Refrigerator

Abstract

A refrigerator disclosed in the invention comprises a lifting plate placed on the inner side of a storage box and a lifting device used for enabling the lifting plate to move up and down. Furthermore,the lifting device may include a drive motor, a curved rack rotated by receiving a rotational force of the drive motor and bent at a predetermined curvature, and a lifting lever connecting the curvedrack and the lifting plate.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to refrigerators. Background technique [0002] Generally, a refrigerator is a home appliance for low-temperature storage of food in an internal storage space covered by a door of the refrigerator. For this reason, the refrigerator cools the inside of the storage space using cold air generated by heat exchange with the refrigerant circulating in the refrigeration cycle, thereby being able to keep stored food in an optimal state. [0003] With the change of dietary life and the trend of high-end products, recent refrigerators have gradually become larger and more multi-functional. For the convenience of users and the effective use of internal space, various structures and convenience devices are constantly appearing. refrigerator. [0004] The storage space of the refrigerator can be opened and closed through the refrigerator door. In addition, refrigerators can be classified into various forms according to the arrangeme...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, in this prior art, the elevating mechanism for elevating and elevating has a structure that is arranged outside the storage room and is exposed, thereby causing serious safety problems.

In addition, due to the structure of the lifting mechanism exposed to the outside, contamination of the lifting mechanism becomes a problem

[0010] And, since the driving part has a structure exposed to the outside, when the driving part operates, the noise will be directly transmitted to the outside, and thus cause user dissatisfaction.

[0011] In addition, since the frame on which the storage box is placed is L-shaped, the upper end of the frame cannot protrude upward from the upper end of the door

As a result, there is a disadvantage that the lifting height of the storage box is limited

[0012] If the upper end of the vertical part of the frame is made to protrude more than the top surface of the door, the vertical part of the frame will be exposed to the outside, which will affect the appearance

Also, when the frame is lowered, the user's clothes or body parts may be caught, which may cause an accident
