Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0048] Currently, refrigeration equipment (such as refrigerators or freezers) has gone beyond the simple function of storing food. Among them, high-end integrated built-in refrigerators generally have the functions of water purification and cold water supply. Existing refrigerators with cold water supply functions generally have a water storage container installed in the refrigeration chamber to cool the water in the water storage container. However, the water storage container in the existing water supply assembly is usually installed below the refrigeration chamber, but the space below is used more frequently. If the water storage container is installed below the refrigeration chamber, it will occupy the commonly used space in the refrigeration chamber or the installation space of other components. In order to reduce the impact of the water storage container on other spaces, the water tank should not be too large, so that the water supply assembly can supply less cold water, making it difficult to meet the user's demand for large amounts of cold water, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0049] Based on this, the present invention proposes a refrigeration device to solve the problem that the water supply component in the existing refrigeration device supplies less cold water. Figures 1 to 8 This is a structural schematic diagram of the refrigeration equipment provided by the present invention.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the refrigeration equipment 100 includes a box body 1 and a water supply component 2, the box body 1 is provided with a refrigeration chamber 11, the water supply component 2 forms a water supply path for supplying water to the outside, and a water tank 21 is provided on the water supply path. The water tank 21 is arranged on the top of the refrigeration chamber 11.

[0051] It should be noted that, in the present invention, the user is used as a reference for direction. Forward refers to the direction toward the user, or toward the side of the refrigeration device 100 having a door. Rearward refers to the direction opposite to the forward direction, specifically, away from the user. Up and down refers to the direction referenced by gravity. Furthermore, the refrigeration chamber 11 can be of various types, such as a refrigerator or a freezer, and this invention does not limit this.

[0052] The water tank 21 is mainly used for storing water, and its material can be various, for example, it can be metal, such as stainless steel, or polymer material, such as plastic, etc., and the present invention does not limit this. Furthermore, the water tank 21 can have various shapes, for example, it can be a cylindrical structure, or a prismatic structure, etc., and the present invention does not limit this. Furthermore, the water supply flow path is connected to the water storage device to drain the cold water in the water tank 21, so that the water supply component 2 can supply cold water to the outside of the box body 1 or the ice-making mechanism. In addition, since the items are generally placed below the refrigeration chamber 11, the top space of the refrigeration chamber 11 is relatively less utilized, so the water tank 21 is set at the top of the refrigeration chamber 11 to utilize the top space of the refrigeration chamber 11 and reduce the impact on the refrigeration chamber 11.

[0053] In the technical solution of the present invention, the box body 1 is provided so as to provide the water supply assembly 2, and the water tank 21 is provided in the refrigeration chamber 11 so that the water tank 21 can absorb the coldness in the refrigeration chamber 11 to cool the water in the water tank 21, and the water supply assembly 2 is provided so as to discharge the cooling water in the water tank 21 so that the refrigeration equipment 100 can supply cold water. At the same time, since the top space of the refrigeration chamber 11 is used less frequently, the water tank 21 is provided at the top of the refrigeration chamber 11. On the one hand, it can reduce the impact of the water tank 21 on the storage space of the refrigeration chamber 11 and improve the space utilization rate in the refrigeration chamber 11. On the other hand, it is convenient to use the water tank 21 with a larger volume, so that the water supply assembly 21 can supply more cold water to meet the user's demand for a large amount of cold water, thereby solving the problem of less cold water supply by the water supply assembly in the existing refrigeration equipment.

[0054] For further information, please refer to Figure 4 , the water tanks 21 are provided in plurality, and the plurality of water tanks 21 are provided at intervals in the refrigeration chamber 11. In this way, by providing the plurality of water tanks 21 at intervals, it is possible to increase the water storage capacity of the water supply component 2, which helps to increase the supply of cold water of the water supply component 2 to meet the user's demand for cold water, and it is possible to reduce the volume of a single water tank 21, so that the water tanks 21 can be arranged according to the space of the refrigeration chamber 11, thereby improving the space utilization rate of the refrigeration chamber 11. It is understandable that the number of the water tanks 21 is not limited, and can be two, three, or three, etc., and can be adjusted according to needs, and the present invention does not limit this. Specifically, in this embodiment, two water tanks 21 are provided, which can not only increase the supply of cold water of the water supply component 2, but also avoid occupying too much space, so as not to affect the space of the refrigeration chamber 11.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4 A connecting pipe 22 is provided between two adjacent water tanks 21. In this way, by providing the connecting pipe 22, the two adjacent water tanks 21 are connected, so that multiple water tanks 21 are arranged in series, so as to reduce the number of pipes of the water supply component 2, which can reduce the cost of the water supply component 2 and reduce the space occupied by the water supply component 2.

[0056] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4 , the water supply flow path is formed with a water inlet 23 and a water outlet 24, and the water inlet 23 and / or the water outlet 24 are arranged on one side of the box body 1 in the left-right direction, so as to reuse the space beside the box body 1, thereby helping to improve the space utilization rate of the box body 1. Of course, in other embodiments, the water inlet 23 and / or the water outlet 24 can also be arranged on the top of the box body 1, etc., and the present invention does not limit this. It can be understood that the water inlet 23 and / or the water outlet 24 are arranged on one side of the box body 1 in the left-right direction, which means that the water inlet 23 can be arranged on one side of the box body 1 in the left-right direction, or the water outlet 24 can be arranged on one side of the box body 1 in the left-right direction, etc., and the present invention does not limit this.

[0057] In another embodiment, the water inlet 23 and the water outlet 24 are located on the same side of the housing 1, so that the water inlet 23 and the water outlet 24 can reuse the space beside the housing 1, thereby avoiding the need to reserve space on both sides of the housing 1, thereby helping to improve the space utilization of the housing 1. Of course, in other embodiments, the water inlet 23 and the water outlet 24 can also be located on both sides of the housing 1, and the present invention is not limited to this.

[0058] It should be noted that the above two related technical features: "the water inlet 23 and / or the water outlet 24 are arranged on one side of the box body 1 in the left-right direction" and "the water inlet 23 and the water outlet 24 are on the same side of the box body 1" can be set one by one or at the same time, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0059] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4The refrigeration chamber 11 is provided with a shielding member 4 to enclose a receiving chamber 12 at the top of the refrigeration chamber 11. The water tank 21 is disposed in the receiving chamber 12. Thus, by disposing the shielding member 4 to enclose the receiving chamber 12 with the refrigeration chamber 11, the water tank 21 is hidden within the receiving chamber 12, thereby preventing the water tank 21 from being directly exposed within the refrigeration chamber 11, thereby helping to improve the appearance of the refrigeration chamber 11. Furthermore, the shielding member 4 can be connected to the housing 1 in a variety of ways, such as by screw connection or snap connection, which is not limited in the present invention.

[0060] Generally speaking, the door of the refrigeration device 100 is generally provided with a display device so that the user can obtain the temperature and other parameters of the refrigeration chamber 11. However, since the refrigeration device 100 is an embedded device, in order to make the refrigeration device 100 consistent with the user's decoration style, the door of the refrigeration device 100 is usually provided with a decorative panel, so that the user cannot obtain the parameters of the refrigeration device 100 from the door. Therefore, in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The shielding member 4 is provided with a window area 41, and a display element 5 is further provided in the accommodating cavity 12. The display element 5 is provided corresponding to the window area 41. Thus, by providing the display element 5, the parameters of the refrigeration device 100 are displayed, making it convenient for the user to obtain the status of the refrigeration device 100. The provision of the window area 41 not only enables the user to obtain the information on the display element 5, but also blocks the non-window area 41, thereby helping to improve the appearance of the refrigeration chamber 11. It is understandable that there are many ways to form the window area 41, for example, it can be formed by an opening on the shielding member 4, or it can be formed by providing a transparent component on the shielding member 4, etc. As long as the user can obtain the information on the display element 5, the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The accommodating chamber 12 is provided with a connecting port 42 that communicates with the refrigerating chamber 11, and the connecting port 42 is provided with a first ventilation grille 61. In this way, by providing the connecting port 42, the accommodating chamber 12 is connected to the refrigerating chamber 11, so that the water tank 21 can absorb the cold energy in the refrigerating chamber 11 to cool the water in the water tank 21. By providing the first ventilation grille 61, it is possible to prevent impurities from entering the accommodating chamber 12 and improve the appearance of the connecting port 42. Of course, in other embodiments, the accommodating chamber 12 can also be a closed cavity, and the present invention is not limited to this. However, although such a setting can transfer cold energy through the shielding member 4, it will reduce the cooling effect of the refrigerating chamber 11 on the water tank 21.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The refrigeration chamber 11 is provided with a mounting member 7, and the water tank 21 is detachably mounted on the mounting member 7. Thus, by providing the mounting member 7, the water tank 21 can be mounted in the accommodating chamber 12, and a detachable connection structure is adopted to facilitate subsequent maintenance or replacement. It is understood that there are various detachable connection structures, such as a screw connection structure or a snap connection structure, as long as the water tank 21 can be detachably mounted on the mounting member 7, the present invention is not limited thereto. Furthermore, the mounting member 7 is provided with a mounting groove 71 for accommodating the water tank 21, so that the water tank 21 can be securely fixed to the mounting member 7.

[0063] In one embodiment, see Figure 5 The mounting member 7 is provided with a mounting protrusion 72 for mounting the display element 5 . Thus, by providing the mounting protrusion 72 , the display element 5 can be mounted, thereby facilitating fixing the display element 5 in the accommodating cavity 12 .

[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4 The refrigeration equipment 100 also includes a temperature detection device 3 provided in the water tank 21 for detecting the water temperature in the water tank 21. In this way, by providing the temperature detection device 3 to detect the water temperature in the water tank 21, the user can judge the temperature of the cold water supplied by the water supply component 2, which is convenient for the user to get water, thereby helping to improve the user experience. It is understandable that there are many types of temperature detection devices 3, which can be a thermistor thermometer or a resistance thermometer, etc., as long as they can measure the temperature of the water tank 21, the present invention is not limited to this. Furthermore, the temperature detection device 3 is electrically connected to the display element 5 so that the display element 5 can display the water temperature of the water tank 21. Of course, in other embodiments, the water temperature of the water tank 21 can also be displayed by a separate display device, etc., the present invention is not limited to this.

[0065] Further, see Figure 6 and Figure 7A partition 133 is provided within the engine chamber 13 to divide the engine chamber 13 into two sub-chambers. The waterway element 25 and the compressor 16 are disposed in the two sub-chambers. The partition 133 is provided to separate the engine chamber 13 into two sub-chambers, allowing the waterway element 25 and the compressor 16 to be installed in the two sub-chambers, respectively. This isolates the waterway element 25 from the compressor 16, thereby preventing the water supply assembly from being affected by the heat of the compressor 16. It is understood that the partition 133 may be a partition plate, a partition block, or the like, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0066] Furthermore, the two sub-cavities can be arranged in a variety of ways. For example, the two sub-cavities can be arranged in a vertical direction or a front-to-back direction, and the present invention does not limit this. However, if the two sub-cavities are arranged in a vertical direction, a large height is required, which is not suitable for embedded products. If the two sub-cavities are arranged in a front-to-back direction, it is not conducive to the heat dissipation of the compressor 16. Therefore, in this embodiment, the two sub-cavities are arranged in a left-right direction, which can both reduce the height of the machine chamber 13 and facilitate the heat dissipation of the compressor 16.

[0067] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 6 and Figure 7 A heat dissipation channel 132 is formed in the container cavity 13. The heat dissipation channel 132 runs through the container cavity 13 to form two vents. After the air flow is introduced from one of the vents to absorb heat, it is discharged from the other vent. The compressor 16 is located in the heat dissipation channel 132. In this way, by providing the heat dissipation channel 132, the heat generated by the compressor 16 can be promptly taken away, so that the heat generated by the compressor 16 can flow out of the container cavity 13. Furthermore, there are many ways to set the two vents. For example, they can be set in the front-to-back direction, or in the left-to-right direction, or one can be set in the front-to-back direction and the other in the left-to-right direction, etc. The present invention is not limited to this. Specifically, in this embodiment, the two vents are both set at the front end of the container cavity 13. On the one hand, it is convenient for air flow to enter and exit from the front end of the container cavity 13. On the other hand, it is convenient for personnel to perform maintenance from the front side of the refrigerator, so that it can be adapted to embedded products.

[0068] Further, see Figure 6, a partition 133 is provided in the machine cavity 13 to divide the machine cavity 13 into two sub-cavities, the water channel element 25 and the compressor 16 are respectively provided in the two sub-cavities, the two vents are respectively provided corresponding to the two sub-cavities, and ventilation holes are provided on the partition 133 to connect the two sub-cavities. In this way, the two vents are respectively provided in the two sub-cavities to allow airflow to enter and exit the two sub-cavities, and at the same time, the ventilation holes are provided to connect the two sub-cavities so that the two sub-cavities can form the heat dissipation channel 132. Of course, in other embodiments, the two vents can also be both provided in the sub-cavity where the compressor 16 is located, etc., and the present invention does not limit this. Furthermore, there are various numbers of the ventilation holes, which can be one or more, etc., and the present invention does not limit this.

[0069] In order to enable the air flow to flow in the machine cavity 13, in this embodiment, a fan 17 is provided in the ventilation hole. Thus, by providing the fan 17, the air flow in the machine cavity 13 can flow in one direction, so that the heat dissipation channel 132 can dissipate the heat generated by the compressor 16 in a timely manner.

[0070] It is understandable that there are many locations for the fan 17 to be set. For example, it can be set in one of the sub-cavities, or it can be set in the partition 133, etc. The present invention does not limit this. Specifically, in one embodiment, the fan 17 is provided in the partition 133 so that the gas can flow from one of the sub-cavities to the other sub-cavity, thereby helping to increase the gas flow rate. In another embodiment, the fan 17 is provided at the rear end of the partition 133, so as to reduce the probability of the airflow flowing between the two sub-cavities at the front end of the container cavity 13, so that the airflow can flow into the rear end of the container cavity 13, reducing the stagnation area of ​​the gas in the container cavity 13, thereby avoiding the accumulation of heat in the container cavity 13.

[0071] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to the figure, a second ventilation grille 62 is provided at at least one of the ventilation openings. The provision of the second ventilation grille 62 facilitates airflow into and out of the machine chamber 13 while preventing small animals or impurities from entering the machine chamber 13. It will be understood that the provision of the second ventilation grille 62 at at least one of the ventilation openings may mean that the second ventilation grille 62 may be provided at one of the ventilation openings, or at both ventilation openings, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0072] In one embodiment, the second ventilation grille 62 is detachably mounted on the housing. Thus, a detachable connection is employed to facilitate removal and assembly of the second ventilation grille 62, thereby facilitating subsequent maintenance of the water channel element 25 or the compressor 16. It is understood that various detachable connection methods exist, including snap-fit ​​connection structures and screw connection structures, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0073] In one embodiment, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The water channel element 25 includes a filter 251, and the second ventilation grille 62 includes a grille body 621 and a mounting plate 622 provided on the grille body 621. The mounting plate 622 is provided with a mounting hole for placing the filter element of the filter 251. In this way, the grille body 621 is provided to carry the mounting plate 622, and the mounting plate 622 is provided to form the mounting hole, so that the user can replace the filter element of the filter 251 without disassembling the second ventilation grille 62.

[0074] In one embodiment of the present invention, the two sub-chambers include a first sub-chamber 131, and the water channel element 25 is arranged in the first sub-chamber 131 and is located at the end of the first sub-chamber 131 away from the partition 133. On the one hand, the water channel element 25 can be away from the compressor 16 to prevent the water channel element 25 from being affected by the heat of the compressor 16. On the other hand, the heat dissipation channel 132 is formed at the end of the first sub-chamber 131 close to the partition 133, which facilitates the flow of gas into the sub-chamber where the compressor 16 is located.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 The box body includes a box body 14 and a fixing part 15 provided at the lower end of the box body 14. The box body 14 and the fixing part 15 together form the machine cavity 13, wherein the water channel element 25 and the compressor 16 are both installed on the fixing part 15. In this way, by arranging the box body 14 and the fixing part 15 so as to be molded separately, and the box body 14 and the fixing part 15 form the machine cavity 13, the molding difficulty of the machine cavity 13 is reduced.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 7 and Figure 8The water channel element 25 includes a filter 251 and / or a water valve 252. The filter 251 is provided to filter the water in the water channel element 25, thereby purifying the water in the water supply assembly, and the water valve 252 is provided to open or close the water supply flow path. It should be understood that the water channel element 25 including the filter 251 and / or the water valve 252 means that the water channel element 25 may include only the filter 251, only the water valve 252, or both the filter 251 and the water valve 252, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present invention, the water channel element 25 is arranged at the front side of the water tank 21 along the flow direction of the fluid, so that water flows into the water tank 21 after being filtered, so as to remove impurities in the water and prevent impurities from being deposited in the water tank 21.
