DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The ideas, specific structures and technical effects of the disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of the disclosure. It should be noted that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present disclosure, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts also fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure. In addition, all coupling/connection relationships involved in the disclosure do not only refer to the direct connection of components, but also include indirect connections, which form a better connection subassembly by adding one or more connection accessories, according to specific implementation conditions. Each technical feature in the disclosure can be combined interactively under the premise of not conflicting with each other.

Referring to FIGS. 1-2, a cabinet door installation auxiliary device includes a support body 1, and a fixing unit and a lifting unit respectively arranged on both sides of the support body 1, wherein the fixing unit includes a bearing plate 2 on the side of the support body 1, a locking block 5 and a support plate 3, the bearing plate 2 and the support plate 3 are arranged in parallel and are respectively integrally formed on the upper and lower ends of the support body 1, thereby improving the reliability of the structure. The support plate 3 is provided with a locking unit for driving the locking block 5 to move toward or away from the bearing plate 2. Specifically, the locking unit includes a first threaded hole 31 provided in the support plate 3 and a screw rod 4 threaded engaged to the first threaded hole 31, the screw rod 4 is fixed to the locking block 5 at one end and installed with a twisting head 6 at the other end. The twisting head 6 in an embodiment may be a plum-shaped hand-twisting rubber head. In other embodiments, the twisting head 6 may be a handle structure with crossbar (T-shaped handle) or other forms of handle structure. When turning the screw rod 4, the twisting head 6 makes the operation more labor-saving. In this way, when the twisting head 6 is rotated, the screw rod 4 and the locking block 5 are forced to rotate, and the screw rod 4 moves in an axial direction relative to the support plate 3 while rotating, thereby adjusting the distance between the locking block 5 and the bearing plate 2. When fixing the cabinet door installation auxiliary device of the present disclosure to a cabinet bottom plate 300 (or shelf), the bearing plate 2 is hanged above the cabinet bottom plate 300, and then the twisting head 6 is rotated to drive the locking block 5 to move until it supports or bears the bottom of the cabinet. Such operations are simple and convenient.

In this embodiment, the cabinet door installation auxiliary device can be installed on the cabinet body in a forward or reverse direction, so as to adapt to the installation of a cabinet door 200 in different positions. FIG. 6 shows the forward installation of the cabinet door installation auxiliary device, in which the bearing plate 2 is hanged above the cabinet bottom plate 300, and the twisting head 6 is rotated to drive the locking block 5 until it abuts against the bottom of the cabinet body. FIG. 7 shows the reverse installation of the cabinet door installation auxiliary device, in which the bearing plate 2 is hanged below the cabinet bottom plate 300, and the twisting head 6 is rotated to drive the locking block 5 until it abuts against the upper surface of the cabinet bottom plate 300.

In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, in order to prevent the cabinet bottom plate 300 from being damaged during the fixing operation of the cabinet door installation auxiliary device, the bearing plate 2 may be provided with a first rubber protective pad 11 on the side facing the locking block 5. The locking block 5 may be a cylindrical or conical rubber block or has a circular cross section, so that the locking block 5 can be more stable when the screw rod 4 rotates.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1-7, the lifting unit includes a support block 9 arranged on the other side of the support body 1, and the support block 9 is slidably connected to the support body 1 and movable in a longitudinal direction relative to the support body 1. The support body 1 is provided with a driving mechanism capable of driving the support block 9 to move longitudinally. During installation, the cabinet door 200 is placed on the support block 9, such that the height of the cabinet door 200 can be adjusted when the support block 9 moves longitudinally. FIG. 5 shows the state changes before and after the longitudinal movement of the support block 9. In addition, in order to prevent damage to the surface of the cabinet door 200, a second rubber protective pad 12 is provided on the support block 9.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 1-7, a sliding assembly is provided between the support block 9 and the support body 1, so that the support block 9 and the support body 1 are slidable relative to each other through the sliding assembly. In a preferred embodiment, the sliding assembly includes a sliding groove 101 provided on the support body 1 and a sliding rail 91 provided on the support block 9. In another preferred embodiment, a sliding groove 101 may be provided on the support block 9, and a sliding rail 91 is correspondingly provided on the support body 1. The sliding groove 101 may have a limiting opening 102 preventing the sliding rail 91 from detaching from the sliding groove 101 in a lateral direction. In this way, the support block 9 can slide on the support body 1 through the sliding rail 91 and the sliding groove 101, and the height of the cabinet door 200 placed on the support block 9 can be adjusted. In addition, in order to improve the stability when the support block 9 slides relative to the support body 1, a plurality of sliding rails 91 and corresponding sliding grooves 101 can be provided. Considering stability and cost, in this embodiment, two sliding rails 91 and two sliding grooves 101 are preferable.

In a preferred embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1-2, the driving mechanism includes a driving rod 8 and a base 7, the base 7 is fixedly connected to the support body 1, and the driving rod 8 is provided with a threaded portion 81, and the support block 9 is provided with a second threaded hole for threaded engagement with the threaded portion 81 of the driving rod 8. The driving rod 8 is rotatably connected to the base 7 at one end and provided with a head 83 at the other end. In order to facilitate the rotation of the driving rod 8, the head 83 is provided with an accommodating hole 84, and a handle 10 is fixedly installed in the accommodating hole 84.

Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 1-5, the base 7 is provided with an aperture 71, a bottom portion of the driving rod 8 is rotatably inserted in the aperture 71, and the bottom portion of the driving rod 8 is provided with an annular limiting groove 82 along its circumference. The base 7 is provided with two limiting holes 72 communicating with the aperture 71, and the two limiting holes 72 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the aperture 71. Two limiting rods 73 are respectively arranged in the two limiting holes 72 in a clearance fit manner. When the limiting rod 73 is positioned in the limiting hole 72, a part of the limiting rod 73 is located in the limiting groove 82, so that the limiting rods 73 restrict the side wall of the limiting groove 82 when the driving rod 8 moves along its axial direction, thereby preventing the driving rod 8 from leaving the base 7. Therefore, the driving rod 8 can only rotate about an axial axis but cannot move axially. Through such arrangements, when the driving rod 8 rotates, the axial position of the driving rod 8 does not change, the support block 9 is driven to slide longitudinally on the support body 1 by the cooperative operation of the threaded portion 81 and the second threaded hole.

The preferred embodiments of the disclosure have been specifically described above, but the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or replacements without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure, and these equivalent modifications or replacements all fall within the scope of the disclosure.
