[0001] This utility model relates to the field of preservation devices, and in particular to a preservation device for classifying and preserving fruits. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards and health awareness continue to improve, their requirements for the freshness of fruits in daily life are also increasing. Therefore, ensuring the freshness of stored fruits is particularly important for meeting people's health and psychological needs.

[0003] However, there are many types of fruits, and the existing preservation devices on the market are not convenient to adjust the space at will. They cannot divide the space according to the size of the fruit. Users simply put different types of fruit in the same storage chamber, but different fruits cannot be stored together. For example, apples and watermelons cannot be stored together. Apples release ethylene gas, which will accelerate the ripening and rotting of watermelons. Therefore, this utility model proposes a preservation device for classifying and storing fruits to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing preservation devices, such as the inconvenience of adjusting the space, the inability to divide the space according to the size of the fruit, and the inability of users to place different types of fruit in the same storage chamber, which prevents different fruits from being stored together (e.g., apples and watermelons, as apples release ethylene gas, which accelerates the ripening and rotting of watermelons). This invention proposes a preservation device for classifying and storing fruit.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A fruit preservation device for sorting and storing fruits includes a main body and a door panel, wherein the door panel is rotatably connected to the front side of the main body.

Three placement plates are slidably connected to the rear inner wall of the main body of the preservation device. The left and right sides of the placement plates are slidably connected to the two mating rods, respectively.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the support mechanism includes: a sliding rod, a spring, and a fixing block; The sliding rod is slidably connected to the bottom of the placement plate, and the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the spring, which in turn is fixedly connected to the fixing block.

[0007] Furthermore, the sliding rod is automatically engaged into the positioning groove of the matching rod by the spring force, forming a multi-point height lock, ensuring that the placement plate is stable and can adapt to the storage needs of fruits of different sizes, avoiding fruit squeezing damage caused by shelf displacement.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the unlocking mechanism includes: a driving rod and a rotating rod; The driving rod is slidably connected to the bottom of the sliding rod, and the driving rod is rotatably connected to the rotating rod. The rotating rod is rotatably connected to the bottom of the placement plate, and the bottom of the sliding rod has a driving groove.

[0009] Furthermore, rotating the two rotating rods in tandem moves the rod horizontally at the bottom of the sliding rod, pushing the sliding rod to disengage from the cooperating rod, thus unlocking the current position of the placement plate. This allows for free adjustment of the placement plate's height, facilitating quick optimization of storage partitions and meeting the independent preservation needs of various types of fruits.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mating rod is provided with equally spaced mating grooves, and the outer side of the sliding rod slides in contact with the inner wall of the mating groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the docking groove provides standardized height settings to ensure precise and controllable interlayer spacing.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a vertical groove is provided on the rear inner wall of the main body of the preservation device, and the rear sides of the three placement plates are slidably connected to the inner wall of the vertical groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the vertical groove guides the placement plate to rise and fall smoothly, preventing tilting that could cause the fruit to roll off.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the driving rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the driving groove.

[0015] Furthermore, it drives the limited linkage path of the slot to ensure that the unlocking action is synchronized and effective.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the placement plate is provided with an installation groove, and the top of the sliding rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the vertical sliding groove.

[0017] Furthermore, the vertical groove constrains the direction of movement of the sliding rod, enhancing the reliability of the support. Beneficial effects

[0018] The sliding rod is automatically engaged into the positioning groove of the matching rod by the spring force, forming a multi-point height lock to ensure that the placement plate is stable and can adapt to the storage needs of fruits of different sizes, and avoid fruit squeezing and damage caused by shelf displacement. Rotating the two rotating rods in tandem moves the rod horizontally at the bottom of the sliding rod, pushing the sliding rod to disengage from the cooperating rod, thus unlocking the current position of the placement plate. This allows for free adjustment of the placement plate's height, facilitating quick optimization of storage partitions and meeting the independent preservation needs of various types of fruits. In this invention, the three placement plates can be independently adjusted in height by sliding with a connecting rod, flexibly dividing the preservation space, realizing the separate storage of fruits by category, avoiding accelerated spoilage caused by ethylene gas crosstalk, and solving the problem of quality deterioration caused by mixed storage.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Example

[0022] Reference Figures 1-4 A fruit preservation device for categorizing and storing fruits includes a main body 1 and a door panel 2. The door panel 2 is rotatably connected to the front side of the main body 1. The preservation device also includes... There are two sets of support mechanisms and unlocking mechanisms, and the support mechanisms work together with the unlocking mechanisms. The load-bearing mechanism includes: three placement plates 13 and two mating rods 3; Two mating rods 3 are fixedly installed on the left and right inner walls of the main body 1 of the preservation device, respectively. Three placement plates 13 are slidably connected to the rear inner wall of the main body 1 of the preservation device. The left and right sides of the placement plates 13 are slidably connected to the two mating rods 3, respectively.

[0023] With the above structure, the height of the three placement plates 13 can be adjusted independently by sliding the connecting rod 3, which can flexibly divide the preservation space, realize the classification and isolation of fruits, avoid the accelerated spoilage caused by ethylene gas crosstalk, and solve the problem of quality deterioration caused by mixed storage.

[0024] To achieve the positioning of the placement plate 13, the support mechanism includes: a sliding rod 4, a spring 5, and a fixing block 6; The sliding rod 4 is slidably connected to the bottom of the placement plate 13. The sliding rod 4 is fixedly connected to the spring 5, and the spring 5 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 6. The sliding rod 4 is automatically engaged into the positioning groove of the matching rod 3 by the pushing force of the spring 5, forming a multi-point height lock, ensuring that the placement plate 13 is stable in bearing the load, adapting to the storage needs of fruits of different sizes, and avoiding the displacement of the shelf that causes the fruits to be squeezed and damaged.

[0025] In order to unlock the placement plate 13, the unlocking mechanism includes: a drive rod 7 and a rotating rod 8; The driving rod 7 is slidably connected to the bottom of the sliding rod 4. The driving rod 7 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 8. The rotating rod 8 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the placement plate 13. The bottom of the sliding rod 4 has a driving groove 11. Rotating the two rotating rods 8 in conjunction with the driving rod 7 moves horizontally at the bottom of the sliding rod 4, pushing the sliding rod 4 to disengage from the cooperating rod 3. This unlocks the current position of the placement plate 13, allowing for free adjustment of the height of the placement plate 13. This facilitates quick optimization of storage partitions and meets the independent preservation needs of various types of fruits.

[0026] In order to support the placement plate 13, the mating rod 3 is provided with equally spaced docking grooves 9. The outer side of the sliding rod 4 slides in contact with the inner wall of the docking groove 9. The docking groove 9 provides standardized height settings to ensure that the interlayer spacing is precise and controllable.

[0027] In order to install the placement plates 13, a vertical groove 10 is provided on the inner rear wall of the main body 1 of the preservation device. The rear sides of the three placement plates 13 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the vertical groove 10. The vertical groove 10 guides the placement plates 13 to rise and fall smoothly, preventing the fruit from rolling off due to tilting.

[0028] In order to move the sliding rod 4, the top of the driving rod 7 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the driving groove 11, and the driving groove 11 limits the linkage path to ensure that the unlocking action is synchronous and effective.

[0029] To facilitate the installation of the sliding rod 4, an installation groove 12 is provided at the bottom of the placement plate 13. The top of the sliding rod 4 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the vertical groove. The vertical groove constrains the movement direction of the sliding rod 4 and enhances the reliability of the support.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the internal space of the main body 1 of the preservation device, simply rotate the two rotating rods 8 at the bottom of the placement plate 13. Rotating the two rotating rods 8 in conjunction with the rod 7 moves horizontally at the bottom of the sliding rod 4, pushing the sliding rod 4 to disengage from the cooperating rod 3. This unlocks the current position of the placement plate 13, allowing for free adjustment of the height of the placement plate 13. This facilitates quick optimization of storage partitions, meets the independent preservation needs of multiple types of fruits, achieves classified and isolated storage of fruits, avoids accelerated spoilage caused by ethylene gas crosstalk, and solves the problem of quality deterioration caused by mixed storage. After adjustment, release the two sliding rods 4. The sliding rods 4 are automatically engaged into the positioning groove of the cooperating rod 3 by the push of the spring 5, forming a multi-point height lock. This ensures that the placement plate 13 is stable in bearing weight, adapts to the storage needs of fruits of different volumes, and avoids damage to the fruits caused by shelf displacement.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto.
