Refrigerator and storage device thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a refrigerator and a storage device thereof. The storage device of the refrigerator comprises an upper shelf, a lower shelf and two connecting assemblies, wherein the upper shelf is installed to the inner wall of a storage compartment of the refrigerator; the lower shelf is arranged below the upper shelf in a mode that the lower shelf can move horizontally; and each connecting assembly comprises a front connecting rod and a rear connecting rod, the first end of each connecting rod is hinged to the transverse end of the lower shelf, and the second end of each connecting rod is hinged to the transverse end of the upper shelf directly or indirectly, so that a parallelogram mechanism is formed jointly by the two connecting rods, the upper shelf and the lower shelf, and thus the lower shelf is allowed to move upwards to the folding position close to the lower side of the upper shelf or move downwards to an unfolding position for storage. By the adoption of the storage device, the space below the storage device can be utilized reasonably.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a refrigerating and freezing device, in particular to a refrigerator and a storage device thereof. Background technique [0002] A refrigerator is an essential household appliance for storing food. The refrigerator usually includes an inner container, on which multiple sets of gall bars are arranged, and a shelf is placed on one or more sets of gall bars, so that the storage compartment has multiple partitions. Users can also place different items on the shelf. However, when the user is storing meals, eggs, cakes and other foods that cannot be stacked, the space between the upper shelf and the food is often not fully utilized. [0003] In order to make full use of the space between the two layers of shelves, some refrigerators set the distance between the two layers of shelves relatively small, but this situation is not suitable for storing taller items. That is to say, the shape of the food stored by the user during actual ...

Problems solved by technology

However, when users store foods that cannot be stacked, such as meals, eggs, and cakes, the space between the upper shelf and the food is often not fully utilized.

[0003] In order to make full use of the space between the two shelves, some refrigerators set the distance between the two shelves relatively small, but this situation is not suitable for storing taller items

That is to say, the shape of the food stored by the user in the actual use process is irregular. If the reserved space is too large, it is easy to cause waste of space. If the reserved space is too small, it cannot meet the needs of the user for storing large pieces of food.
