[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of refrigerators, in particular to a dynamic storage compartment refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] Refrigerators are common household appliances. They are usually divided into a refrigerator and a freezer, which are mainly used for refrigerating and freezing food respectively. They help people extend the shelf life of food by lowering the internal temperature and slowing down the rate of food spoilage. Some smart refrigerators have recognition functions. Through built-in cameras and artificial intelligence algorithms, they can intelligently identify the type and quantity of ingredients in the refrigerator.

[0003] Although such intelligent recognition function can enable family members to understand the status of the surface of food in the refrigerator, it cannot effectively and accurately understand the quantity, quality, storage location, freshness and other information of the food in the square grid boxes or drawer containers of the refrigerator. When taking food, the food information can only be effectively judged when the food in the refrigerator is in a directly visible level. The food in the inner layer is in an information shielding state due to the obstruction of the outer layer of food, causing family members to distort the information of the inner layer of food, which in turn leads to a large amount of food being lost for a long time, which in turn causes food to expire, deteriorate and rot. This is an important cause of household food waste and an important reason for the low turnover rate of refrigerator containers.

[0025] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Embodiment 1

[0027] As attached Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 4 As shown, the present embodiment provides a dynamic storage compartment refrigerator, including a cabinet 1, the cabinet 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating frame 2, the rotating frame 2 is connected to a storage member, the storage member is used to store food, when the rotating frame 2 rotates, the position of the storage member can be adjusted, so as to facilitate the display of the state of the food stored in the storage member.

[0028] The box body 1 is provided with a accommodating chamber 8, in which a driving motor 9 is fixedly installed, and an output end of the driving motor 9 is fixedly connected to a first bevel gear 10, the first bevel gear 10 is meshed with a second bevel gear 11, and the second bevel gear 11 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 12. When the driving motor 9 works, the second bevel gear 11 is driven to rotate through the first bevel gear 10, thereby driving the rotating rod 12 to rotate.

[0029] The rotating rod 12 is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 2. The rotating rod 12 rotates to drive the rotating frame 2 to rotate. The size of the first bevel gear 10 is smaller than that of the second bevel gear 11, so that the torque can be increased.

[0030] As can be seen from the above, by changing the conventional static square grid box into a combination of a dynamically rotating rotating rack 2 and a storage piece, it is beneficial to electrically and intelligently control the precise movement, stop, display and storage and retrieval of the internal container. Specifically, the first bevel gear 10 is driven to rotate by the driving motor 9, and then the second bevel gear 11 is driven to rotate, and the second bevel gear 11 drives the rotating rod 12 to rotate, and the rotating rod 12 drives the rotating rack 2 to rotate, so that the storage piece moves to the door of the refrigerator, so that the inner layer of food can be displayed within the direct sight of family members and then accurately stored and retrieved;

[0031] The food status of any layer in the refrigerator can be directly observed through video camera, or the purpose of accurately extracting food can be achieved by inputting voice and text information. For example, when the required items are read out by voice, the storage device will immediately move to the door of the refrigerator and prompt the location of the food and items with indicator lights or voice + screen display, so that the food in the inner layer can be displayed within the direct sight of family members and can be accurately accessed;

[0032] By empowering the smart refrigerator with AI, this refrigerator has the following functions: it can remotely control and operate the refrigerator, such as setting the temperature, turning on and off the lights, etc.; it can identify, record and manage the quantity and shelf life of ingredients through cameras or RFID technology, and remind users to buy or eat them in time; based on the stored ingredients, the smart refrigerator can provide dietary suggestions and recipes to help users eat healthily; the smart refrigerator can monitor food freshness, temperature, humidity and other data, and warn users whether the food is expired or needs to be replaced; the smart refrigerator can help users record shopping lists, expenses and remaining amounts, which helps users keep track of household expenses; the refrigerator can be controlled using a smart voice assistant, such as voice ordering, checking food status, etc.; when the refrigerator door is not closed correctly, food is timed out or the temperature is abnormal, the smart refrigerator will automatically issue a prompt and remind family members.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] As attached Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment is basically the same as the previous embodiment, except that the box body 1 is vertically arranged, the storage member includes a storage slot 3 opened on the rotating frame 2, and a storage compartment body 4 is placed in the storage slot 3. The rotating frame 2 rotates to adjust the position of the storage slot 3, and then the storage compartment body 4 is adjusted to the cabinet door of the refrigerator. The storage compartment body 4 is made of transparent material, such as plastic, glass, etc., which is convenient for observing the food stored in the storage compartment body 4. According to needs, the rotating frame 2 can be set in one group, two groups or four groups. In addition to the pull-out method, the storage compartment body 4 can also be set to a buckle type or a flip-up type.

[0035] Specifically, the storage slot 3 is provided with a guide slot 5, and the lower end of the storage compartment body 4 is connected with a slider 6, which slides with the guide slot 5. The storage compartment body 4 can be quickly pulled out or pushed in by sliding the slider 6 along the guide slot 5. A limiting protrusion 7 is provided in the guide slot 5, and the limiting protrusion 7 limits the slider 6 to prevent the storage compartment body 4 from shaking during the rotation of the rotating frame 2.

[0036] Furthermore, the box body 1 is provided with an auxiliary groove 13, and the rotating frame 2 is installed with an auxiliary wheel 14, which rolls in the auxiliary groove 13 to provide support for the rotating frame 2. At the same time, the auxiliary wheel 14 can reduce the friction during the rotation of the rotating frame 2, so that the rotation of the rotating frame 2 is smoother.

[0037] As can be seen from the above, by changing the conventional static square grid box to a dynamically rotating rotating rack 2 in conjunction with the storage compartment body 4, the food status at any level in the refrigerator can be directly observed by video camera, and the technical method of inputting voice and text information can also be adopted to achieve the purpose of accurately extracting food. For example, a command is issued by voice, and the driving motor 9 drives the second bevel gear 11 to rotate through the first bevel gear 10, thereby driving the rotating rod 12 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 12 drives the rotating rack 2 to rotate, so that the storage compartment body 4 immediately runs to the cabinet door of the refrigerator, which is convenient for displaying the inner layer of food within the direct sight range of family members and then accurately accessing it. During the rotation of the rotating rack 2, the auxiliary wheel 14 provides support for the rotating rack 2 and reduces friction, and the limiting protrusion 7 limits the slider 6 to prevent the storage compartment body 4 from shaking during the rotation of the rotating rack 2.

When the receiving groove 15 is turned upward, the box cover 16 is opened to facilitate access and observation of the food in the receiving groove 15 from above. The box cover 16 can be a mesh-shaped, fence-shaped or transparent integral closed box cover to facilitate observation of the food stored in the receiving groove 15. A storage box can also be installed in the receiving groove 15 in a detachable manner, and the storage box is used to replace the receiving groove 15 and connected to the box cover 16.

[0040] As can be seen from the above, the food is placed in the receiving groove 15, and the box cover 16 is connected and fixed to the receiving groove 15 by a buckle to prevent the food in the receiving groove 15 from falling out of the receiving groove 15 when the receiving groove 15 is rotated downward. When the receiving groove 15 is rotated upward, the box cover 16 is opened to facilitate access and observation of the food in the receiving groove 15 from above.
