In other embodiments, referring to fig. 4, 5, 11, 12 and 14, the second container 13 includes a tub 131 with open upper and lower ends and a tub bottom 132 covering the bottom end of the tub 131, i.e., the tub 131 has open upper and lower ends, and the tub 131 has its lower open end closed by the tub bottom 132. The first container 12 can be placed into the tub 131 from the bottom side of the tub 131, and the tub bottom 132 pushes the first container 12 to abut the top end of the first container 12 on the cover plate 11.

In the assembly process, the first container 12 is assembled into the barrel 131 from the bottom side of the barrel 131, then the barrel bottom 132 is connected to the bottom end of the barrel 131, the barrel bottom 132 applies upward extrusion force to the first container 12, and the first container 12 is abutted to the bottom side of the cover plate 11, so that the first container 12 can be installed and positioned.

In this embodiment, the size of the opening in the cover plate 11 for avoiding the first container 12 can be reduced, and the first container 12 does not need to be mounted by screwing down from above the cover plate 11, so that no fastening member such as a screw is exposed on the upper surface of the cover plate 11, and the aesthetic appearance of the door cover assembly 1' is improved.

For example, referring to fig. 1, 9, 10, 11 and 12, the area of the cover plate 11 around the opening 1b of the nursing cavity 1a is recessed downward to form a sink deck 111, and when the sub-cover 2 is in a closed state to close the opening 1b, the sub-cover 2 abuts against the sink deck 111. In this embodiment, the sinking platform 111 can reduce the protruding degree of the sub-cover 2 protruding from the top surface of the cover plate 11, and in addition, can also play a better role in limiting the sub-cover 2.

For example, referring to fig. 11 and 15, a sealing ring 112 is disposed on the sinking platform 111, and when the sub-cover 2 is closed, the bottom surface of the sub-cover 2 is in sealing engagement with the sealing ring 112 to improve the sealing performance of the nursing cavity 1 a.

The first elastic member 42 is used for driving the latch hook 41 to reset.

It will be appreciated that the toggle portion 411 may be moved forward or backward by an external force, such as a force applied by a user.

When the sub-cover 2 is in a closed state closing the opening 1b, the latch hook 41 latches the door hook 21. When the sub-cover 2 needs to be opened, the user pushes the toggle part 411, the latch hook 41 rotates a certain angle until the latch hook 41 releases the door hook 21, and then the user releases the toggle part 411, and the latch hook 41 automatically resets under the action of the first elastic piece 42.

In this embodiment, the lock hook 41 is locked and unlocked in a rotating manner, so that the required movement space is small, and the space can be saved.

For example, referring to fig. 1 and 10, the sinking platform 111 is provided with a through notch 111a, the striking part 411 extends from the through notch 111a to the top surface of the sinking platform 111, and the door hook 21 is inserted into the cavity 1c below the sinking platform 111 from the through notch 111a and locked with the latch hook 41. The poking part 411 protrudes out of the surface of the sinking platform 111, and in fig. 1, 8, 11, 12 and 15, the front end of the sub-cover 2 is provided with an avoidance notch 2a, and when the sub-cover 2 is in a closed state, the poking part 411 is located below the avoidance notch 2 a. The avoidance notch 2a is used for avoiding the poking part 411, and enables the finger of the user to contact the poking part 411.

In some embodiments, after the latch hook 41 releases the door hook 21, the user can flip the sub-cover 2 back to a desired position by hand.

In other embodiments, the door cover assembly 1' includes a second elastic member, and the second elastic member drives the door cover 1 to spring open automatically when the latch hook 41 releases the door hook 21.
