Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a refrigerator door lock capable of preventing a child from opening the door. The refrigerator door lock capable of preventing a child from opening the door is particularly suitable for refrigerator doors, and can also be used for cabinet doors, drawers and the like. Background Art
[0002] Preventing children from accidentally hurting themselves is very important for families with young children. Young children are naturally curious and active, and this is also necessary for their physical growth and intellectual development. However, young children do not yet have the ability to identify many dangerous behaviors, especially those under 4 years old. Even if they are accompanied by adults, it is usually impossible to always pay attention to the behavior of young children. Young children often do some unexpected behaviors that may cause accidental self-harm, such as opening cabinet doors, refrigerator doors, drawers, toilet lids and other furniture, touching or accidentally swallowing items that may cause harm to them. It is an effective means to set locks to prevent children from opening furniture where items that may cause harm to children are stored. With the improvement of modern people's requirements for quality of life, this kind of lock that prevents children from opening, as an accessory of modern furniture, in addition to the basic function of preventing children from opening, is also required to be lightweight, beautiful in appearance, easy to install and use, and environmentally friendly because it is not an anti-theft lock.
[0003] The existing locks that prevent children from opening are usually designed with a button for opening the lock. Generally, only one button press is needed to open the lock. For example, Chinese patent document CN 217501348 U discloses a refrigerator lock. When an adult needs to open the refrigerator door, he only needs to press the button in the middle of the lock to unlock it. This does not effectively prevent children from opening the door. If a child randomly presses the lock that can be opened with a single press, it may still be opened unconsciously by the child, which may cause harm to the child. In addition, the existing locks that prevent children from opening also have problems such as not being light enough in structure, not being beautiful enough in appearance, not being convenient to install and use, and not being environmentally friendly.
