Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of pull-out baskets for home furniture cabinets, and more particularly to a pull-out basket with a drawer panel that can be tilted open. Background Technology

[0002] In actual use, traditional pull-out drawers in kitchen cabinets typically carry a large number of items and are relatively heavy. People often need to pull the entire basket out to retrieve or place items. This can be quite inconvenient, especially for vulnerable groups such as women and the elderly, as it requires considerable effort to pull and use the drawer. Furthermore, because the storage space inside traditional pull-out drawers is relatively fixed to the drawer panel, people can only retrieve or place items vertically through a single drawer opening. This limits the storage functionality of the cabinet drawer and fails to meet people's needs for flexible storage and retrieval.

[0003] A storage cabinet, as disclosed in announcement number CN102821652B, has a front panel that can be tilted and opened via a linkage assembly. This linkage assembly includes a first linkage member connected to the front panel, a transmission part that converts the movement speed of the first linkage member toward the rear side of the cabinet body, and a second linkage member that can move toward the rear side of the cabinet body using the output of the transmission part. A blocking member is provided in the cabinet body to prevent the second linkage member from moving toward the rear side of the cabinet body. However, its drawbacks are that the front panel requires force to close when tilted and lacks a spring-loaded action; the linkage assembly structure is relatively complex, requiring a large installation and linkage space for the drawer side panels, resulting in larger, taller, and heavier side frame dimensions; furthermore, since all components are integrally connected to the side panels, the entire side panel needs to be disassembled or replaced during installation and maintenance, causing inconvenience in initial installation and subsequent maintenance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this application is to overcome the above-mentioned technical defects and provide a pull-out basket structure with a drawer panel that can be tilted to open, so as to put or take out items by rotating and tilting the drawer panel. Its tilt linkage device adopts a modular assembly design, which is convenient to install and use and has high structural connection stability.

[0005] Based on the above technical objectives, this application achieves its objectives through the following technical solution:

[0007] Optionally, the bottom side of the sliding limiting mechanism is provided with a fixed bracket, and the first side and the second side are rotatably connected to the end of the fixed bracket that is relatively close to the bottom side of the side plate along the intersection of the two sides. The other end of the pulling mechanism is positioned and connected to the side of the fixed bracket that is relatively far away from the drawer panel.

[0008] Optionally, the fixed bracket is an "L"-shaped bracket, with one end of the "L"-shaped bracket positioned and connected to the bottom side of the sliding limiting mechanism, and the other end positioned and connected to the bottom side of the side plate near the drawer panel.

[0009] Optionally, a linkage basket is slidably connected to the top of the main body of the pull-out basket, and the linkage device further includes a linkage arm protruding from the side plate. The linkage arm is slidably connected to one side of the sliding limiting mechanism, and the linkage arm and the linkage basket are detachably linked.

[0010] Optionally, a first magnetic element is embedded at the end of the linkage arm that is relatively far from the sliding limit mechanism, and a second magnetic element is correspondingly provided on the linkage basket, with the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element being magnetically attracted to each other.

[0011] Optionally, the sliding limiting mechanism includes a housing and a cover plate disposed at the opening end of the housing, the second side edge being slidably limited to the end of the cover plate away from the first side edge, and the linkage arm being slidably limited to the side of the housing away from the cover plate.

[0012] Optionally, the cover plate is provided with a first sliding groove, the bottom side of the housing is provided with a connecting through groove, and the end of the second side edge that is relatively far away from the first side edge passes through the connecting through groove and is slidably connected to the first sliding groove.

[0013] Optionally, a linkage slider is embedded inside the housing, and a second slide groove is provided along one side of the housing that is relatively far from the cover plate. The linkage slider is slidably connected between the second slide grooves. The linkage arm is positioned and connected to the linkage slider through the second slide groove. The linkage slider is tractably connected to one end of the second side that is relatively far from the first side through a connecting rod.

[0014] Optionally, the inner side of the side panel has an inner cavity, and the inner cavity has an opening on the side closer to the drawer panel. The inner cavity also has an installation port along the inner side of the pull-out basket body. The installation port and the opening are connected along one side. The linkage device is detachably positioned and installed between the inner cavity of the side panel through the opening and the installation port.

[0015] Optionally, the drawer panel is detachably provided with a shelf inside, the connecting corner plate extends along the first side and is provided with a mounting panel, the mounting panel is provided with a hook, the drawer panel is positioned and connected to the mounting panel, and the shelf is hung on the hook.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, the present invention can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0017] (1) The drawer panel and the side panel are connected by a linkage device. The drawer panel can be rotated relative to the side panel to form a certain angle of tilt and open through the connecting corner plate, which facilitates people's flexible use of the main body of the pull-out basket for taking out and placing items.

[0018] The sliding limit mechanism achieves excellent sliding and linkage connection between the connecting corner plate and the linkage arm. Its structural design has strong linkage and high connection stability, providing a better tilt linkage user experience.

[0019] The pull mechanism enables the drawer panel to automatically pull back when closed. Combined with the first buffer damper, the drawer panel can automatically and slowly close, preventing hand pinching and improving safety.

[0020] (2) The linkage device is designed for modular installation mechanism. The device occupies little installation space and can be adapted to be installed on various side plate frames. The overall assembly and disassembly are convenient and it has good compatibility and versatility among various products.

[0021] (3) The main body of the pull-out basket achieves a good synchronous linkage with the upper pull-out basket through the linkage arm. At the same time, the linkage arm achieves a stable and reliable linkage transmission with the drawer panel through the sliding limit mechanism. When the drawer panel is rotated and tilted to open, the pull-out basket can be pulled outwards a distance synchronously with the drawer panel. When the main body of the pull-out basket is pulled out of the cabinet by the drawer panel, the pull-out basket is also pulled out synchronously through the linkage arm. When the main body of the pull-out basket is fully pulled out, the linkage arm is disengaged from the magnetic connection with the pull-out basket, and the pull-out basket is located at the upper rear of the main body of the pull-out basket. This makes the overall linkage effect good, and it is more convenient to put and take out items, providing a good user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments described are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0033] First, referring to Figures 1-6, this application provides a pull-out basket structure with a tiltable drawer panel 11, which includes a pull-out basket body 1. The pull-out basket body 1 is slidably connected to the cabinet in the front-to-back direction via a sliding track. The pull-out basket body 1 includes a base plate 13, and side plates 12, a back plate 14, and a drawer panel 11 disposed on the periphery of the base plate 13. At least one of the side plates 12 is detachably equipped with a linkage device 10 along one side near the drawer panel 11. In this embodiment, the pull-out basket body 1 has linkage devices 10 on both sides of the side plates 12. In other embodiments, a linkage device 10 on one side of the pull-out basket body 1 can also achieve the same technical function as this embodiment. Specifically, the linkage device 10 includes a connecting corner plate 101, a pulling mechanism 102, and a sliding limiting mechanism 103. The connecting corner plate 101 includes a first side 1011 and a second side 1012 disposed adjacent to each other. The two sides intersect at one end to form a certain included angle, and are connected by arc-shaped sides at their opposite ends. In this embodiment, the included angle A is 0° < A ≤ 90°. The drawer panel 11 is positioned and installed on the first side 1011. The first side 1011 and the second side 1012 are pivotally connected to the bottom side of the side plate 12 near the drawer panel 11 via a positioning shaft at one end where they intersect. The second side 1012 is slidably limited and connected to the sliding limiting mechanism 103 at the other end. One end of the pulling mechanism 102 is connected to the second side 1012, and the other end is connected to the sliding limiting mechanism 103. The drawer panel 11 can be rotated and tilted at a certain angle to open with the side plate 12 via the linkage device 10, which facilitates the retrieval or placement of items. The pull-out basket body 1 can be used by tilting the drawer panel 11 or by pulling it out as a whole, which better meets people's flexible and convenient use needs.

[0034] In this embodiment, the linkage device 10 further includes a fixed bracket 104 disposed on the bottom side of the sliding limiting mechanism 103. The fixed bracket 104 is formed as an "L"-shaped bracket. The "L"-shaped bracket is positioned and installed on the inner side of the side plate 12 along the bottom side by screws and screw holes. One end of the "L"-shaped bracket is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the sliding limiting mechanism 103, and the other end is positioned and connected to the bottom side of the side plate 12 near the drawer panel 11. The first side 1011 and the second side 1012 are rotatably pivotally connected to the other end of the "L"-shaped bracket. Specifically, in this embodiment, the tension mechanism 102 is a tension spring structure. One end of the tension spring is positioned and connected to the second side 1012, and the other end is positioned and connected to the fixed bracket 104 on the side relatively away from the drawer panel 11. The second side 1012 and the fixed bracket 104 are provided with a locking slot for engaging and positioning with the end of the tension spring.

[0035] Furthermore, the inner side of the side panel 12 is provided with an inner cavity, and an opening 120 is formed on the side of the inner cavity opposite to the drawer panel 11. An installation port 121 is also provided along the inner side of the pull-out basket body 1. The installation port 121 and the opening 120 are connected along one side. The linkage device 10 is detachably positioned and installed between the inner cavity of the side panel 12 through the opening 120 and the installation port 121. In actual installation and use, the sliding limit mechanism 103, the fixed bracket 104, and the connecting corner plate 10 of the linkage device 10 are... The linkage device 10 and the tension mechanism 102 bracket can be modularly assembled into an integrated mechanism. Then, the linkage device 10 as a whole can extend into the inner cavity through the opening 120 of the side plate 12. The sliding limit mechanism 103 is inserted into and positioned between the installation port 121 through the opening 120, thereby realizing the overall positioning function of the linkage device 10. Then, the linkage device 10 on the inner side is installed and fixed along the side of the side plate 12 by screws and screw holes, so that the overall structural connection stability of the pull basket body 1 is high and the installation and use are convenient.

[0036] Combined with the appendix Figure 7-9 As shown, in this embodiment, a linkage pull-out basket 20 is slidably connected to the top of the pull-out basket body 1. Similarly, the linkage pull-out basket 20 is also slidably connected to the inside of the cabinet body along the front-back direction via a sliding track and is located above the pull-out basket body 1. The linkage device 10 also includes a linkage arm 105 protruding from the side plate 12. The linkage arm 105 is slidably limited and connected to one side of the sliding limiting mechanism 103. The linkage arm 105 and the linkage pull-out basket 20 are detachably linked. Specifically, a first magnetic element 1051 is embedded at the end of the linkage arm 105 that is relatively away from the sliding limiting mechanism 103, and a second magnetic element 201 is correspondingly provided on the linkage pull-out basket 20. The first magnetic component 1051 and the second magnetic component 201 are magnetically attracted to each other. In this embodiment, the first magnetic component 1051 is a magnet, and the second magnetic component 201 is a magnetic metal panel. The magnetic metal panel is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pull-out basket 20 near the side of the linkage arm 105. The sliding pull-out distance of the pull-out basket body 1 is greater than the sliding pull-out distance of the pull-out basket 20. When the pull-out basket body 1 is slid out of the cabinet body through the drawer panel 11, the pull-out basket 20 is slid out together with the pull-out basket body 1 through the linkage arm 105. When the pull-out basket body 1 is completely pulled out, the linkage arm 105 and the pull-out basket 20 are disengaged.

[0037] Furthermore, in order to achieve a silent buffer connection, the linkage arm 105 is also provided with a buffer washer 1052. The buffer washer 1052 is embedded in the periphery of the first magnetic component 1051 and protrudes along the side close to the linkage basket 20 to abut against the second magnetic component 201, thereby improving the linkage user experience between the basket body 1 and the linkage basket 20.

[0038] In this embodiment, the sliding limiting mechanism 103 is positioned and installed on the side of the side plate 12 along its circumference by screws and screw holes. The sliding limiting mechanism 103 includes a housing 1031 and a cover plate 1032 disposed at the opening 120 end of the housing 1031. The cover plate 1032 and the housing 1031 are also connected along their circumference by screws and screw holes. The second side 1012 is slidably limited and connected to the cover plate 1032 at one end that is relatively away from the first side 1011. The linkage arm 105 is relatively away from the housing 1031. One side of the cover plate 1032 is slidably limited and connected; specifically, the cover plate 1032 has a first sliding groove 1001 along its end face, the bottom side of the housing 1031 has a connecting through groove 1003, the second side 1012 passes through the connecting through groove 1003 at one end relatively away from the first side 1011, and is slidably limited and connected to the first sliding groove 1001 by a positioning shaft, wherein the first sliding groove 1001 is an arc-shaped sliding groove, and the second side 1012 can rotate along one end and slide along the other end to be limited and connected between the two opposite ends of the arc-shaped sliding groove.

[0039] Specifically, to improve the connection stability between the linkage arm 105 and the sliding limit mechanism 103, a linkage slider 1033 is also embedded inside the housing 1031. The housing 1031 has a second sliding groove 1002 along one side relatively away from the cover plate 1032. The second sliding groove 1002 is a straight strip-shaped groove extending along the front-rear direction of the basket body 1. The linkage slider 1033 is slidably embedded in the second sliding groove 1002, wherein the linkage arm 105 passes through the second sliding groove 1002 at one end. 002 is fixedly connected to the linkage slider 1033. The linkage slider 1033 is tractably connected to the end of the second side 1012 that is relatively far away from the first side 1011 via the connecting rod 1004. When the drawer panel 11 is opened by rotation or tilting, or pulled, the second side 1012 of the connecting corner plate 101 drives the linkage slider 1033 to slide horizontally via the connecting rod 1004. The linkage arm 105 slides simultaneously and drives the linkage pull basket 20 to slide out a certain distance.

[0040] Furthermore, in order to shield and protect the second slide groove 1002 located inside the main body 1 of the pull-out basket and prevent foreign objects from getting stuck, a shielding strip 106 is provided on one side of the linkage arm 105. The shielding strip 106 is located at one end of the linkage arm 105 that is relatively close to the linkage slider 1033, and the shielding strip 106 is inserted and connected to the linkage arm 105 along one end.

[0041] Furthermore, to improve the comfort and safety of opening and closing the drawer panel 11, a first buffer damper 301 is provided on the side panel 12 near the drawer panel 11, and a second buffer damper 302 is also embedded in the inner side of the housing 1031. The second buffer damper 302 is located at the end of the second slide groove 1002 that is relatively close to the drawer panel 11. When the drawer panel 11 is opened by tilting, one end of the sliding block 1033 abuts against the push shaft of the second buffer damper 302, and the drawer panel 11 is opened slowly by tilting. When the drawer panel 11 is closed by rotating, due to the pulling force of the pulling mechanism 102, the drawer panel 11 abuts against the push shaft of the first buffer damper 301 along its inner side, and the drawer panel 11 is closed slowly.

[0042] In this embodiment, in order to improve the flexible user experience of different storage areas of the pull-out basket body 1, a shelf 15 is detachably provided on the inner side of the drawer panel 11. Specifically, a mounting panel 100 is integrally provided on the connecting corner plate 101 along the first side 1011. The mounting panel 100 extends vertically along the end face direction of the connecting corner plate 101. The drawer panel 11 is fixedly installed on the end face of the mounting panel 100 that is opposite to the side plate 12. A hook is provided on the other end face of the mounting panel 100 that is close to the side plate 12. The shelf 15 is detachably connected to the hook.

[0043] This specific embodiment is a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
