Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments in this application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] Example

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 4 As shown:

[0029] The utility model provides a safe lifting freezing rack, comprising: a cover plate 10, a freezing rack 30, a cold storage box 70 and a pushing component.

[0030] A refrigeration slot for placing the freezing rack 30 is provided on the top of the refrigeration box 70; a cover plate 10 is arranged on the top of the refrigeration slot, and a vertical driving part is provided between the cover plate 10 and the refrigeration box 70, and the vertical driving part drives the cover plate 10 to rise and fall in the vertical direction.

[0031] The vertical drive unit is mainly composed of a pair of electric telescopic rods 20, which are respectively located on both sides of the refrigeration tank. The top of the electric telescopic rod 20 is vertically connected to the bottom of the cover plate 10, and the bottom of the electric telescopic rod 20 is installed in the through hole at the top of the refrigerator 70.

[0032] The pushing assembly is mainly composed of a mounting groove and a driving motor 52; the pushing assembly is installed at the open end of the refrigerating tank, and a lever 51 rotating around a vertical direction is provided on the pushing assembly, and the lever 51 is used to push the drawer 31 on the freezing rack 30 that exceeds the edge of the refrigerating tank back into the freezing rack 30.

[0033] The mounting groove is arranged at the top of the refrigerator 70, and the length direction of the mounting groove is perpendicular to the refrigerator; the lever 51 is installed in the mounting groove. The driving motor 52 is installed in the motor groove at the top of the refrigerator 70, the motor groove is connected to the mounting groove, and the rotating shaft of the driving motor 52 is vertically connected to the middle of the lever 51. The rotating shaft of the driving motor 52 drives the lever 51 to rotate around the vertical direction, so that the lever 51 can push the drawer 31 beyond the freezing rack 30 back into the freezing rack 30.

[0034] The driving motor 52 is a low-power variable frequency motor, so the speed of the rotating shaft can be adjusted during actual use, so that the rotation speed of the lever 51 is slowed down, and the drawer 31 can be slowly pushed into the freezing rack 30.

[0035] Both ends of the lever 51 are configured as beveled ends, and the inclined end surfaces of the beveled ends are opposite to the drawer 31. The end of the lever 51 is configured to be inclined, so that when the inclined end surface of the lever 51 contacts the drawer 31, the drawer 31 is gradually pressed along the length direction of the inclined end surface during the rotation of the lever 51, and finally the drawer 31 is completely pushed into the freezing rack 30, and the contact connection between the two is released.

[0036] There is an avoidance gap 71 between the refrigerating tank of the refrigerator 70 and the freezing rack 30. Through such an arrangement, the deformation of the freezing rack 30 in a low temperature environment has a space to accommodate, and no collision occurs during the rising or falling process of the freezing rack 30.

[0037] A control panel 40 for controlling the start of the electric telescopic rod 20 and the driving motor 52 is provided on the refrigerator 70, and the drawer 31 is opposite to the control panel 40 along the direction of entry and exit of the freezing rack 30, so that the operator can observe whether the drawer 31 on the freezing rack 30 is not fully pushed into the freezing rack 30 when operating the control panel 40.

[0038] It also includes a pair of laser beam sensors 60 for detecting whether the drawer 31 exceeds the edge of the refrigerating tank; the laser beam sensors 60 are installed at the edge of the top of the refrigerating tank, and the laser beam sensors 60 are electrically connected to the control panel 40.

[0039] During normal operation, at the recommended retrieval level, such as rising to the 7th layer, the 7th layer is taken out, and after the drawer 31 is pulled out to block the laser beam sensor 60, the laser beam sensor 60 transmits the detection information to the control panel 40. Since the control panel 40 is electrically connected to the electric telescopic rod 20 and the drive motor 52, the control panel 40 receives the information to control the electric telescopic rod 20 to stop in time, that is, the freezing rack 30 does not fall anymore. At this time, the control panel 40 starts the drive motor 52 to work, and the drive motor 52 drives the lever 51 to work, so that the lever 51 pushes the drawer 31 into the freezing rack 30.

[0040] Affected by the mechanical clearance and inertia of the motor, "stopping in time" means that the freezing rack 30 will still move down about 0.2-0.5mm, so the recognition position of the laser beam sensor 60 needs to avoid the drawer 31 from directly moving and appearing in the judgment position of the laser beam sensor 60. Therefore, the lowest point of the top of each layer of drawers 31 is at least 0.5mm higher than the laser beam. Considering the assembly clearance of the laser beam sensor 60, the freezing rack 30, the drawer 31, etc., it is recommended to reserve 5mm.

[0041] A magnet that attracts each other is arranged between the rear end of the drawer 31 and the body of the freezing rack 30. In actual use, the magnet can exert an adsorption force when the lever 51 pushes the drawer 31, thereby making it easier for the lever 51 to push the drawer 31.

[0042] It should be noted that if the embodiments of the present invention involve directional indications such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc., then the directional indications are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture as shown in the accompanying drawings. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0043] In addition, if there are descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the utility model, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the meaning of "and / or" appearing in the full text includes three parallel schemes. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes scheme A, or scheme B, or schemes that satisfy both A and B. In addition, "multiple" refers to more than two. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist.

[0044] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
