[0101] For example, the refrigerator may fall during transportation. By arranging the light bar 41 in the middle of the protection groove 43, effective protection of the light bar 41 is achieved, thereby reducing the risk of the lamp beads being squeezed and damaged.

[0102] Combination Figure 2 As shown, optionally, along the height direction of the door body 20 , the light bar 41 is close to the lower end of the protection groove 43 .

[0103] Combination Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, along the direction in which the light panel assembly 40 is inserted into the slot 24 , the support bar 42 and the slot 24 are gradually contracted.

[0104] In this embodiment, along the direction in which the lamp board assembly 40 is inserted into the slot 24 (eg Figure 4 (in the direction of the straight arrow in the figure), the support bar 42 and the slot 24 are gradually contracted, which facilitates the plug-in cooperation between the support bar 42 and the slot 24, and provides convenience for the installation and maintenance of the light panel assembly 40.

[0105] Combination Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the slot 24 is located on one side of the light guide assembly 30 , and the slot 24 extends along the height direction of the door body 20 .

[0106] In this embodiment, the slot 24 is located on one side of the light guide assembly 30 and extends along the height direction of the door body 20, which can reduce the space occupied by the light panel assembly 40 on the door body 20, thereby reducing the impact on the thickness of the foam layer of the door body 20.

[0107] In this embodiment, the slot 24 extends along the height direction of the door body 20, so that the light panel assembly 40 can be individually vertically inserted, so that the size of the light panel assembly 40 itself and the space required for installation are very small, which can meet the thickness size limit requirements of the door body of refrigerators such as built-in refrigerators and ultra-thin refrigerators.

[0108] In this embodiment, the slot 24 is located on one side of the light guide assembly 30, and the slot 24 extends along the height direction of the door body 20, so that the light bar 41 is set on one side of the light guide assembly 30 to protect the light bar 41 and prevent the light bar 41 from being squeezed and damaged.

[0109] Combination Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the slot 24 is located on one side of the light guide assembly 30, and the slot 24 extends along the height direction of the door body 20. In addition, along the height direction of the door body 20, the light bar 41 is arranged in the middle of the protection groove 43, which can effectively protect the light bar 41.

[0110] For example, the refrigerator may fall during transportation. By having the slot 24 located on one side of the light guide assembly 30, the light bar 41 is arranged on one side of the light guide assembly 30, and the light bar 41 is arranged in the middle of the protective groove 43, the refrigerator is prevented from falling and causing the light bar 41 to be squeezed and damaged, thereby improving the quality reliability of the product.

[0111] Combination Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a refrigerator 50. The refrigerator 50 includes a box body 51 and a door assembly 10 as in any of the previous embodiments. The door assembly 10 is rotatably disposed on the box body 51.

[0112] In this embodiment, the refrigerator 50 has the above-mentioned door body assembly 10, which can achieve that the thickness of the foaming layer of the door body 20 meets the requirements of refrigerators such as built-in refrigerators and ultra-thin refrigerators, thereby improving the performance of the refrigerator and enhancing the user experience.

[0113] In this embodiment, the door assembly 10 is rotatably disposed on the housing 51, so that the door assembly 10 can rotate relative to the housing 51, so that the door of the refrigerator 50 can be opened and closed normally.
