[0040] The refrigeration device according to the present application is described below in combination with Figure 1 and Figure 2 The refrigeration device according to the present application is described below in combination with

[0041] According to the embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The refrigeration device according to the present application is described below in combination with

[0042] According to the embodiments of the present application, the food material to be aged or air-dried is placed in the storage compartment 21, and the environmental conditions in the storage compartment 21 are not affected by the outside world. By adjusting the environmental conditions in the storage compartment 21, the environmental conditions of the location where the food material is located can be adjusted.

[0043] The temperature in the storage compartment 21 is adjusted to the freezing point temperature range of the food materials, and the oxygen removal module 4 can perform oxygen removal operation on the gas in the storage compartment 21 under the control of the control element, so that the oxygen content in the storage compartment 21 is maintained within a preset range, and the oxygen content in the storage compartment 21 is adjusted, so that the oxidation of the fat and protein of the food materials will not occur.

[0044] In the early stage of the maturation and drying of the food materials, the fan 5 drives the gas in the storage compartment 21 to flow rapidly under the control of the control element, so that the surface of the food materials is rapidly dried to prevent the breeding of microorganisms. In the middle and late stages of the maturation and drying of the food materials, the fan 5 drives the gas in the storage compartment 21 to flow at a low speed under the control of the control element, so as to avoid the problem of poor taste of the food materials.

[0045] The present application adjusts the temperature in the storage compartment 21 to the freezing point temperature range of the food materials, and then performs oxygen removal operation on the storage compartment 21 by the oxygen removal module 4 to reduce the oxygen content in the storage compartment 21, and drives the gas in the storage compartment 21 to flow by the fan 5 to meet the required air speed of the food materials at different stages. The present application can keep the food materials in a low-oxygen and low-temperature environment at all times, prevent the oxidation of the fat and protein of the food materials, and prevent the food materials from deteriorating in the storage compartment 21, thereby improving the maturation and drying effects of the food materials.

[0046] It can be understood that the early, middle and late stages of the maturation and drying of the food materials can be adaptively adjusted according to the different types and quantities of the food materials.

[0047] For example, the storage shell 2 is a sealed drawer or other structure that can be independent of the refrigeration compartment of the device body 1.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present application, the device body 1 is formed with a refrigeration air duct 11, and the refrigeration device comprises a wind volume adjusting assembly 3 connected with the control element, which is adapted to communicate the refrigeration air duct 11 and the storage compartment 21 to adjust the wind volume of the refrigeration air duct 11 delivered into the storage compartment 21.

[0049] It can be understood that the air volume adjusting assembly 3 is communicated with the refrigeration air duct 11 and the storage chamber 21, and the cold air in the refrigeration air duct 11 can be delivered to the storage chamber 21 through the air volume adjusting assembly 3 to adjust the temperature in the storage chamber 21. The air volume adjusting assembly 3 can adjust the air volume delivered to the storage chamber 21 by the refrigeration air duct 11, that is, when the temperature in the storage chamber 21 is too high, the control member controls the air volume adjusting assembly 3 to increase the cold air delivered to the storage chamber 21, and when the temperature in the storage chamber 21 is too low, the control member controls the air volume adjusting assembly 3 to reduce the cold air delivered to the storage chamber 21, so that the temperature in the storage chamber 21 can be maintained within the freezing point temperature range of the food materials, and the aging and air-drying effects of the food materials are ensured.

[0050] For example, the air volume adjusting assembly 3, the oxygen removal module 4 and the fan 5 are electrically connected with the control member. It should be noted that the air volume adjusting assembly 3, the oxygen removal module 4 and the fan 5 can also be communicatively connected with the control member.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 The oxygen removal module 4 is arranged in the storage chamber 21, and the air inlet of the oxygen removal module 4 is communicated with the storage chamber 21.

[0052] It can be understood that the oxygen removal module 4 located in the storage chamber 21 can directly perform oxygen removal operation on the gas in the storage chamber 21 to reduce the oxygen content of the gas in the storage chamber 21, so that the food materials in the storage chamber 21 are not easy to deteriorate.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the oxygen removal module 4 is arranged between the refrigeration air duct 11 and the storage chamber 21, and the refrigeration air duct 11, the oxygen removal module 4 and the storage chamber 21 are communicated in sequence, and the oxygen removal module 4 is adapted to adjust the oxygen content of the gas delivered to the storage chamber 21 by the refrigeration air duct 11.

[0054] It can be understood that the cold air delivered to the storage chamber 21 by the refrigeration air duct 11 needs to pass through the oxygen removal module 4 first, that is, the oxygen removal module 4 can perform oxygen removal operation on the gas entering the storage chamber 21, so that the gas delivered to the storage chamber 21 is the gas whose oxygen content has been adjusted, which ensures that the oxygen content of the gas delivered to the storage chamber 21 is within the range required for aging and air-drying, and ensures that the gas contacted by the food materials in the storage chamber 21 has a low oxygen content, thereby reducing the time of contact between the food materials and the gas with high oxygen content.

[0055] It can be understood that if the cold air enters the storage compartment 21 and then the oxygen removal operation is performed on the gas in the storage compartment 21, at least part of the food materials will be in direct contact with the cold air with high oxygen content. By arranging the oxygen removal module 4 between the refrigeration air duct 11 and the storage compartment 21, the cold air entering the storage compartment 21 is the gas after the oxygen removal operation, which can effectively avoid the contact between the cold air with high oxygen content and the food materials, can effectively prevent the oxidation of fat and protein of the food materials, and can effectively avoid the deterioration of the food materials.

[0056] In an embodiment of the present application, the oxygen removal module 4 is located between the refrigeration air duct 11 and the air volume adjusting assembly 3, and the refrigeration air duct 11, the oxygen removal module 4, the air volume adjusting assembly 3 and the storage compartment 21 are sequentially communicated.

[0057] For example, the oxygen removal module 4 is arranged between the refrigeration air duct 11 and the air volume adjusting assembly 3, the cold air of the refrigeration air duct 11 is transported to the air volume adjusting assembly 3 after the oxygen removal operation of the oxygen removal module 4, then the air volume adjusting assembly 3 adjusts the air volume of the cold air, and then the cold air enters the storage compartment 21. The present embodiment makes the oxygen content of the cold air transported into the storage compartment 21 meet the requirements, and the air volume of the cold air also meets the requirements, so that the temperature in the storage compartment 21 can be controlled within the freezing point temperature range of the food materials while the oxygen content in the storage compartment 21 is controlled at a low level.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the oxygen removal module 4 is located between the refrigeration air duct 11 and the air volume adjusting assembly 3, and the refrigeration air duct 11, the oxygen removal module 4, the air volume adjusting assembly 3 and the storage compartment 21 are sequentially communicated.

[0059] For example, the oxygen removal module 4 is arranged between the refrigeration air duct 11 and the air volume adjusting assembly 3, the cold air of the refrigeration air duct 11 is transported to the air volume adjusting assembly 3 after the oxygen removal operation of the oxygen removal module 4, then the air volume adjusting assembly 3 adjusts the air volume of the cold air, and then the cold air enters the storage compartment 21. The present embodiment makes the oxygen content of the cold air transported into the storage compartment 21 meet the requirements, and the air volume of the cold air also meets the requirements, so that the temperature in the storage compartment 21 can be controlled within the freezing point temperature range of the food materials while the oxygen content in the storage compartment 21 is controlled at a low level.

[0060] In an embodiment of the present application, the refrigeration device comprises an oxygen concentration detection element arranged in the storage compartment 21, the oxygen concentration detection element is adapted to detect the oxygen concentration in the storage compartment 21, the oxygen concentration detection element is connected with a control element, and the control element can control the oxygen removal module 4 based on the detection data of the oxygen concentration detection element, so that the oxygen concentration in the storage compartment 21 gradually decreases.

[0061] It can be understood that the oxygen concentration detection element detects the oxygen concentration in the storage chamber 21 and transmits the detection data to the control element. When it is detected that the oxygen concentration is too high, the control element can control to increase the working power of the oxygen removal module 4, so that the oxygen removal module 4 speeds up the oxygen removal speed to reduce the oxygen content in the storage chamber 21 to the preset range value. When it is detected that the oxygen concentration is in the preset range value or lower than the preset range value, the control element can control to reduce the working power of the oxygen removal module 4, thereby controlling the working of the oxygen removal module 4 based on the actual oxygen concentration in the storage chamber 21, and improving the intelligent degree of the refrigeration equipment.

[0062] For example, when the food material is dried and matured by using the refrigeration equipment, in the early stage of drying and maturation, a large amount of air is used to quickly dry the food material. At this time, the oxygen content in the storage chamber 21 can be maintained at a certain level, and the oxygen content does not need to be reduced to a low level. In the middle stage of drying and maturation, the oxygen removal efficiency can be appropriately reduced, the oxygen is slowly reduced, and the oxygen content between the fibers of the meat product is reduced, thereby promoting the maturation and flavor substance generation of the meat product. In the later stage of drying and maturation, the oxygen content can be further reduced and maintained at a low level to avoid spoilage of the food material. That is, in the drying and maturation stage of the food material, the control element can control the working of the oxygen removal module 4 according to the detection data of the oxygen concentration detection element, so that the oxygen content in the storage chamber 21 gradually decreases along the time line from the pre-drying and maturation stage to the middle stage of drying and maturation and then to the later stage of drying and maturation.

[0063] For example, the oxygen concentration detection element can be provided with a plurality of oxygen concentration detection elements to comprehensively detect the oxygen concentration in the storage chamber 21.

[0064] For example, the oxygen concentration detection element can be arranged at a position opposite to the oxygen removal module 4. The oxygen concentration detection element is arranged at a position relatively far away from the oxygen removal module 4. The farther the distance from the oxygen removal module 4, the higher the oxygen concentration. That is, the oxygen concentration detection element detects the position with the highest oxygen concentration in the storage chamber 21. Then, the control element controls the working of the oxygen removal module 4 according to the detection data of the oxygen concentration detection element, which can effectively ensure that the oxygen concentration in the storage chamber 21 is lower than the preset range value, and avoid the situation that the oxygen concentration in part of the area is higher than the preset range value.

[0065] In an embodiment of the present application, the air volume adjusting assembly 3 comprises a temperature detecting element arranged in the storage chamber 21, the temperature detecting element is adapted to detect the temperature in the storage chamber 21, and the temperature detecting element is connected to the controller, the controller can control the air volume adjusting assembly 3 based on the detection data of the temperature detecting element to control the temperature in the storage chamber 21 to be in a preset temperature range, and the controller can determine the air volume delivered into the storage chamber 21 based on the air volume adjusting assembly 3 and control the working of the oxygen removing module 4 according to the air volume.

[0066] It can be understood that the temperature detecting element detects the temperature in the storage chamber 21, and the temperature detecting element transmits the detection data to the controller, so that the controller can control the working of the air volume adjusting assembly 3 based on the detection data of the temperature detecting element. When the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element exceeds the freezing point temperature range of the food material, the controller controls the air volume adjusting assembly 3 to increase the air volume of the cold air delivered into the storage chamber 21, so that the temperature of the storage chamber 21 decreases to the freezing point temperature range of the food material. When the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element is in the freezing point temperature range of the food material, the controller can control the air volume adjusting assembly 3 to remain unchanged. When the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element is lower than the freezing point temperature range of the food material, the controller can control the air volume adjusting assembly 3 to decrease the air volume of the cold air delivered into the storage chamber 21.

[0067] It can be understood that when the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element exceeds the freezing point temperature range of the food material, the air volume adjusting assembly 3 increases the air volume of the cold air delivered into the storage chamber 21, which means that the oxygen content in the storage chamber 21 will increase rapidly. The controller can know the air volume delivered into the storage chamber 21 based on the state of the air volume adjusting assembly 3, when the air volume adjusting assembly 3 increases the air volume delivered into the storage chamber 21, the controller synchronously controls to increase the working power of the oxygen removing module 4, so that the oxygen removing module 4 accelerates the oxygen removing operation on the gas in the storage chamber 21, to avoid that the increase of the air volume of the cold air delivered into the storage chamber 21 causes the oxygen content in the storage chamber 21 to exceed the preset range value. When the temperature detected by the temperature detecting element is lower than the freezing point temperature range of the food material, the air volume adjusting assembly 3 decreases the air volume of the cold air delivered into the storage chamber 21, that is, the oxygen concentration content in the storage chamber 21 will decrease due to the influence of the input cold air, and at this time the controller can control to decrease the working power of the oxygen removing module 4. The embodiment can control the air volume adjusting assembly 3 and the oxygen removing module 4 according to the detection data of the temperature detecting element, which improves the intelligent degree of the refrigeration equipment.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present application, the storage shell 2 is provided with an air inlet, the air inlet is communicated with the storage chamber 21, wherein the air volume adjusting assembly 3 comprises an air door arranged at the air inlet, and the air inlet is communicated with the refrigeration air duct 11 through the air door.

[0069] For example, the air door is arranged at the air inlet, so that the refrigeration air duct 11 communicates with the air inlet through the air door, that is, the refrigeration air duct 11 communicates with the storage room 21 through the air door, so that the air door can adjust the air volume of the refrigeration air duct 11 delivered into the storage room 21, so that the temperature in the storage room 21 is maintained within the freezing point temperature range of the food materials.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present application, the storage shell 2 is provided with an air inlet communicating with the storage room 21, wherein the air volume adjusting assembly 3 comprises a gas flow control valve arranged at the air inlet, and the air inlet communicates with the refrigeration air duct 11 through the gas flow control valve.

[0071] For example, the gas flow control valve is arranged at the air inlet, so that the refrigeration air duct 11 communicates with the air inlet through the gas flow control valve, so that the gas flow control valve can adjust the air volume of the refrigeration air duct 11 delivered into the storage room 21, so that the temperature in the storage room 21 is maintained within the freezing point temperature range of the food materials.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The storage shell 2 is provided with an air return 22 communicating with the storage room 21, the air return 22 is arranged opposite to the air inlet, and the temperature detection element is arranged at the air return 22.

[0073] It can be understood that the air return 22 and the air inlet are arranged opposite to each other, which prolongs the path of the cold air flowing from the air inlet into the storage room 21 to the air return 22, so that the cold air can reduce the temperature of the entire storage room 21, so that the temperature of the entire storage room 21 remains the same, effectively avoiding the situation that the temperature of part of the area is higher than that of other areas.

[0074] It can be understood that the temperature detection element is arranged at the air return 22, the temperature of the cold air flowing from the air inlet to the air return 22 may have risen by a certain value, that is, the temperature data detected by the temperature detection element at this time is the higher temperature data in the storage room 21, and then the controller controls the operation of the air volume adjusting assembly 3 based on the detection data of the temperature detection element, so that the temperature at the air return 22 is also maintained within the freezing point temperature range of the food materials, which can effectively avoid the situation that the temperature of part of the area is higher than the freezing point temperature range of the food materials.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present application, the refrigeration device comprises a gas flow rate detection element arranged in the storage compartment 21, the gas flow rate detection element being adapted to detect the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21, and the gas flow rate detection element being connected to the control element, and the control element being capable of controlling the fan 5 based on the detection data of the gas flow rate detection element, so as to control the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 to be a first preset flow rate within a preset time period, and to control the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 to be a second preset flow rate after the preset time period, wherein the first preset flow rate is greater than the second preset flow rate.

[0076] It can be understood that the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 can be detected in real time by the gas flow rate detection element, and the detection data of the gas flow rate detection element is transmitted to the control element, so that the control element can control the working of the fan 5 according to the detection data of the gas flow rate detection element. When the gas flow rate detected by the gas flow rate detection element is lower than the preset flow rate range value, the control element controls to increase the working power of the fan 5, so that the fan 5 can accelerate the flow rate of the gas in the storage compartment 21. When the gas flow rate detected by the gas flow rate detection element is higher than the preset flow rate range value, the control element controls to reduce the working power of the fan 5, so that the flow rate of the gas in the storage compartment 21 is reduced.

[0077] For example, when the food material is dried and matured in the storage compartment, the fan 5 can be controlled based on the detection data of the gas flow rate detection element in the early stage of drying and maturation, so that the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 is maintained at the first preset flow rate, that is, the gas in the storage compartment 21 flows rapidly, which can effectively prevent the spoilage and microbial breeding of the meat with high moisture content. In the middle and late stages of drying and maturation, the fan 5 can be controlled based on the detection data of the gas flow rate detection element, so that the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 is maintained at the second preset flow rate, that is, the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 is reduced. Because the middle and late stages are the maturation and flavor accumulation process of the food material, the gas flow rate in the storage compartment 21 does not need to be too fast.

[0078] In an embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 The fan 5 is arranged adjacent to the air inlet, and the orientation of the air outlet of the fan 5 is the same as that of the air inlet.

[0079] For example, the fan 5 is installed at a position adjacent to the air inlet, and the orientation of the air outlet of the fan 5 is maintained the same as that of the air inlet, that is, the air supply direction of the fan 5 is the same as the inflow direction of the cold air entering the storage compartment 21 through the air inlet, so that the fan 5 can accelerate the flow rate of the cold air, and the situation that the air supply direction of the fan 5 is opposite to the inflow direction of the cold air and the cold air entering the storage compartment 21 is hindered is avoided.

[0081] It can be understood that the food materials can be placed on the carrier 6, and the carrier 6 plays a role of carrying the food materials. By providing a plurality of through holes on the carrier 6, the side of the food materials in contact with the carrier 6 can be in contact with the gas in the storage chamber 21 through the through holes, thereby ensuring the aging and air-drying effect of the food materials.

[0082] For example, the carrier 6 can be connected with the inner wall surface of the storage chamber 21, or can be directly placed in the storage chamber 21.

[0083] In an embodiment of the present application, the inner wall surface of the storage chamber 21 is provided with a plurality of ventilation grooves extending along the arrangement direction of the carrier 6, the ventilation grooves are in communication with the air inlet, and the openings of the ventilation grooves are in communication with the space between the adjacent two carriers 6.

[0084] It can be understood that when two or more carriers 6 are provided, the air can flow between the adjacent two carriers 6 through the ventilation grooves, which can prevent the flow path of the gas from being blocked by the food materials on the carrier 6, avoid the poor flowability of the gas between the adjacent two carriers 6, and ensure that the gas can quickly flow between the adjacent two carriers 6.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present application, a fan 5 is arranged between the adjacent two carriers 6.

[0086] It can be understood that by arranging the fan 5 between the adjacent two carriers 6, the fan 5 can directly drive the gas between the adjacent two carriers 6 to flow, so that the flow rate of the gas on the surface of the food materials on each carrier 6 remains the same, thereby ensuring the aging and air-drying effect of the food materials.

[0087] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present application, but not to limit the present application. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various combinations, modifications or equivalent replacements of the technical solutions of the present application can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and all should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
