Description

Technical Field

[0001] The technical solution relates to the field of folding laundry basket technology, specifically referring to a folding dirty laundry basket. Background Technology

[0002] A folding laundry basket is a household item that makes it easy to store clothes. Its foldable design allows it to be quickly unfolded for use and folded away when not in use.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN214824950U discloses a folding laundry basket, which includes a left basket, a right basket, and a bottom plate. The junction of the front and rear sides of the left and right baskets is hinged by a hinge shaft. The front and rear sides of the left and right baskets are vertically provided with folding grooves that pass through the top and bottom surfaces. A connecting plate is provided on the inner side of the bottom surface of the left and right baskets, and the bottom plate is located at the connecting plate. When folding, the bottom plate is raised and the left and right baskets are folded inward along the folding grooves. When in use, the left and right baskets are unfolded, the bottom plate is flattened, and the entire laundry basket is in an unfolded state. In the aforementioned folding laundry basket, the bottom plate is hinged to the connecting plate on the inner side of the bottom surface of the left and right baskets. After the basket is filled with a certain amount of clothes, it will inevitably stretch and deform the left and right baskets, resulting in continuous lateral tensile and torsional stress at the hinge between the bottom plate and the two side plates. This causes fatigue, wear, or even breakage of the connecting parts, reducing the overall structural stability and service life of the basket, and resulting in poor load-bearing capacity. Utility Model Content

[0004] This technical solution aims to improve the problem of poor structural stability and insufficient load-bearing capacity caused by poor stress distribution at the hinge of the bottom plate in folding laundry baskets. It provides a folding laundry basket.

[0005] The purpose of this technical solution is achieved as follows: A folding laundry basket includes a basket frame and a matching frame base. The basket frame is installed on the frame base by a snap-fit ​​structure. The lower end of the basket frame has an abutment portion around the opening. The outer wall of the abutment portion has an abutment surface one. The frame base has an annular groove that matches the abutment portion. The annular groove has an abutment surface two corresponding to the groove wall. After the clothes basket frame and the frame base are engaged, the abutting part is embedded in the annular groove, and the abutting surface one and the abutting surface two abut against each other.

[0006] Through the above technical solution, when a folding laundry basket is in normal use, by embedding the bottom edge of the basket frame into the matching annular groove of the frame base, the inclined abutment surface one of the outer wall of the edge is tightly abutted against the inclined abutment surface two of the corresponding groove wall of the annular groove, forming a stable support structure, effectively dispersing and bearing the load from the clothes inside the basket frame, thereby improving the stress condition at the hinge of the bottom plate, enhancing structural stability, and improving the overall load-bearing capacity.

[0007] Preferably, the first abutment surface is a sloped surface that is inclined into the circumferential groove, and the second abutment surface is a sloped surface that matches the first abutment surface.

[0008] The above technical solution optimizes the direction of force bearing by using inclined surfaces to further improve the stability of use.

[0009] Preferably, the snap-fit ​​structure includes: A snap-fit ​​strip, disposed at the lower end of the basket frame, the snap-fit ​​strip including an extension section and a snap-fit ​​section protruding from the side of the extension section; and The snap-hole portion is provided corresponding to the snap-fit ​​strip; The extension section passes through the corresponding buckle hole, and the snap-fit ​​section abuts against the outer wall of the buckle hole, thereby preventing the snap-fit ​​strip from disengaging from the buckle hole.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the extension of the snap-fit ​​strip passes through the corresponding snap hole during assembly, so that the protruding snap-fit ​​section on its side firmly abuts against the outer wall of the snap hole, thereby forming an effective constraint and preventing the snap-fit ​​strip from detaching from the snap hole. This enables the quick installation and locking of the clothes basket frame and the frame base. The multi-point distributed snap-fit ​​structure evenly distributes the load, enhances the integrity and structural strength of the connection, and further improves the stability and reliability of the clothes basket under load.

[0011] Preferably, the frame base is provided with a plurality of protruding ribs corresponding to the buckle hole portion, and the snap-fit ​​section abuts against each of the corresponding protruding ribs.

[0012] Through the above technical solution, the snap-fit ​​section and the rib section form a larger area and more stable support, which enhances the local strength and load distribution capacity of the connection and improves the stability of the overall structure.

[0013] Preferably, the rib portion includes a first rib and a second rib respectively disposed on opposite sides of the corresponding buckle hole portion, and the snap-fit ​​section of the different snap-fit ​​strip can abut against the first rib or the second rib.

[0014] With the above technical solution, even when the clothes are spread out of the clothes basket frame, the inward-facing snap-fit ​​section may detach from the second rib, while the outward-facing snap-fit ​​section abuts against the first rib to prevent accidental detachment, thereby further improving the structural stability of the clothes basket under load.

[0015] Preferably, the clothes basket frame includes: First plate; A second plate, the dimensions of which match those of the first plate; and Two side connecting plates, the side portions of the two side connecting plates are respectively hinged to the opposite sides of the first plate, and the other side portions are respectively hinged to the corresponding sides of the second plate; The first plate, the second plate, and the two side connecting plates are assembled to form the whole of the clothes basket frame. Each of the side connecting plates includes a side plate one and a side plate two that are hinged to each other.

[0016] Through the above technical solution, the multiple hinges formed between the first plate, the second plate and the two side connecting plates allow the entire clothes basket frame to be smoothly folded or unfolded along each hinge axis. The folded clothes basket frame is easier to store, and the unfolded clothes basket frame can be quickly used after being snapped onto the frame base. It is convenient to operate and improves portability.

[0017] Preferably, the inner side of the side connecting plate is provided with a crease groove, the crease groove passes through the upper and lower end faces of the side connecting plate, the side connecting plate is divided into side plate one and side plate two along the crease groove, and side plate one and side plate two are folded inward along the crease groove.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, the crease groove guides the bending trajectory, and the side panel one and the side panel two are folded together through the crease groove, avoiding damage to the board material that may be caused by random bending and improving durability.

[0019] Preferably, the side plate one is provided with a plurality of hinge rods one on the side near the side plate two, and the side plate two is provided with a plurality of hinge rods two. The end of the hinge rod one has a hinge post protruding out, and the hinge rod two is provided with a hinge groove for fitting the hinge post.

[0020] By using the above technical solution, the hinge post is embedded in the corresponding hinge groove to form a rotatable connecting shaft. Side plate one and side plate two can rotate relative to each other around this shaft to achieve smooth folding and unfolding inward or outward.

[0021] Preferably, one or more hinge blocks are provided between the first side plate and the second side plate. The hinge blocks of the first side plate and the second side plate have clearance grooves. The hinge block has two hinge shafts. The two ends of the hinge shafts protrude with hinge pins. The opposite sidewalls of the clearance grooves are provided with hinge recesses for the hinge pins to fit into.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, side plate one and side plate two are fitted with the hinge pin on the hinge shaft through the hinge recess of the avoidance groove to form a double-sided synchronous rotation structure. When the two side plates are folded or unfolded, side plate one and side plate two rotate relative to each other around the hinge shaft connected to the hinge block.

[0023] Preferably, the clothes basket frame has a receiving cavity, a fixing frame is provided around the opening of the receiving cavity at the upper end of the clothes basket frame, and the clothes basket frame is provided with an upper frame cover that matches the opening of the receiving cavity; A support plate is installed inside the cavity, and the size of the support plate is adapted to the width of the cavity. Both the first plate and the second plate are provided with corresponding grooves for the support plate to fit into. The grooves are defined by two oppositely arranged plates. The cavity is also equipped with two shaping frames, which are located on opposite sides of the fixed frame. The inner sidewall of the fixed frame has a first abutment edge, and the corresponding sidewall of the support plate has a second abutment edge. The shaping frame is positioned against the first and second abutment edges to support the clothes basket frame.

[0024] Through the above technical solution, the support plate is stably installed by being embedded in the groove formed by the relative plates on the first plate and the second plate. The support plate forms effective support inside the clothes basket frame, restricting the inward collapse and deformation between the first plate and the second plate on both sides, and enhancing the overall structural rigidity.

[0025] A shaping frame is added, which is used to support the clothes basket frames on opposite sides of the fixed frame. The support plate and the shaping frame work together to strengthen the frame and further improve the overall structural rigidity and deformation resistance of the clothes basket frame.

[0026] The key and beneficial technical effects of this technical solution compared to existing technologies are: 1. This technical solution embeds the bottom edge of the clothes basket frame into the matching circumferential groove of the frame base, so that the inclined abutment surface one of the outer wall of the edge is in close contact with the inclined abutment surface two of the corresponding groove wall of the circumferential groove, forming a stable support structure, dispersing and bearing the load from the clothes inside the clothes basket frame, and improving the overall load-bearing capacity.

[0029] The specific implementation of this technical solution will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Example 1: See Figure 1 A folding laundry basket includes a basket frame 1 and a matching frame base 2. The frame base 2 is located at the bottom of the basket. In this example, casters are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the frame base 2 to assist in the movement of the folding laundry basket.

[0031] See Figures 2-6The lower opening of the clothes basket frame 1 is surrounded by an abutment part 4. The abutment part 4 has an abutment surface 61 along its outer side wall, which is an inclined surface that slopes inward away from the clothes basket frame 1. The upper part of the base is provided with an annular groove 5 that matches the abutment part 4. The outer side wall of the groove is an abutment surface 62. The inclined direction of the abutment surface 62 makes the annular groove 5 flare from the bottom to the opening. The abutment surface 62 matches the abutment surface 61. When the abutment part 4 is inserted into the annular groove 5, the abutment surface 61 and the abutment surface 62 face each other. The accumulation of clothes will stretch the clothes basket frame 1 and deform it. The abutment surface 61 will press against the abutment surface 62 outward, thereby forming a stable support structure through the interlocking of the inclined surfaces, effectively dispersing and bearing the load from the clothes in the clothes basket frame 1.

[0032] The specific fixing method between the basket frame 1 and the frame base 2 is through a snap-fit ​​structure 3 between them, which includes a number of snap-fit ​​strips 31 distributed on the edge portion 4 and a number of snap holes 32 corresponding to the snap-fit ​​strips 31. Each snap-fit ​​strip 31 includes an extension section 311 and a snap-fit ​​section 312. One end of the extension section 311 is integrally connected to the edge portion 4, and the snap-fit ​​section 312 protrudes from the side of the other end. The snap hole 32 passes through the inner wall of the annular groove 5 corresponding to the position of the snap-fit ​​strip 31. During assembly, the extension section 311 of the snap-fit ​​strip 31 passes through the corresponding snap hole 32. The deformation of the extension section 311 causes the snap-fit ​​section 312 to pass through the snap hole 32 until the snap-fit ​​section 312 is firmly abutted against the outer side wall below the snap hole 32, thereby forming an effective constraint and preventing the snap-fit ​​strip 31 from detaching from the snap hole 32.

[0033] The frame base 2 is provided with a number of protruding ribs 7 corresponding to the buckle hole portion. These ribs protrude from the lower end face of the frame base 2 away from the annular groove 5. The protruding ribs 7 include a first protruding rib 71 and a second protruding rib 72 respectively provided on opposite sides of the corresponding buckle hole portion 32. The number of snap-fit ​​strips 31 are divided into two types: one type has snap-fit ​​sections 312 on the extension section 311 with the protruding direction facing outward, and the other type has snap-fit ​​sections 312 on the extension section 311 with the protruding direction facing inward. These two types of snap-fit ​​strips 31 are arranged alternately. When the snap-fit ​​strip 31 is fitted into the buckle hole portion 32, the snap-fit ​​section 312 with the inward direction will abut against the first protruding rib 71, while the snap-fit ​​section 312 with the protruding direction facing outward abut against the second protruding rib 72.

[0034] See Figure 7 and Figure 8A receiving cavity 18 is formed between the clothes basket frame 1 and the base. The clothes basket frame 1 includes a first plate 11, a second plate 12 and two side connecting plates 13. The first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are matched in size and form the wide surfaces of the front and rear sides of the clothes basket frame 1, respectively. The two side plates are located between the first plate 11 and the second plate 12 and form the narrow surfaces of the left and right sides of the clothes basket frame 1, respectively. The side parts of the two side connecting plates 13 are respectively hinged to the opposite sides of the first plate 11, and the other side parts are respectively hinged to the corresponding sides of the second plate 12, so that the first plate 11, one of the side connecting plates 13, the second plate 12 and the other side connecting plate 13 are sequentially hinged together to form the three-dimensional rectangular (or approximately rectangular) main structure of the clothes basket frame 1.

[0035] Each side connecting plate 13 is provided with a fold groove 8, which is located on the inner wall of the corresponding side connecting plate 13 near the receiving cavity 18, and the groove runs through the upper and lower end faces of the side connecting plate 13. The side connecting plate 13 is divided into side plate one 131 and side plate two 132 along the fold groove 8. Side plate one 131 and side plate two 132 can be folded inward along the fold groove 8 as a fold line, so that side plate one 131 and side plate two 132 are folded inward and closed in the receiving cavity 18, or folded outward in the direction of the receiving cavity 18 (outward), so that the whole basket frame 1 is folded into a flat sheet shape.

[0036] A fixing frame 19 is provided at the upper end of the clothes basket frame 1 around the opening of the receiving cavity 18. It covers the upper end of the clothes basket frame 1. The frame base 2 cooperates with the fixing frame 19 to shape the upper and lower ends of the clothes basket frame 1. A support plate 21 is installed in the receiving cavity 18. Its size is adapted to the width of the receiving cavity 18. The first plate 11 and the second plate 12 are respectively provided with grooves 22 for the support plate 21 to be fitted. The grooves 22 are defined by two oppositely arranged plates 23.

[0037] Two shaping frames 24 are also installed inside the receiving cavity 18. The two shaping frames 24 are located on opposite sides of the fixed frame 19. The inner side wall of the fixed frame 19 has a protruding abutment edge 251, and the corresponding side wall of the support plate 21 has a protruding abutment edge 252. The shaping frame 24 is positioned against the abutment edge 251 and the abutment edge 252 to support the clothes basket frame 1.

[0038] The specific work process of this plan is as follows: This technical solution embeds the lower edge 4 of the clothes basket frame 1 into the matching annular groove 5 of the frame base 2, so that the inclined abutment surface 61 of the outer wall of the edge 4 and the inclined abutment surface 62 of the corresponding groove wall of the annular groove 5 are in close contact, forming a stable support structure. This effectively disperses and bears the load from the clothes inside the clothes basket frame 1, thereby improving the stress condition at the hinge of the base plate, enhancing structural stability, and improving the overall load-bearing capacity.

[0039] Example 2: See Figure 9 and Figure 10 A folding laundry basket differs from Embodiment 1 in that the side panel 131 near the side panel 2 132 is provided with several hinge rods 91, three in total. Each hinge rod 91 has a hinge post 101 protruding from both ends. Correspondingly, several hinge rods 92 are fixedly provided on the side panel 2 132. A gap matching the length of the hinge rod 91 is left between adjacent hinge rods 92, and each hinge rod 92 is provided with a hinge groove 102 for fitting the hinge post 101. During assembly, each hinge rod 91 is fitted into... The hinge pins 101 protruding from both ends of the hinge pin 91 are rotatably fitted into the corresponding hinge slots 102 on the hinge pin 92, thereby forming multiple parallel hinge connection points between the side plate 131 and the side plate 132, allowing them to rotate relative to each other around the axis of the hinge pins 101, thus realizing the folding function of the side connecting plate 13. Alternatively, the hinge pins 91 are provided with hinge slots 102 at both ends, and the hinge pins 92 are provided with hinge pins 101 for embedding in the hinge slots 102.

[0040] Example 3: See Figure 11 and Figure 12 A foldable dirty laundry garment, differing from Embodiment 1 in that one or more hinge blocks 14 are provided between side panel 131 and side panel 132. This embodiment shows a configuration with three hinge blocks 14. Each hinge block 14 is positioned on the opposite surfaces of side panel 131 and side panel 132. A clearance groove 15 is symmetrically provided between the two side panels. Each hinge block 14 has two coaxial hinge shaft portions 141, and hinge pins 16 protrude from opposite ends of each hinge shaft portion 141. The two hinge shafts 141 of the hinge block 14 are respectively embedded in the corresponding clearance grooves 15 on the side plate 131 and the side plate 2 132. On the opposite sides of the groove wall of each clearance groove 15, there are hinge recesses 17. The hinge pins 16 at both ends of the hinge shaft are embedded in the two hinge recesses 17. The hinge block 14, the side plate 131 and the side plate 2 132 together constitute a movable hinge mechanism. The side plate 131 and the side plate 2 132 can rotate relative to each other around the double hinge axis of the hinge block 14.

[0041] Example 4: See Figure 13The present invention relates to a folding laundry basket, which differs from embodiment 1 in that the upper frame cover 20 is hinged to the upper end of the laundry basket frame 1 and includes a pedal structure for controlling the opening or closing of the upper frame cover 20. The pedal structure is prior art and will not be described in detail here. The pedal structure includes a foot pedal 26 and a sliding rod 27. The foot pedal 26 is hinged to the frame base 2, and its hinge axis is parallel to the hinge axis of the upper frame cover 20. Its front end protrudes from the frame base 2 for stepping. The sliding rod 27 is movably disposed on the rear side of the laundry basket frame. Its lower end is hinged to the rear end of the foot pedal 26 and its upper end is hinged to the rear end of the upper frame cover 20. By stepping down on the front end of the foot pedal 26, the foot pedal 26 rotates, the front end presses down, and the rear end lifts up, thereby driving the sliding rod 27 to move upward as a whole. The sliding rod 27 gives an upward thrust to the rear end of the upper frame cover 20, and the upper frame cover 20 rotates open. When the foot pedal 26 is pressed to the bottom, the upper frame cover 20 reaches the corresponding opening angle.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this technical solution is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this technical solution.
