AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Refrigerators have poor resistance to deformation in alternating high and low temperature environments, and are prone to excessive deformation, leading to cracking of the inner liner and deformation of the cabinet. In particular, the use of vacuum insulation panels in large-capacity refrigerators reduces the thickness of the cabinet and decreases its rigidity. Existing reinforcement arrangements are insufficient to effectively suppress deformation in the middle of the side walls.

Method used

Reinforcing components are installed within the foaming space of the refrigerator. An arched structure is formed by straight sections and arched sections. The arching direction of the arched structure is consistent with the outward convex direction of the deformation area, forming a channel for the flow of foaming material. The reinforcing components are arranged correspondingly in the deformation area. The reinforcing components resist deformation by axial tension and compression to avoid blocking the flow of foaming material.

Benefits of technology

It improves the structural rigidity and dimensional stability of the refrigerator body, inhibits cracking and permanent deformation of the inner liner, ensures foaming quality, and reduces the impact of reinforcing components on the foaming process.

Abstract

本申请提供了一种冰箱,属于家用电器领域,该冰箱的箱体包括外壳、内胆及形成于二者之间的发泡空间,发泡空间内填充有发泡料,并设置有加强件。加强件由直线段和拱起段围成拱形结构,其中空区域构成供发泡料流通的通道,避免流道阻塞。加强件对应箱体弯曲变形时的变形区域布置,且拱形结构的拱起方向与变形区域的外凸方向相同。当箱体因温度变化发生侧壁弯曲时,加强件承受沿拱形轴线方向的轴向力,利用拱形结构轴向承载效率高的特点,以较小截面尺寸提供有力支撑,有效抑制侧壁变形,降低内胆开裂风险,在保证发泡流动性的同时提升箱体结构刚度与尺寸稳定性。
