Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of furniture accessories, specifically to a vertical cabinet panel diagonal connector and cabinet body. Background Technology

[0002] Vertical cabinet panels are usually connected to the side panel and the top or bottom panel, or the side panel and the back panel. Common connection methods include eccentric connectors, dovetail joints, corner brackets, and direct screw connections.

[0003] Common cabinet panels include 18mm and 9mm thick ones. For 18mm thick cabinet panels, the eccentric parts, wooden dowels, or screws can fit together more deeply, resulting in higher strength after connection and fewer breakage issues. However, for 9mm thick cabinet panels, due to their thinner thickness, the strength is lower when using the above-mentioned connectors, making them prone to breakage. Therefore, for 9mm panels, the connection strength between perpendicular cabinet panels and diagonals is currently low, and the connection is also more complicated. After connection, the surface of the cabinet panel will have obvious top holes or connection marks. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues—namely, the low strength of existing connectors when used for vertical diagonal connections of 9mm cabinet panels, resulting in noticeable top holes or connection marks on the panel—this invention proposes a vertical cabinet panel diagonal connector. This connector includes an arc-shaped connecting body with a protruding connecting portion and a recessed clearance groove in its center. A snap-fit ​​element is provided on the surface of the connecting portion near the clearance groove. Two connecting holes are formed on the connecting body, located on the upper and lower sides of the clearance groove, respectively. Each of the two arc-shaped edges of the connecting body has a raised edge.

[0005] A further feature of this invention is that: two snap-fit ​​bodies are provided, arranged vertically; the distance between the upper snap-fit ​​body and the top of the clearance groove is not less than its height, and the distance between the two snap-fit ​​bodies is also not less than its height.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that the snap-fit ​​body has two inclined surfaces and one vertical surface on the side near the bottom of the clearance groove, and the two inclined surfaces are respectively located at both ends of the vertical surface to form an isosceles trapezoid.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that the two ends of the clearance groove are set as inclined surfaces to form an isosceles trapezoid.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the connecting holes are inclined, and the inclination directions of the two connecting holes are symmetrical about the transverse centerline of the connector.

[0009] This utility model also proposes a cabinet body that uses the vertical cabinet panel diagonal connector as described above. It includes two cabinet panel bodies, one of the vertical surfaces of which is set as a 45-degree slope. An arc-shaped groove adapted to the connector is opened on the slope of the cabinet panel body. The connector is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped groove by the cooperation of the connecting hole and the screw. The two cabinet panel bodies are snapped together by two snap-fit ​​bodies.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. By opening connection holes on the connector, the connector can be fixedly connected to the cabinet body. Then, by using the snap-fit ​​mechanism, two 9mm cabinet bodies can be snapped together. After the cabinet bodies are joined, since they are not in contact, the forces acting on the cabinet bodies are all horizontal forces. Therefore, the forces acting on the two connectors by the two cabinet bodies also drive the two connectors to move in opposite directions. Thus, after the cabinet body is subjected to force, the two connectors can be snapped together more tightly, and thus more stably.

[0012] 2. Since the two connectors are installed in the arc groove, after the bevels of the two cabinet panels are diagonally connected, there will be no nail holes or connection holes on the surface of the cabinet panels, which greatly increases the smoothness of the cabinet panels. In addition, the absence of top holes or connection holes on the surface can also greatly reduce the possibility of moisture getting into the cabinet panels, that is, prevent humid air or liquid from entering the interior of the cabinet panels through the top holes or connection holes.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] refer to Figures 1-3 This utility model proposes a vertical cabinet panel diagonal connector, including an arc-shaped connector 1. The outer side of the connector 1 is arc-shaped, and the inner side of the connector 1 is vertical. A connecting part 11 is integrally provided in the middle of the inner side of the connector 1. The connecting part 11 is protruding. An avoidance groove 12 is also provided on the inner side of the connector 1. A snap-fit ​​body 111 is integrally provided on the side surface of the connecting part 11 near the avoidance groove 12.

[0025] It should be noted that the snap-fit ​​body 111 is located on the outside of the relief groove 12, and the side of the snap-fit ​​groove away from the connecting part 11 is open. The sum of the widths of the connecting part 11 and the relief groove 12 is the same as the width of the connecting body 1.

[0026] Two connection holes 13 are provided on the connector 1. The two connection holes 13 are respectively located at the top and bottom of the clearance groove 12. The connection holes 13 are countersunk holes. The connection holes 13 are fixedly connected to the cabinet body 2 by screws.

[0027] Two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 are provided, one at the top and one at the bottom of the connecting part 11, and arranged vertically. The two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 are symmetrically arranged about the transverse centerline of the clearance groove 12. The distance between the upper snap-fit ​​body 111 and the top of the clearance groove 12 is not less than its height, and the distance between the two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 is also not less than its height. This ensures that when the two connecting bodies 1 are snap-fitted together, the snap-fit ​​bodies 111 on the two connecting bodies 1 are first staggered and aligned, and then the snap-fit ​​bodies 111 are pushed into the clearance groove 12 in opposite directions.

[0028] The snap-fit ​​body 111 has two inclined surfaces and one vertical surface on the side near the bottom of the relief groove 12. The two inclined surfaces are respectively set at both ends of the vertical surface, forming an isosceles trapezoid with the vertical surface. This allows the snap-fit ​​bodies 111 to gradually align along the inclined surfaces when the two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 are pressed and snapped together, until the vertical surfaces of the two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 abut each other, making the snap-fit ​​process smoother.

[0029] Both ends of the clearance groove 12 are also set as bevels, and the two bevels are set in an isosceles trapezoid with the opening edge of the clearance groove 12. In this way, when the two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 are disassembled, the snap-fit ​​bodies 111 can contact the bevels of the clearance groove 12, thereby avoiding the problem of jamming during disassembly.

[0030] The connecting holes 13 are inclined, and the inclination directions of the two connecting holes 13 are symmetrical about the transverse centerline of the connecting body 1, that is, the two connecting holes 13 are arranged in a figure-eight shape. In this way, when connecting it to the cabinet body 2 with screws, the screws can be screwed into the cabinet body 2 at an inclination. Therefore, when the connecting body 1 is subjected to horizontal tension, the inclined screws can generate greater resistance with the cabinet body 2, which is stronger and more stable than screws that are screwed into the cabinet body 2 horizontally.

[0031] The two edges of the arc-shaped outer side of the connector 1 are also integrally connected with protruding blades 14. During installation, the two protruding blades 14 can be embedded into the cabinet body 2, thereby making the connector 1 and the cabinet body 2 more stable and the connection strength higher.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] refer to Figures 4-8 This embodiment discloses a cabinet that uses the vertical cabinet panels diagonally connected as described in Embodiment 1. It includes two cabinet panel bodies 2. One vertical surface of the cabinet panel body 2 is set as a 45-degree inclined surface. An arc-shaped groove 21 adapted to the connector is opened on the inclined surface of the cabinet panel body 2. The connector 1 is installed in the arc-shaped groove 21. During installation, the connector 1 is inserted from one end of the arc-shaped groove 21, so that the arc-shaped surface of the connector 1 is close to the bottom of the arc-shaped groove 21 and moves. The two protruding blades 14 are inserted into the two side walls of the arc-shaped groove 21, thereby achieving the purpose of being embedded in the cabinet panel body 2. The two cabinet panel bodies 2 are connected by two snap-fit ​​bodies 111.

[0034] Snap-fit ​​process: First, align the snap-fit ​​bodies 111 on the two connectors 1 in an alternating manner, and then drive the inclined surfaces of the two cabinet panels 2 to approach each other until they touch.

[0035] Next, the two cabinet panels 2 are moved up and down alternately so that the snap-fit ​​bodies 111 on the two connecting bodies 1 come into contact. It should be noted that in order to ensure the stability of the snap-fit, the two snap-fit ​​bodies 111 first come into contact with the two inclined surfaces. As the cabinet panels 2 move up and down continuously, the two contacting snap-fit ​​bodies 111 will gradually be squeezed and deformed until the two vertical surfaces abut together and the upper and lower ends of the vertical surfaces are aligned, thus completing the snap-fit ​​process.

[0036] It should be noted that the connectors disclosed in this application are applicable to the connection between the side panel and the back panel of the cabinet. Although the connection between the side panel and the top or bottom panel, and between the back panel and the top or bottom panel can also be made, the connection effect is poor because the direction of force on the panel is different from that of the panel.

[0037] In summary, by opening a connecting hole 13 on the connecting body 1, this utility model can fix the connecting body 1 to the cabinet body 2. Then, by engaging the snap-fit ​​body 111, it can snap the two 9mm cabinet body 2 together. After the cabinet body 2 is joined, since the two are in contact, the forces acting on the cabinet body 2 are all on the horizontal plane. Therefore, the forces acting on the two connecting parts by the two cabinet body 2 also drive the two connecting parts to move in opposite directions. Thus, after the cabinet body is subjected to the force, the two connecting parts can be snapped together more tightly, and thus more stably.

[0038] Since the two connectors are installed in the arc groove 21, after the bevels of the two cabinet body 2 are diagonally connected, there will be no nail holes or connection holes 13 on the surface of the cabinet body 2, which greatly increases the smoothness of the cabinet. In addition, the absence of top holes or connection holes 13 on the surface can also greatly reduce the possibility of moisture on the cabinet body 2, that is, prevent humid air or liquid from entering the interior of the cabinet body 2 through the top holes or connection holes 13.
