Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of home furnishing, and in particular to a flying saucer hinge base connection structure and a corner cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, the outer rotating arm and fixing plate of a UFO-shaped pull-out basket are mostly connected and fixed using hinge seats and hooks. However, most corner cabinets currently use separate hinge seats and hooks, which are cumbersome to manufacture and assemble, and the connection stability between the hook and the fixing plate is poor, with limited anti-loosening design, posing certain safety hazards. To solve the problem of reliable connection between the hook and the fixing plate, a common practice is to add a decorative cover for locking and limiting, thus preventing loosening. However, this method adds extra parts, leading to structural complexity, increased costs, and reduced product competitiveness.

[0003] Based on the above, the existing flying saucer hinge base connection structure needs further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0004] The first purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a flying saucer hinge seat connection structure that integrates the hinge seat and the hook into one piece, increasing the connection strength. At the same time, the positioning screws make the connection structure more stable with the corner cabinet. The structure is simple and the manufacturing cost is low.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a flying saucer hinge seat connection structure, including a hinge seat, a connector and a positioning screw, wherein the hinge seat and the connector are integrally formed, the connector includes a hook, the connector is connected to the corner cabinet through the hook and the positioning screw, and the hinge seat is hinged to the outer rotating arm of the pull-out basket bracket.

[0006] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model effectively enhances the overall connection strength and structural reliability by designing the hinge seat and hook as an integrally molded structure. Simultaneously, the use of positioning screws to secure the connection structure to the corner cabinet further improves installation stability and resistance to loosening. This not only results in a simple structure and convenient assembly but also helps reduce the number of parts and simplify the production process, thereby significantly reducing production costs and making it more suitable for large-scale manufacturing and application.

[0007] Preferably, the connector further includes a connecting plate, the hinge seat is disposed on one side of the connecting plate, the hook is disposed on the other side of the connecting plate, the connecting plate is provided with fixing holes, and when the connector is assembled with the corner cabinet, the positioning screw passes through the fixing holes; the connecting plate connects the hinge seat and the hook as a whole, thereby making the connection between the outer rotating arm of the corner cabinet and the corner cabinet more stable.

[0008] Preferably, the hooks are arranged opposite each other and at least one set is provided, and the hooks are configured to bend downwards; the oppositely arranged hooks enable the connecting plate to maintain balance when hooked and avoid tilting.

[0009] Preferably, the hinge seat includes a top wall, a side wall, and a bottom wall, which together form a semi-open connecting groove. The connecting groove is used to prevent the rotating arm of the corner cabinet from being exposed, so that the outer rotating arm can rotate into the corner cabinet at a greater angle, thereby allowing the pull-out basket to be screwed into the corner cabinet.

[0010] Preferably, one end of the connecting groove is a circular mounting part, and the mounting part is provided with a hinge hole for mounting the external rotating arm.

[0011] Preferably, the side wall semi-enclosed mounting part serves two purposes: firstly, it limits the outward rotation angle of the outer rotating arm to prevent excessive rotation angle; secondly, it protects the connecting end of the outer rotating arm to prevent it from moving outward after becoming loose, thus avoiding potential safety hazards.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting plate has a recessed cavity on the side away from the hinge seat, the fixing hole extends from the front side of the connecting plate to the recessed cavity, and the fixing hole is surrounded by reinforcing ribs extending to the side wall of the recessed cavity; this allows the connecting plate to save materials while maintaining the rigidity and stability of the fixing hole, making it less prone to deformation.

[0013] Another objective of this invention is to provide a corner cabinet, comprising a cabinet body, a pull-out basket, and a support assembly. The support assembly is disposed within the cabinet body and includes a column, a fixed plate, an inner rotating arm, and an outer rotating arm. The fixed plate is disposed on the side wall of the cabinet body. One end of the outer rotating arm is rotatably mounted on the fixed plate via the aforementioned connection structure. One end of the inner rotating arm is hinged to the column. Both the inner and outer rotating arms are hinged to the pull-out basket, allowing the basket to rotate in or out of the cabinet body. Compared with the prior art, the corner cabinet of this invention, due to the application of the above-mentioned solution, has higher installation stability and resistance to loosening, and its structure is simple and cost-effective.

[0014] Preferably, the end of the external rotating arm connected to the fixed plate is provided with a rotating shaft, which is set on the mounting part. When the pull-out basket is located inside the cabinet, at least a part of the external rotating arm is placed in the connecting groove.

[0015] Preferably, the fixing plate has a hook hole, the hook can be operably passed through and hooked onto the hook hole, and the positioning screw passes through the fixing hole and tightens the fixing plate; the positioning screw is used to tighten the connection with the fixing plate, so that there is no need to make a hole on the fixing plate, and the hook can be firmly locked onto the hook hole. At the same time, the friction generated by tightening can prevent the hook from moving upward and thus avoid falling off. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "horizontal", "inner", and "outer" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and does 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, it should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0023] Example 1: See Figures 1 to 2 This embodiment discloses a flying saucer hinge seat connection structure 1, including a hinge seat 2, a connector 3 and a positioning screw 4. The hinge seat 2 and the connector 3 are integrally connected. The connector 3 includes a hook 31. The connector 3 is connected to the corner cabinet 5 through the hook 31 and the positioning screw 4. The hinge seat 2 is hinged to the outer rotating arm of the corner cabinet 5.

[0024] Specifically, the positioning screw 4 is a grommet screw.

[0025] The connector 3 also includes a connecting plate 32. The hinge seat 2 is disposed on one side of the connecting plate 32, and the hook 31 is disposed on the other side of the connecting plate 32. The connecting plate 32 has a fixing hole 321. When the connector 3 is assembled with the corner cabinet 5, the positioning screw 4 passes through the fixing hole 321. In this solution, the connector 3 integrates the hinge seat 2 and the hook 31, enhancing its connection rigidity and structural reliability. Moreover, the structure is simple and requires no assembly.

[0026] To ensure that the hooks of the connecting structure 1 remain balanced on the corner cabinet 5, the hooks 31 are arranged opposite each other and at least one set is provided, and the hooks 31 are configured to be bent downwards.

[0027] To prevent the rotation of the corner cabinet 5's rotating arm from being obstructed, the hinge base 2 includes a top wall 21, a side wall 22, and a bottom wall 23. The top wall 21, side wall 22, and bottom wall 23 enclose each other to form a semi-open connecting groove 24, which is used to prevent the corner cabinet 5's rotating arm from being obstructed.

[0028] One end of the connecting groove 24 is provided as a circular mounting part 25, and the mounting part 25 is provided with a hinge hole 251 for mounting the outer rotating arm 534. Specifically, there are two hinge holes 251, respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the mounting part 25. The shape of the mounting part 25 in this design matches the rotation of the rotating shaft 535 and the rotational movement of the rotating arm. The outer rotating arm 534 is mounted from the upper and lower sides through the hinge holes 251, allowing the outer rotating arm 534 to rotate horizontally on the connecting groove 24.

[0029] The side wall 22 partially encloses the mounting portion 25. In this design, the side wall 22 partially encloses the mounting portion 25. On the one hand, this restricts the outward rotation angle of the outer rotating arm 534, preventing the outer rotating arm 534 from rotating outward at an excessive angle, which would cause the pull-out position of the basket 52 to be inconsistent with user habits and affect user experience. On the other hand, it protects the end of the outer rotating arm 534 that is mounted on the mounting portion 25, preventing it from falling off from one side if that end becomes loose, thus avoiding safety hazards.

[0030] The connecting plate 32 has a recess 323 on the side away from the hinge seat 2. The fixing hole 321 extends from the front side of the connecting plate 32 to the recess 323. Reinforcing ribs 322 extending to the sidewall of the recess 323 are provided around the fixing hole 321. The recess 323 in this design can save production materials, and at the same time, the reinforcing ribs 322 stabilize the fixing hole 321, maintain the rigidity of the connection between the fixing hole 321 and the connecting plate 32, and prevent deformation.

[0031] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model effectively enhances the overall connection strength and structural reliability by designing the hinge seat 2 and hook 31 as an integrally formed structure. At the same time, the use of positioning screws 4 to fasten the connecting structure 1 to the corner cabinet 5 further improves the installation stability and anti-loosening ability. Not only is the structure simple and easy to assemble, but it also helps to reduce the number of parts and simplify the production process, thereby significantly reducing production costs and making it more suitable for large-scale manufacturing and application.

[0032] Example 2: See Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment discloses a corner cabinet 5, including a cabinet body 51, a pull-out basket 52, and a support assembly 53. The support assembly 53 is disposed inside the cabinet body 51 and includes a column 531, a fixing plate 532, an inner rotating arm 533, and an outer rotating arm 534. The fixing plate 532 is disposed on the side wall of the cabinet body 51. One end of the outer rotating arm 534 is rotatably disposed on the fixing plate 532 through the connecting structure 1 of Embodiment 1. One end of the inner rotating arm 533 is hinged to the column 531. Both the inner rotating arm 533 and the outer rotating arm 534 are hinged to the pull-out basket 52, allowing the pull-out basket 52 to rotate in or out of the cabinet body 51. Compared with the prior art, the corner cabinet of this utility model has higher installation stability and anti-loosening ability due to the application of the above solution, and its structure is simple and the cost is low.

[0033] The outer rotating arm 534 is connected to the fixed plate 532 at one end, and a rotating shaft 535 is provided on the mounting part 25. When the pull-out basket 52 is located inside the cabinet 51, at least a portion of the outer rotating arm 534 is placed in the connecting groove 24. In this design, the connecting groove 24 increases the inward rotation angle of the outer rotating arm 534. When the pull-out basket 52 is inside the cabinet 51, a portion of the outer rotating arm 534 is placed in the connecting groove 24.

[0034] The fixing plate 532 has a hook hole 5321, through which the hook 31 can be operably passed and hooked onto the hook hole 5321. The positioning screw 4 passes through the fixing hole 321 and tightens the fixing plate 532. In this design, the positioning screw 4 allows the connecting structure 1 to be fixed to the fixing plate 532 without the need for a hole. The hook 31 can be locked onto the hook hole 5321, and the friction generated by tightening prevents the hook 31 from moving upward and thus avoids it from falling off.

[0035] Based on the disclosure and teachings of the above specification, those skilled in the art can make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to this utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model. Furthermore, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for convenience of explanation and do not constitute any limitation on this utility model.
