[0032] See also Figure 1-2 The present application proposes a wine cabinet with a ventilation slot seat on the side wall, comprising a shell 1, an air inlet 101 is arranged at the lower part of the side wall of the shell 1, a ventilation slot seat 2 is arranged at the air inlet 101, a fan 3 and a microchannel condenser 4 are arranged on the side of the bottom of the shell 1 close to the air inlet 101; wherein, a fixing plate 5 is also arranged in the shell 1, one side of the ventilation slot seat 2 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 5, and the other side is fixedly connected to the side wall of the shell 1, and a plurality of air inlet holes are arranged on the side of the ventilation slot seat 2 close to the air inlet 101.
[0033] The ventilation slot seat 2 is located at the lower part of the side wall of the wine cabinet, and works together with the air inlet 101, the fan 3 and the condenser to form an effective air inlet channel. The condenser product has a microchannel, and the side air inlet blows directly into the microchannel. Compared with the bottom and back hanging, the heat dissipation efficiency is higher. The low air inlet effect at the lower part of the side wall can disperse the dissipated hot air more grounded, avoiding discomfort caused by large-area heat dissipation at the bottom when customers open the door to take red wine.
[0034] The ventilation slot seat 2 is located opposite to the microchannel condenser 4, and wind entering will be directly sucked in front of the microchannel condenser 4, with basically no loss of air volume; and the ventilation slot seat 2 has a good appearance effect, and does not affect the appearance of the bottom of the box product after the door is opened and closed due to the large space for air intake, and at the same time forms a hidden air inlet 101.
[0035] The ventilation slot seat 2 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 5 and the side wall of the wine cabinet, which enhances the overall structural stability of the wine cabinet and ensures that the ventilation slot seat 2 is not easily deformed or displaced by external forces during use, which helps to maintain the long-term heat dissipation effect and operational reliability of the wine cabinet; based on the above two fixing methods, snap-on and foaming pressing and bonding are used, which does not affect the aesthetics of the product, improves installation efficiency and production efficiency, and avoids the use of screwing solutions.
[0036] The microchannel condenser 4 is composed of some thin aluminum sheets with small gaps. The fan 3 is preferably installed in the leeward side of the microchannel condenser 4. All the wind sucked by the fan 3 will pass through the microchannel condenser 4. The steel wire and back-hanging condensers cannot achieve the above effect. The air enters the microchannel condenser 4 through the ventilation slot seat 2 from the side, and the heat dissipation efficiency is higher than that of the bottom and back-hanging.
[0037] The low air intake effect at the bottom can disperse the dissipated hot air more grounded, avoiding discomfort caused by large-area heat dissipation at the bottom when customers open the door to take out red wine.
[0038] It can be understood that the ventilation slot seat 2 can also be used in refrigeration devices such as refrigerators, beef cabinets or cigar cabinets. In the refrigeration system, technical personnel in this field can make a choice according to actual needs. For example, the gaseous refrigerant at normal temperature and pressure can be compressed into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant by the compressor 6. The condenser converts the gaseous refrigerant delivered by the compressor 6 into a high-pressure liquid refrigerant, and then delivers it to the throttle valve for throttling and reducing the pressure. After the throttle valve reduces the pressure, the liquid refrigerant is delivered to the evaporator, and the evaporator is used to perform heat exchange treatment on the back of the wine cabinet. During the heat exchange process, the evaporator converts the liquid refrigerant into a gaseous refrigerant, and delivers the gaseous refrigerant to the compressor 6 for circulating refrigeration.
[0039] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the ventilation slot seat 2 is provided with a first annular convex strip 201 and a second annular convex strip 202 on one side close to the fixing plate 5, and a fixing groove is formed between the first annular convex strip 201 and the second annular convex strip 202; Figure 4 As shown, the fixing plate 5 is correspondingly provided with a fixing ring 501. Figure 5 As shown, the fixing ring 501 is fixed in the fixing groove.
[0040] By providing the first annular ridge 201 and the second annular ridge 202, and cooperating with the fixing ring 501 on the fixing plate 5, the connection between the ventilation slot seat 2 and the fixing plate 5 is tighter and stronger, which can effectively prevent the ventilation slot seat 2 from shifting or deforming due to external force during use, thereby ensuring the overall structural stability of the wine cabinet.
[0041] Optionally, after the fixing ring 501 is fixed in the fixing groove, a foaming treatment is performed. During foaming, the fixing plate 5 can press the ventilation groove seat 2. The foaming treatment can form a foam layer with good thermal insulation performance between the fixing ring 501 and the fixing groove, which helps to reduce the loss of cold air in the wine cabinet.
[0042] In some embodiments, the fixing ring 501 is wrapped with sponge and then fixed in the fixing groove.
[0043] As a soft and elastic material, the sponge can fit tightly on the wall of the fixing groove to form an effective sealing layer to prevent cold air from leaking through the gap between the fixing ring 501 and the fixing groove, thereby improving the heat preservation performance of the wine cabinet.
[0044] Furthermore, the elasticity of the sponge can compensate for the size difference between the fixing ring 501 and the fixing groove to a certain extent, so that the fixing ring 501 can be more stably fixed in the fixing groove, thereby ensuring the long-term stability of the ventilation groove seat 2 structure.
[0045] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the side of the ventilation slot seat 2 close to the air inlet 101 is provided with a buckle portion 203 and a limit plate 204. After assembly, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the side wall of the housing 1 close to the air inlet 101 is located between the buckle portion 203 and the limiting plate 204 .
[0046] During installation, the housing 1 is first moved from the top to the bottom of the ventilation slot seat 2 , and then the housing 1 is fixed between the buckle portion 203 and the limiting plate 204 .
[0047] The tight fit between the buckle portion 203 and the limiting plate 204 and the side wall of the shell 1 further ensures the accuracy and stability of the installation of the ventilation slot seat 2, and can effectively prevent the ventilation slot seat 2 from deflecting or shaking during the installation process, ensuring that its connection with the shell 1 is firm and reliable.
[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the buckle portion 203 includes an inclined surface 2031, and the inclined surface 2031 extends outward from top to bottom.
[0049] The design of the inclined surface 2031 allows the ventilation slot seat 2 to be more smoothly inserted into the corresponding position of the shell 1 during the installation process. The inclined surface 2031 extends outward from top to bottom, so that the ventilation slot seat 2 can gradually slide in along the inclined surface 2031 during installation, and preliminary positioning can be achieved without precise alignment, thereby reducing the difficulty of installation and improving installation efficiency.
[0050] Usually, the thickness of the shell 1 is 0.5 mm. If the plate is too thin and the slope is not enough, it is easy to get stuck during installation. The deformation of the buckle is 1.5-2 mm, which can ensure that the shell 1 can be installed even if there is a processing deviation problem.
[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the buckle portion 203 further includes a rounded surface 2032 , and the rounded surface 2032 is located at the bottom of the inclined surface 2031 .
[0052] The rounded surface 2032 is located at the bottom of the inclined surface 2031. Its existence enables the shell 1 to slide more smoothly into the predetermined position of the ventilation slot seat 2 during the installation process, making the installation process easier and reducing the resistance during installation.
[0053] In addition, the rounded shape of the fillet surface 2032 can reduce damage to the ventilation slot seat 2 and the side walls of the shell 1. During the installation process, the fillet surface 2032 can buffer the collision between the ventilation slot seat 2 and the shell 1, preventing sharp edges or angles from scratching or damaging the structure, thereby extending the service life of the product.
[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the ventilation slot seat 2 includes four buckle portions 203 , and the four buckle portions 203 are respectively located around the side wall of the ventilation slot seat 2 .
[0055] The four buckle parts 203 are evenly distributed around the side wall of the ventilation slot seat 2, which can achieve all-round fixation of the ventilation slot seat 2. This fixing method is more stable than a single or a few fixing points, and can effectively prevent the ventilation slot seat 2 from shifting or shaking during use, ensuring smooth air intake.
[0056] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the side wall of the ventilation slot seat 2 is provided with a plurality of reinforcing ribs 205 .
[0057] The presence of the reinforcing ribs 205 significantly enhances the structural strength of the side walls of the ventilation slot seat 2. These reinforcing ribs 205 are like support beams in a skeletal system, providing additional support and stability for the ventilation slot seat 2, allowing it to remain stable and not deformed when facing external pressure or impact.
[0058] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, a compressor 6 is also provided at the bottom of the housing 1 , and the compressor 6 is fixed to the bottom of the housing 1 through a shock absorbing member 7 .
[0059] The compressor 6 is the core component of the wine cabinet, but its operation is often accompanied by noise and vibration. The addition of shock-absorbing parts 7, such as rubber pads, springs, etc., can effectively absorb and reduce the vibration generated by the compressor 6, thereby reducing the noise level and creating a quieter use environment for users.
[0060] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the shock absorbing member 7 is provided with a plurality of fixing holes 701 , and the shock absorbing member 7 can be fixed to the bottom of the housing 1 by passing the fixing members through the fixing holes 701 .
[0061] The combination of the fixing hole 701 and the fixing piece makes the installation of the shock absorber 7 simple and quick. The fixing piece can be a screw, etc. The operator only needs to pass the fixing piece through the fixing hole 701 and then fix it to the bottom of the shell 1 without using complicated tools or making cumbersome adjustments.
[0062] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. Such modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
