Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the hinge of the refrigerator is fixed with multiple fixing holes, and the positioning of the positioning parts is used to make the positioning and fixation of the refrigerator door and the cabinet extremely stable, but the adjustability is poor. If the door body is dislocated or not parallel to the box body due to collision, the only maintenance method is to replace the door body, which consumes the user's time and the company's manpower and material resources
In addition, long-term use of the refrigerator will also cause the door body to be unequal in height. Once the hinges are installed, it is quite troublesome to adjust the door body

Abstract

The invention provides a hinge assembly. The hinge assembly comprises a seat body, a plurality of hinge holes formed in the seat body and a reinforcing piece arranged at the inner side of a refrigerator body. The reinforcing piece is provided with positioning pieces which penetrate through the refrigerator body and are matched with the hinge holes. A protruding block is arranged on the hole wall of each hinge hole or on one of the positioning pieces. When the positioning pieces are arranged in the hinge holes in a matched mode, the protruding block abuts against the hole wall of the corresponding hinge hole or the other one of the positioning pieces. The invention further provides a refrigerator provided with the hinge assembly. When a refrigerator door body is dislocated or is unparallel to the refrigerator body, the protruding block can be stressed and deformed by tapping the hinge seat body so that the hinge seat body can be displaced, and accordingly the position of the door body can be adjusted according to requirements. The hinge assembly and the refrigerator have the advantages of being easy to operate, low in cost, safe and reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hinge structure, in particular to a hinge assembly and a refrigerator capable of correcting the dislocation of the door body or the non-parallel relative to the box body. Background technique [0002] The top of the existing refrigerator box is usually provided with a hinge connecting the door body and the box body, and the inner side of the box is provided with a reinforcement for strengthening the positioning of the hinge and the box body, and the hinge is provided with a plurality of hinge holes. A locating piece cooperating with the hinge hole will also be provided on the reinforcement piece. Usually, the diameter of the hinge hole is the same as that of the locating piece. When the locating piece extends into the hinge hole, the locating piece will The diameter of the hinge hole is the same as that of the hinge hole, so that the door body of the refrigerator can be accurately positioned, so that the hinge is firmly fixed...
