[0054] Example 1
[0055] This invention provides a storage shelf for a refrigerator, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 13 As shown, the refrigerator includes a partition structure 10 disposed within the refrigerator compartment. The partition structure 10 divides the refrigerator compartment into different temperature zones, and includes:
[0056] Shelf 11, which is installed in the refrigerator liner 20, is used to place items;
[0057] Display assembly 12 is disposed at the front of shelf 11;
[0058] Light source 13 is located at the lower part of shelf 11.
[0059] In this embodiment, a shelf 11 is provided to support and place items; a display screen assembly 12 is provided at the front of the shelf 11 to display information on the surface of the refrigerator, providing information services such as advertisements, weather forecasts, time, and the quantity of stored items, offering users a diverse smart experience; a light source 13 is provided at the bottom of the shelf 11 to illuminate the storage space located below the partition structure 10, and also to allow users to quickly locate the position of the partition structure 10. Furthermore, the position of the display screen assembly 12 clearly shows the location of the partition structure 10, making it easier for users to recognize the positions of the two different refrigerated areas separated by the partition structure 10.
[0060] In one embodiment, such as Figures 2 to 5 The display assembly 12 includes:
[0061] Display screen 121 is used to display information;
[0062] Mounting member 122 is used to fix the display screen 121 to the shelf 11 and together with the shelf 11 forms a cavity for accommodating the display screen 121. Specifically, mounting member 122 is provided to quickly install the display screen 121 and to protect the display screen 121.
[0063] Furthermore, the mounting component 122 includes:
[0064] The bracket 1221 includes a panel 12211 and a mounting portion 12212 disposed inside the panel 12211; the mounting portion 12212 is used to fix to the shelf 11.
[0065] Support member 1222 is fixed to the upper surface of mounting part 12212;
[0066] A wooden board 1223 has one end resting against the top surface of the panel 12211, and the other end forming the upper surface structure of the partition structure 10 together with the wooden partition 111 of the shelf 11. Specifically, the mounting component 122 is provided with a bracket 1221, and the panel 1221 is provided with the bracket 12211 to form the display interface and / or operation interface of the display screen assembly 12, which is simple and compact. A mounting part 12212 is provided on the inner side of the panel 12211, which is fixed to the shelf 11, making the assembly structure simple. The wooden board 1223 is provided to form the wooden upper surface structure of the partition structure 10 together with the wooden partition 111, which improves the neatness of the upper surface of the partition structure 10, covers the assembly structure of the bracket 1221 and the shelf 11, and the wooden upper surface structure can be used to store wine bottles to improve the quality of wine bottle storage. Because the wooden board 1223 has low elasticity, if it is directly assembled with the bracket 1221 to form the mounting part 122, the assembly gap between the wooden board 1223 and the top surface of the panel 12211 is difficult to control. By setting a support member 1222 between the wooden board 1223 and the mounting part 12212 of the bracket 1221, the support member 1222 supports the wooden board 1223 and eliminates the assembly gap between the wooden board 1223 and the top surface of the panel 12211. In addition, the support member 1222 reduces the number of holes in the wooden board 1223 while making the wooden board 1223 more secure.
[0067] Furthermore, the wooden board 1223 abuts against the support member 1222 to ensure a secure installation.
[0068] In one embodiment, the bracket 1221 is a plastic component with a certain degree of elasticity to facilitate seamless assembly with the wooden board 1223. Furthermore, the bracket 1221 is a transparent component with a light-transmitting front surface to form the panel 12211 for displaying information from the display screen assembly 12.
[0069] In one embodiment, the support member 1222 is a sheet metal part or an aluminum alloy part, which has a certain strength to firmly support the wooden board 1223.
[0070] In one embodiment, two first blind holes 12231 are provided at both ends of the lower surface of the wooden board 1223 to be connected to the support member 1222 by fasteners, and the first blind holes 12231 do not affect the neatness and aesthetics of the upper surface of the wooden board 1223.
[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 , Figure 6As shown, the lower surface of the wooden board 1223 is provided with several protrusions 12232 to abut against the upper surface of the support member 1222. This ensures the contact force between the lower surface of the wooden board 1223 and the upper surface of the support member 1222, while reducing the contact area between the lower surface of the wooden board 1223 and the upper surface of the support member 1222, thereby reducing the precision requirements for processing the two surfaces and reducing the processing difficulty.
[0072] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the inner side of the panel 12211 is provided with a receiving groove 12213 for accommodating the display screen 121. Furthermore, the outer surfaces of the display screen 121 are engaged in the receiving groove 12213 to limit the shaking of the display screen 121.
[0073] Furthermore, a stop 12214 is provided on the inner side of the panel 12211 to abut against the back of the display screen 121 to prevent the display screen 121 from detaching from the receiving groove 12213.
[0074] Furthermore, the stop portion 12214 is disposed on the side wall of the receiving groove 12213 to save the longitudinal space occupied by the stop portion 12214.
[0075] In one embodiment, the display assembly 12 is snapped onto the shelf 11, allowing for easy assembly and detachment. In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the mounting part 12212 is the first buckle, and there are two, three or more of them. The two first buckles form a relative buckling force to engage with the shelf 11.
[0076] Furthermore, the mounting part 12212 is disposed on the side wall of the receiving groove 12213 to save the longitudinal space it occupies.
[0077] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the support member 1222 has a plurality of first abutting portions 12221 protruding on the side facing the shelf 11, which are used to abut against the upper surface of the shelf 11 in order to stably support the wooden board 1223.
[0078] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a foam structure 112 is sandwiched inside the shelf 11 to improve the vertical load-bearing capacity of the shelf 11 and improve the thermal insulation performance of the shelf 11.
[0079] In one embodiment, the display screen 121 is a touch screen, used for touch control to adjust the temperature of different refrigeration zones on both sides of the partition structure 10. Specifically, when the two different refrigeration zones separated by the partition structure 10 are used to store non-fixed items, the temperature in the corresponding refrigeration zone can be adjusted via touch control through the display screen 121 to accommodate different stored items and expand the storage range.
[0080] Furthermore, the display screen 121 includes several selection keys to match the temperature conditions of different stored items. Specifically, the selection keys can be distinguished by different numbers or letters, or directly by the icons of the stored items. Taking the upper refrigerated area of the partition structure 10 as an example, when storing different types of wine in this area, since different wines have different storage temperature requirements—for example, champagne requires 7-12℃, red wine 10-15℃, brandy 7-10℃, as well as beer, fruit wine, etc.—several selection keys are matched to champagne, red wine, brandy, beer, and fruit wine respectively, allowing the selection of different types of wine to configure the temperature control range of the upper storage area of the partition structure 10.
[0081] Furthermore, the display screen 121 also includes an autonomous temperature setting key, which is used to input a specific temperature value to adjust the corresponding refrigeration temperature, thereby expanding the range of refrigerated storage.
[0082] Furthermore, to simplify the circuit design and control system, when the storage temperature ranges of different stored items matched by different selection keys overlap, the overlapping temperature is set as the current refrigeration temperature. When multiple types of products are stored in the upper storage area of the partition structure 10, the temperature control range is configured to either a lower temperature range or an overlapping temperature range to ensure the simultaneous storage of multiple types of wine.
[0083] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, shelf 11 includes:
[0084] Wooden partition 111 is used to form the upper surface structure of shelf 11;
[0085] Mounting bracket 113, which is provided with a first groove 1131;
[0086] A cover plate 114 is mounted on the mounting bracket 113 and covers the opening of the first groove 1131 to form the clamping space of the foam structure 112. Specifically, a wooden partition 111 is provided for placing items. The wood grain provides users with a natural wood experience and is moisture-proof and pressure-resistant, making it suitable for storing special items such as wine bottles. The foam structure 112 is clamped by the mounting bracket 113 and the cover plate 114, simplifying assembly, reducing the need for opening holes or fixing structures on the foam structure 112, simplifying its structure, and allowing for easy disassembly and replacement of the foam structure 112.
[0087] In one embodiment, the display assembly 12 is snapped onto the shelf 11, making it easy to assemble and detach, facilitating replacement or maintenance of the display assembly 12. In a specific embodiment, such as Figure 4 , Figure 8 As shown, bracket 1221 is fastened to mounting bracket 113. Specifically, mounting bracket 113 is provided with a first slot 1135 for fastening with a first buckle.
[0088] In one embodiment, the cover plate 114 is fastened to the mounting bracket 113, allowing for easy removal and removal. Specifically, as shown... Figure 7 , Figure 9 As shown, the mounting bracket 113 is provided with a plurality of second slots 1136, and the cover plate 114 is provided with a plurality of second buckles 1141. The second slots 1136 and the second buckles 1141 are engaged to fasten the cover plate 114 to the mounting bracket 113.
[0089] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the light source 13 is installed on the mounting bracket 113, with the first groove 1131 of the mounting bracket 113 facing upwards, the cover plate 114 is located above the mounting bracket 113, and the wooden partition 111 is located above the cover plate 114.
[0090] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the cover plate 114 is provided with several through holes 1142, and the lower surface of the wooden partition 111 is provided with several second blind holes 1111. Fasteners are passed through the matching through holes 1142 and second blind holes 1111 in sequence to strengthen the connection between the cover plate 114 and the wooden partition 111.
[0091] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 10 As shown, the wooden partition 111 includes a first board 1112 and a second board 1113 from top to bottom. The front end of the second board 1113 extends out of the first board 1112 to support one end of the wooden board 1223.
[0092] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 9 As shown, the upper surface of the cover plate 114 is provided with a second groove 1143 to abut against the surrounding surface of the second plate 1113, so as to restrict the lateral swaying of the wooden partition 111 and at the same time play a role in positioning and pre-installing the wooden partition 111.
[0093] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , Figure 10As shown, the left and right side walls of the second groove 1143 extend outward to form a support portion 1144; the left and right side walls of the first plate 1112 extend out of the second plate 1113 to abut against the upper surface of the support portion 1144 to cover the assembly gap between the left and right side walls of the second plate 1113 and the second groove 1143.
[0094] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 10 As shown, the front end of the second plate 1113 is provided with several notches 11131 to allow the lower surface of the first abutting part 12221 of the support member 1222 to abut against the upper surface of the second groove 1143; the end of the first abutting part 12221 abuts against the side wall of the notch 11131.
[0095] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 9 As shown, a boss 1145 is provided on the upper surface of the end of the cover plate 114 away from the display screen assembly 12; the front surface of the wooden partition 111 abuts against the rear surface of the wooden board 1223, and the rear surface of the wooden partition 111 abuts against the front surface of the boss 1145 to limit the back-and-forth movement of the wooden partition 111.
[0096] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, both side walls of the shelf 11 are provided with a first recess 1132 and a first mounting hole 1133; the first mounting hole 1133 is fixed to the inner box 20 by fasteners; the outline of the first recess 1132 and the inner box 20 together form a cavity for filling with foaming agent. Specifically, the inner box 20 is provided with a second mounting hole 21. Fasteners are passed through the second mounting hole 21 and the first mounting hole 1133 for pre-installation, and then foaming agent is filled into the cavity formed by the outline of the first recess 1132 and the inner box 20. The foaming serves to fix and seal between the side walls of the shelf 11 and the inner box 20. In a specific embodiment, the first recess 1132 and the first mounting hole 1133 are provided on the mounting bracket 113, and the partition structure 10 is installed in the inner box 20 through the mounting bracket 113.
[0097] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 13As shown, both sides of the shelf 11 are provided with elastic limiting structures 1137; both sides of the refrigerator liner 20 are recessed inward, forming two concave portions, namely a first concave portion 22 and a second concave portion 23, with the first concave portion 22 located between the refrigerator door and the second concave portion 23; the back contours of the first concave portion 22 and the second concave portion 23 are opposite to each other, so as to form a first cavity 24 on the inner surface of the refrigerator liner 20; when the partition structure 10 is assembled, when the limiting structure 1137 moves to the back contour of the second concave portion 23, the limiting structure 1137... The partition structure 10 is compressed by the back contour of the second concave portion 23 and retracts under its elastic force, allowing the partition structure 10 to continue advancing into the box liner 20 until the limiting structure 1137 moves to the first concave cavity 24. The pressed limiting structure 1137 then rebounds and continues to move into the box liner 20 until it abuts against the back contour of the first concave portion 22. The limiting structure 1137, resisted by the back contour of the first concave portion 22, causes the partition structure 10 to stop moving, indicating that the assembly is in place. This provides auxiliary positioning during assembly. In one specific embodiment, the limiting structure 1137 is mounted on the mounting bracket 113.
[0098] Furthermore, each of the two side walls of the shelf 11 is provided with a second recess 1138, and a limiting structure 1137 is provided on one side wall of the second recess 1138. When the limiting structure 1137 is pressed by the back of the first recess 22, the limiting structure 1137 is retracted into the second recess 1138.
[0099] Furthermore, the limiting structure 1137 extends outward at an angle toward the opening of the box liner 20 so that the back contour of the second recess 23 can move along the surface of the limiting structure 1137 to smoothly press the limiting structure 1137 and continue to move.
[0100] Furthermore, the limiting structure 1137 bends inward at one end toward the opening of the box liner 20 to form a second abutment 11371, which abuts against the back contour of the first recess 22 to stop the inward pushing movement of the partition structure 10 and achieve an auxiliary positioning function.
[0101] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 13 As shown, the upper surface of the wooden partition 111 is provided with a plurality of third recesses 1114 to accommodate the bottom contour of the items and restrict the movement of the items. Furthermore, the plurality of third recesses 1114 extend along the side wall of the box liner 20 to facilitate the user in placing items.
[0102] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 As shown, the light source 13 includes:
[0103] Lamp panel 131, used to emit light;
[0104] The lamp holder 132 is used to fix the lamp panel 131; the lamp holder 132 is fixed to the shelf 11;
[0105] The lamp holder 132 has a wire channel at the front for connecting the wires of the lamp board 131 and the wires of the display screen assembly 12. Specifically, the wires of the lamp board 131 pass through the front of the lamp holder 132 to facilitate connection with the wires of the display screen assembly 12, thereby shortening the length of the wires of the lamp board 131 and making the wiring neater.
[0106] In one embodiment, such as Figure 11 As shown, the lamp holder 132 has a split structure to form a frame structure for clamping the lamp panel 131, which is easy to assemble. Furthermore, the lamp holder 132 has a third slot 1321 on its inner side to engage the lamp panel 131 around its perimeter.
[0107] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, the shelf 11 has a second recess 1134 at its bottom, and the outer surface of one side wall of the lamp holder 132 and the second recess 1134 together form a wiring channel 134; the lamp source 13 has a sealing cover 133 to seal the wiring channel 134. Specifically, the wiring channel 134 formed by the outer surface of one side wall of the lamp holder 132 and the second recess 1134 is simple in structure and reduces slotting. The wires of the lamp board 131 and the display screen assembly 12 are connected through the wiring channel 134, and the wiring is neat. The sealing cover 133 improves the neatness and aesthetics of the lower surface of the partition structure 10.
