[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a solar-powered kitchen scale with a pull-out extended countertop, including a solar-powered kitchen scale body 1. A fixed platform 2 is set on the horizontal surface of the top of the solar-powered kitchen scale body 1 through a weighing sensor. A display screen 3 and buttons 4 are set on the inclined surface of the top of the solar-powered kitchen scale body 1 from high to low. A solar panel 5 is set on the side wall of the solar-powered kitchen scale body 1. Storage slots 7 are opened on both sides of the fixed platform 2, and a movable platform 8 is slidably set inside the storage slots 7. A fixing mechanism is set at the connection between the storage slots 7 and the movable platform 8. A limit mechanism is set on the side of the movable platform 8. A pulling mechanism is set on one side of the movable platform 8 outside the fixed platform 2.

[0019] The fixing mechanism includes a first strong permanent magnet 9 and a second strong permanent magnet 10. The second strong permanent magnet 10 is fixed at the deepest part of the storage slot 7, and the second strong permanent magnet 10 is magnetically connected to the first strong permanent magnet 9. One side of the first strong permanent magnet 9 is fixedly connected to the other side of the movable platform 8. Through the magnetic attraction of the first strong permanent magnet 9 and the second strong permanent magnet 10, the movable platform 8 is ensured to be stable and not shaken when stored.

[0020] The limiting mechanism includes an anti-detachment groove 11 and an anti-detachment block 12. An anti-detachment groove 11 is provided on one side of the storage groove 7, and an anti-detachment block 12 is slidably installed inside the anti-detachment groove 11. The end of the anti-detachment block 12 is fixedly connected to the end of one side of the movable platform 8. The anti-detachment block 12 is designed close to the first strong permanent magnet 9. The anti-detachment groove 11 and the anti-detachment block 12 cooperate to prevent the movable platform 8 from accidentally detaching from the storage groove 7 during the extraction process, thus ensuring safe use.

[0021] The pulling mechanism includes a fixed block 13. Two fixed blocks 13 are fixed on one side of the movable platform 8 outside the fixed platform 2, and a fixed rod 14 is fixed on one side of the fixed block 13. The outer side of the fixed rod 14 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the end of the handle 15, which makes it easy for users to pull out and retract the movable platform 8 through the handle 15. The rotatable connection design allows the handle 15 to fit against the movable platform 8 when not in use, reducing space occupation.

[0022] The end of the handle 15 is designed with an arc shape, and the end of the handle 15 fits against one side of the movable platform 8, ensuring that the handle 15 can rotate normally through the fixed rod 14.

[0023] The four corners of the bottom of the solar-powered kitchen scale body 1 are equipped with support feet 6, which play a role in stabilizing the kitchen scale and ensuring a smooth weighing process.

[0024] The solar-powered kitchen scale has a built-in power supply and control circuit. The solar panel 5 is connected to a charging controller via wires. The charging controller integrates an MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) module, which can automatically adjust the output voltage and current of the solar panel to achieve intelligent charging and discharging management of the built-in battery. The battery supplies power to the display screen 3, buttons 4, and weighing sensors via wires. Multiple weighing sensors are installed under the fixed platform 2. The weighing sensors convert the detected weight signals into electrical signals, which are transmitted to the control circuit for processing. Finally, the accurate weight value is displayed on the display screen 3. The above is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] Working Principle: When using this pull-out extendable kitchen scale, if the user needs more weighing space, they first grasp the handle 15 and pull it outwards. The handle 15, through the fixing rod 14, causes the movable platform 8 to slide outwards along the storage slot 7. The anti-detachment block 12 slides synchronously within the anti-detachment slot 11, ensuring that the movable platform 8 does not detach from the storage slot 7. Once the movable platform 8 is pulled out to the appropriate position, food can be placed on the extended countertop for weighing. After weighing, push the handle 15 to retract the movable platform 8 back into the storage slot 7. The first strong permanent magnet 9 and the second strong permanent magnet 10 attract each other, making the movable platform 8 securely stored.

[0026] In terms of power supply, solar panel 5 converts solar energy into electrical energy under sunlight conditions, which is then transmitted to the charging controller via wires. The charging controller uses an MPPT module to automatically adjust the voltage and current to efficiently charge the battery. The electrical energy stored in the battery powers all components of the kitchen scale, ensuring that the display screen 3 can display the weight value normally, the buttons 4 can respond to operation commands, and the weighing sensor can accurately detect the weight.

[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
