The heat dissipation module 3 is located at the top of the cabinet body 1 and communicates with the outside air for cooling. The cooling module 4 is located below the heat dissipation module 3, and the heat dissipation module 3 and cooling module 4 are connected to allow heat transfer between them via thermal conduction. After heat transfer using this method, the cooling module 4 can be sealed to effectively prevent humid outside air from entering the cabinet body 1 via the heat dissipation module 3 and cooling module 4. The condensate collection module 5 is located below the cooling module 4 to receive the condensate obtained after cooling by the cooling module 4, preventing the condensate from flowing back into the cabinet body 1 via the air duct module 5. The air duct module 6 is located below the cooling module 4 and is used to guide the humid and hot air inside the cabinet body 1 to the cooling module 4, and guide the dry and cool air obtained from cooling by the cooling module 4 back into the cabinet body 1, thereby regulating the temperature inside the cabinet body 1. Based on the above technical solution, the cabinet 1 can be effectively cooled and kept dry, thereby meeting the storage needs of specific items.

[0029] It should be noted that the mirror cabinet referred to in this invention refers to a cabinet placed in the bathroom, which can be a traditional mirror cabinet set under a mirror or a bathroom cabinet.

The heat dissipation module 3 is fixed above the mounting plate 13, and the cooling module 4 and the air duct module 5 are fixed below the mounting plate 13. Furthermore, the width of the mounting plate 13 is smaller than the width of the top surface of the outer shell 11, thus forming an evaporation air duct 14 between the outer shell 11 and the back panel 12 on the outer side of the back panel 12. The condensate collection module 4 is located below the evaporation air duct 14. The evaporation air duct 14 guides the hot air obtained from the heat exchange of the radiator 31 to the condensate collection module 5, thereby accelerating the evaporation rate of the condensate.

Specifically, the cooler 41 is a high-density toothed radiator, i.e., a structure with multiple heat sinks connected to the base plate. One side of the cooling fin 42 contacts the base plate of the radiator 31, and the other side contacts the base plate of the cooler 41, so that heat conduction between the radiator 31 and the cooler 41 can be achieved through the cooling fin 42. The thickness of the cooling fin 42 is the same as the thickness of the fixing plate 12. Through this arrangement, the cooling module 4 can be sealed to prevent moisture from the outside air from entering the interior of the cabinet 1.

The cooler 41 is located in the cooling zone 612, and the blower fan 62 is located in the guide zone 613. The hot air in the cabinet 1 is first guided to the cooler 41 through the cooling zone 612, cooled by the cooler 41, and then flows to the guide zone 613, and finally returns to the cabinet 1 after being guided by the guide zone 613. In addition, the bottom of the air duct 61 is also equipped with a humid and hot air inlet 614, which is used to output the humid and hot air in the cabinet 1.

[0037] It is understood that the number of cooling zones 612, air guide zones 613, and exhaust fans 62 can be one or more. Specifically, in this embodiment, one cooling zone 612 can be set, and one air guide zone 613 can be set on each side. An exhaust fan 62 can be set in each air guide zone 613. With the above arrangement, the cold air output from the two air guide zones 613 can be output at the same height position of the cabinet 1 to improve cooling efficiency. Alternatively, the cold air output from the two air guide zones 613 can be output at different height positions in the cabinet to achieve different temperatures at different positions.

In yet another embodiment, multiple cooling zones 612 and multiple air guide zones 613 can be set, and the two can be arranged alternately. An exhaust fan 62 can be set in each air guide zone 613. With the above arrangement, the cold air generated by different air guide zones 613 can be delivered to different positions in the cabinet.

[0038] The working principle of the bathroom cabinet with refrigeration function in this embodiment is as follows:

[0039] Moist, hot air rises from cabinet 1, is guided by air duct 61, enters cooling zone 612, and is cooled by refrigerator 41 located in cooling zone 612 to obtain dry, cool air. The dry, cool air returns to cabinet 1 under the action of fan 62, cooling cabinet 1. The condensate generated during the cooling process of refrigerator 41 falls into water tray 51 and flows into evaporator 53 through water outlet 52. The heat generated during the cooling process of refrigerator 41 is conducted to radiator 31 by cooling fins 42. The cooling fan 32 above radiator 31 introduces outside air, cooling radiator 31 while expelling the hot air obtained by heat exchange in radiator 31 to evaporation air duct 14, and then the hot air flows into evaporator 53, accelerating the evaporation rate of condensate in evaporator 53.
