[0041] At present, the compartments of air-cooled refrigerators are layered with shelves, and food is placed on different shelves for easy classification. However, the refrigerator air outlet is close to some shelves, causing the food on the shelves to be opposite to the air outlet, so that the food is blown directly, causing the food temperature to cool suddenly or even freeze, which does not meet the food storage temperature.

[0042] The prior art provides an adjustable shelf, and when food is found to correspond to the air outlet, the shelf is adjusted to move up and down or left and right to avoid the air outlet. However, it is inconvenient to place things on the shelf and move them, and the movable shelf has a complex structure and high cost.

[0043] The present application arranges the movable cover plate in correspondence with the air supply vent, and controls the movement of the movable cover plate through a lever assembly to adjust different air supply positions, thereby facilitating refrigerator refrigeration and placing the air supply vent to blow directly on food.

[0044] Combination Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides an air supply structure 10 for a refrigerator 20 and the refrigerator 20. The air supply structure 10 for the refrigerator 20 includes an inner liner 21, a movable cover 11 and a lever 121 assembly 12. The inner liner 21 defines a refrigeration space 211 of the refrigerator 20, and a plurality of air supply ports 212 are provided on the inner wall of the inner liner 21 from top to bottom; the movable cover 11 is correspondingly provided on at least part of the air supply ports 212 from the outside of the inner liner 21, wherein moving the movable cover 11 can close part of the air supply ports 212 and open part of the air supply ports 212 to adjust the air supply position; the lever 121 assembly 12 is movably provided on the inner wall of the inner liner 21, and the lever 121 assembly 12 is connected to the movable cover 11, and the lever 121 assembly 12 can control the movement of the movable cover 11 by toggling the lever 121 assembly 12.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the rear side wall of the inner liner 21 is provided with a plurality of air supply ports 212 in sequence from top to bottom, and the movable cover plate 11 is provided on the rear side wall of the inner liner 21 outside the inner liner 21. The rear side wall of the inner liner 21 is provided with air supply ports 212 above and below the movable cover plate 11, and the movable cover plate 11 can be moved up and down along the rear outer wall of the inner liner 21 so that the upper part of the movable cover plate 11 covers the upper air supply ports 212 adjacent thereto, or the lower part of the movable cover plate 11 covers the lower air supply ports 212 adjacent thereto. The rear side wall of the inner liner 21 is provided with a avoidance hole 213 connecting the inside and outside of the inner liner 21 between adjacent air outlets 212, and the movable cover plate 11 is provided with a lever 121 protruding toward the inside of the avoidance hole 213 corresponding to the avoidance hole 213, and one end of the lever 121 extends from the outside of the rear side wall of the inner liner 21 through the avoidance hole 213 to the inside of the refrigeration space 211, so that the lever 121 can be contacted in the refrigeration space 211 when the door of the refrigerator 20 is opened. Among them, one end of the avoidance hole 213 is close to the upper air outlet 212, and the other end extends downward to the air outlet 212 close to the lower side, so as to provide space for the lever 121 to move up and down. When the lever 121 is moved upward to the upper end of the avoidance hole 213, the upper part of the movable cover 11 moves to cover the adjacent air outlet 212 above, and the lower part of the movable cover 11 moves upward to open the adjacent air outlet 212 below; when the lever 121 is moved downward to the lower end of the avoidance hole 213, the lower part of the movable cover 11 moves to cover the adjacent air outlet 212 below, and the upper end of the movable cover 11 moves downward to open the adjacent air outlet 212 above. When the movable cover 11 blocks the lower air outlet 212, the refrigeration space 211 mainly discharges air from the adjacent air outlet above the movable cover 11. At this time, the movable partition 22 can be adjusted to be placed in the installation position above the adjacent air outlet below the movable cover 11, so that the wind flowing out of the air outlet is located above the movable cover 11, and the distance is relatively far. The food is placed on the movable cover 11, and the wind from the air outlet flows above the food. On the contrary, when the movable cover 11 blocks the upper air outlet 212, the refrigeration space 211 is mainly the air outlet adjacent to the lower portion of the movable cover 11.
