[0040] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0041] A main control box assembly and a refrigerator are provided in an embodiment of the present application. In order to more clearly illustrate the structure of the main control box assembly and the refrigerator, the main control box assembly and the refrigerator will be introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the refrigerator and the main control box assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 1 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cover body provided in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 for Figure 2An enlarged schematic diagram of a part A of the cover body is shown. The present application provides a main control box assembly 100 including a wiring harness 70 and a cover plate 101, wherein the cover plate 101 includes a main body 10 and a connecting edge 20, wherein the main body 10 is a square structure, and the connecting edge 20 is connected to the periphery of the main body 10. The connecting edge 20 includes a bending section 21, wherein the bending section 21 is bent to form an outlet hole for the wiring harness 70 to pass through. The cover plate 101 also includes a protective edge 30, wherein the protective edge 30 includes a first arc portion 31 and a first extension portion 32 superimposed on the bending section 21, wherein the first arc portion 31 is connected to a side of the bending section 21 away from the main body 10, and transitions from the bending section 21 to the first extension portion 32 in an arc shape. The cover plate 101 is made of sheet metal material. Since the edge of the cover plate 101 is relatively sharp, the outlet of the cover plate 101 of the refrigerator 200 on the market mainly adopts the method of adding plastic parts on the cover plate 101 of the main control box assembly 100 or the wiring harness 70 to prevent scratches, and this method will lead to an increase in cost. The present application adds a protective edge 30 structure. Since the first arc portion 31 is connected to the bending section 21, when the wiring harness 70 passes through, under the protection of the first arc portion 31, the wiring harness 70 will not directly contact the sharp edge of the cover plate 101. The first extension portion 32 is connected to the first arc portion 31, and the distance it extends to the main body 10 can be set according to actual conditions. By setting the protective edge 30, not only can the wiring harness 70 be prevented from being scratched by the sharp edge of the sheet metal main control box cover plate 101 when it is outlet, thereby improving the safety of product use, but also further reducing the production cost and installation process, thereby improving the production efficiency of the product.
[0043] Exemplarily, the connecting edge 20 also includes a straight section 22 connected to the bent section 21, the connecting edge 20 is an annular structure connected to the periphery of the main body 10, the straight section 22 and the bent section 21 are part of the connecting edge 20, the bent section 21 and the straight section 22 are located on the same side of the main body 10, the cover plate 101 also includes a bottom edge, the bottom edge is connected to the side of the straight section 22 away from the main body 10, the bottom edge includes a second arc portion 41 and a second extension portion superimposed on the second arc portion 41, the second arc portion 41 is connected to the side away from the main body 10, and the arc transition from the straight section 22 to the second extension portion. The second extension portion is attached to the box body 201 of the refrigerator 200, and the contact surface between the cover plate 101 and the box body 201 can be increased through the bottom edge structure to prevent the cover body from shifting.
[0044] Exemplarily, the connecting edge 20 includes an inner surface facing the wire harness 70 and an outer surface facing away from the wire harness 70, the first extension portion 32 is superimposed on the outer surface, and the second extension portion is superimposed on the inner surface. Specifically, the inner surface is a side facing the box body 201, and the outer surface is a side facing away from the box body 201. The bending section 21 is protruded from one side of the inner surface to one side of the outer surface, forming an arched structure as a whole, which is conducive to the wire harness 70 passing through.
[0045] Exemplarily, the straight section 22 includes a first part connected to one end of the bending section 21 and a second part connected to the other end of the bending section 21, one end of the edge guard 30 and the bottom edge connected to the first part are spaced apart to form a first crack stop groove 23, and the other end of the edge guard 30 and the bottom edge connected to the second part are spaced apart to form a second crack stop groove 24. The crack stop groove is used in sheet metal bending or convex humping and other forming processes, and its function is to prevent the sheet metal from being torn, deformed, and causing flash safety issues during the forming process. The width of the crack stop groove can be greater than 1.5 times the thickness of the cover plate 101, and the length should exceed the deformation area of the cover plate 101. Among them, according to the position of the bending section 21 on the connecting edge 20, the length of the first part and the second part can be changed accordingly, such as the first part can be longer than the second part, and the present application does not limit this.
[0046] For example, see Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the refrigerator and main control box assembly structure provided in the embodiment of the present application Figure 2 , Figure 5 for Figure 4 The enlarged schematic diagram of the part B of the main control box assembly is shown.
