Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of storage devices for items, and in particular to a storage cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Storage cabinets are widely used in daily life, such as display cabinets for showing items and refrigerated cabinets for selling and refrigerating beverages. Existing single-door storage cabinets typically have the door lock located on the side. However, larger storage cabinets often have multiple doors, including at least two adjacent doors. Because the gaps between the doors are small, installing locks is difficult. To avoid interfering with opening and closing the doors, locks are usually installed at the top or bottom of the door. Since the doors are usually quite tall, locking at the top or bottom can easily leave a gap on the other side, resulting in poor security. Furthermore, the protruding lock structure is not aesthetically pleasing. Utility Model Content

[0030] This utility model discloses a storage cabinet, which includes a cabinet for storing items, a double-door structure, and a locking device. The cabinet includes a cabinet body 1 and a strip-shaped component 2. Storage cabinets include refrigerated display cases placed in shopping malls, supermarkets, and other similar locations, where beverages and cold drinks are stored. Storage cabinets also include display cases for displaying items for sale or for promotional purposes.

[0031] The double-door structure is arranged on one side of the thickness direction of cabinet 1, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the x-direction is the width direction of cabinet 1, the y-direction is the height direction of cabinet 1, and the thickness direction of cabinet 1 is perpendicular to both the width and height directions. Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the example, the direction is perpendicular to the paper. When the storage cabinet is placed normally on a flat surface, the width direction of the storage cabinet is also horizontal, and the height direction of the storage cabinet is vertical.

[0032] The double-door structure includes a first cabinet door 31 and a second cabinet door 32 arranged adjacent to each other and spaced apart along the width direction of the cabinet body 1, that is, the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 are arranged spaced apart along the x-direction. The end of the first cabinet door 31 away from the second cabinet door 32 is hinged to the cabinet, and a first locking part is provided on the end of the first cabinet door 31 near the second cabinet door 32. One end of the second cabinet door 32 is hinged to the cabinet, that is, in some embodiments, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the end of the second cabinet door 32 closest to the first cabinet door 31 is hinged to the cabinet; in some embodiments not shown, the end of the second cabinet door 32 furthest from the first cabinet door 31 is hinged to the cabinet. The first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 rotate relative to the cabinet to switch between a closed state and an open state. Figure 1 and Figure 3In the embodiment shown, the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 are in a closed state. The first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 can be opened or closed by rotating the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 about the axis that is hinged to the cabinet.

[0033] Strip 2 is installed on cabinet 1 and is located on the same side of cabinet 1 as the double-door structure. That is, strip 2 is arranged on the same side of cabinet 1 in the thickness direction as the double-door structure.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, when both the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 are closed, the strip 2 includes a strip portion 21 located within the gap between the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32. The strip portion 21 is the part located within the gap between the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 along the width direction of the cabinet body 1. When the dimension of the strip 2 along the width direction of the cabinet body 1 is greater than the gap, the strip portion is a part of the strip 2, and the strip 2 includes the strip portion located within the gap and the part structure located outside the gap. When the dimension of the strip 2 along the width direction of the cabinet body 1 is less than the gap, the strip portion is the entirety of the strip 2. Along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 1, the structure of the strip portion 21 within the height dimension range of the first cabinet door 31 does not exceed the outer edge of the first cabinet door 31 (e.g., ...). Figure 1 The outer edge 311 of the first cabinet door shown), and the structure of the strip 21 within the height dimension of the second cabinet door 32 do not exceed the outer edge of the second cabinet door 32 (e.g., Figure 2 The outer edge 321 of the second cabinet door shown); the structure of the strip portion 21 within the height dimension of the first cabinet door 31, that is, along the y-direction, the portion of the strip portion 21 at the upper and lower edges of the first cabinet door 31. That is, along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 1 and along the direction from the side of the cabinet body away from the double-door structure towards the double-door structure, the structure of the strip portion 21 within the height dimension of the first cabinet door 31 is located on the side of the outer edge of the first cabinet door closer to the cabinet. Similarly, the structure of the strip portion 21 within the height dimension of the second cabinet door 32 does not exceed the outer edge of the second cabinet door 32.

[0035] The door locking device includes a door lock component 4, which includes a first locking part 41 hinged to the strip-shaped portion 21, a second locking part 42 hinged to the first locking part 41, and a third locking part 43 hinged to the second locking part 42. The third locking part 43 is provided with a second locking part 431. The door locking device has a usage state and a ready-to-use state with different positions of the third locking part 43. For example... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the locking device is in use, the first cabinet door 31 is in the closed state. The second locking part 431 cooperates with the first locking part, and the locking device locks the second locking part 431 and the first locking part. That is, when the locking device is in use, the closed state of the first cabinet door 31 is locked by the door lock device, and the first cabinet door 31 can be effectively closed. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when the door locking device is in the ready-to-use state, the second locking part 431 and the first locking part are unlocked, and the door lock 4 is located within the gap between the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the position of the third locking part 43 is different in the use state and the standby state of the locking device. The position of the third locking part can be adjusted by rotating the first locking part 41 relative to the strip part, rotating the first locking part 41 relative to the second locking part 42, and rotating the third locking part 43 relative to the second locking part 42.

[0036] In this embodiment, the storage cabinet features a strip 21 extending beyond the outer edges of the first and second doors 31 and 32, positioned between the two doors. A door lock 4, comprising a first locking part 41, a second locking part 42, and a third locking part 43 with a second locking part 431, is mounted on the strip 21. When the first and second doors 31 and 32 are closed, a groove structure is formed between the strip 21 and the doors, reducing and preventing interference with their rotation. When the locking device is not in use, the door lock 4 is located on the strip 21, further reducing interference with the rotation of the doors and providing a concealed structure, resulting in a more compact and aesthetically pleasing overall storage cabinet. When the locking device is in use, rotating the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43 moves the second locking part 431 to a position engaging with the first locking part, locking both the first and second locking parts 431 and effectively locking the first door 31.

[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the axis of hinge between the first locking part 41 and the strip-shaped part 21 is parallel to the thickness direction of the cabinet body 1; the axis of hinge between the second locking part 42 and the first locking part 41 is perpendicular to the axis of hinge between the first locking part 41 and the strip-shaped part 21; and the axis of hinge between the third locking part 43 and the second locking part 42 is parallel to the axis of hinge between the second locking part 42 and the first locking part. In this embodiment, when the door locking device is in the standby state, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43 can be rotated to a state approximately parallel to the plane of the strip-shaped part, thereby reducing the size of the locking device in the thickness direction of the cabinet body 1 and reducing the interference of the door lock on the rotation of the first and second cabinet doors. Furthermore, by rotating the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43, the locking device can be easily switched to the usable state, allowing the door lock to be engaged as follows: Figure 5 The switch to a state similar to that perpendicular to the strip can effectively compensate for the difference in thickness between the strip and the first cabinet door in the cabinet body, thus reliably locking the first cabinet door.

[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figures 6-8 As shown, the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43 are plate-shaped structures, and in this embodiment, the plate-shaped structure is a thin plate structure. When the locking device is in the ready-to-use state, the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43 are located on the same straight line parallel to the height direction of the cabinet 1, that is, there is a straight line passing through both ends of the first locking part 41, both ends of the second locking part 42, and both ends of the third locking part 43. In this embodiment, when the locking device is in the ready-to-use state, the door lock component fits more closely to the strip-shaped part, and the dimension of the locking device in the thickness direction of the cabinet 1 is as small as possible, so as to minimize the interference of the door lock component on the rotation of the first and second cabinet doors.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43 are plate-shaped structures. When the locking device is in a ready-to-use state and both the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32 are closed, along the thickness direction of the cabinet body 1, the first locking part 41, the second locking part 42, and the third locking part 43 do not extend beyond the outer edges of the first cabinet door 31 and the second cabinet door 32. This embodiment helps to ensure that when the locking device is in a ready-to-use state, the interference of the door lock components on the rotation of the first and second cabinet doors is reduced.

[0040] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first locking part and the second locking part 431 are the first hole and the second hole, respectively. The locking device also includes a lock body 5. When the locking device is in use, the lock body 5 passes through the first hole and the second hole to lock the first hole and the second hole. Figure 5 As shown, the lock body 5 is a commonly used lock that includes a U-shaped head. After the U-shaped head passes through the first hole and the second hole, the U-shaped head is locked, thereby locking the first cabinet door by the door lock device.

[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1As shown, the end of the second cabinet door 32 near the first cabinet door 31 is hinged to the cabinet. That is, in this embodiment, the second cabinet door 32 and the first cabinet door 31 are not double doors. By providing another door lock device on the side of the second cabinet door furthest from the first cabinet door, similar to the door lock device corresponding to the first cabinet door, effective locking of both the first and second cabinet doors when closed can be achieved. In other words, in this embodiment, one locking device corresponds to one cabinet door. By designing the second cabinet door to have the same opening and closing direction as the first cabinet door, the anti-theft effect when the cabinet is closed can also be improved.

[0042] In some embodiments, the storage cabinet includes a display cabinet.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it; although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model or equivalent substitutions can be made to some technical features without departing from the spirit of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the technical solution claimed by this utility model.
