Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] A refrigerator consists of a cabinet body and a door. The cabinet body is provided with a refrigeration compartment and an access opening. The refrigeration compartment can be used to store food or drinks. The cabinet door can be rotated to open or close the access opening, through which food or drinks can be placed in or taken out of the refrigeration compartment.

[0003] New refrigerator models often use recessed hinges to connect the door and cabinet body to open and close the door. These hinges are mounted on the back panel of the refrigerator via mounting brackets. This reduces the depth of the refrigerator, significantly increasing the package volume and boosting the overall competitiveness of the refrigerator.

[0004] However, since the built-in hinge separates the mounting base from the back panel, screws are required to secure the mounting base to the back panel during assembly to prevent them from separating and causing the freezer door to fall off. Existing single-unit freezer mounting bases are typically attached to the back panel using multiple bolts, and require multiple sponge seals. The mounting base is then secured to the back panel with screws, requiring a dedicated person to use a special pneumatic wrench to secure the screws during final assembly. This results in low production efficiency, cumbersome installation, and low assembly efficiency, impacting the overall production efficiency of the freezer. Utility Model Content

Among them, the side facing the user when the refrigerator 1000 is in use is defined as the front, the opposite side is defined as the back, and the bottom to the top of the cabinet body 100 is the height direction of the cabinet body 100.

[0075] In some embodiments, a mounting opening 1011 is provided on the top of the back panel 101 , and the mounting opening 1011 is used to install the mounting base 300 and the hinge 400 that connect the cabinet body 100 and the cabinet door 200 .

[0076] In some embodiments, the mounting seat 300 is disposed at the mounting opening 1011 , and the mounting seat 300 is configured to be embedded so as to be embedded in the mounting opening 1011 .

[0077] In some embodiments, the hinge 400 is connected to the mounting base 300 and the cabinet door 200 respectively, and the cabinet door 200 is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 100 through the hinge 400 .

[0078] In some embodiments, the mounting port 1011 is formed by a depression from the top of the back plate 101 toward the bottom of the back plate 101, and the mounting port 1011 includes a guide opening 10111, which is set at the top of the mounting port 1011, and the top of the guide opening 10111 forms an opening to facilitate the insertion of the mounting seat 300 into the mounting port 1011 through the guide opening 10111.

[0079] In some embodiments, the mounting base 300 includes a main body 301, and a receiving portion 309 is formed on the main body 301, which is recessed toward the refrigeration compartment 1001. Part of the hinge 400 is installed in the receiving portion 309, so that the hinge 400 installed in the receiving portion 309 is sunk into the cabinet body 100, forming an embedded hinge 400, thereby reducing the space occupied by the refrigerator 1000 and increasing the loading capacity of the refrigerator 1000 during transportation.

[0080] In some embodiments, the mounting base 300 may include a lap plate 302, which is arranged on a side of the body 301 facing away from the refrigeration chamber 1001. When the mounting base 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the lap plate 302 contacts the back panel 101, and the mounting base 300 slides downward along the back panel 101 and is inserted into the mounting opening 1011.

[0081] In some embodiments, the mounting base 300 may include a limit plate 303, which is arranged at the top of the main body 301. The limit plate 303 is arranged on the side of the overlapping plate 302 close to the refrigeration chamber 1001. When the mounting base 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the back panel 101 is arranged between the overlapping plate 302 and the limit plate 303. The overlapping plate 302 and the limit plate 303 limit the back panel 101, so that the mounting base 300 can slide downward along the back panel 101 and be inserted into the mounting opening 1011, thereby preventing the top of the main body 301 from being separated from the back panel 101.

[0082] In some embodiments, the mounting base 300 may include a mating portion 304, which is arranged below the limiting plate 303. The mating portion 304 is connected to the main body 301. When the mounting base 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the mating portion 304 abuts against the side of the back panel 101 close to the refrigeration chamber 1001, which can prevent the main body 301 from being disconnected from the back panel 101 after the back panel 101 and the inner tank 1014 are filled with foam.

[0083] In the embodiment of the present application, a lap plate 302, a stop plate 303, and a mating portion 304 are provided on the back panel 101. When the mounting base 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the back panel 101 is positioned between the lap plate 302 and the stop plate 303, and the mating portion 304 abuts against the side of the back panel 101 near the refrigeration chamber 1001. This prevents the top of the body 301 from being separated from the back panel 101 after the space between the back panel 101 and the inner container 1014 is filled with foam. This prevents the body 301 connected to the mating portion 304 from being separated from the back panel 101, thereby preventing the entire mounting base 300 from being separated from the back panel 101. This improves the assembly efficiency of the mounting base 300 and enhances the stability of the mounting base 300 after assembly. This embodiment saves on screw assembly between the mounting base 300 and the back panel 101, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the mounting base 300.

[0084] In some embodiments, the mating portion 304 is disposed below the body 301, so that when the mounting base 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the bottom of the body 301 abuts against the side of the back panel 101 close to the refrigeration chamber 1001. After foam is filled between the inner tank 1014 and the outer shell 1013, the mounting base 300 squeezes the back panel 101 under the pressure of the filling foam. The arrangement of the mating portion 304 causes the bottom of the body 301 to abut against the back panel 101, thereby preventing the bottom of the body 301 from detaching from the back panel 101.

[0085] In some embodiments, when the mounting base 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the back panel 101 at the edge of the mounting opening 1011 is set between the overlapping plate 302 and the limiting plate 303, and the back panel 101 at the edge of the mounting opening 1011 is set between the overlapping plate 302 and the matching portion 304, and the matching portion 304 is abutted against the side of the back panel 101 close to the refrigeration compartment 1001.

[0086] In some embodiments, the bottom to top of the cabinet 100 is defined as the height direction of the cabinet 100, and the side of the limit plate 303 close to the back panel 101 is defined as the limit surface 3031. The plane where the limit surface 3031 is located is inclined to the plane where the height direction of the cabinet 100 is located. In the direction from the bottom to the top of the cabinet 100, the distance between the limit surface 3031 and the back panel 101 decreases.

[0087] In the direction from the bottom to the top of the cabinet 100, the distance between the limiting surface 3031 and the back panel 101 decreases. When the mounting seat 300 begins to be inserted into the mounting opening 1011, there is a certain distance between the limiting surface 3031 and the back panel 101. As the mounting seat 300 slides downward along the back panel 101 and is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, the back panel 101 is set between the limiting surface 3031 and the overlapping plate 302, and the distance between the limiting surface 3031 and the back panel 101 decreases. The limiting surface 3031 is in contact with the back panel 101, and the foamed material is sealed at the contact point between the limiting surface 3031 and the back panel 101, preventing the foam material from leaking out of the back panel 101.

[0088] The inclined limiting surface 3031 can guide the back plate 101 to be installed between the limiting surface 3031 and the lap plate 302 , thereby playing a role of installation guide and improving the assembly efficiency of the mounting seat 300 .

[0089] In some embodiments, the back plate 101 includes a flange plate 1012 . The flange plate 1012 is disposed along the mounting opening 1011 . The flange plate 1012 is disposed on a side of the back plate 101 close to the refrigeration compartment 1001 .

[0090] In some embodiments, the flange plate 1012 is integrally formed with the back plate 101. The flange plate 1012 is set at the edge of the installation opening 1011 and bent toward the refrigeration compartment 1001, so that the appearance of the refrigerator 1000 is neat and the flange plate 1012 can effectively prevent scratches on users.

[0091] In some embodiments, the flange plate 1012 is arranged below the limiting plate 303, the matching portion 304 abuts against the flange plate 1012, and the distance between the two closest points of the matching portion 304 and the lap plate 302 is greater than the distance between the two farthest points of the limiting plate 303 and the lap plate 302, so that when the mounting seat 300 is inserted into the mounting opening 1011, it is convenient for the back panel 101 and the flange plate 1012 to pass through between the matching portion 304 and the lap plate 302, thereby avoiding the obstruction of the mounting seat 300 caused by the matching portion 304.

[0092] In some embodiments, the installation opening 1011 includes a guide opening 10111 , which is disposed at the top of the installation opening 1011 . The top of the guide opening 10111 is open, and the guide opening 10111 expands from the bottom to the top of the cabinet 100 .

[0093] The opening width of the top of the guide opening 10111 is greater than the opening width of the bottom of the guide opening 10111, so that the mounting seat 300 can be inserted into the mounting opening 1011 at the top of the guide opening 10111. The guide opening 10111 can guide the insertion of the mounting seat 300.

[0094] In some embodiments, the two opposite sides of the top of the guide opening 10111 are chamfered to facilitate the insertion of the guide mounting seat 300 into the mounting opening 1011, and to facilitate the centering of the mounting seat 300 after insertion, so that the mounting seat 300 can be installed quickly and accurately.

[0095] In some embodiments, the edge of the guide opening 10111 abuts against the limiting plate 303 to ensure that there is a sufficient overlapping surface between the back plate 101 and the limiting plate 303 to ensure a sealing effect.

[0096] In some embodiments, the mounting base 300 may include a relief opening 305 disposed on the top of the lap plate 302 .

[0097] In some embodiments, a cabinet frame 500 is provided on the top of the cabinet body 100, and the cabinet frame 500 includes a pressure plate 501. The pressure plate 501 is provided on the top of the mounting seat 300. After the mounting seat 300 is installed in the mounting opening 1011, the pressure plate 501 abuts against the mounting seat 300 and the cabinet body 100 to prevent the filling foam between the inner tank 1014 and the back panel 101 from overflowing from the cabinet body 100, thereby playing a sealing role.

[0098] In some embodiments, the cabinet 100 may include a vertical plate 502 , which is connected to the bottom of the pressure plate 501 , and the vertical plate 502 is arranged corresponding to the avoidance opening 305 .

[0099] After the mounting base 300 is installed in the mounting opening 1011, the vertical plate 502 is set above the overlapping plate 302. The vertical plate 502 is set in the avoidance opening 305 to reduce the external dimensions of the cabinet body 100, reduce the occupied space of the refrigerator 1000, and increase the loading capacity of the refrigerator 1000 during transportation.

[0100] In some embodiments, the vertical plate 502 abuts against the edge of the guide opening 10111 to ensure sufficient overlap between the vertical plate 502 and the back plate 101, ensuring a seal for the foam filling and preventing leakage. The pressure plate 501 overlaps the top of the mounting base 300 to improve the sealing effect of the foam filling.

[0101] In some embodiments, the vertical plate 502 can cover the guide opening 10111 to improve the aesthetics of the refrigerator 1000 .

[0102] In some embodiments, the vertical plate 502 and the pressing plate 501 are integrally formed, and the vertical plate 502 is bent toward the bottom of the cabinet 100 relative to the pressing plate 501 .

[0103] In some embodiments, a clearance opening 305 is provided on the mounting base 300 to assemble the vertical plate 502 , which can avoid changes to the mold of the cabinet 100 , save costs, and improve the commonality of the current cabinet 100 mold.
