Abstract

This utility model discloses a soap dish with a drainage structure, including a box body for storing soap. The box body is flat and disc-shaped with an open top. Symmetrical support plates are integrally formed with the box body at the bottom. The inner wall of the box body slopes inward and has several equidistant ribs, forming a guide groove between adjacent ribs. A hollow structure is formed at the bottom of the inner wall of the box body. A guide structure is located between the two support plates, directly below the hollow structure. This utility model uses grooves on the two bottom support plates to insert a guide plate that is lower in the front and higher in the back. This guides water flowing down from the hollow part in the middle of the box body to the front of the guide plate, allowing it to fall into the sink of the washbasin. This prevents water from accumulating under the soap dish and also hides the guide plate under the box body, making it less visible and more aesthetically pleasing.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically a soap box with a drainage structure. Background Technology

[0002] There are generally three types of soap dish drainers sold on the market:

[0003] The first type consists of a water collection box at the bottom and a soap dish on top for draining. The disadvantage of this type of soap dish is that when there is a lot of water in the collection box, the water vapor will evaporate and cause the soap placed on top to absorb the water vapor, making the soap soft and less durable.

[0004] The second type of soap dish is a soap dish that simply drains the soap without a water collection box underneath. The downside is that the water flowing down from the drain hole of the soap dish will fall directly onto the sink, leaving water on the surface. This requires wiping the sink dry every time you use the soap dish, which is a waste of time.

[0005] The third type of soap dish is a draining soap holder with a drainage structure protruding from the front. This allows water from the soap to remain in the draining soap holder and flow down the drainage structure into the sink instead of onto the sink counter. The disadvantages are that this design results in a relatively long front of the soap dish, making it bulky and less aesthetically pleasing. Also, soap residue can stick to the drainage structure, making the soap dish appear dirty. Therefore, a soap dish with a built-in drainage structure is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a soap dish with a drainage structure, which solves the problems of existing soap dishes not draining water easily, not being clean enough, and being inconvenient to use overall.

[0008] (II) Technical Solution

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a soap box with a drainage structure, comprising a box body for storing soap, the box body being a flat disc shape with an open top, support plates being symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the box body, the support plates being integrally formed with the box body, the inner wall of the box body being inclined inward and having several ribs evenly spaced, with a guide groove formed between adjacent ribs, a hollow structure being provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the box body, and a guide structure being provided between the two support plates, the guide structure being located directly below the hollow structure.

[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the hollow structure is composed of several slots, and the several slots together form a simplified Chinese character shape.

[0011] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, a guide groove is provided on the inner wall of the support plate, and the flow guiding structure includes two clamping plates that can be inserted into the guide groove. A flow guiding plate is connected to the inner side of the clamping plate, and a drainage groove is provided in the middle of the flow guiding plate. The flow guiding plate is at a 15-degree angle to the horizontal.

[0012] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the support plate is detachably connected to a suction cup.

[0013] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the rib is wavy or prismatic in shape.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0015] This invention provides a soap dish with a drainage structure. It has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This invention features a structure of intersecting raised lines and grooves on the inner wall support surface of the soap box, such as a wave pattern or ribbed texture. This elevates the soap to prevent water accumulation, while the grooves serve as water channels. The bottom of the box has a hollow structure for drainage, achieving both aesthetic appeal and effective water drainage. The drain plate is hidden beneath the soap box, ensuring timely removal of soap residue from the drain holes and preventing water accumulation that could soften the soap during evaporation. Hiding the drain plate reduces the size of the soap box, eliminating the need for a protruding drain plate on the surface. This results in a smaller and more compact soap box, reducing inspection and shipping costs during express delivery. The concealed drain plate also enhances the overall appearance of the soap box, minimizing the impact of a protruding drain plate or outlet on its appearance. Furthermore, suction cups added to the bottom support plate improve stability. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1-4 , the embodiments of the present utility model provide a technical solution: a soap box with a water drainage structure, which includes a box body 1 for storing soap. The box body 1 is a flat disc shape with an open top. Support plates 2 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the box body 1, and the support plates 2 are integrally formed with the box body 1. The inner wall of the box body 1 inclines inward and is equidistantly provided with a plurality of convex ribs 3. A diversion groove 4 is formed between adjacent convex ribs 3. A hollow structure is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the box body 1, and a diversion structure is arranged between the two support plates 2. The diversion structure is located directly below the hollow structure.

[0024] Box body:

[0025] A cavity with an open top and a flat shape, used for placing soap;

[0026] Support surface: The bottom surface is designed with a structure in which raised lines and grooves alternate, such as wavy lines / ribbed convex ribs, to lift the soap and avoid contact with accumulated water. The grooves serve as water diversion channels.

[0027] Hollow character area:

[0028] Located in the central area at the bottom of the box body, hollowed out to form the outline of the character "Jian";

[0029] Function: Concentrate and receive the water droplets flowing from the grooves on the support surface, and quickly drain them. <�

[0030] Diversion plate:

[0031] Position: Fixed directly below the hollow area of the character "Jian" at the bottom of the box body;

[0032] Structural features: Inclined design: at an angle of 10° - 20° with the horizontal plane; Extension direction: extending from the bottom of the hollow area to the outer edge of the soap box;

[0033] Diversion surface: A smooth arc-shaped or flat plate body, guiding the water flow to flow in a specific direction and discharging the water

[0034] The hollow structure is composed of a number of strip-shaped grooves, and the number of strip-shaped grooves as a whole forms the shape of the character "Jian".

[0035] On the inner wall of the support plate 2, a guiding groove is provided. The diversion structure includes two clamping plates 5 which can be inserted into the guiding groove. Inside the clamping plate 5, a diversion plate 6 is connected. In the middle of the diversion plate 6, a drainage groove 7 is provided, and the diversion plate 6 is at an angle of 15 degrees with the horizontal.

[0036] The support plate 2 is detachably connected with a suction cup 8. The suction cup 8 can be connected to the bottom of the support plate by an adhesive method. The suction cup 8 can quickly adsorb to the porcelain surface on the water tank, increasing the stability effect.

[0037] The shape of the rib 3 is wavy or ridged.

[0038] Water flow path: Soap water accumulation → The support surface is provided with raised ribs and grooves → The accumulated water converges to the hollow area of the "simple" character → Drips onto the diversion plate → Slides along the inclined plate surface to the drainage outlet at the front end of the diversion plate → Drains out of the box. The diversion plate solves the problem of water backflow directly below the hollow area and realizes active drainage.

[0039] The components of the present utility model, namely, 1. box body; 2. support plate; 3. rib; 4. diversion groove; 5. clamping plate; 6. diversion plate; 7. drainage groove; 8. suction cup, are all common standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structures and principles can all be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or obtained through conventional experimental methods. The present utility model solves the problems that the soap box is not easy to drain water, not clean enough, and is relatively inconvenient to use as a whole. Through the mutual combination of the above components, the inner wall support surface of the box body of the present utility model is designed as a structure with alternating raised lines and grooves, such as wavy or ridged ribs, to lift the soap to avoid contact with accumulated water. The grooves serve as water guiding channels. The bottom of the box body is designed with a hollow structure to achieve the water draining effect, which is both beautiful and can drain water. The diversion plate of the soap box is hidden under the draining soap box, which not only ensures that the soap liquid flowing down from the draining holes of the soap box is drained in time, but also avoids the problem that the softening of the soap body is caused by the accumulation of soap liquid and evaporation. Hiding the diversion plate makes the volume of the soap box smaller. There is no need to design a prominent diversion plate on the surface of the soap box, so the soap box is smaller and more compact. During express delivery, the volume and freight are reduced. Hiding the diversion plate makes the appearance of the soap box better-looking and more beautiful, reducing the impact of the prominent diversion plate or diversion opening on the overall appearance of the soap box. In addition, a suction cup is added to the bottom support plate to improve the support stability.
