[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present invention.
[0027] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the utility model mainly relates to a refrigerator, which includes a box body 10, a compressor compartment 11 is defined in the box body 10, and a compressor 12 is arranged in the compressor compartment 11. The refrigerator includes a refrigeration system. The refrigeration system includes a compressor 12, a condenser, a throttling component, and an evaporator. The evaporator, as a heat exchange component, will frost when participating in refrigeration work.
[0028] In this embodiment, the refrigerator further comprises an evaporation dish 2 provided in the compressor compartment 11 and having a water storage tank 22, and an evaporation curtain 3 provided on the evaporation dish 2. The defrosting water generated by the evaporator through the heating component is guided into the evaporation dish 2 through the drainage component.
[0029] The evaporation curtain 3 separates the compressor chamber 11 into a first chamber 111 disposed close to the compressor 12 and a second chamber 112 disposed away from the compressor 12. Preferably, the top of the water storage tank 22 is open for communication with a drainage component.
[0030] The evaporation curtain 3 is provided with a through hole 31 connecting the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 112. The high-temperature and high-pressure air formed by the high temperature of the compressor 12 in the first chamber 111 forms convection with the air of normal pressure and normal temperature in the second chamber 112. The through hole 31 is used to convect the air temperature difference on both sides of the evaporation curtain 3 to accelerate the evaporation of water in the water storage tank 22, thereby increasing the evaporation rate.
[0031] Further, the evaporating dish 2 is disposed close to the compressor 12. Preferably, the evaporating dish 2 is disposed adjacent to the compressor 12. The water in the water storage tank 22 is evaporated by the heat of the compressor 12, thereby improving the evaporation efficiency of the evaporating dish 2.
[0032] Furthermore, the housing 10 includes a chamber bottom plate forming a compressor chamber 11. The evaporating dish 2 and the compressor 12 are arranged along the length direction of the chamber bottom plate.
[0033] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the evaporation dish 2 includes a first side wall 212 disposed near the compressor 12 and a second side wall 213 disposed opposite to the first side wall 212. A water storage tank 22 is defined between the first side wall 212 and the second side wall 213.
[0034] The evaporating dish 2 further includes a bottom wall 211 connecting the first side wall 212 and the second side wall 213. The first side wall 212 and the second side wall 213 are formed to extend upward along the length direction of the bottom wall 211. The evaporating dish 2 further includes a third side wall 214 and a fourth side wall 215 that are formed to extend upward along the width direction of the bottom wall 211 and are arranged opposite to each other. The bottom wall 211, the first side wall 212, the second side wall 213, the third side wall 214 and the fourth side wall 215 are collectively arranged to form a water storage tank 22.
[0035] The evaporation curtain 3 is extended upward from the second side wall 213 to dispose the water storage tank 22 in the first chamber 111. The inner wall of the second side wall 213 is provided with a fixing portion for positioning and fixing the evaporation curtain 3.
[0036] Preferably, the fixing portion includes two fixing blocks for fixing the evaporation curtain 3 , and the fixing blocks are formed by bending and extending from the inner wall of the second side wall 213 .
[0037] Combination Figure 3As shown, further, the refrigerator also includes an evaporation block 4 disposed in the water storage tank 22 and extending in the same direction as the evaporation dish 2, and the evaporation block 4 is a U-shaped structure. The evaporation block 4 includes a bottom evaporation block 41 and two side evaporation blocks 42 extending from the bottom evaporation block 41 along the first side wall 212 and the second side wall 213, respectively. The evaporation block 4 increases the evaporation contact area and accelerates the evaporation speed. It is understandable that the evaporation block 4 can also be a straight-line structure or other structures.
[0038] Furthermore, the material of the evaporation block 4 is sponge.
[0039] Furthermore, the end of the bottom evaporation block 41 is a zigzag structure to increase the contact area with the water in the water storage tank 22. It is understandable that the end of the bottom evaporation block 41 can also be a wavy structure or other structures.
[0040] Furthermore, the extension direction of the folded-line structure is consistent with the flow direction of water in the water storage tank 22, which facilitates smooth water flow in the water storage tank 22 and quick contact and fusion of water and the evaporation block 4 to improve evaporation efficiency.
[0041] Furthermore, the evaporating dish 2 includes a plurality of sub-evaporating dishes 23 arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, and the plurality of sub-evaporating dishes 23 are connected in sequence from top to bottom. The sub-evaporating dishes 23 are arranged in the vertical direction to form a vertical evaporating dish 2, which is simple to assemble, simplifies welding, has low production process requirements, and is easy to implement. The sub-evaporating dishes 23 located at the top layer can accelerate the evaporation speed with the help of the upper hot air, thereby improving the evaporation efficiency.
[0042] The number of the evaporation curtains 3 is set to be multiple, and the multiple evaporation curtains 3 are arranged from top to bottom. For two adjacent sub-evaporation dishes 23, the evaporation curtain 3 extends upward from the sub-evaporation dish 23 located at the bottom.
[0043] Combination Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the evaporation dish 2 includes a connecting pipe 24 connecting two adjacent sub-evaporation dishes 23. The water in the upper sub-evaporation dish 23 flows to the lower sub-evaporation dish 23 of the adjacent sub-evaporation dishes 23 to improve the evaporation efficiency.
[0044] Furthermore, the two adjacent connecting pipes 24 are at least partially staggered in the vertical direction to prevent the water in the uppermost sub-evaporation dish 23 from directly flowing into the lowermost sub-evaporation dish 23 .
[0045] Combination Figure 2As shown, further, the evaporating dish 2 includes a fixing seat 25 respectively fixed to the plurality of sub-evaporating dishes 23, and the fixing seat 25 includes a U-shaped U-shaped seat body 251 and a hook 252 clamped on the sub-evaporating dish 23. The U-shaped seat body 251 defines a U-shaped cavity for accommodating the end of the sub-evaporating dish 23. It has the advantage of being easy to install.
[0046] Combination Figure 5 As shown, further, two adjacent sub-evaporation dishes 23, wherein the sub-evaporation dish 23 located at the top is provided with a clamping portion 261 clamped with the connecting pipe 24, and the sub-evaporation dish 23 located at the bottom includes a sleeve portion 262 sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting pipe 24. A plurality of reinforcing rib structures are arranged at intervals on the outer peripheral wall of the sleeve portion 262. The connecting pipe 24 has a clamping groove clamped with the clamping portion 261. During installation, the connecting pipe 24 is first set on the sleeve portion 262, and then installed by clamping the connecting pipe 24 with the clamping portion 261.
[0047] Further, the evaporating dish 2 includes a first end 27 close to the connecting pipe 24 and a second end 28 away from the connecting pipe 24. The bottom wall 211 of the evaporating dish 2 is inclined upward in the direction from the second end 28 to the first end 27. The bottom wall 211 of the evaporating dish 2 is an inclined structure, and the second end 28 away from the connecting pipe 24 is lower than the first end 27, so as to ensure that water can flow to the far end of the water storage tank 22 and accelerate the evaporation speed. When there is a lot of water, it flows downward through the connecting pipe 24.
[0048] Furthermore, the refrigerator further comprises an evaporator, a water receiving tray 51 disposed at the bottom of the evaporator, and a drain pipe 52 connecting the water receiving tray 51 and the water storage tank 22. The defrosted water generated by the evaporator through the heating component is guided into the evaporating dish 2 through the drain pipe 52. The drainage component mentioned above comprises the water receiving tray 51 and the drain pipe 52.
[0049] The bottom end of the drain pipe 52 is disposed toward the water storage tank 22 .
[0050] Compared with the prior art, the refrigerator provided by the utility model sets the evaporation dish 2 in the compressor chamber 11, and the compressor chamber 11 is separated into a first chamber 111 arranged near the compressor 12 and a second chamber 112 arranged away from the compressor 12 by the evaporation curtain 3 arranged on the evaporation dish 2. The evaporation curtain 3 is provided with a through hole 31 connecting the first chamber 111 and the second chamber 112. The high-temperature and high-pressure air formed by the high temperature of the compressor 12 in the first chamber 111 forms convection with the air of the normal air pressure and normal temperature in the second chamber 112. The through hole 31 is used to convect the air temperature difference on both sides of the evaporation curtain 3 to accelerate the evaporation of water in the water storage tank 22, thereby increasing the evaporation rate. It has the advantages of high evaporation rate, high evaporation efficiency, compact structure, and easy implementation.
