Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of storage, in particular to a refrigerator. Background Art

[0002] A side-by-side refrigerator usually has a reversible vertical beam on one of the two doors, so that the vertical beam can be used to seal the gap between the two doors and the refrigerator door on the side with the vertical beam can be opened and closed separately. In order to achieve sealing, when the refrigerator door is in the closed state, the refrigerator door without the vertical beam will press the vertical beam in the direction of opening the door, resulting in greater resistance when opening the refrigerator door with the vertical beam alone, which brings inconvenience in use. Moreover, the greater resistance when the vertical beam is opened can easily accelerate the loosening of the vertical beam reversing structure, which has an adverse effect on the service life of the vertical beam.

[0004] A further object of the utility model is to better guide the vertical beam to be embedded in the matching groove.

[0005] In particular, the utility model provides a refrigerator, comprising:

[0006] A box body, wherein the box body is formed with a storage compartment, and the top wall and the bottom wall of the storage compartment are respectively provided with a matching groove; and

[0007] Two door body assemblies, the two door body assemblies are pivotally connected to the box body in a split manner to open and close the storage compartment, the door body assemblies include a door body and a vertical beam, the vertical beam is slidably connected to the door body, and an elastic member is provided between the vertical beam and the door body, the two door body assemblies in a closed state make the two vertical beams abut and embed in the matching groove, and the elastic member has a tendency to move the corresponding vertical beam in a direction away from the other vertical beam;

[0008] The vertical beam is provided with a first locking structure, and the matching groove is provided with a second locking structure, so that the door body assembly can be locked in a closed state via the first locking structure and the second locking structure.

[0014] Optionally, the door body assembly includes a plurality of connecting rods, the connecting rods are detachably fixedly connected to the vertical beams, the connecting portion is provided with sliding holes having the same number as the connecting rods, the number of the elastic members is the same as the number of the connecting rods, the connecting rods are slidably disposed in the sliding holes, and the elastic members are disposed between the connecting rods and the inner walls of the sliding holes.

[0015] Optionally, the opening of the sliding hole is located on a side of the connecting portion away from the vertical beam, and the connecting portion is provided with an avoidance hole connecting the sliding hole and a side of the connecting portion facing the vertical beam, and the diameter of the avoidance hole is smaller than that of the sliding hole;

[0016] The connecting rod has a rod portion and a base portion, the base portion is located in the sliding hole, the rod portion passes through the avoidance hole and is connected to the vertical beam, and the elastic member is arranged between the base portion and the inner wall of the sliding hole opposite to its own opening.

[0017] Optionally, the connecting rod is a screw.

[0018] Optionally, the vertical beam is provided with a sealing strip, and the sealing strip is arranged on a surface of the vertical beam facing another door body assembly.

[0019] The refrigerator of the utility model is provided with two vertical beams, which are slidably connected to the corresponding door bodies, and an elastic member is provided between the vertical beams and the door bodies, and matching grooves are provided on the top and bottom walls of the storage compartment.

[0020] Furthermore, the refrigerator of the utility model provides inclined surfaces on the opposite sides of the matching groove so that the matching groove is contracted in the direction from the front to the rear of the box, and provides an inclined surface matching the matching groove on the vertical beam. During the closing process of the door assembly, the inclined surface of the matching groove and the inclined surface of the vertical beam cooperate with each other to guide the vertical beam to be embedded in the matching groove. In addition, the distance between the left and right side walls of the matching groove is made larger and larger in the direction from the rear to the front of the box, so during the opening process of the door assembly, the vertical beam of the opened door assembly can be provided with a space to move away from another vertical beam in time, thereby further improving the smoothness of the door opening process. In addition, the elastic member of the opened door assembly can be gradually restored, and the force on the vertical beam is relatively mild, so as to avoid excessive force on the vertical beam and collision caused by excessive recovery of the elastic member at one time.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the refrigerator includes a box body 100 and two door body assemblies 200. The box body 100 is formed with a storage compartment 101, and the top wall and the bottom wall of the storage compartment 101 are respectively provided with a matching groove 102. The two door body assemblies 200 are pivotally connected to the box body 100 in a split manner to open and close the storage compartment 101. The door body assembly 200 includes a door body 210 and a vertical beam 220, the vertical beam 220 is slidably connected to the door body 210, and an elastic member 300 is provided between the vertical beam 220 and the door body 210, and the two door body assemblies 200 in the closed state make the two vertical beams 220 abut and embed in the matching groove 102, and make the elastic member 300 have a tendency to move the corresponding vertical beam 220 in a direction away from the other vertical beam 220. The vertical beam 220 is provided with a first locking structure 221 , and the matching groove 102 is provided with a second locking structure 110 , so that the door assembly 200 can be locked in a closed state via the first locking structure 221 and the second locking structure 110 .

[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the two door assemblies 200 are distributed along the left and right directions of the box body 100, one door body 210 is pivotally connected to the left side wall of the storage compartment 101, and the other door body 210 is pivotally connected to the right side wall of the storage compartment 101. The vertical beam 220 is arranged on the side opposite to the pivoting side of the corresponding door body 210. When the two door assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the two vertical beams 220 abut together along the left and right directions of the box body 100 to form a seal.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a matching groove 102 is formed at the front end of the top wall of the storage compartment 101, and a matching groove 102 is also formed at the front end of the bottom wall. When the two door body assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the two vertical beams 220 abutting against each other are embedded in the matching grooves 102. Specifically, the top and bottom of the vertical beams 220 are respectively embedded in the matching grooves 102 on the top and bottom walls of the storage compartment 101. In other words, the shape formed by the tops and bottoms of the two vertical beams 220 abutting against each other matches the shape of the matching grooves 102, so that the tops and bottoms of the two vertical beams 220 are just embedded in the matching grooves 102.

[0037] At the same time, when the two door body assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the first locking structure 221 on the vertical beam 220 and the second locking structure 110 in the matching groove 102 cooperate with each other to lock the door body assemblies 200 in a closed state.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, further, the vertical beam 220 is slidably connected with the door body 210, that is, the vertical beam 220 can move along the distribution direction of one side of the door body 210 where it is located and the pivot side of the door body 210 and the box body 100. An elastic member 300 is provided between the vertical beam 220 and the door body 210. When the two door body assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the elastic member 300 has a tendency to move the corresponding vertical beam 220 in a direction away from the other vertical beam 220. Specifically, when the two door body assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the elastic member 300 is in a state of deformation, that is, it has a tendency to return to the original state, and when the elastic member 300 returns to the original state, it generates a force on the vertical beam 220, and the force causes the vertical beam 220 to move in a direction away from the other vertical beam 220, or to move the vertical beam 220 to the pivot side of the door body 210 where it is located, that is, the elastic member 300 has a tendency to move the corresponding vertical beam 220 in a direction away from the other vertical beam 220.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, when the two door body assemblies 200 are in the closed state, the first locking structure 221 of the vertical beam 220 and the second locking structure 110 in the matching groove 102 cooperate with each other to achieve locking, and at the same time, the elastic member 300 has a tendency to make the corresponding vertical beam 220 move in a direction away from the other vertical beam 220. Therefore, when one of the door body assemblies 200 is opened, the opened door body assembly 200 causes the first locking structure 221 to disengage from the position locked with the second locking structure 110 under the action of external force. As the first locking structure 221 and the second locking structure 110 disengage from each other, the vertical beam 220 can move relative to the door body 210, and at this time, the elastic member 300 also begins to return to the original state, thereby giving the vertical beam 220 an external force to move it in a direction away from the other vertical beam 220, thereby reducing the interference between the two vertical beams 220 during the door opening process.

[0040] In the solution of this embodiment, two vertical beams 220 are provided, the vertical beams 220 are slidably connected to the corresponding door bodies 210, an elastic member 300 is provided between the vertical beams 220 and the door bodies 210, and matching grooves 102 are provided on the top and bottom walls of the storage compartment 101. When the two door body assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the two vertical beams 220 abut against and are embedded in the matching grooves 102, and the elastic member 300 has a tendency to move the corresponding vertical beam 220 away from the other vertical beam 220. That is to say, the two vertical beams 220 are used to abut against each other in the distribution direction of the two door body assemblies 200 to form a seal, and the elastic member 300 can drive the corresponding vertical beam 220 away from the other vertical beam 220 during the door opening process. Compared with the existing method of setting a flip vertical beam, the problem of a door body without a vertical beam pressing the vertical beam in the door opening direction to cause a large door opening resistance is avoided, and the force applied by the elastic member 300 to the vertical beam 220 reduces the interference of the two vertical beams 220 during the door opening process, making the door opening smoother. In addition, the flip structure is eliminated, so that the service life of the vertical beam structure is longer.

[0041] In addition, when the two door body assemblies 200 are in a closed state, the two vertical beams 220 abut against each other and are embedded in the matching grooves 102. That is to say, there is no external structure in the abutting direction that will hinder the two vertical beams 220 from approaching and abutting each other, thereby helping to improve the sealing effect between the two vertical beams 220, and the structural dimensions are also easier to design and produce.

[0042] It should be noted that the refrigerator of the present application can be provided with one storage compartment or multiple storage compartments. When multiple storage compartments are provided, some of the storage compartments may use two door body assemblies that open opposite each other, or all of the storage compartments may use two door body assemblies that open opposite each other. The refrigerator in the accompanying drawings is only an example, and those skilled in the art can adjust the number and distribution of the storage compartments as needed.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the first locking structure 221 is an elastic protrusion, and the second locking structure 110 is a locking groove, and the elastic protrusion is embedded in the locking groove to lock the door assembly 200 in a closed state. Specifically, the first locking structure 221 is an annular elastic protrusion arranged on the vertical beam 220, that is, the first locking structure 221 can be compressed and can return to its original state after being compressed. The second locking structure 110 is a locking groove that matches the shape of the first locking structure 221.

[0044] During the closing process of the door body assembly 200, as the vertical beam 220 continuously enters the matching groove 102, the first locking structure 221 continuously approaches the second locking structure 110. When the first locking structure 221 just enters the matching groove 102, the first locking structure 221 is compressed until the first locking structure 221 moves to the position of the second locking structure 110. The first locking structure 221 returns to its original state, thereby being embedded in the second locking structure 110, thereby achieving the locking of the door body assembly 200.

[0045] By configuring the first locking structure 221 as an elastic protrusion and the second locking structure 110 as a locking groove, it is helpful to simplify the structure.

[0046] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the first locking structure and the second locking structure may also be magnetic structures that cooperate with each other.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, further, inclined surfaces are formed on opposite sides of the matching groove 102, so that the matching groove 102 is contracted in the direction from the front to the rear of the box 100, and the vertical beam 220 is formed with an inclined surface matching the matching groove 102. Specifically, the left and right side walls of the matching groove 102 are inclined toward the middle of the two, so that the distance between the left and right side walls of the matching groove 102 is getting smaller and smaller in the direction from the front to the rear of the box 100. The vertical beam 220 is also formed with an inclined surface matching the matching groove 102, so that the vertical beam 220 slides on the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 in the inclined direction via its own inclined surface during the process of being embedded in the matching groove 102.

[0048] It is understandable that by providing inclined surfaces on the opposite sides of the matching groove 102, the matching groove 102 is contracted in the direction from the front to the back of the box 100, and the vertical beam 220 is provided with an inclined surface matching the matching groove 102. In the closing process of the door assembly 200, the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 and the inclined surface of the vertical beam 220 cooperate with each other, which can play a role in guiding the vertical beam 220 to embed into the matching groove 102. In addition, the distance between the left and right side walls of the matching groove 102 is made larger and larger in the direction from the back to the front of the box 100, so in the opening process of the door assembly 200, the vertical beam 220 of the opened door assembly 200 can be provided with a space for movement away from another vertical beam 220 in time, thereby further improving the smoothness of the door opening process. In addition, in other words, the elastic member 300 of the opened door assembly 200 can be gradually restored, and the force on the vertical beam 220 is relatively mild, so as to avoid the elastic member 300 from recovering too much at one time, resulting in excessive force on the vertical beam 220 and collision.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, further, the angle between the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 and the vertical plane extending along the left-right direction of the box body 100 is greater than or equal to 35 degrees and less than or equal to 55 degrees. Specifically, the angle between the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 and the vertical plane extending along the left-right direction of the box body 100 is an acute angle between the two. Figure 5 The angle a in the figure is the angle between an inclined surface of the matching groove 102 and a vertical plane extending in the left-right direction of the box body 100, that is, a is greater than or equal to 35 degrees and less than or equal to 55 degrees, for example, it can be 35 degrees, 40 degrees, 45 degrees, 50 degrees or 55 degrees. Preferably, the angle between the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 and the vertical plane extending in the left-right direction of the box body 100 is configured to be 45 degrees.

[0050] By making the angle between the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 and the vertical plane extending in the left-right direction of the box body 100 greater than or equal to 35 degrees and less than or equal to 55 degrees, the inclined surface can be prevented from being too gentle while achieving the guiding function, thereby ensuring the clamping effect of the vertical beam 220.

[0051] In addition, the first locking structure 221 is disposed on the inclined surface of the vertical beam 220 , and the second locking structure 110 is disposed on the inclined surface of the matching groove 102 .

[0052] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a guide groove 222 extending in the inclined direction is formed on the inclined surface of the vertical beam 220, and a guide block 120 extending in the inclined direction is formed on the inclined surface of the matching groove 102. The door body assembly 200 in the closed state allows the guide block 120 to be embedded in the guide groove 222. Specifically, the guide groove 222 runs from one end of the inclined surface to the other end along the inclined direction of the inclined surface of the vertical beam 220. During the closing process of the door body assembly 200, as the vertical beam 220 continuously enters the matching groove 102, the guide groove 222 continuously approaches the guide block 120 until the guide block 120 enters the guide groove 222 along the direction in which the vertical beam 220 is embedded in the matching groove 102, or in other words, along the inclined direction of the inclined surface.

[0053] By setting a guide groove 222 on the inclined surface of the vertical beam 220 and setting a guide block 120 on the inclined surface of the matching groove 102, the guide block 120 can be embedded in the guide groove 222 along the direction in which the vertical beam 220 is embedded in the matching groove 102, so that the guide block 120 and the guide groove 222 can play a role in positioning and supporting the vertical beam 220 in the longitudinal direction, which is beneficial to ensure the structural stability of the vertical beam 220 in the longitudinal direction and avoid longitudinal misalignment, so that the top surface of the vertical beam 220 and the top wall of the matching groove 102 have a better fitting and sealing effect.

[0054] Although not shown in the figures, preferably, the guide groove has an increasing longitudinal width along the direction from the front to the rear of the box body, and correspondingly, the guide block has an increasing longitudinal width along the direction from the front to the rear of the box body.

[0055] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a connecting portion 211 is provided on the side of the door body 210 facing the box body 100, and the vertical beam 220 is slidably connected to the connecting portion 211, so that the vertical beam 220 is located on the side of the door body 210 facing the box body 100. Figure 3 As shown, taking a door assembly 200 as an example, specifically, the connecting portion 211 is a square rod-shaped structure extending in the longitudinal direction, that is, it has an upper and lower surface and four side surfaces, one side surface coincides with the side surface of the door 210 facing the box body 100, and one side surface faces the direction where another door assembly is located. The vertical beam 220 is slidably arranged on the side surface of the connecting portion 211 facing the direction where another door assembly is located.

[0056] By setting a connecting portion 211 on the side of the door body 210 facing the box body 100, the vertical beam 220 is slidably connected to the connecting portion 211, so that the vertical beam 220 is located on the side of the door body 210 facing the box body 100, so that the vertical beam 220 can be concealed when the door body assembly is in a closed state, making the appearance of the refrigerator more beautiful.

[0057] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, further, the door body assembly 200 includes a plurality of connecting rods 230, the connecting rods 230 are detachably fixedly connected to the vertical beams 220, the connecting portion 211 is provided with sliding holes 212 which are the same in number as the connecting rods 230, the number of elastic members 300 is the same as the number of the connecting rods 230, the connecting rods 230 are slidably disposed in the sliding holes 212, and the elastic members 300 are disposed between the connecting rods 230 and the inner walls of the sliding holes 212.

[0058] Specifically, the opening of the sliding hole 212 is located on the side of the connecting portion 211 away from the vertical beam 220, and the connecting portion 211 is provided with an avoidance hole 213 connecting the sliding hole 212 and the side of the connecting portion 211 facing the vertical beam 220, and the diameter of the avoidance hole 213 is smaller than the sliding hole 212. The connecting rod 230 has a rod portion and a base portion, the base portion is located in the sliding hole 212, the rod portion passes through the avoidance hole 213 and is connected to the vertical beam 220, and the elastic member 300 is arranged between the base portion and the inner wall of the sliding hole 212 opposite to its own opening.

[0059] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8As shown, each door assembly 200 includes two connecting rods 230. The two connecting rods 230 are distributed in the longitudinal direction and are respectively located on both sides of the longitudinal center of the vertical beam 220. The sliding hole 212 is formed by partially hollowing out the side of the connecting portion 211 facing the direction where the other door assembly is located to the opposite side, so that the opening of the sliding hole 212 is located on the side of the connecting portion 211 away from the vertical beam 220. Then, the sliding hole 212 continues to be hollowed out to the opposite side to form the avoidance hole 213, that is, the sliding hole 212 and the avoidance hole 213 together form a channel from the side of the connecting portion 211 facing the direction where the other door assembly is located to the opposite side.

[0060] Further, the connecting rod 230 is placed into the sliding hole 212 through the opening of the sliding hole 212, and the rod portion passes through the avoidance hole 212, so that the end of the rod portion is located outside the connecting portion 211, so as to achieve connection with the vertical beam 220 by using the end of the rod portion. The base portion of the connecting rod 230 is located in the sliding hole 212, and the elastic member 300 is arranged between the base portion and the inner wall of the sliding hole 212 opposite to the opening thereof. The connecting rod 230 can be a screw, that is, the connecting rod 230 is detachably threadedly connected to the vertical beam 220. The elastic member 300 can be a spring.

[0061] When the door assembly 200 is in a closed state, the base of the connecting rod 230 and the inner wall of the sliding hole 212 squeeze the elastic member 300, so that the elastic member 300 is in a compressed state. During the opening process of the door assembly 200, the elastic member 300 stretches, thereby applying a force pointing to the opening direction of the sliding hole 212 to the base of the connecting rod 230, so that the connecting rod 230 drives the vertical beam 220 to move in a direction away from the other vertical beam.

[0062] The connecting rod 230 and the sliding hole 212 are used to realize the sliding connection between the vertical beam 220 and the connecting part 211. The connecting rod 230 and the sliding hole 212 are relatively small in size, so that the connecting part 211 and the vertical beam 220 do not need to be designed in a large range of structures, which helps to simplify the structure. The connecting rod 230 and the vertical beam 220 are detachably connected, which also helps to disassemble the vertical beam 220.

[0063] Furthermore, by setting the opening of the sliding hole 212 on the side of the connecting rod 230 away from the vertical beam 220, the connecting rod 230 passes through the avoidance hole 213 and is connected to the vertical beam 220, so that the connecting rod 230 and the vertical beam 220 can be easily disassembled from the opening of the sliding hole 212. The connecting rod 230 is a screw, which is also convenient for the above structure to achieve disassembly and assembly.

[0064] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the number of connecting rods may be 3 or more. In addition, it should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the matching mode between the connecting rod and the vertical beam may also be a mode of first aligning and then rotating to achieve fixation.

[0065] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the connecting rod may not be used, but a longitudinal long groove may be directly provided in the connecting portion so that the vertical beam can be slidably connected with the connecting portion in the long groove.

[0066] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, further, the vertical beam 220 is provided with a sealing strip 240, which is arranged on the surface of the vertical beam 220 facing another door assembly. When the door assembly 200 is in a closed state, the two vertical beams 220 are in contact with each other via their respective sealing strips 240, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0067] At this point, those skilled in the art should recognize that, although multiple exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described in detail herein, many other variations or modifications that conform to the principles of the present invention can still be directly determined or derived from the contents disclosed in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should be understood and recognized as covering all such other variations or modifications.
