Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cabinet handle technology, and in particular to a simple external handle. Background Technology
[0002] As the core storage facility in modern homes and commercial spaces, kitchen cabinets have door handles that are not only key accessories for enabling opening and closing, but also important elements for reflecting the overall design style. Kitchen cabinets are one of the devices used to store kitchen tableware, ingredients, seasonings, and auxiliary kitchen utensils for food processing. Existing cabinets are usually closed cabinets with handles installed on the cabinet doors for easy pulling.
[0003] To ensure structural strength, most existing exterior handles on the market use sheet metal with a thickness of ≥2.5mm. Some European-style handles are even thicker than 5mm, and are decorated with raised textures, carvings, etc., giving them a heavy overall look. This makes the production process more complicated and results in higher material costs. In addition, the handles are not simple enough, which can easily lead to aesthetic fatigue and reduce the usability.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a simple external handle. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a simple external handle.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A simple external handle includes a handle body, with reinforcing ribs provided along the length of the inner end of the handle body, and rounded transition ends provided at the corners of both ends of the handle body. The rear end of the handle body is provided with two mounting holes at the connection end with the mounting surface. The handle body is tightly connected to the cabinet door panel by bolts through the two mounting holes at the rear end of the handle. The threaded design in the mounting holes ensures the firmness of the connection and avoids loosening during use.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model: the handle body is flat and elongated, with an overall length of 200mm-800mm, a width of 15mm-40mm, and a thickness of 1.0mm-1.8mm. The reinforcing rib has a thickness of 1.5mm-3.0mm and a width of 5mm-10mm. The flat and elongated design disperses the pulling force of the hand. The reinforcing rib, which is set along the length of the inner end, is integrally formed with the handle body, forming a composite structure of handle body + reinforcing rib. This enhances the handle's resistance to bending under force, ensuring that even if the body is relatively thin, it can still stably withstand the pulling force of opening and closing the cabinet door panel.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: the front end of the handle body is a complete planar structure, and both the handle body and the reinforcing rib are made of aluminum alloy. The handle body and the reinforcing rib are integrally die-cast. With the complete planar structure at the front end of the handle body, there are no raised textures, carvings, or other redundant decorations. The overall style is simple and elegant, which can be adapted to various home design styles and avoids aesthetic fatigue. The integral die-casting of the handle body and the reinforcing rib reduces the multiple processing steps of traditional handles, shortens the production cycle, is suitable for mass production, and is thinner overall, thus reducing production costs.
[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: the outer surfaces of the handle body and the reinforcing rib are both treated with matte anodizing, and the two mounting holes are provided with connecting threads for connecting bolts. The matte anodizing treatment of the handle body and the reinforcing rib enhances the surface wear resistance and corrosion resistance, extends the service life, and makes it less prone to fingerprints and easier to clean.
[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model: the cross-section of the handle body is rectangular, and the four sides of the handle body are all straight edges, and the connection between each side and the front and back is rounded. The rounded corners at the connection enhance the safety during use and prevent bumps and scratches, while also improving the tactile comfort.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the radius of the arc transition end is 10mm-25mm, the arc transition end smoothly transitions with the long side of the handle body, and the radius of curvature at the transition point is 5mm-15mm.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a simple external handle with the following advantages:
[0014] 1. This utility model features a flat, elongated, and complete planar structure for the handle body, free from raised textures, carvings, or other redundant decorations. Its overall style is simple and elegant, adaptable to various home design styles, avoiding aesthetic fatigue. The handle body and reinforcing ribs are made of aluminum alloy, and after matte anodizing, the surface's wear resistance and corrosion resistance are enhanced, extending its service life. It is also less prone to fingerprints, making it easy to clean. The handle body's thickness is significantly lower than traditional handles, greatly reducing material usage and lowering production and material costs. Combined with the one-piece die-cast aluminum alloy reinforcing ribs, weight reduction is achieved while maintaining structural strength. Furthermore, the one-piece die-casting process reduces the multiple processing steps of traditional handles, shortening the production cycle and making it suitable for mass production. Its overall thinness further reduces production costs and enhances the practicality of the simple, externally designed handle.
[0015] 2. This utility model features two threaded mounting holes at the rear end, allowing for direct bolt fixation to the cabinet door panel. The installation process is simple and requires no complex accessories. The handle has rounded transition ends at both corners, and the sides and the connection points to the front and back are also rounded, which enhances safety during use, prevents bumps and scratches, improves tactile comfort, and enhances the usability of the simple exterior handle.

[0022] 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.
[0023] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0024] Example: Please refer to Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0025] A simple external handle includes a handle body 1. The inner end of the handle body 1 is provided with a reinforcing rib 2 along the length direction. The corners at both ends of the handle body 1 are provided with arc transition ends 3. The rear end of the handle body 1 is provided with two mounting holes 4 at the connection end with the mounting surface. The handle body 1 is tightly connected to the cabinet door panel by bolts through the two mounting holes 4 at the rear end of the handle. The thread design in the mounting holes 4 ensures the firmness of the connection and avoids loosening during use.
[0026] In this embodiment, the handle body 1 is preferably flat and elongated. The overall length of the handle body 1 is 200mm-800mm, the width is 15mm-40mm, and the thickness is 1.0mm-1.8mm. The thickness of the reinforcing rib 2 is 1.5mm-3.0mm, and the width is 5mm-10mm. The flat and elongated design disperses the pulling force of the hand. The reinforcing rib 2, which is set along the length direction at the inner end, is integrally formed with the handle body 1 to form a composite structure of handle body 1 + reinforcing rib 2. This enhances the handle's resistance to bending under force and ensures that even if the body thickness is relatively thin, it can still stably withstand the pulling force of opening and closing the cabinet door panel.
[0027] In this embodiment, the front end of the handle body 1 is preferably a complete planar structure. Both the handle body 1 and the reinforcing rib 2 are made of aluminum alloy. The handle body 1 and the reinforcing rib 2 are integrally die-cast. With the complete planar structure at the front end of the handle body 1, there are no raised textures, carvings or other redundant decorations. The overall style is simple and elegant, which can be adapted to various home design styles and avoids aesthetic fatigue. The integral die-casting of the handle body 1 and the reinforcing rib 2 reduces the multiple processing steps of traditional handles, shortens the production cycle, is suitable for mass production, and is relatively thin, which reduces the production cost.
[0028] In this embodiment, the outer surfaces of the handle body 1 and the reinforcing rib 2 are preferably treated with matte anodizing. The two mounting holes 4 are provided with connecting threads for connecting bolts. The matte anodizing treatment of the handle body 1 and the reinforcing rib 2 enhances the surface wear resistance and corrosion resistance, extends the service life, and makes it less prone to fingerprints and easier to clean.
[0029] In this embodiment, the handle body 1 preferably has a rectangular cross-section. All four sides of the handle body 1 are straight edges, and the connection between each side and the front and back is rounded. The rounded corners at the connection enhance safety during use, preventing bumps and scratches, and also improve the tactile comfort.
[0030] In this embodiment, the preferred arc radius of the arc transition end 3 is 10mm-25mm, and the arc transition end 3 smoothly transitions with the long side of the handle body 1 with a curvature radius of 5mm-15mm at the transition point.
[0031] Working Principle: In this embodiment, a simple external handle is used to securely connect the handle body 1 to the cabinet door panel via bolts through two mounting holes 4 at the rear end of the handle body 1. The threaded design within the mounting holes 4 ensures a firm connection and prevents loosening during use. After installation, the front surface of the handle body 1 provides a stable contact area for hand application, while the rounded transition end 3 prevents friction damage between the hand and the corner during opening and closing. As a directly load-bearing component, the handle body 1 disperses hand pulling force through its flat, elongated design. The reinforcing rib 2, set along the length of the inner end, is integrally formed with the body, creating a composite structure of handle body 1 + reinforcing rib 2. This enhances the handle's resistance to bending under load, ensuring that even with a relatively thin body, it can stably withstand the pulling force of opening and closing the cabinet door panel. The aluminum alloy material itself has good mechanical properties, and the matte anodizing treatment creates an oxide film layer that isolates air, moisture, and daily stains, preventing the handle from rusting or corroding and ensuring structural stability and a clean appearance even after long-term use.
[0032] 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. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
