However, as the user uses the refrigerator for a longer time, dust particles in the air will be adsorbed to the condenser by the fan along with the air. As the dust increases, the ventilation effect of the condenser becomes worse and worse, which will lead to a decrease in the condensation effect of the condenser, thereby increasing the energy consumption of the entire refrigerator.

Among them, the upper part of the defrost water storage tank is connected to the refrigerated water receiving tray and the frozen water receiving tray, and the bottom is connected to the ball valve. The other end of the ball valve is connected to the sprinkler, and a large number of nozzles are regularly distributed at the bottom of the sprinkler. A water level sensor is provided on the inner wall of the defrost water storage tank. The water level sensor and the ball valve are both connected to the valve controller. The valve controller receives the feedback signal of the water level sensor to control the ball valve to supply water to the sprinkler. The device has the functions of collecting and storing defrost water to clean the condenser, etc., which can remove dust and dissipate heat for the condenser, effectively reduce the attenuation of the heat exchange effect caused by dust deposited on the condenser, and thus reduce the energy consumption of the system.
[0004] In the process of implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, it is found that there are at least the following problems in the related art:
[0005] The dust removal device of the related technology uses a valve controller to receive the feedback signal of the water level sensor to control the ball valve to supply water to the sprinkler, thereby using defrost water to clean the condenser, remove condenser dust, and reduce the attenuation of the heat exchange effect. However, the dust removal device uses a system to control the dust removal water volume and time interval. Once any problem occurs in any link of the valve controller, water level sensor and ball valve, the entire dust removal device will not work properly.
[0006] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present application, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

[0043] The term "and / or" is a description of the association relationship between objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B means: A or B, or, A and B.
[0044] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be combined with each other.
[0045] At present, the condenser and fan in the refrigerator can effectively improve the heat dissipation effect. However, after the condenser has been used for a long time, the fan will absorb the dust in the air or in the compressor cabin to the surface of the condenser. The long-term accumulation will seriously hinder the air flow of the condenser, resulting in poor condensation effect and ultimately increase the energy consumption of the refrigerator.
[0046] Related technology discloses a device that utilizes refrigerator defrost water. The upper part of the defrost water storage tank is connected to the refrigerated water receiving tray and the frozen water receiving tray, and the bottom is connected to a ball valve. The other end of the ball valve is connected to a sprinkler, and a large number of nozzles are regularly distributed at the bottom of the sprinkler. A water level sensor is provided on the inner wall of the defrost water storage tank. The water level sensor and the ball valve are both connected to a valve controller. The valve controller receives the feedback signal of the water level sensor to control the ball valve to supply water to the sprinkler. The device has the functions of collecting and storing defrost water to clean the condenser, etc., can remove dust and dissipate heat for the condenser, effectively reduce the attenuation of the heat exchange effect caused by dust deposited on the condenser, and thus reduce the energy consumption of the system.
[0047] The dust removal device of the related technology uses a valve controller to receive the feedback signal of the water level sensor to control the ball valve to supply water to the sprinkler, thereby using defrost water to clean the condenser, remove condenser dust, and reduce the attenuation of the heat exchange effect. However, the dust removal device uses a system to control the dust removal water volume and time interval. Once any problem occurs in any link of the valve controller, water level sensor and ball valve, the entire dust removal device will not work properly.
[0048] The refrigerator includes a refrigeration system, which includes a compressor, a condenser 1 and an evaporator connected to each other. The main function of the condenser 1 is to dissipate the heat in the refrigerator to the outside to keep the temperature of the refrigerator and the freezer stable. When the temperature in the refrigerator rises, the refrigerant is compressed in the condenser 1 and becomes a high-temperature and high-pressure gas. Subsequently, the heat is dissipated through heat conduction between the condenser 1 and the surrounding air, causing the refrigerant to cool and condense into liquid, and then flow back to the evaporator to continue the cycle.
[0049] Combination Figure 1a-1c , Figure 2a-2b , Figure 3a-3bAs shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a condenser assembly for a refrigerator, including a condenser 1, a connecting vessel 2 and a drainage device 3.
[0050] The communicating vessel 2 includes a first chamber 21 and a second chamber 22, and the communicating vessel 2 is provided with a connecting piece 23, which connects the first chamber 21 and the second chamber 22 so that the water in the first chamber 21 flows into the second chamber 22 after reaching a preset water volume; the drainage device 3 is arranged between the communicating vessel 2 and the condenser 1, and is provided with a water inlet 31 and a drain outlet 32, the water inlet 31 is connected to the second chamber 22, and the drain outlet 32 faces the condenser 1.
[0051] The defrost water flows into the communicating vessel 2 for storage. When the water volume in the first chamber 21 reaches a preset water volume, the defrost water flows from the first chamber 21 into the second chamber 22 through the connecting piece 23, and then enters the drainage device 3 from the water inlet 31, and is then discharged to the condenser 1 from the drainage port 32. The setting of the communicating vessel 2 allows sufficient defrost water to be stored in the first chamber 21 before the condenser 1 is cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the condenser 1.
[0052] Alternatively, if Figure 1b As shown, one end of the connecting piece 23 is located in the first chamber 21 , and the other end passes through the first chamber 21 and is connected to the second chamber 22 .
[0053] Since the amount of water generated each time defrosting is different, a small amount of defrost water is not effective for flushing the condenser 1, so the defrost water generated each time is stored in the communicating vessel 2. When the defrost water level reaches the specified level, that is, when the water level in the first chamber 21 reaches the preset water level, the communicating vessel 2 forms a negative pressure under the action of the gravity of the defrost water, and the defrost water flows from the first chamber 21 into the second chamber 22 through the connecting piece 23.
[0054] It can be understood that the preset water volume and the connecting member 23 pass through the first chamber 21 (such as Figure 1b When the height at which the connecting piece 23 passes through the first chamber 21 is higher, the preset water volume is larger, so that more defrost water flows into the second chamber 22 and flows into the drainage device 3, so that the condenser 1 can be cleaned more cleanly; when the height at which the connecting piece 2 passes through the first chamber 21 is lower, the preset water volume is smaller, and the condenser 1 can be cleaned when there is less dust on the surface of the condenser 1, thereby saving the use of defrost water.
[0055] It can be understood that the preset water volume is also related to the volume of the communicating vessel 2. When the connecting piece 23 passes through the first chamber 21 from the same position, the larger the radius of the communicating vessel 2, the larger the preset water volume. Similarly, the smaller the radius of the communicating vessel 2, the smaller the preset water volume.
[0056] The preset water volume can be adjusted according to actual conditions such as the size of the condenser 1, the density of the condensation tube 11 and the fins 13, and the amount of dust on the surface of the condenser 1, by adjusting the height of the connecting piece 23 passing through the first chamber 21 or the volume of the connecting piece 2 to adjust the time interval for dust removal of the condenser 1.
[0057] Alternatively, if Figure 1b As shown, a partition 24 is provided between the first chamber 21 and the second chamber 22 , and a gap exists between the connecting piece 23 and the partition 24 .
[0058] The connecting piece 23 is located at one end of the first chamber 21 (such as Figure 1b The connecting piece 23 is located at the first chamber 21 and the connecting piece 23 is located at the first chamber 21. For example, as shown in FIG. 1 , the one end of the connecting piece 23 located in the first chamber 21 is opened toward the partition 24. In this way, as the amount of water in the first chamber 21 increases, the water in the first chamber 21 can first contact the one end of the connecting piece 23 located in the first chamber 21. When the amount of water in the first chamber 21 reaches the point where the connecting piece 23 passes through the first chamber 21, the water in the first chamber 21 flows to the second chamber 22 through the connecting piece 23.
[0059] When the water volume in the communicating vessel 2 reaches the preset water volume, the communicating vessel 2 forms a negative pressure under the action of the gravity of the defrost water, and the defrost water flows from the first chamber 21 through the communicating piece 23 into the second chamber 22. The communicating piece 23 is located in the first chamber 21 and one end opening is arranged toward the partition 24, so that the defrost water close to the partition 24 at the bottom of the first chamber 21 can also flow into the second chamber 22 along the communicating piece 23 under the action of pressure. There is a gap between the opening at one end of the communicating piece 23 and the partition 24, which ensures that the defrost water can flow into the communicating piece 23 smoothly without obstruction.
[0060] Optionally, the second chamber 22 is located below the first chamber 21 .
[0061] When the second chamber 22 is located below the first chamber 21, when the water volume in the first chamber 21 reaches the preset water volume, the negative pressure formed by the defrost water in the first chamber 21 under the action of its own gravity is greater, and the defrost water can more easily flow into the second chamber 22 to ensure the subsequent defrost water flow and cleaning operations.
[0062] like Figure 2a As shown, the condenser assembly further includes a water receiving pan 5, which is located below the evaporator and is used to receive defrost water from the evaporator. A water outlet is provided at the bottom of the water receiving pan 5, which is connected to the first chamber 21 and is used to receive defrost water and flow into the first chamber 21. It can be understood that the water receiving pan 5 can also receive condensed water from the evaporator.
[0063] The defrost water generated by the evaporator flows into the first chamber 21. When the water level in the first chamber 21 reaches the point E where the connecting piece 23 passes through the first chamber 21, the defrost water starts to flow into the second chamber 22, so that the air pressure in the first chamber 21 decreases. There is a gap between the first chamber 21 and the water receiving tray 5. The first chamber 21 is connected to the outside through the gap or the water outlet. As the air pressure in the first chamber 21 decreases, the air pressure in the first chamber 21 is less than the atmospheric pressure. The outside atmospheric pressure presses the water in the first chamber 21 into the connecting piece 23, and the water continues to flow into the second chamber 22. When the connecting piece 23 is located at one end of the first chamber 21 and leaves the liquid surface, the defrost water stops flowing.
[0064] Optionally, the drain port 32 is provided on the bottom wall of the drain device 3 , and along the direction close to the drain port 32 , the bottom wall of the drain device 3 is inclined downward.
[0065] After the defrost water flows from the first chamber 21 into the second chamber 22 along the connecting piece 23, it flows into the drainage device 3 through the water inlet 31. The bottom wall of the drainage device 3 is inclined downward in the direction close to the drainage port 32, so that the defrost water can flow to the drainage port 32 more quickly, so as to flow to the condenser 1, thereby increasing the water flow speed.
[0066] Alternatively, if Figure 2b As shown, the condenser 1 includes a condenser tube 11 and a fin 13. The condenser tube 11 includes a plurality of condenser sections 12 that are relatively arranged, and the plurality of condenser sections 12 are interconnected. The fin 13 is arranged between two adjacent condenser sections 12. In particular, along the flow direction of water in the condenser 1, the condenser tube 11 and / or the fin 13 are inclined downward.
[0067] The fins 13 are arranged along the width direction of the condensation section 11 ( Figure 1b The condensing section 12 extends in the left and right directions and is composed of a plurality of units with V-shaped cross-sections connected end to end and is located between two adjacent condensing sections 12.
[0068] In the related art, the condenser 1 and the dust removal device are arranged relative to each other, and only the dust on the surface of the condenser 1 can be cleaned, but the dust inside the condenser 1 cannot be cleaned. Along the flow direction of water in the condenser 1, the condenser tube 11 is tilted downward or the fin 13 is tilted downward or both the condenser tube 11 and the fin 13 are tilted downward, so that when the defrost water flows to the condenser 1, it can flow along the condensation section 12 and the fin 13 under the action of its own gravity, and the dust on the condenser tube 11 and the fin 13 inside the condenser 1 is also cleaned, thereby improving the cleaning effect.
[0069] Alternatively, if Figure 1c and Figure 3bAs shown, multiple condensation sections 12 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom, the drain port 32 is arranged above the condenser 1 and on one side of the condenser 1, and the positive projection of the drain port 32 on each condensation section 12 at least partially overlaps with the corresponding condensation section 12.
[0070] The defrost water flows from the drain port 32 of the drain device 3 to the condenser 1. The drain port 32 is arranged above the condenser 1 and at one side of the condenser 1, so that when the defrost water flows down, it can flow in from one side of the condenser 1 and flow along the width direction of the condensation section 12, and flow as much as possible to the condenser 1 to avoid waste of defrost water. The orthographic projection of the drain port 32 on each condensation section 12 at least partially overlaps with the corresponding condensation section 12, or the orthographic projection of the drain port 32 on each condensation section 12 completely overlaps with the corresponding condensation section 12, so that the defrost water flowing down from the drain port 32 can flow to each condensation section 12, so that each condensation section 12 can be cleaned by the defrost water.
[0071] Alternatively, if Figure 1c As shown, the horizontal distance between the condensation section 12 located at the lower layer and the drain outlet 32 of the two adjacent condensation sections 12 is smaller than the horizontal distance between the condensation section 12 located at the upper layer and the drain outlet 32 .
[0072] like Figure 1c The horizontal distance L1 between the lower condensation section 12 and the drain outlet 32 of the two adjacent condensation sections 12 is smaller than the horizontal distance L2 between the upper condensation section 12 and the drain outlet 32 .
[0073] That is, the width of the condensation section 12 located at the lower layer of the two adjacent condensation sections 12 is greater than the width of the condensation section 12 located at the upper layer, and the edge of the condensation section 12 located at the lower layer facing the drain outlet 32 extends out of the edge of the condensation section 12 located at the upper layer facing the drain outlet 32, so that the condensation section 12 located at the lower layer will not be blocked by the condensation section 12 located at the upper layer, ensuring that the condensation section 12 located at the lower layer can receive the defrost water discharged from the drain outlet 32.
[0074] Optionally, an edge of the lower condensation segment 12 of two adjacent condensation segments 12 facing away from the drain outlet 32 extends out of an edge of the upper condensation segment 12 facing away from the drain outlet 32 along the water flow direction.
[0075] The condenser 1 assembly further includes an evaporating dish 6, which is located below the condenser 1 and can receive water after cleaning the condenser.
[0076] Such an arrangement ensures that when the defrost water flows out after cleaning the condenser tube 11 and the fin 13, the defrost water flowing out of the condensation section 12 located on the upper layer in the two adjacent condensation sections 12 can flow to the condensation section 12 located on the lower layer, and so on. The condensation section 12 located on the bottom layer discharges the cleaned defrost water into the evaporating dish 6. This prevents the defrost water flowing out of the condensation section 12 located on the upper layer from flowing directly into the evaporating dish 6, thereby avoiding unnecessary noise.
[0077] Alternatively, if Figure 2a As shown, the condenser assembly further includes a fan assembly 4 , which is disposed opposite to the condenser 1 and is used to drive air to flow through the condenser 1 to dissipate heat from the condenser 1 .
[0078] The flow direction of the air driven by the fan assembly 4 is the same as the flow direction of the water in the condenser 1 .
[0079] The defrost water flows from the drain port 32 to each condensation section 12 of the condenser 1 to clean each condensation section 12 and the fin 13. The flow direction of the air driven by the fan assembly 4 is the same as the water flow direction of the condenser 1. The fan assembly 4 blows toward the condenser 1 to provide power for the flow of the defrost water and improve the cleaning effect.
