bottom panel 14 are connected by mortise and tenon joints and snap fasteners to form a closed cabinet body 1 frame, ensuring the overall strength and stability of the cabinet body 1.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The partition component 2 includes at least one slide rail 21, a slider 22 and a partition 23. The slide rail 21 is installed on the front side of the back panel 11 of the cabinet 1. The slider 22 is slidably connected inside the slide rail 21. The partition 23 is installed on the end face of the slider 22 that extends out of the slide rail 21.

[0036] The partition component 2 enables the adjustable sliding of the partition 23. By installing the partition 23 on the slider 22, the partition 23 can drive the slider 22 to move freely within the slide rail 21, thereby adjusting the position of the partition 23 and dividing the space inside the cabinet 1. This allows users to adjust the partition according to the width of the objects placed inside. At the same time, the partition 23 can support the placed objects to prevent them from tipping over and taking up space in the entire cabinet.

[0037] Please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The limiting component 3 includes a magnetic strip 31, a metal block 32 and an elastic drive unit 33. The magnetic strip 31 is installed on the inner wall of the bottom plate 14 along the width direction of the cabinet 1. The elastic drive unit 33 is installed near the bottom of the partition 23. The metal block 32 is installed at the bottom of the elastic drive unit 33 and is attracted to the magnetic strip 31.

[0038] The limiting component 3 fixes the partition 23 by adsorbing the magnetic strip 31 and the metal block 32. When the user needs to adjust the position of the partition 23, the magnetic strip 31 and the metal block 32 can be separated to move the partition 23. When the partition 23 is moved to the designated position, the metal block 32 is attracted to the magnet, thereby fixing the partition 23. At the same time, the magnetic strip 31 can attract and fix other placed metal objects.

[0039] The elastic drive unit 33 includes a pull rod 331, a stop block 332, and a spring 333. The partition plate 23 has a vertically extending mounting groove inside. The stop block 332 is fixed in the middle of the mounting groove. The stop block 332 has a through hole that matches the pull rod 331. The lower end of the pull rod 331 passes through the through hole and is fixed to the top of the metal block 32. The spring 333 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pull rod 331 and is located between the stop block 332 and the metal block 32. The front side of the partition plate 23 has a vertical sliding groove that communicates with the mounting groove. The upper end of the pull rod 331 extends from the sliding groove to the outside of the partition plate 23 to form an operating part 334.

[0040] Pulling the operating part 334 can move the pull rod 331 upward. The upward movement of the pull rod 331 can move the metal block 32 upward, thereby separating the metal block 32 from the magnetic strip 31. The magnetic force between the metal block 32 and the magnetic strip 31 is weakened, making it easier to adjust the position of the partition 23. As the metal block 32 moves upward, it can compress the spring 333, thereby accumulating elastic potential energy in the spring 333. When the partition 23 moves to the appropriate position, the operating part 334 is released, so that the metal block 32 can move downward under the action of the spring 333 deformation recovery, gravity, and the magnetic force of the magnetic strip 31, and finally attract together with the magnetic strip 31, thus achieving the positioning of the partition 23.

[0041] The bottom of the partition 23 has a placement groove that communicates with the mounting groove, and the metal block 32 is located in the placement groove. This design allows the metal block 32 to be stored in the placement groove when not in use, avoiding protrusion that may affect the storage of items or cause bumps. At the same time, it ensures the accuracy and stability of the position of the metal block 32 when it is attracted to the magnetic strip 31, making the entire limiting structure more compact and reasonable, and improving the safety and aesthetics of the balcony cabinet.

[0042] The top and bottom of the partition 23 are respectively attached to the inner side of the top plate 13 and the inner side of the bottom plate 14. This attachment design enhances the stability of the partition 23 in the cabinet 1, prevents the partition 23 from shaking or tilting when storing items, ensures the safety of the stored items, and also makes fuller and more reasonable use of the internal space of the cabinet 1, thus improving storage efficiency.

[0043] The rear side of the partition 23 is fitted against the front side of the back panel 11. This fitting design also enhances the stability of the partition 23 when it moves and is fixed in the cabinet 1.

[0044] The slide rails 21 are arranged in pairs, with the two slide rails 21 arranged parallel to each other vertically. This forms a stable double-rail support structure, which, compared to a single slide rail 21, can evenly bear the weight of the partition 23 and the items, reducing uneven stress and swaying of the partition 23, improving the smoothness and reliability of the sliding of the partition 23, making the adjustment of the partition 23 smoother, and also extending the service life of the slide rails 21 and the partition 23.

[0045] The back panel 11 has an embedded groove on its front side, and the slide rail 21 is embedded in the embedded groove. This embedded installation method makes the slide rail 21 flush with the surface of the back panel 11, reducing the protruding structure inside the cabinet 1. On the one hand, it makes the internal space of the cabinet 1 more regular, which is convenient for the storage and organization of items. On the other hand, it also avoids the slide rail 21 from being damaged by collision, thus improving the overall aesthetics and durability of the cabinet 1.

[0046] The cabinet body 1 is made of all-aluminum honeycomb material. It has the advantages of being lightweight, high-strength, and corrosion-resistant. Compared with traditional materials, it reduces the overall weight of the cabinet body 1, making it easier to handle and install; at the same time, the high strength ensures the structural stability and load-bearing capacity of the cabinet body 1, enabling it to withstand the storage of heavy items; the corrosion resistance allows the cabinet body 1 to maintain good working condition in different environments, extending its service life.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 1 The cabinet 1 also includes a storage panel 15 installed at the bottom of the base plate 14. The front end of the storage panel 15 has a snap-fit ​​track 5, which can hold one or more of the following: storage boxes 6, shelves 7, and cup holders 8. The track 5 can hold various accessories such as storage boxes 6, shelves 7, and cup holders 8, increasing the functionality and expandability of the cabinet 1. Users can flexibly install different accessories according to their actual needs to classify and organize items, improving the utilization rate of storage space and ease of use, enabling the balcony wall cabinet to adapt to different usage scenarios and needs.

[0048] Working method: When the position of the partition 23 needs to be adjusted, the user pulls the operating part 334 on the front side of the partition 23. The operating part 334 drives the pull rod 331 to move upward, and the pull rod 331 in turn drives the metal block 32 to move upward, so that the metal block 32 separates from the magnetic strip 31 on the inner wall of the base plate 14. At the same time, the compressed spring 333 accumulates elastic potential energy.

[0049] After the metal block 32 separates from the magnetic strip 31, the magnetic force weakens, and the user can easily push the partition 23 to drive the slider 22 to slide in the slide rail 21, and move the partition 23 to the designated position according to the height requirements of the item.

[0050] After the partition 23 is moved to the appropriate position, the operating part 334 is released. The metal block 32 moves downward under the combined action of the spring 333 deformation restoring force, its own gravity, and the magnetic force of the magnetic strip 31, and finally adheres tightly to the magnetic strip 31, thereby achieving the positioning and fixing of the partition 23.

[0051] After the partition 23 is fixed, the user can store items on the partition 23. Since the top of the partition 23 is attached to the bottom plate 14, the bottom is attached to the inner side of the top plate 13, and the back is attached to the front side of the back plate 11, the stability of the partition 23 is ensured, preventing items from shaking or tilting when stored.

[0052] Depending on storage needs, users can attach storage boxes 6, shelves 7, cup holders 8, and other accessories to the snap-in rails 5 on the front side of the back panel 11 to classify and organize items, thereby improving storage space utilization and ease of use.

[0053] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
