Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of kitchen and bathroom daily necessities, and specifically refers to a sink drain basket. Background Technology

[0002] Sink drain baskets are a common item in modern kitchens. They are typically used to filter food scraps and prevent the sink drain from getting clogged.

[0003] Currently, most sink drain baskets on the market have several openings at the bottom for draining. When there is a lot of food residue inside, the basket must be inverted and poured into the food waste bin. This method easily spills the food residue inside the basket, significantly impacting kitchen hygiene. Due to this inverted design issue, a new type of sink drain basket has emerged. Its bottom is designed with a perforated plate that can be opened and closed. The plate is connected to the basket on one side by a hinge or pivot, and locked on the other side by a locking mechanism. Users must first unlock the locking mechanism before the plate can be opened along the hinge to empty the accumulated residue. After emptying, one hand must lift the plate while the other closes the locking mechanism, making the operation extremely inconvenient and resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a sink drain basket that can be easily operated with one hand, thereby improving the user experience of the sink drain basket.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:

[0006] A sink drain basket includes a basket body with a drain opening at the bottom. A drain plate that seals the drain opening is hinged to the edge of the drain opening, and the drain plate has several drain holes. A button hole with an upper opening is provided on the inner side wall of the basket body. The button hole forms a spring mounting platform and a sliding rod cavity through a partition. A button is installed in the button hole. The bottom of the button is formed with a sliding rod that slides up and down along the sliding rod cavity and a spring locking post. A return spring is sleeved on the spring locking post, and the bottom of the return spring abuts against the upper end face of the spring mounting platform. A fixing hook is provided on the top of the drain plate on the side away from the hinge end. A locking edge for fixing the hook is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of the button hole. An abutment part is provided at the bottom of the sliding rod. When the button is driven to move against the spring force of the return spring, the abutment part drives the fixing hook to no longer lock onto the locking edge.

[0007] The present invention is further provided with a guide slope at the upper end of the fixing hook.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the fixing hook and the drain plate are integrally injection molded.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a guide tube is formed on the spring mounting platform, and the reset spring is located inside the guide tube.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the side wall of the button is provided with a limiting hook, and the side wall of the basket is provided with a limiting opening adapted to the limiting hook.

[0011] The present invention is further provided that the upper end of the basket body is provided with a flange, and one side of the flange is provided with an outwardly extending hand handle.

[0012] The outstanding and beneficial technical effects of this utility model compared to the prior art are:

[0013] 1. This utility model enables the locking and unlocking of the drain plate by pressing the button with one hand, and the drain plate can be easily opened by gravity. When closing, simply push the drain plate upward to lock it using the cooperation of the fixing hook and the locking edge, which greatly improves the overall convenience.

[0014] 2. The inclined surface design of the guide wire in this utility model makes it easier for the bottom of the slide rod to drive the fixed hook to disengage from the locking edge, making the operation faster; the one-piece molding adopted can enhance the structural strength and facilitate manufacturing.

[0015] 3. The matching limiting hook and limiting port provided in this utility model can effectively limit the upward travel of the button, so that it can be pressed within a reasonable range.

[0016] 4. The flange provided by this utility model can be easily installed and snapped on, while the handheld part can be easily gripped. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. See also: Figures 1-3 :

[0026] A sink drain basket includes a basket body 1 with a drain opening at the bottom. A drain plate 2, which seals the drain opening, is hinged to the edge of the drain opening. The drain plate 2 has several drain holes 20. A button hole 10 with an upper opening is provided on the inner side wall of the basket body 1. The button hole 10 forms a spring mounting platform 12 and a sliding rod cavity 13 through a partition 11. A button 3 is installed in the button hole 10. The bottom of the button 3 is formed with a sliding rod 30 that slides up and down along the sliding rod cavity 13 and a spring-loaded retaining post 31. A return spring 4 is sleeved on the connecting post 31, and the bottom of the return spring 4 abuts against the upper end face of the spring mounting platform 12. A fixing hook 21 is provided on the top of the drain plate 2 on the side away from the hinge end. A locking edge 100 for fixing the hook 21 is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of the button hole 10. A stop part 300 is provided at the bottom of the slide rod 30. When the drive button 3 moves against the elastic force of the return spring 4, the stop part 300 drives the fixing hook 21 to no longer lock onto the locking edge 100.

[0027] When the sink drain basket needs to be opened during use, simply press the button to overcome the spring force of the return spring. The fixing hook 21 will be moved by the abutment part 300 at the bottom of the slide rod 30, so that the fixing hook 21 is no longer stuck on the locking edge 100. The drain board can then be opened along the hinge. The residue on the drain board can be effectively turned over by gravity or by the weight of the weight, and can be easily poured into the kitchen waste bin.

[0028] When closing, the user can simply lift the drain plate upwards with one hand to allow the fixing hook 21 to engage with the locking edge 100, which is very convenient.

[0029] Preferably, the upper end of the fixing hook 21 is provided with a guide slope 210.

[0030] In the above structure, the guide slope 210 can help the user to separate the fixed hook from the locking edge 100 by pressing the button 3 with very little force, which is more convenient.

[0031] Preferably, the fixing hook 21 and the drain plate 2 are integrally injection molded, thereby improving the overall structural strength.

[0032] Preferably, a guide tube 120 is formed on the spring mounting platform 12, and the reset spring 4 is located inside the guide tube 120.

[0033] In the above structure, the guide tube 120 can easily prevent the spring 4 from twisting to both sides during deformation, thus ensuring the normal use of the spring.

[0034] Preferably, the side wall of the button 3 is provided with a limiting hook 32, and the side wall of the basket 1 is provided with a limiting opening 14 that is adapted to the limiting hook 32.

[0035] In the above structure, the limiting hook 32 and the limiting port 14 can limit the upward travel of the spring drive and prevent the button from popping out completely from the top of the button hole 10.

[0036] Preferably, the upper end of the basket body 1 is provided with a flange 15, and a handhold 16 extending outward is provided on one side of the flange 15.

[0037] In the above structure, the flange 15 facilitates the installation and placement of the drain basket, while the handle 16 facilitates the user's grip.

[0038] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
