Hinge device and refrigerator with same

Abstract

The invention provides a hinge device and a refrigerator with the same. The hinge device comprises an adjusting assembly and a hinge assembly connecting a refrigerator body and a door body, the hinge assembly comprises a hinge arranged on the refrigerator body and a hinge shaft arranged on the door body, and the hinge is provided with a mounting long groove for the hinge shaft to penetrate through; the adjusting assembly comprises a check block arranged on the hinge, a rotating piece mounted on the hinge shaft and rotating along with the hinge shaft and an elastic piece acting on the outer contour of the rotating piece to abut against the check block all the time, and the outer contour of the rotating piece comprises a first position and a second position; the first distance between the first position and the hinge shaft is smaller than the second distance between the second position and the hinge shaft, and when the door body is closed, the first position makes contact with the check block; and when the door body is opened, the hinge shaft drives the rotating piece to rotate so that the second position makes contact with the check block, and the hinge shaft moves in the mounting long groove. Through cooperation of the mounting long groove, the check block, the rotating piece and the elastic piece, automatic door closing of the door body is achieved, and the maximum door opening angle of the door body is controlled.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of refrigerators, in particular to a refrigerator with automatic door closing and maximum door opening angle control. Background technique [0002] The existing refrigerator includes a box body, a door body, and a hinge assembly pivotally connecting the door body and the box body. After the door is opened, if the user forgets to close the door, the door will always be in the open state, which not only causes energy waste but also affects the refrigeration or freezing effect of the refrigerator. On the other hand, the door body can be opened to any angle, so it is easy to collide with surrounding objects during use, causing damage to the door body, which is extremely inconvenient to use. [0003] In view of this, it is necessary to provide an improved refrigerator to solve the above problems. Contents of the invention [0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a hinge device and a refriger...
