[0039] 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.

[0040] An embodiment of the present application provides a door assembly and a refrigerator. In order to more clearly illustrate the structure of the door assembly and the refrigerator, the door assembly and the refrigerator will be introduced below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] In conventional refrigerators, fruits and vegetables are often stacked directly in the refrigerator compartment. Every time you take them out, you need to open the refrigerator to search for them one by one and put them back after taking them out. This frequent taking process is inconvenient for users and wastes their time in today's fast-paced life. In addition, when various ingredients are mixed together, the shelf life of the food is easily confused, which is not conducive to the orderly and effective use of the refrigerator storage space. Figure 1-Figure 3 , Figure 1 The structure of the door assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application is schematically shown Figure 1 , Figure 2 for Figure 1 A front view of the door assembly is shown. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The cross-sectional view of the door assembly along AA is shown. It should be noted that: Figure 1-Figure 3The door body assembly shown only shows a case where the first limiting member is a limiting hole and the second limiting member is a protrusion. The door body assembly 100 provided in the present application includes a door body 10 and a storage portion 20, wherein the door body 10 is provided with an opening 101, and the storage portion 20 includes a storage member 21, wherein the storage member 21 is rotatably installed in the opening 101 and can expose or close the opening 101, and wherein the storage member 21 is provided with a storage groove 211 located in the storage chamber, and the storage groove 211 is used to store food. The door body 10 is provided with a first limiting member 13, and the storage portion 20 is provided with a second limiting member 22, wherein the second limiting member 22 is connected to the storage member 21, and the second limiting member 22 is used to cooperate with the first limiting member 13 to lock or unlock the storage portion 20 and the door body 10. During the use of the door body 10, the user can place food, such as pre-prepared dishes, fruits, etc., in the storage slot 211. When the food needs to be taken out quickly, the user unlocks the second limiter 22 and the first limiter 13, and takes out the food by rotating the storage part 21 set at the opening 101; after the items are taken out, the user re-locks the second limiter 22 and the first limiter 13 to restore the door body 10 and limit the rotation and displacement of the storage part 20 in the width direction of the door body 10. Compared with the prior art, the steps of unlocking and locking the storage part 20 and the door body 10 through the limiter are relatively simple, so that the user can take out the food by rotating the storage part 21 set at the opening 101, which is conducive to improving the efficiency of refrigerator use and saving user time.

[0042] Exemplarily, one of the first limiting member 13 and the second limiting member 22 is a limiting hole, and the other of the first limiting member 13 and the second limiting member 22 is a protrusion 30, and the protrusion 30 is retractably arranged toward the limiting hole, and the protrusion 30 cooperates with the limiting hole to switch the object placement part 20 between the locked state and the unlocked state. The protrusion 30 extends out and is located in the limiting hole so that the object placement part 21 and the door body 10 are in a locked state; in the locked state, the protrusion 30 shrinks and disengages from the limiting hole so that the object placement part 21 and the door body 10 are unlocked. In some embodiments, the first stopper 13 is a stopper hole, the second stopper 22 is a protrusion 30, and when the placement member 21 rotates toward the user, the position of the stopper hole remains unchanged, the protrusion 30 switches from the extended state to the retracted state, and gradually separates from the stopper hole as the placement member 21 rotates; in some embodiments, the first stopper 13 is a protrusion 30, the second stopper 22 is a stopper hole, the position of the protrusion 30 remains unchanged, and the stopper hole separates from the protrusion 30 as the placement member 21 rotates. The protrusion 30 may be a retractable structure, an elastic structure, etc., which is not limited in this application.

[0043] Exemplarily, the protrusion 30 includes a stopper 31 and a spring 32. The object placement part 21 and one of the door body 10 form a telescopic space. The stopper 31 is at least partially disposed in the telescopic space. The spring 32 is disposed in the telescopic space and connected to the stopper 31. The spring 32 is extended to lock or unlock the object placement part 20 and the door body 10. When the spring 32 is extended and the stopper 31 is located in the stopper hole, the object placement part 21 is locked with the door body 10; when the spring 32 is contracted and the stopper 31 is separated from the stopper hole, the object placement part 21 is unlocked with the door body 10. In some embodiments, the limiting hole is provided in the door body 10, the placement piece 21 is provided with the telescopic space, one end of the spring 32 is fixedly connected to the placement piece 21, and the other end is fixed to the limiting block 31; in some embodiments, the limiting hole is provided in the placement piece 20, the door body 10 is provided with the telescopic space, one end of the spring 32 is fixed to the door body 10, and the other end is fixed to the limiting block 31.

The limit block 31 includes a guiding arc surface 311, and the guiding arc surface 311 is located at one end of the limit block 31 away from the spring 32. The guiding arc surface 311 is used to guide the limit block 31 to enter and / or leave the limit hole. When the limit hole and the limit block 31 are misaligned, a large force is required to push the limit block 31 into the corresponding limit hole. Repeated pushing in this way can easily cause damage to the structure. Providing a guiding arc surface 311 on the limit block 31 is conducive to the limit block 31 entering the limit hole or leaving the limit hole, thereby improving the user experience. The limit block 31 can be a conical structure, or a cylindrical structure with a guiding arc surface 311, which is not limited in the present application.

[0045] Exemplarily, the door body 10 includes a periphery forming the opening 101, the periphery includes a bottom wall and a top wall 11 arranged oppositely, the first stopper 13 is arranged on the top wall 11, the storage part 21 includes a first side edge 212 facing the top wall 11, and the second stopper 22 is arranged on the first side edge 212, so that the first stopper 13 and the second stopper 22 cooperate. Specifically, the first stopper 13 is opened at a position close to the top of the storage part 20, and cooperates with the second stopper 22 to complete the locking of the storage part 20. When the user uses it, a thrust can be applied to the bottom of the storage part 21, the storage part 21 is unlocked and the top moves out of the storage chamber, the first side edge 212 and the top wall 11 are misaligned, so that the user can take and put items in the storage slot 211, and the periphery of the door body 10 also includes a bottom edge facing the bottom wall. When the storage part 20 and the door body 10 are locked, the bottom edge and the bottom wall fit together to form a support on the width of the door body 10.

[0046] For example, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 The structure of the door assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application is schematically shown Figure 3 The door body 10 includes a periphery forming the opening 101, the periphery includes two side walls 12 arranged opposite to each other, at least one of the side walls 12 is provided with the first stopper 13, the storage portion 20 also includes two second side edges 213 arranged opposite to each other, each of the second side edges 213 is arranged close to one of the side walls 12, and the second side edge 213 arranged opposite to the side wall 12 provided with the first stopper 13 is provided with the second stopper 22, so that the first stopper 13 and the second stopper 22 cooperate. Specifically, the side wall 12 may include a left side wall located on the left side of the storage portion 21 and a right side wall located on the right side of the storage portion 21, the second side edge 213 arranged close to the left side wall 12 is the left side edge, and the second side edge 213 arranged close to the right side wall is the right side edge, in some embodiments, the left side wall 12 is provided with the first stopper 13, and the left side edge is correspondingly provided with the second stopper 22; in some embodiments, the right side wall 12 is provided with the first stopper 13, and the right side edge is correspondingly provided with the second stopper 22.

[0047] For example, see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is an exploded view of the door assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application.
