[0003] In order to solve this problem, various forms of folding shelves have appeared on the market; however, the operation process is relatively cumbersome, which affects the user's satisfaction. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a shelf structure and a refrigerator, aiming to reduce the complexity of operating the shelf structure.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the shelf structure proposed by the utility model includes:

[0006] Mounting frame;

[0007] A rotating shelf, rotatably disposed on the mounting frame;

[0008] A sliding shelf, slidably mounted on the mounting frame, wherein the sliding shelf has a first position and a second position in a sliding direction thereof;

[0009] Wherein, a supporting protrusion is provided on the mounting frame, the top surface of the supporting protrusion is provided in a plane, and a supporting rib is provided on the sliding shelf. When the sliding shelf is located at the first position, the top surface of the supporting protrusion supports the supporting rib; when the sliding shelf is located at the second position, the sliding shelf is stored in the rotating shelf and can be flipped together with the rotating shelf.

[0010] In one embodiment, when the sliding shelf is located at the first position, the rotating shelf is flush with the sliding shelf.

[0011] In one embodiment, when the sliding shelf is located at the first position, a gap is provided between the rotating shelf and the sliding shelf.

[0012] In one embodiment, when the sliding shelf is located at the second position, the sliding shelf is stacked on a lower side of the rotating shelf.

[0013] In one embodiment, the supporting protrusion is provided with a first guiding surface, and the first guiding surface is used to guide the supporting rib to the top surface of the supporting protrusion.

[0014] In one embodiment, the supporting rib is provided with a second guiding surface, and the second guiding surface is used to guide the supporting rib to the top surface of the supporting protrusion.

[0015] In one embodiment, two support frames arranged opposite to each other on the installation frame are each provided with a guide rail slot, and opposite sides of the sliding shelf are respectively slidably arranged in the two guide rail slots.

[0016] In one embodiment, the lower groove wall of the guide rail slide groove includes a support section, a guide section and a track section connected thereby, the support section is arranged away from the rotating shelf, the guide section is inclined downward in a direction close to the track section, and the support section is used to support the side of the sliding shelf away from the rotating shelf.

[0017] In one embodiment, sliding ribs slidably matched with the guide rail grooves are respectively provided on opposite sides of the sliding shelf.

[0018] In one embodiment, a slot is provided at one end of the sliding rib away from the rotating shelf, and a latching protrusion matched with the slot is provided on the supporting section.

[0019] In one embodiment, a supporting rib is provided on opposite sides of the installation frame, respectively, and the supporting rib is connected to the lower groove wall of the guide rail sliding groove, and the two supporting ribs are used to support opposite sides of the rotating shelf.

[0020] In one embodiment, the support rib and the lower groove wall of the guide rail sliding groove are connected via a transition rib, and the transition rib is inclined downward in a direction close to the support rib.

[0021] In one embodiment, the rotating shelf is provided with a storage slide on two opposite sides in the sliding direction of the sliding shelf, and when the sliding shelf is in the second position, the opposite sides of the sliding shelf are at least partially placed in the storage slide.

[0022] The utility model also provides a refrigerator, comprising the above shelf structure.

[0023] The technical solution of the utility model is to rotatably arrange the rotating shelf on the installation frame, and make the sliding shelf slidably installed on the installation frame, and the sliding shelf has a first position and a second position in its sliding direction. Specifically, when the sliding shelf is in the first position, the sliding shelf is in an unfolded state relative to the rotating shelf, and the top surfaces of the sliding shelf and the rotating shelf can be used to place items. If it is necessary to increase the placement height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure, for example but not limited to when a small number of items with larger heights need to be placed, the sliding shelf can be slid by sliding so that the sliding shelf slides to the second position to be stacked and stored on the rotating shelf, so as to be used for placing items with larger heights. At the same time, the top surface of the rotating shelf and the storage surface on the lower side of the rotating shelf can also be used to place other items with smaller heights. Secondly, when there are many items with large heights that need to be placed, that is, when it is necessary to increase the placement height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure to a larger range, the sliding shelf in the second position can be turned over together with the rotating shelf, thereby further increasing the range of the storage height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure. It can be seen that this shelf structure can make the use of the storage space of equipment such as refrigerators more flexible. Moreover, the shelf structure only needs two steps to flexibly adjust the height of the placement space. It can be seen that the shelf structure of this solution is easy to operate, thereby improving the user's satisfaction. In this solution, the top surface of the supporting protrusion is set in a plane, so that when the sliding shelf is in the first position and the top surface of the supporting protrusion supports the supporting rib, the probability of the supporting rib moving on the supporting protrusion can be reduced, thereby increasing the stability of the supporting protrusion supporting the supporting rib.

[0038] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0039] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...), the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0040] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the utility model, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features limited to "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, if "and / or" or "and / or" appears in the full text, its meaning includes three parallel solutions. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes solution A, solution B, or solutions that satisfy both A and B. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the utility model.

[0041] The shelf structure is not limited to refrigerators, but can also be used in other equipment with shelves, such as disinfection cabinets, independently arranged shelves, etc. For the convenience of description, the shelf structure is set in a refrigerator as an example for description.

[0042] Due to the influence of the height between the shelves in the refrigerator, when refrigerating objects that are higher than the shelf height, one can only take the method of removing one shelf to place the objects. In order to solve the problem that the removal and installation of the shelves bring many inconveniences to the use, various forms of folding shelves have appeared on the market, but the operation process of the folding shelves is relatively cumbersome, which affects the user's satisfaction.

[0043] The utility model provides a shelf structure.

[0044] Shelving, also known as shelves, shelves or storage racks, is an important part of the refrigerator interior and is used to separate and store different types of food and drinks.

[0045] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the utility model, the shelf structure includes a mounting frame 100, a rotating shelf 200 and a sliding shelf 300, wherein the rotating shelf 200 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 100; the sliding shelf 300 is slidably mounted on the mounting frame 100, and the sliding shelf 300 has a first position and a second position in its sliding direction; wherein a supporting protrusion 110 is arranged on the mounting frame 100, and the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110 is arranged in a plane, and a supporting rib 310 is arranged on the sliding shelf 300, and when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the first position, the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110 supports the supporting rib 310; when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the second position, the sliding shelf 300 is stored in the rotating shelf 200 and can be flipped together with the rotating shelf 200.

[0046] The technical solution of the utility model is that the rotating shelf 200 is rotatably arranged on the installation frame 100, and the sliding shelf 300 is slidably installed on the installation frame 100, and the sliding shelf 300 has a first position and a second position in its sliding direction. Specifically, when the sliding shelf 300 is in the first position, the sliding shelf 300 is in an unfolded state relative to the rotating shelf 200, and the top surfaces of the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200 can be used to place items. If it is necessary to increase the placement height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure, for example but not limited to the need to place a small number of large items (the height is greater than the distance between the shelf structure and the storage surface) When there are items separated from the shelf 300, the sliding shelf 300 can be slid to the second position by sliding so that the sliding shelf 300 can be slid to the second position to be stacked and stored on the rotating shelf 200. At this time, the position on the mounting frame 100 corresponding to the first position of the sliding shelf 300 is hollowed out, thereby increasing the storage height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure and the position corresponding to the first position of the sliding shelf 300, so that items with larger heights can be placed. At the same time, the top surface of the rotating shelf 200 and the storage surface on the lower side of the rotating shelf 200 can also be used to place other smaller items (items with a height less than the distance between the shelf structure and the storage surface) respectively.

[0047] Secondly, when there are many items of larger height to be placed, that is, when it is necessary to increase the placement height of a larger range of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure, the sliding shelf 300 in the second position can be flipped together with the rotating shelf 200. At this time, the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200 are in an upright state relative to the installation frame 100. At this time, the storage height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure is basically increased. It can be seen that this shelf structure can make the use of the storage space of the refrigerator more flexible, and the shelf structure can flexibly adjust the height of the storage space through only two steps of sliding and flipping. It can be seen that the shelf structure of this solution is easy to operate, thereby improving user satisfaction.

[0048] In this solution, the top surface of the support protrusion 110 is set to be flat, so that when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the first position and the top surface of the support protrusion 110 supports the support rib 310, the probability of the support rib 310 moving on the support protrusion 110 can be reduced, thereby increasing the stability of the support protrusion 110 supporting the support rib 310.

[0049] In this embodiment, when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the first position, the rotating shelf 200 is flush with the sliding shelf 300. It can be understood that when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the first position, that is, when the sliding shelf 300 is in the unfolded state, the rotating shelf 200 is flush with the sliding shelf 300, that is, the rotating shelf 200 and the sliding shelf are on the same horizontal line, which can avoid the formation of a step between the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200, thereby avoiding the possibility of the stored items being placed between the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200 and tipping over due to imbalance.

[0050] In other embodiments, when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the first position, the rotating shelf 200 and the sliding shelf 300 may not be on the same horizontal line, and in the vertical direction, the sliding shelf 300 is partially stacked with the rotating shelf 200, or there is no stacking portion between the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200.

[0051] Reference Figure 7 Optionally, when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the second position, the sliding shelf 300 is stacked on the lower side of the rotating shelf 200, so that the sliding of the sliding shelf 300 does not affect the top surface position of the sliding shelf 300, so that when the sliding shelf 300 slides to the second position, it can be carried out without moving the items placed on the top surface of the rotating shelf 200, thereby improving the convenience of the shelf structure operation. Of course, the utility model is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the second position, the sliding shelf 300 can also be stacked and stored on the upper side of the rotating shelf 200.

[0052] Optionally, in this embodiment, when the sliding shelf 300 is located at the first position, a gap is provided between the rotating shelf 200 and the sliding shelf 300. It can be understood that the setting of the gap between the rotating shelf 200 and the sliding shelf 300 can allow the supporting rib 310 to move downward when the sliding shelf 300 slides toward the second position, thereby avoiding interference between the supporting protrusion 110 and the supporting rib 310 moving downward, thereby making the movement of the sliding shelf 300 smoother. Of course, the utility model is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, an avoidance space can also be provided at a position where the mounting frame 100 is away from the rotating shelf 200 and cooperates with the sliding shelf 300, so that the side of the sliding shelf 300 away from the rotating shelf 200 is tilted upward, so that the side of the sliding shelf 300 close to the rotating shelf 200 is tilted downward, so as to slide toward the second position.

[0053] Reference Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Fig.10Further, in one embodiment, the supporting protrusion 110 is provided with a first guiding surface 111, and the first guiding surface 111 is used to guide the supporting rib 310 to the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110; specifically, the first guiding surface 111 is provided on a side of the supporting protrusion 110 close to the rotating shelf 200, and in the direction close to the rotating shelf 200, the first guiding surface 111 is inclined downward, so that the supporting rib 310 can be guided to slide to the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110, so that the supporting rib 310 can run smoother along the supporting protrusion 110, so that the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110 supports the supporting rib 310, thereby achieving the purpose of supporting the sliding shelf 300.

[0054] In the second embodiment, the supporting rib 310 is provided with a second guiding surface 311, and the second guiding surface 311 is used to guide the supporting rib 310 to the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110; specifically, the second guiding surface 311 is provided on the side of the supporting rib 310 away from the rotating shelf 200. Specifically, when the sliding shelf 300 is in the first position, the second guiding surface 311 is located on the side of the supporting rib 310 away from the rotating shelf 200, and the second guiding surface 311 is inclined downward in the direction close to the rotating shelf 200, so that the supporting rib 310 can be guided to slide to the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110, so that the running of the supporting rib 310 along the supporting protrusion 110 is smoother, and the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110 supports the supporting rib 310, so as to achieve the purpose of supporting the sliding shelf 300.

[0055] In this embodiment, the support protrusion 110 is provided with a first guide surface 111, and the support rib 310 is provided with a second guide surface 311, so that the first guide surface 111 and the second guide surface 311 can guide each other, thereby making the support rib 310 slide to the top surface of the support protrusion 110 more smoothly.

[0056] Optionally, the two support frames 120 disposed opposite to each other on the installation frame 100 are each provided with a guide rail slot 121, and the two opposite sides of the sliding shelf 300 are respectively slidably disposed in the two guide rail slots 121. Such a sliding structure is simple in structure and easy to manufacture. Of course, the utility model is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the two support frames 120 disposed opposite to each other on the installation frame 100 are each provided with a sliding rib, and the two opposite sides of the sliding shelf 300 are respectively provided with sliding grooves corresponding to the sliding ribs, and the sliding ribs are slidably disposed in the sliding grooves.

[0057] Among them, the lower groove wall of the guide rail slide groove 121 includes a support section 121a, a guide section 121b and a track section 121c connected thereby, the support section 121a is arranged away from the rotating shelf 200, and the guide section 121b is arranged to be inclined downward in the direction close to the track section 121c, and the support section 121a is used to support the side of the sliding shelf 300 away from the rotating shelf 200. Specifically, the support section 121a is used to support the side of the sliding shelf 300 away from the rotating shelf 200, and the support protrusion 110 supports the support rib 310, so as to achieve the effect of supporting the side of the sliding shelf 300 close to the rotating shelf 200. Such a support structure is simple and easy to process and manufacture. Moreover, the support section 121a is arranged on the groove wall of the guide rail groove 121 to support the sliding shelf 300, that is, the support member is buried in the support frame 120. Compared with the solution of arranging a protruding support member at the end of the support frame 120 away from the rotating shelf 200 to support the sliding shelf, the risk of users being injured by colliding with the protruding support member when taking and placing items can be avoided. Of course, the present invention is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, the support frame 120 may also be provided with a protruding support protrusion at the end away from the rotating shelf 200, and the sliding shelf 300 is provided with a support protrusion corresponding to the support protrusion. The support protrusion supports the support protrusion, thereby achieving the purpose of supporting the sliding shelf 300 away from the side of the rotating shelf 200.

[0058] Furthermore, the two opposite sides of the sliding shelf 300 are respectively provided with sliding ribs 320 that are slidably matched with the guide rail slots 121. Such a sliding shelf 300 has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. Of course, the utility model is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, the two opposite side edges of the sliding shelf 300 can also be directly slidably set in the guide rail slots 121.

[0059] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6Optionally, one end of the sliding rib 320 away from the rotating shelf 200 is engaged with the support segment 121a. This is because the installation and disassembly methods of the engagement are simple. When the sliding rib 320 slides to the engagement structure of the support segment 121a, the sliding rib 320 is automatically engaged with the support segment 121a. This connection method is simple and does not require any extra operations, thereby reducing the complexity of the operation of the expanded state of the sliding shelf 300. Moreover, by engaging the one end of the sliding rib 320 away from the rotating shelf 200 with the support segment 121a, the stability of the expanded state of the sliding shelf 300 can be increased, thereby preventing the sliding shelf 300 from sliding when placing items. Of course, the present invention is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, the side wall of the guide rail slot 121 facing the rotating shelf 200 and the end surface of the sliding rib 320 away from the rotating shelf 200 can also be magnetically connected, that is, the side wall of the guide rail slot 121 intersecting with the sliding direction of the sliding shelf 300 and the end surface of the sliding rib 320 away from the rotating shelf 200 are magnetically connected.

[0060] Furthermore, a slot 321 is provided at one end of the sliding rib 320 away from the rotating shelf 200, and a protrusion 121d is provided on the support section 121a to cooperate with the slot 321. Such a simple engaging structure can be used to hook the slot wall of the slot 321 on the protrusion 121d to prevent the sliding shelf 300 from sliding toward the second position, thereby increasing the stability of the unfolded state of the sliding shelf 300. Of course, the utility model is not limited thereto. In some other embodiments, a protrusion is provided at one end of the sliding rib 320 away from the rotating shelf 200, and a groove is provided on the support section 121a to cooperate with the protrusion, and the protrusion is locked in the groove.

[0061] It should be noted that, in the vertical direction, the minimum width of the guide rail groove 121 is greater than the thickness of the sliding rib 320 , so that when the locking protrusion 121d and the locking groove 321 are unlocked and locked, the guide rail groove 121 can allow the sliding rib 320 to avoid it.

[0062] Specifically, when the sliding shelf 300 is in the first position, the distance from the upper groove wall of the guide rail groove 121 to the top of the protrusion 121d is greater than or equal to the thickness of the position where the sliding rib 320 is provided with the groove 321, thereby ensuring that the engaging state of the protrusion 121d and the groove 321 is unlocked.

[0063] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9Optionally, a support rib 130 is provided on opposite sides of the installation frame 100, and the support rib 130 is connected to the lower groove wall of the guide rail slot 121. The two support ribs 130 are used to support opposite sides of the rotating shelf 200. It can be understood that the setting of the support rib 130 can support the rotating shelf 200 to improve the stability of the rotating shelf 200 for placing items. Of course, the utility model is not limited to this. In other embodiments, support protrusions are provided on opposite sides of the installation frame 100, and the top surface of the support protrusions is used to support opposite sides of the rotating shelf 200.

[0064] Furthermore, the support rib 130 and the lower groove wall of the guide rail groove 121 are connected by a transition rib 140, and the transition rib 140 is inclined downward in the direction close to the support rib 130, so that the sliding shelf 300 can be guided to enter or move out of the rotating shelf 200, thereby improving the smoothness of the sliding shelf 300.

[0065] Reference Figure 4 and Fig. 9 Optionally, the rotating shelf 200 is provided with a storage slide 210 on each of the opposite sides in the sliding direction of the sliding shelf 300. When the sliding shelf 300 is in the second position, the opposite sides of the sliding shelf 300 are at least partially placed in the storage slide 210. Providing the storage slide 210 on the rotating shelf 200 can enable the sliding shelf 300 to slide into the storage slide 210 when sliding the guide rail to be integrated with the rotating shelf 200, thereby following the rotating shelf 200 to flip. Such a structure is simple and easy to operate.

[0066] Increasing the storage space storage layer of the refrigerator and the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure only requires two steps. Specifically, when increasing the storage height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure, first slide the sliding shelf 300 located at the first position toward the second position, and when the sliding shelf 300 enters the storage slide 210, push the rotating shelf 200 to flip the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200, so that the storage height of the storage surface on the lower side of the shelf structure is increased. When it is necessary to increase the storage space of the refrigerator, first flip the upright sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200, so that the rotating shelf 200 and the sliding shelf 300 are placed in the installation frame 100 as a whole, and then slide the sliding shelf 300 toward the first position, so that the locking protrusion 121d of the guide rail slide is locked into the locking groove 321 on the sliding rib 320, and the top surface of the supporting protrusion 110 supports the supporting rib 310 of the sliding shelf 300, so that the sliding shelf 300 is stably located in the first position, so that the top surfaces of the sliding shelf 300 and the rotating shelf 200 can be used to place items, and when the sliding shelf 300 is located on the storage slide 210 of the rotating partition rib and is not flipped, the top surface of the rotating shelf 200 can also be used to place items, thereby increasing the storage space of the refrigerator.

[0067] The utility model also proposes a refrigerator, which includes a shelf structure. The specific structure of the shelf structure refers to the above-mentioned embodiments. Since the refrigerator adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be described one by one here.

[0068] The shelf is snap-fitted with the cavity wall of the placement cavity. This is because the snap-fit ​​installation method is easy to operate, can improve the installation efficiency of the shelf structure, and does not require additional fasteners, which can avoid the problem of fastener loss after disassembly.
