Technical Field
[0002] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of folding furniture, and particularly
relates to a connecting mechanism for a tilt-up folding door and furniture with a
connecting mechanism for a tilt-up folding door.
Background Art
[0003] Furniture is an indispensable part of home life. With the increasing number of living
items at home, furniture that can be used for storage is gradually favored by more
and more people, and the usage experience of users may be directly influenced by the
size of the storage capacity, and the convenience and the security in operations of
the furniture with a storage function. Taking cabinets as an example, at present,
cabinets are mainly divided into base cabinets and wall cabinets, wherein wall cabinets
are usually mounted on the wall, and because the space on its both sides is generally
small, even to save space, the cabinet doors of the wall cabinets generally have to
be opened in an upturned manner, and thus, such wall cabinets are often referred to
as cabinets with a tilt-up door.
[0004] Cabinets with an overhead door have advantages such as large storage capacity and
space saving, and the application thereof in the design of wall cabinets is favored
by more and more people. A cabinet with a tilt-up door comprises usually a cabinet
body, a cabinet door, a connecting component connected on the cabinet door, and a
tilt-up laborsaving component mounted in the cabinet body, wherein the connecting
component and the tilt-up laborsaving component are clamped with each other, and the
connection structure is simple and the installation is convenient.
[0005] Specifically, the tilt-up laborsaving component is provided with a first clamping
groove and a second clamping groove, while the connecting component is provided with
a first clamping portion and a second clamping portion, wherein the first clamping
portion is in connection with the first clamping groove, and the second clamping portion
is in connection with the second clamping groove. When in use, it is required to firstly
clamp the first clamping portion of the connecting component with the first clamping
groove of the tilt-up laborsaving component, and then rotate the connecting component
in the first clamping groove, such that the second clamping portion of the connecting
component can be clamped in the second clamping groove, hereby realizing the connection
between the connecting component and the tilt-up laborsaving component. As for the
above-mentioned clamping structure, although the connection between the connecting
component and the tilt-up laborsaving component can be realized, during the installation,
it is required to firstly manually align the first clamping portion of the connecting
component with the first clamping groove of the tilt-up laborsaving component, and
then rotate the connecting component, such that the second clamping portion of the
connecting component can be clamped with the second clamping groove of the tilt-up
laborsaving component, which aligning procedure is troublesome and both time and labor
consuming.

with the clamping component 300; when the tilt-up laborsaving component 100 is inserted
in the connecting component 200, the clamping component 300 can cooperate with the
clamping portion by way of clamping, hereby realizing the connection between the tilt-up
laborsaving component 100 and the connecting component 200; during the installation,
for the clamped connection between the clamping component 300 and the clamping portion,
the tilt-up laborsaving component 100 only needs to be directly inserted into the
internal of the connecting component 200, wherein only one step is required to realize
the connection between the connecting component 200 and the tilt-up laborsaving component
100, which indicates a simple mounting structure and saving of both time and labor.
[0036] Specifically, the tilt-up laborsaving component 100, the connecting component 200,
and the clamping component 300 can be implemented in a preferred embodiment as follows:
as shown in Figs. 1, 2, and 6, a cam component 101 is provided on the end of the tilt-up
laborsaving component 100 departing from the cabinet body; the end of the cam component
101 departing from the tilt-up laborsaving component 100, viz. the right-hand end,
is provided with a projecting segment 102; and the connecting component 200 is provided
with a connecting groove 201, into which the projecting segment 102 can be inserted,
and within which the clamping component 300 is in rotatable connection. Specifically,
as shown in Figs. 2 and 4, the clamping component 300 includes a double torsion spring
301 and a latch fastener 302; the double torsion spring 301 includes a first spring
portion 303, a second spring portion 304, and a spring arm 305; the right-hand end
of the first spring portion 303 and the inner wall on the right side of the connecting

segment 102, wherein when the projecting segment 102 is inserted into the connecting
groove 201, the projecting segment 102 can push the latch fastener 302 and the double
torsion spring 301 to rotate, then the latch fastener 302 can abut against and be
fixed with the abutting groove 103 under the effect of the torsional force of the
double torsion spring 301, wherein a clamped fixation between the projecting segment
102 of the tilt-up laborsaving component 100 and the connecting component 200 is realized
with the effect of the double torsion spring 301 and the latch fastener 302. It can
be understood that as for the connecting mechanism for a tilt-up folding door provided

of the latch fastener 302 and the double torsion spring 301, and when in use, it is
only required to align the portion of the projecting segment 102 of the tilt-up laborsaving
component 100 provided with the abutting groove 103 with the latch fastener 302, wherein
the aligning step is simple, and repeated manual alignments are unnecessary, which
indicates saving of time and labor.
[0037] Specifically, if not being inserted into the connecting component 200, the double
torsion spring 301 is in a normal state without a pressing force; when the connecting
mechanism for a tilt-up folding door provided in the present embodiment is used, the
projecting segment 102 of the cam component 101 extends into the connecting groove
201 of the connecting component 200, and with the continuous advancing of the projecting
segment 102 of the cam component 101, the lower end of the latch fastener 302 is brought
into contact with the right-hand end of the projecting segment 102, and the lower
end of the latch fastener 302 is lifted, and at this time, the double torsion spring
301 is tightened up, and thus, the double torsion spring 301 exerts a counterforce

on the projecting segment 102, and when the projecting segment 102 moves to the abutting
groove 103, the latch fastener 302 is locked in the abutting groove 103 under the
effect of the double torsion spring 301, realizing a clamped connection between the
tilt-up laborsaving component 100 and the connecting component 200, wherein the clamping
structure is convenient and is easy to mount.

of the connecting component 200, the spring pin shaft on the connecting component
200 can cooperate with the circular through hole on the projecting segment 102 to
be clamped therein, realizing the connection between the tilt-up laborsaving component
100 and the connecting component 200, wherein the installation is facilitated and
is time- and labor-saving; and when the tilt-up laborsaving component 100 and the
connecting component 200 need to be detached, it is only required to press the spring
pin shaft on the connecting component 200, such that the spring pin shaft is separated
from the circular through hole, wherein the detaching is facilitated.

slot 203 being the same as the extension direction of the connecting groove 201; when
the projecting segment 102 of the tilt-up laborsaving component 100 is inserted into
the connecting component 200, the lower end of the latch fastener 302 of the clamping
component 300 passes through the communicating slot 203 and is then brought into connection
with the abutting groove 103 on the tilt-up laborsaving component 100, and the latch
fastener 302 can swing in the communicating slot 203, which facilitates the movement
of the latch fastener 302. If it is required to detach the tilt-up laborsaving component
100 from the connecting component 200, the upper end of the latch fastener 302 is
to be pressed directly, such that the latch fastener 302 swings in the communicating
slot 203, hereby enabling the lower end of the latch fastener 302 to be separated
from the abutting groove 103, wherein the detaching is facilitated and a simple structure
is realized by adopting the clamping component 300 and the communicating slot 203.
