[0049] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present invention.

[0050] Figures 1 to 10 A refrigerator provided by a first embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0051] Combination Figure 1As shown, the present invention mainly relates to: a refrigerator, comprising a box body 1, wherein the box body 1 defines a storage space and a press chamber 11. It should be noted that the number and structure of the storage space can be set according to actual needs.

[0052] The refrigerator also includes a door body for opening or closing the storage space. The refrigerator of the present invention is preferably a built-in refrigerator, which is used to be embedded in a cabinet or other storage space to save indoor space.

[0053] In the invention, when a user opens the door, the direction facing is defined as the front. The door is installed on the front side of the box body 11.

[0054] The compressor compartment 11 is located at the bottom of the box body 1, and is provided with a compressor 67 and a first fan 41. The first fan 41 is configured to discharge the heat in the compressor compartment 11 in a timely and effective manner to ensure the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator.

[0055] Combination Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the refrigerator includes at least two-stage condensers. The refrigerator includes a first condenser 64 arranged at the bottom of the box body 1 or the back of the box body 1, and a second condenser 65 arranged in the press chamber 11. The multi-stage condenser is arranged to improve the condensation effect of the refrigerator's refrigeration system and improve the space utilization.

[0056] The bottom of the box body 1 is provided with a first air port connected to the inside and outside of the press chamber 11, and the top of the box body 1 is provided with a second air port connected to the inside and outside of the press chamber 11. Among them, one of the first air port and the second air port is set as an air inlet, and the other is set as an air outlet.

[0057] Reference Figure 2 As shown, when the air inlet is set at the bottom of the box body 1 and the air outlet is set at the top of the box body 1, the heat dissipation air path passes through the compressor chamber 11, and the air passes through the bottom of the box body 1, the compressor chamber 11, the back of the box body 1, and the top of the box body 1 in turn, forming a bottom-in and top-out heat dissipation air path. The air is used multiple times to cool the first condenser 64 and the second condenser 65, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the refrigerator refrigeration system.

[0058] When the air inlet is set at the top of the box body 1 and the air outlet is set at the bottom of the box body 1, the heat dissipation air path passes through the compressor chamber 11, and the air passes through the top of the box body 1, the back of the box body 1, the compressor chamber 11, and the bottom of the box body 1 in turn, forming a heat dissipation air path with top in and bottom out. The air is used multiple times to cool the first condenser 64 and the second condenser 65, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the refrigerator refrigeration system.

[0059] Reference Figure 2As shown, further, in the first embodiment of the condenser, the refrigerator includes a three-stage condenser. The arrangement of the three-stage condenser can maximize the use of air on the heat dissipation wind path. The refrigerator also includes a third condenser.

[0060] The first condenser 64 is arranged at the bottom of the box 1, the second condenser 65 is arranged in the compressor chamber 11, and the third condenser 66 is arranged at the back of the box 1. The air passing through the bottom, the compressor chamber 11, and the back on the heat dissipation air path cools down the first condenser 64, the second condenser 65, and the third condenser 66 respectively.

[0061] Furthermore, the box body 1 includes a bottom plate 12, a press chamber back plate 13, a back plate 15 extending upward from the press chamber back plate 13, and a press chamber support plate 14 extending upward obliquely from the front side of the bottom plate 12. The bottom plate 12, the press chamber back plate 13, the back plate 15, and the press chamber support plate 14 are all made of metal materials with thermal conductivity.

[0062] The press chamber support plate 14 includes a support bottom 141 adjacent to the front side of the bottom plate 12, a support inclined portion 142 extending obliquely upward and backward from the support bottom 141, and a support top 143 extending horizontally backward from the support inclined portion 142 to the press chamber back plate 13. In this embodiment, the bottom of the box body 1 includes the bottom plate 12 and the support bottom 141.

[0063] The bottom plate 12 , the press chamber back plate 13 , the support inclined portion 142 and the support top portion 143 together define the press chamber 11 .

[0064] In order to facilitate fixed installation and protect the first condenser 64 , the first condenser 64 is disposed on the inner wall of the support bottom 141 , and the third condenser 66 is disposed on the inner wall of the rear back plate 15 .

[0065] Taking the bottom-in and top-out heat dissipation air path as an example, the air inlet is arranged between the support bottom 141 and the bottom plate 12, or the air inlet is arranged on the bottom plate 12, and the outside air enters through the air inlet at the front bottom of the box body 1, and the air passes through the support bottom 141 in turn. The air will cool down the first condenser 64 by utilizing the thermal conductivity of the material of the support bottom 141. When the air enters the compressor compartment 11, the second condenser 65 is cooled down. When the air goes out of the compressor compartment 11 and flows upward through the back plate 15, the air will cool down the third condenser 66 by utilizing the thermal conductivity of the back plate 15 material, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling and dissipating the first condenser 64, the second condenser 65, and the third condenser 66, so as to improve the heat dissipation efficiency, enhance the heat dissipation effect, and thus improve the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator.

[0066] In a specific implementation of the bottom-in and top-out heat dissipation air path, the box body 1 includes a press chamber back plate 13 and a rear back plate 15 extending upward from the press chamber back plate 13 .

[0067] The air inlet includes a bottom air inlet 161 disposed at the bottom of the housing 1 and connected to the inside and outside of the press chamber 11, and the air outlet includes a top air outlet 162 disposed at the top of the housing 1. Preferably, the top air outlet 162 is disposed forward or obliquely upward. A back air outlet 133 is formed on the press chamber back plate 13 to connect the inside and outside of the press chamber 11. The refrigerator forms a heat dissipation air path that passes through the bottom air inlet 161, the back air outlet 133, and the top air outlet 162 in sequence.

[0068] Preferably, the bottom air inlet 161 is disposed between the support bottom 141 and the bottom plate 12, or the bottom air inlet 161 is disposed on the bottom plate 12. The bottom-in and top-out heat dissipation air path for the first condenser 64, the second condenser 65, and the third condenser 66 has been specifically described above and will not be described in detail here.

[0069] When the first fan 41 is running, the air outside the compressor compartment 11 enters through the bottom air inlet 161, is sucked in by the first fan 41, and then passes through the first fan 41 and is discharged upward along the outer side of the compressor compartment back plate 13, and then is discharged into the environment through the top air outlet 162, so as to form a circulating heat dissipation mode of entering from the bottom, passing through the back, and then passing through the top of the box body 1, so as to improve the heat dissipation efficiency and ultimately improve the refrigeration efficiency of the refrigerator.

[0070] The first fan 41 has an air intake and an air exhaust. For the implementation of the bottom-in and top-out heat dissipation air path, the air intake is arranged at the front of the first fan 41, and the air exhaust is arranged at the top of the first fan 41. Preferably, the top of the first fan 41 is exposed to the outside of the compressor chamber back plate 13 through the back air outlet 133, so as to improve the air intake capacity of the first fan 41.

[0071] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in the specific implementation of the top-in and bottom-out heat dissipation air path, the box body 1 includes a press chamber back plate 13 and a rear back plate 15 extending upward from the press chamber back plate 13. The air inlet includes a top air inlet 171 arranged at the top of the box body 1, and the air outlet includes a bottom air outlet 172 arranged at the bottom of the box body 1 and communicating with the inside and outside of the press chamber 11. Preferably, the top air inlet 171 is arranged backward.

[0072] A back air inlet is formed on the compressor compartment back plate 13 to communicate with the inside and outside of the compressor compartment 11. The refrigerator forms a heat dissipation air path that passes through the top air inlet 171, the back air inlet, and the bottom air outlet 172 in sequence.

[0073] Preferably, the bottom air outlet 172 is disposed between the supporting bottom 141 and the bottom plate 12 , or the bottom air outlet 172 is disposed on the bottom plate 12 .

[0074] Driven by the first fan 41, the outside air passes through the top air inlet 171 on the top of the box body 1, and then passes through the back plate 15. The air uses the thermal conductivity of the material of the back plate 15 to cool the third condenser 66. Then, the air enters the compressor compartment 11 through the back air inlet to cool the second condenser 65. When the air flows forward through the bottom air outlet 172, the air passes through the supporting bottom 141. The air uses the thermal conductivity of the material of the supporting bottom 141 to cool the first condenser 64, thereby achieving the purpose of cooling and dissipating the third condenser 66, the second condenser 65, and the first condenser 64 respectively, so as to improve the heat dissipation efficiency, enhance the heat dissipation effect, and thus improve the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator.

[0075] The first fan 41 has an air intake and an air exhaust. For the implementation of the top-in and bottom-out heat dissipation air path, the air intake is arranged at the top of the first fan 41, and the air exhaust is arranged at the front of the first fan 41. Preferably, the top of the first fan 41 is exposed to the outside of the compressor chamber back plate 13 through the back air intake.

[0076] Furthermore, vertically extending windshield strips 151 are respectively provided at the left and right edges of the outer wall of the back plate 15, which can effectively allow wind to pass through the back to enhance heat exchange. Among them, an air guide duct is defined between the two windshield strips 151. The airflow can flow evenly along the air guide duct, which plays a role in guiding the air flow and makes the heat dissipation uniform. Therefore, the heat dissipation efficiency of the refrigerator is improved, so as to improve the refrigeration efficiency.

[0077] Furthermore, the first fan 41 is arranged on the inner wall of the back plate 13 of the press chamber. The refrigerator further comprises a fan bracket for fixing the first fan 41 on the inner wall of the back plate 13 of the press chamber.

[0078] The first fan 41 is fixed to the compressor chamber back plate 13 via a fan bracket. Preferably, the top of the first fan 41 is exposed to the outside of the compressor chamber back plate 13 via a back air outlet 133 or a back air inlet.

[0079] In one embodiment of the second condenser 65, the refrigerator further includes an evaporating dish 24 having a receiving cavity 242. The second condenser 65 extends upward from the receiving cavity 242.

[0080] A portion of the second condenser 65 is disposed in the accommodating chamber 242 , and another portion of the second condenser 65 is disposed outside the accommodating chamber 242 .

[0081] Furthermore, the refrigerator further includes an evaporator disposed in the housing 1, a refrigeration chamber for accommodating the evaporator, and a defrost drain pipe connecting the refrigeration chamber and the accommodating chamber 242. The defrost drain pipe guides the defrost water generated when the evaporator is defrosted into the accommodating chamber 242. The defrost water in the evaporating dish 24 can cool the pipeline of the second condenser 65.

[0082] Furthermore, the first condenser 64 is configured as a steel tube condenser or a microchannel condenser.

[0083] Combination Figure 5 As shown, further, the first fan 41 is disposed between the compressor 67 and the second condenser 65. In this embodiment, the compressor 67 and the first fan 41 are spaced apart from each other along the left-right direction of the bottom of the housing 1.

[0084] When air is sucked into the compressor chamber 11 under the drive of the first fan 41, the compressor 67 and the second condenser 65 can be cooled at the same time. A plurality of first air outlets are provided, and each group of first air outlets includes a plurality of through holes. The plurality of through holes are arranged at intervals along the left and right directions of the bottom of the box body 1, and the front side of the compressor 67 and the front side of the second condenser 65 are provided with through holes, which can increase the heat dissipation efficiency in the compressor chamber 11.

[0085] Furthermore, the first fan 41 is preferably a centrifugal fan, which has strong wind resistance and is suitable for use in long air ducts. The air is accelerated by a high-speed rotating impeller, and then decelerated and changed in direction to be discharged from the exhaust port. This has the advantage of good heat dissipation effect.

[0086] Secondly, the first fan 41 can be an axial flow fan or a cross flow fan.

[0087] In another implementation manner of the second condenser 65 , the refrigerator further includes a supporting structure disposed on the top of the accommodating cavity 242 .

[0088] The second condenser 65 includes multiple layers of condensation pipelines arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, at least one layer of condensation pipelines is arranged in the accommodating chamber 242, and at least one layer of condensation pipelines is arranged above the supporting structure. The defrost drain pipe guides the defrost water generated when the evaporator is defrosted into the accommodating chamber 242, thereby cooling the condensation pipelines in the accommodating chamber 242. The condensation pipelines above the supporting structure are cooled by the airflow inside and outside the compressor chamber 11. Through such an arrangement, on the basis of the original structure, by adding a supporting structure on the top of the evaporating dish 24 and designing related structures on the supporting structure, the condensation pipelines can be arranged in multiple layers, making full use of the space of the compressor chamber 11. It has the advantages of compact structure, reasonable layout and high space utilization.

[0089] refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, an embodiment of a multi-layer condensation pipeline includes at least three layers. The condensation pipeline includes a first layer of condensation pipeline 61 arranged in the accommodating cavity 242, a second layer of condensation pipeline 62 and a third layer of condensation pipeline 63 respectively arranged above the support structure. The refrigerator also includes a fixing bracket 7 fixed to the top of the support structure. The fixing bracket 7 is used to fix and install the condensation pipeline arranged above the support structure.

[0090] The second layer condensation pipeline 62 and the third layer condensation pipeline 63 are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the fixed bracket 7. The second layer condensation pipeline 62 is arranged directly above the third layer condensation pipeline 63 through the fixed bracket 7. Thus, the space above and below the support structure does not need to add extra space in the press chamber 11 for the arrangement of the multi-layer condensation pipelines.

[0091] Furthermore, the fixing bracket 7 is integrally formed, and includes a plurality of vertical plates 71 spaced apart along the length direction of the supporting structure and arranged above the supporting structure, and a fixing plate 73 fixing the vertical plates 71 to the top of the supporting structure. The vertical plates 71 are extended along the width direction of the supporting structure. The length direction refers to the left-right direction. The width direction refers to the front-back direction.

[0092] Furthermore, a plurality of penetrating upper fixing holes 711 are arranged at intervals on the top of the vertical plate 71 along the extension direction of the vertical plate 71 , and the top of the upper fixing hole 711 has an upper installation opening, and the second layer condensation pipeline 62 is installed in the upper fixing hole 711 through the upper installation opening.

[0093] At least part of the second layer condensation pipeline 62 is extended along the length of the support structure. The second layer condensation pipeline 62 includes a horizontal pipeline portion extending along the length of the support structure and an arc pipeline portion connecting two adjacent horizontal pipeline portions. The length of the horizontal pipeline portion is much greater than the length of the arc pipeline portion.

[0094] refer to Figure 6 As shown, a fixing method of the third layer condensation pipe 63, the bottom of the vertical plate 71 is provided with a plurality of penetrating lower fixing holes 712 at intervals along the extending direction of the vertical plate 71, the bottom of the lower fixing hole 712 has a lower mounting opening, and the third layer condensation pipe 63 is mounted on the lower fixing hole 712 through the lower mounting opening. The structure of the lower fixing hole 712 is symmetrically arranged with the upper fixing hole 711.

[0095] At least part of the third-layer condensation pipeline 63 is extended along the length of the support structure. The structure of the third-layer condensation pipeline 63 is the same as that of the second-layer condensation pipeline 62.

[0096] Furthermore, the vertical plate 71 is provided with a plurality of long air guide ports 72 equally spaced in the vertical direction, and the long air guide ports 72 are extended in the width direction of the support structure. The long air guide ports 72 play a role in guiding the airflow of the compressor chamber 11. The number of the long air guide ports 72 is set to be multiple, and the plurality of long air guide ports 72 are spaced in the height direction of the support structure, so that the second layer condensation pipeline 62 and the third layer condensation pipeline 63 are evenly cooled.

[0097] refer to Figure 8 As shown, another way of fixing the third-layer condensing pipeline 63 is that the refrigerator also includes a fixing seat unit arranged on the top of the evaporating dish 24, and the fixing seat unit includes a plurality of elastic fixing members 25 arranged at intervals and used for the third-layer condensing pipeline 63 to pass through and install, and a holder 26 for installing the elastic fixing members 25, and the elastic fixing members 25 include elastic material.

[0098] Further, one end of the card seat 26 is connected to the top of the support structure, and the other end of the card seat 26 is a free end. An installation space for installing the elastic fixing member 25 is defined between the card seat 26 and the support structure. The elastic fixing member 25 is installed in the installation space by lifting the free end of the card seat 26 upward. The elastic fixing member 25 can be made of sponge or foam. There are many implementation methods of the card seat 26. For example, the card seat 26 is set as a rectangular frame structure to define an installation space for installing the elastic fixing member 25 between the card seat 26 and the support structure.
