Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen furniture, and in particular to a telescopic pull-out cabinet basket. Background Technology

[0002] A pull-out basket is a storage tool installed inside a cabinet. It is usually made of materials such as metal or plastic and is connected to the cabinet via a sliding rail system. It can be easily pulled out and pushed in like a drawer, making it convenient for people to access items. Pull-out baskets can make full use of the internal space of the cabinet, classifying and storing kitchen utensils such as pots, pans, tableware, and condiments, making the inside of the cabinet more tidy and organized, improving space utilization and ease of use.

[0003] The existing patent "A Cabinet Pull-Out Basket (Publication No.: CN222656580U)" discloses "a cabinet pull-out basket, including a left side panel, a rear side panel, a right side panel, a bottom panel, and a front edge strip. The left side panel, rear side panel, right side panel, and bottom panel are assembled into a drawer structure, and the front edge strip is installed on the front opening edge of the drawer. The left side panel, rear side panel, right side panel, and front edge strip are all aluminum profile structures with grooves protruding from the inside. The bottom panel is snapped onto the left side panel, rear side panel, right side panel, and front edge strip through the grooves. The left side panel and rear side panel, as well as the rear side panel and right side panel, are connected end-to-end by a first connector, and the left side panel and front edge strip, as well as the front edge strip and right side panel, are connected end-to-end by a second connector. Both the first and second connectors are provided with plug-in blocks. The drawer structure is formed by snapping together a stainless steel bottom panel with an aluminum alloy profile side panel and connecting and fixing it with plastic first and second connectors, which is simple, beautiful, sturdy, and durable."

[0004] In the aforementioned patent, the width of the pull-out basket is fixed. However, the actual cabinets used may vary in size, and a pull-out basket with a fixed width may not be able to fit well with cabinets of various sizes. Often, it is necessary to customize the pull-out basket according to the size of the cabinet, which may be a cumbersome process and may also bring additional costs. In addition, the basic structure of the pull-out basket is a semi-enclosed frame structure composed of a base plate and side plates for storing kitchen utensils. However, some water droplets may remain on the kitchen utensils. If the water droplets accumulate in the pull-out basket and are not cleaned for a long time, they may cause bacteria to grow, which may affect the hygiene of the entire pull-out basket and kitchen utensils.

[0005] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a telescopic pull-out cabinet basket to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a telescopic pull-out cabinet basket that allows for width adjustment and effectively prevents water accumulation.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A telescopic pull-out cabinet basket includes a cabinet body, a support mechanism, two side panels, two telescopic mechanisms, and a water absorption mechanism. The inner surfaces of the cabinet body near both sides are fixedly provided with slide rails, and the two side panels are fixedly provided with sliders near the rear end on opposite sides.

[0009] The support mechanism includes an upper support plate and a lower support plate. The lower support plate is slidably disposed at the lower end of the upper support plate. Drainage holes are provided on the surfaces of both the upper and lower support plates.

[0010] Both of the telescopic mechanisms include an outer plate, and inner plates are slidably fitted on both sides of the two outer plates. Racks are fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of each pair of inner plates near the opposite side. Gears are rotatably fitted inside the two outer plates near the middle position. An operating disc is fixedly connected to the front end of each of the two gears. The water absorption mechanism includes two water absorption layers and two support nets.

[0011] Furthermore, both the support mechanism and the water absorption mechanism are located between the two side plates near the lower end, with the support mechanism located at the upper end of the water absorption mechanism.

[0012] Furthermore, the two telescopic mechanisms are located between the two side plates near the front and rear ends, and the two sliders are slidably disposed in the two slide rails.

[0013] Furthermore, a plurality of support rods are fixedly provided at the lower end of the upper support plate, and the plurality of support rods are located at the lower end of the lower support plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the upper and lower ends of the two gears are respectively engaged with and connected to the four racks, and the opposite ends of the four inner plates are respectively fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the opposite sides of the two side plates.

[0015] Furthermore, the two support nets are respectively fixedly sleeved inside the two absorbent layers, and the opposite ends of the two support nets are respectively sleeved onto the opposite side of the two side plates.

[0016] Furthermore, the two absorbent layers are stacked on top of each other and slidably disposed between the two absorbent layers, with the positions of the two absorbent layers corresponding to the upper support plate and the lower support plate, respectively.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This utility model proposes a telescopic pull-out cabinet basket, which is equipped with a support mechanism and a telescopic mechanism. During use, the telescopic mechanism drives the gear to rotate by rotating the operating disc, and then drives the two inner plates to slide through the meshing action, thereby realizing the width adjustment of the telescopic mechanism. The relative position of the two side plates also changes accordingly, thereby driving the upper support plate and the lower support plate to stretch, thus realizing the width adjustment of the entire pull-out basket. It can adapt to cabinets of various sizes. The quick adjustment can effectively avoid the complexity of customization and save customization costs.

[0019] 2. This utility model proposes a telescopic pull-out cabinet basket, which is equipped with a support mechanism and a water absorption mechanism. During use, both ends of the support mechanism and the water absorption mechanism are fixedly connected to two side panels. The relative position change of the two side panels can drive the extension and retraction of the support mechanism and the water absorption mechanism, so that the two water absorption layers correspond to the upper and lower support plates respectively. Water droplets on the surface of the kitchenware can pass through the drainage holes and be absorbed by the water absorption layers. This can effectively prevent water accumulation, ensure the dryness of the basket, reduce bacterial growth, and thus ensure the hygiene of the entire basket and kitchenware.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 The present invention provides an embodiment of a telescopic pull-out cabinet basket, comprising a cabinet body 1, a support mechanism 3, two side panels 4, two telescopic mechanisms 6 and a water absorption mechanism 7. The inner surfaces of the cabinet body 1 near both sides are fixedly provided with slide rails 2, and the two side panels 4 are fixedly provided with sliders 5 near the rear end on opposite sides.

[0028] The support mechanism 3 and the water absorption mechanism 7 are both located between the two side plates 4 near the lower end. The support mechanism 3 is located at the upper end of the water absorption mechanism 7. The two telescopic mechanisms 6 are located between the two side plates 4 near the front and rear ends respectively. The two sliders 5 are slidably arranged in the two slide rails 2 respectively.

[0029] Specifically, the main body 1 of the cabinet is where the pull-out basket is used. The slide rail 2 supports the pull-out basket, allowing it to be placed in the cabinet and ensuring its forward and backward movement. The support mechanism 3, two side panels 4, two telescopic mechanisms 6, and water absorption mechanism 7 together form the pull-out basket. The support mechanism 3 supports the kitchen utensils, while the two side panels 4 and two telescopic mechanisms 6 form the side structure of the pull-out basket, restricting the kitchen utensils from all sides to prevent them from falling out of the basket. The water absorption mechanism 7 is located below the support mechanism 3 and can absorb dripping water in time. At the same time, the support mechanism 3 and the two telescopic mechanisms 6 can extend and retract to make the width of the pull-out basket adapt to the size of the main body 1 of the cabinet.

[0030] Reference Figure 2 The support mechanism 3 includes an upper support plate 301 and a lower support plate 302. The lower support plate 302 is slidably disposed at the lower end of the upper support plate 301. Drainage holes 304 are provided on the surfaces of both the upper support plate 301 and the lower support plate 302.

[0031] Multiple support rods 303 are fixedly installed at the lower end of the upper support plate 301, and the multiple support rods 303 are located at the lower end of the lower support plate 302;

[0032] Specifically, both the upper support plate 301 and the lower support plate 302 are made of stainless steel and provide support for the kitchenware. Both of them have fine drainage holes 304 on their surfaces, which can effectively prevent water accumulation and ensure that excess water is smoothly separated from the kitchenware and enters the water absorption mechanism 7. The lower support plate 302 is located between the upper support plate 301 and the support rod 303. The support rod 303 can provide stable support for the lower support plate 302 and ensure the stable expansion and contraction of the upper support plate 301 and the lower support plate 302.

[0033] Reference Figure 3 Both telescopic mechanisms 6 include an outer plate 601. Inner plates 602 are slidably sleeved on both sides of the two outer plates 601. Racks 603 are fixedly installed at the upper and lower ends of each pair of inner plates 602 near the opposite side. Gears 604 are rotatably sleeved inside the two outer plates 601 near the middle position. An operating disc 605 is fixedly connected to the front end of each gear 604.

[0034] The upper and lower ends of the two gears 604 are respectively meshed with and connected to the four racks 603, and the opposite ends of the four inner plates 602 are respectively fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the opposite side of the two side plates 4.

[0035] Specifically, the outer plate 601 has a cavity in the middle, which communicates with the outside through both sides of the outer plate 601. The inner plate 602 consists of a wider plate structure and a narrower strip structure. The strip structure is located inside the outer plate 601, and the end of the plate structure away from the strip structure is located outside the outer plate 601. The rack 603 is set on the strip structure, and the gear 604 meshes with the rack 603 at the upper and lower ends. When the gear 604 rotates, it drives the two racks 603 to move in opposite directions through meshing. The operating panel 605 is the mechanism for the user to control the rotation of the gear 604.

[0036] It should be noted that the shaft of the operating disc 605 is fixedly connected to the shaft of the gear 604. This shaft is rotatably sleeved in the middle of the outer plate 601. The friction between the two is relatively large, and the rotational resistance is also relatively large. Therefore, the force required to rotate the operating disc 605 is also relatively large. This can effectively prevent the telescopic mechanism 6 from extending or retracting arbitrarily due to accidental touch. At the same time, the two ends of the two telescopic mechanisms 6 are fixedly connected to the two side plates 4 respectively. The slider 5 on one side of the side plate 4 is slidably sleeved in the slide rail 2, which can limit the horizontal movement of the side plate 4 and further ensure the stability of the telescopic mechanism 6 after adjustment. In addition, since the two ends of the two telescopic mechanisms 6 are connected to the two side plates 4, the extension and retraction of the two telescopic mechanisms 6 must be consistent. Therefore, the two operating discs 605 need to rotate synchronously to realize the extension and retraction adjustment of the telescopic mechanism 6.

[0037] Reference Figure 4The water absorption mechanism 7 includes two water absorption layers 701 and two support nets 702. The two support nets 702 are fixedly sleeved inside the two water absorption layers 701 respectively. The opposite ends of the two support nets 702 are respectively sleeved on the opposite sides of the two side plates 4. The two water absorption layers 701 are superimposed on each other and slidably arranged between the two water absorption layers 701. The two water absorption layers 701 correspond to the positions of the upper support plate 301 and the lower support plate 302 respectively.

[0038] Specifically, the support net 702 is made of stainless steel with high hardness and serves as the support skeleton for the water absorption mechanism 7. One end of the support net 702 is inserted into the side plate 4 to fix the water absorption mechanism 7. The water absorption layer 701 is wrapped around the outer surface of the support net 702. The water absorption layer 701 is made of wood pulp sponge and has extremely strong water absorption. It can absorb dripping water droplets in time. At the same time, the water absorption layer 701 can be naturally dried after absorbing water to avoid bacterial growth. The two water absorption layers 701 are superimposed on each other but are not connected. The two water absorption layers 701 move synchronously with the two side plates 4 respectively.

[0039] It should be noted that although the absorbent layer 701 has a porous structure that is prone to bacterial growth, the amount of water absorbed by the absorbent mechanism 7 is usually small, and the porous structure can accelerate the evaporation of moisture, ensuring that the absorbent mechanism 7 is in a dry state, effectively preventing bacterial growth and ensuring the hygiene of the pull-out basket. In addition, the support net 702 is detachable. After the absorbent layer 701 has been used for a period of time, it may age. The support net 702 can be pulled out from the side plate 4 and replaced with a new absorbent mechanism 7 to ensure its water absorption function.

[0040] Working principle: When adjusting the width of the pull-out basket, first place the pull-out basket into the cabinet body 1, so that the lower ends of the two side panels 4 are located on the inner bottom surface of the cabinet body 1. At the same time, rotate the two operating discs 605. The operating discs 605 drive the gears 604 to rotate. Under the meshing action, the two sets of racks 603 move to both sides respectively, so that the inner panels 602 on both sides slide out from the outer panels 601, thereby stretching the telescopic mechanism 6.

[0041] The extension of the telescopic mechanism 6 can push the two side plates 4 to move to both sides until the two sliders 5 are in contact with the inner side wall of the cabinet body 1. At the same time, the movement of the side plates 4 can drive the upper support plate 301, the lower support plate 302 and the two water absorption layers 701 to move to both sides in sync, so that the width of the support mechanism 3 and the water absorption mechanism 7 matches the telescopic mechanism 6. At this time, the width adjustment of the pull basket is completed. Pull the pull basket out of the cabinet body 1 and push it back into the cabinet body 1. At this time, the height of the slider 5 is higher than the slide rail 2. After the pull basket is pushed in a certain distance, the slider 5 can be placed in the slide rail 2 and the pull basket can be pushed inward along the slide rail 2.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
