Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of home furnishing, and in particular to a high-strength lightweight side panel and pull-out basket. Background Technology
[0002] As a core storage component of modern kitchen cabinets, pull-out baskets require their side panel structures to simultaneously meet key performance requirements such as lightweight design, high load-bearing capacity, and long-term durability. Currently, pull-out basket side panels on the market are mainly manufactured using single materials such as aluminum alloy and stainless steel, or spliced materials, but all have their drawbacks. While aluminum alloy side panels are lightweight, their edge structure and joints are prone to deformation under long-term load; stainless steel side panels, although strong, are too heavy, increasing the load on the drawer slides and reducing the smoothness of push-pull operations; composite structure side panels are glued or welded, with glued methods being environmentally unfriendly and prone to detachment, while welding affects aesthetics and has low production efficiency.
[0003] Based on the above, the existing pull-out basket side panels need further improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] The first purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a high-strength, lightweight side panel. By using a mechanical locking structure to combine the side panel body and reinforcing components of different materials, the side panel can meet both lightweight design and high load-bearing capacity, and can also achieve quick assembly and disassembly, avoiding problems such as pollution caused by adhesive bonding and welding processes, and achieving high assembly efficiency.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, this utility model combines the side plate body and reinforcing components of different materials through a mechanical locking structure and achieves reliable assembly of the two. This allows the side plate to meet both lightweight design and high load-bearing capacity, as well as to achieve quick assembly and disassembly, avoiding problems such as pollution caused by adhesive bonding and welding processes, and achieving high assembly efficiency.

The second connecting part and the second main board form the mounting groove. The second connecting part and the second main board form a mounting cavity with the first connecting part. The two ends of the mounting groove are in communication with the outside, so that the reinforcing component can be slidably inserted into the mounting groove from both ends and locked onto the mounting groove.
[0008] Preferably, the bent portion is symmetrically arranged on the reinforcing component and is formed by integrally bending the edge of the reinforcing component; the integral molding process makes the connection between the bent portion and the reinforcing component more secure and less likely to fall off.
[0009] Preferably, the bending portion includes a first contact surface and a second contact surface. One end of the first contact surface is connected to the edge of the reinforcing component, and the other end is connected to the second contact surface.

Through the mutual matching of the protrusion and the recess, the reinforcing component can be adapted and assembled on the side plate body.
[0010] Preferably, the mounting cavity is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs, which are disposed between the first connecting part and the second connecting part, or between the first connecting part and the second main board; the reinforcing ribs can enhance the structural strength of the side plate body and improve its bending rigidity.
[0011] Preferably, the reinforcing rib includes a first reinforcing rib, the distance between the first reinforcing rib and the edge of the mounting groove is adapted to the second contact surface; the first reinforcing rib plays a limiting role on the second contact surface, so that the bent part is engaged at the corresponding height of the side plate body, and the alignment between the side plate body and the reinforcing component is convenient.
[0012] Preferably, a limiting part is provided on the lower side of the first connecting part, and a flange is provided on the lower side of the second main board. The distance between the upper end of the flange and the second connecting part is greater than the distance between the lower end of the limiting part and the second connecting part. The flange is used to support the base plate, and the limiting part is used to limit the base plate to prevent the base plate from detaching from the upper side.
[0013] Preferably, the side panel body is made of aluminum or aluminum alloy; aluminum and its alloys are lightweight, thus achieving a lightweight design for the side panel body.
[0014] Preferably, the reinforcing component is made of stainless steel; stainless steel has the characteristic of high rigidity, and combining stainless steel with the side plate can enhance the overall rigidity of the side plate and increase its bending resistance.
[0015] Another objective of this invention is to provide a pull-out basket, comprising a base plate, a front baffle, and side plates as described above. The front baffle is disposed on one side of the base plate. The side plates, the front baffle, and the base plate together form a storage cavity, and the side plates are connected by corner brackets.

Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
[0025] Example 1:
[0026] See Figures 1 to 4 .
[0027] This embodiment discloses a high-strength lightweight side plate 1, including a side plate body 2 and a reinforcing component 3. The side plate body 2 and the reinforcing component 3 are connected by a locking structure 4. The side plate body 2 is a hollow structure. The locking structure 4 includes a mounting groove 41 on the side plate body 2 and a bending portion 42 on the reinforcing component 3. The bending portion 42 is engaged with the mounting groove 41.
[0028] The side panel body 2 includes a first main board 5 and a second main board 6. The first main board 5 includes a first connecting portion 51 and a second connecting portion 52 formed by bending the first connecting portion 51. The mounting groove 41 is formed between the second connecting portion 52 and the second main board 6. The second connecting portion 52 and the second main board 6 form a mounting cavity 21 with the first connecting portion 51. In this design, the mounting groove 41 is formed by the edge of the second connecting portion 52 and the second main board 6 being arranged opposite to each other. Both ends of the mounting groove 41 are connected to the outside, and the reinforcing component 3 can slide into the mounting groove 41 from both ends to match the body 2.
[0029] The bent portion 42 is symmetrically arranged on the reinforcing component 3 and is formed by integrally bending the edge of the reinforcing component 3. Because the bent portion 42 is integrally formed by bending the reinforcing component 3, the connection between the bent portion 42 and the reinforcing component 3 is strong and not easily broken.
[0030] The bending portion 42 includes a first contact surface 421 and a second contact surface 422. One end of the first contact surface 421 is connected to the edge of the reinforcing component 3, and the other end is connected to the second contact surface 422. Specifically, the first contact surface 421 is perpendicularly connected to the reinforcing component 3, and the second contact surface 422 is perpendicularly connected to the first contact surface 421.
[0031] The mounting cavity 21 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 22, which are disposed between the first connecting part 51 and the second connecting part 52, or between the first connecting part 51 and the second main board 6. Since the first connecting part 51, the second connecting part 52 and the second main board 6 form a hollow structure, the bending strength is relatively weak. The reinforcing ribs in the mounting cavity 21 can enhance the rigidity of the side plate body 2.
[0032] To limit the position of the reinforcing component 3, the reinforcing rib 22 includes a first reinforcing rib 221, the distance between the first reinforcing rib 221 and the edge of the mounting groove 41 being adapted to the second contact surface 422.
[0033] Specifically, the reinforcing rib 22 further includes a second reinforcing rib 222, which corresponds to the mounting groove 41. When the reinforcing component 3 is installed on the side plate body 2, the second reinforcing rib 222 abuts against the reinforcing component 3.
[0034] To provide installation space for the base plate 7 and facilitate the assembly of the pull-out basket 6, a limiting part 511 is provided on the lower side of the first connecting part 51, and a flange 61 is provided on the lower side of the second main plate 6. The distance between the upper end of the flange 61 and the second connecting part 52 is greater than the distance between the lower end of the limiting part 511 and the second connecting part 52.
[0035] The side panel body 2 is made of aluminum or aluminum alloy. The use of aluminum or aluminum alloy for the side panel body 2 in this design allows for a lightweight design of the side panel 1.
[0036] The reinforcing component 3 is made of stainless steel. The reinforcing component 3 in this design is made of stainless steel, which has high bending rigidity. By assembling it onto the side plate body 2, the side plate 1 achieves increased rigidity while maintaining a lightweight design.
[0037] Compared with the prior art, this utility model combines the side plate body 2 and the reinforcing component 3 of different materials through the mechanical locking structure 4 and realizes the reliable assembly of the two. This allows the side plate 1 to meet both lightweight design and high load-bearing capacity, and also to achieve quick assembly and disassembly, avoiding problems such as pollution caused by adhesive bonding and welding processes, and achieving high assembly efficiency.

[0039] See Figures 5 to 6 .
[0040] This embodiment discloses a pull-out basket 7, including a base plate 8, a front baffle 9, and a side plate 1 as described in Embodiment 1. The front baffle 9 is disposed on one side of the base plate 8. The side plate 1, the front baffle 9, and the base plate 8 enclose a storage cavity, and the side plates are connected by a corner piece 10. The base plate 8 is disposed between the limiting part 511 and the flange 61. Compared with the prior art, the pull-out basket 7 of this utility model, due to the application of the above solution, is lightweight, has high load-bearing capacity, and high assembly efficiency.
[0041] Based on the disclosure and teachings of the above specification, those skilled in the art can make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to this utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
