[0031] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model provides a system for upgrading an existing mechanical temperature-controlled refrigerator to an intelligent positioning refrigerator, comprising: an intelligent module 4, a power adapter module 1, an internal light 3, and an external light 9. The intelligent module 4 adopts the intelligent module currently used in the intelligent cabinet. The internal integrated lithium battery, WIFI antenna, network module, and network card of the intelligent module 4 are powered by 12V DC. The intelligent module 4 is externally connected to an antenna 6, a camera 5, a temperature sensor 7, and a magnetic switch 8, and has a 12V DC power supply output port. The power adapter module 1, the internal light 3, and the external light 9 are all components already possessed by the mechanical temperature-controlled refrigerator.

[0032] The intelligent module 4 is fixedly installed inside the light box 10 of the mechanical temperature-controlled freezer by using a support structure. The power adapter module 1 is used to convert the high-voltage alternating current of the mechanical temperature-controlled freezer into 12V low-voltage power supply, which is output by the low-voltage circuit 2. The in-box lamp 3 is connected in parallel with the intelligent module 4 in the low-voltage circuit 2. The intelligent module 4 has a low-voltage output port, and the out-of-box lamp 9 is powered by the intelligent module 4.

[0033] During the modification, only the outer shell of the cabinet door of the mechanical temperature-controlled freezer needs to be disassembled to expose the light box 10. Then, the intelligent module 4 is fixedly installed in the light box 10, and the circuit connected to the out-of-box lamp 9 is cut off. The intelligent module 4 is installed, and a new wire harness is added. The 12V DC power supply output port of the intelligent module 4 is used to supply power to the out-of-box lamp 9.

[0035] Specifically, the support structure includes: a first support foot 14, a second support foot 15, a third support foot 16, a pull rod 21, a mounting bracket 11, and a "J"-shaped clip 13.

[0036] One end of each of the first support foot 14, the second support foot 15, and the third support foot 16 is movably connected through a step block 17. The first support foot 14, the second support foot 15, and the third support foot 16 form a triangular shape. The pull rod 21 is installed between the second support foot 15 and the third support foot 16 to maintain the included angle between the second support foot 15 and the third support foot 16, so that the pull rod 21, the second support foot 15, and the third support foot 16 can form a stable triangular whole. This whole forms a 180° angle with the first support foot 14, so that it can be supported on the inner side of the light box 10 and fixed to the light box 10 by the supporting force. The mounting bracket 11 is fixedly connected to the step block 17. A bayonet 12 is provided on the mounting bracket 11. The "J"-shaped clip 13 is fixedly installed on the back of the intelligent module 4.

[0037] In one embodiment, an annular groove 18 is provided on the side surface of the step block 17. A snap ring 19 is clamped on the annular groove 18. One end of each of the first support foot 14, the second support foot 15, and the third support foot 16 is fixedly connected with an annular member. The step block 17 passes through the three groups of annular members, and the axial movement of the three groups of annular members is restricted by the snap ring 19 and the step block 17.

[0038] In one embodiment, a threaded hole is provided at the end of the step block 17, and a mounting hole is provided on the side surface of the mounting bracket 11.
