Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of metal furniture manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a special accessory for mortise and tenon connection of stainless steel cabinet panels. Background Technology

[0002] Stainless steel cabinet panels are cabinet bodies made primarily of stainless steel. They are corrosion-resistant, fire-resistant, moisture-proof, and environmentally friendly, and are widely used in kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, and other home furnishing applications. The main connection methods for stainless steel cabinet panels are as follows: 1. Welding connection: Using welding technology to fix cabinet components, resulting in a sturdy and reliable structure; 2. Screw connection: Including two-in-one and three-in-one screw connections, allowing for quick assembly through pre-drilled holes; 3. Mortise and tenon joint: A traditional technique using interlocking joints to achieve precise alignment and a high aesthetic appeal; 4. Adhesive fixing: Using specialized adhesives to bond the countertop to the cabinet body; 5. Clip-on system: Using a clip-on structure to fix the panels, supporting quick disassembly and suitable for scenarios requiring flexible adjustments.

[0003] Traditional stainless steel cabinets are mostly connected by welding or bolts, which has the following drawbacks:

[0004] 1. Welding causes thermal deformation, affecting dimensional accuracy (the error is generally 20.5mm);

[0005] 2. Bolted connections require pre-drilled holes, limiting design flexibility;

[0006] 3. Existing mortise and tenon structures are mostly used in wooden furniture. Due to the high hardness of stainless steel (HRC≥50), it is difficult to apply them directly. Therefore, we propose a special accessory for mortise and tenon connection of stainless steel cabinet panels. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a special accessory for mortise and tenon connection of stainless steel cabinet panels to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a special accessory for mortise and tenon connection of stainless steel cabinet panels, including a first accessory and a second accessory. A first dovetail groove is formed on one end surface of the first accessory, and an elastic snap-fit ​​groove is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the first dovetail groove. A first inclined surface is symmetrically formed on both sides of one end of the first accessory. A dovetail tenon is fixedly connected to one end of the second accessory. A snap-fit ​​groove is formed on both sides of the dovetail tenon. A second dovetail groove is formed between the dovetail tenons. A second inclined surface is symmetrically formed on both sides of one end of the second accessory.

[0009] Preferably, a connecting groove is formed in the middle of the surface of the first inclined surface, a second neodymium iron boron magnet is embedded in the inner surface of the connecting groove, and a first neodymium iron boron magnet is fixedly installed on one side of the second inclined surface.

[0010] Preferably, the end of the first accessory is provided with two sets of first dovetail grooves, and the first inclined surface is provided on the outside of the first dovetail grooves.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the second accessory is provided with two sets of dovetail tenons, and the slot is provided with two sets, with the second dovetail slot being provided in one set, located between the dovetail tenons.

[0012] Preferably, the dovetail tenon and the elastic snap-fit ​​groove are elastically engaged.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The wedge-shaped design of the elastic buckle groove can compensate for the thickness tolerance between the second and first parts, further improving the fixing effect of the metal tenon and mortise connection.

[0015] 2. By using the first and second neodymium iron boron magnets, the first and second components can be quickly positioned by magnetic attraction. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: a special accessory for mortise and tenon connection of stainless steel cabinet panels, including a first accessory 1 and a second accessory 5. A first dovetail groove 2 is opened on one end surface of the first accessory 1, and an elastic buckle groove 3 is fixedly installed on the inner side surface of the first dovetail groove 2. A first inclined surface 4 is symmetrically opened on both sides of one end of the first accessory 1. A dovetail tenon 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the second accessory 5. A slot 12 is opened on both sides of the dovetail tenon 11. A second dovetail groove 10 is opened between the dovetail tenons 11. A second inclined surface 6 is symmetrically opened on both sides of one end of the second accessory 5.

[0022] Specifically, a connecting groove 8 is provided in the middle of the surface of the first inclined surface 4, and a second neodymium iron boron magnet 9 is embedded in the inner surface of the connecting groove 8. A first neodymium iron boron magnet 7 is fixedly installed on one side of the second inclined surface 6.

[0023] Specifically, the end of the first component 1 is provided with two sets of first dovetail grooves 2, and the first inclined surface 4 is provided on the outside of the first dovetail grooves 2.

[0024] Specifically, one end of the second accessory 5 is provided with two sets of dovetail tenons 11, the slot 12 is provided with two sets, and the second dovetail groove 10 is provided in one set, located between the dovetail tenons 11.

[0025] Specifically, the dovetail tenon 11 and the elastic snap-fit ​​groove 3 are elastically snapped together.

[0026] In this embodiment, the first neodymium iron boron magnet 7 and the second neodymium iron boron magnet 9 are used to achieve rapid positioning between the first component 1 and the second component 5 through magnetic attraction, allowing the first inclined surface 4 and the second inclined surface 6 to fit together quickly. The dovetail tenon 11 is engaged in the elastic locking groove 3 within the first dovetail groove 2. Then, longitudinal pressure is applied between the second component 5 and the first component 1, causing the elastic locking groove 3 to lock the dovetail tenon 11, thereby increasing the lateral tensile strength between the first component 1 and the second component 5. The dovetail tenon 11 is laser-cut to avoid micro-cracks at the edges caused by traditional stamping. The wedge-shaped design of the elastic locking groove 3 can compensate for the thickness tolerance between the second component 5 and the first component 1, further improving the fixing effect of the mortise and tenon connection.
