Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture technology, and in particular to a glass shelf with a clothes rail accessory. Background Technology

[0002] As the name suggests, a glass cabinet is a cabinet made of glass. Glass cabinets are widely used in shopping malls or exhibition venues to display products. A glass cabinet is mainly used as a counter to store items.

[0003] The hanging function is one of the functions of the cabinet, which is achieved by installing the hanging rod accessories on the shelf and then inserting the hanging rod into the hanging rod accessories.

[0004] Currently, the connection between existing coat rack accessories and glass shelves mainly relies on bolt connections. This method was considered a relatively reliable and universal connection method for a long time, but it has drawbacks. The operation process is quite cumbersome. First, the coat rack accessories and glass shelves need to be initially positioned. Then, the bolts need to be passed through the pre-drilled holes from above the glass shelves and aligned with the threaded holes on the coat rack accessories. Next, the bolts are tightened using screwdrivers and other tools. This process not only consumes a lot of time and physical strength, but also makes it easy for the coat rack to tilt or the glass shelves to be damaged due to uneven force during tightening, affecting the overall installation quality. In subsequent disassembly, the bolts may become difficult to unscrew due to corrosion, which brings great difficulties to the disassembly work. Utility Model Content

[0005] This invention aims to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a glass shelf with a clothes rail accessory to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: This glass shelf with a clothes rail accessory includes a shelf body and a clothes rail accessory body disposed on the lower end surface of the shelf body. The characteristic is that: the upper end of the clothes rail accessory body is provided with a locking component having a preset shape and retractable under pressure; the outer side of the short side of the shelf body is provided with a locking slot that defines the final assembly position of the clothes rail accessory body on the shelf body; the locking component is compressed and deformed when it enters the locking slot, and is allowed to spring back to the preset shape after it is fully inserted into the locking slot to achieve locking engagement.

[0007] Further improvements include a connecting rod and a locking plug. The vertical part of the connecting rod is fixed to the upper end face of the clothes rack accessory body, and the horizontal part is used to set the locking plug. The locking plug has a V-shaped configuration and has a connecting section and a locking section extending from both ends of the connecting section. The connecting section is arc-shaped, and the locking section abuts against the upper or lower end face of the locking slot after the locking plug is fully inserted into the locking slot.

[0008] Further improvements include the provision of symmetrically distributed compression blocks at the opening end of the locking slot, which divide the space provided by the locking slot into a compression space and a springback space. When the locking plug enters the compression space, the compression block contacts the locking segment and generates compression force. When the locking plug enters the springback space, the compressed locking plug springs back to a preset shape. After springing back to the preset shape, the locking segment of the locking plug abuts against the inner end face of the compression block and the upper or lower end face of the locking slot, respectively.

[0009] Further improvements include a locking slot with a channel on the shelf body that allows the vertical portion of the connecting rod to be inserted and simultaneously formed on the extrusion block located below. The extension direction of the channel is consistent with the insertion direction of the locking plug into the locking slot.

[0010] Further improvements include ensuring that the vertical portion of the connecting rod can completely fill the channel when inserted into it.

[0011] To further improve the design, clamping rods are provided on the inner end face of the locking section, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the connecting rod. When the locking plug is removed from the locking slot, the clamping rods are used in conjunction with an auxiliary tool to apply a force to the locking section to retract it inward.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] The shelf body and the clothes rod accessory body of this utility model are assembled together by locking components and locking slots, and the locking engagement provided by the two cannot be released without human intervention. This ensures the assembly stability of the shelf body and the clothes rod accessory body, and eliminates the need for additional parts such as bolts, thus achieving convenient and quick assembly.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0019] Referring to the attached drawings: This glass shelf with a clothes rail accessory includes a shelf body 1 and a clothes rail accessory body 2 disposed on the lower end surface of the shelf body 1. The upper end of the clothes rail accessory body 2 is provided with a locking component 3 having a preset shape and retractable under pressure. The outer side of the short side of the shelf body 1 is provided with a locking slot 4 that defines the final assembly position of the clothes rail accessory body 2 on the shelf body 1. When the locking component 3 enters the locking slot 4, it is compressed and deformed, and is allowed to spring back to the preset shape after it is fully inserted into the locking slot 4 to achieve a locking engagement. The principle of this utility model is that the shelf body 1 is connected to the monotonic arm set on the cabinet column, and the shelf body 1 is provided with a slot for inserting glass. The clothes rod accessory body 2 has a socket for inserting the clothes rod. The shelf body 1 and the clothes rod accessory body 2 are assembled together by locking component 3 and locking slot 4. The locking engagement provided by locking component 3 and locking slot 4 cannot be disengaged without human intervention, thus ensuring the assembly stability of shelf body 1 and clothes rod accessory body 2. After locking engagement, the locking component 3 cannot be disengaged from the locking slot 4 because the locking component 3 has a preset shape that can retract when squeezed. That is, the preset shape of the locking component 3 will change after being squeezed, and the squeezing only occurs when the locking component 3 enters the locking slot 4. After the locking component 3 is fully entered into the locking slot 4, the squeezing will disappear, that is, it will return to the preset shape, which also creates interference that prevents the locking component 3 from disengaging from the locking slot 4. This method has a good anti-disengagement effect and simplifies the cumbersome assembly. It does not require the cumbersome fastening of bolts, and realizes convenient and quick assembly.

[0020] The locking assembly 3 includes a connecting rod 31 and a locking plug 32. The vertical portion of the connecting rod 31 is fixed to the upper end face of the clothes rack accessory body 2, and the horizontal portion is used to set the locking plug 32. The locking plug 32 has a V-shaped configuration and has a connecting section 321 and locking sections 322 extending from both ends of the connecting section 321. The connecting section 321 is arc-shaped. After the locking plug 32 is fully inserted into the locking slot 4, the locking section 322 abuts against the upper or lower end face of the locking slot 4. The locking assembly 3 (including the connecting rod 31) The locking plug 32 is integrally molded with the clothes rail accessory body 2 via injection molding. When the clothes rail accessory body 2 is assembled with the glass shelf body 1, the upper end face of the clothes rail accessory body 2 abuts against the lower short end face of the glass shelf body 1. The connecting rod 31 uses its own length to allow the locking plug 32 to match the position of the locking slot 4 formed in the glass shelf body 1. The locking plug 32 has a V-shaped configuration, which allows the locking plug 32 to retract when squeezed, that is, its configuration is variable and also has self-recovery. 2 consists of two parts: a connecting section 321 and a locking section 322. The connecting section 321 connects to the transverse portion of the connecting rod 31. Its arc shape is more suitable for shallow groove structures than the conventional V-shaped configuration. That is, the usable length of the locking plug 32 is not affected by the tilt angle of the locking section 322 (the conventional V-shaped configuration will have a longer overall length as the tilt angle of the locking section 322 is smaller, and similarly, a shorter overall length as the tilt angle is larger). Although the arc shape also has a smaller tilt angle and a shorter overall length, the arc shape will also have a longer overall length as the tilt angle is smaller. The longer the arc length, the greater the tilt angle and the shorter the arc length. However, the arc length follows a circle, so it will not affect the overall length of the locking plug 32. It is also more suitable for shallow groove structures. Moreover, the arc shape makes the bending and recovery ability of the locking segment 322 stronger. The bending point is less likely to have creases, resulting in better durability. After the locking plug 32 is fully inserted into the locking slot 4, the two locking segments 322 abut against the upper and lower end faces of the locking slot 4 respectively to maintain the stability of the locking plug 32 in the locking slot 4.

[0021] The opening end of the locking slot 4 is provided with symmetrically distributed pressing blocks 5, which divide the space provided by the locking slot 4 into a pressing space 41 and a spring-back space 42. When the locking plug 32 enters the pressing space 41, the pressing blocks 5 contact the locking section 322 and generate pressing force. When the locking plug 32 enters the spring-back space 42, the pressed locking plug 32 springs back to a preset shape. After springing back to the preset shape, the locking section 322 of the locking plug 32 abuts against the inner end face of the pressing block 5 and the upper or lower end face of the locking slot 4, respectively. The pressing blocks 5 are used to generate pressing force on the locking plug 32. At the opening end of the slot 4, the width of the locking slot 4 at the opening end is reduced by its own thickness. The width at this position is used as the compression space 41. The width of the compression space 41 is less than the maximum width of the locking plug 32. So the locking plug 32 will be compressed when it passes through the compression space 41. The part of the locking slot 4 without the compression block 5 is used as the spring space 42. That is, when the locking plug 32 is placed in this space, it will spring back to the preset shape, so that the two locking segments 322 abut against the upper end face and the lower end face of the locking slot 4 respectively. At the same time, the inner end face of the compression block 5 is also used as the anti-slip surface to maintain the stability of the locking plug 32 in the locking slot 4.

[0022] The locking slot 4 has a channel 6 on the shelf body 1, which allows the vertical part of the connecting rod 31 to be inserted into it and simultaneously formed on the extrusion block 5 located below. The extension direction of the channel 6 is consistent with the insertion direction of the locking plug 32 into the locking slot 4. Since the locking plug 32 is connected by the connecting rod 31, and the connecting rod 31 also uses its own length to adapt the position of the locking plug 32 to the locking slot 4, and in order to prevent the locking component 3 from being partially exposed after the two are engaged, the channel 6 is provided so that the connecting rod 31 can enter into the glass shelf body 1 together, achieving good concealment.

[0023] When the vertical part of the connecting rod 31 is inserted into the channel 6, the channel 6 can be completely filled. This arrangement allows the inner side of the channel 6 to fit against the outer side of the vertical part of the connecting rod 31. In this way, the channel 6 not only has the function of passage but also the function of support, which can increase the structural strength of the connecting rod 31 and make it less prone to breakage.

[0024] The inner end face of the locking segment 322 is provided with clamping rods 3221 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the connecting rod 31. When the locking plug 32 is withdrawn from the locking slot 4, an auxiliary tool is used in conjunction with the clamping rods 3221 to apply a force to the locking segment 322 to retract it inward. Unlocking is achieved by manual operation. The auxiliary tool is a clamping tool, such as tweezers. The clamping rods 3221 are U-shaped and form a clamping space when placed in the locking segment 322. The two clamping parts of the clamping tool are inserted into the corresponding clamping spaces, and then the clamping action causes the locking segment 322 to retract inward. The two locking segments 322 bend inwards simultaneously, achieving the same effect as compression and retraction deformation. This ensures that the shape produced by the locking plug 32 can pass through the compression space 41. In order to better apply force to the locking segments 322, two clamping rods 3221 are provided on each locking segment 322. This allows for two-handed operation during manual operation, i.e., using two clamping tools to clamp the corresponding clamping rods 3221, thereby better transmitting the force and enabling the two locking segments 322 to bend inwards more quickly.

[0025] Although the present invention has been illustrated and described with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes in form and detail are possible within the scope of the claims.
