Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of kitchen equipment technology, and in particular to a mother-daughter combination cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Kitchen cabinets are the core functional carrier of modern kitchens. With their flexible matching and clear functional zoning, they are widely used in family kitchens, commercial catering establishments, etc., to meet the needs of classified storage of ingredients, kitchen utensils and tableware, provide various operating areas, and adapt to different house types, cooking habits and style requirements.

[0003] Existing kitchen cabinets are usually modular in structure and arranged horizontally, with each functional area scattered, resulting in wasted space. For example, after washing dishes, they need to be placed on the countertop, which causes clutter. Therefore, they need to be placed in a sterilizing cabinet, but the horizontal arrangement of the sterilizing cabinet wastes kitchen space. At the same time, the high-frequency functional areas in the kitchen are scattered, requiring multiple moves across areas during operation, reducing operational efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to achieve precise integration of high-frequency and essential functions of kitchen cabinets and improve space utilization, this application provides a mother-daughter combination cabinet.

[0005] This application provides a mother-daughter combination cabinet. The technical solution adopted is as follows: A combination cabinet includes a cabinet body, which is divided into a kitchenware sterilization chamber, a storage chamber, and a freezer chamber. The storage chamber is located above the freezer chamber, and the kitchenware sterilization chamber is located above the storage chamber. The kitchenware sterilization chamber is equipped with a sterilization device. The storage chamber is equipped with a first storage component, and the freezer chamber is equipped with a second storage component.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the modular cabinet integrates kitchenware disinfection, storage, and freezing functions into one unit. Tableware can be taken out from the upper disinfection chamber, and ingredients or other items can be retrieved from the storage or freezer compartments and placed on top of the tableware, allowing for the complete retrieval of all necessary items or seasonings at once. This makes kitchen operations more convenient, enabling multiple operations to be completed in one location, avoiding the need to move across multiple areas during operation. Simultaneously, the disinfection, storage, and freezing functional areas are vertically distributed, avoiding space waste caused by horizontal layouts and significantly improving space utilization. The first and second storage components separate different ingredients, items, and seasonings, preventing cross-contamination of flavors and ensuring that different ingredients and seasonings are not easily confused during use, improving ease of use and enhancing the practicality of the modular cabinet. Furthermore, the middle storage compartment acts as an insulating buffer layer, separating the upper disinfection chamber from the lower freezer compartment, preventing condensation from the freezer from interfering with the disinfection chamber and preventing heat generated by the disinfection cabinet from being transferred to the lower freezer compartment, thus avoiding affecting its cooling effect.

[0007] Optionally, the sterilization device includes an ultraviolet germicidal lamp.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the sterilization characteristics of ultraviolet light can meet the disinfection needs of kitchen tableware. Ultraviolet sterilization leaves no chemical residue. At the same time, ultraviolet sterilization lamps are easy to integrate, have low energy consumption, and are easy to maintain and replace.

[0009] Optionally, the kitchenware disinfection chamber is equipped with a filter rack, a first partition plate is detachably connected to the filter rack, and a water guide plate is provided below the filter rack.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the position of the first partition plate is adjusted to support various sizes of tableware, ensuring that different tableware can be placed stably on the filter rack. After the tableware has been washed, it is placed on the filter rack, and the water remaining on the tableware drips through the filter rack onto the water guide plate for collection. This prevents the water on the tableware from dripping directly onto the bottom of the kitchenware sterilizer, which would cause dirt to accumulate at the bottom of the sterilizer over a long period of time. At the same time, it prevents water from flowing along the combination cabinet to the storage compartment, avoiding mutual interference between the various functional areas and ensuring the reliability of the combination cabinet.

[0011] Optionally, a water collection tank can be detachably connected to one of the outer corners of the water guide plate, and the water guide plate is inclined toward the water collection tank.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the water guide plate is tilted towards the water collection tank, ensuring that the water dripping onto the water guide plate flows smoothly into the water collection tank, avoiding the growth of bacteria caused by long-term retention on the water guide plate. The water collection tank can be cleaned in a timely manner through a detachable method, preventing water from escaping from the water collection tank, and ensuring the long-term effective use of the water guide plate and the water collection tank.

[0013] Optionally, the first storage component includes a second partition, and a plurality of fixing protrusions are fixedly provided inside the storage chamber for fixing the second partition; The storage room has several ventilation openings on its side walls, and an exhaust fan is installed on the rear side wall of the storage room.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple fixed protrusions in the storage chamber provide multiple support points for the second partition, which helps the second partition to be adjusted appropriately according to the size of the stored items. When the stored items or condiments are large, the second partition can be removed directly to ensure that the items are stored smoothly. When the stored items or condiments are small, the second partition can be inserted into an appropriate position to make full use of the internal space of the storage chamber, place more items, improve space utilization, and prevent the position of the second partition from restricting the storage of items. The ventilation vents and exhaust fans work together to improve ventilation efficiency, ensure that the items are dry, and reduce the growth of bacteria.

[0015] Optionally, a display stand is provided in front of the storage room.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after taking out tableware from the upper kitchenware disinfection cabinet, it can be temporarily placed on the display table before taking out other items. Alternatively, other items can be temporarily placed on the display table before taking out tableware, ensuring convenience of use, avoiding the need to move each item to another location, reducing multiple moves across areas, and improving operational efficiency.

[0017] Optionally, the second storage component includes a drawer that slides into the freezer compartment. A third divider is detachably connected inside the drawer to divide it as needed. The freezer compartment is connected to a compressor located above the kitchenware sterilization chamber.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the drawer divides the freezer compartment into multiple independent spaces, avoiding the stacking of multiple items that need to be frozen together. The third divider inside the drawer can be adjusted according to the size of the food, ensuring that different foods are located in different dividers, effectively preventing multiple different foods from mixing together, ensuring that food is stored in an orderly and neat manner inside the drawer, increasing the speed of food retrieval when used again, avoiding repeated searching, and improving operational efficiency; the use of a compressor for refrigeration results in a small size, light weight, high efficiency, stable operation, and extremely low refrigerant pollution.

[0019] Optionally, a sliding plate is provided above the drawer. When the drawer is inside the freezer compartment, the sliding plate covers the drawer. When the drawer is pulled out of the freezer compartment, the sliding plate can slide into the freezer compartment.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the drawer is inside the freezer compartment, the sliding plate covers the drawer. The sliding plate and the third divider work together to form a separate space in the area separated by the third divider, which prevents the odors of various foods in the freezer compartment from mixing and helps with food storage. When the drawer is pulled out of the freezer compartment, the sliding plate can be pushed back into the freezer compartment to avoid obstructing the access to food and improve the practicality of the third divider and the sliding plate.

[0021] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. This modular cabinet integrates kitchenware sterilization, storage, and freezing functions into one unit. Tableware can be retrieved from the upper sterilization chamber, and ingredients or other items can be taken from the storage or freezer compartments and placed on top of the tableware. This allows for the complete retrieval of all necessary items or seasonings at once, making kitchen operations more convenient. Multiple operations can be completed in one location, avoiding the need to move across multiple areas during operation. Furthermore, the sterilization, storage, and freezing areas are vertically distributed, avoiding horizontal layouts that would waste space and significantly improving space utilization. The first and second storage components separate different ingredients, items, and seasonings, preventing cross-contamination of flavors and ensuring that different ingredients and seasonings are not easily confused, improving ease of use and enhancing the practicality of the modular cabinet. The middle storage compartment acts as an insulated buffer layer, separating the upper sterilization chamber from the lower freezer chamber. This prevents condensation from the freezer from interfering with the sterilization process and avoids heat transfer from the sterilization cabinet to the lower freezer, thus preventing any impact on its cooling performance.

[0022] 2. Adjust the position of the first partition plate to support various sizes of tableware, ensuring that all tableware can be placed stably on the filter rack. After the tableware is washed, it is placed on the filter rack, and the residual water on the tableware drips through the filter rack onto the water guide plate for collection. This prevents water from dripping directly onto the bottom of the kitchenware sterilizer, which can lead to the accumulation of dirt at the bottom of the sterilizer over time. It also prevents water from flowing along the cabinet to the storage compartment, avoiding interference between different functional areas and ensuring the reliability of the cabinet. The water guide plate is tilted towards the water collection tank to ensure that the water dripping onto the water guide plate flows smoothly into the water collection tank, preventing bacteria growth caused by water remaining on the water guide plate for a long time. The water collection tank is removable for timely cleaning, preventing water from accumulating and overflowing, and ensuring the long-term effective use of the water guide plate and the water collection tank.

[0023] 3. The sterilization properties of ultraviolet light meet the disinfection needs of kitchen tableware, leaving no chemical residue. The ultraviolet sterilization lamp is easy to integrate, has low energy consumption, and is simple to maintain and replace. Multiple fixed protrusions in the storage chamber provide multiple support points for the second partition, allowing it to be adjusted according to the size of the stored items. For larger items or condiments, the second partition can be removed to ensure smooth storage; for smaller items or condiments, it can be inserted to fully utilize the internal space, maximizing storage capacity and preventing the partition's position from restricting storage. Ventilation vents and exhaust fans work together to improve ventilation efficiency, ensuring items remain dry and reducing bacterial growth.

[0024] 4. After taking the tableware out of the upper kitchenware sterilizer, you can temporarily place it on the shelf before taking out other items, or you can temporarily place the other items on the shelf before taking out the tableware. This ensures convenience and avoids having to move each item to another location to put it down, reducing multiple moves across areas and improving operational efficiency.

[0025] 5. The drawers divide the freezer into multiple independent spaces, preventing various frozen items from being stacked together. The third divider inside the drawer can be adjusted according to the size of the food, ensuring that different foods are placed on different dividers, effectively preventing mixing of different foods and ensuring that food is stored neatly and orderly inside the drawer. This increases the speed of food retrieval when needed, avoiding repeated searching and improving operational efficiency. The drawer utilizes a compressor for refrigeration; the compressor is small, lightweight, highly efficient, runs smoothly, and has extremely low refrigerant pollution. When the drawer is inside the freezer, the sliding cover covers the drawer. The sliding cover and the third divider work together to create separate spaces in the areas divided by the third divider, preventing cross-contamination of odors between different foods in the freezer and aiding in food storage. When the drawer is pulled out of the freezer, the sliding cover can be pushed back in, avoiding obstruction of food access and enhancing the practicality of the third divider and the sliding cover.
