Detailed Implementation Methods

[0050] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0051] like Figure 1-12 As shown, this utility model includes a lower bowl basket that facilitates users in taking and putting away tableware. It includes a base frame 1, a bowl basket body 2, a positioning mechanism 3, and a rotating connection mechanism 4. The base frame 1 can be pushed and pulled to be connected to a bowl cabinet 100. The bowl basket body 2 has a storage space 20 for storing tableware. The storage space 20 is provided with multiple dividers 200 that are connected to the bottom of the bowl basket body 2 and divide the storage space 20 into several storage areas to facilitate the placement of different tableware.

[0052] The bowl basket body 2 is rotatably mounted on the base frame 1 via a rotating connecting mechanism 4. The positioning mechanism 3 is located between the bowl basket body 2 and the base frame 1 to position the bowl basket body 2 relative to the base frame 1. The bowl basket body 2 has a first positioning state and a second positioning state. In the first positioning state, the bowl basket body 2 and the base frame 1 can be pushed and pulled in and out of the cabinet 100 at the same time. In the second positioning state, the bowl basket body 2 is deflected relative to the base frame 1 to accommodate the user's placement or retrieval of tableware.

[0053] In this application, the cabinet 100 can be a regular cabinet, a sterilizer, or a dishwasher. When the main body 2 of the dish basket is in the first positioning state, the positioning mechanism 3 is locked in the first positioning state. The user holds the main body 2 of the dish basket and pushes or pulls the entire lower dish basket into or out of the cabinet 100. When the user needs to place or retrieve tableware, the entire lower dish basket is pulled out. When retrieving tableware, if the tableware is in a position that is inconvenient for the user to retrieve or place far away, the main body 2 of the dish basket is rotated to overcome the locking force of the positioning mechanism 3 and disengage it from the first positioning state. After rotating the main body 2 of the dish basket to an angle that is convenient for the user to place or retrieve tableware, the positioning mechanism 3 automatically engages in the second positioning state. Without applying external force to the main body 2 of the dish basket, the main body 2 of the dish basket is fixed relative to the base frame 1, and the user can then place or retrieve tableware.

[0054] like Figure 12 As shown, this application, by setting the main body 2 of the dish basket to a rotating positioning method, is particularly convenient for people with disabilities, such as those with mobility impairments or wheelchair users. When a wheelchair user needs to retrieve tableware, they can rotate the main body 2 of the dish basket to make the space in the basket 20 empty or bring the tableware closer to the user. This allows them to easily retrieve tableware from the depths of the cabinet 100 while in a natural sitting position, without having to lean forward or stretch their arms, completely avoiding the risk of lower back strain or imbalance caused by excessive bending. It also eliminates the need to adjust the wheelchair's position to retrieve tableware, greatly simplifying the user experience.

[0055] Furthermore, the directional deflection design of the main body 2 of the dish basket allows the wheelchair to operate without having to be completely facing the cabinet 100. When the user approaches the cabinet from the side, they only need to rotate the lower dish basket to the corresponding side angle to reach all the tableware, solving the problem of blind spots caused by the limited turning radius of the wheelchair.

[0056] In addition, this application also uses dividers 200 to divide the accommodating space 20 into different placement areas, thereby making it convenient for users to place different tableware.

[0057] like Figures 2 to 6As shown in the figure, as a further embodiment, the rotating connection mechanism 4 includes a lower connecting plate 40 and an upper connecting plate 41. The lower connecting plate 40 is disposed on the base frame 1, and the upper connecting plate 41 is disposed at the bottom of the basket body 2 and is rotatably connected to the lower connecting plate 40. The lower connecting plate 40 is snapped into the base frame 1, and the upper connecting plate 41 is snapped into the basket body 2. In this embodiment, both the lower connecting plate 40 and the upper connecting plate 41 can be provided with snap-fit ​​parts 42 to snap into the corresponding basket body 2 or base frame 1, facilitating assembly work, enabling rapid installation, and improving production efficiency. It should also be noted that the upper connecting plate 41 and the lower connecting plate 40 can be rotatably connected through bearings.

[0058] like Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the positioning mechanism 3 includes a positioning groove group 30 and an elastic locking member 31. The positioning groove group 30 is disposed on the upper connecting plate 41, including a first positioning groove 300 corresponding to the first positioning state and a second positioning groove 301 corresponding to the second positioning state. The elastic locking member 31 is disposed on the lower connecting plate 40. When the bowl basket body 2 rotates to the first positioning state or the second positioning state, the elastic locking member 31 elastically engages with the corresponding first positioning groove 300 or second positioning groove 301 to achieve positioning. In this embodiment, two first positioning grooves 300 can be provided and symmetrically arranged along the rotation center of the bowl basket body 2. This allows the bowl basket body 2 to rotate 180 degrees and then be directly pushed into the cabinet 100 for easy user access. Several second positioning grooves 301 can be provided, allowing the user to adjust the bowl basket body 2 to an appropriate angle for convenient use.

[0059] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the elastic locking element 31 includes a spring 310, a spring 311, and a fixing screw 312. The lower connecting plate 40 has a mounting groove 313 at its bottom. The spring 310 is movably disposed in the mounting groove 313, with its head protruding from the top of the lower connecting plate 40 and abutting against the first positioning groove 300. The fixing screw 312 is located at the opening of the mounting groove 313, and the spring 311 is located between the fixing screw 312 and the spring 310, providing elasticity to the spring 310. Additionally, clearance grooves 314 can be provided on the left and right sides of the first positioning groove 300 to avoid the spring 310, thus facilitating user differentiation between the main body 2 of the bowl basket and the first positioning groove 300. It should be noted that although clearance grooves 314 are provided in this embodiment, friction exists between the main body 2 of the bowl basket and the base frame 1. Therefore, even when the spring 310 is in the clearance groove 314 position, the main body 2 of the bowl basket can still stop at that position.

[0060] like Figures 2 to 3 as well as Figures 7 to 8As shown, as a further embodiment, a rotating support 5 is also included. The rotating support 5 is disposed between the base frame 1 and the bowl basket body 2. The rotating support 5 is configured to transfer the load of the bowl basket body 2 to the base frame 1 and cooperate with the rotating connection mechanism 4 to realize the rotational movement of the bowl basket body 2 relative to the base frame 1. In this application, when the bowl basket body 2 is loaded with a large number of tableware, its load is large. Since the bowl basket body 2 is a frame structure, it is prone to deformation. In addition, the bowl basket body 2 needs to rotate in this application. Therefore, the rotating support 5 is added to cooperate with the rotating connection mechanism 4 to jointly support the bowl basket body 2 and evenly distribute the load on the bowl basket body 2 to the base frame 1.

[0061] like Figures 7 to 8 As shown, the rotating support 5 further includes an annular guide rail 50 and several sliders 51. The annular guide rail 50 is mounted on the base frame 1, and the sliders 51 are mounted on the bottom of the basket body 2. The sliders 51 are slidably engaged with the annular guide rail 50. In this embodiment, three or more sliders 51 are provided, preferably four, to facilitate the transfer of the load of the basket body 2 to the base frame 1. Additionally, the annular guide rail 50 is snapped onto the base frame 1, and the sliders 51 are snapped onto the bottom of the basket body 2. Similarly, the annular guide rail 50 and the sliders 51 are also snapped onto the corresponding basket body 2 or base frame 1 via snap-fit ​​parts 42, enabling quick installation.

[0062] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, to further improve the support performance of the base frame 1 and facilitate the maintenance of the entire lower basket, several reinforcing rod assemblies 12 are provided on both sides of the base frame 1 to enhance its support performance. Each reinforcing rod assembly 12 has a mounting base 13 detachably connected to its upper and lower parts, and the rotating wheel 11 is rotatably mounted on the mounting base 13. By setting the reinforcing rod assemblies 12, the support performance of the base frame 1 can be improved, and by making the mounting base 13 detachable, it is convenient for future maintenance and replacement of the rotating wheel.

[0063] It should be noted that the reinforcing rod assembly 12 consists of a U-shaped reinforcing rib 120 and an auxiliary rib 121. The two ends of the reinforcing rib 120 are connected to the upper and lower sides of the base frame 1, and the left and right sides of the base frame 1 are connected to the middle of the corresponding reinforcing rib 120. The middle of the auxiliary rib 121 is connected to the side of the corresponding base frame 1, and the two ends are connected to the corresponding reinforcing rib 120. The mounting base 13 includes a base 130 and a locking block 131. The base 130 is located at the bottom of the reinforcing rod assembly 12, and the locking block 131 is located at the top of the reinforcing rod assembly 12. The two are locked together by bolts, clamping the reinforcing rod assembly 12 between the base 130 and the locking block 131. The locking point is located at the connection between the base frame 1, the reinforcing rib 120, and the auxiliary rib 121.
