[0020] A condensate drainage structure for a refrigerator comprises a refrigerator 1, wherein a mounting portion is provided at one end of the refrigerator 1; a fixing frame 2 is provided at the upper end of the mounting portion, wherein an evaporator 3 is fixedly installed in the fixing frame 2; a base 4 is provided at the lower end of the mounting portion, wherein a condenser 5 is installed above the base 4; a frame-shaped support 6 is provided at one end above the base 4 away from the condenser 5, wherein a compressor 7 is provided at the upper end of the frame-shaped support 6; a receiving cavity 8 is provided between the frame-shaped support 6 and the base 4, wherein an evaporation disk 9 is provided in the receiving cavity 8, and a heating tube 10 is provided in the evaporation disk 9; a through hole is provided on the upper end surface of the frame-shaped support 6, wherein the lower end of the compressor 7 passes through the through hole and communicates with the receiving cavity 8. The condensate generated by the compressor 7 and the condensate flowing into the water receiving tray 11 are collected by the evaporation disk 9, the heating tube 10 is controlled to be energized to heat the condensate in the evaporation disk 9, thereby turning the condensate into water vapor, and then the exhaust fan 14 is controlled to discharge the generated water vapor to the outside of the refrigerator 1 through the exhaust pipe 15, so that the condensate can be evaporated and discharged, which is convenient for the treatment of the condensate.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 As an embodiment of the utility model, a water receiving pan 11 is provided below the evaporator 3, wherein both ends of the water receiving pan 11 are movably connected to the inner wall of the lower end of the fixing frame 2 respectively; a drainage hole 12 is opened in the middle of the water receiving pan 11, wherein a drainage pipe 13 is provided below the water receiving pan 11; the upper end of the drainage pipe 13 passes through the bottom of the fixing frame 2 and is connected to the drainage hole 12, wherein the lower end of the drainage pipe 13 passes downward through the top of the frame-shaped support 6 and extends into the evaporation pan 9; an exhaust fan 14 is provided on one side of the compressor 7, and the exhaust fan 14 is fixedly connected to the frame-shaped support 6, wherein the air inlet of the exhaust fan 14 is connected to the accommodating chamber 8; the air outlet of the exhaust fan 14 is connected to the exhaust pipe 15, wherein the other end of the exhaust pipe 15 passes through the back plate of the refrigerator 1 and is connected to the outside.

[0022] In the above-described scheme, by installing a water receiving pan 11 under the evaporator 3, the condensed water generated by the operation of the evaporator 3 can be collected in time, and the water receiving pan 11 is connected to the evaporating pan 9 through the drain pipe 13, so that the water receiving pan 11 discharges the collected condensed water into the evaporating pan 9 through the drain pipe 13, wherein the evaporating pan 9 simultaneously collects the condensed water generated by the compressor 7 and the condensed water flowing into the water receiving pan 11, and the collected condensed water is heated by the heating tube 10 installed in the evaporating pan 9, so that the condensed water is converted into water vapor under the action of the heating tube 10, and then the exhaust fan 14 is controlled to extract the water vapor generated in the evaporating pan, and the water vapor is discharged to the outside of the refrigerator 1 through the exhaust pipe 15, which greatly improves the applicability of the refrigerator 1 and is convenient to use.

[0023] See also Figure 4 As an embodiment of the utility model, an emergency drain port 16 is provided at the bottom of the evaporation tray 9, wherein a rubber sealing plug (not shown) is provided in the emergency drain port 16.

The control box 17 controls the heating tube 10 to be energized to heat the condensed water in the evaporation pan 9, thereby turning the condensed water into water vapor. Then the through-hole control box 17 controls the exhaust fan 14 to discharge the water vapor generated in the evaporation pan 9 to the outside of the refrigerator through the exhaust pipe 15, thereby facilitating the treatment of the condensed water.
