Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of low-temperature equipment, in particular to an internal environment control system of a refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] At present, existing low-temperature equipment, such as refrigerators, generally use preset temperature start and stop points and defrost points to control the temperature and humidity of the internal environment. This control logic can neither actively adjust nor predict the upcoming climate changes when the external environment of the refrigerator, such as climate conditions, changes. As a result, it is difficult for the equipment to adapt to environmental changes to provide a more stable and reliable internal environment, which often leads to large fluctuations in temperature and humidity, poor uniformity, and high energy consumption in the refrigerator. At the same time, in order to pursue aesthetics, existing refrigerator displays generally adopt an installation method that is directly embedded in the refrigerator cabinet door. This installation method is not only easy to bump into the display screen during daily use, but also electrostatically absorbs dust on the display screen after the equipment is used for a long time, which is not easy to clean.

[0028] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the utility model provides a refrigerator internal environment control system, including a refrigerator 1, and further comprising:

[0029] The control module 7 is installed inside the refrigerator 1 and is used to adapt and adjust the temperature and humidity parameters of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1 within a preset time period in the future according to the historical / real-time / future meteorological data of the external environment of the current location information of the refrigerator 1;

[0033] A defrosting module 11, connected to and controlled by the control module 7, for adjusting the humidity parameters of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1;

[0034] The sensor 12 includes a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor. The temperature sensor is connected between the control module 7 and the refrigeration module 10 to collect temperature data of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1 in real time. The humidity sensor is connected between the control module 7 and the defrosting module 11 to collect humidity data of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1 in real time.

[0035] The display 2 is installed on the cabinet door of the refrigerator 1 and is used to display the current working status of the refrigeration module 10, the current working status of the defrosting module 11 and the temperature and humidity data of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1 in real time.

[0036] In the utility model, according to the meteorological data of the external environment of the geographical area where the positioning device is currently located, the internal environment data of the refrigerator within a preset time period in the future is comprehensively predicted, the working mode of the refrigeration module and the defrosting module inside the refrigerator is controlled and corrected, and the temperature and humidity parameters of the internal environment of the refrigerator are automatically adapted and adjusted, so as to improve the adaptability of the device to the external environment, ensure the stable operation of the internal environment of the device, and provide a stable, uniform, energy-saving and optimal working state;

[0037] When the device is connected to the Internet, the IoT module is used to read online the real-time and future meteorological data of the device's current geographical area. When the device is not connected to the Internet, the storage module is used to call and read the historical meteorological data of the device's current geographical area, realizing full-time pre-control in both online and offline states, and improving the flexibility and reliability of equipment regulation.

[0038] See also Figure 1 In this embodiment, the meteorological data includes wind speed, wind direction, temperature, cloud cover, cloud base height, ground pressure, relative humidity, precipitation and precipitation type. With this design, the current geographical location of the refrigerator 1 is determined according to its positioning information. When the device is connected to the Internet, the real-time and future meteorological data of the current area are read online using the IoT module 9. When the device is not connected to the Internet, the historical meteorological data of the current area is directly read using the storage module 8. In this way, the system integrates historical meteorological data, real-time meteorological data or future meteorological data, especially temperature data and humidity data, to adapt and adjust the temperature and humidity parameters of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1 within a preset time period in the future to ensure that the internal environment of the device is more stable and reliable.

[0039] See also Figure 1 In this embodiment, the IoT module 9 is connected to the storage module 8 to transmit historical meteorological data of various regions in the world for more than 10 years to the storage module 8. With this design, when the device is connected to the Internet, the historical meteorological data of more than 10 years in the geographical area corresponding to the positioning of the refrigerator 1 is uploaded to the storage module 8, so that when the device is not connected to the Internet, the historical meteorological data can be directly read from the storage module 8, and the local meteorological laws can be summarized based on the historical meteorological data, so as to predict the climate conditions at present and in the future, so as to adaptively adjust the temperature and humidity parameters of the internal environment of the refrigerator 1, making the regulation more flexible and reliable.

[0040] See also Figure 2-3In this embodiment, it also includes a frame 3, a shield 4 and a mounting plate 5. A groove is provided on the cabinet door of the refrigerator 1. The frame 3 is inlaid and fixed along the four sides of the groove. The mounting plate 5 is built into the cabinet door of the refrigerator 1 and corresponds to the groove. The display 2 is inlaid on the mounting plate 5 and is presented through the frame 3. A hollow interlayer 6 is left between the frame 3 and the mounting plate 5. The shield 4 is sandwiched in the hollow interlayer 6 and can slide up and down along the hollow interlayer 6. With this design, the shield 4 can slide up along the hollow interlayer 6 to block the display 2 or slide down to display the display 2. In this way, there is no need to expose the display 2 on the cabinet door of the refrigerator 1 all the time. The shield 4 can slide up to protect the display 2 and its screen during idle time or in harsh environments.

[0041] See also Figure 2-3 In this embodiment, a stop bar 401 is fixed in the center of the top of the front of the shield 4. The stop bar 401 is horizontally arranged and slidably engaged with the frame 3. A magnetic strip 301 is horizontally fixed to the inner wall at the top of the frame 3. The stop bar 401 can be fixed by adsorption to the magnetic strip 301. With this design, under the limited engagement of the stop bar 401 and the frame 3, the shield 4 can slide up and down stably along the frame 3 in the hollow interlayer 6, and when the shield 4 slides up to block the screen of the display 2, the stop bar 401 is fixed by adsorption to the magnetic strip 301 to prevent the shield 4 from loosening and falling off.

[0042] See also Figure 2-3 In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the shield 4 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the display 2. The front side of the shield 4 is attached to the frame 3, and the back side is attached to the mounting plate 5. The back side of the shield 4 is covered with a cleaning layer 402, and the cleaning layer 402 can slide and fit to the screen of the display 2. With this design, there is no need to set up a mounting structure of a slide rail or a slide groove. The shield 4 only needs to be clamped in the hollow interlayer 6. Under the engagement and matching of the stop bar 401 and the frame 3, the shield 4 will not be separated from the frame 3, and slides up and down closely against the screen of the display 2. The mounting structure is simpler and more convenient. While the shield 4 slides to block or present the display 2, it also uses the cleaning layer 402 to clean the screen of the display 2. The cleaning layer 402 is selected in a replaceable mounting form, such as a cleaning soft cloth in the form of Velcro, which is convenient for periodic replacement and arrangement.

[0043] In summary, in the present invention, on the one hand, according to the meteorological data of the external environment of the geographical area where the positioning device is currently located, the internal environment data of the refrigerator within a preset time period in the future is comprehensively predicted, the working mode of the refrigeration module and the defrost module inside the refrigerator is controlled and corrected, and the temperature and humidity parameters of the internal environment of the refrigerator are automatically adapted and adjusted, so as to improve the adaptability of the device to the external environment, ensure the stable operation of the internal environment of the device, and provide a stable, uniform, energy-saving optimal working state. When the device is connected to the Internet, the Internet of Things module is used to read the real-time and future meteorological data of the geographical area where the device is currently located online. When the device is not connected to the Internet, the storage module is used to call and read the historical meteorological data of the geographical area where the device is currently located, so as to realize the full-time pre-control in the online and offline states, and improve the flexibility and reliability of the equipment regulation.

[0044] On the other hand, there is no need to set up a mounting structure of a slide rail or a slide groove. It is only necessary to clamp the shield plate in the hollow interlayer. When the stop bar and the frame are engaged, the shield plate will not be separated from the frame and will slide up and down close to the screen of the display. The mounting structure is simpler and more convenient. Not only does it not need to expose the display to the cabinet door of the refrigerator all the time, but the shield plate can be slid up to protect the display and its screen during idle time or in harsh environments. The cleaning layer can also be used to clean the display screen.

[0045] It should be understood that the examples and implementation modes described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or changes based on the examples and implementation modes.
