Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the category of furniture and household items, and particularly relates to a storage structure and storage rack. Background Technology

[0002] A shelving unit is an open or semi-open shelf used for placing, displaying, organizing, and storing items. Its core purpose is to utilize vertical space to arrange items in an orderly manner, making them easy to access and see at a glance, thereby saving space, improving efficiency, and enhancing the tidiness of the environment. Unlike cabinets with doors, the characteristic of shelving units lies in their openness.

[0003] Prior art CN201192190Y discloses a desk with a foldable backpack tray and an extendable desktop. The backpack tray on this desk also functions as a shelf for storing backpacks. This prior art desk includes paired supports arranged side-by-side, a panel located above the supports, and a backpack tray. The backpack tray is mounted on either side of the supports via a folding hinge, which can rotate 90 degrees. When unfolded, it can hold a backpack. However, with the backpack tray in prior art CN201192190Y, only the hinge bears the force when unfolded. Prolonged exposure to torsional forces on the hinge can easily lead to deformation and failure. When folded, the hinge lacks a corresponding locking structure, making it prone to automatic opening due to instability during folding. Utility Model Content

[0045] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0046] It is understood that the terms “first,” “second,” etc., used in this application may be used herein to describe various elements, but unless otherwise stated, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are used only to distinguish one element from another.

[0047] In the first embodiment, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, a storage structure is proposed, the storage structure comprising:

[0048] Fixing plate 100 is used to fix it to one side of a wall or shelf;

[0049] The first shelf 200 is rotatably connected to one side of the fixed plate 100 via the rotating structure 300;

[0050] The first support member 400 is disposed on one side of the first shelf 200;

[0051] A magnetic suction element 500 is disposed on the other side of the first shelf 200; in the first state, the first shelf 200 is unfolded and the first support member 400 is in contact with the ground; in the second state, the first shelf 200 is retracted and the first shelf 200 is attached to the wall or shelf by the magnetic suction element 500.

[0052] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the fixing plate 100 is a connector that fixes the entire storage structure to the wall, shelf, or table on the side closest to the ground. The connection method can be a common fixed connection, such as a non-removable fixed connection (e.g., welding) or a detachable fixed connection (e.g., threaded connection). The rotating structure 300 can be the hinge structure described in existing technology CN201192190Y, or other conventional hinge structures, or one of the two rotating structures mentioned in the following embodiments. The first storage plate 200 has two usage states: as... Figure 5 As shown, the first state is the unfolded state, with the first shelf 200 placed horizontally. The first support member 400 at the bottom of the first shelf 200 abuts against the ground, providing horizontal support and reducing the torque received by the rotating structure 300. The unfolded first shelf 200 can be used to place objects such as school bags and boxes; Figure 6As shown, the second state is the retracted state. When retracted, the first shelf 200 is approximately parallel to the wall, shelf side, or table side. At this time, the magnetic component 500 serves to fix the first shelf 200 in place, preventing it from opening automatically. In this embodiment, the rotation angle of the first shelf 200 is not limited to 90 degrees, and can adapt to walls, shelves, or tables with different tilt angles, increasing its versatility.

[0053] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and 5 As shown, the storage structure also includes a second support member 600, disposed on one side of the first storage plate 200, and the magnetic suction member 500 is disposed on the second support member 600. The magnetic suction member 500 is an independent magnetic block, one side for attracting the second support member 600, and the other side for attracting the wall or shelf. The entire storage structure is made of magnetically attractive metal material, and similarly, magnetically attractive metal materials are also provided on the wall, shelf, or table.

[0054] In an optimization scheme, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first type of rotating structure 300 is specifically provided. The rotating structure 300 includes:

[0055] A folded edge 310 is provided at the edge of the first shelf 200;

[0056] The shaft 320 is connected to the flange 310 at both ends and is located laterally on one side of the first shelf 200;

[0057] The hook 330 has one end fixedly mounted on the fixed plate 100 and the other end hooked onto the shaft 320, so that the fixed plate 100 is rotatably connected to the first shelf 200.

[0058] In this optimized design, the folded edge 310 surrounds the three sides of the first shelf 200, which can enhance the support strength. The folded edge 310 is laterally provided with a shaft 320, and a hook 330 is hung on the shaft 320, so that the fixing plate 100 is rotatably connected to the first shelf 200. This rotatable connection is easy to disassemble and install.

[0059] In an optimization scheme, such as Figure 4 As shown, a second type of rotating structure 300 is specifically provided. The rotating structure 300 includes:

[0060] A folded edge 310 is provided on the edge of the first shelf 200, and threaded holes 340 are provided on the folded edges 310 on both sides of the first shelf 200.

[0061] A round tube 350 is fixedly mounted on the fixing plate 100 and located between the two threaded holes 340;

[0062] Screw 360 is fixedly connected to the flange 310 through the threaded hole 340. One end of screw 360 extends into the round tube 350, so that the round tube 350 rotates relative to screw 360.

[0063] In this embodiment, the folded edge 310 also serves to strengthen the support. The round tube 350 is welded and fixed to the fixing plate 100 (other conventional fixing methods, such as threaded connection, can also be used). The screws 360 pass through the threaded holes 340, axially fixing the round tube 350 between the two threaded holes 340. In comparison, the rotating structure of this embodiment uses two screws 360 instead of the shaft 320 in the first structure, reducing material usage and making it easier to apply paint during painting. In addition, the round tube 350 is easier to manufacture, resulting in lower overall production costs.

[0064] In the second embodiment, a multifunctional storage structure is proposed, which differs from the first embodiment in that the multifunctional storage structure also includes a second storage plate 700, and further defines the shape of the first support member 400.

[0065] like Figure 7 As shown, the second shelf 700 is disposed on the first shelf 200 and on the same side as the first support member 400; the first support member 400 has a U-shaped structure and forms a closed ring 410 with the first shelf 200; in the second state, the first shelf 200 is folded up and the second shelf 700 is laterally located below the closed ring 410.

[0066] The second embodiment addresses the issue of the limited functionality of the storage shelf. Current backpack trays only fulfill one function: placing a backpack when unfolded. This limited functionality fails to meet the needs of storing documents, books, umbrellas, or other miscellaneous items. Therefore, this embodiment utilizes a second state, additionally designing a second shelf 700. The first state of the second embodiment is the same as the first embodiment, but in the second state, such as... Figure 7 As shown, a second shelf 700 is horizontally arranged at the bottom of the first shelf 200, and a first support member 400 with a U-shaped structure is provided on the second shelf 700 to cooperate with it. Items such as documents, books, or umbrellas can be inserted from top to bottom into the closed ring 410 and placed on the second shelf 700. This embodiment, by designing the structure of the second shelf 700 and the first support member 400, makes reasonable use of the space after the first shelf 200 is folded up, thereby increasing the functionality of the storage structure.

[0067] In addition, the second shelf 700 can also be designed in a specific way, such as by setting some circular grooves on the second shelf 700 so that the umbrella tip can be placed on the shelf better, or the grooves can be made into long strips to make it easier to place items such as documents.

[0068] In the third embodiment, as Figure 5-7 As shown, a storage rack is proposed, the storage rack comprising:

[0069] The shelf is 800mm in size and is used to place items.

[0070] In the storage structure described in the first or second embodiment above, the fixing plate 100 is installed on one side of the frame 800 and located at the bottom of the frame 800;

[0071] Several drawers 810 are slidably disposed inside the frame 800;

[0072] Four steering wheels 820 are located at the bottom of the frame 800.

[0073] In this embodiment, the storage rack is an application of the first and second embodiments described above to specific furniture, and the technical effects it achieves are the same as those in the above embodiments, so they will not be repeated here.

[0074] 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.

[0075] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.

[0076] 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.
