DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0036] See also Figure 1-10 As shown, the utility model is a mounting structure of a freezer temperature control box, and the mounting structure of the freezer temperature control box comprises a box shell 1, a temperature control box body 2, a display panel 3 and a control component 4. The freezer can be an electrical appliance for storing low-temperature items such as a refrigerator and a freezer.

[0037] The box shell 1 is provided with a mounting groove 11, and the bottom wall opening 111 of the mounting groove 11 is provided;

[0038] The temperature control box body 2 has a first connection portion 211 and a second connection portion 212. The cross-sectional area of ​​the first connection portion 211 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second connection portion 212. The first connection portion 211 is protrudingly disposed at one end of the second connection portion 212 and is disposed close to the opening 111.

[0039] The display panel 3 is disposed at one end of the first connection portion 211 away from the second connection portion 212 , and the display panel 3 is disposed in the mounting groove 11 ;

[0040] The control component 4 is disposed in the second connecting portion 212 .

[0041] In the above scheme, a first connecting part 211 and a second connecting part 212 with different cross-sectional areas are provided, the control component 4 is installed in the second connecting part 212 with a larger cross-sectional area, and the display panel 3 is installed in the first connecting part 211 with a smaller cross-sectional area. This can reduce the appearance display size of the temperature control box body 2 and the display panel 3, improve the aesthetics of the freezer, and reduce the production cost.

[0042] Specifically, Figure 5As shown, the bottom wall of the installation groove 11 is provided with an opening 111 , and the top wall of the installation groove 11 is open.

[0043] The second connection part 212 has a larger cross-sectional area, and the interior can be used to install a larger control component 4. By rationally planning the installation space, the internal space of the first connection part 211 is not used to install the control component 4, which can reduce the external size of the first connection part 211 and thereby reduce the external size of the display panel 3.

[0044] The first connection part 211 and the second connection part 212 are connected, which is equivalent to increasing the depth of the internal space of the temperature control box body 2, or, only retaining enough space for installing the control component 4 in the second connection part 212, shrinking the unused space in the first connection part 211, which is reflected in the appearance size of the temperature control box body 2, that is, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first connection part 211 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the second connection part 212, and the first connection part 211 is assembled corresponding to the installation groove 11. The appearance of the temperature control box body 2 seen from the opening 111 at the installation groove 11 is the first connection part 211, which can reduce the display size of the temperature control box body 2; the display panel 3 is correspondingly installed on the first connection part 211, and the display panel 3 is located in the installation groove 11, which can reduce the appearance display size of the display panel 3; the appearance display sizes of the temperature control box body 2 and the display panel 3 are both reduced, which can reduce the production cost.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, the box shell 1 at the edge of the opening 111 is clamped and arranged between the display panel 3 and the second connecting portion 212. It is convenient to install the display panel 3 and the temperature control box body 2 on the box shell 1, and the installation is convenient, and screw-free installation is realized, the assembly efficiency is high, and it is convenient to improve the aesthetics.

[0046] The display panel 3 extends along the length direction or width direction of the first connecting portion 211 and protrudes from both sides of the first connecting portion 211. A plurality of buckles 24 are protruded from one end of the second connecting portion 212 close to the display panel 3 and are arranged outside both sides of the first connecting portion 211. The bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 at the edge of the opening 111 is clamped between the buckles 24 and the protruding portion of the display panel 3.

[0047] Specifically, the buckle 24 has a certain elasticity. A plurality of buckles 24 are evenly arranged outside the opposite sides of the first connecting portion 211, so as to facilitate the stable installation of the temperature control box body 2.

[0048] During installation, if Figure 2As shown, the temperature control box body 2 first enters the opening of the installation groove 11 from the left side of the box shell 1, and the second connection part 212 with a larger cross-sectional area first enters from the side of the opening of the installation groove 11, and then enters the opening 111, reaches the right side of the box shell 1, and continues to move. The first connection part 211 and the buckle 24 enter the opening 111, and the inner wall of the opening 111 contacts the buckle 24. The buckle 24 is stressed and squeezed inwardly. When it moves into place, the buckle 24 is reset. Figure 4 As shown, at this time, the bottom wall of the mounting slot 11 at the edge of the opening 111 is sandwiched between the buckle 24 and the display panel 3 .

[0049] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a protruding boss 25 is provided on one end of the second connection portion 212 close to the display panel 3 , a distance is set between the boss 25 and the buckle 24 , and an end surface of the boss 25 away from the second connection portion 212 is flush with the top surface of the buckle 24 .

[0050] Specifically, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 at the edge of the opening 111 is clamped between the buckle 24 and the display panel 3, and the back side of the box shell 1 corresponding to the bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 is abutted against the end face of the boss 25 away from the second connecting portion 212, which can increase the contact area between the temperature control box body 2 and the box shell 1, and can play a supporting role, so as to share the force exerted on the buckle 24 and maintain the overall stability of the temperature control box body 2 and the display panel 3.

[0051] Preferably, the protruding height of the boss 25 is lower than the buckle 24. The buckle 24 is elastic and ductile, and can be reset when deformed by force. When the buckle 24 is deformed by force and its height is reduced until it is reduced to the height of the boss 25, the boss 25 can abut against the box shell 1.

[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, the box shell 1 at the edge of the opening 111 is turned outward to form a support portion 12, and the support portion 12 is located at the lower end of the temperature control box body 2. Specifically, the support portion 12 protrudes outward and is arranged at the edge of the opening 111. The support portion 12 can be a plurality of strips, which are used to support the temperature control box body 2 and enhance the stability of the structure.

[0053] One side wall of the box shell 1 protrudes outward and the other side wall is recessed inward to form the installation groove 11.

[0054] Specifically, the mounting groove 11 is formed by stamping and is used to accommodate the display panel 3. Since the mounting groove 11 needs to accommodate the display panel 3, the mounting groove 11 has a certain depth. One side wall of the box shell 1 protrudes outward and the other side wall is recessed inward to form the mounting groove 11, which can reduce the thickness of the box shell 1, avoid the box shell 1 being too thick, and can reduce costs and reduce the weight of the refrigerator.

[0055] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a flexible member 31 is disposed on the protruding portion of the display panel 3 , and the flexible member 31 is disposed on the end surface of the display panel 3 close to the second connecting portion 212 and abuts against the bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 .

[0056] Specifically, the flexible member 31 has a certain elasticity and flexibility to prevent the display panel 3 from being damaged due to compression. The flexible member 31 can be a flexible material such as sponge or an elastic material.

[0057] The temperature control box body 2 includes a temperature control box seat 21 and a temperature control box cover 22. The temperature control box seat 21 includes the first connecting portion 211 and the second connecting portion 212 connected to each other. The first connecting portion 211 and the second connecting portion 212 are provided with a receiving cavity 23. The temperature control box cover 22 is snap-fitted to the temperature control box seat 21 and seals the receiving cavity 23.

[0058] Specifically, the first connection portion 211 and the second connection portion 212 are connected to each other, and the depth of the accommodating cavity 23 corresponding to the first connection portion 211 is greater than the depth of other positions of the accommodating cavity 23 , which facilitates the installation of electronic components on the display panel 3 .

[0060] Specifically, a plurality of positioning posts 231 are provided according to the shape of the control component 4. The positioning posts 231 are composed of two cylinders with different diameters, and the cylinder with a smaller diameter is located at the upper end of the cylinder with a larger diameter. The cylinder with a smaller diameter passes through the positioning hole 41, and the control component 4 abuts against the end surface of the cylinder with a larger diameter, so that the control component 4 can be accurately positioned.

[0061] The height of the positioning claw 232 is higher than that of the positioning column 231 . The positioning claw 232 is wedge-shaped. The end surface of the positioning claw 232 close to the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 23 is a plane and abuts against the control component 4 , so as to limit the control component 4 in the temperature control box seat 21 .

[0062] In another embodiment of the utility model, the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 23 is provided with a positioning column 231, the control component 4 is provided with a positioning hole 41 adapted to the positioning column 231, the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 23 is provided with a plurality of screw columns 234, the control component 4 is provided with a through hole adapted to the screw column 234, and the screw column 234 and the through hole are connected by screws. By connecting the control component 4 and the screw column 234 with screws, the control component 4 can be stably installed on the temperature control box seat 21, and the connection is firm and will not shake.

[0063] A plurality of wedge-shaped fixing claws 233 are provided on the inner walls of the two opposite sides of the accommodating cavity 23, and a fixing groove 221 adapted to the fixing claws 233 is provided on the outer wall of the temperature control box cover 22. The wedge-shaped fixing claws 233 facilitate guiding the outer wall of the temperature control box cover 22 into the temperature control box seat 21. The fixing claws 233 and the fixing grooves 221 cooperate to facilitate the rapid disassembly and assembly of the temperature control box cover 22 and the temperature control box seat 21.

[0064] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the utility model, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the utility model.
