[0020] Those skilled in the art will understand more clearly the above and other objects, advantages, and features of the present invention from the following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Description of the Drawings
[0021] Some specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings in an exemplary but not restrictive manner. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar components or parts. Those skilled in the art should understand that these drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0026] Figure 5 is Figure 4 Partial enlarged view of the area B shown. Detailed implementation mode
[0027] This embodiment provides a refrigerator 10, which includes a cabinet assembly 100, an inner door 200, an outer door 300, and a light switch 400. Figure 1 Side sectional view of the refrigerator 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is Figure 1 Partial enlarged view of the area A shown.
[0028] The cabinet assembly 100 defines a storage compartment 110 having a compartment opening (specifically, the compartment opening can be a forward compartment opening). Among them, the storage compartment 110 can include a refrigerating compartment, a freezing compartment, and a variable-temperature compartment. As is well known to those skilled in the art, the temperature in the refrigerating compartment is generally between 2°C and 10°C, preferably between 4°C and 7°C. The temperature range in the freezing compartment is generally between -22°C and -14°C. The variable-temperature compartment can be adjusted arbitrarily between -18°C and 8°C. The optimal storage temperatures of different types of items are not the same, and the suitable storage locations are also not the same. For example, fruits and vegetables are suitable for storage in the refrigerating compartment, while meat is suitable for storage in the freezing compartment.
[0029] The refrigeration system is configured to provide cooling capacity to the storage compartment 110. The refrigeration system can be a refrigeration cycle system composed of a compressor, a condenser, a throttling device, an evaporator, etc., or a semiconductor refrigeration system. Since the refrigeration principle of the refrigerator 10 is well known to those skilled in the art, it will not be elaborated here.
[0030] The inner door 200 is arranged outside the box body assembly 100 (specifically, it can be arranged on the front side of the box body assembly) at a position corresponding to the opening of the compartment. The inner door 200 is provided with an inner door opening 210 extending along the arrangement direction of the box body assembly and the inner door (specifically, it can be the front-back direction, and the front-back direction is the direction from the side of the inner door 200 away from the storage compartment 110 to the side close to the storage compartment 110, that is, the direction of the inner door opening 210 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening is along the front-back direction). The inner door 200 is used to open or partially close the compartment opening. The inner door 200 has a contact surface 220 that contacts the box body assembly 100 when partially closing the compartment opening. The inner door 200 is provided with a sliding hole 230 extending from the contact surface 220 in the direction away from the storage compartment (specifically, it can extend forward). A sliding rod 240 that can move along the sliding hole 230 is arranged in the sliding hole 230.
[0031] The outer door 300 is arranged on the side of the inner door 200 away from the storage compartment (specifically, the outer door 300 can be arranged on the front side of the inner door 200) at a position corresponding to the inner door opening 210, and is used to open or close the inner door opening 210. The refrigerator 10 with such an inner door 200 and an outer door 300 can reduce cold leakage. The refrigerator 10 with such an inner door 200 and an outer door 300 is usually also called a door-in-door refrigerator.
[0032] The lamp switch 400 is arranged in the area of the box body assembly 100 corresponding to the sliding rod 240. The lamp switch 400 has a switch part 410 that can move along the arrangement direction of the box body assembly and the inner door (specifically, it can be the front-back direction). The switch part 410 is configured to push the sliding rod 240 to protrude from the contact surface 220 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 opens the inner door opening 210, so as to turn on the lamp in the storage compartment 110 (that is, when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 opens the inner door opening 210, the switch part 410 pushes the sliding rod 240, so that the switch part 410 protrudes from the contact surface 220).
[0033] Specifically, the switch part 410 of such a lamp switch 400 has elasticity. When the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 opens the inner door opening 210, under the action of the elastic force, the switch part 410 not only pops out itself, but also pushes the sliding rod 240 to move. When the switch part 410 pops out, the lamp is turned on. Since the structure of such a lamp switch 400 is well-known and easy to implement by those skilled in the art, it will not be elaborated here.
[0034] Such a refrigerator 10 only needs one lamp switch 400 to turn on the lamp in the storage compartment 110 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 opens the inner door opening 210, with low cost and simple structure.
[0035] The outer door 300 has an inner surface 310 which is configured to press the sliding rod 240 to press the switch portion 410 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 closes the inner door opening 210, so as to turn off the light of the storage compartment 110.
[0036] This setting makes the light turn off when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 closes the inner door opening 210, thus saving energy.
[0037] The cabinet assembly 100 may include a cabinet body 120 and a hinge 130. The cabinet body 120 defines a storage compartment 110 having a compartment opening.
[0038] The hinge 130 is used to pivot the inner door 200 and the outer door 300. The hinge 130 has a hinge box 131 located on the cabinet body 120 (specifically, the hinge 130 has a hinge box 131 located above the cabinet body 120). The hinge box 131 has a box wall that contacts the inner door 200 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening. The box wall is provided with a wall hole extending along the arrangement direction of the cabinet assembly and the inner door (specifically, the box wall is provided with a wall hole extending along the front-rear direction), and the hinge box 131 defines a box cavity 132.
[0039] The light switch 400 is disposed in the box cavity 132, which can improve the space utilization rate. The switch portion 410 of the light switch 400 is disposed at a position corresponding to the wall hole, and the switch portion 410 can telescopically move along the extending direction of the wall hole. Disposing the light switch 400 in the box cavity 132 facilitates the production and processing of the refrigerator 10.
[0040] The hinge 130 may also have components such as a hinge shaft. Since the structure of the hinge 130 is well-known to those skilled in the art, it will not be elaborated here.
[0041] In some other embodiments, the light switch 400 may also be disposed at the rear part of the front frame of the cabinet body 120, and the switch portion 410 protrudes from the front frame.
[0042] The sliding rod 240 may include a sliding portion 241 and a contact portion 243.
[0043] The sliding portion 241 extends along the arrangement direction of the cabinet assembly and the inner door (specifically, the sliding portion 241 extends along the front-rear direction). One end of the sliding portion 241 close to the cabinet assembly forms a flange 242 extending along its radial direction (specifically, the rear end of the sliding portion 241 forms a flange 242 extending along its radial direction). The flange 242 is used to limit the sliding portion 241. Thus, the sliding portion 241 is prevented from disengaging from the sliding hole 230.
[0044] The contact portion 243 is disposed in the area of the sliding portion 241 close to the cabinet assembly (specifically, the contact portion 243 is disposed at the rear of the sliding portion 241), and is used to contact the switch portion 410. The dimension of the contact portion 243 in the radial direction of the sliding portion 241 is greater than the radius of the sliding portion 241, so that in the production and processing process of the refrigerator 10, the relative positions of the sliding hole 230 and the lamp switch 400 do not need to be very precise to achieve the function of turning the light on and off, thereby improving the production efficiency and production cost of the refrigerator 10.
[0045] A buckle 244 may be formed at one end of the sliding portion 241 away from the cabinet assembly (specifically, a buckle 244 may be formed at the front end of the sliding portion 241), and the sliding rod 240 may further include a rubber portion 245. A card slot is defined in the area of the rubber portion 245 corresponding to the buckle 244 (specifically, a card slot is defined at the rear end of the rubber portion 245).
[0046] And the card slot is used to accommodate the buckle 244 so that the rubber portion 245 is fixed to the front end of the sliding portion 241. The cooperation of the buckle 244 and the card slot makes the structure of the sliding rod 240 more stable. Moreover, the rubber portion 245 can not only prevent the outer door 300 from being damaged, but also reduce noise.
[0047] The inner surface 310 of the outer door may be a plane. The inner surface 310 of the outer door being a plane makes the outer door 300 have a better appearance and is convenient for the production and processing of the outer door 300.
[0048] The refrigerator 10 may further include at least one connecting component 500 and a bottle holder 600. Figure 3 is an exploded view of the inner door 200 and the outer door 300 of the refrigerator 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 4 is an exploded view of the inner shell assembly 330, the connecting component 500 and the bottle holder 600 of the refrigerator 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 is Figure 4 a partial enlarged view of the area B shown.
[0049] The at least one connecting component 500 may be fixed to the inner surface 310 of the outer door and protrude from the inner surface 310 of the outer door. The bottle holder 600 is fixed to the at least one connecting component 500.
[0050] For the existing door body with an inner door and an outer door, generally a door liner is provided on the inner surface of the outer door. Such a door body has a complex structure and low production efficiency. However, the outer door 300 and the connecting component 500 of the present invention can be produced separately and assembled after production, thereby improving the production efficiency.
[0051] The outer door 300 may include a housing 320 and an inner housing assembly 330 located on one side of the housing 320 close to the cabinet assembly and connected to the housing 320 (specifically, the inner housing assembly 330 is located at the rear side of the housing 320 and connected to the housing 320). Dividing the outer door 300 into the housing 320 and the inner housing assembly 330 can facilitate the production of the outer door 300 and improve production efficiency.
[0052] The housing 320 and the inner housing assembly 330 define a foaming space 340, and the foaming space 340 can be used to fill foaming material, thereby enhancing the heat insulation effect of the refrigerator 10. The surface of the inner housing assembly 330 close to the inner door 200 is the inner surface 310 of the outer door.
[0053] In the area of the inner housing assembly 330 corresponding to each connecting component 500, fixing openings are formed, and each connecting component 500 includes a fixing frame 510. The fixing frame 510 has a fixing portion 511 disposed in the foaming space 340 and a protruding portion 512 connected to the fixing portion 511 and protruding out of the corresponding fixing opening. This setting method makes the connecting component 500 more firmly fixed to the outer door 300, thereby making the structure of the refrigerator 10 more stable.
[0054] In the area of the surface of the inner housing assembly 330 close to the foaming space 340 corresponding to the fixing portion 511, a positioning protrusion is formed (not shown in the figure. Specifically, the positioning protrusion can extend into the foaming space 340).
[0055] The fixing portion 511 may include a positioning structure 513, and the positioning structure 513 is adapted to the corresponding positioning protrusion for positioning the fixing portion 511. The structure of this positioning structure 513 and the positioning protrusion facilitates finding the installation position of the fixing frame 510 during the installation of the fixing frame 510, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0056] Each connecting component 500 may further include a retaining frame 520. The retaining frame 520 is fixed to the fixing frame 510, and a fixing protrusion 521 is formed on the outer surface of the retaining frame 520. Setting the connecting component 500 to include the fixing frame 510 and the retaining frame 520 can facilitate the disassembly and maintenance of a part of the structure (the retaining frame 520) of the connecting component 500.
[0057] And in the area of the bottle holder 600 corresponding to the fixing protrusion 521, a fixing groove 610 is formed, and the fixing protrusion 521 is snap-fitted into the corresponding fixing groove 610.
[0058] This method of fixing the bottle holder 600 to the connecting component 500 by the cooperation of the fixing protrusion 521 and the corresponding fixing groove 610 is not only simple in structure and low in cost, but also firmly fixed.
[0059] The inner housing assembly 330 may include a metal plate 331 and an annular plastic part 332.
[0060] The surface of the metal plate 331 close to the inner door 200 is the inner surface 310 of the outer door. The metal plate 331 can be made of stainless steel material to improve the touch feeling and prevent deformation.
[0061] The annular plastic part 332 is fixed to the surface of the metal plate 331 facing away from the inner door 200. The annular plastic part 332 facilitates fixing the inner shell assembly 330 to the outer shell 320.
[0062] And each fixing opening can include a metal plate fixing opening formed in the metal plate 331 and a plastic part fixing opening formed in the annular plastic part 332. The positioning protrusion can be formed on the annular plastic part 332. The annular plastic part 332 is easy to process. Therefore, the positioning protrusion is formed on the annular plastic part 332.
[0063] This embodiment provides a refrigerator 10, which includes a box body assembly 100, an inner door 200, an outer door 300 and a lamp switch 400. The box body assembly 100 defines a storage compartment 110 with a compartment opening.

This refrigerator 10 with an inner door 200 and an outer door 300 can reduce cold leakage. The lamp switch 400 is arranged in the area of the box body assembly 100 corresponding to the sliding rod 240, and has a switch part 410 that can move in the front-rear direction. The switch part 410 is configured to push the sliding rod 240 to protrude from the contact surface 220 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 opens the inner door opening 210, so as to turn on the lamp of the storage compartment 110. This refrigerator 10 only needs one lamp switch 400 to turn on the lamp of the storage compartment 110 when the inner door 200 partially closes the compartment opening and the outer door 300 opens the inner door opening 210, with low cost and simple structure.
[0064] The cabinet assembly 100 may include a cabinet body 120 and a hinge 130. The cabinet body 120 defines a storage compartment 110 having a compartment opening. The hinge 130 is used to pivot the inner door 200 and the outer door 300, and it has a hinge box 131 located above the cabinet body 120.
