[0040] This utility model embodiment provides a drawer 10, such as Figure 1-3As shown, the device includes a main body 1 and a transparent window assembly 2 fixed to the main body 1. A first window 111 is formed on the side of the main body 1, and a first buckle 1121 is provided. The first buckle 1121 is located next to the first window 111. The transparent window assembly 2 is located on the side of the main body 1. The transparent window assembly 2 includes a transparent window 21 and a frame 22. The frame 22 is provided with a second buckle 221. The transparent window 21 is fixed to the first window 111 on the side of the main body 1 by the second buckle 221 of the frame 22 and the first buckle 1121 of the main body 1.

[0041] In this embodiment, the body 1 of the drawer 10 is made of an opaque material, such as a high-strength plastic or alloy, which enhances the overall strength of the drawer 10. The transparent window assembly 2 on the side allows light to pass through from both sides of the drawer 10.

[0042] Specifically, the main body 1 includes side walls 11 located on both sides, such as Figure 2 As shown, the sidewall 11 forms the aforementioned first window 111 and a raised rib 112 surrounding the first window 111. The first window 111 and the raised rib 112 are spaced apart, forming a limiting part 113 between them. A first buckle 1121 is disposed on the raised rib 112, and a reinforcing part 1122 is also provided on the side of the raised rib 112 away from the first window 111. In this embodiment, multiple first buckles 1121 are provided, which are spaced apart on the lower side of the top and bottom edges of the raised rib 112. The reinforcing part 1122 is provided corresponding to the position of the first buckle 1121 to strengthen the raised rib 112 and prevent deformation or even damage at the position of the first buckle 1121 when the frame 22 is snapped onto the sidewall 11.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, the transparent window 21 includes a window body 211 and a window edge 212 surrounding the window body 211. The shape of the window body 211 matches the first window 111 and is positioned at the first window 111 to close it. The window edge 212 abuts against the limiting part 113 on the side away from the inside of the drawer 10, and then engages with the first buckle 1121 via the second buckle 221 on the frame 22, so that the transparent window 21 closes the open first window 111, and the window edge 212 of the transparent window 21 is sandwiched between the side wall 11 and the frame 22. The connection structure between the transparent window assembly 2 and the body 1 is on the opaque frame 22 and the body 1, which does not affect the overall appearance of the drawer 10.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , 5As shown, the drawer 10 in this embodiment also includes a transparent front cover 3. The transparent front cover 3 includes a cover body 31, a handle groove 32 connected to the bottom of the cover body 31 and opening downwards, and cover side edges 33 connected to both sides of the cover body 31. The cover side edges 33 are provided with a third buckle 331. The front end of the side wall 11 is provided with a limiting hole 114 corresponding to the third buckle 331. The third buckle 331 is engaged with the limiting hole 114 to realize the connection between the transparent front cover 3 and the body 1.

[0045] The handle groove 32 includes a front wall 321, a rear wall 322, and a bottom wall 323 away from the opening. The top of the front wall 321 is integrated with the bottom of the cover body 31. The bottom of the front wall 321 is higher than the bottom of the bottom wall 323, which makes it convenient to put your hand into the handle groove 32, pull the front wall 321 forward, and open the drawer 10.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the drawer 10 provided in this embodiment also includes a handle decoration 4, which covers the inner and outer sides of the front wall 321, the bottom wall 323, and the rear wall 322 of the handle groove 32. Since the handle groove 32 provides a point of leverage for the user to pull the drawer 10 forward, it is frequently subjected to external forces. The transparent body 1 is usually made of materials such as PS, which are brittle and easily damaged. Therefore, a handle decoration 4 is provided to cover the handle groove 32, thus reducing the force on the handle decoration 4. The handle decoration 4 is preferably made of an opaque material or an alloy, offering high material selectivity. Selecting a material with greater strength than the transparent front cover 3 to process the handle decoration 4 can prevent damage to the handle groove 32.

[0047] like Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the connection between the handle trim 4 and the transparent front cover 3 is as follows: a snap-fit ​​groove 324 is provided on the front side of the transparent front cover 3, and a snap-fit ​​block 41 is provided on the handle trim 4 corresponding to the snap-fit ​​groove 324. The snap-fit ​​block 41 forms a downward-facing first abutment surface 411. Since the handle trim 4 includes the inner and outer sides of the front wall 321, the bottom wall 323, and the rear wall 322 of the handle groove 32, the handle trim 4 can only be installed in the handle groove 32 from bottom to top. The downward-facing first abutment surface 411 on the snap-fit ​​block 41 abuts against the snap-fit ​​groove 324 to prevent the handle trim 4 from sliding down.

[0048] Furthermore, a first limiting block 3221 is provided extending rearward from the bottom of the rear wall 322. The first limiting block 3221 extends backward and upward at an angle and forms a second abutment surface 3222 facing upward. The handle decoration 4 extends backward and then upward from one end close to the bottom of the rear wall 322 and forms a second limiting block 42. The second limiting block 42 extends forward and downward at an angle and forms a third abutment surface 421 facing downward.

[0049] When the handle decoration 4 is installed from bottom to top into the handle groove 32, the inclined surfaces of the first limiting block 3221 and the second limiting block 42 abut against each other until the handle decoration 4 is installed in place. The front end of the handle decoration 4 abuts against the snap groove 324 through the first abutting surface 411, and the rear end abuts against the second abutting surface 3222 through the third abutting surface 421. Both the front and rear are subjected to force to prevent the handle decoration 4 from sliding down.

[0050] This utility model embodiment also provides a refrigeration device including the aforementioned drawer 10, such as... Figure 8 As shown, the refrigeration equipment also includes a cabinet forming a refrigeration compartment and a light source assembly 20. The refrigeration compartment includes a compartment side wall forming the side of the refrigeration compartment. A support member 30 providing a track for the drawer 10 is fixed to the compartment side wall. The support member 30 has a second window 301. Figure 8 The diagram shows the combination of drawer 10, light source assembly 20 and support member 30. The support member 30 is provided with two second windows 301, one above the other. The upper second window 301 is blocked by the light source assembly 20.

[0051] like Figure 10 As shown, the light source assembly 20 includes a mounting box 201, a light source 202, and a transparent element 203. The mounting box 201 is fixed to the support member 30 and has an opening facing the first window 111. The light source 202 is disposed inside the mounting box 201. The transparent element 203 closes the second window 301 on the side away from the drawer 10. The opening of the mounting box 201 covers the second window 301 and simultaneously fixes the transparent element 203 to the support member 30.
