[0043] 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.

[0044] An embodiment of the present application provides a drawer assembly and a refrigerator. In order to more clearly illustrate the structure of the drawer assembly and the refrigerator, the drawer assembly and the refrigerator will be introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0045] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a drawer assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 for Figure 1 An exploded view of the drawer assembly is shown. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The enlarged schematic diagram of the drawer assembly part A shown. The present application provides a drawer assembly 100, which is arranged in a refrigerator 200. The drawer assembly 100 includes a panel 10 and a box body 20, and the box body 20 is connected to the panel 10. It can be understood that the refrigerator 200 includes a door body, and the panel 10 is arranged toward the door body. The box body 20 includes a body 21 and a stopper 22. The body 21 is provided with a storage space 201, and the storage space 201 is used to place items. The stopper 22 is convexly arranged on the side of the body 21 away from the storage space 201, and abuts against the panel 10. A card interface 221 is provided on the side of the stopper 22 away from the panel 10. The drawer assembly 100 also includes a first guide rail 30 and a card connector 40. The first guide rail 30 is installed on the body 21 and is located on the same side of the body 21 as the stopper 22. The clip 40 is installed on one end of the first guide rail 30 close to the panel 10, and the clip 40 includes an arc structure 41 protruding toward the stop bar 22, and the arc structure 41 is snapped into the card interface 221. In the prior art, the guide rail is provided with a buckle, but the loading and unloading personnel need to hold one side of the buckle with one hand to deform and disengage the buckle, and then lift the drawer upward with the other hand to disengage the drawer on one side from the buckle, and repeat the same action with the buckle on the other side to complete the disassembly of the drawer. However, such a disassembly and assembly method is relatively complicated, which brings certain inconveniences to the assembly of the factory production line and the disassembly and cleaning of the user. The drawer assembly 100 provided in the present application can complete the disassembly more easily, wherein the arc structure 41 provided on the clip 40 can not only avoid the wear and noise generated by the clip 40 and the stop bar 22 during the mutual contact process, but also has a simple structure and is easy to install. When installing, the loading and unloading personnel put the box body 20 on the corresponding position of the first guide rail 30, hold the first guide rail 30 with two hands, and apply a thrust to the first guide rail 30 so that the arc structure 41 is connected to the card interface 221; when disassembling, the loading and unloading personnel apply a pulling force away from the first guide rail 30 to the box body 20 so that the arc structure 41 is separated from the card interface 221, and the drawer is disassembled. Compared with the prior art, the coordination between the arc structure and the card interface is smoother and simpler, and the disassembly and assembly efficiency of the guide rail is better improved.

[0046] For example, see Figure 4 , Figure 4 for Figure 3The schematic diagram of the structure of the clamping member shown in the figure. The clamping member 40 includes a connecting portion 42, and an opening 44 facing the arc structure 41 is provided in the connecting portion 42. The clamping member 40 also includes two elastic arms 43, and the two elastic arms 43 are located on both sides of the arc structure 41, and one end of each elastic arm 43 is connected to the arc structure 41, and the other end is connected to the connecting portion 42, and the elastic arm 43 is used to drive the arc structure 41 to elastically deform into the opening 44, so that the arc structure is clamped to the card interface 221. Specifically, the connecting portion 42 includes a side surface 421 and two end surfaces 422, the side surface 421 is perpendicular to the panel 10, the two end surfaces 422 are respectively connected to the two ends of the side surface 421 and protrude to the same side, and the end surface 422 close to the panel 10 is provided with the opening 44. When the first guide rail 30 is installed, the arc structure 41 contacts the periphery of the card interface 221 and is squeezed, and the elastic arm 43 drives the arc structure 41 to elastically deform into the opening 44. As the arc structure 41 gradually moves toward the card interface 221, the elastic arm 43 drives the arc structure 41 to reset to be connected to the card interface 221. The elastic structure has good buffering and noise reduction functions, which can further improve the installation feel and facilitate multiple installation and disassembly by loading and unloading personnel.

[0047] Exemplarily, the clamping member 40 further includes a plug-in portion 45, one end of the plug-in portion 45 facing the panel 10 is connected to the connecting portion 42, the first guide rail 30 is provided with a plug-in interface facing the panel 10, and one end of the plug-in portion 45 facing away from the panel 10 is plugged into the plug-in interface. Specifically, a convex rib is provided at the top of the plug-in portion 45, a slot matching the convex rib is provided in the first guide rail 30, the plug-in portion 45 is plugged into the plug-in interface, and the convex rib is correspondingly inserted into the slot to make the installation of the plug-in portion 45 more stable. In practical applications, in addition, those skilled in the art may also use methods such as clamping and welding to install the plug-in portion 45 on the first guide rail 30, which is not limited in this application.

[0048] Exemplarily, the connecting portion 42, the arc structure 41 and the two elastic arms 43 are an integrally formed structure. The integrally formed connection method can enhance the stability of the structure, simplify the installation process, and improve production efficiency. Specifically, the connecting portion 42, the arc structure 41 and the two elastic arms 43 can be made of the same plastic material, and can be integrally formed directly on the injection mold during the processing, which does not require additional assembly, thereby optimizing the manufacturing process.

[0049] For example, see Figure 5-Figure 6 , Figure 5 for Figure 2 The enlarged schematic diagram of the drawer assembly part B is shown. Figure 6 for Figure 1The body 21 includes a side panel 211 and a support member 212, wherein the side panel 211 is perpendicular to the panel 10, the support member 212 and the stop bar 22 are protruding from the side panel 211, the support member 212 is vertically connected to the stop bar, the support member 212 is further provided with a mounting groove facing the first guide rail 30, the first guide rail 30 is partially provided in the mounting groove, and the first guide rail 30 is detachably mounted on the support member 212. In some embodiments, the support member 212 protrudes toward a side away from the accommodating space 201, and the support member 212 includes a top wall 2121 and a side wall. The top wall 2121 is connected to the side panel 211, and the side wall is connected to an end of the top wall 2121 away from the side panel 211 and cooperates with the top wall 2121 to form the mounting groove. The support member 212 and the side panel 211 can be an integrally molded structure, and the box body 20 can be quickly disassembled through the cooperation of the first guide rail 30 and the support member 212.

[0050] Exemplarily, a notch 2122 is formed at one end of the top wall 2121 away from the panel 10, and the first guide rail 30 includes a guide rail body 31 and a claw 32, and the claw 32 is connected to the guide rail body 31 and is clamped in the notch 2122. Specifically, the claw 32 can be a curved structure, and the side away from the panel 10 is arc-shaped, and the side close to the panel 10 is upwardly tilted so that the curved structure enters the notch 2122. During the loading and unloading process, the claw 32 can produce a certain deformation to facilitate the loading and unloading of the first guide rail 30 and the top wall 2121. Those skilled in the art can set the specific structure of the claw 32 according to actual conditions, such as setting a hooking structure, etc., and this application does not limit it here.

[0051] For example, see Figure 7-10 , Figure 7 for Figure 1 A top view of the drawer assembly is shown. Figure 8 for Figure 7 A cross-sectional view of the drawer assembly along AA is shown, Fig. 9 for Figure 8 The enlarged schematic diagram of the drawer component part C shown, Fig.10 for Figure 8An enlarged schematic diagram of a part D of the drawer assembly is shown. A limiting opening 2123 is provided at one end of the top wall 2121 close to the panel 10, and the first guide rail 30 includes a limiting member 33, which is protruding from the guide rail body 31 and disposed in the limiting opening 2123. The limiting member 33 is used to limit the displacement of the first guide rail 30. Specifically, the limiting member 33 includes a limiting surface away from the panel 10, and the limiting surface abuts against the periphery of the limiting opening 2123. When the first guide rail 30 is installed in the installation groove, a certain amount of shaking may occur. The limiting member 33 is arranged to abut against the periphery of the limiting opening 2123, which can further reduce the shaking and improve the structural stability. Those skilled in the art can set the specific structure of the limiting member 33 according to actual conditions, such as setting it to a square, a triangle, etc., and this application does not limit it here.

[0052] Exemplarily, a groove 451 is provided at one end of the plug-in portion 45 close to the connecting portion 42, and a convex block 2124 facing the connecting portion 42 is correspondingly provided on the top wall 2121, and the convex block 2124 is correspondingly inserted into the groove 451 to limit the displacement of the clamping member 40. Specifically, the convex block 2124 may be a square convex block, and since the plug-in portion 45 is plugged into the first guide rail 30, it may be offset, fall off, etc., and the groove 451 of the connecting portion 42 cooperates with the convex block 2124 of the top wall 2121 to limit its displacement, thereby further improving the stability of the installation.
