Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of furniture accessories, specifically to a side panel connector and a drawer. Background Technology

[0002] For home decoration boards, connectors are usually needed to connect two boards together. Existing connectors typically include corner brackets, round dowels, three-in-one / two-in-one connectors, dominoes, screws, etc.

[0003] However, when the aforementioned side panel connectors are used for drawer connections, they are mostly used only for fixed connections and cannot achieve detachable panels. For example, drawer assembly is mostly fabricated and assembled in the factory and then transported to the installation site for installation. Assembled drawers are not convenient to transport. In order to facilitate the transport of drawers, some installation sites will choose to assemble the drawers on-site. However, regardless of which connector is used, many installation tools are required during the assembly process, such as electric drills, grooving tools, and hole saws. The operating space at installation sites varies, and many installation sites have limited space. Therefore, assembling on-site is also quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problem—that existing side panel connectors cannot meet the requirements for rapid and stable assembly—this utility model proposes a side panel connector, which includes a screw rod. One end of the screw rod is integrally provided with a clamping part, which is eccentrically positioned with respect to the screw rod. The bottom end of the clamping part is inclined, and the bottom end of the inclined surface of the clamping part is bent toward the side opposite to the inclined surface.

[0005] This utility model also proposes a drawer, which includes a front panel, a back panel, a bottom panel, and two side panels. The side panels are connected to the front panel using the side panel connectors described above. An installation groove is formed on the inner surface of each side panel. The end of the installation groove near the front panel is open, and the end away from the front panel is closed. The bottom panel is installed in one of the two installation grooves, with its front surface abutting against the front panel and its rear surface abutting against the installation groove. Two rivets are also connected to the inner surface of each side panel, arranged vertically. The back panel is connected to the two side panels via the rivets, with both ends of the back panel abutting against the two side panels respectively.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that rivets are also connected between the base plate and the front plate.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that: two clips are inserted into the side surface of the back plate away from the side plate; one end of each clip is provided with a vertical insertion post; the back of the back plate is provided with insertion holes corresponding to the two insertion posts; the insertion posts are inserted into the insertion holes; and the other end of each clip is provided with a vertical limiting plate; the limiting plate abuts against the outer surface of the side plate.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0009] 1. By setting the clamping part of the screw eccentrically and tilting the bottom end, an axial clamping force can be formed between the clamping part and the plate. When the screw rotates in the direction of the eccentricity of the clamping part, the connector can be disassembled from the clamping hole. When the screw is rotated in the opposite direction, its clamping part will be firmly clamped to the plate. That is, when it is used to connect two side plates, the back plate is used to press the two side plates together, which can keep the two side plates stable. In this way, the interaction force between the two side plates and the back plate can achieve the purpose of clamping each other.

[0010] 2. By using side panel connectors to connect the two side panels to the front panel, and then adding the bottom panel and back panel, a stable assembly of the drawer can be achieved. The entire assembly process only requires manual assembly and does not require any other auxiliary tools.

[0011] 3. By setting a clip, the side plate can be limited, thus ensuring that the side plate and the bottom plate remain relatively stable. Attached Figure Description

[0018] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] refer to Figure 1 This utility model proposes a side plate connector, including a screw 1 with an external thread. The bottom end of the screw 1 is integrally connected to a clamping part 2, which is eccentrically positioned with respect to the screw 1. The bottom end of the clamping part 2 is inclined, i.e., its bottom end is set as an inclined surface, and the lowest end of the inclined surface is bent in the direction of bending away from the side of the inclined surface.

[0021] refer to Figure 2 The screw 1 of the connector is screwed into one of the plates, and then a snap-fit ​​hole 31 that matches the snap-fit ​​part 2 is opened on the surface of another plate. The snap-fit ​​hole 31 has a certain amount of machining allowance to allow the snap-fit ​​part 2 to rotate a certain distance. During installation, the snap-fit ​​part 2 needs to be placed at an angle first, and then gradually rotated into the snap-fit ​​hole 31.

[0022] It should be noted that when using the connector, two side plates 5 are required to cooperate with a back plate 4 or a bottom plate 6 to form a mutually abutting posture. That is, both side plates 5 are connected to other plates through the connector, and then the back plate 4 is installed between the two side plates 5, so that the two ends of the back plate 4 abut against the two side plates 5 respectively. At this time, the back plate 4 will apply a force to the connector that tends to rotate away from the bending direction of the clamping part 2. Under the action of this force, the clamping part 2 will abut against the plate, thereby making the side plates 5 stably connected. The back plate 4 will also be clamped under the action of the reaction force of the two side plates 5.

[0023] Example 2

[0024] This embodiment discloses a drawer, including a front panel 3, a back panel 4, a bottom panel 6, and two side panels 5. The side panels 5 are connected to the front panel 3 using the side panel 5 connector disclosed in Embodiment 1. That is, two connectors are threadedly connected to the side surface of the side panel 5 near the front panel 3. The screw 1 of the connector is screwed into the side panel 5. The clamping part 2 is located on the outside of the side panel 5. The two clamping parts 2 on one side panel 5 are set in the same bending direction and are both set towards the inner surface of the side panel 5. The front panel 3 has a corresponding locking hole 31 for the locking part 2. The locking part 2 is inserted into the locking hole 31.

[0025] A mounting groove 51 is also provided on the inner surface of the side plate 5 along its length. The end of the mounting groove 51 near the front plate 3 is open, and the end of the mounting groove 51 away from the front plate 3 is closed. The bottom plate 6 is installed in the two mounting grooves 51, that is, the side surface of the bottom plate 6 near the front plate 3 abuts against the front plate 3, and the side surface of the bottom plate 6 away from the front plate 3 abuts against the closed end of the mounting groove 51.

[0026] Two rivets 7 are inserted into the inner surface of the side plate 5. The two rivets 7 are arranged vertically. The two ends of the rivets 7 are respectively provided with reverse teeth in opposite directions, and one end is a large diameter end and the other end is a small diameter end. The large diameter end of the rivet 7 is inserted into the side plate 5, and the small diameter end of the rivet 7 is located on the inner side of the side plate 5. The two ends of the back plate 4 are provided with connecting holes 42 corresponding to the small diameter ends of the rivets 7. The connecting holes 42 at both ends of the back plate 4 are respectively inserted into the rivets 7 on the two side plates 5, so that the two ends of the back plate 4 abut against the two side plates 5. That is, the back plate 4 can give the side plates 5 an outward rotation. Under this force, the clamping part 2 can abut against the front plate 3, thereby realizing the fastening effect of the side plate 5. The reaction force of the two side plates will clamp the back plate 4. At the same time, with the help of the rivets 7, the back plate 4 can be stably connected between the two side plates 5.

[0027] A rivet 7 is also connected between the base plate 6 and the front plate 3. The large-diameter end of the rivet 7 is inserted into the front plate 3 and kept fixed, while the base plate 6 is connected to the small-diameter end of the rivet 7.

[0028] Two insertion holes 41 are also provided on the surface of the back plate 4 facing away from the side plate 5. A clip 8 is inserted into each insertion hole 41. One end of the clip 8 has an integrally formed insertion post 81, which is perpendicular to the clip 8 and inserted into the insertion hole 41. The other end of the clip 8 has an integrally formed vertical limiting plate 82, which abuts against the outer surface of the side plate 5 to achieve a tightening effect on the side plate 5 and the back plate 4. It should be noted that the clip 8 is made of plastic.

[0029] In summary, this utility model, by eccentrically setting the clamping part 2 of the screw 1 and tilting its bottom end, enables the clamping part 2 to form an axial clamping force with the plate. Therefore, when the screw 1 rotates in the eccentric direction of the clamping part 2, the connector can be disassembled from the locking hole 31. When the screw 1 rotates in the opposite direction, its clamping part 2 will be firmly clamped to the plate. That is, when using it to connect two side panels 5, the back plate 4 presses the two side panels 5 together, thus stabilizing the two side panels 5 and enabling the interaction force between the two side panels 5 and the back plate 4 to achieve the purpose of clamping. By using the side panel 5 connector to connect the two side panels 5 to the front plate 3, and with the addition of the bottom plate 6 and the back plate 4, a stable drawer can be assembled. The entire assembly process only requires manual assembly and does not require any other auxiliary tools. By setting the clamp 8, the side panels 5 can be limited, thus ensuring that the side panels 5 and the bottom plate 6 remain relatively stable.
