It is to be understood that the above-described fitting portion 111 is formed by the structures on the left and right end sides of the shelf body 112, the rear decorative strip 113 and/or the front decorative strip 114 in combination.

The shelf assembly 1 further comprises a limiting member 12 rotatably connected to the shelf 11, wherein the limiting member 12 has an initial state and a limiting state.

When the limiting member 12 is in the initial state, the limiting member 12 may be set to protrude from the assembling portion 111 in the up-down direction and/or in the direction in which the assembling portion 111 deviates from the accommodating portion, so that, in the process of pushing and pulling the shelf 11 forward and backward, the limiting member 12 in the initial state does not interfere with the supporting frame 21 forming the slot 211, and the height of the slot 211 is not affected by the overall structure of the limiting member 12, so that the height of the slot 211 can be set to match the thickness of the shelf 11, that is, to match the thickness of the assembling portion 111, and after the shelf 11 is assembled, the slot 211 is matched with the assembling portion 111 to limit the shelf 11 in the up-down direction, so as to prevent the shelf 11 from shaking in the up-down direction.

Therefore, after the shelf component 1 is assembled, the insertion groove 211 is matched with the shelf 11, and meanwhile, the limiting groove 212 is matched with the limiting piece 12, so that the shelf 11 can be limited in the vertical direction and the front-back direction, the shelf 11 is prevented from shaking, and the assembling and storage stability of the shelf 11 is enhanced.

Further, the shelf assembly 1 further includes a mounting structure 13 for rotatably connecting the position limiting member 12 to the shelf 11.

Referring to fig. 1 to 12, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the mounting structure 13 includes a rotating shaft 131 disposed on one of the limiting member 12 and the shelf 11 and extending in the front-back direction, and a shaft sleeve 132 disposed on the other and engaged with the rotating shaft 131.

Specifically, the shaft tube 132 is provided with a shaft hole 1321 for the rotating shaft 131 to pass through, and the limiting member 12 is installed on the shelf 11 by matching the rotating shaft 131 with the shaft tube 132, and meanwhile, the limiting member 12 can rotate relative to the shelf 11.

In a specific embodiment, the limiting member 12 is disposed on the front end surface and/or the rear end surface of the shelf 11, and the mounting structure 13 is correspondingly disposed on the front end surface and/or the rear end surface of the shelf 11, so as to simplify the mounting structure 13 and facilitate assembly of the limiting member 12.

Of course, it is understood that the limiting member 12 may also be disposed on the upper end surface and/or the lower end surface of the shelf 11, and at this time, when the limiting member 12 is located at the initial state, the limiting member 12 is far away from the assembling portion 111, so that, in the process of pushing and pulling the shelf 11 back and forth, the limiting member 12 located at the initial state does not interfere with the supporting frame 21 forming the slot 211; when the limiting member 12 is located at the limiting state, at least a part of the limiting member 12 rotates to protrude out of the assembling portion 111 along the vertical direction and/or the direction of the assembling portion 111 deviating from the object placing portion, and a step-like structure is formed between the assembling portion 111, and meanwhile, the limiting member 12 can extend into the limiting groove 212 and is tightly matched with the limiting groove 212 to limit the limiting member 12 along the front-back direction, namely, the shelf 11 is limited along the front-back direction, so that the shelf 11 is prevented from swinging along the front-back direction.

It can be understood that, in the embodiment where the limiting member 12 is disposed on the upper end surface and/or the lower end surface of the shelf 11, when the limiting member 12 is in the limiting state, if the limiting member 12 is located on the upper end surface and/or the lower end surface of the assembling portion 111, the limiting member 12 protrudes out of the assembling portion 111 in the up-down direction; if the limiting member 12 is located on the upper end surface and/or the lower end surface of the assembling portion 111, and meanwhile, one end of the limiting member 12, which is far away from the object placing portion, protrudes out of the shelf 11, the limiting member 12 protrudes out of the assembling portion 111 along the vertical direction and the direction of the assembling portion 111, which is far away from the object placing portion.

It is understood that the structure of the limiting groove 212 is adapted to the limiting member 12 in the limiting state.

Next, the shelf assembly 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail by taking an example in which the limiting member 12 is disposed on the rear end surface of the shelf 11.

Further, the limiting member 12 is rotatably connected to the decorative strip, so that the limiting member 12 is connected to the shelf 11.

In one embodiment, the limiting member 12 is mounted on the rear end surface of the rear decorative strip 113; of course, the limiting member 12 may be rotatably connected to the rear decorative strip 113 or the other end surface of the front decorative strip 114 in other embodiments. It is understood that the assembling position of the position limiting member 12 only needs to correspond to the position of the position limiting groove 212.

Specifically, the rotating shaft 131 is disposed on the rear decoration strip 113, and at this time, the shaft cylinder 132 is disposed on the limiting member 12; of course, this is not a limitation.

Meanwhile, the rotating shaft 131 and the rear decorative strip 113 are integrally formed, and the shaft cylinder 132 and the limiting member 12 are integrally formed, so that the manufacturing process of the shelf assembly 1 is simplified.

Further, the shelf assembly 1 further includes an anti-separation structure 14 for limiting the shaft sleeve 132 to be separated from the rotating shaft 131 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 131, so as to limit the axial movement of the shaft sleeve 132 along the rotating shaft 131, and enhance the stability of the rotation of the limiting member 12.

It is understood that in the embodiment where the limiting member 12 is disposed on the rear end surface of the rear decorative strip 113, the anti-falling structure 14 can prevent the shaft tube 132 from falling off the rotating shaft 131 backwards, which causes the limiting member 12 to fall off the shelf 11.

Further, the retaining structure 14 includes a connecting wall 141 provided on the shelf 11 and extending in the same direction as the rotating shaft 131, and a retaining wall 142 protruding from an end of the connecting wall 141 away from the shelf 11 toward the rotating shaft 131, that is, the connecting wall 141 is formed by extending rearward from a rear end surface of the rear decorative strip 113; therefore, after the shaft tube 132 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 131, the shaft tube 132 is located between the anti-release wall 142 and the rear end surface of the rear decorative strip 113, that is, the anti-release wall 142 and the rear decorative strip 113 limit the shaft tube 132 together along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 131, and the shaft tube 132 is prevented from being separated from the rotating shaft 131 along the axial direction.

Of course, the specific structure of the anti-separation structure 14 is not limited thereto, and it should be understood that the anti-separation structure 14 only has to achieve the function of limiting the shaft barrel 132 from separating from the rotating shaft 131 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 131.

Further, a mounting groove 1322 is formed on the shaft tube 132, and the shaft tube 132 has elasticity, so as to facilitate the assembly between the rotating shaft 131 and the shaft tube 132.

The initial opening size of the mounting groove 1322 is smaller than the diameter of the rotating shaft 131, during the process of mounting the limiting member 12, the opening of the mounting groove 1322 is enlarged under the action of an external force, so that the rotating shaft 131 can enter the shaft hole 1321 from the mounting groove 1322, after the rotating shaft 131 enters the shaft hole 1321, the opening of the mounting groove 1322 returns to the initial size under the action of the elastic restoring force of the shaft barrel 132, so that the rotating shaft 131 is prevented from separating from the shaft barrel 132 from the mounting groove 1322. Therefore, the shaft tube 132 can be directly sleeved on the rotating shaft 131 from the lateral direction of the rotating shaft 131 through the mounting slot 1322, and the shaft tube 132 is located between the anti-release wall 142 and the rear decoration strip 113, thereby simplifying the assembly of the limiting member 12.

Further, be equipped with on the pivot 131 and let position portion 1311, let position portion 1311 follow the radial width of pivot 131 is less than the diameter of pivot 131, simultaneously, let position portion 1311 follow the radial width of pivot 131 is greater than the initial opening size of mounting groove 1322, mounting groove 1322 with let position portion 1311 cooperate, in order to realize the shaft section of thick bamboo 132 with the assembly between the pivot 131, more be convenient for with locating part 12 installs to on the shelf 11.

Specifically, the relief portion 1311 is located between the rear trim panel 113 and the release prevention wall 142.

Further, the shelf assembly 1 further comprises a positioning structure 15 for positioning the position-limiting member 12 in the initial state or the position-limiting state. In the process of pushing and pulling the shelf 11 forward and backward, the limiting member 12 is stably positioned in the initial state by the positioning structure 15, and the limiting member 12 is prevented from rotating to a position corresponding to the assembling portion 111 and protruding out of the assembling portion 111, so that interference is generated between the limiting member 12 and the insertion groove 211, and the pushing and pulling of the shelf 11 are influenced; after the shelf 11 is pushed backward, the limiting member 12 is manually rotated to a limiting state, and at this time, the limiting member 12 is stably positioned in the limiting state by the positioning structure 15, so that the stability of the matching between the limiting member 12 and the limiting groove 212 is enhanced, and the limiting effect of the limiting member 12 on the shelf 11 is enhanced.

In one embodiment, the positioning structure 15 includes a positioning protrusion 151 disposed on one of the shaft cylinder 132 and the rotating shaft 131, and a positioning groove 152 disposed on the other and engaged with the positioning protrusion 151. Of course, this is not a limitation.

In the present embodiment, the positioning structure 15 is only provided to position the limiting member 12 in the limiting state. Specifically, the positioning protrusion 151 is disposed on the shaft sleeve 132, the positioning groove 152 is disposed on the rotating shaft 131, and when the limiting member 12 is in the limiting state, the positioning protrusion 151 and the positioning groove 152 are matched to realize stable limiting of the limiting member 12 in the limiting state.

It can be understood that, because the shaft tube 132 has elasticity and the positioning protrusion 151 is always abutted against the outer surface of the rotating shaft 131, a certain limiting effect can be achieved to prevent the shaft tube 132 from freely rotating around the rotating shaft 131.

Of course, it is not limited thereto, and it is understood that two positioning grooves 152 may be provided to cooperate with the positioning protrusion 151, one of the two positioning grooves 152 cooperates with the positioning protrusion 151 to limit the limiting member 12 in the initial state, and the other cooperates with the positioning protrusion 151 to limit the limiting member 12 in the limiting state.

In this embodiment, when the limiting member 12 is in the initial state, the positioning bump 151 is set to be located at the position of the yielding portion 1311, so as to achieve a certain limiting effect.

Further, the shelf assembly 1 further includes a stopping structure 16 disposed on the shelf 11 to limit the rotation angle of the limiting member 12.

Specifically, the stopping structure 16 includes a first stopping portion 161 corresponding to the initial state and a second stopping portion 162 corresponding to the limiting state, and when the limiting member 12 rotates from the initial state to contact with the second stopping portion 162, it indicates that the limiting member 12 has rotated to the limiting state, and the second stopping portion 162 limits the limiting member 12 to continue rotating; when the limiting member 12 rotates from the limiting state to contact with the first stopping portion 161, it indicates that the limiting member 12 has rotated to the initial state, and the first stopping portion 161 limits the limiting member 12 to continue rotating.

In this embodiment, the limiting member 12 is set to rotate 90 ° from the initial state to the limiting state, and when the limiting member 12 is in the limiting state, the limiting member 12 protrudes out of the assembling portion 111 along the vertical direction.

Specifically, in the embodiment shown in fig. 10, the first stopping portion 161 and the second stopping portion 162 are configured to cooperate with one end of the limiting member 12, which is configured on the shaft sleeve 132; of course, it is understood that all the structures of the first blocking portion 161 and the second blocking portion 162 that can achieve the purpose of limiting the rotation angle of the limiting member 12 are within the protection scope of the present invention.

Of course, it is not limited thereto, and it is understood that the limiting member 12 may also be set to rotate 180 ° from the initial state to the limiting state, and at this time, when the limiting member 12 is in the limiting state, the limiting member 12 may be set to protrude from the assembling portion 111 on the side of the assembling portion 111 departing from the object placing portion, so as to cooperate with the limiting groove 212 to limit the shelf 11.

In one embodiment, the stopping structure 16 is disposed on the rear end surface of the rear decoration strip 113, and the stopping structure 16 is integrally formed with the anti-dropping structure 14, so as to simplify the structure of the shelf assembly 1.

In the process of pushing and pulling the shelf 11 forward and backward, the limiting piece 12 in the initial state does not interfere with the support frame 21 forming the insertion groove 211, and the height of the insertion groove 211 is not affected by the limiting piece 12, so that the height of the insertion groove 211 can be set to be matched with the thickness of the shelf 11, namely matched with the thickness of the assembling portion 111, and after the shelf 11 is assembled, the insertion groove 211 is matched with the assembling portion 111 to limit the shelf 11 in the up-and-down direction, so that the shelf 11 is prevented from shaking in the up-and-down direction.

After the shelf 11 is pushed backward to a certain position, the limiting part 12 is manually rotated to a limiting state from an initial state, at least part of the limiting part 12 extends along the up-down direction and/or the assembling part 111 deviates from the direction of the object placing part and protrudes out of the assembling part 111, a step-like structure is formed between the assembling parts 111, and meanwhile, the limiting part 12 can extend into the limiting groove 212 and is tightly matched with the limiting groove 212 to limit the limiting part 12 along the front-back direction, namely, limit the shelf 11 along the front-back direction, so that the shelf 11 is prevented from swinging along the front-back direction.

It should be understood that the above-mentioned tight fit does not limit the fit clearance between the limiting member 12 and the limiting groove 212, i.e. a certain fit clearance is allowed between the limiting member 12 and the limiting groove 212, as long as the effect of preventing the shelf 11 from shaking can reach the expectation of the user.

Specifically, the limiting member 12 is made of ABS, PC or POM; of course, this is not a limitation.
