Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage device technology, and in particular to a storage component and cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Common bathroom vanity designs typically employ a layout where various storage units are placed on internal shelves to meet users' daily storage needs. These units mostly use standardized frame or basket structures, with their openings pointing vertically upwards when laid flat on the shelves. While this conventional design is simple and practical, shorter users often need to tiptoe or use tools to reach items on higher shelves. This not only increases inconvenience but can also lead to instability when retrieving items, and even poses certain safety hazards. This design limitation results in a poor user experience for some, impacting the overall comfort of using the bathroom vanity. Utility Model Content

[0003] This utility model provides a storage component and cabinet, which aims to solve the problem that when the storage component is placed on the shelf with the opening facing upwards, it causes inconvenience for users to take out items.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A storage component for installation on a shelf in a cabinet; characterized in that it includes a storage body, the storage body having a storage cavity with an opening, the storage body being rotatably connected to the shelf in the cabinet, and the rotation axis of the storage component being arranged radially thereon, and a counterweight being provided in the storage cavity, such that the weight of the storage body on the side facing the user is greater than the weight of the storage body on the side away from the user, thereby causing the storage body to rotate relative to the shelf about its rotation axis under the action of the counterweight, so that the opening rotates toward the side with the greater weight.

[0006] The counterweight is located on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body, so that the opening faces the side where the counterweight is located.

[0007] Furthermore, the thickness of the bottom wall of the storage cavity on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body is greater than the thickness on the other side of the rotation axis of the storage body, so that the weight on one side of the bottom wall of the storage cavity is greater than the weight on the other side, and the side with the larger bottom wall thickness of the storage cavity constitutes the counterweight.

[0008] Furthermore, the thickness on one side of the rotating axis of the storage body extends from the end away from the rotating axis towards the rotating axis and gradually thins until it is the same as the thickness on the other side of the rotating axis of the storage body.

[0009] Furthermore, the counterweight is a slider, which is movably connected to the storage body. By moving the slider, the center of gravity of the storage body is changed, thereby changing the rotation angle of the storage body relative to the shelf under the action of the counterweight.

[0010] Furthermore, the inner wall of the storage cavity located on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body is provided with a sliding groove arranged along the axial direction of the storage cavity. The slider is slidably connected to the sliding groove, and the slider can stop at any position during the sliding process along the sliding groove.

[0011] Furthermore, abutment members are provided at certain positions of the slider, which abut against the slide groove, thereby fixing the slider at any position of the sliding stroke.

[0012] Furthermore, the slider includes a slider body and a handle connected to the slider body. The slider body has an abutment, and the handle is inserted into the storage body, so that the user can adjust the position of the slider body by the handle to change the center of gravity of the storage body.

[0013] It also includes a locking device, which is fixed in the middle of the storage cavity and has several slots arranged along the axial direction of the storage body.

[0014] Furthermore, the card includes a first card plate and a second card plate spaced apart along the axial direction of the storage body. A portion of the first card plate and the second card plate are connected by a connecting plate, and the first card plate and the second card plate are provided with mutually compatible card slots.

[0015] A cabinet includes shelves spaced apart along its height. The shelf has a notch, and a storage component as described above is provided in the notch. The two sides of the storage component are rotatably connected to the shelf, and the counterweight faces the user, so that the storage component rotates towards the user, thereby making the opening face the user.

[0016] Furthermore, the shelf is provided with connecting positions on both sides of the notch, and the connecting positions are rotatably connected to both sides of the storage body, so that the storage body can rotate relative to the shelf.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. This utility model proposes a storage component, including a storage body with a storage cavity. A counterweight is located within the storage cavity, causing the storage body to rotate under the action of the counterweight. This causes the opening of the storage cavity to face the side with the greater weight, i.e., towards the user. Compared to existing technologies that directly place storage components on shelves, the storage component proposed in this utility model can automatically rotate under the action of the counterweight, facing the opening of the storage cavity towards the user. This reduces the difficulty for users to retrieve items due to height limitations, improving convenience and safety.

[0019] 2. The present invention proposes a storage component in which the thickness of the bottom wall of the storage cavity on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body is greater than the thickness on the other side of the rotation axis of the storage body. The side of the bottom wall of the storage cavity with greater thickness constitutes a counterweight to realize the automatic rotation of the storage body.

[0020] 3. The present invention proposes a storage component in which the counterweight is a slider movably connected to the storage body. By moving the slider, the center of gravity of the body is changed, thereby changing the angle of rotation of the storage body relative to the shelf under the action of the counterweight, so that the orientation angle of the opening of the storage body can be changed according to the installation height.

[0021] 4. The storage component proposed in this utility model also includes a card, which is fixed in the middle of the storage cavity and has several card slots. Items to be stored can be placed in the card slots, making it convenient to classify and place toiletries, thereby improving storage efficiency and ease of use.

[0022] 5. The present invention proposes a storage component, the locking component including a first locking plate and a second locking plate spaced apart along the axial direction of the storage body, and the first locking plate and the second locking plate are provided with mutually compatible locking grooves to increase the stability of the stored items and effectively prevent the items from tipping over or being misaligned during the process of taking them out and putting them in.

[0023] 6. This utility model proposes a cabinet including shelves with notches. Storage components, as described above, are housed within these notches. The storage components are rotatably connected to the shelves on both sides, with the counterweight facing the user. This allows the storage components to rotate towards the user, making the opening face the user for easy access to items. This design is particularly suitable for users of different heights, effectively improving the intelligence and user-friendliness of bathroom cabinets. Furthermore, the rotatable connection structure between the storage components and the shelves is simple and stable, easy to install and maintain, and highly adaptable, allowing for widespread application in various cabinet environments.

Detailed Implementation

[0058] Example 1

[0059] The following is combined Figures 1-8 This utility model will be described in detail.

[0060] A storage component 10 includes a storage body 20, which has a storage cavity 201 with an opening. The storage body 20 is rotatably connected to a shelf 602 of a cabinet 60. The rotation axis of the storage body 20 is arranged radially thereon. A counterweight 203 is provided in the storage cavity 201, such that the weight on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20 is greater than the weight on the other side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20. That is, the weight of the storage body 20 on the side facing the user is greater than the weight on the side away from the user. As a result, the storage body 20 rotates relative to the shelf 602 around its rotation axis under the action of the counterweight 203, so that the opening rotates toward the side with the greater weight.

[0061] Compared to existing technologies that place the storage component 10 directly on the shelf 602, the storage component 10 proposed in this embodiment is rotatably connected to the shelf 602, so that the storage body 20 automatically adjusts its posture under the action of counterweight, and the opening always faces the side of the storage component 10 with greater weight, that is, the side facing the user, which makes it easier for the user to pick up and put down items, improves the convenience of use and space utilization, reduces the difficulty for users to pick up items due to height restrictions, and improves the convenience and safety of use.

[0062] In this embodiment, the counterweight 203 is located on one side of the rotation axis of the housing body 20, such that the opening faces the side where the counterweight 203 is located. Specifically, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, the thickness of the bottom wall of the storage cavity 201 on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20 is greater than the thickness on the other side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20. This results in the weight on one side of the bottom wall of the storage cavity 201 being greater than the weight on the other side. The side of the bottom wall of the storage cavity 201 with greater thickness forms a counterweight 203, causing the center of gravity 70 of the storage body 20 to be located outside the central axis of the storage body 20, thereby enabling the storage body 20 to automatically rotate towards the side where the counterweight 203 is located. Furthermore, the thickness on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20 extends from the end away from the rotation axis towards the rotation axis and gradually thins until it is the same as the thickness on the other side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20.

[0063] The storage component 10 also includes a locking component 30, which is fixed to the middle of the storage cavity 201. The locking component 30 has several slots 301 arranged along the axial direction of the storage body 20. Items to be stored can be placed in the slots 301, facilitating the categorization and placement of toiletries, improving storage efficiency and ease of access. The locking component 30 includes a first locking plate 302 and a second locking plate 303 spaced apart along the axial direction of the storage body 20. A portion of the first locking plate 302 and the second locking plate 303 is connected by a connecting plate 304. The first locking plate 302 and the second locking plate 303 are provided with mutually compatible slots 301. Items are simultaneously inserted into the slots 301 of the first locking plate 302 and the second locking plate 303, achieving stable fixation and effectively preventing items from tipping over or shifting during retrieval.

[0064] The inner wall of the storage cavity 201 is provided with a first inclined surface 401, so that when the clip 30 is installed in the storage cavity 201, the outer wall of the clip 30 abuts against the first inclined surface 401, forming a stable inclined fit between the clip 30 and the storage cavity 201, allowing the clip 30 to be fixed in the middle of the storage cavity 201. Furthermore, the radial dimension of the first clip 302 is slightly larger than that of the second clip 303, and the outer wall of the connector is provided with a second inclined surface 402 that matches the first inclined surface 401, so that when the connector is embedded in the storage cavity 201, the first inclined surface 401 and the second inclined surface 402 fit tightly together, fixing the clip 30 in the middle of the storage cavity 201. This further enhances the stability of the clip 30 installation.

[0065] Example 2

[0066] The following is combined Figures 9-14 This utility model will be described in detail.

[0067] In Embodiment 1, the configuration unit is fixed, so the rotation angle of the storage body 20 is a fixed angle. In actual use, the rotation angle of the storage body 20 needs to be adjusted appropriately according to its installation height. For example, the higher the installation height of the storage body 20, the greater the rotation angle of the storage body 20 should be, so as to ensure that the opening end can fully face the user and improve the convenience of taking and putting away the storage body.

[0068] Based on this, this embodiment proposes another movable counterweight 203, and the other parts of Embodiment 1 are still applicable to this embodiment. Specifically, the counterweight 203 is a slider, which is movably connected to the storage body 20. Figure 12 This shows the position of the center of gravity 70 of the storage body 20 when the slider is in the first position. Figure 13The image shows the position of the center of gravity 70 of the storage body 20 when the slider is in the second position. It can be seen that by moving the slider to change the position of the center of gravity 70 of the storage body 20, the rotation angle of the storage body 20 relative to the shelf 602 under the action of the counterweight 203 can be changed, allowing the orientation angle of the opening of the storage body 20 to be changed according to the installation height.

[0069] like Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the storage cavity 201 has a groove 204 on its inner wall located on one side of the rotation axis of the storage body 20. The slider is slidably connected to the groove 204, and can stop at any position during its sliding along the groove 204. A stop member 501 is provided at a portion of the slider, abutting against the groove 204, thereby fixing the slider at any position within its sliding stroke. The stop member 501 is made of elastic materials such as silicone or rubber, generating frictional resistance through elastic deformation, effectively preventing the slider from sliding under gravity. Furthermore, as... Figure 14 As shown, the slider includes a slider body 502 and a handle 503 connected to the slider body 502. The slider body 502 is provided with an abutment 501. The handle 503 is inserted into the storage body 20, so that the user can adjust the position of the slider body 502 by means of the handle 503 to change the center of gravity 70 of the storage body 20.

[0070] Example 3

[0071] The following is combined Figures 15-23 This utility model will be described in detail.

[0072] This embodiment describes a cabinet 60, within which a storage device as described in Embodiment 1 and / or Embodiment 2 is installed. Specifically, the cabinet 60 includes a cabinet body 601, with a storage space 605 within the cabinet body 601. The storage space 605 contains several shelves 602 spaced apart along its height, and the aforementioned storage device is mounted on each shelf 602. It also includes a cabinet door 604 hinged to the cabinet body 601, allowing the storage space 605 to be opened and closed by rotating the cabinet door 604. Furthermore, each shelf 602 has a notch 6021, within which a storage component 10 as described above is located. The two sides of the storage body 20 are rotatably connected to the shelf 602, and the counterweight 203 faces the user, causing the storage component 10 to rotate towards the user, thus opening towards the user.

[0073] The shelf 602 has connecting positions on both sides of the notch 6021. These connecting positions are rotatably connected to both sides of the storage body 20, allowing the storage body 20 to rotate relative to the shelf 602. Specifically, the storage body 20 has rotating shafts 202 on both sides, and the connecting positions are grooves 6022. The rotating shafts 202 are embedded in the grooves 6022 and can rotate relative to them, thereby achieving the flipping movement of the storage body 20. Figure 16 As shown. In other embodiments, the storage body 20 may have pin holes on both sides, and the shelf 602 may have pins on both sides of the notch 6021. The pins form a connection position, and the pins are inserted into the pin holes to realize the flipping movement of the storage body 20.

[0074] Example 4

[0075] The following is combined Figures 24-32 This utility model will be described in detail.

[0076] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 3 is that an additional connection point is provided. Specifically, the shelf 602 is fixed with sleeves 603 on both sides of the notch 6021. The sleeves 603 are provided with insertion holes 6031, and the sleeves 603 constitute the connection point. The rotating shaft 202 is inserted into the insertion hole 6031 and can rotate relative to it, thereby achieving stable flipping of the storage body 20, as shown below. Figure 25 As shown. In other embodiments, the fixing sleeve 603 is provided with a pin, and the two sides of the storage body 20 are provided with pin holes. The pin is inserted into the pin holes, thereby realizing the flipping movement of the storage body 20.
