Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to kitchenware, and more particularly to a drain rack. Background Technology
[0002] In related technologies, a drain rack is a tool used to drain washed vegetables, fruits, tableware, etc., which are still wet, primarily used in kitchens. Existing drain racks consist of multiple rods and two connecting pieces made of rigid material (such as plastic). The rods are arranged side-by-side, with gaps between adjacent rods for water to flow down. The two rigid pieces are fixed to the ends of the rods, connecting them into a single unit to form a drain panel. In use, the drain rack is placed on the sink under the faucet, and the washed vegetables, fruits, tableware, etc., are placed on the rack, allowing the water to flow down through the gaps between the rods into the sink, thus completing the draining function. Since the size of sinks varies in each household, drain racks of different sizes are needed to match them, which increases costs and the risk of unsold inventory for drain rack manufacturers and distributors. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this application proposes a drain rack that can not only adjust its length but also its front and back to adapt to washing basins of different sizes and heights.
[0004] A drain rack according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a telescopic rod assembly and a fixing assembly. The telescopic rod assembly includes a first rod group and a second rod group, the first rod group being slidably inserted into the second rod group. The fixing assembly includes a first fixing member and a second fixing member, the first fixing member being connected to the end of the first rod group away from the second rod group, and the second fixing member being connected to the end of the second rod group away from the first rod group. The height at which the top of the first fixing member protrudes from the top of the first rod group is the same as the height at which the top of the second fixing member protrudes from the top of the second rod group, the height at which the bottom of the first fixing member protrudes from the bottom of the first rod group is the same as the height at which the bottom of the second fixing member protrudes from the bottom of the second rod group, and the height at which the top of the first fixing member protrudes from the top of the first rod group is greater than the height at which the bottom of the first fixing member protrudes from the bottom of the first rod group.
[0005] The drain rack according to the embodiments of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: This drain rack includes a telescopic rod assembly and a fixing assembly. A first rod group and a second rod group in the telescopic rod assembly are slidably inserted into each other.

[0025] In the description of this application, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "illustrative embodiment," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment or example, which are included in at least one embodiment or example of this application. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.
[0026] The following is for reference. Figures 1 to 3 This invention describes a drain rack according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the drain rack according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a telescopic rod assembly and a fixing assembly. The telescopic rod assembly includes a first rod group 100 and a second rod group 200, with the first rod group 100 slidably inserted into the second rod group 200. The fixing assembly includes a first fixing member 300 and a second fixing member 400. The first fixing member 300 is connected to the end of the first rod group 100 away from the second rod group 200, and the second fixing member 400 is connected to the end of the second rod group 200 away from the first rod group 100. The height at which the top of the first fixing member 300 protrudes from the top of the first rod group 100 is the same as the height at which the top of the second fixing member 400 protrudes from the top of the second rod group 200. The height at which the bottom of the first fixing member 300 protrudes from the bottom of the first rod group 100 is the same as the height at which the bottom of the second fixing member 400 protrudes from the bottom of the second rod group 200. The height at which the top of the first fixing member 300 protrudes from the top of the first rod group 100 is greater than the height at which the bottom of the first fixing member 300 protrudes from the bottom of the first rod group 100.
[0028] Understandably, this drain rack includes a telescopic rod assembly and a fixing assembly. The first rod group 100 and the second rod group 200 in the telescopic rod assembly are slidably inserted into each other. The first fixing member 300 and the second fixing member 400 of the fixing assembly are respectively fixed to the opposite ends of the first rod group 100 and the second rod group 200. The top of the first fixing member 300 protrudes from the top of the first rod group 100 at the same height as the top of the second fixing member 400 protrudes from the top of the second rod group 200. Similarly, the bottom of the first fixing member 300 protrudes from the bottom of the first rod group 100 at the same height as the bottom of the second fixing member 400 protrudes from the bottom of the second rod group 200. Therefore, during use… When the sink is higher than the countertop where it is installed, the first rod assembly 100 and the second rod assembly 200 can be stretched to a suitable length first, and then the first fixing member 300 and the second fixing member 400 can be clipped onto the outer edge of the sink to secure the drain rack. At the same time, because the height of the top of the first fixing member 300 protruding from the top of the first rod assembly 100 is greater than the height of the bottom of the first fixing member 300 protruding from the bottom of the first rod assembly 100, the front and back of the drain rack can be adjusted according to the height of the sink to match the height of the sink edge protruding from the countertop. In summary, the drain rack of this application can not only adjust its length, but also adjust its front and back to adapt to sinks of different sizes and heights.
[0029] It is understood that the first rod group 100 includes a plurality of first rods 110 arranged at intervals, and the second rod group 200 includes a plurality of second rods 210 arranged at intervals, with a drain position 500 formed between adjacent second rods 210. For example, as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in this embodiment, multiple spaced-apart first rods 110 are inserted into multiple spaced-apart second rods 210, and a draining position 500 is formed between adjacent second rods 210 so that water can flow down from the draining position 500 when fruits, vegetables or dishes are placed on the draining rack.
[0030] It is understood that a limiting structure is provided between the first linkage 100 and the second linkage 200. The limiting structure includes a first limiting part located on the first linkage 100 and a second limiting part located on the second linkage 200. The second limiting part is used to prevent the first linkage 100 from disengaging from the second linkage 200. For example, as... Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the limiting structure includes a first limiting part and a second limiting part. The first limiting part of the first rod group 100 cannot be disengaged due to the restriction of the second limiting part of the second rod group 200, thereby maintaining the connection between the first rod group 100 and the second rod group 200.
[0031] It is understood that the limiting structure includes a protrusion 111 provided on the first rod group 100 and a limiting groove 211 provided on the second rod group 200. The limiting groove 211 extends along the sliding direction of the second rod group 200, and the protrusion 111 is slidably connected to and limited within the limiting groove 211. For example, as... Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the first limiting part is a protrusion 111 provided on the first rod group 100, and the second limiting part is a limiting groove 211 extending along the length direction of the second rod group 200. The protrusion 111 is slidably connected to the limiting groove 211 and limited to both ends of the limiting groove 211, thereby preventing the first rod group 100 and the second rod group 200 from separating from each other.
[0032] It is understandable that the limiting structure is only located on the outermost two sets of first rods 110 and second rods 210. For example, as Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the limiting structure can be provided only on the outermost two first rods 110 and second rods 210, thereby saving processing costs and ensuring sliding stability. Of course, in other embodiments, the limiting structure can also be provided on all first rods 110 and second rods 210.
[0033] Understandably, it also includes an anti-slip pad 600, which is disposed on the fixing member and protrudes from the top and / or bottom of the fixing member for anti-slip purposes. For example, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the anti-slip pad 600 protrudes from the top and / or bottom of the fixing member and is disposed on the fixing member, so that it can achieve anti-slip when placed upright, or when placed upside down, or can achieve anti-slip when placed in both upright and upside down.
[0034] Understandably, the anti-slip mat 600 is detachably mounted on the fixing component. For example, as... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, when the anti-slip mat 600 is worn or can be removed as needed by the user, the drain rack without the protective mat can be used alone.
[0035] It is understood that the anti-slip mat 600 is U-shaped and includes a first anti-slip part 610, a connecting part 620, and a second anti-slip part 630. The first anti-slip part 610 is located at the top of the fixing component, the second anti-slip part 630 is located at the bottom of the fixing component, and the connecting part 620 connects the first anti-slip part 610 and the second anti-slip part 630. For example, as... Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the U-shaped anti-slip mat 600 includes a connecting part 620 and a first anti-slip part 610 and a second anti-slip part 630 connected to both ends of the connecting part 620. The first anti-slip part 610 and the second anti-slip part 630 are respectively disposed on the top and bottom of the fixing component, so that the front and back of the drain rack can be anti-slip.
[0036] It is understandable that both rod 110 and rod 210 are square tubes. For example, as... Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in this embodiment, both the first rod 110 and the second rod 210 are square tubes, which facilitates stable support of the object.
[0037] The embodiments of this application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
