[0031] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. However, this embodiment does not limit the present invention, and any changes in structure, method, or function made by those of ordinary skill in the art based on this embodiment are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
[0032] Spatial relative position terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", etc. used herein are for the purpose of facilitating description of the relationship between one feature and another as shown in the drawings. It can be understood that depending on the placement position of the product, the spatial relative position terms may be intended to include different orientations other than those shown in the figures, and should not be construed as a limitation on the claims. In addition, the descriptive term "horizontal" used herein is not completely equivalent to being perpendicular to the direction of gravity, and a certain angle of inclination is allowed.
[0033] Such as Figure 2-3As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a refrigerator 100, which includes a box body 40, a first inner liner 10, a second inner liner 20, and a third inner liner 30 located inside the box body 40. The second inner liner 20 and the third inner liner 30 are located on the same side of the first inner liner 10 in the lateral direction and are arranged along the up and down direction, where the second inner liner 20 is located above the third inner liner 30. The first inner liner 10 forms a first compartment 11 of the refrigerator 100, the second inner liner 20 forms a second compartment 21 of the refrigerator 100, and the third inner liner 30 forms a third compartment 31 of the refrigerator 100. In this embodiment, the first compartment 11 is a freezer compartment, the second compartment 21 is a refrigerating compartment, and the third compartment 31 is a variable temperature compartment. In other embodiments, the second compartment 21 can also be set as a variable temperature compartment, and the third compartment 31 can be set as a refrigerating compartment.
[0034] Continue to cooperate with reference to Figure 4-7 As shown in the figure, the first compartment 11 is partitioned into a cooling channel 111 and a first storage space 112 located in front of the cooling channel 111. The refrigerator 100 further includes a supply air duct 50, a return air duct 60, a fan 12 and an evaporator (not shown in the figure) provided in the cooling channel 111. The evaporator can cool the air around it to form cold air. When the fan 12 rotates, it can promote the flow of cold air. The cooling channel 111 and the first storage space 112 are connected, and the cold air can flow into the first storage space 112 for refrigeration. The cold air can also flow through the supply air duct 50 to the second compartment 21 and the third compartment 31 to refrigerate the second compartment 21 and the third compartment 31. After passing through the second compartment 21 and the third compartment 31, the cold air can return to the cooling channel 111 through the return air duct 60 to form an air path circulation.
[0035] In this embodiment, the supply air duct 50 includes a first supply air part 51 connecting the second compartment 21 and the third compartment 31, and a second supply air part 52 connecting the first supply air part 51 and the cooling channel 111. The supply air duct 50 generally has a tee structure. The cold air in the cooling channel 111 first flows through the second supply air part 52 to the first supply air part 51, and then flows into the second compartment 21 and the third compartment 31 respectively through the first supply air part 51.
[0036] The return air duct 60 includes a first return air part 61 connecting the third compartment 31 and the cooling channel 111, and a second return air part 62 connecting the second compartment 21 and the first return air part 61. It can be seen that, similar to the supply air duct 50, the return air duct 60 also generally has a tee structure. The cold air in the third compartment 31 returns to the cooling channel 111 through the first return air part 61, and the cold air in the second compartment 21 first flows through the second return air part 62 to the first return air part 61, and then returns to the cooling channel 111 through the first return air part 61.
[0037] In other embodiments, the second return air part 62 can also be arranged to communicate with the second compartment 21 and the cooling channel 111. At this time, the first return air part 61 and the second return air part 62 are two separate components, and the cold air in the second compartment 21 directly returns to the cooling channel 111 through the second return air part 62.
[0038] In this embodiment, an air outlet 13 is provided on the side wall of the first inner container 10 close to the second inner container 20 in the lateral direction. First air inlets 22 and second air inlets 32 are respectively provided on the side walls of the second inner container 20 and the third inner container 30 close to each other in the up-down direction. The air outlet 13 is directly communicated with the cooling channel 111. The first air inlet 22 is located on the second inner container 20, and the second air inlet 32 is located on the third inner container 30. The first air supply part 51 communicates with the second compartment 21 and the third compartment 31 through the first air inlet 22 and the second air inlet 32 respectively, and the second air supply part 52 communicates with the cooling channel 111 through the air outlet 13. There are intervals between the second inner container 20 and the third inner container 30 and the first inner container 10 in the lateral direction, and there are intervals between the second inner container 20 and the third inner container 30 in the up-down direction. With the above arrangement, the air supply duct 50 can be arranged in the foaming space formed by the intervals between the first inner container 10, the second inner container 20 and the third inner container 30. The foaming space is generally in the shape of a side T. When the refrigerator 100 is manufactured, foaming materials will be filled inside. Arranging the air supply duct 50 here can reduce the occupation of the space inside the box body 40 by the air supply duct 50.
[0039] The air supply duct 50 further includes a first edge wrapping 53 connected to both ends of the first air supply part 51 and one end of the second air supply part 52 far from the first air supply part 51. The three first edge wrappings 53 are respectively attached to the outer side walls of the first inner container 10, the second inner container 20 and the third inner container 30, which can prevent the foaming material from overflowing into the first compartment 11, the second compartment 21, the third compartment 31 and the air supply duct 50.
[0040] Similarly, the return air duct 60 further includes a second edge wrapping 66 connected to both ends of the first return air part 61 and one end of the second return air part 62 far from the first return air part 61. The three second edge wrappings 66 are respectively attached to the outer side walls of the first inner container 10, the second inner container 20 and the third inner container 30, which can prevent the foaming material from overflowing into the first compartment 11, the second compartment 21, the third compartment 31 and the return air duct 60.
[0041] Such as Figure 4 、 8As shown in FIG. 10, the refrigerator 100 further includes a first cover plate 15 disposed in the first compartment 11 and extending in the vertical direction. Specifically, the first cover plate 15 is disposed at the rear side of the first compartment 11 and divides the first compartment 11 into the cooling channel 111 and the first storage space 112. The evaporator is located below the cooling channel 111, and the blower 12 is located above the evaporator and close to the evaporator. Thus, the blower 12 is generally located in the middle of the first compartment 11 in the vertical direction. The air outlet 13 is close to the blower 12, and the blower 12 blows air into the second air supply part 52 through the air outlet 13.
[0042] The first cover plate 15 includes an upper cover plate portion 151 located above the blower 12 and a lower cover plate portion 152 located below the upper cover plate portion 151. The upper cover plate portion 151 is disposed more rearward than the lower cover plate portion 152. With such a design, while the cooling channel 111 can accommodate the blower 12 and the evaporator, more capacity can be saved for the first storage space 112 in the first compartment 11.
[0043] A plurality of channel air outlets 153 communicating the first storage space 112 and the cooling channel 111 are formed at the front side of the first cover plate 15, and a channel air return opening 154 communicating the first storage space 112 and the cooling channel 111 is formed between the bottom of the first cover plate 15 and the first inner container 10. When the blower 12 rotates, the cold air in the cooling channel 111 can be transported from the channel air outlets 153 to the first storage space 112 for refrigeration. After the cold air flows through the first storage space 112, it returns to the cooling channel 111 from the channel air return opening 154 to form an air path circulation. The plurality of channel air outlets 153 are located above the blower 12. A first deflector 17 cooperating with the blower 12 is further disposed in the cooling channel 111. The first deflector 17 and the first cover plate 15 cooperate to form a deflector cavity 171. The cold air in the cooling channel 111 can effectively flow upward through the deflector cavity 171 under the drive of the blower 12, and thus flows out from the plurality of channel air outlets 153 located above the blower 12.
[0044] In this embodiment, the first cover plate 15 is of a split design and may include an upper cover body and a lower cover body arranged in the vertical direction. The upper cover body is generally located in front of and above the blower 12, and the lower cover body is generally located in front of the evaporator. It can be conceived that the upper cover body includes the above-mentioned upper cover plate portion 151 and a part of the lower cover plate portion 152. In other embodiments, the first cover plate 15 may also be of an integral design.
[0045] As Figure 5 、 11As shown in FIG. 12, the refrigerator 100 further includes a first air damper assembly 24 and a second air damper assembly 34. The first air damper assembly 24 is disposed at a position in the second compartment 21 near the first air inlet 22. The opening and closing of the first air damper can make the first air supply part 51 and the second compartment 21 communicate with each other in a switchable manner, so as to control the air supply from the first air supply part 51 to the second compartment 21 and regulate the temperature in the second compartment 21.
[0046] Specifically, the refrigerator 100 further includes a second cover plate 25 disposed at the rear side of the second compartment 21 and an air plate 26 disposed between the second cover plate 25 and the second inner liner 20. A first air supply channel 27 is formed on the air plate 26. The first air supply channel 27 includes a main channel 271 extending in the up and down direction and a plurality of channel branches 272 extending from the main channel 271 to both sides in the horizontal direction. The plurality of channel branches 272 are arranged in the up and down direction. The front side of the second cover plate 25 is a second storage space 29. One end of the channel branch 272 far from the main channel 271 communicates with the second storage space 29. The first air damper assembly 24 is disposed at the bottom of the main channel 271. The cold air flowing out of the first air damper assembly 24 can uniformly flow to various parts of the second storage space 29 through the plurality of channel branches 272 for refrigeration. The structure formed by the second cover plate 25 and the air plate 26 is flat. Compared with the convex air duct in the prior art, it can save volume and increase the usable area of the upper shelf in the second storage space 29.
[0047] The second air damper assembly 34 is disposed at a position in the third compartment 31 near the second air inlet 32. The opening and closing of the second air damper can make the first air supply part 51 and the third compartment 31 communicate with each other in a switchable manner, so as to control the air supply from the first air supply part 51 to the third compartment 31 and regulate the temperature in the third compartment 31.
[0048] Specifically, the refrigerator 100 further includes an air duct assembly 35 disposed at the top of the third compartment 31. Except for the space occupied by the air duct assembly 35 in the third compartment 31, the rest is a third storage space 38. A second air supply channel 351 is provided in the air duct assembly 35. The second air supply channel 351 communicates with the third storage space 38. The second air damper assembly 34 is disposed in the second air supply channel 351. The cold air flowing out of the second air damper assembly 34 flows through the second air supply channel 351 into the third storage space 38 for refrigeration.
[0049] As Figure 5-7As shown in 13-14, the second air return portion 62 extends in the up-down direction and connects the first air return portion 61 and the second chamber 21. The second air return portion 62 is arranged near the first inner liner 10 in the transverse direction. The second air supply portion 52 is located in front of the second air return portion 62 and is arranged in a cross shape with the second air return portion 62. With such a design, the air supply duct 50 and the air return duct 60 partially overlap in the front-to-back direction, which can reduce the space of the box 40 that the two need to occupy in the transverse direction. The second air supply portion 52 and the second air return portion 62 are spaced apart in the front-to-back direction to prevent the cold air in the second air supply portion 52 from affecting the second air return portion 62 by heat conduction, causing condensation or frost in the second air return portion 62.
[0050] Specifically, the third liner 30 and the first liner 10 are provided with a first air outlet 33 and a return air outlet 14 on the side walls adjacent to each other in the transverse direction, the first air outlet 33 is located on the third liner 30, the return air outlet 14 is located on the first liner 10, the second liner 20 is provided with a notch 28 concave from back to front, the second liner 20 is provided with a second air outlet 23 on the side wall in front of the notch 28, the first return air portion 61 is connected to the third compartment 31 and the cooling channel 111 through the first air outlet 33 and the return air outlet 14, respectively, and the second return air portion 62 is connected to the second compartment 21 through the second air outlet 23. With the above arrangement, the first return air portion 61 and at least part of the second return air portion 62 can be arranged in the foaming space formed by the second liner 20 and the third liner 30 being separated from the first liner 10 in the transverse direction, so as to reduce the occupation of the space in the box body 40 by the return air duct 60.
[0051] Furthermore, the third inner liner 30 includes an inner liner body 36 and a raised portion 37 raised backward from the inner liner body 36, the inner liner body 36 and the raised portion 37 form a clearance space on the side close to the first inner liner 10, part of the second return air portion 62 is arranged in the clearance space, the raised portion 37 has a rear side wall 371 located on its rear side, at least part of the return air duct 60 is located in front of the rear side wall 371, the return air duct 60 also includes a rib 63 connecting the second return air portion 62 and the rear side wall 371, the rib 63 can limit the position of the return air duct 60 to prevent the return air duct 60 from being misplaced when the refrigerator 100 is foaming. In specific settings, a positioning protrusion 372 can be set on the rear side wall 371, and a positioning hole 631 cooperating with the positioning protrusion 372 can be set on the rib 63.
[0052] In this embodiment, the first return air portion 61 has a connecting port 67 connected to the second return air portion 62, and the return air duct 60 also includes a baffle 68 provided on the side of the connecting port 67 close to the third inner liner 30. In the direction in which the third inner liner 30 approaches the first inner liner 10, the baffle 68 is extended and inclined downward. The baffle 68 can prevent the cold air in the second return air portion 62 from entering the third chamber 31 in the reverse direction through the first return air portion 61 when returning air.
[0053] Furthermore, the second air return portion 62 has an air return section 65 close to the first air return portion 61, the air return section 65 extends downward from top to bottom and is inclined toward the first inner liner 10, and in the direction in which the third inner liner 30 approaches the first inner liner 10, the first air return portion 61 is arranged to be inclined downward, such that Figure 13 As shown, the return air in the first return air portion 61 and the second return air portion 62 can flow smoothly to the return air port 14 without interference.
[0054] In this embodiment, the return air duct 60 further includes a support column 64 protruding forward from the second return air portion 62, and a partial area of the third inner liner 30 corresponds to the support column 64 in the front-to-back direction. The support column 64 can abut against the third inner liner 30 when the refrigerator 100 is foaming to prevent the return air duct 60 from being squeezed and deformed by the foaming material, and the support column 64 can also separate the third inner liner 30 from the return air duct 60 to prevent the temperature in the third inner liner 30 from affecting the return air duct 60, resulting in condensation or frost in the return air duct 60. The return air duct 60 can be designed in two halves, that is, the return air duct 60 includes two shells connected in the front-to-back direction.
[0055] In summary, the refrigerator 100 proposed in the present invention, while using a single evaporator to cool three compartments, optimizes the structure of the supply air duct 50 and the return air duct 60 and their layout in the cabinet 40, reduces the space of the cabinet 10 occupied by the supply air duct 50 and the return air duct 60, and increases the volume of the compartments of the refrigerator 100 in disguised form.
