A flip vertical beam assembly for side-by-side refrigerators and the refrigerator

Abstract

The invention provides an overturning vertical beam module for a side-by-side combination refrigerator and a refrigerator, and belongs to the field of refrigerators. The overturning vertical beam module comprises a vertical beam body, a motor fixed in the vertical beam body and arranged to enable the axial direction of an output shaft thereof to extend in the longitudinal direction of the verticalbeam body, a gear transmission module whose driving gear is connected to the output shaft of the motor and driven gear is engaged with the driving gear, and a base whose one side is connected with the driven gear and the other side is fixed on a refrigerator door body to enable the motor to drive the vertical beam body to rotate relative to the refrigerator door body during rotating. The invention further provides the refrigerator with the overturning vertical beam module. In the overturning vertical beam module and the refrigerator, the overturning angle of the vertical beam body is precisely controlled through the motor without being influenced by the position state and mounting errors of the refrigerator door body; precise overturning of the vertical beam body relative to the refrigerator door body can be realized; and the refrigerator sealing problem caused by overturning failure of the vertical beam body is effectively prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of refrigerators, in particular to an overturning vertical beam assembly for side-by-side refrigerators and the refrigerator. Background technique [0002] There is usually a gap between the two door bodies of the refrigerating room of the side-by-side refrigerator, and generally a vertical beam is arranged on one of the door bodies to seal the gap between the two door bodies. Specifically, when the door body is opened, the vertical beam is turned over to form a certain angle with the door body, and when the door body is closed, the vertical beam is turned over to a state parallel to the door body to seal the aforementioned gap. [0003] In the prior art, the overturning of the vertical beam is usually completed through a mechanical structure, for example, by setting a guide piece above the vertical beam, and setting a corresponding guide groove on the box, and the guide piece is limited by the guide groove to realize...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, because the door body of the refrigerator will fall over time, or due to the installation error of the vertical beam, the cooperation between the expansion part and the base will often be inaccurate, so that the vertical beam cannot be turned over normally.
