[0026] This embodiment provides a storage device 10 , which includes a box body 100 , a drawer 200 and two slide rail assemblies 300 . Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a storage device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 2 is an assembly diagram of a drawer 200 and a slide rail assembly 300 of a storage device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 3 yes Figure 2 An exploded view of the structure shown; Figure 4 yes Figure 3 A schematic partial enlarged view of area A is shown; Figure 5 yes Figure 2 a side view of the structure shown; Figure 6 yes Figure 5 A schematic partial enlarged view of area B is shown.

[0027] The front side of the box body 100 is open. The drawer 200 is arranged in the box body 100 so as to be pushed and pulled forward and backward. The drawer 200 includes a drawer body 210 and a drawer door 220 detachably mounted on the front side of the drawer body 210 .

[0028] Each slide rail assembly 300 includes a fixed rail 310 fixed to the inner wall of the box body 100 and a sliding rail 320 that can slide forward and backward relative to the fixed rail 310. The drawer body 210 is installed on the sliding rail 320 to achieve forward and backward pushing and pulling. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the two slide rail assemblies 300 are located on both sides of the inner wall of the box body 100, that is, one fixed rail 310 is fixed to one side of the inner wall of the box body 100, and the other fixed rail 310 is fixed to the other side of the inner wall of the box body 100.

[0029] The outer surfaces of the two lateral side walls 211 of the drawer body 210 respectively have at least one elastic preload applying portion 230, which abuts against the corresponding sliding rail 320 and is used to apply an elastic force to the sliding rail 320 in a direction away from the drawer body 210 so that the drawer body 210 and the sliding rail 320 are tightly connected.

[0030] In the prior art storage device, the fixed rail and the sliding rail of the slide rail assembly need to be designed with a necessary gap, so it is easy to shake. However, the storage device 10 of this embodiment applies a lateral outward elastic force to the two sliding rails 320, so that they fit more closely with the fixed rail 310, so that the drawer 200 will not shake left and right.

[0031] The elastic preload force applying portion 230 may be a metal spring, one end of which is fixed to the drawer body 210 and the other end of which is against the sliding rail 320. The metal spring has the advantages of being easy to process and having a good elastic effect. Specifically, the metal spring may be made of 65 manganese material, which belongs to carbon spring steel and has a high strength. Since 65 manganese is well known to those skilled in the art, it will not be described in detail here. In other embodiments, the clamping protrusion 214 may also be made of other metal materials.

[0032] In some embodiments, the front end of the sliding rail 320 is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the drawer door 220. In the drawer 200 with the drawer door 220, the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 are installed later and are not integral parts. Moreover, the drawer 200 has a drawer door 220, which is heavy. When pulling, only the drawer door 220 is stressed, which can easily cause the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 to become loose, and the connection between the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 becomes loose. The present invention is aware of this, and therefore connects the drawer door 220 with the sliding rail 320, so that a part of the pulling force is transferred to the drawer body 210 through the sliding rail 320, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the drawer body 210 and the drawer door 220 of the storage device 10.

[0033] The front end of the sliding rail 320 may be provided with a plate-shaped connecting structure 330, and the front end surface of the connecting structure 330 abuts against the rear surface of the drawer door 220. This arrangement makes the contact area between the sliding rail 320 and the drawer door 220 larger, thereby enhancing the connection effect between the sliding rail 320 and the drawer door 220.

[0034] The storage device 10 may further include a clamping member 400 and at least one clamping hook 500 . The clamping member 400 is disposed on the front surface of the front end plate 212 of the drawer body 210 , and forms a clamping groove 410 with the front end plate 212 .

[0035] The at least one hook 500 is disposed on a region of the rear surface of the drawer door 220 corresponding to the engaging groove 410 , and is engaged and fixed with the engaging groove 410 .

[0036] By the engagement between the engaging member 400 and the at least one hook 500 , the connection between the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 is made more stable, and the occurrence of misalignment between the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 is reduced.

[0037] The clamping member 400 includes a first clamping plate 420 and a second clamping plate 430. The first clamping plate 420 extends forward and laterally from the front surface of the front plate 212, and the second clamping plate 430 extends upward or downward from the front end of the first clamping plate 420 (wherein the embodiment of extending upward is not shown in the figure).

[0038] The clamping member 400 has a simple structure, low cost and a stable clamping effect.

[0039] The at least one hook 500 is a plurality of hooks 500 arranged in the transverse direction, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the door body 220 and the drawer body 210 .

[0040] The clamping member 400 can be integrally formed with the front end plate 212 of the drawer body 210, thereby reducing the assembly process of the clamping member 400 and the front end plate 212. The at least one hook 500 can be integrally formed with the rear end plate of the drawer door 220, thereby reducing the assembly process of the hook 500 and the drawer door 220 to improve production efficiency.

[0041] The sliding rail 320 may include a sliding portion 321 and a connecting portion 322. The sliding portion 321 can slide forward and backward relative to the fixed rail 310. The connecting portion 322 is fixedly connected to the sliding portion 321, and a connecting structure 330 is provided at the front end of the connecting portion 322. The sliding rail 320 is divided into the sliding portion 321 that can slide forward and backward relative to the fixed rail 310 and the connecting portion 322 that has the connecting structure 330 provided at the front end, so that the sliding rail 320 is easy to process and maintain.

[0042] The connection part 322 is provided with a slot 325 for accommodating the corresponding elastic preload force applying part 230, and the elastic preload force applying part 230 abuts against the sliding part 321 through the corresponding slot 325. The cooperation between the elastic preload force applying part 230 and the slot 325 makes the connection between the drawer body 210 and the sliding rail 320 tighter.

[0043] The area corresponding to the connecting portion 322 and the sliding portion 321 forms a connecting portion slot 323, and the area corresponding to the sliding portion 321 and the connecting portion slot 323 forms a sliding portion buckle 324 disposed in the connecting portion slot 323. Through the cooperation between the connecting portion slot 323 and the sliding portion buckle 324, the connection between the connecting portion 322 and the sliding portion 321 is more tightly connected.

[0044] The storage device 10 may further include a fixing member 600, which fixes the fixing rail 310 to the side wall of the inner wall of the box body 100. Since a gap is reserved between the side wall 211 of the drawer body 210 and the inner wall of the box body 100, fixing the fixing rail 310 to the side wall of the inner wall of the box body 100 can improve space utilization.

[0045] The storage device 10 of this embodiment includes a box body 100, a drawer 200 and two slide rail assemblies 300. The front side of the box body 100 is open. The drawer 200 can be arranged in the box body 100 in a forward and backward push-pull manner, and includes a drawer body 210 and a drawer door 220 detachably mounted on the front side of the drawer body 210. Each slide rail assembly 300 includes a fixed rail 310 fixed to the inner wall of the box body 100 and a sliding rail 320 that can slide forward and backward relative to the fixed rail 310, and the drawer body 210 is mounted on the sliding rail 320 to achieve forward and backward push-pull. And the outer surfaces of the two lateral side walls 211 of the drawer body 210 respectively have at least one elastic preload force applying portion 230, and the elastic preload force applying portion 230 abuts against the corresponding sliding rail 320, and is used to apply an elastic force to the sliding rail 320 in a direction away from the drawer body 210, so that the drawer body 210 is tightly connected with the sliding rail 320. By applying a lateral outward elastic force to the two sliding rails 320 , they are made to fit more closely with the fixed rails 310 , so that the drawer 200 will not shake left and right.

[0046] The front end of the sliding rail 320 is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the drawer door 220. In the drawer 200 with the drawer door 220, the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 are installed later and are not integral parts. Moreover, this drawer 200 has a drawer door 220, which makes the drawer 200 itself heavier. If only the drawer door 220 is subjected to force when pulling, it is easy to cause the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 to become loose, and the connection between the drawer door 220 and the drawer body 210 is loose. The drawer door 220 is connected to the sliding rail 320, so that part of the pulling force is transferred to the drawer body 210 through the sliding rail 320, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the drawer body 210 and the drawer door 220 of the storage device 10.

[0047] In some embodiments, the storage device 10 may further include a refrigeration system (not shown). The refrigeration system may be disposed in the box 100 and configured to provide cold air to the box 100. Such a storage device 10 with a refrigeration system may also be generally referred to as a refrigerator, for example, a refrigerator having at least a refrigeration compartment and a freezer compartment. The refrigeration system may be a common compression refrigeration system or a semiconductor refrigeration system, etc., which provides cold air to the box 100 by, for example, direct cooling and / or air cooling, so that the box 100 has a desired storage temperature. Since such refrigeration systems themselves are well known and easily implemented by those skilled in the art, in order not to cover up and obscure the invention of the present application, the present application does not elaborate on the refrigeration system itself.

[0048] At this point, those skilled in the art should recognize that, although multiple exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications that conform to the principles of the present invention can still be directly determined or derived based on the content disclosed in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be understood and recognized as covering all these other variations or modifications.
