Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drawer technology, and in particular to an assembly structure for a drawer front panel. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese Patent Document No. CN119744131A, dated April 1, 2025, discloses a method for assembling a front panel onto a drawer sidewall. The drawer sidewall has a connecting device for connecting the front panel and the drawer sidewall, an end facing the front panel to be connected, and a marking device for marking positions for drilling holes in the front panel. The marking device protrudes from the end of the drawer sidewall. The method includes the following steps: marking the positions for drilling holes on the front panel using the marking device on the drawer sidewall, and inserting a drill hole into the front panel at the marked position. The front panel of this drawer is a single-layer board, which limits design flexibility. For example, using expensive and aesthetically pleasing decorative materials for the front panel would result in high costs and generally low structural strength. Using inexpensive, high-strength structural materials would make the drawer appear cheap.

[0003] Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an assembly structure for a drawer front panel that is simple and reasonable in structure, high in strength, beautiful and elegant, low in maintenance cost and highly practical, so as to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0005] An assembly structure for a drawer front panel designed for this purpose includes a front panel and a drawer body. The front panel includes an outer panel and an inner panel that are connected to each other. A front connecting part is provided on the drawer body. An assembly part is provided between the front connecting part and the outer panel or the inner panel. The front connecting part connects to the outer panel or the inner panel through the assembly part, so that the front panel is fixedly assembled on the drawer body.

[0006] The drawer body includes a side panel, the front end of which is provided with a front connecting part, and an assembly part is provided between the front connecting part and the inner panel. The front connecting part is connected to the inner panel through the assembly part.

[0007] The bottom of the inner panel is bent outward or inward with a first supporting edge, and the bottom of the side panel is bent inward with a second supporting edge. The inner panel is supported on the second supporting edge by the first supporting edge.

[0008] The inner panel has positioning edges at both ends, and the side panel has a bent part at the top, which rests against the positioning edges.

[0009] The inner panel has a bent edge that bends outward or inward at the top. The two ends of the bent edge are respectively provided with a first positioning surface, and the inner side of the side panel is provided with a second positioning surface. The inner panel is positioned between the two side panels of the drawer body by the cooperation of the first positioning surface and the second positioning surface.

[0010] A first fixed connection part is provided between the outer panel and the inner panel, and the outer panel and the inner panel are connected by the first fixed connection part. Alternatively, the outer panel may be provided with a detachable connector, and a second fixed connection may be provided between the connector and the inner panel. The connector and the inner panel may be connected by the second fixed connection to connect the outer panel and the inner panel.

[0011] A third fixed connection is provided between the first support edge and the second support edge, and the first support edge and the second support edge are connected by the third fixed connection.

[0012] The front panel also includes a decorative panel. The outer panel has several first positioning members and second positioning members arranged sequentially up and down. The decorative panel is positioned between the first positioning members and the second positioning members. The inner panel has a decorative part, and the decorative panel covers the outside of the decorative part.

[0013] The side panel includes an outer panel and an inner panel that are positioned and fitted together. A fourth fixed connection part is provided between the outer panel and the inner panel, and the outer panel and the inner panel are connected by the fourth fixed connection part.

[0014] The drawer body also includes a back panel and a bottom panel; The front connecting part is located at the front end of the inner panel, and the rear connecting part is located at the rear end of the inner panel. A fifth fixed connecting part is provided between the rear connecting part and the back panel. The back panel and the side panel are connected by the fifth fixed connecting part. The inner panel, inner panel body and back panel are each provided with a positioning and mounting part, and the bottom plate is positioned and mounted on the positioning and mounting part.

[0015] In the drawer front panel assembly structure of this utility model, the front panel includes an outer panel and an inner panel that are connected to each other. The front connecting part connects the outer panel or the inner panel through the assembly part, so that the front panel is fixedly assembled to the drawer body. The outer panel can be made of expensive and beautiful decorative materials, while the inner panel can be made of inexpensive and high-strength structural materials. This balances aesthetics with improved structural strength of the front panel, giving the drawer a high-end feel without increasing costs. In addition, the front panel adopts a double-layer board structure, which can improve the impact resistance and deformation resistance of the front panel. Furthermore, if one of the outer panel or the inner panel is damaged, only the outer panel or the inner panel can be replaced, without replacing the entire front panel, thus reducing drawer maintenance costs.
