[0041] Combined with Figures 1-6 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a refrigerator facilitating material operation, including: a main cabinet 100 and a first side cabinet 200. In the middle area of the front side of the main cabinet 100, a first storage area 101 is provided, and pulling areas 102 are provided on both sides of the first storage area 101; there are two first side cabinets 200, and they are respectively vertically arranged in the pulling areas 102 on both sides of the first storage area 101 in a pullable manner, and jointly define a semi-open access space 300 with the main cabinet 100 when they are pulled out.

[0042] Using the refrigerator provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure that facilitates material operation, two pull-out first side boxes 200 are provided on the main box body 100. After the two first side boxes 200 are pulled out, a semi-enclosed rectangular space can be formed with the main box body 100. This rectangular space allows users to walk in and form a picking and placing room 300 for users to store and retrieve items on the main box body 100 and the first side boxes 200. The main box body 100 and the two first side boxes 200 are used to store items simultaneously, increasing the volume of the refrigerator. Moreover, the main box body 100 and the first side boxes 200 surround the user, providing a walk-in experience for the user. Among them, the first side box 200 is only pulled out when the user needs to store and retrieve items. The temperature in the formed picking and placing room 300 is close to room temperature and there will be no feeling of excessive cold, maintaining the comfort of the ambient temperature while the user enjoys the walk-in experience and not reducing it, improving the overall user experience.

[0043] Optionally, the refrigerator that facilitates material operation further includes: a second side box 400. The second side box 400 is slidably connected to the first side box 200, and the sliding direction is the same as the sliding direction of the first side box 200 relative to the main box body 100. In this way, on the basis of the first side box 200, a slidable second side box 400 is added, further increasing the hierarchical division of the storage space, improving the convenience for users to classify and store items, and increasing the distance that the first side box 200 and the second side box 400 are pulled out relative to the main box body 100 as a whole, enhancing the user's walk-in experience. At the same time, when the overall distance that can be pulled out relative to the main box body 100 is relatively large, the thickness of the main box body 100 can be effectively reduced, avoiding the situation that it is difficult to store and retrieve items in the first storage area 101 on the main box body 100 due to the excessive thickness of the main box body 100, optimizing the rationality of the layout of each storage space, and improving the convenience of user use.

[0044] Optionally, the first side box 200 includes: a second storage area 202 and a pull-out bin 203. The second storage area 202 faces the picking and placing room 300; the pull-out bin 203 is arranged on the side of the second storage area 202 opposite to the picking and placing room 300, and the second side box 400 is slidably arranged in the pull-out bin 203. In this way, both the second storage area 202 and the first storage area 101 can face the picking and placing room 300, facilitating users to store and retrieve items more conveniently when walking into the picking and placing room 300. Moreover, a pull-out bin 203 is arranged on the first side box 200, enabling the second side box 400 to be pulled out in the pull-out bin 203. When the second side box 400 is located inside the pull-out bin 203, its closed state can be maintained, reducing unnecessary cold leakage. And the position of the pull-out bin 203 is arranged on the side of the second storage area 202 opposite to the picking and placing room 300, which can avoid blocking the second storage area 202.

[0045] Optionally, the second storage area 202 communicates with the drawer bin 203 through the first air hole 204. In this way, cold air can enter the second storage area 202 from the drawer bin 203 through the first air hole 204 to supply cold to the second storage area 202. After the first side box body 200 is pulled out, the low temperature in the second side box body 400 can still be maintained.

[0046] Optionally, a third storage area 403 with the same orientation as the second storage area 202 is provided on the second side box body 400. In this way, the third storage area 403 on the second box body 120 has the same orientation as the second storage area 202, which is convenient for users to access items in it in the access room 300, and the first storage area 101, the second storage area 202, and the third storage area 403 can all face the access room 300 together, improving the display effect in the access room 300.

[0047] Optionally, the third storage area 403 communicates with the drawer bin 203 through the second air hole 404. In this way, the cold air in the drawer bin 203 can enter the third storage area 403 through the second air hole 404. Similarly, when both the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 are pulled out, the low temperature environment in the third storage area 403 can be maintained.

[0048] Optionally, a communication air duct is provided between the main box body 100 and the first side box body 200. In this way, the main box body 100 sends cold air into the first side box body 200 through the communication air duct to maintain the refrigerated environment in the first side box body 200 and improve the storage effect.

[0049] Optionally, the main box body 100 communicates with the drawer bin 203 of the first side box body 200 through the communication air duct. In this way, cold is provided to the drawer bin 203 through the main box body 100, and then cold can be supplied to the second storage area 202 and the third storage area 403 through the drawer bin 203. When the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 are pulled out, the low temperature environments on the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 can still be maintained.

[0050] Optionally, a heat insulation layer is provided on one side of the drawer bin 203 facing away from the opening direction of the second storage area 202. In this way, the heat insulation effect of the drawer bin 203 can be improved, the energy leakage in the drawer bin 203 can be reduced, it is more energy-efficient, and the low temperature environments in the second storage area 202 and the third storage area 403 can be better maintained.

[0051] Optionally, the height of the first side box body 200 is greater than or equal to 95% of the height of the main box body 100 and less than or equal to the height of the main box body 100. In this way, when the first box body 110 is slidably disposed in the main box body 100, the height of the first box body 110 is maintained close to the height of the main box body 100, thereby forming a more regular semi-closed space, making full use of the space, enabling the first side box body 200 to better cooperate with the main box body 100, giving the user a feeling of stepping into an independent space, and providing a better stepping experience for the user.

[0052] Optionally, the first storage area 101 includes: a freezing area 103, a vacuum area 104, and an operation area 105. The operation area 105 is disposed between the freezing area 103 and the vacuum area 104, and the three are arranged vertically. In this way, the first storage area 101 on the main box body 100 is mainly used to store some items that need to be cryogenically frozen and vacuum-preserved, storing the items more precisely. At the same time, an operation area 105 is provided in the middle area, which can complement the cabinets in the kitchen, making it more convenient and comfortable for the user to perform material operations in the operation area 105.

[0053] Optionally, a first sliding door 106 is provided at the mouth of the vacuum area 104, and the first sliding door 106 can be slid upward or downward to open. In this way, setting the first sliding door 106 of the vacuum area 104 to slide up and down to open can avoid interference with the first side box body 200 in the left-right opening mode and affect the use experience.

[0054] Optionally, no door body is provided on the operation area 105, or a second sliding door body 107 is provided, and the second sliding door body 107 can also be slid upward or downward to open. In this way, interference with the first side box body 200 in the left-right opening direction can also be avoided.

[0055] Optionally, the length of the pull-out bin 203 in the longitudinal height direction is less than the length of the second storage area 202 in the longitudinal height direction, and the depth of a part of the second storage area 202 can extend to the side surface of the pull-out bin 203 and the side surface facing away from the second storage area 202 and be flush with this side surface. In this way, the second storage area 202 can retain some storage spaces with a larger depth, facilitating the storage of some large-volume items.

[0056] Optionally, the upper end of the pull-out bin 203 is flush with the upper end of the second storage area 202, and the lower end of the pull-out bin 203 is higher than the lower end of the second storage area 202. In this way, the part with a larger depth in the second storage area 202 can be set at the bottom of the entire second storage area 202, and larger items can be stored at the bottom of the second storage area 202 to improve the stability of their storage.

[0057] Optionally, the first storage area 101, the second storage area 202, and the third storage area 403 are each provided with an independent door body. In this way, when the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 are pulled out, the independent door bodies can keep each storage area closed when not in use, reducing the leakage of cold air and better maintaining the refrigerated storage environment.

[0058] Optionally, a detachable storage frame is provided on the second storage area 202 or the third storage area 403, and a handle is provided on the side of the storage frame. In this way, the storage frame can be directly removed from the second storage area 202 or the third storage area 403, facilitating the access of items therein.

[0059] Optionally, pull-out moving wheels 205 are provided on the lower side of the first side box body 200. In this way, since the weight of the items stored in the first side box body 200 is relatively high, the pull-out moving wheels 205 provided on its lower side can provide effective support for the first side box body 200, keeping the first side box body 200 able to be smoothly pulled out, alleviating the force between the main box body 100 and the first side box body 200, and improving the overall stability.

[0060] Combined Figures 7-13 As shown, in some alternative embodiments, the main box body 100 includes: a first box body 110 and a second box body 120. A refrigeration device 111 and a first splicing air duct 112 connected to the refrigeration device 111 are arranged inside the first box body 110, and a switchable first splicing port 113 is reserved on the first splicing air duct 112; one or more second box bodies 120 are provided, and a second splicing air duct 121 is arranged inside, and the second splicing air duct 121 is provided with a switchable second splicing port 122 and a third splicing port 123, wherein the second splicing port 122 can be adapted and spliced with the first splicing port 113, and the third splicing port 123 is used for adapting and splicing with the second splicing ports 122 of other box bodies when multiple second box bodies 120 are provided. In this way, a refrigeration device 111 is arranged inside the first box body 110 and is connected to the first splicing air duct 112, and a second splicing air duct 121 is arranged inside the second box body 120. When the first box body 110 and the second box body 120 are combined, the first splicing port 113 on the first splicing air duct 112 can be spliced and combined with the second splicing port 122 on the second splicing air duct 121, so that the two box bodies can share the refrigeration device 111, thereby reducing the overall cost. Compared with multiple independent refrigerators, the combined refrigerator in this solution has stronger linkage between the combined box bodies and can effectively improve the user experience.

[0061] Optionally, splicing surfaces 130 are provided on both the first box body 110 and the second box body 120. The splicing surfaces 130 of different box bodies can be adapted and spliced with each other. Moreover, the first splicing interface 113, the second splicing interface 122, and the third splicing interface 123 are all installed on the splicing surface 130. In this way, by providing the splicing surfaces 130 on both the first box body 110 and the second box body 120, it is convenient to splice the two, and the first splicing interface 113, the second splicing interface 122, and the third splicing interface 123 are all installed on the splicing surface 130. When the splicing surfaces 130 of the first box body 110 and the second box body 120 are spliced with each other, it is convenient to connect the respective splicing interfaces to enable the first box body 110 and the second box body 120 to better form an integral whole, making the assembled combined box bodies have better integrity.

[0062] Optionally, two splicing surfaces 130 are provided on the first box body 110, which are the left and right side surfaces thereof, and two first splicing interfaces 113 are provided on the first splicing air duct 112, respectively facing the two splicing surfaces 130. In this way, the left and right sides of the first box body 110 can be spliced with the second box body 120, improving the applicability of the first box body 110.

[0063] It can be understood that the second box body 120 can also be provided with two splicing surfaces 130 or can also be provided with only one splicing surface 130. In the case of providing two splicing surfaces 130, one can be spliced with the first box body 110, and the other can be spliced with other second box bodies 120. In the case of providing one splicing surface 130, it is only used for splicing with the first box body 110.

[0064] Optionally, the splicing surface 130 is a single-layer injection-molded plate or a single-layer sheet metal layer. In this way, since the splicing surfaces 130 between different box bodies can be spliced with each other and the splicing surfaces 130 will not be directly exposed after splicing, the requirement for the heat preservation effect is not high. By using a single-layer injection-molded plate or a single-layer sheet metal layer, the cost can be effectively reduced, and the thickness of the splicing surface 130 can be effectively reduced, thereby reducing the width of the overall combined refrigerator after splicing and reducing the space occupation.

[0065] Optionally, the combined refrigerator further includes a heat preservation cover plate 140, and the heat preservation cover plate 140 can be adapted to cover the splicing surface 130. In this way, when some splicing surfaces 130 are not spliced with other splicing surfaces 130, the heat preservation cover plate 140 can cover this part of the splicing surface 130 to improve the heat preservation effect of this splicing surface 130.

[0066] Optionally, fixing positions 150 are provided on both the left and right sides of the gap formed after the splicing surfaces 130 of the first box body 110 and the second box body 120 are spliced together, and the two fixing positions 150 are clamped by a fixing member 151. In this way, the two can be better fixed from the side of the splicing surface 130 through the fixing member 151, ensuring splicing stability while improving the convenience of splicing and combining the two.

[0067] In some alternative embodiments, mounting grooves 160 are provided on the lower sides of the first box body 110 and the second box body 120. Movable wheels 161 are provided in the mounting grooves 160, and the fixing positions 150 are arranged in the mounting grooves 160. The fixing member 151 includes a connecting portion and a clamping portion. The clamping portions are vertically arranged at both ends of the connecting portion and can be clamped on the side walls of the mounting grooves 160, enabling the connecting portion to be attached to the lower side surfaces of the first box body 110 and the second box body 120. In this way, the movable wheels 161 arranged in the mounting grooves 160 can effectively reduce the height of the first box body 110 and the second box body 120 from the bottom of the movable wheels 161, avoiding too large a gap on the lower side of the refrigerator. At the same time, by using the mounting grooves 160 as the fixing positions 150 for connecting the first box body 110 and the second box body 120, the structure of the mounting grooves 160 can be fully utilized, eliminating the need to additionally set the fixing positions 150 and simplifying the structure at the bottom of the first box body 110 and the second box body 120.

In this way, the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401 can share the same chute, thereby reducing the thickness of the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401 and the space occupied by the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401.

[0120] Optionally, the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401 are electric slide rails. In this way, the electric slide rails can automatically drive the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 to open, improving the convenience of pulling and pushing the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 for use.

[0121] Optionally, a first locking structure 501 is provided between the main box body 100 and the first side box body 200, a second locking structure 502 is provided between the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400, a door panel 402 is fixedly provided on the front side of the second side box body 400, and a locking control assembly 500 capable of controlling the opening and closing of the first locking structure 501 and / or the second locking structure 502 is provided on the door panel 402. In this way, the user can directly operate the locking control assembly 500 on the front side of the door panel 402, and control the opening and closing of the first locking structure 501 and the second locking structure 502 through the locking control assembly 500, so that the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 can be pulled out separately or both can be pulled out, facilitating the user to select a suitable area for storage and retrieval according to different items and improving the convenience of user use.

[0122] It can be understood that the first locking structure 501 and the second locking structure 502 can be a mechanical locking structure or an electromagnetic locking structure. Preferably, the electromagnetic locking structure is adopted, and both the mechanical locking structure and the electromagnetic locking structure are well-known technical means in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0123] Optionally, the locking control component 500 includes a first locking key 503 and a second locking key 504. When it is detected that the user triggers the first locking key 503, it controls the first locking structure 501 to lock and the second locking structure 502 to unlock. When it is detected that the user triggers the second locking key 504, it controls the second locking structure 502 to lock and the first locking structure 501 to unlock. When it is not detected that the user triggers the first locking key 503 and the second locking key 504, it controls the first locking structure 501 to be closed, or controls one of the first locking structure 501 and the second locking structure 502 to lock and the other to unlock. When it is determined that one of the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 is completely pulled out, it controls the other locking first locking structure 501 or second locking structure 502 in the locked state to unlock. In this way, by triggering the first locking key 503 or the second locking key 504, the pulling out of the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400 can be controlled more directly, making the use more convenient and intuitive.

[0124] Optionally, the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401 are electric slide rails, and the electric slide rails are connected to a slide rail controller, and the slide rail controller is connected to the locking control component 500. When it is determined that the user triggers the first locking key 503 or the second locking key 504, it controls the slide rail corresponding to the first locking structure 501 or the second locking structure 502 in the open state to slide; when the user does not trigger the first locking key 503 and the second locking key 504, when it is determined that the user pulls the first side box body 200 and the second side box body 400, it synchronously controls the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401 to start sliding. In this way, when the user triggers the first locking key 503 or the second locking key 504, the first slide rail 201 or the second slide rail 401 can be directly controlled to pull out the first side box body 200 or the second side box body 400, improving the convenience of user use.

[0125] It can be understood that the slide rail control component is also connected to an opening key. When the user directly triggers the opening key, it synchronously controls the first slide rail 201 and the second slide rail 401 to start sliding.
