[0023] 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.
[0024] Please see Figure 1-4 A kitchen disinfection cabinet includes a cabinet body 1, a door 2, an ultraviolet lamp 4, and a placement mechanism 5. The door 2 is hinged to the front of the cabinet body 1. The ultraviolet lamp 4 is disposed on the inner wall of the cabinet body 1. The placement mechanism 5 includes a drain board 6, a groove 7, a collection frame 8, a sealing plate 9, a magnetic block 10, and a handle 11. The drain board 6 is connected to the inner wall of the cabinet body 1. The groove 7 is formed inside the cabinet body 1. The side wall of the collection frame 8 extends into the groove 7. The sealing plate 9 covers the collection frame 8. One end of the magnetic block 10 is connected to the sealing plate 9. The magnetic block 10 has its other end adsorbed onto the collection frame 8. The handle 11 is connected to the bottom of the collection frame 8. A connecting plate 12 is provided at the back of the cabinet 1. The connecting plate 12 is fixedly connected to the back of the cabinet 1. The hot air generator 13 is located on the top of the connecting plate 12. One end of the hot air generator 13 is connected to the connecting plate 12, and the other end of the hot air generator 13 extends into the cabinet 1. Multiple exhaust pipes 14 are provided at the back of the cabinet 1. A controller 15 is provided at the top of the cabinet 1. The controller 15 is electrically connected to the ultraviolet lamp 4.
[0025] Working principle: First, place the device in the designated location and connect it to external mains power to supply power to the device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the staff pulls the sealing plate 9 to separate the magnetic block 10 from the collection frame 8 made of martensitic stainless steel, thereby removing the sealing plate 9 from the cabinet 1. Then, the tableware that needs to be drained is placed upside down on the draining plate 6 to drain. After completion, the switch door 2 is closed. At this time, the collection frame 8 will collect the water dripping from the draining plate 6.
[0026] After waiting for a period of time and confirming that the drainage is complete, the staff will put the sealing plate 9 on the collection box 8 again, so that the magnetic block 10 can attract the collection box 8. Then, the staff will hold the symmetrically arranged handles 11 with both hands and slowly pull the collection box 8 to separate the side wall of the collection box 8 from the slot 7, and then take the collection box 8 out of the cabinet 1. Since the sealing plate 9 seals the opening at the top of the collection box 8, it can effectively prevent the collection box 8 from shaking and splashing water due to operational errors. After emptying the water in the collection box 8, the collection box 8 will be installed back into the slot 7 of the cabinet 1, and the sealing plate 9 will be closed.
[0027] At this point, flip the inverted tableware to its normal position, close the switch door 2, and activate the ultraviolet lamp 4 via the controller 15 on the top of the cabinet 1 to disinfect the tableware. At the same time, activate the hot air generator 13 located on the top of the connecting plate 12 via the controller 15. Hot air is blown into the cabinet 1, raising the internal temperature and drying the tableware. The steam generated during the drying process will be discharged through multiple exhaust pipes 14 set at the back of the cabinet 1. Under normal circumstances, the ultraviolet lamp 4 needs to irradiate for at least forty minutes to achieve the disinfection effect. The hot air generator 13 mentioned in the text adopts conventional technology on the market and includes a suction fan, air inlet, air outlet, heating element, shell, temperature controller and temperature sensor, etc., which will not be described in detail here.
[0028] It is particularly important to note that all components of this disinfection cabinet are made of martensitic stainless steel. This material selection ensures the durability and stability of the disinfection cabinet. The design of this disinfection cabinet is especially suitable for the disinfection and drying of small tableware such as plates and bowls. The size of the collection frame 8 is carefully designed to accommodate water droplets falling from small tableware during the draining process, effectively preventing water stains from flowing around inside the cabinet. It is worth mentioning that, to ensure the uniformity of the drying effect, air outlet pipes of hot air generators 13 are installed at both placement mechanisms 5. In this way, tableware placed on either placement mechanism 5 can be evenly blown by hot air, achieving efficient drying. This design not only makes full use of hot air resources, but also avoids water stains remaining on some tableware due to uneven drying, further ensuring the hygiene and safety of tableware and bringing users a better and more convenient user experience.
[0029] In actual use, users cannot directly observe the inside of cabinet 1. To solve this inconvenience, this embodiment has made a special design for the switch door 2. An observation window 3 is embedded in the front of the switch door 2. The observation window 3 is tightly integrated with the switch door 2, which not only ensures the overall structural strength of the switch door 2, but also allows users to clearly see the disinfection and drying status of the tableware inside cabinet 1 through the observation window 3, thus improving the user experience. When the observation window 3 becomes dirty, the switch door 2 can be opened and both sides of the observation window 3 can be wiped clean with a wiping cloth.
[0030] Considering the convenience and stability of the staff when operating the collection box 8, the design of the handle 11 has been optimized in this embodiment. Two handles 11 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the collection box 8. This design allows the staff to apply force with both hands at the same time. When pulling the collection box 8 to separate it from the cabinet 1 or installing it back into the cabinet 1, the force applied by both hands is more balanced, which effectively improves the stability when holding the handle 11 and avoids accidents such as slipping out of the hand.
[0031] To ensure that the collection frame 8 can be smoothly and accurately installed into the cabinet 1, this embodiment has carefully designed the compatibility between the collection frame 8 and the slot 7 on the cabinet 1. The size and shape of the slot 7 are specifically designed to precisely match the side wall of the collection frame 8. In this way, the side wall of the collection frame 8 can easily and stably extend into the slot 7, which not only facilitates the installation and disassembly of the collection frame 8, but also ensures its stability during use and effectively avoids shaking or displacement.
[0032] In this embodiment, the design has been optimized in terms of both connection effect and installation convenience. On the one hand, in order to enhance the connection stability between the handle 11 and the collection box 8, the two are firmly connected by welding to ensure that the handle 11 will not easily loosen or fall off during frequent use. On the other hand, in order to make the installation of the collection box 8 more convenient, the slot 7 is specially designed to match the side wall of the collection box 8, so that the collection box 8 can be smoothly and accurately embedded into the slot 7, improving the overall user experience.
[0033] In this embodiment, to enhance the overall stability of the disinfection cabinet, two placement mechanisms 5 are specially set up. The two placement mechanisms 5 can bear the weight of the tableware more evenly, avoiding the shift of the cabinet's center of gravity caused by the tableware being concentrated on one side. Moreover, when one placement mechanism holds larger or heavier tableware, the other can hold lighter and smaller tableware, further balancing the weight distribution and effectively improving the stability of the disinfection cabinet during use, making it more reassuring for users.
[0034] The control method of this utility model is to control the device by manually starting and stopping the switch. The wiring diagram of the power element and the supply of power are common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and wiring layout will not be explained in detail.
[0035] 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.
