The low-pressure liquid refrigerant flowing out of the expansion valve enters the evaporator, and the liquid refrigerant absorbs heat when flowing through the evaporator and evaporates into a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas, and the refrigerant gas in a low-temperature and low-pressure state returns to the compressor. The evaporator can achieve a refrigeration effect by utilizing the latent heat of evaporation of the refrigerant to exchange heat with the material to be cooled. In the entire cycle, the refrigerator 100 can adjust the temperature of the storage space.

[0066] In the following, reference will be made to the Figure 1-15 The embodiments of the present application are described in detail.

[0067] The refrigerator 100 includes a box body 1 and a door body 21. An inner tank 3 is provided in the box body 1. A compartment 31 for storing items is formed in the inner tank 3. An evaporator and an air duct are also provided in the box body 1. The air duct is connected to the refrigeration space where the evaporator is located.

[0068] In the prior art, a high-power lighting lamp is provided on the top of the compartment 31, which is turned on when the door 21 is opened and turned off when the door 21 is closed, so as to illuminate the interior of the compartment 31. Other refrigerators 100 use two-side lighting or back light source lighting, which irradiates a large amount of light outward in a point or line shape from the light source, resulting in uneven lighting effect, which affects the user experience.

[0069] The present application proposes a refrigerator 100 with a surface light source, which can provide softer light into the refrigerator 100 to achieve a better visual effect inside the refrigerator 100.

[0070] The refrigerator 100 includes a housing 1, a storage space is formed in the housing 1, and a door 21 is rotatably connected to the housing 1, and the door 21 is used to open or close the storage space.

[0071] The inner container 3 is arranged in the box body 1 , and a compartment 31 is formed in the inner container 3 . A shelf 34 is arranged in the inner container 3 , and the shelf 34 divides the inner container 3 into a plurality of compartments 31 .

[0074] After the light emitted from the LED light board 43 is scattered by the LED lens 42, the light enters one side of the light-transmitting panel 41 and is scattered inside the light-transmitting panel 41. The light-transmitting panel 41 emits the scattered light. The light-transmitting panel 41 is a surface light source, which improves the lighting effect inside the refrigerator 100.

[0075] Compared with the prior art, the refrigerator 100 of the present application emits light through the LED light panel 43. The light is scattered after passing through the LED lens 42. The scattered light enters the light-transmitting panel 41 again from one side of the light-transmitting panel 41. The light is scattered again inside the light-transmitting panel 41 and enters the space in the inner tank 3 through the light-transmitting panel 41. The light-transmitting panel 41 is a surface light source.

The two lighting devices are symmetrically arranged, which is more beautiful.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, a shelf 34 is provided in the refrigerator 100, and the shelf 34 divides the compartment 31 into multiple spaces. The transparent panel and the shelf 34 do not overlap in the height direction of the box body 1 to reduce the probability of the shelf 34 blocking the light emitted from the transparent panel, so as to achieve a better lighting effect.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present application, a recessed portion 35 is provided on the wall of the inner liner 3, and the recessed portion 35 is recessed in a direction away from the center of the inner liner 3. The shape and size of the recessed portion 35 match the shape and size of the outer frame 44, so that the outer frame 44 can be installed in the recessed portion 35, so that the lighting device is installed in the recessed portion 35, so that the lighting device can fit better with the side wall 332 of the inner liner 3, so that the installation effect between the lighting device and the inner liner 3 is more beautiful.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present application, there are multiple LED lenses 42, and multiple LED lamps are arranged on the LED lamp board 43. A single LED lamp is matched with a single LED lens 42. The LED lens 42 is a scattering lens, so that the light emitted from the LED can be surrounded by the LED lens 42 and scattered into scattered light, thereby making the light divergence effect better.

[0089] The refrigerator 100 also includes at least one LED light panel 43, which is arranged on the second side of the LED lens 42, and the first side is opposite to the second side, so that the light emitted by the LED lamp enters the LED lens 42 from the second side, and then is emitted to the light-transmitting panel 41 through the first side, and the light is scattered from the light-transmitting panel 41 into the inner tank 3.

[0090] The outer frame 44 is connected to the outer peripheral side of the light-transmitting panel 41 . The light-transmitting panel 41 has a light-transmitting side surface opposite to the first side surface. The light-transmitting side surface is not completely blocked by the outer frame 44 so that the light emitted from the first side surface of the LED lens 42 can be irradiated into the light-transmitting panel 41 .

[0091] A protrusion 45 is provided on the side of the outer frame 44 closest to the inner liner 3, and the protrusion 45 is connected to the connecting opening 32 on the inner liner 3, so that the light-transmitting panel 41 is connected to the side wall 332 of the inner liner 3, thereby fixing the light-transmitting panel 41 and the inner liner 3.

[0092] The refrigerator 100 includes a box body 1 and a door body 21. An inner tank 3 is provided in the box body 1. A compartment 31 for storing items is formed in the inner tank 3. An evaporator and an air duct are also provided in the box body 1. The air duct is connected to the refrigeration space where the evaporator is located. Cold air flows from the air duct into the temperature control area to adjust the temperature in the temperature control area.

[0093] In the prior art, a high-power illuminator is provided on the top of the compartment 31, which is turned on when the door 21 is opened and turned off when the door 21 is closed, so as to illuminate the interior of the compartment 31. When a large number of items are stacked on the shelf 34 closest to the illuminator in the compartment 31, the items will block the light of the illuminator on the top from reaching the bottom of the compartment 31, resulting in poor lighting effect at the bottom of the compartment 31, affecting the user's observation of the bottom of the compartment 31 and reducing the user experience.

[0094] The present application provides a refrigerator 100 with good lighting effect in the bottom compartment 313. The refrigerator 100 includes a box body 1, a storage space is formed in the box body 1, a door body 21, the door body 21 is rotatably connected to the box body 1, and is used to open or close the storage space, and a top plate 22 and a base 23 are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the box body 1.

[0097] The infrared receiving device 62 is connected to the side light source 52 through a circuit, and the infrared receiving device and the infrared emitting device 61 are arranged opposite to each other so that the infrared rays emitted by the infrared emitting device 61 directly irradiate the infrared receiving device 62 .

[0098] When the infrared ray emitted by the infrared emitting device is blocked, the infrared ray is blocked by the arm, and the circuit where the infrared receiving device and the side light source 52 are located is energized to turn on the side light source to illuminate the compartment 31 closest to the base 23, so that people can directly observe the items in the compartment 31 through the light emitted by the side light source.

[0099] Compared with the prior art, the refrigerator 100 of the present application is provided with a side light source in the compartment 31, and an infrared receiving device 62 is provided on the side light source. When the arm is extended into the compartment 31, the infrared rays are blocked, and the infrared receiving device 62 cannot receive the infrared rays. At this time, the circuit where the side light source is located is energized, so that the side light source is energized to emit light to illuminate the compartment 31. By setting a side light source that can determine the position of the human body, the side light source is automatically turned on according to demand. The side light source can illuminate the compartment 31. The side light source is turned on only when a person needs it.

Compared with the prior art, the present application has obvious progress.

[0100] In some embodiments of the present application, one or two side light sources are provided in the compartment 31 closest to the base 23 , and the side light sources are connected to the left side wall 332 and / or the right side wall 332 of the compartment 31 .

[0101] When the user moves his arm in the compartment 31, the infrared rays emitted by the infrared emitting device 61 provided on the left wall 332 and / or the right wall 332 of the compartment 31 are more likely to be blocked by the arm, and the side light source is more likely to be turned on, so that the light in the compartment 31 better meets the needs of the user.

[0102] In some embodiments of the present application, there are two side light sources, which are respectively connected to the left side wall 332 and the right side wall 332 of the compartment 31 closest to the base 23. The two side light sources are arranged relative to each other, and the projection of one side light source on the side wall 332 of the compartment 31 opposite to it overlaps with the other side light source, so that the two side light sources are arranged symmetrically, and the light emitted by the two symmetrically arranged side light sources is more evenly distributed in the compartment 31, so as to achieve a better lighting effect.

[0103] In some embodiments of the present application, the chamber 31 includes a top chamber 311, a middle chamber 312 and a bottom chamber 313, the top chamber 311 is closest to the top plate 22, the bottom chamber 313 is closest to the base 23, the middle chamber 312 is located between the top chamber 311 and the bottom chamber 313, and the middle chamber 312 and the bottom chamber 313 are respectively provided with a side light source, an infrared receiving device 62 and an infrared emitting device 61.

[0104] A shelf 34 is disposed on the top of the middle compartment 312 , and light is easily blocked by the shelf 34 . Therefore, a side light source is disposed in the middle compartment 312 so that the middle compartment 312 can also be illuminated by the side light source, so that the lighting effect of all compartments 31 is better.

[0105] In some embodiments of the present application, the infrared receiving device 62 located in the middle compartment 312 is defined as a first infrared receiving device 621. The first infrared receiving device 621 corresponds to a first infrared switch 6211. The first infrared switch 6211 is connected in series with a door switch and a side light source located in the middle compartment 312. The door switch cooperates with the door body 21 so that the door body 21 switch is closed when the door is opened.

[0106] In some embodiments of the present application, the infrared receiving device 62 located in the bottom compartment 313 is defined as a second infrared receiving device 622 , which corresponds to a second infrared switch 6222 , which is connected in series with the door switch and the side light source located in the bottom compartment 313 .

[0107] In some embodiments of the present application, the top light source 51 is connected in series with the door switch; the branch where the first infrared switch 6211 is located is the first branch, the branch where the second infrared switch 6222 is located is the second branch, and the branch where the top light source 51 is located is the third branch, and the first branch, the second branch and the third branch are connected in parallel.

[0108] The door switch is connected in series with the first branch, the second branch and the third branch, and the door switch is connected in series with the power supply.

[0109] When the door is closed, the door switch is turned on, and the top light source 51 and the side light source are not connected to the power supply.

[0110] When the door is opened, the door switch is closed, and the top light source 51 is turned on. When the arm moves into the middle compartment 312, the infrared receiving device 62 of the middle compartment 312 cannot receive infrared rays, and the infrared rays are blocked by the arm. The first infrared switch 6211 corresponding to the infrared receiving device 62 is closed, so that the side light source of the middle compartment 312 is turned on; when the arm moves to the bottom compartment 313, the infrared receiving device of the bottom compartment 313 cannot receive infrared rays, and the infrared rays are blocked by the arm. The second infrared switch 6222 corresponding to the infrared receiving device 62 is closed, so that the side light source of the bottom compartment 313 is turned on.

[0111] In some embodiments of the present application, the power of the top light source 51 is not less than the power of the side light source, so that the light emitted by the top light source 51 is stronger. Since the side light source can only be turned on when the arm moves to the compartment 31, the stronger top light source 51 can play an effective lighting role.

[0112] In some embodiments of the present application, the partition is a shelf 34 , and the shelf 34 is made of a transparent material so that the light emitted by the top light source 51 can penetrate the shelf 34 .

[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, the side light source 52 is connected to the left side wall 332 and / or the right side wall 332 of the inner tank 3, and there are at least two side light sources, which are respectively arranged in two compartments 31, one of the side light sources 52 is located in the compartment 31 closest to the base 23, and the side light source 52 and the top light source 51 can be arranged in the same compartment 31 so that when the user observes the compartment 31, the top light source is on.

[0114] The infrared receiving device 62 is connected to the side light source 52 through a circuit, and the infrared emitting device 61 is arranged on the side wall 332 of the inner container 3 opposite to the infrared receiving device, so that the infrared ray emitted by the infrared emitting device 61 directly irradiates the infrared receiving device 62. When the infrared ray emitted by the infrared emitting device is blocked, the circuit where the infrared receiving device and the side light source 52 are located is energized to turn on the side light source and illuminate the compartment 31, so that when the arm is extended into the compartment 31, the side light source is lit, thereby making the light brighter and facilitating the user to take out items.

[0115] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model, which should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
