Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of refrigerator technology, and in particular to a sealing structure for a double-door refrigerator. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of society, car refrigerators have become a standard accessory for automobiles. Generally, car refrigerators come in two types: single-door and double-door. Double-door car refrigerators have sealing strips on both the left and right doors. When the doors are closed, the sealing strips on the left and right doors will abut against each other, thereby sealing the refrigerator and preventing cold air from leaking out.

[0003] For example, patent CN118935860A discloses a sealing mechanism for a double-door car refrigerator, including a cabinet with an open top, a left cabinet cover and a right cabinet cover hinged to the cabinet, and a sealing component between the left cabinet cover and the right cabinet cover when the left cabinet cover and the right cabinet cover are closed, which can seal the gap between the two.

[0004] The problem with the above technology is that, in order to effectively prevent cold air leakage, the sealing components on the left and right lids are tightly fitted together, and the friction between the two sealing components is relatively large. Therefore, users need to apply more force when closing the refrigerator lid. However, if the friction between the two sealing components is reduced to make it easier for users to close the refrigerator lid, the sealing components will not be able to guarantee sufficient sealing, and cold air will be lost from the refrigerator.

[0005] To address this issue, a sealing structure for a double-door refrigerator is proposed to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a sealing structure for a double-door refrigerator that can ensure sufficient sealing while reducing the pressure on the user to close the lid.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the problem is: a sealing structure for a double-door refrigerator, including a cabinet with a top opening, both ends of which are hinged with lids. A sealing assembly is movably disposed on one of the lids. The sealing assembly includes a shaft arranged along the length of the lid and a vertically moving transmission rod. A spring is disposed between the lid and the transmission rod. The lower end of the transmission rod extends to the bottom outer side of the lid. A sealing strip is sleeved on the shaft. When the lid is closed, the lower end of the transmission rod abuts against the top edge of the cabinet. The transmission rod moves upward and drives the shaft to rotate. The sealing strip rotates with the shaft to the inner side of the other lid and abuts against it.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a chamber is provided inside the box cover, the transmission rod is movably disposed in the chamber, the spring is disposed between the transmission rod and the inner wall of the top of the chamber, the lower end of the transmission rod passes through the chamber and extends to the outer bottom of the box cover; both box covers have grooves at their bottoms, the shaft is movably disposed in the grooves, and the end of the shaft passes through the grooves and extends into the chamber; when the box cover is closed, the sealing strip will move into the groove of the other box cover, and the sealing strip abuts against the inner wall of the groove.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the transmission rod is provided with teeth and also includes a gear, which is fixedly connected to the end of the shaft and meshes with the teeth.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the box cover is provided with an installation groove, and also includes an upper shell and a bottom shell. The upper shell covers the bottom shell, and the upper shell and the bottom shell form a cavity. The installation groove is provided with a buckle groove, and the bottom shell is provided with a buckle, which engages with the buckle groove.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a protruding post is provided at the top of the transmission rod, a limiting groove is provided inside the upper shell, and the spring is sleeved on the protruding post and located in the limiting groove.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, a protrusion extends laterally from the opening of the box body, the protrusion being located below the sealing strip, and the sealing strip abutting against the protrusion.

[0013] The box lid includes an upper lid and a bottom lid, and the top of the upper lid is covered with a leather section.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: when the lid is closed, the lower end of the transmission rod abuts against the top edge of the box, the transmission rod moves upward and drives the shaft to rotate, the sealing strip rotates with the shaft to the inside of the other lid and abuts against it, thereby forming a seal. The lid is less affected by the friction of the sealing component during the closing process, and the closing operation can be achieved with less force, while ensuring sufficient sealing of the box.
