[0030] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an exploded structure of a refrigerator provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 Refrigerator 000 may include: a supporting bottom plate 100, a box body 200, a device to be cooled 300 and a cooling fan 400.
[0031] The support bottom plate 100 in the refrigerator 000 may include: a bottom plate body 101 connected to the bottom of the box body 200, and a convex shell 102 fixedly connected to the bottom plate body 101, and the convex shell 102 may protrude relative to the bottom plate body 101 in a direction away from the box body 200.

[0032] The components 300 to be cooled and the cooling fan 400 in the refrigerator 000 may be mounted on the support base 100 .
[0033] In the embodiment of the present application, a plurality of first air inlets a1 are arranged on the bottom plate body 101 in the supporting bottom plate 100 of the refrigerator 000, and a plurality of second air inlets b1 are arranged on the convex shell 102, and the opening surface of the second air inlet b1 intersects with the opening surface of the first air inlet a1. In this way, after the refrigerator 000 is placed on the supporting surface (for example, the ground), the first air inlet a1 can be arranged toward the ground, and the opening surface of the second air inlet b1 can intersect with the ground, that is, air inlet channels in different directions composed of a plurality of first air inlets a1 and a plurality of second air inlets b1 are formed on the supporting bottom plate 100.

[0034] In summary, the embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator, which may include: a supporting base plate, a box body, a device to be cooled and a cooling fan. A plurality of first air inlets are arranged on the base plate body in the supporting base plate of the refrigerator, and a plurality of second air inlets are arranged on the convex shell, and the opening surface of the second air inlet intersects with the opening surface of the first air inlet. In this way, after the refrigerator is placed on the ground, the first air inlet can be arranged toward the ground, and the opening surface of the second air inlet can intersect with the ground, that is, air inlet channels in different directions composed of a plurality of first air inlets and a plurality of second air inlets are formed on the supporting base plate. In this way, under the action of the cooling fan, more external cold air flows near the air inlet are prompted to enter the compressor cabin in the refrigerator from the plurality of first air inlets and the plurality of second air inlets to cool the device to be cooled, which effectively improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the device to be cooled, ensures the service life of the device to be cooled, and ensures the heat dissipation efficiency of the refrigerator and reduces the energy consumption of the refrigerator as a whole.
[0035] Optional, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a partial structural schematic diagram of another refrigerator provided by an embodiment of the present application. The convex shell 102 in the supporting bottom plate 100 may include: a packaging plate 102a arranged opposite to the bottom of the box body 200, and an annular side plate 102b fixedly connected to the edge of the packaging plate 102a, and the side of the side plate 102b facing away from the packaging plate 102a may be fixedly connected to the bottom plate body 101. Among them, the annular surface where the annular side plate 102b is located may intersect with the plane where the packaging plate 102a is located, and intersect with the plane where the bottom plate body 101 is located. The multiple second air inlets b1 in the convex shell 102 may be located on the side plate 102b. In this case, a packaging plate 102a arranged opposite to the bottom of the box body 200 and an annular side plate 102b fixedly connected to the edge of the packaging plate 102a are provided in the convex shell 102, and the annular surface (i.e., the height direction of the annular side plate) where the side plate 102b is located intersects with the plane of the packaging plate 102a and the plane where the bottom plate body 101 is located. In this way, after the multiple second air inlets b1 are provided on the side plate 102b, the cooling fan 400 has a high efficiency in sucking in the external cold air flow through the multiple second air inlets b1, thereby ensuring a good cooling efficiency for the device 300 to be cooled.
[0036] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 3As shown, the second air inlet b1 located on the side plate 102b can be strip-shaped, that is, the second air inlet b1 can be a strip-shaped second air inlet, and the length extension direction of the second air inlet b1 can be parallel to the plane where the bottom plate body 101 is located. In this case, by setting the second air inlet b1 in a strip shape, the shape of the strip-shaped second air inlet b1 can be adapted to the annular side plate 102, so that the length of the second air inlet b1 can be increased, thereby effectively increasing the air flow through the second air inlet b1. It should be noted that the length of the second air inlet b1 can be set according to actual needs, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0037] In this application, if Figure 3 As shown, the first air inlet a1 located on the bottom plate body 101 may be strip-shaped, and the length extension direction of at least a portion of the first air inlet a1 may intersect with the length extension direction of at least a portion of the second air inlet b1.
[0038] Optional, such as Figure 3 As shown, the packaging plate 102a in the convex shell 102 may have a plurality of third air inlets b2, and the opening surface of the third air inlet b2 may be parallel to the opening surface of the first air inlet a1. In this case, by arranging a plurality of third air inlets b2 on the packaging plate 102a, and the opening surface of the third air inlet b2 is parallel to the opening surface of the first air inlet a1, the third air inlet b2 is added on the basis of the first air inlet a1 and the second air inlet b1, thereby further increasing the external cold air flow entering the compressor cabin, further effectively improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the device 300 to be dissipated, ensuring the service life of the device to be dissipated, and ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency of the refrigerator and reducing the energy consumption of the entire refrigerator. Here, air inlet channels in different directions composed of a plurality of first air inlets a1, a plurality of second air inlets b1 and a plurality of third air inlets b2 can be formed on the supporting base plate 100. In the present application, the arrangement direction of the plurality of first air inlets a1 and the plurality of second air inlets b1 may be parallel to the arrangement direction of the plurality of second air inlets b1 and the plurality of third air inlets b2.
[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the packaging plate 102a, the side plate 102b and the bottom plate body 101 can be an integrally formed sheet metal bending structure, that is, the support bottom plate 100 can be a sheet metal bending structure. In this case, since the support bottom plate 100 can be a sheet metal bending structure, the structural strength of the support bottom plate 100 is effectively increased, so that the support bottom plate 100 can stably support the device 300 to be cooled. Here, the convex shell and the bottom plate body can be formed at one time by forging or stamping.
[0040] Optional, such as Figure 3As shown, the bottom plate body 101 in the supporting bottom plate 100 may also have a plurality of first air outlets a2, and the plurality of first air outlets a2 and the plurality of first air inlets a1 may be respectively located on both sides of the bottom plate body 101. In this case, the heat dissipation fan 400 may be configured to: cause the ambient air around the plurality of air inlets to enter the compressor cabin from the plurality of air inlets, and pass through the devices 300 to be cooled in sequence, and then flow from the plurality of first air outlets a2 to the external environment to cool the devices 300 to be cooled. It should be noted that the box body 200, the supporting bottom plate 100 and the rear cover plate in the refrigerator 000 may enclose a compressor cabin for installing devices with heat dissipation.
[0041] In the examples of this application, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a bottom top view of a refrigerator provided by an embodiment of the present application. The refrigerator 000 may also include: a windshield strip 500 fixedly connected to the bottom plate body 101, and at least part of the windshield strip 500 may be located between the plurality of first air outlets a2 and the plurality of first air inlets a1. In this case, by arranging the windshield strip 500 on the side of the bottom plate body 101 away from the box body 200, when the refrigerator 000 is placed on the ground, the space between the supporting bottom plate 100 and the ground is transversely divided to allow the external ambient air to enter the compressor cabin through the plurality of air inlets located on one side of the windshield strip 500 under the action of the heat dissipation fan 400, and flow through the device 300 to be cooled in turn, and finally flow out from the plurality of air outlets located on the other side of the windshield strip 500. In this way, the first air outlet a2 and the first air inlet a1 located on the supporting bottom plate 100 are isolated, ensuring that the cold air flow entering from the first air inlet a1 and the heat dissipation air discharged from the first air outlet a2 will not flow in series, further ensuring the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0042] Optional, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5It is a partial structural diagram of another refrigerator provided by an embodiment of the present application. The refrigerator 000 may also include: a rear cover plate 600 fixedly connected to the support bottom plate 100, the rear cover plate 600 may be fixedly connected to the side of the box body 200, the rear cover plate 600 may have a plurality of fourth air inlets c1 and a plurality of second air outlets c2, the plurality of fourth air inlets c1 and the plurality of second air outlets c2 may be respectively located on both sides of the rear cover plate 600. In the present application, the plurality of fourth air inlets c1 may be arranged adjacent to the plurality of first air inlets a1, and the plurality of second air outlets c2 may be arranged adjacent to the plurality of first air outlets a2. In this case, by arranging a plurality of fourth air inlets c1 and a plurality of second air outlets c2 on the rear cover plate 600 located on the rear side of the refrigerator 000, during the operation of the cooling fan 400, the cold air flow in the external environment can be sucked in from the plurality of fourth air inlets c1 located on the rear cover plate 600, and then after flowing through the device 300 to be cooled, it can be discharged from the plurality of second air outlets c2 located on the rear cover plate 600, thereby further ensuring the heat dissipation reliability of the refrigerator 000.
[0043] In the embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 As shown, the device 300 to be cooled in the refrigerator 000 may include: a condenser 301 and a compressor 302, and a cooling fan 400 may be located between the condenser 301 and the compressor 302, and the air inlet surface of the cooling fan 400 may face the condenser 301, and the air outlet surface of the cooling fan 400 may face the compressor 302. In this case, the cooling fan 400 is configured to cause the ambient air around the multiple air inlets to enter the compressor cabin from the multiple air inlets, and pass through the condenser 301 and the compressor 302 in sequence, and then flow to the external environment from the multiple air outlets to cool the compressor 302 and the condenser 301. In the vapor compression refrigeration cycle, the surface temperature of the condenser 301 is generally lower than the surface temperature of the compressor 302, so in the above process, the external air is first cooled by the condenser 301 and then cooled by the compressor 302.
[0044] Optional, such as Figure 5 As shown, the refrigerator 000 may also include: a plurality of supporting casters 700, which may be connected to the supporting base plate 100. After the refrigerator 000 is placed on a supporting surface (e.g., the ground) by means of the plurality of supporting casters 700, a certain space may be formed between the supporting base plate 100 and the supporting surface to facilitate air flow.
[0045] In summary, the embodiment of the present application provides a refrigerator, which may include: a supporting base plate, a box body, a device to be cooled and a cooling fan. A plurality of first air inlets are arranged on the base plate body in the supporting base plate of the refrigerator, and a plurality of second air inlets are arranged on the convex shell, and the opening surface of the second air inlet intersects with the opening surface of the first air inlet. In this way, after the refrigerator is placed on the ground, the first air inlet can be arranged toward the ground, and the opening surface of the second air inlet can intersect with the ground, that is, air inlet channels in different directions composed of a plurality of first air inlets and a plurality of second air inlets are formed on the supporting base plate. In this way, under the action of the cooling fan, more external cold air flows near the air inlet are prompted to enter the compressor cabin in the refrigerator from the plurality of first air inlets and the plurality of second air inlets to cool the device to be cooled, which effectively improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the device to be cooled, ensures the service life of the device to be cooled, and ensures the heat dissipation efficiency of the refrigerator and reduces the energy consumption of the refrigerator as a whole.
