Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of refrigeration equipment technology, and particularly relates to a semi-embedded refrigerator with a door. Background Technology

[0002] Existing refrigeration equipment, such as refrigerators, typically consists of two main parts: the cabinet and the door. The cabinet includes an outer shell and an inner liner. An insulation layer is usually filled between the outer shell and the inner liner to keep the inner liner warm and prevent cold air from the inner liner from being transferred to the environment. The door is used to shield the inner liner and keep it warm; the two are insulated by a door seal.

[0003] In existing technologies, the need for an insulation layer in the door increases its overall thickness, significantly impacting the product's appearance and resulting in a poor visual experience for users. Furthermore, the exposed door seal creates a large gap between the door and the refrigerator, making the product unsightly. Additionally, current refrigerators typically use a built-in installation method. The thicker door further increases the overall thickness of the refrigerator, requiring a larger installation area and placing specific demands on the door design. These factors contribute to inconveniences during installation and maintenance. Moreover, the door seal, usually located at the door edge, easily accumulates dust and dirt, affecting its sealing performance. Furthermore, the exposed door seal at the door edge is susceptible to deformation under external forces, which can also compromise the refrigerator's sealing performance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art and provide a semi-embedded refrigerator with a door. By semi-embedding the refrigerator door inside the refrigerator liner, the overall thickness of the refrigerator is reduced, which is beneficial to the actual installation and use of the refrigerator. At the same time, by setting the door seal on the refrigerator liner, the sealing performance of the refrigerator can be guaranteed.

The front side of the connecting piece near the sliding block is bent forward to form a mounting piece. A second threaded hole is provided on the mounting piece. A second bolt is threaded into the second threaded hole. One end of the second bolt passing through the second threaded hole is in close contact with the storage frame.

[0025] Furthermore, the storage frame includes a front baffle and a rear partition, the two ends of the front baffle are bent backward to form side baffles, and the rear partition is located between the two side baffles;

[0026] A sliding groove is provided in the center of the rear side of the side baffle, and the limiting block is slidably disposed in the sliding groove;

This solves the appearance defect of excessively thick exposed doors. The door seal can also be hidden between the door and the refrigerator liner as the door is semi-embedded, thereby reducing the gap between the door and the refrigerator from the front, optimizing the product appearance, and facilitating the installation of the refrigerator.

[0033] 2. This invention achieves a semi-embedded design for the refrigerator door by embedding the hinge inside the refrigerator body, that is, by connecting the two connecting ends of the hinge to the hinge slot and the mounting groove respectively.

[0034] 3. This invention, by placing the door seal on the refrigerator liner, changes the traditional structural design where the door seal is placed on the refrigerator door, thus ensuring the refrigerator's sealing performance.

[0035] 4. This invention provides a door shelf on the refrigerator door for placing items. The shelf holds items compactly and can fix the items in place, thereby preventing the items inside the shelf from shaking during the opening and closing of the refrigerator door, effectively protecting the items inside the shelf.
