Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flipping mechanism technology, and in particular to a flipping mechanism and a door and equipment containing the same. Background Technology

[0002] Many devices require a flipping motion during use, especially those with doors, which often need to be flipped to open. Existing flipping mechanisms typically revolve around a fixed pivot. In practical use, the fixed pivot can be installed at the ends or outside of the two flipping components, but this is aesthetically unappealing. If the fixed pivot 1-1 is installed inside the two flipping components 1-2 and 1-3, sufficient flipping space is required; otherwise, flipping will be impossible due to insufficient space. However, sufficient flipping space requires a large gap 1-4 between the two flipping components 1-2 and 1-3. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention provides a flipping mechanism and a door and device including the same. The flipping mechanism includes a fixed support, a flipping support, a movable groove formed in the fixed support, and a flipping shaft mounted on the flipping support. The flipping shaft is confined within the movable groove and is adapted to move along one end of the groove to the other end, causing the flipping support to flip outward relative to the fixed support from a first position to a second position. Using this invention, the flipping support can simultaneously flip outward relative to the fixed support and move outward relative to the fixed support, providing sufficient flipping space for the flipping support. This allows the flipping mechanism to have sufficient flipping space when installed inside two flipping components, enabling free flipping, and is particularly suitable for recessed doors that lack sufficient flipping space.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] One aspect of this utility model is to provide a flipping mechanism. The flipping mechanism includes a fixed support, a flipping support, a movable groove formed in the fixed support, and a flipping shaft mounted on the flipping support; wherein the flipping shaft is located within the movable groove and is adapted to move along one end of the movable groove to the other end to flip the flipping support outward from a first position to a second position relative to the fixed support.

[0006] Optionally, the flipping shaft includes a first flipping shaft and a second flipping shaft; the movable groove includes a first movable groove and a second movable groove; wherein the first flipping shaft is located within the first movable groove and is adapted to move along the first movable groove; the second flipping shaft is located within the second movable groove and is adapted to move along the second movable groove.

[0007] Optionally, the first flip axis is also adapted to return along the first movable groove from its other end to its one end, so that the flip support continues to flip outward relative to the fixed support from the second position to the third position around the second flip axis.

[0008] Optionally, the first movable groove is located outside the second movable groove and its length is less than the length of the second movable groove, so that the flip support is adapted to flip outward; the other end of the second movable groove is equidistant from both ends of the first movable groove.

[0009] Optionally, the line connecting one end of the second movable groove and one end of the first movable groove is perpendicular to the line connecting the other end of the second movable groove and one end of the first movable groove, so that the flip support is adapted to be vertically flipped from the first position to the third position.

[0010] Optionally, the flipping mechanism further includes a damping plate installed on the fixed support; the damping plate is adapted to abut against the second flipping shaft to limit the second flipping shaft from sliding toward one end of the second movable groove when the flipping support flips outward and to make the second flipping shaft adaptable to be held at any position in the second movable groove.

[0011] Optionally, the damping plate has a damping surface; the extending direction of the damping surface is set at a certain angle to the length direction of the second movable groove, so that the damping surface is suitable for abutting against the second flip shaft.

[0012] Another aspect of this utility model is that it also provides a door. The door includes a door frame and a door body installed within the door frame, and also includes the flipping mechanism described in this utility model; wherein, the fixed support is installed on the inner side of the door frame, and the flipping support is installed on the inner side of the door body; the door body opens outward relative to the door frame by flipping the flipping support outward relative to the fixed support.

[0013] Another aspect of this invention is that it also provides a device. This device includes the door described in this invention.

[0014] Optionally, the device includes a housing, and the door frame is formed in the housing.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution provided by this utility model has beneficial effects.

[0016] For example, by using this utility model, the flip support can flip outward relative to the fixed support while moving outward relative to the fixed support, thus providing sufficient flipping space for the flip support to flip. This allows the flipping mechanism to have sufficient flipping space when installed on the inner side of the two flipping components, enabling it to flip freely. It is especially suitable for embedded doors that do not have sufficient flipping space.

[0017] For example, this utility model also includes a damping plate to restrict the second flipping shaft from sliding down toward one end of the second movable groove when the flipping support flips outward, and to make the second flipping shaft suitable for being held at any position in the second movable groove. That is, it can restrict the flipping support from sliding down in the opposite direction during the flipping process and enable the flipping support to stay at any position during the flipping process.

[0039] To make the objectives, features, and beneficial effects of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described below are merely for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Furthermore, descriptions of identical or similar components in different embodiments, as well as descriptions of components, features, effects, etc., belonging to the prior art, may be omitted.

[0040] Furthermore, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to this invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, not the entire structure. Also, the same or similar reference numerals may be used in the drawings to refer to the same or similar components in different embodiments.

[0041] This utility model embodiment provides a flipping mechanism and a door and device including the same.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The flipping mechanism 100 provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes a fixed support 110, a flipping support 120, and flipping shafts 131 and 132. The fixed support 110 has movable grooves 111 and 112 formed thereon; the flipping shafts 131 and 132 are mounted on the flipping support 120; and the flipping shafts 131 and 132 are confined within the movable grooves 111 and 112, and are adapted to move along one end 111a and 112a of the movable grooves 111 and 112 to the other end 111b and 112b, thereby allowing the flipping support 120 to flip outward relative to the fixed support 110 from a first position A to a second position B.

[0043] In specific implementation, when the flipping shafts 131 and 132 move from one end 111a and 112a along the movable grooves 111 and 112 to the other end 111b and 112b, it is suitable to make the flipping support 120 move away from the fixed support 110, thereby providing sufficient flipping space for the flipping support 120 to flip.

[0044] Reference Figures 5 to 6 This utility model embodiment also provides a door 10 including the flipping mechanism 100.

[0045] In some embodiments, the door 10 is an embedded door and includes a door frame 11 and a door body 12 installed within the door frame 11. In this embodiment of the invention, the door body 12 can be flipped outward relative to the door frame 11 by a flipping mechanism 100.

[0046] In practice, the fixed support 110 is installed on the inside of the door frame 11, and the flip support 12 is installed on the inside of the door body 12. By flipping the flip support 120 outward relative to the fixed support 110, the door body 12 can be flipped outward relative to the door frame 11 and opened.

[0047] In some embodiments, the fixed support 110 and the flip support 120 can both be installed on the inside of the door frame 11 and the door body 12 using the mounting plate 123 and screws 124.

[0048] In other embodiments, the installation method of the fixed support 110 on the door frame 11 and the installation method of the flip support 120 on the door body 12 can also be achieved by any other known conventional technical means in the prior art, and no limitation is made here.

[0049] In existing technology, when the flipping mechanism is installed on the inside of the door and a fixed pivot is used to flip the door outward relative to the door frame, the obstruction of the door frame prevents the door from having sufficient space to flip outward. For example, when Figure 5When the first flip axis 131 and the second flip axis 132 shown are fixed rotating axes, no matter whether the flip support 120 rotates around the first flip axis 131 or the second flip axis 132, it will not be able to flip due to insufficient flip space caused by the obstruction of the bottom door frame 11 of the door body 12.

[0050] In this embodiment of the invention, when the flipping shafts 131 and 132 move from one end 111a and 112a of the movable grooves 111 and 112 to the other end 111b and 112b, it is suitable to move the flipping support 120 away from the fixed support 110, thereby providing sufficient flipping space for the flipping support 120 to flip outward, so that the door body 12 can move outward while flipping outward relative to the door frame 11, thereby providing sufficient flipping space for the flipping of the door body 12.

[0051] In some embodiments, the flip shafts 131 and 132 include a first flip shaft 131 and a second flip shaft 132. Correspondingly, the movable slots 111 and 112 include a first movable slot 111 and a second movable slot 112. The first flip shaft 131 is confined within the first movable slot 111 and adapted to move along the first movable slot 111; the second flip shaft 132 is confined within the second movable slot 112 and adapted to move along the second movable slot 112.

[0052] In specific implementation, when the first flipping shaft 131 moves from one end 111a to the other end 111b along the first movable groove 111, and simultaneously the second flipping shaft 131 moves from one end 112a to the other end 112b along the second movable groove 112, it is suitable to cause the flipping support 120 to move away from the fixed support 110 while flipping from the first position A to the second position B relative to the fixed support 110. This provides sufficient flipping space for the flipping support 120, thereby allowing the door body 12 to move outward while flipping outward relative to the door frame 11, away from the obstruction of the bottom door frame 11, and providing sufficient flipping space for the door body 12 to flip. Figure 6 As shown.

[0053] It is understood that when the first flipping shaft 131 moves from one end 111a of the first movable groove 111 toward the other end 111b, and the second flipping shaft 131 moves from one end 112a of the second movable groove 112 toward the other end 112b, it is also suitable to cause the flipping support 120 to flip relative to the fixed support 110 from the first position A to any position between the first position A and the second position B, and to move away from the fixed support 110 while flipping.

[0054] In some embodiments, the first movable groove 111 is located outside the second movable groove 112, and the length of the first movable groove 111 is less than the length of the second movable groove 112. This makes it suitable for the flip support 120 to flip outward relative to the fixed support 110.

[0055] In a specific implementation, the first flipping shaft 131 is also adapted to return from its other end 111b to its one end 111a along the first movable groove 111, so that the flipping support 120 continues to flip outward relative to the fixed support 110 from the second position B to the third position C around the second flipping shaft 132.

[0056] In some embodiments, the distance between the other end 112b of the second movable groove 112 and the two ends 111a, 111b of the first movable groove 111 is equal. This is suitable for the first rotating shaft 131 to return along the first movable groove 111 from its other end 111b to its one end 111a, while the rotating support 120 continues to rotate outward relative to the fixed support 110 from the second position B to the third position C around the second rotating shaft 132.

[0057] It is understood that when the first rotating shaft 131 moves along the first movable groove 111 from its other end 111b toward its one end 111a, it is also adapted to cause the rotating support 120 to rotate about the second rotating shaft 132 relative to the fixed support 110 from the second position B toward any position between the second position B and the third position C.

[0058] In some embodiments, the line connecting one end 112a of the second movable groove 112 and one end 111a of the first movable groove 111 is perpendicular to the line connecting the other end 112b of the second movable groove 112 and one end 111a of the first movable groove 111. This allows the flip support 120 to flip from the first position A through a vertical angle of 90 degrees to the third position C, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring vertical flipping.

[0059] In a further embodiment, one end 112a of the second movable groove 112 is horizontally aligned with one end 111a of the first movable groove 111, and the other end 112b of the second movable groove 112 is vertically aligned with one end 111a of the first movable groove 111. This allows the flip support 120 to be adapted to flip from a vertical position (i.e., first position A) to a horizontal position (i.e., third position C) by a vertical angle of 90 degrees.

[0060] In some embodiments, the other end 111b of the first movable groove 111 is also adapted to extend outward relative to the other end 112b of the second movable groove 112. This allows the flip support 120 to be adapted to rotate from the first position A to the second position B by less than 90 degrees.

[0061] Reference Figure 8 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the flipping mechanism 100 further includes a damping plate 140 mounted on the fixed support 110.

[0062] In a specific implementation, the damping plate 140 is adapted to abut against the second flip shaft 132. In this way, the second flip shaft 132 can be restricted from sliding down towards one end 112a of the second movable groove 112 when the flip support 120 flips outward, thereby preventing the flip support 120 from being hindered from flipping outward relative to the fixed support 110 due to the sliding of the second flip shaft 132. In turn, it can prevent the door body 12 from sliding down and hindering the outward flipping of the door body 12 when it flips outward relative to the door frame 11.

[0063] In some embodiments, the damping plate 140 has a damping surface 141. Furthermore, the extending direction of the damping surface 141 is set at a certain angle to the length direction of the second movable groove 112, so that the damping surface 141 is adapted to abut against the second flip shaft 132.

[0064] In some embodiments, the damping plate 140 is made of an elastic damping material and abuts against the second flip shaft 132 through its own elastic deformation. After abutting, the second flip shaft 132 is restricted from sliding down freely due to friction.

[0065] In some embodiments, the damping plate 140 may also be made of metal, and the micro-deformation characteristics of the metal material enable it to abut against the second flip shaft 132.

[0066] In a specific implementation, the second flipping shaft 132 is also adapted to remain in any position when it comes into contact with the damping plate 140, based on the friction between it and the damping plate 140 or the micro-deformation characteristics of the damping plate 140, so that the flipping support 120 can remain in any flipping position when flipping relative to the fixed support 110, thereby enabling the door body 12 to remain in any flipping position when flipping outward relative to the door frame 11.

[0067] In some embodiments, the damping plate 140 is also adapted to always abut against the second tilting shaft 132, that is, the second tilting shaft 132 remains abutted against the damping plate 140 at any position within the second movable groove 112. This allows the second tilting shaft 132 to remain at any position within the second movable groove 112, thereby enabling the tilting support 120 to remain at any position during outward tilting, and consequently enabling the door body 12 to remain at any tilting position when tilting outward relative to the door frame 11. The arbitrary positions include any position between the first position A and the second position B, any position between the second position B and the third position C, and any position between the first position A and the third position C.

[0068] Reference Figure 10 This embodiment of the present invention also provides a device 1. The device 1 includes a door 10 provided in this embodiment of the present invention. The door 10 is equipped with a flipping mechanism 100 provided in this embodiment of the present invention.

[0069] In some embodiments, the device further includes a housing 20. The door frame 11 may also be formed in the housing 20.
