When the compressor is working, suction and exhaust are performed. The high-temperature gas discharged from the exhaust pipe of the compressor evaporates the water in the water tray to prevent the defrost water from overflowing the water tray. Due to the limited size of the compressor compartment, the volume size of the water tray is limited. The prototype product has more defrost water, and the water in the water tray is easy to overflow, which not only affects the normal use of the refrigerator, but also poses a safety hazard to a certain extent.

[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the foam blocks 4 on the first U-shaped tube 101 and the third U-shaped tube 103 are in contact with each other, and the foam blocks 4 on the second U-shaped tube 102 and the fourth U-shaped tube 104 are in contact with each other, so that the first U-shaped tube 101 and the third U-shaped tube 103 and the second U-shaped tube 102 and the fourth U-shaped tube 104 are mutually shock-absorbing and supported.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the above also includes a water receiving tray 3, and two groups of hooks 301 are fixedly connected inside the water receiving tray 3.
